“Katie is the absolute best! She took amazing care of our pup and our home. She goes above and beyond to provide plenty of updates and make sure your dog has a fantastic time. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”


“We had a last minute trip scheduled and was in need of assistance with our dog. Robin was very helpful, caring and delight to have helping with our dog. She kept us informed of how he was doing, eating, bathroom and behavior. Helped him out with some tummy troubles. We would definitely use Robin again. This was our first time using Rover. From this experience it won’t be our last. Thanks Robin for taking such good care of our dog”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for my own pets and fostering both cats and dogs. I'm an avid walker with a super flexible schedule, so your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and love while you're away. I treat every animal like family—because they deserve nothing less! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I have lots of availability and love being active, so I’m always ready for walks, playtime, and cuddles. My days are flexible, which means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency as often as they need. I care for pets with the same attention and love I give my own. I'm very detail-oriented, neat, and organized. I'll always follow your instructions exactly to keep your pet comfortable and your home just the way you left it. You can trust me to treat both with the utmost care and respect.

About: I absolutely love spending time with animals! Whether it is a long walk, a run, or just giving them some attention, I always enjoy it. If your pet is up for it I am always down for a run instead of a walk! I have had experience with walking dogs but am not trained to handle dogs with more aggressive temperaments on walks. I have two beautiful cats right now and have much experience taking care of cats as well as dogs. I am comfortable administering shots and medicine as my previous cat had many health issues before she passed away. Current availability: Monday/Thursday: All day Wednesday: Early morning Friday: after 4:30 pm Saturday/Sunday: before 8 am + after 5:30 pm Please note: my availability is dependent on personal plans as well, please reach out for confirmation! I currently have two indoor cats that receive a lot of love, treats, and snuggles! I wake up every day to feed them at 6 am and play with them frequently. In the past, I have loved taking dogs on runs/walks, whatever the dog seems to be in the mood for. Cherokee Park is my go-to for dog walking because of its accessible water fountains for dogs. I also definitely enjoy playing fetch with dogs during walks.

“Amber was great! She stayed at the house with our three dogs over the holiday break. She was very responsive and sent daily pictures of our fur babies! She took good care of them, cuddled them, and was a great house guest. We definitely plan on using her again!”


“Ciara was an outstanding sitter. She went above and beyond in several ways and my animals were so happy and healthy when we got home from our wedding. Ciara made us and our fur babies feel like family and checked in regularly, respected our home and cleaned up leaving a clean home for us to enjoy and relax in. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter and we can’t thank her enough! We will definitely be having her back.”


“Mary was great with both of our dogs over the weekend. She sent a ton of photo updates and seemed to enjoy spending time with them and playing with them. They’re both older and one needs medicine twice daily, which she was able to administer.”


“Owen was fantastic! He communicated well and took such great care of our sweet pup. He also took immaculate care of the house. We already have him booked for another trip. We are grateful to have found him - our pup loves him!”


About: I have experience with dogs of all kinds. One thing that separates myself from other dog walkers is that I treat each pet how I would treat my own and I treat my own like my kids. My goal is to provide the same care for your dogs as I expect for mine. Pet care is a major part of my daily and weekly routine since I own a dog walking/sitting business. I am almost always available to meet my clients needs for their furry companions. The only times when I am not available is when I am coaching basketball. Unfortunately, I do not care for pets at my home. However, when caring for pets in your home I will keep them on the exact routine as they are accustomed to to make them as comfortable as possible.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to understand their unique personality, routines, and needs. I have had many animals of my own my whole life along with pet sitting for many family members, friends, and neighbors. I am a certified veterinary assistant and have worked in a vet office for over a year now and with my hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, I’m trained to handle everything from shy rescues to high-energy pups. Pet care is a core part of my daily and weekly life — not just a job, but a commitment I truly enjoy. I build my schedule around my clients’ pets to ensure consistency, comfort, and reliability. Caring for pets in their own home keeps their environment consistent and stress-free. I follow your pet’s regular schedule for meals, potty breaks, walks, and medication. I stick to your instructions for house rules, routines, and preferences. I tidy up after myself (and your pet), water plants, bring in mail, and keep your home secure. I provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities.

“Betsy was great with my dogs! She gave them great care while we were out of town! It was super nice to receive photo updates as well! Thanks Bersy!”


“Sage was wonderful with my elderly dog Lucy who has trouble getting around. She came over for a meet and greet before her weekend stay, took terrific care of Lucy during a heat wave, communicated often and sent photos, and left my home very neat and clean! So appreciative for Sage and her loving care of Lucy!”


“Alyson was great with our 4 legged family member Rowdy. She gave him all the love he missed when we were gone. She took him for walks, sent pictures, sent videos and our house was left the way we left it. Definitely will book her again and would recommend her to anyone who asks.”


“Anamarie was very thorough in her meet and greet and genuinely wanted to know all pertinent details she would need for the stay with our dogs. We were flooded with photos and videos of the dogs while we were away, just the way we like it. She was very respectful of our home and the fur kids loved her!! Will definitely be using her again!”


“Rachel is a great house and dog sitter! My place was well taken care of, and even more importantly, I came home to a happy doggo. I could tell that my good boy had the attention and care that he needed while I was gone and it’s so nice to have that peace of mind while out of town. I would absolutely recommend Rachel to anyone that loves their pet!”

Jennifer C.
“I have a Goldendoodle, a Pitbull, and multiple cats. Jen has dog (and cat) sat for me multiple times and always goes above and beyond. She treats all of our animals as if they were her own. She even went and bought an extra harness for my pittie after she chewed through her previous one! Jen has also came just to walk our dogs. We have a new baby so it’s hard to get out with them as much as we would like to in the heat lately but that didn’t deter Jen. She walks them 3+ miles! She is super respectful of my house. Never leaves any messes behind and even cleaned up a few hairballs on multiple occasions-sorry Jen! Our animals love her and we do too. She is really great and I definitely recommend her!”
