“Elena was amazing and will be our go-to sitter moving forward. We reached out to her last minute to housesit and to watch our two pups for 5 nights. She quickly responded to our request and was able to meet with our pups prior to us leaving to get them accommodated. The home was left clean and our pups seemed happy. It was a relief to have them stay at home instead of boarding since we just moved to the area so there’s been a lot of changes. Thank you, Elena! We appreciate you so much!”


“Laura went above and beyond. My pups were well taken care of and got their daily walks. I was completely at ease leaving the care of my dogs and my home in her care. She even washed her towels and the sheets, which wasn't necessary but so sweet! She is my new Dog Whisperer! There is no way anyone can go wrong employing her services. Thank you SOOOO much, Laura!”


“Grace was so great with Harley, she took him out for walks and sent pictures. Her and him really hit it off Grace is very personable and was prompt and able to stay as long as we needed Definitely will be using grace again”


About: I’ve had animals my entire life, so I have gained quite a bit of experience taking care of them and picking up after them. I absolutely love animals with all my heart, and have cared for all sorts of them: cats, dogs, turtles, fish, birds, you name it! I am extremely responsible and have the patience and love to fulfill all of your pet’s needs! I feed my dog and cats every day. I pick up after them in the yard every couple weeks. I walk my dog occasionally, but play with him every day. I pet and play with my cats all the time! In my client’s home, I follow all instructions and timelines. I show love and care to each and every animal. I clean up after the animals when needed. Whatever you request, I will do! And more!

About: Ive taken care of dogs since I was a young boy. I love dogs of all species and love to play and learn about dogs when I can. I currently have a blue heeler so high energy dogs are no problem. I would love to use my free time to do something productive and help people make sure their animals are cared for and give them the extra attention that I can. I live in an apartment, but I love taking my dog to the park to play to let out his energy. We also love to play in the house aswell.

“I am so grateful for Edith’s exceptional care for my two small dogs during her recent six-night stay at my home. From the start, Edith was attentive, reliable, and truly dedicated to ensuring my pets felt safe, happy, and comfortable. She kept me updated daily, providing not only peace of mind but also a reassuring sense of connection with my pups. Her thoughtful updates and photos allowed me to see just how well my dogs were doing in her care. Beyond her excellent communication, Edith went above and beyond in her role. She treated my home with the utmost respect, leaving everything tidy and just as I had left it. My dogs quickly warmed up to her gentle and caring nature, and it was evident that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with them. I could tell they were relaxed and well-cared-for, which speaks volumes about Edith’s attentive and compassionate approach. If you’re looking for someone who is not only professional but also treats your pets like her own, I would highly recommend Edith. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”


About: I've been surrounded by pets my whole life. I grew up with many cats (currently have 5) and a super loving golden retriever. Ever since I was 12, my neighbors and family friends have trusted me to watch their pets. Now that I'm away from home, I love any opportunity to spend time with animals. I can assure you your pets will be well taken care of and in loving hands with me!! I'm currently self-employed, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I can house-sit or stop in for as long as you need any days/times of the week! I have watched many pets over the years. If you have a specific routine with your pet, I will easily be able to adapt to it so that your pet can stay in routine!

“They were great! Very communicative. It’s hard for me to feel totally comfortable that someone is taking proper care of my dog but felt at complete ease with them watching my dog.”


“Tanja exceeded expectations from the beginning. She was thorough and professional during our first messages in the Rover App. And when we set up an introduction our pups immediately gravitated towards her as an obvious dog lover. She provided photo and text updates constantly showing strong commitment and love for our little fur babies. She is a great communicator and had very prompt responses. We will definitely be asking for Tanja again if she is available for our next trip!”


“Karen, was an amazing communicator and sent multiple pictures and videos. I feel she treated my Lily as her own sweet pet and loved on her. I highly recommend using her. I will definitely call on her for my next pet service need.”

