“Chandler was an AMAZING pet and house sitter! I expected this based on her other reviews, but our dog and two young cats seemed to adore her! Usually when I board my dog he comes home very stressed out. This was such a different experience- he was just his normal, happy self. Chandler is very communicative and sent us photos and updates of our pets, letting us know how they were. She kept up on all the pet duties, brought in the mail, took out the trash, and left the house better than she found it. She's also got a lovely personality! Next time we need to go out of town, I hope she's available because this was an amazing experience!”

“John was an awesome pup and dog sitter. I had a last minute trip pop up in my go to Dog Sitters had moved out of the country. After some rigorous searching on Rover, I came across John‘s profile. He had great reviews and was super responsive. We scheduled a meet and greet just before I had to leave and the dogs were definitely on board. John kept great updates / photos during the entire trip and was very thoughtful about my return to make sure the pups are taken care of.”

About: Hello there! My name is Ian, and I've been a dog walker of and on for about 7 years now. I grew up with a black lab by the name of Rocky. He and I were best friends. The kind of friendship where he was always excited to see me, go out for walks, and steal the blankets off of me at night! That's the sort of friendship I'd love to share with your dog. I'm experienced with both dog sitting and walking. Before doing either, I like to take some time to visit both you and your dog so they get used to me and vice versa. I like to try and give your pet comfort and a chance to adjust to me. For dog walking and visits, I try to be flexible with my hours. I try to show up early or right on time, if I know I am running late I make sure to call to let you know so you can adjust your schedule if need be. For house and pet sitting, I like to try and leave the house cleaner than when you left it for when you get back. If I am pet sitting, I make sure to stay with your pet throughout the day, and if I plan to do any walks for others during my time there I will make sure to inform you and talk things over to make sure your dog still gets the best treatment and care that they deserve. I'm also capable of making sure of giving them any medication that they might need as well as possible additional care. I'm hoping to meet you! I currently work part time! I am available starting after 3PM on Mon - Thursday, and free for any time Saturday and Sundays. My current plan is to try and free up more of my time to be able to help in the mornings too! I am more than happy to help make any personal adjustments your pet might need. That can include feeding, more of a focus on play time, or any other need. I also know pets all have different personalities and enjoy speaking with the owner to best learn about their dog or cat. Knowing their dos and don'ts is very important to me!

About: Hi! My first gift as a baby was a white german shepherd named Pepper that I grew up with and I've been a dog owner ever since. Friends even brought me a stray found on campus at GWU, Wiggles. He was our house mascot. And I've owned and cared for dogs ever since. I started rescuing dogs in 2010 in Oakland. I found forever homes for 13 dogs. Your dog will be safe, made comfortable and well cared for by me. I'm happy to care for senior dogs or puppies and anyone in between. I am attentive. Responsive to them and focused to obey your instructions concerning your fur baby. I want them to be happy while you're away and I want you to be comfortable while they're in my care. Most of all, if anything happens, I know how to respond quickly. My 12yo Weimaraner Gideon passed away during the pandemic. I've been fostering. This just seems like another way for me to play with and care for a new dog until I get another one. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. I'm a professional writer and program developer so my schedule is flexible which makes caring for your dog and its needs really easy. I am able to maintain whatever schedule you've established at home. Your pet will have full run of the house and will be encouraged to make themselves at home. Their crate and food/water will be set up in places where they can be seen and made comfortable.

“Jessica was a fantastic dog sitter for our dog!! She sent regular photo and video updates and even gave him a bath. We will be hiring her again because she was very reliable and great with our dog!”

“Jennifer did a great job taking care of Sheyneh and house-sitting. She kept us informed and sent us many pix of Sheyneh. Sheyneh and the house both looked great when we returned.”

