“Brian was an excellent cat sitter for our four cats during a weekend drop-in visit. He was extremely responsive, flexible, and accommodating of our specific requests. Even though our cats were understandably shy and spent most of the time hiding, Brian went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and cared for. He even cleaned up after them without hesitation, which we greatly appreciated. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was checking in. We would absolutely recommend Brian to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter—and we’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

About: I grew up on a farm and cared for all kinds of animals from a young age, including a golden retriever and five cats. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me with daily feeding, walks, and companionship. Whether your pet needs a high-energy outing, a lap to sit on, or daily medication, I am ready to give yours the same reliable care! I am available for drop-ins most weekday evenings and nearly anytime on weekends. Please check my calendar for up-to-date availability. I can follow any schedules/routines so your pet stays comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. Every animal is unique, and I adapt my care to match their personality and routine.

About: I've taken care of my dog and family and friends dogs for many years. I even volunteered in an animal shelter for awhile as well! I currently run a small handmade business from my space. I do work a part-time service job a couple days of the week in a restaurant right now as well. Aside from dog sitting that's what I do financially. I spend a lot of time outdoors with my own dog, we like to run, play fetch, chase squirrels, and spend time treat training. I make sure a walk and quality time are prioritys with animals. I do not take dogs into my living space as I live with friends currently and on the road at times, so I prefer to go to your home and location. I'm very flexible! :)

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have been around them for most of my life. Between caring for my own family dog and helping neighbors, friends and family with their pets, I’m very comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime and keeping dogs on their normal routines. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate different pet care needs throughout the week. I’m available mornings, evenings and weekends, with flexibility during the workday when needed. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and schedule! I’m very respectful of both your pet and your home and will follow any routines or instructions you provide. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise and care while keeping their environment safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.

Beth confidently gave him his meds and gave him lots of love. We will definitely book with Beth next time we need a sitter.”

About: I have 10 years of experience taking care of pets! I have walked puppies, middle aged, and elderly dogs, and I love hanging out with cats as well. I do Rover to earn some extra money while saving for grad school and get to hang out with some adorable pets at the same time! I am reliable, punctual, and attentive. I’m excited to meet your pet! As a recent college grad, I take care of cats and dogs in my time off from work to make some extra money on the side doing something I love :) I will follow your instructions for drop-in visits in your home and/or walks. Let me know what is best for your pet and I will do my best to follow that!

About: I believe the best pet care starts with getting to know each pet and their individual routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely, whether that means walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications, potty breaks, or simply giving your pet some extra love and attention. I’m happy to send regular updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing your furry friend is doing well while you’re away. I’ll also make sure to keep their space clean, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own! I work from home every day as a full-time remote employee, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and playtime, and I can even care for pets while their owners are at work. I live in a clean, comfortable apartment and have plenty of experience having my family dog come stay with me. I’m also a very active person who loves walking and running, so I’m happy to bring an energetic pup along for some exercise and adventure! When your pet stays with me, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and at home! I’ll follow their normal feeding, potty, walking, and sleep routine as closely as possible and give them plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. Since I work from home, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m also happy to take dogs on walks or runs if that fits their normal routine and energy level. My apartment is clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly, and I’ll make sure your pet has a calm space to relax. I’ll send regular updates and pictures so you can see how your furry friend is doing while they’re staying with me! Because I live in an apartment, I do require dogs staying in my home to be fully potty trained. 🤍

About: I’ve taken care of multiple animals in my lifetime since I’ve been 12 years old. I have also taken care of my extended family’s pets while they’ve been away. I’m working part time as a robotics coach but other than that I’m free to help out with pet sitting, dog walking, and check ins. I enjoy playing with animals and will make sure they get lots of attention when I’m present. I will follow any instructions that are provided.

About: I’ve been doing overnight dog sitting for 7 years, I have many reoccurring parents reach out to me! I am a student getting my masters who loves to go on walks! I have quite the busy schedule but I prioritize the pets as much as possible! When I’m not at school I’m always sitting around with the pets so they aren’t alone and stay as much at the house as I can! I care for the pets just like I would if they are mine, I always find time to make sure they are not left alone for an extended people of time and they always love me!

Jasmine is the best. This was our second time booking her, and she has been just as great as the first. She looks after our 3 cats and 2 dogs, and she is on time every visit, right when she said she would be. When we needed to shift a visit time, she was easy to work with and made it simple. Communication is excellent. We get friendly updates and lots of photos, so we always know how everyone is doing while we are away. The animals clearly love her, and you can tell she enjoys them right back. She even kept us laughing with a report on Simba sneaking Rio’s treats. We never have to worry when Jasmine is here. We are already planning to book her again. Five stars all the way.

Maia was awesome, my cats loved her! She made sure to ask all the necessary questions to feel comfortable watching my cats, sent photos and updates, stayed on top of everything they needed, and left my apartment clean! She also responded promptly and took on a last minute request for an extra visit when my flight home got cancelled and caused me to get home a day later than expected. Based on the photos, the cats had a great time and were comfortable with her, even the very skittish and anxious one.

Samantha is wonderful. She was very detailed during our orientation and asked great questions. We had some major vacation issues which required us to modify our plans. She was very accommodating and understanding. It is obvious that she loves animals and did a great job following our instructions. I can’t thank her enough. I highly recommend her to care for your animals.

Maddie was absolutely wonderful! She watched Deanie and Frankie, and I was thrilled with the care she provided. She arrived early each time, which I really appreciated, and most importantly, she made sure Deanie received his medicine exactly as needed. That gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Maddie was responsible, caring, and dependable, and I would 💯 recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets. I will definitely be using Maddie again!
