“Laura was fantastic with my 2 pups. My booking was very last minute (the night before service) and she still made the effort to come do and do a meet and greet the night before. 10/10 will be using her again!”

“Deanna was very kind and affectionate towards the babies…took pictures and let me know if she needed to administer topical spray to a boo boo on my dog - overall very pleased with this experience and would recommend DeAnna to others.”

“Maegan B was excellent! I felt reassured by her from her first message. She is firm with our dogs and loving, which is what we wanted. If there was a problem, she handled it to the best of her abilities, which saved me stress. I was very comfortable with her in our home, and the dogs warmed up to her quickly. As a pet owner, I have dreaded going out of town. I do not have to worry about that anymore.”

“Lauryn is wonderful! Kind, considerate, friendly, punctual and very trustworthy! She did an excellent job taking care of our donkeys, goats and dogs. Our donkey Rose only likes me, but Rose formed an instant bond with Lauryn and let Lauryn pet her and hand-feed her. I would highly recommend Lauryn to anyone needing pet care. We are booking her again in May!”
“100 stars!!! She was the absolute best taking care of our dog!! She gave detailed descriptions of her visits and provided wonderful pictures!! Seriously the best at taking care of animals!! We will absolutely be using her services again!! Thank you Callie!!!”


About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life and have a passion for animals. I regularly housesit for family who have three dogs (two small one large). I have experience with senior animals and am on time with medications. I am currently unemployed and start college in the fall. My classes are my main priority but I would like some money on the side. I have enough time between classes to do some “side quests”. I have lots of free time and would like to fill it with sweet babies. I can easily give commands to dogs in a non aggressive manner and can crate them. I’m an active person so lifting large animals or keeping a lead tight is easy. I have my own vehicle with no issues getting from point A to point B.

“Courtney was great for cat sitting! She sent photos each day and a quick text to let me know how it went, which I greatly appreciated and gave me a lot of peace of mind. My cat seems relaxed and happy when I got home. Can’t wait to have Courtney come back for Labor Day!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have always loved caring for pets! I have experience with feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and providing lots of attention and affection. I’m comfortable following specific routines and instructions to make sure every pet gets the care they’re used to. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, so I’ll treat every animal like they’re my own and keep owners updated with plenty of pictures and messages. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’m happy to adjust to their individual personality and needs! As a college student, my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week for pet care. I’m available between and after classes, as well as during many evenings and weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and plan visits, walks, feeding, and playtime around their needs. I’ll always communicate my availability clearly so you know exactly when your pet will be cared for Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I carefully follow all instructions provided by owners, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, crate instructions, and any household rules. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their space and their pet’s normal routine. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention while keeping you updated with pictures and messages so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: I have been in-house pet sitting for 8 years now. What started as a college side gig has now turned into my side job business. After years of getting referrals by word of mouth, I recently, in 2026, decided to go public with my business! So that brings me to Rover! 🐾 I believe pet care is about more than just a task of feeding, potty breaks, and walks. I have always had a deep love for animals and making sure they feel LOVED. When you choose me as your sitter, your pets become my bonus-furbabies, and I love them as if they were my own! I learn your pet's routine, personality, and preferences so they receive love and care that is tailored to them. A lot of my clients are repeat clients, and I love getting to know each pet's unique personality. As the owner of Paws & Relax Pet Staycation, I value building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. I know how important communication is, so I'll keep you updated with photos and messages, giving you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is simple: for your pets to feel cared for and comfortable in their home, and for you to return home knowing that they were treated like family. I currently work full-time near Grelot Rd. and University Blvd. When you hire me as your in-home pet sitter, my goal is to spend as much time as possible at your home with your pets, seamlessly blending their care with my workday schedule. I also provide overnight stays to ensure your pets have companionship throughout the night, keeping their usual routine completely intact and stress-free! If your home is within 15 to 20 min from my workplace, a midday visit is available for a potty break for your pets. I only provide pet sitting inside the client's home, as I believe pets do best in their own familiar surroundings. I always schedule a Meet & Greet at least two weeks before your trip so I can meet your pets with you there—that way, I’m a friend walking through the door on day one, not a stranger. While I'm visiting, we’ll fill out a personalized care sheet together. We'll map out everything from feeding schedules and medications to their favorite games, daily habits, and emergency info, ensuring they get the exact care they're used to.

“Audrey is super friendly and patient with both of my boys. One is super energetic, and the other is a lot more timid. She handles both with the energy and care that they desire, and always makes them both feel special.”


About: I have been a dog sitter before and I have a dog of my own which I have had since she was a puppy, I love all animals and love to take care of them! I’m newly married and don’t have a job, I mostly just tend to our house and would love to have something to do during the day! I have a fenced in back yard and a spacious living room in my house, both great for plenty of play time and running around!
About: I have a deep love for dogs and years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. I have so much compassion in my approach to dogs who are grieving the loss of a sibling or companion. I understand the emotional needs of lonely dogs and provide gentle, attentive care to help them feel safe, comforted, and loved. Whether it’s quiet companionship, extra cuddles, or keeping their routine consistent, I’m here to support their healing with patience and heart. I’m a full time student during the fall and spring, but have an extremely flexible schedule and will be free all summer. During the fall, I’ll still be free to care for your pups! I have a fenced in backyard, and two friendly and playful dogs. They are loved deeply and are only in a kennel when I’m out of the house.

About: I provide a safe, loving, and smoke-free home for pets! I have a fully fenced-in backyard for supervised outdoor play and one senior cat who is friendly with kids, dogs, and other cats. I’ll give your pet plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care while they’re in my home! I’m available for pet care in the evenings Monday–Thursday, with full availability on weekends. I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s routine, whether they need a walk, drop-in visit, playtime, or some extra love and attention! 🐾🧡 I have a fenced-in backyard that’s perfect for safe outdoor play and plenty of room to stretch those paws! 🐾 I also have a sweet senior cat who has been part of my family since I was in 8th grade. He is friendly and gets along well with dogs, so your pup will have a calm, welcoming environment during their stay. 🧡

About: What makes me different is that my experience isn’t just from watching dogs—it comes from truly caring for my own over many years. I went through the full journey of raising a puppy into her senior years, which taught me patience, responsibility, and deep respect for animals’ needs. Since then, I’ve felt naturally drawn to caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I currently have full availability after returning from college, which allows me to focus on pet care as a priority. I am flexible with scheduling and can provide care throughout the day, including mornings, evenings, and overnight stays when needed. I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space while keeping pets on their usual feeding, walking, and play schedule. I pay close attention to instructions and details provided by the owner so each pet receives consistent, personalized care. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where they are supervised and given plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I make sure they have fresh water, proper feeding times, and a stress-free space to relax. My goal is always to treat every pet like my own and ensure they feel secure and well cared for at all times.
