“We had such a great experience leaving our dog with them in their home. She was clearly so comfortable and well loved, and we got updates that made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Millie came home happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. We’re so grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to have her stay with them again—highly recommend!”
“Cannot recommend Sue enough. She watched our dog George while we were away for over two weeks and he had incredible time with her. She was very responsive and kept in touch with lots of pictures and videos. George requires daily medication and a bit of extra care and Sue made sure he had everything he needed so that we could enjoy our time away without worrying. Thanks Sue!!”
“WE are delighted with Julia & her family's treatment of Max, our beloved Berniece Mountain & Poodle cross. Couldn't be any better. The love & affection was perfect. We will use her again for sure. Shraga & Alicia.”
“Sandra and her family are absolutely lovely! She gave my dog so much love and attention, was great at sending me photos and updates and super quick communication. Highly recommend!!”
“Aylin was absolutely wonderful with Qiuqiu! She is incredibly caring, attentive, patient, and responsible. She treated Qiuqiu like a member of her own family and made sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for throughout her stay. She also took her out for walks and fun outings every day and kept us updated with lovely photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We could really tell how much she genuinely loves and cares about animals. Qiuqiu looked so relaxed and happy with her! We feel very lucky to have found Aylin and would absolutely trust her with Qiuqiu again. Highly recommended! ❤️🐾”
“Despite the late hour, thank you so much for responding and helping us on such short notice. Zhikun and his family handled my three dogs calmly and skillfully, making me feel at ease from the very beginning. They took great care of them with regular walks, and on the last day, they even gave them a shower and sent them home with a thoughtful gift, which I truly appreciated. Zhikun also runs a pet shop, which further reassured me of his experience and reliability. I’m very grateful for the care they provided and would highly recommend them.”
“We are so thankful for Trudy looking after our cat for two weeks. She invited us over before hand to look at the space and do a little meet and greet. She committed very well before, during and after. We really appreciated all the photos and videos sent. Thank you again Trudy for taking such good care of Freya.”
“Lakota has stayed with several sitters around the country through Rover and this is the 1st time I have received pictures and videos of him "HAPPY". These sitters are amazing, very attentative, and truly care for the pups that come into their lives if only for a few days. Thank you so much!!!”
“It was our first time leaving our dog for 3 days, and we honestly couldn’t be more grateful to have left her with Connie. Her schedule was followed and she got so much attention, treats, and love, especially during playtime with her dogs, cats, and family! We felt very at ease the whole time we were away knowing she was in such good hands.”
“Maye and Frank were absolutely amazing in taking care of our puppy, Kiana. From the moment we met them, it felt like we had known them forever. They were incredibly warm and welcoming, which made us feel at ease right away. Throughout the weekend, we received regular photos and updates, which showed just how much Kiana was enjoying her time with them. It was clear she was in great hands and having a blast. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters. We highly recommend Maye and Frank to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring dog sitters. They truly went above and beyond, and we’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
“Nairoby took wonderful care of our dog, Leo, while we were away for a few days. She was flexible with timing, clearly loves dogs, and sent frequent updates that gave us peace of mind. Leo was a happy boy. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Mandy and Jacky are the most attentive, loving, and caring sitters. Our dog Oscar is a senior and has some special needs when it comes to eating and they so accommodating. We could tell he loved being with them and spending time with them. In fact, he made himself at home right away! Thank you again, and hopefully Oscar will have another opportunity to stay with you!”
“Thank you for taking such amazing care of our dogs. We know that they are in such a good care when they are in your hands. We received daily updates of our dogs having a great time with Coco. We plan on boarding them again soon.”
“Yijie was an amazing dog sitter. My dog is quite anxious, and this was the first time I had ever left her while traveling, but Yijie made the whole experience so reassuring. She was very attentive to all the details I shared about my dog’s feeding, walks, and moods, and she took her on several walks and little outings. She also kept me updated with lots of photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was clearly comfortable and well cared for. I’m very grateful and would absolutely trust Yijie again. Highly recommend!”
