About: I bring over 15 years of pet care experience. With a background in management and a business finance student, I am highly dependable, detail oriented, and calm under pressure. I have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages and I’m great with adjusting my approach depending on the dogs body language and needs. I treat every dog like my best friend because they are. From playtime to regular walks, I ensure each dog feels safe and loved. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make time for it in my regular schedule. I plan around my rover commitments to ensure I’m not overbooked or rushed. Every dog deserves quality attention and I ensure that happens. I do work a full time job so my availability can vary on time of day. If you need a specific time of day don’t hesitate to reach out. In a clients home, I respect your space and routines exactly as requested. I follow care instructions closely, keep things tidy and make sure that your pet is happy. I provide ample updates and photos to keep pet parents confident and at ease knowing their furry friend is safe and taken care of.

“Caroline helped us watch Jj with short notice. She was very professional, worked with us when we were a little unorganized, and generally impressed us with her willingness to meet our needs. We highly recommend her.”


About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was little, around 11 years old, but have lived with cats since I was 2 years old. I do have a senior cat, and ferret. Im experienced in giving cats, dogs and ferrets medication for health issues they have had in the past. I’m not expert in everything, but I’m not afraid to learn! I’m currently working full time, but enjoy a busy schedule and a good routine. If I need a specific day off, I can work it out. I’ve been working since I was 14, it has made me more responsible, reliable, and determined. I have two cats, and one ferret, I'm fully responsible for them. I take care of their daily care, vet visits, trim their nails, give them baths, and everything in between. They have been under my care for more than 5 years. I’ve had experience with rodents, birds, and dogs.

About: Hello, my name is Rylie! I am such a dog lover! Although I never owned one myself, I enjoy taking care of others to fill that void. I have been dog sitting since I was about 10 years old for multiple neighbors. Many would describe me as responsible and passionate since a very young age. I even attended many dog training classes for a puppy I babysat for two years. I am excited to continue my journey of taking care of dogs and other animals and ensure that owners will have enjoy time away without any stresses. I have lots of available time throughout the day to take pets on walks, feed, and check up on. I can ensure you that your pets are my top priority. The first and last thing I do before leaving a client’s house is checking the perimeters of the house to make sure assure there were no accidents made. I make sure there’s nothing your pets can get a hold of and chew on while I am taking care of them.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, including dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes, cats, fish, and even ducks! I have a deep love for animals and always treat them like family. My experience includes everything from high energy puppies to senior pets who need extra attention. I understand that every animal is different, so I tailor my care to meet their unique needs. Whether that means following a specific feeding schedule, giving medication, or making sure they get plenty of play and cuddles. I’m reliable, attentive, and passionate about making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule and work from home specific days during the week, which gives me the flexibility to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and in-home care on weekdays and weekends. Whether it’s a walk or overnight care, I make sure your pets get the time and attention they need! I tailor my care to meet your needs, whether that’s walking your dog, stopping by for check-ins, or staying overnight in your home. If your pet stays with me, they’ll have access to a fenced yard and will be kept company by my roommate’s friendly dog, Maggie. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust, and I’m committed to making your pet feel right at home, wherever that may be.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I have cared for them when they have been at there very best and worst and given them the most love. I’m currently a senior in high school but I only go for a couple hours a day. I also work part time at before and after care. I’m mostly looking for times to fill in during my free time, including during break and over the summer. I will make sure that everything thing is safe in the area for that pet. And they have everything they need during my time with them.

“If I could have given Rebecca more stars I would have. I was leaving my almost 16 yr old dog for a week (a vacation booked a year in advance and to be honest I didn't think I would need a pet sitter) . Chance has mobility and cognitive issues and we hadn't been apart overnight from each other in years. Rebecca came and met myself and Chance. She was very open and asked questions to understand Chance's needs and my wants in terms of care. She was FANTASTIC!!! She was meticulous about his schedule and care. I told her if she had any ideas to improve his life to let me know and she did have a few suggestions that have helped. She stayed in touch with texts and pictures throughout the week. My house was in as good if not better condition than when I left. Chance gained back the 2 pounds he had recently lost before the trip as well as an extra pound. I can't recommend Rebecca highly enough. She truly cares and loves your pet as if they are her own. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again.”


About: I have had dogs ever since I was little but didn't start being able truly experience the responsibility of taking care of dogs until about 12. Caring for my dogs has served as a great example throughout my life of showing me patience, unconditional love, and loyalty. Over the years I have had 6 dogs with 3 being the ones that I was old enough to care for. All of them with their individual, outgoing personalities have been a joy in my life. A stand out experience I've had with my dogs, has to be currently with caring for my elderly and sickly dog, Yoshi. He is a 10-year-old Husky-Akita who has an autoimmune disease called Pemphigus Vulgaris which severely affects his skin. Out of my family of 4, I have been his primary caretaker; administering his medicine when he was on it, researching different remedies to help him, bathing him to soothe his irritated & itchy skin, making him a natural ointment to treat his wounds, and changing his diet off of dry dog food to a medley of Freshpet dog food and steamed vegetables. Although the process is trying, I see him as God's animal and I feel I've been given the responsibility to care and love him unconditionally as animals were made to do the same for us. I am a freelance graphic designer who works from home so I have open availability to provide animal care. Mostly available Sun-Fri, Limited availability on Saturdays I have a small yard but live in a housing development that is dog friendly with lots of sidewalks and trails that provide dog waste trashcans. Besides walking, I provide feeding, brushing, bathing, administering ointment or medication, and lots of love and attention.