About: Hello! I’m a college students who has always had a soft spot for animals. I’ve had 2 dogs of my own; Hunter was a black lab German shepherd mix and Bear was a Yorkshire mix. I took care of my friend’s dog, Harley who is a dachshund mix, when they needed help. Hunter had a couple of medical issues so I’m well versed in giving medication to dogs. Both of my dogs were super reactive so I also have experience in that area aswell. Harley is a senior dog so I make sure he gets what he needs adequately. I’m a college who loves being active! Having the opportunity to be with dogs, getting more steps in, and getting paid is like hitting three birds with one stone. So that means I’m available every day for the summer! I’ve had big and small dogs previously myself and I have also taken care of my friend’s dogs as well. I enjoy spending time with animals and playing with them! I’m currently in a apartment so boarding is not suitable for me or your dogs, however, drop-ins and walking are well within my schedule.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for a few years and have grown to love it! I recently worked at a dog day care so I have lots of experience with dogs and giving medications. I also have some vet experience too! I’m currently in college part-time but living at home. Outside of schooling I’m available in the afternoons and weekends. During the summer I have full availability. I provide a safe and caring environment for all pets. I make sure they have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of attention. I follow the owner’s feeding and care instructions closely and keep pets supervised to ensure they stay happy, comfortable, and safe.

About: Hello! When it comes to pet care I understand that no one knows your pet better than you do. It is my mission to ensure that your pet is cared for just the way you would, and curate an experience for them that is comfortable and enjoyable. Apart from my professional experience sitting, I have been a pet owner for over half of my life. I know how it important it is to have someone you know you can trust. I am confident that I will be able to meet all of your needs. Whether it’s checking in for walks, feeds, and potty breaks or keeping them company for long stretches of time. You can expect frequent updates about how your pet is doing and trust that they are in safe hands. I am currently a college student working part time. My schedule is extremely flexible as well as the tasks I am willing to complete during care. When I am caring for a pet they have my complete and undivided attention. Their safety and well being is of the utmost importance to me.

“Trishia was a great help during a time when I really needed it. I was at my niece's wedding far away from home, and she came to where I was staying so I could focus on the big event and spending time with my family. Trishia even brought treats for my dog and provided photos and updates. I highly recommend her to care for your pet.”

“Great. Alyia stayed for 8 nights and was very responsible in taking care of my dog as well the few house items (watering plants, trash, etc). I received daily pictures .My dog 'bonded' with her because he would curl up against her on the couch and Alyia took him on frequent walks, which he loves. The house was very clean when I returned.”

About: I have been an animal lover for over 10 years! I have owned numerous pets from dogs, and cats, to guinea pigs, and reptiles like an iguana! I have provided care for several new born puppies, and house-trained many dogs. My passion for animals run deeply in my veins. People that know me, knows that I am serious when it comes to caring and respecting animals for the lifestyle they live. It is so important to provide care, nurture, and respect to these beautiful beings. I like to provide a sense of comfort for all animals, and assure that I am not the enemy but instead a friend, a lover, a caregiver, someone that is to be trusted. I also like to do this for animals that are not necessarily house pets but animals of nature that live around my home. I do this by providing them with food and water (or milk for cats) outside of my home. I truly love animals of all sorts, and can not wait to meet your lovely pet(s)! I have a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits perfectly into my life without any inconvenience! My flexible schedule allows me to remain available for last minute appointments, and of course appointments that are made in advance as well. I am here and available to help while you are handling your important duties or out enjoying life! I have a fenced patio, and very spacious front yard for fun play outside or just to run around. I have a nice, friendly, and energetic furry friend if your pet needs company or someone to enjoy the fun with! I have chew toys, and treats for comfort, and good behaviors. In addition, I have the ability to follow instructions in your home, or special instructions that are left for your pet while in my care. With my passion, and love for animals paired with my innovation, and knowledge, your pet(s) will be in great care so you can have a worry-free time away from your pal(s).

“Awesome sitter! She took good care of my special needs pup coco and left my place in tip top shape. I would not hesitate to book with Alayja!”

“Jill is the best with my dog. She always sends photos of him on their walks together. He’s always tired when I get home from my trips. Wouldn’t want anyone else watching my pup. Can tell she loves taking care of dogs.”

“Leonard is reliable, punctual, professional, and kind. Our pets had a great time with him while we were away. He got our dog zooming around the backyard at playtime and he even lured our shy cat out of hiding for greetings. The house was impeccable on our return. Zero complaints.”