“Amazing. 👏 🤩 She took such awesome care of Dexter, kept me up to date. Even made him custom food when my guy was I'll. She sent lots of pictures 📸. I did not have to stress or worry. I think Dexter just made himself at home.”
About: I have a unique skillset with dogs and I'm experienced and comfortable with challenging dogs of all sizes. We recently said goodbye to our 14 year old rescued Catahoula, which gave me hands on training for dogs with severe anxiety and senior care. Structure, leadership, and the ability to form a bond are my top qualities. I work from home and always have time for animals! Whether it's a drop in and play, walk, or boarding at my home, dogs will always get my full attention. Looking after your pet is a responsibility I don't take lightly. I'm always reachable by phone and will send frequent updates to you via text or email about your pets well-being while in my care.
“I cannot thank Hillary enough. She has been so so patient with my senior boy 🥹☺️. All the updates and adjustments she needs to do for him, it’s so comforting for me knowing that she cares for my fur baby. I definitely recommend her if you need someone to look after your fur baby. Thank you lots again Hillary!”
“Rui was amazing! This was our first time leaving our pup, and she made us feel completely comfortable and confident. Our dog has separation anxiety, but Junie warmed up to Rui quickly, which meant so much to us. Rui was patient and attentive in meeting her needs, kept us updated with regular photos and videos, and truly cared for Junie like her own. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book with her again ♥️”
“Sky was with Benjamin and his family for 3 weeks and she had such a great time! We were kept up to date consistently with photos and videos and were very assured that she was well taken care of during her stay. Definitely recommend them for boarding your pet!”

“Lily-Mae is very kind and polite. Our cats took to her immediately and when we came home, they were all calm, groomed and in good spirits.

Knowing Lily-Mae was keeping an eye on our pets was a huge relief! Absolutely would recommend her and our pets would too! Thanks so much!”
“Narjis did such a wonderful job caring for our kitties and other creatures (fish and frogs in various tanks) while we were away. She communicated clearly, asked questions when needed and was extremely reliable and caring. She went out of her way to ensure our very sneaky cat was safe and did not escape- which is a feat in itself. We would definitely recommend her and will be looking to have her care for them again in the future.”
About: With experience both professionally and personally, I am the ideal pet sitter and dog walker. I have over 5 years of experience working in two different pet stores. Not only did I interact with a variety of cats and dogs everyday day, I also gained an extensive amount of knowledge about pet foods, diet, care, etc. I have also grown up with cats and dogs my entire life. Currently I have two cats (one of them is a senior) and a 110lb Black Lab (not my only large dog experience!) I have also sat for many dogs and families, and have lots of experience with walking as well. I currently work Monday-Friday, however, am flexible so can be available for dog walks @ most times (with enough notice). I am available weekends, and weekdays for sure before 11am and after 5pm - but I can be available for 30mins/1hour in between those hours if needed. In my home, we have a full fences in back yard where we let my dog run free. We also go on at least 2 bigger walks everyday, allowing for more exercise and sniffs. He is also kennel trained. I could do the same in your home and with your furry companion, or do whatever it is that works for you and your dog.
About: Cats aren’t just part of my work, they’re part of my life. I share my home with two wonderful senior cats, so I understand the unique needs, quirks, and personalities our feline friends bring. I’m patient with shy or anxious cats, gentle with seniors, and tuned in to the small signs that tell me how they’re feeling. Whether it’s giving medication, keeping routines consistent, or offering calm companionship, I make sure every cat gets the VIPaws treatment care that’s as individual as they are.
“Yaqiu is an absolute star cat sitter! She is so attentive and thoughtful, keeping his litter and water fresh and even offering to let his food warm up to room temperature before feeding time. Our Sam was doing his signature belly twirls for her (his ultimate sign of trust!). Will definitely book Yaqiu again!”
