About: Hi! I am a big dog lover and love caring for pets of all shapes and sizes! I know that every furry friend is unique. Whether it’s meals, playtime, walks or cuddles I aim to provide the best personalized care for your pet. I have extensive experience with dog care as I grew up with them and began caring for them at a young age. I am a full time graduate student. I am available mornings, afternoons and nights as well as full time on the weekends. Each semester gives me a different schedule but I generally have time for a lunch break to swing by and give some pets and a quick walk. Let me know what your pet needs and I will put in my best efforts to make it work! I do not have my own home available for sitting however I am comfortable staying overnight with your pet. I am flexible for you and your pets needs. Let me know your preferences and I will accompany them!
“Danielle always takes such great care of our cats, and goes above and beyond to make sure they get attention and playtime. She also sends the best pictures to keep us updated while we're away!”


About: I lost my own dogs a few years ago, so now I get my dog fix from other people‘s dogs. I take care of dogs like they are my own “children” which is how I referred to my own dogs. Many people have said I am a dog whisperer because I can get dogs to do things owners are not able to do. As I work full time, I make sure dogs get their daily exercise and lovings. While you are away, your dog(s) will be well taken care of with no worries. During the school year, I work full time from 7:30-4 Monday through Friday. I make sure animals have what they need before I leave for work and meet their needs when I return home. I am not able to come home in the middle of the day. During the summer break, I am available all day as I am not working full time. After learning the routine your animal(s) follow daily, l follow it to make sure they stay safe and healthy. I treat your pet(s) and home like it is my own.
About: I have had animals in my life ever since I was 4 years old. I've done extensive research on pets and what kind of care they prefer, what kind of diets are healthiest for them, and all the details that bridge the gap between their domestication and their primal instincts. I will provide loving care to dogs, cats, and other small animals like birds, hamsters, rabbits etc, and I will leave your house in just as good, if not better, condition than I found it! I work almost full time, but my schedule at work is very flexible, so I am available on weekdays and weekends. I can take animals on walks if needed, or just be there to feed them and let them out daily. I am very flexible in terms of what services I offer, as it depends on what services you need! I can come and petsit at your house, and I can even spend the night if you just don't want your fluffy friends to get lonely. I can board for certain pets but not all, so it is best to message me directly about what you are looking for!
About: I have cared for pets of my own and for neighbors and friends for years. I am comfortable with different sizes and temperaments. I also have experience caring for diabetic dogs, including consistent feeding schedules and medication. I am home from college for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I can provide consisten walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. On walks, I prioritize safety by staying attentive, avoiding unsafe situations, and making sure dogs get the exercise and care they need at a pace that is comfortable for them. Caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping routine with animals and keeping the owners updated while they are away.
“Krista is amazing! She took such great care of my babies while I was away, and she was very communicative. I appreciate all the pics and updates of my dogs having fun while I'm away working. I'm so happy to have found Krista after my last sitter moved away. 100% recommend!”


“Jessica was great! I informed her my dog wasn’t the friendliest with new people or dogs and she didn’t waver- instead she had a great vibe when working with my dog and made my dog the calmest I’ve experienced with rover sitters. Would 100% use her again!”
“We are so grateful for the care Oliana provided for our sweet kitty, Sybil. Oliana sent pictures every day which helped ease our minds while we were away. She was also very easy to communicate with. We will definitely book with Oliana again!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter while we were away for two weeks! She took such terrific care of our cat and gave us complete peace of mind the entire time. She was attentive, reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about our cat's comfort and well-being. We loved receiving updates and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Marissa came by our house to check on/take care of our cat while we were out of town for 10 days! She made sure he got lots of love and gave him treats and cuddles. She even took him outside in our backyard which I know he appreciated. She did an amazing job and we will be booking with her again.”

About: I’ve loved dogs and cats my whole life! I have always helped friends and family care for their pets also. Love animals so much! I am a retired teacher and currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I have always had pets and truly love being around animals. A few years ago, I lost my wonderful dog, Allie, and since then I have cared for friends’ pets, both dogs and cats, which I have really enjoyed and found very rewarding. I enjoy caring for pets in their own home and familiar environment. I follow all instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special requests. I treat both your pet and your home with great respect, keeping everything clean, safe, and secure. I truly care about each animal and give them plenty of attention, companionship, and loving care. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and connected while you’re away.
