“Angela was great with my older dog stopping in for visits. It was clear from photos they had fun and got plenty of love and care. Professional, timely and easy to communicate with - will definitely reach out again for her.”


“A wonderful couple who went above and beyond caring for our fur-babies. I truly appreciated them for cleaning up “accidents” caused by the animals, most people would’ve left it. The care you showed our Pit Bull baby Max lol, touched me and him obviously. Definitely will be using them again in the future.”


“Brigit was wonderful!! She sent pics of my dog , stayed in communication, left the home pristine and returned the key without incident. My dog was so happy to have her around and so was I ! Would definitely recommend her and would be thrilled to have her visit us again.”


“Hossanna has watched my 3 cats several times now! She does a fabulous job. She lets me know they are okay when I’m gone, so I don’t have to worry. She’s always very polite as well. I would highly recommend her!!”


“My cat adored Ali. They played and cuddled, and of course Ali fed her well and groomed her and took good care of her and the house. She reliably kept her appointments for two weeks and sent me great photos and messages twice a day. I will absolutely use Ali's services again!”


“Justine was great. She was very communicative and gave me frequent health updates. She routinely asked if there was anything more she could do. I felt I could trust her and will use her again for future trips.”


“Danielle was very compassion and caring with my little pup! She follows instructions very well and is easy to communicate with! Will be reaching out again to have her visit my pup! Thank you!”


About: I have many years of caring for all types of dogs. I have worked with puppies, seniors, reactive/fearful dogs, and working/high energy breeds. I am always up for learning and researching new techniques and skills when it comes to dogs. I have fostered dogs through my local animal shelter for many years which has given me a lot of experience with rescues. I’ve fostered nursing litters, young puppies, and adult dogs with great success! I am always excited to meet new dogs and learn their personalities and quirks so that I can care for them in a way that works best for the dog! I am newly unemployed and dedicating my time to caring for dogs! My schedule is generally pretty flexible, which leaves me time to care for your pets in a way that works for you and your dog! I live in a home with a fenced in yard where dogs can play! I have one dog named Olive, and she is the best with fosters we bring into our home. She will take the lead of other dogs and can play for hours, or just hangout calmly and give space to nervous dogs. I believe in crate training and find it very useful for multi dog households, but if your dog isn’t crate trained we can figure something out! Mental and physical stimulation is one of the most important things for dogs, so I incorporate walks, brain games, and structure whenever necessary! I believe that each dog is unique, so I like to follow their lead in terms of what they require to be fulfilled!

About: For over 14 years, I cared for two deeply loved dogs - Charlie and Indiana - through every stage of their lives, including special diets, medications, and the realities of aging. I’ve handled everything from leash pulling to pet reactivity, separation anxiety to senior care, and understand how unique each animal’s needs can be. Since losing both of them, I’ve felt the pull to keep sharing that care. I know firsthand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet - it brings peace when you’re away. I’ve been that person for family and friends for years, and I’d be honored to be that for you, too. In addition to providing a fun and safe environment, I have two goals when pet sitting: 1. Providing care that feels like home, even when you’re away 2. Becoming your pet’s second favorite person! I work remotely with a relatively flexible schedule. I will be home with your pet the entire workday, making walks, potty breaks and snuggles easy! I can typically cater the rest of my schedule to your pet’s needs as well. They’re the priority when I’m sitting ❤️ I know how important it is to give each pet the unique care they need. Following your care instructions and preferences is my guarantee. No matter your pet’s age, size or needs, they will be safe, snuggled and secure in the way that suits them best.

“Greg has done several drop ins including one at the very last minute. He is 100% reliable and I completely trust that he will be here when he says he will be here. The dogs appear comfortable and relaxed around him. Thank you Greg!”


“Geneva was fantastic with my kitties! She was super responsive and knowledgeable. I felt super comfortable leaving my cats to her for the holidays. Even my cat who is skiddish warmed up quickly to her! Highly recommend for anyone who wants an attentive and friendly sitter. Thanks, Geneva!!”


“Rhiannon was wonderful (this was our second time working with her) -- our cat loves her! We so appreciated the videos and photos while we were away. Thank you!”


“Melanie is thoughtful, kind and conscientious! Our pack is so happy to see her and also match her calm and caring demeanor. We are so grateful to have Melanie a part of our pack!”


About: I have worked and volunteered at an animal shelter and provided care and enrichment for all ages of dogs from babies to seniors. I have loved every dog I've ever met even the ones who have bitten me or are misunderstood. I have seen dogs grow up and I have seen dogs pass away. I have been the reason dogs have been adopted and given a second chance. I have even taken dogs off the streets and foster-failed (adopted) dogs who were in shelters. I have never loved something more and have only ever wanted to work with dogs. I truly can't think of anything I would rather do then be with a dog. I promise to love your dog as if it was mine. I am currently not working and will walk at any time of day within a consistent schedule. I will be on vacation in July from the 15-22. I don't like doing payment through Rover and my base charge is 15/per visit with +5 of any other pet not including other dogs. I would prefer to only walk dogs and visit at owners home. I could not board them as I only live in an apartment that has restrictions.

About: I pet sat dogs when I was younger and cats for years. I have more time now and would love to give your babies a lot of attention. 🐶 😺 I currently work from home Sunday, Tues and Thursday, with a LOT of flexibility. I am available overnight 7 days per week with little notice and can adapt to your pets needs. I can care for pets in your home and follow your rules and your pets needs as directed. I'm an adult with a grown kiddo who also loves animals and can give extra attention! ❤️