“Moose was very happy with Lin, picked him up and wasn’t overly shy, which he’s always shy with new people. Not sure how much interaction Moose had with Lin’s dog, but he clearly felt safe enough to not bolt off the moment he got to their house! Would strongly recommend 😊”
About: Been in the veterinary industry since 2015. Was in wildlife refuge before that. Graduated from the Thompson Rivers University's Animal Health Technology program where we learned extensively of animal care and behaviour. I have a sassy seven year old domestic shorthair which I love dearly. I will not be available between 9am - 8pm due to being a veterinary technician at various vet hospitals. However I can manage my time well before and after those times for dog walking and possibly sitting as well. I am well versed in the calm and playful care of cats and dogs from my 10 + experience in the veterinary industry. This program allows us to interact with various canines and felines in a daily basis.
“Jiawei took care of our two cats while we were on vacation for three weeks. He was very flexible, which we greatly appreciated! He did everything we asked, and our cats remained safe and healthy. I would trust Jiawei with my cats again.”
“Farren did an outstanding job. We have a high anxiety cat that we have never left along before. She sent photos with updates and kept my mind at ease while we were away. She is kind, patient, professional and went above and beyond for our 2 cats. When we returned home, our condo was neat and tidy. The cats were very calm and relaxed. Would highly recommened Farren to anyone looking for a wonderful pet sitter. We will most definitely be using her services again !! Thanks so much Farren !!!!!🥰😊😻”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience, caring for cats, both professionally and personally while working at pet value I became familiar with feline behavior, nutrition and grooming needs, and often helped customers choose the best products for their cats outside of work. I’ve provided constant care for neighbours and family member cats, including feedings, administrating medication and keeping them comfortable while their owners were away. What set me apart is my patience and ability to quickly build trust with even the shyest cats something I’ve learned through experience and genuine love for animals.
About: I am an 30 year old care aid who is an animal lover, I have two cats and a bearded dragon of my own.

I’ve walked dogs, fed and bathed them, provided mental stimulation and a safe environment for your pets. I’ve had experience in administration of medication to cats and dogs. I have some experience with exotic pets ( ie reptiles and birds). I do have a car so transportation is possible. Looking forward to connecting with you. At the moment I work a very flexible schedule as I am trying to gain more clients for my pet care service. I try and keep my schedule clear in the morning and evenings 7am-10am and 5pm-10pm, and overnight. As I gain more clients this will change to accommodate for better hours. During walks I like to check in with photos to update clients, keep track of bowel movements and engage in play. For in home service I provide walks, play, medication administration, frequent updates, light cleaning, feeding and bathing if needed.
About: From a young age I’ve been surrounded and extremely fortunate to grow up around dogs and cats. Due to this I have become extremely comfortable around a mix of animals with different personalities. I am quick at understanding what needs are required to keep my little fur babies content and amused. I am currently in between work since I’ve started a family. My schedule is flexible and can be availability most days and hours. Short or long segments wouldn’t be a problem. I’ve had dogs growing up and currently have two loving happy kitties at home with me. At times I had both dogs and cats which was a good training experience keeping them calm and content. I’ve assisted with pet sitting on multiple occasions. It’s very important to create a bond and connection which I excel at.
About: I have more than 10 years experience in animal husbandry. I have always been surrounded with animals since I was a child. I am a sensitive and calm person. I am flexible and trustworthy. Compassionate for people and animals. I have a genuine love for animals, I tend to connect with them, specially with older dogs. I am reliable and responsible individual. I am detail oriented so I just don't do the necessary job but i go for that extra mile. I have a closed yard and a park by my side for your dog to play in with me and the squirrels. Your dog with me is in great hands. It will be my pleasure to take care of your dog. I speak english, spanish and hebrew (in case you want me to talk to your dog in one of those languages :)).

“Jenney was thoughtful and attentive, and followed all the intricate instructions for a young puppy. My little guy loves her and almost didn't want to leave! 10/10 would book again. I know who to go to when I need someone to watch my little Obi next time!”
About: I spent 15 wonderful years raising my own dog, which taught me just how much trust it takes to leave your pup with someone new. I take care of every dog with the same patience, attention, and calm presence as I’d want my dog to be cared with. Your dog will feel safe, comfortable, well cared for. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups ! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays .

The updates and care you provided meant a lot to me. I truly appreciate your dedication and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you again for treating my dog like your own!”
