Paige was communicative, kind and attentive to our sweet girl! She sent a nice report and adorable photos too, and made me feel so much better about leaving our dog home. Can’t wait to have her visit again!

About: Although I’m young, I have been around dogs as long as I can remember. I’ve owned, fostered, and worked with shelters. I know all the ins and outs of dogs! I’m currently on summer break until late August and there is nothing else that would need my attention besides your pet at the current moment. I have a fenced in backyard, but it is on the smaller side. I have one male neutered dog who is very friendly with others and loves to play.

This was my first experience with Rover and Violeta set the bar very high. My cat has a lot of needs and Violeta did a great job meeting those needs and keeping me informed while I was away.

As a pet owner, you simply want someone you can trust to give your pet the best care and create safety while you're away and we found that in Claudia! We needed a sitter to drop in on our cat Nala while we were away and Claudia was amazing from start to finish. She was on time and kept us informed throughout her time with Nala. Nala was so comfortable and happy with Claudia and we appreciated having someone we can trust! I highly recommend Claudia for any of your pet needs, we will definitely re-book her in the future. Thanks for everything!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes and personalities for over five years. Neighbors, friends and family count on me to walk, feed, bathe and give their pets plenty of love and attention—keeping tails wagging and owners worry-free I'm currently working part-time from home , so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! ! I'm available for boarding anytime . I care for pets in their own home to keep them comfortable in a familiar space. I follow each owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, and playtime, and keep everything tidy and secure. I give plenty of affection, monitor water and food, and send regular updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and happy.

Caitlin was absolutely amazing! She took great care of my two cats over the weekend. She sent wonderful photos and updates that my husband and I looked forward to viewing during our trip. Caitlin went above and beyond hand washing dishes which was greatly appreciated. I can’t wait to book her again for our next trip! If you need a cat sitter, hire Caitlin!

About: I have had 3 dogs growing up so use to handling multiple at one time. Also my shih tzu that passed had severe skin allergies so I have experience with medical baths and diets. I work from home 3 days a week so home all day MWF, Tuesdays and Thursdays I am in the office but only a 10 min drive away and can walk them during lunch and be back home with your doggo before dinner! I live in a neighborhood with sidewalks and a park, personally have a well sized yard and back deck for lots of outdoor fun! Currently I own 2 guniea pigs but they’re quiet and kept on an elevated surface no dog has been bothered by them before. Lots of toys and 2 beds here to play with but encourage to bring your pet’s favorites here as well.

About: Need someone who can handle more than just a walk in the park? I was raised on a farm and have professional zoo experience. I have cared for many animals and can administer meds, handle large breeds and provide loving care. Currently a dog and turtle owner, I am a responsible professional looking to help you enjoy your travels worry-free. I am available anytime on weekends. During the week, I can provide care in the early mornings before 8:00 AM and in the evenings after 5:00 PM. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you are away. Drawing on my background in zoo and farm care, I am meticulous about following instruction whether that involves administering medication, adhering to strict feeding schedules, or managing specific turnout times. Because I work full-time, I structure my care around a schedule during the week: I provide quality care, exercise, and feeding before 8:00 AM and after 5:00 PM, while weekends are open for longer adventures and companionship. I treat your home with the same respect as your animals. I am experienced in maintaining a clean environment and can provide regular photo updates so you can enjoy your own adventures knowing your home and pets are secure.

About: I’ve been a devoted dog owner since the age of five and currently share my home with two lovable dogs, Nelly and Thanos. They enjoy welcoming new furry friends, and we truly believe the more, the merrier. As someone who travels often, I understand how reassuring it is to know your dog is in caring, reliable hands. Dogs have always been a constant source of joy in my life, and I treat every pup as if they were my own. I’d be honored to care for and spoil your fur baby while you’re away. I do work full-time. However, my schedule is really flexible which allows me to spend quality time with your fur baby as well as my own. There will be plenty of time for outdoor and indoor play which will get us ready for some nighttime snuggles. I have a fenced in yard and I watch my pets as well as yours to ensure safety. In addition, I can crate your dog, if needed, but I have two friendly fur babies that enjoy other friends.

My availability is anytime after 4pm but before 9pm on weekdays and anytime after 8am but before 10pm on weekends. I live with my fiance who is a veterinary nurse, our 10 year old dog, and 8 year old cat in an apartment. We have easy access to a large park with walking trails and can easily find fun routes around New areas!

Stephanie did an amazing taking care of our 4 kitties. As kitty parents know every kitty has such a unique personality; ours are no different. With ages ranging from 1 1/2 to 17 they each got individual attention during her visits. We felt very comfortable leaving our oldest who has CKD & requires medication under her care. Even our 8 year old Bella who typically hides during sitter visits came out for some love & pets.

Violeta has been absolutely amazing with my toy poodle, Bentley. She is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about him. As someone who works long hours, having someone I trust completely with my little guy means everything. Violeta always keeps me updated, makes time for Bentley, and treats him with so much love and attention. It’s clear that she truly enjoys what she does, and Bentley is always happy to see her. Knowing he’s in such caring hands gives me tremendous peace of mind while I’m at work. I honestly couldn’t do this without her, and I’m so grateful for everything she does for Bentley. I highly recommend Violeta to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and trustworthy person to care for their pet! 🐾❤️

We can’t recommend Garrison highly enough! He was incredibly conscientious and kind, taking the time to understand our bunnies’ routines and needs before we left. Each day, he spent an hour with them—snuggling, feeding them exactly to our specifications, and making sure they were safe and happy. He also treated our home with great care, responsibly using our security system and even cleaning up after the bunnies. Garrison was friendly, punctual, and kept us updated with adorable pictures. We felt completely at ease knowing our bunnies were in such capable, caring hands. A truly wonderful sitter—highly recommend!