“She took lots of pictures. Helped as much as possible. He wasn't feeling well and she took him out numerous times to ease his worries. She kept me updated on everything. Very polite and nice to have had her help.”

“Makeda was very accommodating when I requested an orientation visit a week or so before the scheduled dogsitting, and impressed me not only by the details she had requested about my dog in advance but also with her recall of what I had told her. She sent several photos of my dog to me while I was away, and apart from a scattering of treats she left for my pet, she otherwise left no trace--very clean and respectful.”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my whole life. I can help your puppy be the best version of themselves; I can take great care of your senior dog too. I’m a pro At popping pills in their mouth or giving supplements to any kind of oral medication. I’m currently a stay at home dog auntie so if you need me I’ll be there. Me and Otis go for coffee and other short walks throughout the day, so it will be nice to have someone to take along for the ride or for Otis to play with. I have a fenced yard and two extra crates under our covered patio so there’s that. I can also run your fur child for a coffee/potty break if that’s what they need. Whatever they or you need I’m there. Currently I’m not working so I provide a constant care environment for your pets. It is always a pleasure for us (Louise and I) to have a new pup over. I have a fully fenced backyard and I love to have your pups over. I hang out under the covered patio all day with them. That’s what my house is like. Especially because we have an unfenced pool and it’s only happened once but it did happen; one pup fell in and had to be rescued, I jumped in and got him out. No big deal.

About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats and have experience staying overnight in clients’ homes while they travel. I previously stayed with a dog for 3 days, making sure they were fed, let outside, and given companionship. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, including senior dogs, and I’m open to administering medication or injections as long as I’m shown how to do it correctly. I currently have a cat and have had pets in the past, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your furry family members. I treat every pet like my own with patience, affection, and respect for their routine. I work full time Sunday through Thursday from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM, but I’m available for drop-in visits or daily check-ins outside of those hours. I’m also happy to do overnight extended stays during my workweek as long as you're comfortable with me being away during the day for my job. I always make sure your pet is fed, let out to use the bathroom, and settled before I leave in the morning. Once I’m back from work, I’m fully present to care for them again. My Fridays and Saturdays are flexible, allowing me to dedicate focused time to your pet. Whether it's feeding, playtime, walks, or simply keeping them company, I make sure they feel safe and cared for even while you're away. While I’m currently offering care in clients’ homes only, I make sure your pet feels safe, calm, and loved while you’re away. I follow all your instructions closely and am happy to update you with pictures and messages. I’m also respectful of your home and space, and I take pride in leaving things clean and just as I found them.

About: Hi there! I'm excited to tell you about my experience caring for pets, especially dogs. With two wonderful pups of my own, aged 2 and 5, I've learned firsthand the joy and responsibility that comes with being a pet parent. From daily walks to cozy snuggles, I understand the importance of providing attentive and loving care to furry companions. What sets me apart as a sitter is my dedication to meeting the unique needs of each dog in my care. I love helping young pups learn basic commands and develop good manners in a positive and encouraging environment. As someone who has raised puppies, I know the importance of early training. Additionally, with my older dog by my side, I've gained valuable experience in caring for senior pets. Whether it's gentle exercise, administering medication, or providing extra comfort, I'm committed to ensuring that older dogs receive the attention and care they deserve.

This period of flexibility allows me to provide the attention, care, and companionship that dogs thrive on, creating a harmonious and joyful environment. In both my home and my clients' spaces, the cornerstone of my pet care approach is safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. Living in an apartment, I ensure that the dogs under my care have the freedom to move about freely, fostering a sense of comfort and relaxation. Regular walks to nearby parks provide not only essential exercise but also a change of scenery and the opportunity for social interactions with other canine friends. Creating a safe haven is paramount; I meticulously puppy-proof and dog-proof my living space to eliminate potential hazards. Beyond physical safety, I prioritize building a trusting relationship with each pet through positive interactions, ensuring they feel at home and secure in their temporary abode.
