“We couldn't be happier with our decision to have Paris as our dog’s companion! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she’s a true dog lover. She always shows up on time and is flexible with scheduling. Paris keeps us updated with delightful picture messages that show our pup basking in affection and enjoying playtime. Each photo radiates joy, confirming that our dog is in the best hands! Paris not only cares for our pet but seems to have genuinely connected with her.”

“Andrea was very easy going and helped us feel at ease about drop in visits. More importantly I feel like our puppy had fun because she was exhausted from her play visit. 10/10 would recommend.”

“Kathrine took great care of our kitties while we were gone for a 10 day trip. She visited them twice a day to do basic care but went above and beyond to keep them entertained and happy. She also combed them for fleas when a couple were discovered on them to keep them comfortable. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to any pet owner 😊”

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. In fact, I took my very first steps with a Rottweiler named Oso by my side! Growing up around these large breeds has helped me plenty with hands-on experience and confidence with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Over the years, I’ve cared for and loved several dogs, including a German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, and currently a Malinois mix and two husky mixes. I’m very familiar with the energy, exercise needs, and unique personalities that come with active breeds. While I have lots of experience with larger dogs, I absolutely adore small dogs too. I want make sure that every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient with shy or timid pups and always take the time to earn their trust at their own pace. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, running around, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m their new best friend ☺️. If you have a high-energy dog that needs to burn off some extra energy, I’m more than ready to help tire them out with plenty of exercise and fun 🤩 ! ❗️I’m available all weekdays and holidays! Although, i’m in college, studying Administration of Justice, and depends on my schedule for the semester since classes may vary on my availability. but it doesn’t mean i won’t make time for your babies! I do prefer for your animals to be treated at your home, because my dogs can be protective of our home and won’t want to put any animals in harms way.

“Angela did an amazing job of taking care of both my dogs; Cooper and Jasper. I’ll use her again in the future. Many thanks again!! =)”

“This was my first time using Rover and I found Zapphora. She set up a meet and greet. She was on-time and my cat took to her right away. Zap is very personable and easy to talk to. She communicated with me for each visit. I had her come 2 times a day for 4 days. My Kitty is my baby, I felt so comfortable knowing that Zap would be checking on her. I am thankful for Rover connecting me to her. I will definitely ask for her for any future travels. Thank you Zap!”

About: I have taken care of pets for neighbors and friends for years. I am experienced in giving animals medicine and love to take care of animals in need. I have volunteered at a wildlife rescue for years and have taken care of possums, squirrels, cats and all kinds of birds. I have experience with young cats and senior dogs and I am not afraid to get messy because that’s what animals do. I cannot walk dogs very well due to having hip problems but I can assure you your furry friend will be taken care of as if they are my own. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to care for my pets. I wake up around 6:30am every morning to let my chickens out of the coop so they can free roam through my backyard. I feed my starling, cockatiel and pigeon each separate diets. My cats eat dry food in the morning and wet food at night. My chickens go back in the coop at 6pm and I collect all the eggs they laid that day. The chickens get treats like blueberries and feeder fish throughout the day. I do not clip my birds wings so they are free to fly around the house and my cats are friendly to them. My yard is fenced off for my chickens to free roam during the day and I have 2 friendly cats that live in my backyard that catch rats and mice but are friendly to birds.

“Kaylie is great! She goes above and beyond….much appreciated!!”

“Megan is the best! Not only is she wonderful with my pup..she locks up house safe and communication is great and she even helped me out with a small household emergency! She even brought yummy treats too! I will be using her all summer ! So thankful my doggy has such a caring awesome sitter!”

“Aimee was fantastic with my senior cat. I was sure he was going to just hide the whole time I was gone, but she was patient and kind, and got him to come out to eat and get attention. I'm very grateful for the way Aimee took care of my boy.”

About: What sets me apart is my focus on personalized care. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and comfort needs so they feel safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m patient, communicative, and experienced handling dogs with different energy levels and temperaments, and I always keep owners updated with photos and check-ins for peace of mind. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and time to care for pets. I’m available most weekdays 2 PM- 7PM. I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and consistency in their routine. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like family. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions from owners. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable, supervised, and cared for at all times while keeping communication open with regular updates and photos.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that, I have an infinite amount of patience with pets, I often come off overly professional as far as training within the skills I have, lastly, why dog, puppy, cat, or kitten doesn’t need more love in their life? I actually don’t have any schedule restrictions. I have an entirely open schedule so feel free to book whenever you need. Home most of the time. How I care for pets in my clients home is making sure some type of physical activity occurs to ensure excellent physical health, as well as proper meal times (meal preps). Letting the clients pet do at least something that they find joy in (of course, something safe and harmless).

About: What sets me apart is my combination of professional training experience and genuine love for animals. With 11 years of pet sitting and 4 years as an assistant dog trainer, I’m experienced with puppies, senior pets, and dogs with unique needs. I understand pet behavior, can reinforce training, and always strive to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m a teacher, which means I have weekends, holidays, school breaks, and summers off, giving me plenty of flexibility for pet sitting. During the school year, I get home early and have ample time for evening visits, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and overnight care. I enjoy spending my free time with animals, so caring for pets never feels like work. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment for every pet in my care. I live in an apartment with a large, fully fenced patio that includes turf and cement, giving dogs a secure outdoor space for potty breaks, fresh air, and supervised play. I also have an extremely friendly and well-socialized dog who enjoys having canine companions and has experience living with foster dogs of all ages and personalities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions.

About: Pets are our ultimate pals, and ensuring they receive the care they deserve is my absolute passion! My hands-on expertise began when i was a kid in my father's pit bull kennel. I got to interact with our dogs for years, giving me truly unique skills in things like early socialization, dietary planning, and health protocols. I'm a highly active and hands-on caregiver—perfectly equipped to manage your high energy dogs with engaging exercise and social stimulation—while also providing the gentle, expert care needed for all life stages, from fragile newborn puppies to your cherished senior pets. I can confidently handle medication and specialized food plans, and I offer comprehensive cat care, including litter maintenance, socialization, and baths. I'm so excited to ensure your fur babies are happy, healthy, and just utterly spoiled! I work part-time as I stock my Etsy shop and consistently have free days during the week to spend pampering your pets! (I've just trained our family dogs to walk loose leash and I loved it!) Now I'm able to give them early morning walks and free up the rest of my day! When it comes to walking, I have a strict harness and lead leash policy, in which the harness leash is attached around my waist and the lead leash is snug around the pups neck and riding high near the ears. This ensures that your pup stays attentive during the first few walks so that we can learn how communicate with each other. Once good habits are established, I'll move into loose leash walking.

About: I've taken care of various pets over the years. Starting from when I got my own at the age of 9. Along with that I've taken care of pets that aren't my own and know how to care for them properly. There have been times I’ve had to care for sick pets and know how important it is to keep a closer eye on them when under the weather. I clean up after them as well as ensuring that they feel safe in their surroundings at all times. I want the best experience for your pet and I will do my best to ensure they enjoy the time they spend with me I'm currently a college student with a very flexible schedule. I'm sure free most days with just a few hours of class in between. I'm usually completely free on weekend. I have a love of walking and caring for pets but I like to be careful. I clean up after them and make sure to carry plenty of water and treats for our furry friends.
