“Our Maya had the greatest experience! She tends to be scared of new people, and this was the first time we have done a home visit with rover and Kalie was AMAZING. She gave Maya so much love and attention. We will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”
“Christina did an awesome job checking in with my cat and dog while I was out of town for work. She sent me photos and updates and my shy-at-first cat quickly warmed to her.”
“Wojciech took great care of our dog Nutella while we were at a wedding. This was our first time having a drop in visit in our home. He was super responsive and kept us updated on how much she ate and made sure she went to the bathroom. Nutella definitely appreciated the long walk as well! We will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Emily took such great care of my cat. He had a potential health scare while I was away and was showing a lot of anxiety. Emily handled the unexpected issues so well and communicated everything with a lot of detail to help me understand the situation, including doing a video call. I would definitely recommend her for taking care of your pet!”
“Abbie is the best! She took such great care of my two cats. She is so kind and respectful. Great communicator and sent lots of updates/pictures. I came home to happy cats and a tidy apartment :)”
“Our dog Theo (Pomeranian) has moderate separation anxiety issues, so it comes to no surprise that we were very worried about how he was going to handle being away from us for multiple days for the first time. Amanda went above and beyond our expectations with punctual, thorough updates that brought us peace of mind during our trip. Thank you Amanda!! ♥”
“Katelynn did an excellent job caring for my three cats, including one who is especially shy and slow-to-warm-up. Her communication was great and we received plenty of cute photos while we were away 😊”
“Caroline is the best! She was super sweet and took perfect care of our Camille. She answers messages quickly and you can just tell she treats your pet exactly like it was her own. Will definitely be contacting her in the future for our pet sitting needs! ❤️”
“Danielle is a wonderful pet sitter who took superb care of Java while I was away. Last minute, Java was prescribed medicine and Danielle was able to give Java his meds without problem while I was gone. My heart felt at ease with Java in Danielle’s care!”

“This is the second time we’ve worked with Megan - she always provides regular updates so we can see how the animals are doing while we’re away and our animals really like her!”
“Sarah visited my Dorothy cat every morning and always made sure I knew she was there with pictures and updates. In the past when I was away Dorothy would stress and over groom herself. Not this time. Sarah bonded so well with her and Dorothy was relaxed and happy. I will surely want Sarah to care for her again if I am away for awhile.”
“Did an absolutely great job taking care of my cat who needed daily medication and lots of cuddles. Communicative and professional! Very grateful for their love and care looking after my fur baby.”
“She is an amazing sitter! If I could give her 6/5 stars I would. She was so friendly and sent sweet messages and photos during her visits. Her love for animals showed. I could tell that she really enjoyed caring for my 100 lb Dane! (He actually might like her more than me now!)”
About: I’ve spent the last 11+ years caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including large breeds, puppies, seniors, and dogs with behavioral quirks. I regularly foster, so I’m used to working with new personalities and helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved in unfamiliar environments. I’m confident handling leash-reactive dogs and know how to keep walks calm and under control. Whether it’s drop-in’s, structured walks, or giving your dog attention/enrichment while you’re away, I bring patience, experience, and genuine care to every visit. I work from home for the majority of the week and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available for morning, mid-day, and evening drop-ins. My weekend schedule is open as well. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow your instructions carefully, respect your space, and always keep safety top of mind. On walks, I stay alert and calm, making sure your pup gets both exercise and positive attention, at their pace.

I was very happy with the care that Tina offered my cat Annie. She sent pictures everyday and I could see that my cat, Sadie was loving the care that Tina provided. I would definitely use her again. Tina was dependable and communicative, and I was able to relax on my vacation knowing that Sadie was being well taken care of.
She’s an amazing sitter!!! I completely trusted Katelynn to watch my two babies while I was out of town for the week. She sent lots of wonderful photos and did a great job keeping me posted on them. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter!
Megan was an incredible help walking and feeding our dog while we were away for a week! Her check ins were regular and detailed, and when I messed up the days I needed her she added on an extra day with no complaints. I would 1000% use megan again for the care of our dogs. Thank you megan !!
I cannot recommend Shanika enough! She was an absolute lifesaver while caring for my cat, Freddy. Freddy is normally very shy and skittish around new people, but he warmed up to Shanika so quickly — which says a lot about her gentle, patient, and caring nature. I also had quite a few last-minute schedule changes, and she was so flexible, understanding, and accommodating throughout it all. She went above and beyond to make sure Freddy felt safe, loved, and well cared for. If you’re looking for someone who is not only trustworthy and reliable but also truly has a gift with animals, Shanika is the one. She’s simply the best!
Emily took such great care of my cat. He had a potential health scare while I was away and was showing a lot of anxiety. Emily handled the unexpected issues so well and communicated everything with a lot of detail to help me understand the situation, including doing a video call. I would definitely recommend her for taking care of your pet!
Lindsey was simply amazing. I was nervous leaving my 1 1/2 year old cat with my older cats alone while we were away, and Lindsey was the best at easing my anxiety! She takes superb pictures, genuinely cares about your kitties and even picks up the place so you don't come home to a messy place. I will be a returning customer and I cannot wait to use her again!!! Thanks Lindsey :) <3
