“Cassidy has watched our cat two times, and each time was superb! She is super reliable, communicative, and caring for our cat. We absolutely trust her to be in our space, checking on our cat, and could not be happier to have had her help. Highly recommend!”


“Amanda was wonderful with my two furry cats. She was able to get my cat who never takes his medicine for a sitter to take his medicine EVERY DAY. Great communication and updates. I will hire her every time I go away!”


About: I’ve been around dogs the last 20 years and I’ve been taking care of dogs for the last 14 years of my life. I love them and I couldn’t imagine my life without them. I’ve learned everything I know from my parents who’ve had dogs for 32 years I am 100% free and available whenever you may need I prefer having two days heads up before I can make the plan, but I can also show up For same-day visits as needed I have 2 3-year-old Samoyed girls that are absolute sweethearts who would love to have another puppy or dog hanging out in our fenced in back yard , I can crate your dog easily if needed.

“Kat continues to take great care of Kira during her visits. She has great communication and is quick to answer messages. Kat is on time and most of all Kira loves her time with Kat.”


“Caroline was wonderful, caring for our cat Suga while we were away. She sent pics every day, so we were assured of his well-being. We returned home to a happy, healthy boy. We’ll ask Caroline back the next time we need help!”


About: Growing up in a pet-loving household, I’ve had extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats. Over the years, I’ve cared for five dogs and five cats, taking on a wide range of responsibilities to ensure their health and well-being. For my dogs, I managed their daily routines, including feeding, walking, and bathing. I also played an active role in administering medication, including insulin injections, ensuring they followed prescribed regimens for their health. I’ve had hands-on experience with basic dog training, helping to establish good behavior and fostering positive relationships with my pets. In addition to my work with dogs, I’ve assisted with the care of our family’s cats, taking on feeding duties and helping with basic grooming. I’ve also been responsible for ensuring their living areas were clean and comfortable, as well as offering companionship and playtime. Throughout my experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and needs, as well as the importance of patience, consistency, and affection in caring for pets I understand that pet care needs vary, which is why I offer flexible options to suit different schedules. On weekdays, I’m available after work to take your dog for walks, ensuring they get the exercise and attention they need. On weekends I have a more open walking/visit availability. For weekend getaways, I also offer boarding services, so your dog can stay in a comfortable environment while you’re away. If you need boarding during the week, I’m happy to accommodate house-trained dogs, understanding that I work a regular 9-to-5 schedule. Your dog will have plenty of space to relax, with plenty of walks and playtime in the mornings and once I am out of work. I’ll ensure they’re well-cared for and have a positive, enjoyable experience while you're away. I understand that entrusting your dog to someone else requires a great deal of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. My home offers a safe, comfortable environment where your dog will feel secure and cared for. With a fully fenced-in yard, they’ll have plenty of room to play and explore without worrying about escaping or running off. Additionally, a covered porch provides a shaded and cozy spot for them to relax, no matter the weather. I’m committed to providing personalized care, ensuring your dog feels at ease in a familiar, homely atmosphere. Your pet’s safety, well-being, and happiness are my top priority, and I will make sure they have the best experience during their stay.

“Thank you Julie for caring for our 3 cats. They were well fed, litter was cleaned, and everything was in good shape when we returned, their messes cleaned up, which we’re grateful for. We had a small hiccup in the beginning, but then she did make things right.”


“First time using Rover. Beyond happy with the care my elderly cat received while I was away. Callie was responsive and kept us up to date daily. I would absolutely use her again in the future. FIVE STAR SERVICE!!!”


“Selena came a day before the appointment to chat about our dog and what we needed her to do. She was a Vet Tech in a former life so we felt confident in her ability. She did everything as requested and sent us a picture of our pooch. We will be using Selena in the future. Excellent service.”


“so kind and flexible! was able to see my pet last minute, sent me photos and locked my door the right way! really appreciate how she went above and beyond even though I messaged her <30 min before I needed a visit! very quick to respond and great communication, would love to use her services again”


About: Hi, pet parents! I’ve always loved dogs and enjoy spending time with them. I’m active, reliable, and have a flexible schedule to accommodate your pup’s needs. I'd love to take your dog on a fun and safe walk! I am an online college student and I also work remotely for my part time job so I have a very flexible schedule for pet care. I love to go on long walks and there are plenty of trails and quiet roads by my house to keep walks interesting and safe!

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was a child, and for the past 7 years, I’ve been independently caring for them. From big to small breeds, I’ve handled a variety of dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve provided drop-ins for bathroom breaks, feeding (including dogs with allergies or specific requirements), and I’m always excited to take dogs for walks and hikes. I’m experienced with both skittish pups and energetic jumpers—jumping doesn’t bother me, and I know how to manage it safely. I’ve also cared for dogs with basic health needs like administering pills or shots. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I truly miss the companionship and bond that comes with spending time with a furry friend. I currently work 5 days in office. While I may not be able to stop in during the day, I have availability before and after work. I work between the hours of 8am-5pm, but I can be flexible based on your and your puppy’s need! I believe in the importance of meeting both the family and the dogs prior to sitting. This helps establish trust and ensures a smooth transition for both the pet and the family. I understand that it can be stressful for a dog to have a stranger in their home, so I like to take the time beforehand and allow the dog to become familiar with me.

Brianna L.
“Brianna is the best pet sitter and our go to gal for watching our animals when we travel. She has done a wonderful job taking care of our reactive pup, putting in extra care to continue consistent training and keeping him out of trouble. She has even enchanted our cranky cat and has helped manage his medication needs from inhalers and pills to injections. Admittedly, I have a tough household to manage, but Brianna makes it look easy. Brianna is incredibly detail oriented, and has always followed our directions exactly which is such a relief as a pet parent. I couldn’t imagine leaving my pets with anyone else.”