“Minjeong was so great with our dog and very accommodating. My dog's separation anxiety has returned and so he's been a lot more nervous about things lately, and has always been nervous around new people. She went at the pace he was comfortable and he warmed up to her quickly. We will definitly book with Minjeong again. Thank you!”
“James was great! We had to book last minute and he was happy to help. Xhiggy came back exhausted. His backyard is great and he also took X for a beach walk. Very attentive for our Girl. Thank you James.”
About: I hade previous experience walking dogs before, all sizes. I’ve volunteered in animal shelters. VTA certificate, trained and my friends and family always refer to me to take care of their pets knowing I would be happy to do it. I currently have open availability.

I live in a pet friendly neighborhood with a lots of free space around to take walks, a beach close to me and a space for crate.
“Sara was great, she clearly knows dogs very well. My dog is 95 lbs, has unreliable recall, and can be reactive to certain things, but after meeting Sara and chatting a bit, I felt 100% confident that she could handle him. Will be using her services regularly.”
“I recently moved here, so I didn’t have a friend who can help me by taking care of my dog when needed. She became a wonderful friend. My doggie also loves her and her cute kids. While going for a walk, my dog and I encountered her family, causing my dog to wag his tail vigorously and rush towards them. 🤣 I always appreciate her help.”
“We felt such comfort and peace of mind that our Dashi was in such caring hands with Ashley and Kelvin. Professional, considerate, and friendly with regular updates and wonderful photos! Dashi got some good cuddle time in, which we were so happy to see. Loved that Dashi could have a great walking buddy, Charlee, too.”
“This was my first time using Rover and booking a sitter with whom my dog was unfamiliar. We were both nervous! But, everything went swimmingly. I received updates throughout the day, with pictures, from which I could see Ruthie was being well cared for. I will certainly book these sitters again!”
“Connie was incredibly communicative throughout Soba’s stay and sent many photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind. My dog was also in heat during her stay, and she handled everything so well, including managing her diaper. It was clear that Soba was very well cared for. We really appreciated how attentive and thoughtful she was—would definitely book with her again!”
About: What sets me apart is my ability to understand and adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s a high-energy dog who needs mental stimulation or a shy cat who needs space, I tailor my approach to make every animal feel safe, respected, and happy. I also send regular updates with photos and maintain great communications with pet owners. I’m currently working fully remotely at home so my schedule is fairly flexible with pets sitting. Monday to Friday I can walk pets 3 times a day, and weekends are usually more flexible. I care for pets in a warm, homey environment located in a dog-friendly neighborhood by the lake. Dogs in my care enjoy regular walks with beautiful lake views, safe outdoor play, and plenty of one-on-one attention. My community is very pet-friendly, which means your dog will feel welcome and at ease. I stick to their usual routine as closely as possible—whether that’s meal times, play sessions, or medication. Whether your pup is active or more laid-back, they’ll have a relaxing, enriching stay with lots of love and supervision.
“Amazing, accommodating and great communication throughout the booking and during our pup’s stay. It was our first Rover experience and it was perfect. Lots of other dogs to play with, a ton of photos through the stay making us feel comfortable. We’ll definitely be back!”
“We had a great experience with Bella! Enzo is a very anxious dog and usually has a hard time when he's away from his people so I was worried about leaving him. Bella was incredibly patient and caring, and I was so happy to hear that Enzo was actually calm and didn't cry/whine while he was with her. It says a lot about how comfortable and safe she made him feel! She also kept me updated with lots of photos and videos! I would definitely trust her to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dogsitter!”

