“Rebekah provided my cat with excellent care while I was away. She was responsive to all of my questions and requests and completed her job duties within the identified timeframe. Most importantly, my cat was not as stressed as prior occasions when I returned home. I highly recommend her and will request her services again.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs sense I was 10, I’ve gone to numerous dog training camps, I’ve worked at two vets and have taken care and own dogs and cats myself. I work part time and in school part time but I have a lot of flexibility with my day and always take priority over animals as I’m going to school to be a vet. I have a fenced in yard, and love going on walks with dogs, and making sure they have enough water afterwards, i love having a schedule when it comes to house sitting and making sure everything is accurate.
“Emily came to stay for several days (overnight stays). My cats & bird remembered her as soon as she walked in & the cats came running to greet her. They love when Emily stays with them! Emily is great! She is prompt & professional. She communicates daily during her stay with updates & cute pictures/videos. She takes great care of my pets & the house and leaves everything neat & tidy. I highly recommend Emily for any of your pet sitting needs. We have been very happy with her. This was our 2nd booking and we already have her booked for another stay!”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs for different families. From small to big and young to elderly. I’ve been around an abundance of animals most of my life and truly enjoy it! I have a full-time 8AM-5PM work from home job so your pup will always have my full attention. I am also available on weekends that I am not out of town. I have a fenced in yard and I also have two dachshunds, so if you have dogs that need ramps to get up and down then I’m your girl! My two dachshunds are crated while I am away and our blue heeler has free range of the house. I also own a cat that is mostly outside.
“The cats were still here, healthy and happy. The house was in good shape. The mail was organized. She was very responsive to calls and sent cat pics. This was my first time with Emilie, but I will certainly try to get her again.”
About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life and have always loved caring for them. I enjoy looking after pets for family and friends whenever possible. I am currently in high school and will be graduating in May. I typically work 2-3 days a week for about 3-6 hours, but I am available at home during all other times. I maintain the pet’s routine in their familiar environment. This includes feeding, refilling water, walks, playtime, administering any necessary medications, and cleaning up after them. I also provide companionship to keep them happy and comfortable while their owner is away.

Sara R.
“Sara Rozar is always my first choice for a pet sitter, whether I take my dogs to her house, or she comes to mine to take care of them. She is quiet, calm, easy-going, and animals love her - almost as much as she loves them. My large dogs LOVE going to her house. Sara has 2 small and 1 medium size dog in her house, all well behaved and healthy. Sara is great with dogs that need a little help to stay healthy and well, and often cares for dogs with medical needs, even dogs who are basically receiving hospice type care. I have seen her dress wounds, express drainage (after being shown how by the owner), and manage medications for these dogs. More fit animals go for walks with her and her 6 year-old son, whom dogs also love. He will play with them if they want to play, but does not insist on interacting with dogs that just want some quiet time. I highly recommend Sara. She's the best!”
