“Ashley took amazing care of our two kitties while we were on our honeymoon. We were able to have a stress-free trip knowing we could count on her to be there twice a day to feed them AND spend time with them! I will definitely be booking Ashley next time we go away, and you should too! She’s very sweet and intentional with animals. ❤️”

“Lindsay did such a good job with Lily! She came over 3 times a day to let feed her, take her out, and exercise her. She has an incredible presence with dogs. Lily took to her immediately and she usually takes a long time with new people! I definitely plan on using Lindsay to help take care of my dogs in the future! She is always available and goes above and beyond when caring for your dog! I would trust her with my beloved Lily any day!”

About: Hello! I'm an animal lover and pet-parent looking to get back into pet sitting after some time away. My husband and I welcomed a few wonderful dogs into our home through Rover a few years ago. At this point, I'd like to watch animals via drop-in visits (dogs and cats!). We've received so much great care for our cats over the years--I know how important it is to have a trustworthy person watch over your animal. I'm a friendly, type-A person with a keen attention to detail, so you can depend on me to take care of everything. Beyond standard pet care, I am comfortable walking dogs and administering oral meds. Happy to answer any questions you may have ahead of booking! I work in-office 3 days a week. On those days I can do drop-in visits before 8:30am and after 5:30pm. On my WFH days, I have more flexibility and can also do lunchtime visits. I follow the owners instructions--whatever you need is what I will provide. I'm not afraid to ask questions when something is unclear. I will be respectful of your home and pet's needs.
About: Animals have been a part of my life forever, and caring for them isn’t a job for me — it’s truly a passion. I’ve owned animals my entire life and currently have four dogs, who are very much like my kids. I understand how important trust, consistency, and love are when someone is coming into your home to care for your pet. I specialize in drop-in visits and dog walking, making sure your pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while you’re away. Whether that’s a refreshing walk, playtime, feeding, litter box care, or just some extra cuddles and reassurance, I treat every visit as if it were my own pet. I’m also a mom to three girls who absolutely adore cats and dogs and have grown up learning how to be gentle, respectful, and loving with animals of all personalities. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy in their own home. When I visit, your pets aren’t just being checked on — they’re being genuinely cared for. ❤️🐶🐱 I am of mom of 3 school aged girls! Mid day walks are my speciality! During school days off- I have little helpers that love playing with dogs and cats! (With your approval, of course!) I offer drop ins and overnight care when requested. Dogs are always happiest in their own homes. I have 4 dogs , and can accommodate 1-2 more depending on size and temperament.
About: I grew up with two dogs in my house that I was the main care taker of. We have also had Guinea pigs and rabbits. My work schedule rotates. So I would be available different days In the week. My schedule will be updated on that app weekly for my current schedule I will care for your pets like they are my own. I enjoy meeting new pets and making them happy. Dog walks are my favorite!
“Rhonda took great care of our cats while we were away. She provided timely updates on them and was very easy and responsive to communicate with. Will definitely rebook with her again!”

About: Hi there, I’m Chrissie, a dog lover with 15 years of pet care experience! Beyond prior pet care and volunteer experience, I’ve had plenty of foster dogs and my own, one less than active dog currently making it all the more fun for me to keep active dogs busy. I can care for and work with dogs with most any need both health wise and behaviorally. I love getting to know dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities and will be sure to follow any routine and needs they have as instructed. Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions if I might be a fit for what you’re looking for whether a one-time or regular need. Always happy to do a free meet-and-greet as well. Wishing you the best as you find the right care for your furry family member(s)! Although notice is great, I am happy to take last minute bookings. With my work I can easily fit my schedule to your dog's typical exercise, engagement, and feeding routine. I would care for them however you request, and however they’re used to being taken care of. I’d follow whatever care instructions you provide along with any notes shared with me during our meet and greet.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I was a kid, forms dogs to cats even chickens and lizards! I love all animals and try to give them the best care possible. I have a dog of my own who requires a lot of attention, so I’m used to energetic animals who just need someone to play with. I make sure that the animals feel comfortable with me by being calm and quiet, making sure I don’t spook them. Even just throwing a ball for a minute or two or just sitting with them and providing companionship can make a bored pet into a very happy relaxed pet. Im currently working part time so im available almost every afternoon and some mornings for walking and feeding animals. I’m also available weekend afternoons so I’m very flexible for you and your pets needs! I walk dogs in areas close to their home (around the block or down a couple streets) so they feel comfortable with their surroundings. With feeding animals I give them their space but I try to give them some company instead of just feeding and leaving without a second thought. I just want to make sure that you are comfortable with letting me take care of your lovely pets and most of all that your pets are comfortable with me!
About: I have grown up with pets in my house all my life! Whether it be cats, dogs, chickens, goats, you name it! We rescued all of our fur babies so I have seen and experienced a lot in the animal world. I am currently a full time college student and I work part time. I can drop in before school, before I go to work, and when I am out of work! I can also do other times as long as we stay in communication. As I will be doing drop in and walks I will keep your animals leashed at all times unless specified differently so there are no escapees. I love giving my fur babies treats so if you provide me with the certain kind your babies can have I will gladly give them a treat for being adorable!
About: I have been taking care of pets, including dogs, cats, and even parrots, since I was a tween! I have a lot of experience taking care of elderly and sick pets and have medical training from my time in the US Air Force, and can give medications orally, dermally, or by injection. I have loved animals since I was a kid, went on to get a PhD in parrot ecology, and now work as a Wildlife Biologist! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate most people's needs. I am extremely flexible and willing to work with folks to ensure their pets' needs are covered. I believe open communication and clear expectations are key to making sure everyone's needs are met. I will work with you and your pets to ensure their schedules and needs are fully met in your home.
“Makayla is so sweet with our dog - making sure he's having fun and getting all his needs met. She is timely and an excellent communicator which gives us great peace of mind. We highly recommend her!”
