“Yvonne did a great job! She took care of my 4 cat's food, water and cat box while we were visiting family for a week. Great at communication, sent pics and on time. Thank, Yvonne!”
“Can't say enough great things!! She accepted the job last minute after we had an emergency and my husband got rehospitalized after having surgery. She checked in a lot, sent pictures, and took really good care of my baby. I'm forever grateful!”
“She did a late night and short notice drop in for my boy who was barking and having anxiety and our friend was unreachable. She helped him even tho he was scared since he hadn’t meet her, but she took time and he went to her so well and calmed him down. Even tho I wasn’t there, I saw how sweet and patient she was with him on the camera and I just knew she was great with our boy and pets in general! She saved us a ton of stress! ❤️ definitely will ask her to help in the future and recommend to others.”
About: I specialize in large breeds. I myself have a German Shepherd and have owned bully breeds. I have experience with feeding raw, as I currently do this with mine. I also had my Shepherd professionally trained, so I am familiar with what goes into that as well as maintaining. I am available 9:30am-2:00pm Monday-Friday. Once school is out I will change to 8am-4pm. Weekends 8am-10pm. I can check on animals for over nights, but cannot stay at client’s homes. For client’s homes, I will follow guidelines that are left to me. For animals staying within my home, I will require them to be crate trained. We have a fenced in yard and walk daily.
“Amazing care and very thorough. constantly kept me updated on every single detail of her visits including pictures of my babies! We are very picky about who we leave our babies with, and I highly recommend her! We will be using her again!”
“Toby is AWEmazing with my Rottweiler Mello he always works with my schedule and is great with working with me last minute. He also sticks to his commitment when I have something planned weeks Ahead! I will def continue using him for my boarding and drop ins !!!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of a variety of breeds since I was 11. Neighbors, friends, & family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, play & sit their pets. I'm currently working PRN at the hospital and will have plenty of time to love on and take care of your fur babies, both cats and dogs. I am a Belgian Malinois mama and she keeps me on my feet! I try and walk her 3 times a day. She was exposed to the dog park at a young age and loves other pets. I have an open backyard with a 50 ft tie out lead. I stay outside with my dog at all times while she is using the restroom or when I play with her.
About: Hi everyone! My husband and I would love to help watch your pets! I’m an animal lover at heart and I’m the mama of a beautiful chocolate lab and black cat names Zuko and Azula. I love the connections you can make with animals and I love to make new animal friends! My experience ranges from watching dogs ages puppy to senior, sometimes up to 6 at a time (my moms got a zoo!) I also have watched cats and have no issues checking in on cats daily but I can’t have a cat at my house because my cat is a cat hater lol! But my dog gets along super well with all animals and my cat enjoys dogs. I have also taken care of rats before so if you have other animals than cats and dogs that need checking up on I’m able to do that too! If you have questions don’t hesitate to ask! I current teach yoga periodically and babysit a couple times a week from 8-5, starting in August it will be Monday and Tuesday weekly. Other than that I’m mostly free and able to spend lots of time with your furry friend My dog is crate trained but stays out most of the time since he’s getting to be more trust worthy, my cat roams freely but is indoors only. We don’t allow the dog on the bed or couch most of the time but rarely we let him up for a short time for snuggles. He gets fed twice a day, morning and night usually around 7 am/pm. My cat gets fed freely but her food is high up where no dog can reach, her litter box is also enclosed so no dog can get into it. I will be able to adhere to what you prefer for your pet mostly, we can always chat about what the details are.
“Taylor does a great job of taking care of my dog and keeping me updated. She pays attention to Mia’s mood and how she is acting and adjusts the activity to my dog. Mia is worn out and happy and I enjoy the pictures and update. Thanks for everything!”
“Whitney did amazing as always with my pups! She puts up with their craziness and sends me pics all day long! She even asked if I wanted her to give Ruger a Benadryl because she noticed a rash on him. Whitney is the best!”
About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself. When it comes to my fur babies - they have been a part of my life for nearly a decade. Whether its my own, families, or friends - I'm always striving to offer my attention and care to making sure our four legged friends are not only taken care of but shown love. I'm blessed that I routinely get to balance my week by reducing the burden on pet parents seeing more of my furry friends! I live in a house with a fenced in back yard and a cat that is a sweetheart. I treat other people's pet like my own.
“Excellent sitter! She was so great with our grumpy old man and the puppies. We are really going to miss her now that we've moved. Thanks so much for all the times you took great care of our pups!”
About: I have 10+ years of experience in animal care; dogs, cats, farm animals, and to little critters. My experience includes feeding/watering, long/short walks, bathing, litter/puppy pad changing, and some medication. I approach each pet differently as they are all uniquely different. I believe they are your family and should be treated with love and compassion. I’m currently working full time but on the weekends I have all the availability. During the week I’m available after 5:00 pm, Friday’s 1:00 pm. If my schedule changes I will always keep you updated. As someone coming in your home that your pet(s) is not familiar with it’s very important to make sure they are comfortable. To make them feel comfortable I will follow the schedule that is provided and give them all the love and support they need.
“Our first time using Rover and we had the pleasure of having Catherine watch Josie. She was a superb dog sitter - prompt, patient, communicative and connected with our dog. I would recommed her 100%!!!”
“Ashlee did an amazing job taking over and checking on it “boys” while we had to be out of town. They are both older labs and have different personalities. Ashlee figured out just how to manage them and get them to follow her “lead”! They appeared to love her visits and she did an exceptional job supporting them. Thankful for this “doggie loving” fighting animal lover”! Keep it up! Will loo forward to rebooking soon.”
“Heather is great with our two cats, even with one that is less than friendly. She is very personable and we will continue booking Heather every time we go anywhere. We can’t say enough good about her and we don’t have to worry if the girls are being taken care of.”
About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime, just have to work around my husbands schedule! But that shouldn’t be an issue. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily

“I'm going to be honest. Chloe knows more about pets than I ever thought I could know about pets. She's very diligent in her ability to care for animals and see to their needs when it may not be so apparent on the surface. She goes beyond the call of duty and caring for said animals and I have always admired learning from her and seeing how she takes care of her pets. I will trust her to always look after my animals with the utmost scrutiny.”

Kristyn B.
“Kristyn was so kind and friendly. She came over to meet our dog and interacted with her to make sure it was a good fit. She stayed with our dog for a few nights and our dog loved her! She was fed, well-taken care of, and Kristyn made sure to play with her. I think our dog even got to go on a car ride at one point. We highly recommend Kristyn! We tried to get her for some other dog sitting but she moved out of our area, sadlly. So whoever has her services now? Lucky you!”
