“Gianna started walking my dog weekly about a month ago. I went back and forth as to whether or not I wanted to hire someone given my dog’s reactivity on walks. I could not be happier with our choice to have Gianna!! She is responsible, communicative, patient and kind. My dog is noticeably happier when I get home, and it feels like a huge weight is off our shoulders to know he is being cared for by someone who cares for and loves him like I do. I can’t recommend her enough!!”


About: Hello, I’m new to the app and am looking to make some furry friends! I am a true dog lover and enjoy adapting to each dog’s personality and needs. I’m a very active person who loves being outdoors, so I’m always happy to go on long walks, play, and keep energetic dogs engaged. At the same time, I’m patient and calm, which helps dogs feel comfortable and relaxed. Whether your dog wants an adventure or just a companion to hang out with, I’m happy to be exactly what they need. As a recent college grad, I currently have a very flexible schedule, and I am taking some time during the summer before starting the next chapter of my career pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and being outdoors whether it’s going for walks playing or simply keeping a pet company care for animals is something I find rewarding and look forward to. When caring for pets, I like to follow the routine they are already used to so they feel safe and comfortable. I thrive with structure, so I appreciate clear instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications for feeding, or any special needs. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in their home, my goal is to be present, attentive, and give them the care they need.
“Alena is very personable, responsible and flexible. She came to walk Bentley while I was at work and did a great job! If I had to pick a prototype of an ideal pet sitter, it would be her.”

About: What Sets Me Apart I offer more than just a standard check-in or walk—I bring a lifetime of genuine animal love combined with specialized, hands-on experience to ensure your pets are safe, happy, and completely understood. Here is what makes my care unique: Senior & Special Needs Expertise: I have a deep understanding of senior pet care. Whether it’s managing medication schedules, recognizing subtle signs of discomfort, or just providing the extra patience and gentle pacing that older pets deserve, your senior companions are in incredibly safe hands. Puppy Training & Energy Management: Navigating the puppy phase requires consistent structure. I love working with young dogs to reinforce basic training, maintain potty routines, and channel all that amazing puppy energy into positive, healthy habits. Multi-Pet & Diverse Species Experience: My home is a sanctuary for all kinds of animals. From handling high-energy dogs and independent cats to caring for unique exotic pets like geckos, I understand the distinct body language and routine requirements of a truly diverse range of species. When your pets are with me, they aren't just being watched—they are being treated with the same deep respect, attentiveness, and family-level care that I give to my own. Pet care isn't just a side task for me—it’s seamlessly woven into the fabric of my daily and weekly structure. Because my routine centers around a flexible, home-based schedule, I am able to provide the consistent, attentive, and highly reliable care that pets thrive on. Here is how I integrate dedicated pet care into my routine: A Natural Part of My Day: Managing a busy, active household means I am already completely dialed into strict daily routines. Feeding schedules, fresh water refills, and multiple potty breaks are second nature to me and easily sync with your pet's specific internal clock. Built-in Movement and Fresh Air: I value keeping active and getting outside. Daily walks and high-energy playtime aren't chores—they are highlights of my schedule that allow me to give your dog the exercise, mental stimulation, and neighborhood exploration they need. Meticulous Environmental Care: Just as I maintain high standards for my own surroundings, keeping a spotless pet environment is part of my regular weekly rhythm. Daily litter box scooping, deep-cleaning food bowls, and organizing pet areas are deeply embedded in my normal cleaning habits. Evenings and Weekends for Quality Time: When the daytime rush winds down, my evenings and weekends are dedicated to winding down, too. This is when I love providing the quiet companionship, gentle grooming, and couch cuddles that keep pets feeling safe, loved, and part of the family while you're away. Because my life is set up to balance multiple priorities smoothly, your pet receives structured, dependable care without me ever having to rush their routine. Care in My Home (Boarding & Daycare) When pets stay with me, they aren't kept in isolation—they become part of a structured, lively, and highly attentive household. Seamless Integration: I run my daily business from home, which means your pet enjoys constant human presence and supervision. They are integrated right into our daily rhythm of work, play, and relaxation. A Sanctuary for All Personalities: My home is designed to accommodate different comfort levels. If your dog loves a pack environment, they will have plenty of company. If they prefer a quiet corner to decompress, I have dedicated, cozy spaces where they can rest undisturbed. A Safe, Social Environment: With experienced resident pets of my own, I am highly skilled at managing animal dynamics. Introductions are always handled slowly and safely, ensuring everyone feels secure and respected in the space. Care in Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-Ins) If your pet prefers the comfort of their own walls, my priority is maintaining absolute consistency, security, and cleanliness while you are away. Flawless Routine Replication: I follow your specific instructions to the letter. Whether it’s feeding at an exact timestamp, following a precise walking route, or administering medication, I ensure your pet's internal clock and habits aren't disrupted. Respecting Your Space: I treat your home with the utmost respect. In addition to keeping your pets happy, I ensure their environment stays pristine—handling meticulous litter box maintenance, keeping feeding areas spotless, and making sure everything looks exactly how you left it. Security and Peace of Mind: You will receive regular updates, photos, and quick communication so you never have to wonder how things are going. I also keep a vigilant eye on the security of your home, ensuring doors are locked, mail is brought in if requested, and the property is secure.

