“Jaime is an excellent house sitter and dog caregiver. Cooper loved him. He was very thoughtful in taking care of the house and even pitched in on a chore or two that was above and beyond. Checked in as requested. Highly recommend.”

“Allison came to us in our moment of NEED. I had never used rover before but we got stuck while out of town and had no one to watch our fur babies. So thankful to have found Allison and when we got home, all three of them were SO happy!! Allison was so attentive to all of their needs and made sure to ask any and all questions as they arose. She sent us pics and videos everyday, which really put our minds at ease. Allison is now our go-to dog sitter and house sitter when we leave home. Don’t even go to anyone else’s profile. Allison is as far as you need to go!!”

“Parker was prompt and reliable! He showed up and stayed at our home with our 2 dogs for 3 days. He sent us a few photos of our dogs. He also accepted a delivery we were expecting. The dogs seemed happy when we returned. No problems. We will book Parker again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the deep respect, love, and attention I give every animal in my care. I truly believe animals show us how to love, live in the moment, and connect with the world around us. Because of that, I see caring for pets as more than a job — it’s a responsibility I take seriously and a relationship I genuinely value. My dedication to their care, comfort, and protection makes me a strong advocate for their joy and safety. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, routine, and emotional needs so they feel secure, understood, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience caring for pets of all ages and temperaments, including energetic young pets who need patience, consistency, and exercise, as well as senior pets who benefit from gentleness, extra monitoring, slower walks, medication support, and calm companionship. Whether a pet wants to play, cuddle, explore, or simply rest quietly nearby, I adapt to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is always to create a peaceful, loving environment where pets are treated like family and owners feel complete peace of mind. Every day starts with pets first. The morning begins with fresh water, a snack if needed, and then straight outside to the fenced backyard for a potty break. For dogs, the next part of the routine is one of my favorites — a 3–4 mile walk to help them get exercise, stimulation, and a happy start to their day. After the walk, we settle in for breakfast if that’s part of their routine. Because I’m home throughout the day, pets are never left without attention for long. While I’m cleaning, kitchen prepping, or working around the house, I take frequent breaks for cuddles, playtime, and backyard visits. Whether it’s dogs or cats, I make sure every pet gets regular affection, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I truly enjoy creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. I care with attention, intention and detail. I check in often and spend time just sitting with and talking to. I give So much LOVE.
“Sophia came right on time! She brought her dog along the stay because I have told her it was fine and it makes it easier on my dogs when it comes to other humans! Moo and my dogs got along so well, he apparently didn’t want to go. ? I’m glad I found my dogs a new friend and a trustworthy dog sitter! Would totally book her again.”

About: I have been around dogs and cats my entire life and have always had pets in my home since I was a child. I truly love all animals and feel very comfortable caring for pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities. ❤️ I currently have my own dog, so I understand daily routines, responsibility, and how important it is for pets to feel safe, happy, and loved. I started dog sitting for family members around age 15, caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments, including feeding, walking, playtime, and overnight stays. This gave me hands on experience maintaining routines and understanding different pet personalities. I am also comfortable administering basic medications such as oral pills and topical treatments, always following owner instructions carefully. I worked at PetSmart as a dog bather, where I gained experience safely bathing dogs, handling different coat types, and keeping pets calm and comfortable during grooming. This helped me develop patience, gentle handling skills, and the ability to read animal behavior. I treat every pet like my own and focus on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment. I’m reliable, attentive, and provide regular updates and photos so pet parents feel at ease. 🐶🐱🫶🏻 I work full time, but I’m available for weekday walks and weekend pet sitting when you need someone to care for your pets while you’re away. 🩷 A typical day in my care is calm, relaxed, and focused on making pets feel comfortable and loved. I enjoy spending time with them throughout the day, whether that’s relaxing together, watching TV, or simply keeping them company so they don’t feel alone. 🥹 I make sure to follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I also take time for enrichment and exercise, whether that’s playing outside, going for walks, or engaging them with toys. For pets who enjoy it, I also offer plenty of affection and cuddles, while always respecting their boundaries and letting them set the pace. My goal is to create a safe, low stress environment where they feel happy, secure, and cared for. ❤️

About: I’ve been a pet owner for 20 years and have owned dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. Since I was young I was always the primary caregiver for my pets. I would bathe, clean, groom, feed, and clean up after my pets. I’d make sure their areas were clean and safe, they had their water bowls filled and that they were fed good food. I’d walk them, run with them, play with them and make sure they were safe and sound. I am currently available every morning from 7:00 am until midday to walk your pets. I am available in the afternoons for boarding and other services. I have a safe home with room for small/medium dogs and cats. I have no fenced yard at the moment but I have a large dog run to allow dogs to go out for a restroom break/fresh air and they are allowed to be inside my home in the living room areas. I have kennels in the home that are routinely cleaned where they can rest at night.
About: I have taken care of several pets throughout the years since I was a child. I like to form bonds rather than just feed the babies! Any special requests I’m more than willing to care for them as I’m a nurse and it’s in my nature :) I’m currently a single mother of a 6 year old son. He’s very careful and an animal lover! We follow directions and send updates frequently I understand each pet has a specific need as does any human. I am willing to learn each need and personality of each of your loved ones until they get their parents back 😃
“Kristen did an amazing job cat-sitting my two cats! From the moment we met, she was friendly, responsible, and clearly a genuine animal lover. She took great care of my cats, keeping me updated with photos and messages so I knew they were happy and relaxed. When I got home, everything was spotless, and my cats were calm and content — a sure sign they were well cared for. I’d absolutely recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again next time I’m away!”