“Aylin is amazing ! She takes our dog on nice walks and I can tell she has a passion for animals. Love the walk updates and photos. She is so sweet to work with, and my rescue dog got comfortable with her easily. We love you! 🥰”
“Iona took care of our dog, Toby, for 6 days, and it was truly a full-time responsibility, which she handled exceptionally well. From the very beginning, she was reliable, trustworthy, and clearly experienced with dogs. We entrusted her with our house key, and she treated both our home and Toby with great care and respect. She went above and beyond by taking Toby on long walks—more than we ever expected—and consistently kept us updated with photos. Seeing how happy, relaxed, and well cared for Toby looked gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that Toby really liked her and felt comfortable in her care. We truly appreciate the effort, dedication, and love Iona showed while looking after Toby. For any fur parents in Langley or anywhere in BC, we would confidently recommend Iona and would absolutely contact her again in the future. Thank you so much, Iona! 🐾💛”
“Iris was great with Dolly! Dolly can be apprehensive of new people but within minutes Iris won her over. Off they went on their walk and Dolly loved it. Thank you Iris! Dolly has a new friend.”
About: 🇬🇧 🇨🇳 🇯🇵; feel free to pick the language you are comfortable with :) 欢迎联系我 日本語対応できます、ご連絡お待ちしております I've been taking good care of my cats since they were 5 months old and adopted from the KW Humane Society in Ontario.

“Raveen walked Scout for the first time, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment they met, Scout bonded with her immediately, which says so much because he's usually a great judge of character. Raveen was warm, patient, and clearly has a natural connection with dogs. She kept me updated, took wonderful care of Scout, and made his first week with her completely stress-free. It was obvious that Scout felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for. It's such a relief knowing he's in such capable and caring hands. I highly recommend Raveen to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and genuinely amazing dog walker. We can't wait for Scout's next walk with her!”
“Christine is a great walker. She is very considerate of my dog's needs and knows how to handle his reactivity. Enzo doesn't just go with anyone and he likes going for walks with Christine. Thank you Christine!”
About: I offer a unique blend of animal expertise and caregiving experience. Having raised two cats from the kitten stage over the past three years, I completely understand high-energy behavior, feline routines, and the patience required for young animals. I also spent a summer walking a neighbor’s dog, so I am confident managing dogs on a leash and giving them great outdoor exercise. Beyond pet care, I regularly babysit children, which has made me incredibly responsible, highly adaptable, and excellent at following strict safety guidelines and schedules. Additionally, my background caring for turtles and goldfish means I am very detail-oriented with specialized habitats and feeding routines. As a student, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to easily weave dedicated pet care into my week. Because I already manage a daily routine caring for my own two cats, keeping track of strict feeding times, refreshing water, and providing plenty of love is second nature to me. Balancing school, babysitting, and pet care has made me an expert at time management, so I always have dedicated, predictable blocks of time to focus entirely on your pet's needs, whether that means an energetic mid-day walk or a cozy evening check-in. In your home: My priority is keeping your pet's environment safe, calm, and clean. Just as I do when babysitting, I follow your exact instructions for feeding, routines, and any specific habitat maintenance (like litter boxes or tanks). I treat your home with total respect, and I love sending daily photo and text updates so you have complete peace of mind while you're away. On walks & outdoor play: Safety is my number one focus. I ensure all collars, harnesses, and leashes are perfectly secure before heading out. I stay completely alert to our surroundings, keep dogs on a firm leash, and make sure they get a fun, refreshing walk tailored to their energy level so they return home tired, happy, and well-hydrated.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and routine. From walks and playtime to calm companionship, I’m attentive and adaptable to what your dog needs. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including seniors, so I’m patient and mindful of different energy levels and care needs. Your dog will be safe, happy, and well looked after with me. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I’m able to plan my days around the needs of the pets I’m looking after, whether that’s daytime visits, walks, or check-ins. I value being reliable and consistent, so you can count on me to show up as planned. currently offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and occasional overnight care in my clients’ homes. During drop-in visits, I make sure your pet’s basic needs are fully taken care of—feeding, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks—as well as spending quality time with them through play, companionship, or calm presence depending on their personality. For dog walks, I tailor the pace and length to your dog’s energy level and needs, making sure they get safe, enjoyable exercise. If I’m staying overnight, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I always follow any instructions you provide closely and make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including my own German Shepherd. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines.

I have a flexible schedule and can provide attentive care throughout the week. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, and boarding depending on the booking. I make time for walks, play, feeding, potty breaks, and quiet rest so pets can stay on their normal routine as much as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and supervised environment, and I always follow each pet’s feeding, walking, and care instructions carefully. I introduce pets slowly, monitor their behavior closely, and can separate them when needed to help everyone feel safe and relaxed.
