About: I have taken care of dogs of different breeds and ages. I love taking dogs for walks and playing fetch and of course for going to potty. For house sitting, I have house sat for months at a time for a couple who would go out of town several times through out the year. I am very careful to make sure that the house is kept the same way as when the owner left. I clean up after myself. I am available during the day and evenings if needed. My only unavailable day would be Sundays but Sunday evenings after 8 pm I am available. I just have the one cat and she is indoor only so I do not have a fenced in area so my house is not suitable for cat or dog sitting.
“Royalty was a great pet sitter he sent pics and videos from the time I left for vacation till the time I got home I was very pleased with his services and will definitely use him next time I go out of town!!!”
“Meredith was phenomenal! She called ahead of time and got every detail in advance and she was super sweet to my pup! She will take great care of your pet and will be sure to get everything just right so your pet is as comfortable as possible! Highly highly recommend having her as your Rover!”
“Ryan was so good with our dogs he took very good care of them. Our dogs loved him also. He kept us informed with what was going on and sent us pictures of them while he was here!! I will definitely use him again!! 5/5”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and love taking care of them. The unconditional love and understanding an animal gives is unlike anything else. Earning their trust is something I take pride in. Since the beginning of Covid, I’ve pivoted to pet sitting and housesitting to earn a living. It brings me such joy everyday! I do pet sitting full time, so unless I’m already booked, I’m available to take care of your fur baby! Please let me know your needs. I will treat your pet as if they were my own! I understand that your animal is not simply a “pet”, but a cherished and important family member. If there is anything specific you would like done for your fur baby, please just ask!
“Jake did a great job taking care of our dogs! He stayed at the house and left everything spotless and I could tell the dogs enjoyed his company.”
“Courtney did a wonderful job taking care of our pup. She sent an update everyday! Sometimes twice with accompanying photos! We will definitely use Courtney again!!’”
About: My family and friends have trusted me with their fur babies for over 20 years. I have medical experience and have had a dog that developed diabetes at 10 years old, that I cared for. I will care for your senior pup or youngster! I have owned small and large dogs, and cats as well. I am currently semi- retired and doing online classes. I am home every day I need to be, to care for your baby as if they are home with you. I have 2 dogs that are 1 & 3 that love to run and play. I also have the ability to crate a medium and large dog as well, if that is your preference. I strive to keep as close to your normal routine as possible, but also want your pup to be on "vacation" as well!
About: I’ve had/taken care of pets of all kinds for as long as I can remember! I have fed and walked pets more times than I can count! I don’t have lots of experience bathing animals, but if your pet needs it I’m happy to do it! I’m currently working at a cookie bakery and my schedule usually is all over the place, but if you schedule with me a week or more in advance, I can make anything work! I currently have a dog and a cat who are still trying to become friendly with each other which is new to both of them (and causing them some stress) which is the only reason I don’t offer pets to stay at my house. Any and all safety/security requirements you have for me will be upheld fully!!
About: I have owned and loved a jack russel terrier from 6 months up until his passing at 17 years old. I currently have 3 beautiful cats. I assist friends, family, and neighbors with theirs pet care needs and advice as well. I am currently taking classes online for my associates degree so that does not interfere with my availability. I am working 30 hours a week at Target. Usually Tuesday through Saturday 8 - 4pm. My schedule does fluctuate, but is easily adjustable. I have a large fenced in yard at my mom’s place and her two friendly medium sized dogs if your dog wants company. I am happy to stay at a clients home with their pet as much as needed. I love going for long walks at Moss Rock or taking the dogs to Red Mountain dog park.

Jen G.
“Jen was fantastic. She has stayed in our home and taken care of our dog (a beloved but fairly high maintenance Corgi) and two cats numerous times. She was the best sitter we have ever had! She asked lots of good questions before her first stay, which made me feel confident in hiring her. That confidence proved to be well-placed. She went above and beyond. She sent numerous pictures, videos, and updates, and in each everyone seemed to be having an absolute ball. She perfectly followed the routine and requests we left. It was clear she genuinely liked my pets and enjoyed being around them as much as they enjoyed her. Gizmo was sincerely worn out since Jen played with him so frequently. Jen is patient, kind, and knowledgeable. Additionally, she left the house just like I left it, clean and organized, and even gave attentive care to our plants. I plan on hiring her anytime I travel and fully recommend her and her services. You and your fur family will be thrilled.”
