About: I have taken care of animals for nearly 10 years and have experience with all kinds of dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. I am a pet owner myself, so I know how important it is to feel that your loved one is in good hands. I am always sure to follow directions closely, and do everything I can to ensure the animals have a safe and enjoyable experience. I'm currently a graduate student and have a pretty flexible schedule. For the summer, I am generally available any morning and evening during the weekday + any time on the weekend. I follow the care instructions, take note of the living area, monitor the animal for any signs of stress or illness, and provide them the attention they need, whether that be playing, petting, or spending quiet time with them.

Jana did a great job with looking after our cat, Sook. She was very accommodating with our cat, who suddenly and unexpectedly became unwell. She very kindly looked after him and cleaned up after him, and even came in for an extra visit on short notice when we were really concerned. She gave us lots of updates and pictures and became a real friend to our cat—it seems like he has truly bonded with her. We can’t thank Jana enough for her love and care for our cat!

Christa was great taking care of our two cats with drop-in visits. She was great at making sure she understood their routine (fairly simple but every house is different) asking questions to clarify. She kept in touch throughout a long period of being out of town, giving the social cat playtime and keeping the peace with the anti-social one.

Irene was great with dropping in on my two cats while I was away on a long work trip. Both my cats are unique, and she understood immediately how to work with their different temperaments. Also, she was able to communicate well with me throughout the 10-days. When I was having issues with the Rover app, she was understanding and helpful and we quickly figured out any issues. I’d recommend Irene and work with her again. Thanks!

About: I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with hands-on experience looking after a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, and small pets. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, walking, playtime, and providing plenty of attention to keep pets happy and stress-free while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, so I take the time to follow instructions carefully and build trust with both pets and owners. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine since I work remotely from home and have a flexible schedule. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, feeding, and companionship without long gaps in supervision. I’m able to easily adjust my work hours to accommodate walks, playtime, and any specific care needs, including medications or special routines. On a weekly basis, my flexibility also allows me to take on longer visits, overnight stays, or last-minute bookings, ensuring pets receive reliable and attentive care whenever needed. I prioritize following each pet’s routine and any specific instructions to ensure their well-being and reduce stress. I take time to build trust with pets through patience, gentle handling, and consistent care, helping them feel secure while their owners are away. I also maintain a clean, safe environment by monitoring surroundings, preventing potential hazards, and ensuring pets are always supervised appropriately. My goal is to create a calm, reliable space where pets feel at ease and owners can feel confident their animals are in good hands.

About: We love dogs! We enjoyed our beautiful Bichon for 17 years and now we have a Portuguese Water Dog and a rescued Labradoodle. We're looking forward to providing your pup with a fun, safe place to stay. We have a large 4 acre lot with about 1/2 acre of fenced yard. Jodi works part time, which allows for plenty of time for midday play, walks and outdoor time. Our fur babies love playing with each other and we often host play dates with friends and their dogs, that are always a big hit. We know how difficult it is to find someone you trust with your baby, and we look forward to welcoming your dog into our home while you take that business trip or long overdue vacation. Working part time allows for extra time with my dogs...and yours! Our dogs are family - they sit with us on the couch and sleep in our bed. Yours will be free to relax wherever they find most comfortable. We have a fenced yard in addition to a large wooded lot that your babies are sure to enjoy. Our two friendly dogs will keep your fur baby company and I can also easily crate your dog inside, if needed.

About: My family and I grew up on a farm and I helped watch and agility train my grandmas 6 Welch springer show dogs. At home I have 4 dogs (2 huskies, a German Shepard, and Weimaraner), and 3 kitties ( all rescues and different levels of shyness), so I have experience with lots of types of animals. I also used to care for a snake and bearded dragon! I am currently a full time student but my classes are very spread out, so the longest I am gone for a time is usually 2-3 hours. Our huskies and Weimaraner require lots of attention and play time, so we either go on 2-3 walks a day or one really long run/walk in the morning, but I am flexible to fit your schedule! I also love playing with my cats and making sure they are stimulated every day, (playing different games, switching toys around, building little forts, etc). I also love the company and cuddling up with whoever wants to!

We had such a great experience with Carla while we were away. This is the second time we’ve booked her. We have three cats, two who are very skittish and one who requires daily medication, and she handled all of their needs with so much care. It gave us real peace of mind knowing she was attentive, reliable, and gentle with them, especially given their different personalities and needs. We came home to three happy, well-cared-for cats. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet sitter.