About: I actually can’t remember a time where I have not actively been involved in the care and welfare of animals. From my family’s farm in the Cariboo to our family animal rescue on Vancouver Island. It has become a way of life for me. From bottle feeding motherless newborn kittens, hiking down a snow bank to patiently catch a dog escaped from a car accident, to nursing a blind hen abandoned by her flock - and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Life these days is a bit quieter, it includes my animal loving 5 year old daughter, and our two cats: 16 year old Snow Pea and 8 year old Blossom. In 2021 we lost our beloved senior rescue dog Keena. Caring for your dog or cat would be my absolute pleasure! My schedule is flexible to care for your pets as I work from home. My only appointments outside the home during the week would be school drop off and pick up at 9am and 3pm. I am a responsible parent to a pet savvy 5 year old daughter and two cats; a senior named Snow Pea and a rescued Persian named Blossom. I grew up surrounded by animals and over the last 20 years been involved in many facets of animal rescue. I am available for pet sitting and care in your home and I would care for your animals as I would my own.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. From fostering dogs in need, raising and training my own puppies to rescuing and adopting companions while providing patience, calming reassurance and dependable care in a peaceful and loving home. I am currently working part time, and pet care is already part of my lifestyle. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they receive the care, exercise and companionship they deserve. I strongly believe that all animals should be cared for both physically and emotionally at home. What I do to meet their needs in my home: * Providing fresh water at all times and making sure they are fed healthy meals that coincide with weight, age, and food intolerances. * Encourage 15 minute training sessions (involves delicious treats) 1-2x a day for mental stimulation and consistency. * Puppy proofed. I have created a safe space where dogs are free to roam. No access to toxic plants, sniffing out cleaning products, chewing on electrical cords, and/or small objects they could swallow. * Big, comfy beds and/or couches for a place to rest, where they can feel secure. * Maintaining a routine for meals, playtime, walks, potty breaks, and bedtime. Dogs thrive on routine! * Toys, toys toys! Puzzle feeders, sniffing games, and interactive play. * Groom regularly by brushing their coat, trimming nails, cleaning ears when needed, and brushing their teeth. * Using positive reinforcement when redirecting and correcting. I reward good behaviour with yummy treats, praise, belly rubs and/or play time instead of punishing mistakes. * Socialize appropriately with people, other dogs, and new environments to build confidence and good manners. * Monitor their health for changes in appetite, energy, drinking, bathroom habits, and/or behaviour. * Give them attention and affection. Dogs are social animals and need companionship, interaction, and love to thrive. * Respect their individual needs. Every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and comfort zone. I have a fenced yard and a dog park across from my house. Your dog will always have a furry friend to play with or if they prefer alone time, that’s fine too :) I also make my own dog and bake homemade dogs treats as well. So, if your pup is on a strict diet or is on medication- I’m no stranger to feeding them healthy and nutritious meals and/or administering their medications.
About: I’ve been fostering dogs & puppies for over 8 years now. I have one awesome Aussiedoodle who loves long walks, trail walking and runs so your dog will come along for all of that! I love taking care of and enjoying the company of other dogs and would be happy to give yours the love, attention and care it deserves when you need some extra help. I recently moved to Vancouver and would love to make some doggy friends for Bosco which is why my prices are so low! I work partially remote with 1-2 days a week in the office. The other days I am just home with my dog as I would be with yours. My dog and I love walks! We do a morning 1 hour jog, an afternoon walk for about 45 minutes and then an evening walk where I let him sniff go his hearts content.
“Michael was a total lifesaver! I needed someone to walk Indie on short notice and he was able to help out. Took Indie out and made sure he had fresh water. I would highly recommend Michael.”