About: I've been caring for puppies and dogs for family members and friends for several years. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic medications when needed, maintaining routines, and providing lots of attention and affection. I've cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, including young puppies that require extra patience, supervision, and consistency. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so both pets and owners can feel at ease. I’m currently working a part-time throughout the week. My preferred times are 9am-2pm to take walks, feed, playtime, or medication. Staying overnight shifts, I would love to know 3 days in advance for planning. Also my hours for house sitting is 7pm-next morning mostly Friday - Sunday. Weekdays is a little hectic for me but if it fits my schedule or something changed, we can figure something out, just send a message! Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment and closely follow each pet's routine and care instructions. I offer regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are receiving attentive, loving care in a safe and comfortable setting. 🐾
“Very happy with Josh & Andres. I have 2 large dogs, one is leash reactive, and they’re both a bit fear aggressive, Josh & Andres manage them well, and I am always confident they’re in good hands with them. I don’t let just anyone walk them. Josh & Andres communicate well and keep me up to date. Highly recommend.”

About: I have many years experience with pets including volunteering for a dog rescue in my youth as well as owning pets myself. I have a 19 year background in healthcare but I love playing with and cuddling dogs/cats so I’m looking for that extra work and time with pets. I’m responsible and on time.

On Monday’s and Thursday’s I’m available from 9am-3pm and weekends I can do 8am-7pm. More days to come depending on need. Looking forward to meeting your furry babies. I’m currently working part time, So I’m available to walk or visit your pets on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Looking forward to hearing from you. I prefer to take care of pets in your home. I will crate train and can do light cleaning. I can walk your pet(s) and administer medication and/feed. I will also transport your pet to the vet/groomer.
About: I have always loved being around dogs and being able to make sure their needs are met completely. Although I have only owned one dog I have been around different dogs from a young age. I trained my own dog as a puppy but I have family who have owned pit bulls, cane corsos, husky’s, etc. Animals and dogs have become a passion of mine and making sure they are living the best life they possibly can. I’m currently a bio major college student with completely open weekend times along with some weekday times. Tuesdays after 2:30 pm, Thursdays between 7 am to 10 am and after 2:30 PM, and Fridays starting at 11 AM. I understand the responsibility of the job and meeting your pets needs along with keeping them safe will always be the top priority. I also understand how hard it is to trust someone with your pet so I will also take pictures and videos to help making you feel comfortable while your away. Throughout my time I will make sure the pets feel as safe as possible and make sure they are getting the proper attention, care, and supervision.
“Naedra helped us out last minute. She was super easy to communicate with. She took great care of our puppy, taking him on two walks each day. She sent pictures and filled us in on everything. We really appreciated her helping us and will definitely use her again!”


About: I grew up in a house with two cats, a dog, and even a few pet rats. Currently I have two indoor cats and a variety of wildlife that my roommates tell me I am allowed to feed but not allowed to bring inside. I have a little bit of experience with caring for reptiles, birds, and one hedgehog in addition to the more traditional pets. I find that I am particularly popular with large, energetic dogs who enjoy playing with someone "their own size" and anxious critters who need lots of reassurance. I recently completed graduate school and currently have lots of time to provide love, exercise, medication, and whatever else your furry friend may need while you are away. As an in-home sitter I always make sure to get complete instructions on where pets can or cannot go in the house/yard, approved treats, and any medication schedules along with vet information in case of emergencies.
“Jenn is great! She kept us well informed about the dog walk with Ashton. I always appreciate her quick response and great communication skills. We will definitely book Jenn again for walking Ashton!”