About: I am an 30 year old care aid who is an animal lover, I have two cats and a bearded dragon of my own. I have past experience pet sitting for neighbors, friends/family and here on Rover for the last 7+ years. I’ve walked dogs, fed and bathed them, provided mental stimulation and a safe environment for your pets. I’ve had experience in administration of medication to cats and dogs. I have some experience with exotic pets ( ie reptiles and birds). I do have a car so transportation is possible. Looking forward to connecting with you. At the moment I work a very flexible schedule as I am trying to gain more clients for my pet care service. I try and keep my schedule clear in the morning and evenings 7am-10am and 5pm-10pm, and overnight. As I gain more clients this will change to accommodate for better hours. During walks I like to check in with photos to update clients, keep track of bowel movements and engage in play. For in home service I provide walks, play, medication administration, frequent updates, light cleaning, feeding and bathing if needed.

“WE are delighted with Julia & her family's treatment of Max, our beloved Berniece Mountain & Poodle cross. Couldn't be any better. The love & affection was perfect. We will use her again for sure. Shraga & Alicia.”
“Sandra and her family are absolutely lovely! She gave my dog so much love and attention, was great at sending me photos and updates and super quick communication. Highly recommend!!”
“Despite the late hour, thank you so much for responding and helping us on such short notice. Zhikun and his family handled my three dogs calmly and skillfully, making me feel at ease from the very beginning. They took great care of them with regular walks, and on the last day, they even gave them a shower and sent them home with a thoughtful gift, which I truly appreciated. Zhikun also runs a pet shop, which further reassured me of his experience and reliability. I’m very grateful for the care they provided and would highly recommend them.”
“It was our first time leaving our dog for 3 days, and we honestly couldn’t be more grateful to have left her with Connie. Her schedule was followed and she got so much attention, treats, and love, especially during playtime with her dogs, cats, and family! We felt very at ease the whole time we were away knowing she was in such good hands.”
“Nairoby took wonderful care of our dog, Leo, while we were away for a few days. She was flexible with timing, clearly loves dogs, and sent frequent updates that gave us peace of mind. Leo was a happy boy. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Thank you for taking such amazing care of our dogs. We know that they are in such a good care when they are in your hands. We received daily updates of our dogs having a great time with Coco. We plan on boarding them again soon.”
“Amazing. 👏 🤩 She took such awesome care of Dexter, kept me up to date. Even made him custom food when my guy was I'll. She sent lots of pictures 📸. I did not have to stress or worry. I think Dexter just made himself at home.”
About: I have a unique skillset with dogs and I'm experienced and comfortable with challenging dogs of all sizes. We recently said goodbye to our 14 year old rescued Catahoula, which gave me hands on training for dogs with severe anxiety and senior care. Structure, leadership, and the ability to form a bond are my top qualities. I work from home and always have time for animals! Whether it's a drop in and play, walk, or boarding at my home, dogs will always get my full attention. Looking after your pet is a responsibility I don't take lightly. I'm always reachable by phone and will send frequent updates to you via text or email about your pets well-being while in my care.
“Sky was with Benjamin and his family for 3 weeks and she had such a great time! We were kept up to date consistently with photos and videos and were very assured that she was well taken care of during her stay. Definitely recommend them for boarding your pet!”
“Sara was amazing! She took excellent care of our baby for more than a month. She is also very accommodating, Maive had to be on antibiotics a few days ahead of our trip and Sara made sure she got her medicines on time! We got regular updates of how she was doing that put us at complete relief during our trip! Thank you Sara!”
“The person who was supposed to look after Alfred cancelled last minute. I message Yoni and Lonni and got a really quick response saying they could take Alfred and accommodate his needs as he doesn’t get along with all dogs. They were very responsive every time I had a question and made me feel comfortable even if I hadn’t met them. We were flying early in the morning and they took Alfred at 5:30am. We messaged throughout Alfred’s stay and they sent me pictures of him playing with a lot of different dogs which I was surprised about as he can be picky. They seemed to be very knowledgeable when it came to introducing Alfred to the right type of dogs. I’m very grateful that Alfred got to stay with them. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby!”
“Jing was so nice and cheerful. My dog loves her even her kid. She will be the first person that I will contact if I need a sitter for Casper again. (hopefully she will be available) See you soon Jingjing.. My dog loves the toy that you gave him.”