About: I grew up around dogs my whole life. Always loved them and loved taking care of them. From puppies to brown dogs, i’ve seen it all. I work and do school remote from home so pet care fits perfect. Taking care of dogs will get me more active and I love a good walk or jog. I treat each pet as if they are my own. With the same love and care I give my dog. Once they come to me they are home.
About: 15 years of own pet care experience. I have cared for pets and volunteered on animal shelters before. I own a frenchie boy who is very calm , never barks and loves to eat. If needed on a case by case basis I can arrange to have your baby in my care alone :) Loved animals since little. I will love your pet like its my own. I’m a civil engineer with a frenchie pup working from home! Dog-walking or pet sitting will be a smooth addition to my daily routine that your pup and I will enjoy! Meet and greets needed for dog sitting. Will send you photos or text to let you know how your pet is doing! Please let me know of any fears your pup has. I typically let my dog sleep my couch or bed but will ask for permission first.
About: Hi, my name is Ama and I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I recently lost my own senior pup, and I truly miss the companionship and joy that dogs bring. I’d love to open my home to your furry friend and give them the love, care, and attention they deserve while you’re away. Your dog will be treated like family, with plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and a cozy spot to relax. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and everything in between, including administering medication. Let me know how I can make your pup’s stay as comfortable and happy as possible. I can’t wait to meet them! I currently work on a hybrid schedule, so I’m in the office 1 to 2 days per week Monday through Friday. It really depends on the week and what’s needed. I’m a great communicator so we can decide which days might work best! I live a very active lifestyle and before my dog passed away recently, I would take her on 3 to 4 walks per day. There’s a park near my home and we also used to play catch and lay out in the sun.
About: I’ve always been an animal person and have helped care for my family’s dogs and cats for the last 16 years in addition to working in animal care for the last 2 years. I have experience working in a dog boarding facility and have volunteered to foster 6 puppies over the last year until they each were adopted by a loving family. I adopted my own cattle dog mix, Zoe, 4 years ago at 4 months old and worked with a trainer for over one year to train her as my service dog. She is now a task-trained service dog and accompanies me to college classes. Availability for Daycare and Boarding 2026-27: December 19th-26th, January 4th-26th Also available for Daycare on the following Sundays: 10/25 11/1 11/8 11/22 11/29 12/6 12/13 I am currently a college student and will be on winter break from December 19th, 2026 - January 26th, 2027. Since I won’t have any classes to attend, I can spend all day with your pet! I have plenty of time for walks and play times! I can also let them outside in the fenced backyard for potty breaks whenever they need. I have a large, fenced-in front and back yard with 3 miles of public wooded trails connecting to my neighborhood, as well as two miles of sidewalk inside my neighborhood for walks. I am able to do as long or short of a walk as your dog needs. My 4 year old cattle dog, Zoe, loves to play and is very friendly with all other dogs and cats. Zoe is with me most of the time whereas my cats will come and go around the house (and are kept separate from visiting dogs). I will shape my day around caring for your pet so they get as much activity and attention as they need!

“Theresa is amazing! So happy she was willing to help with my lovely dog who has a lot of energy and can be reactive on walks. She was able to tend to his needs and be accommodating. So happy to find her!”

About: I have been taking care of my husband’s family’s 3 cats for over five years now. They have made me fall in love them. We finally took the plunge in two years ago and adopted our own fur baby, a little tuxedo cat named Winnie! I also volunteer at the local animal shelter, providing love comfort and help to animals looking for their new forever homes. I love playing with dogs and taking them on nice long walks! Please note, I am not taking on recurring services at the moment. I would be happy to take a dog on a nice exercise walk at the end of the day, potentially with some toys to play with too! I would love to sit with your cat and give it some nice brushes and mice to chase. On Rover, I have taken care of cats, dogs, a bird and a horse. I am really open to any furry friend that needs some company! Your pet is my pet. I ensure the safety and security of your pet as if it is my own. Feel free to share other information that makes you feel most comfortable🙂

Alissa is so great with our energetic and playful pup, and he absolutely adores her! She always helps us when we are in a pinch, and we’re so grateful to have found her. She’s responsible, communicative and conscientious. And very competent with all our dogs’ quirky behaviors!

Julia, I want to thank you for stepping up and helping us when another walker had a family emergency starting the first day of the booking. Moxie enjoyed your company and attention and I was able to complete a business transaction without the distraction of worrying about Moxies's welfare. Good Job!
