“Emma did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats over the holidays. Even our skittish one would come out for them. We loved the daily photos we received and the quick communication. Great job, we will definitely hire again.”
About: Been taking care of pets both large and small in the vet field for around 10 years. Well versed in medication administration young or old Work full time. Plan to have many walks or check ins with your pets or availability to administer medications as needed to pets when I am booked.

“Elizabeth was amazing! She was responsive to my request, communicative about her visit, and our pup had a great time. I will not hesitate to book her again, thanks Elizabeth!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for years and have experience with both large and small breeds. I currently help care for my two Saint Bernards and have also dog sat Australian Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, and smaller dogs with my mom. As a student-athlete, I’m very active and used to maintaining routines, so I can handle walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and giving pets lots of attention and exercise. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I’m a student-athlete, so staying active and responsible is already part of my daily routine. I lift every weekday morning from 9–10am and practice from 11am–12pm, which still gives me plenty of time during the afternoons, evenings, and weekends to care for your pets. I’m used to balancing a busy schedule while caring for my own dogs, so your pets will always get attention, exercise, and reliable care. I’ve grown up around dogs and currently care for two Saint Bernards, so I’m very comfortable with large breeds and dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I’ve also helped my mom dog sit Australian Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, and smaller dogs, so I’m experienced with a wide range of sizes and temperaments. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, exercised, and cared for while keeping owners updated and following any routines or instructions closely.
“Silvana took care of our cat and 2 birds while we were out of town for the weekend. She did a wonderful job and we couldn't have been happier with the attentive care she provided. She clearly followed my instructions, sent detailed updates on how they were doing, and sent some great photos! Thank you Silvana! We would love to hire you again!”
About: No time spent with a pet is wasted! I love animals so much, and am super accommodating to the type of attention they want. My cats and dog are so important to me-as I imagine yours are to you-so I’d love to help take care of yours while you’re away! I am currently working freelance roles, so my availability is very open and flexible. This means I’m happy to accommodate yours pets usual routine times. Pets are so special. I will provide both a calming and/or energetic presence depending on their personality. I’m very reliable and on-time, and will make sure your pets needs and wants are met!
About: We offer an attentive boarding environment where dogs can be active or relaxed - tailored to what they need. We board only one pet (or pet family) at a time, so your pets receive focused attention and a predictable environment. I work from home, so I’m generally around all day for supervision, companionship, and consistency. This is a great fit for dogs who enjoy being part of the household rather than left alone for long stretches. I have a lifetime of experience caring for animals of all kinds - dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, ferrets, and more - which has made me observant, adaptable, and comfortable reading different personalities and needs. I’ve loved them all, from playful youngsters to slower seniors, anxious or outgoing, big or small. Our Home & Setup: - Large, fully fenced backyard for zoomies and fetch. - Rotating variety of interesting neighborhood walks and local adventures. - Positive reinforcement only. - Prioritize safety: no off-leash activity unless explicitly approved, separated feeding. - Canine/feline CPR & First Aid certified - Carry individual pet sitting insurance - Daily updates & photos (if desired) Our Resident Animals: We have a friendly 3-year-old female herding-mix who enjoys making new dog friends, plus two dog-savvy cats. Initial introductions are slow and intentional to prioritize safety. Best Fit/Boundaries: - We’re a flexible home, but extreme behaviors that demand uninterrupted supervision won't be the best fit (such as significant aggression or severe separation anxiety or escape artistry). - If dogs are known chewers, we ask that they be comfortable being crated. - Dogs that are known to be respectful of feline boundaries will be the best fit so everyone stays relaxed and stress-free. Meet & Greets: - Required for all boarding and drop-ins to establish familiarity and understand preferences. - Boarding meet-and-greets may happen in two steps (either same or separate day): 1. Dog introductions in a neutral location (like a local park), 2. A home visit for familiarity and cat compatibility. - For boarding stays longer than 3 days, we require a trial daycare day to confirm fit and avoid surprises while you’re away. Rover is built around dogs and cats, but if you have a more unique menagerie—let’s chat! I work from home 95% of the time but very occasionally have work obligation or appointment that keeps me away for <6 hours. Interacting with own pets is the highlight of my day and your pets will get their own special dose of attention. Indoors, your dog will have run of the house unless they are typically in a crate as part of your routine, or showing signs of needing to be separated for calming or safety reasons. They are able to sleep wherever they are comfortable - on their bed, on our bed, on the couch. Access to the outdoors is controlled. Our yard is fully fenced fenced and we have a 50 foot cable leash system if needed. We initially supervise your dog anytime they are outside, but for longer stays where trust and routine is established we may let them out together for a quick potty (<5 minutes).
“Elizabeth is always wonderful with our aging cat, Cleo. She is a happy kitty when we get back home after all the loving care she receives. Applying her medicine twice daily, lots of play time, pettings, as well as taking great care of our house while we are away. I highly recommend Elizabeth.”
About: I have tons of experience with pet-sitting. I have my own 8 year old golden doodle at home that I love and care for. She has various health issues and I am always on top of giving her medication and also her shots she needs. I have dog sat before for my neighbors and also was a dog walker for a couple summers. I love to spend time outdoors and will play with your pet for hours! I am a very responsible adult and pride myself with my accountability and kindness. I am just home for the summer so I have no work obligations, which means I can be there for your pet 24/7! I love to spend time outdoors and enjoy long walks especially in the summer! I have a fur baby at home and have raised her for the last 8 years so I have experience with pets. I take her on daily long walks and love to take her to the dog park to run around!
“This was our second time having Cynthia, and she is such a great cat sitter!! She clearly cares a lot about animals and takes great care of them. She sent newsy updates for each visit so we knew our cats were doing well. Thanks so much, Cynthia!”
“Ace helped us out on short notice to look in on Sully on days we were out. Sully got his lunch and exercise every day and Ace sent photos and updates. I really appreciated the quick communications I got back from Ace on any questions I had, and am very happy with the love and care that was provided!”
“Jeany was so great! My cat seemed to love her! She took a good amount of photos, cleaned up any messes, and had plenty of cuddle time with our gal. Next time we are away she will be my go to, if she is available that is. Thank you for giving us peace of mind Jeany.”
“Lindsay was wonderful! She took a ton of photos of my cats and provided descriptive updates on their wellbeing while I was gone. She went above and beyond with her care, including daily subcutaneous injections for my elderly cat, and both of them were happy when I got home. Would definitely recommend her care!”
“Mindy has watched our dogs a few times now and has always been on time, caring and following our instructions. She got along with our dogs immediately and I would never hesitate to recommend Mindy to others.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all energy levels, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also have experience with cats and a variety of animals. Over the years, I've cared for everything from iguanas to ferrets and truly enjoy working with animals of all kinds. I currently work part-time, typically during the mornings, which leaves the rest of my day flexible for pet care. This allows me to provide attentive care, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I have a lifelong love of animals and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. During our meet and greet, I'll take the time to learn about your pet's routine, needs, personality, and any special quirks or preferences. My goal is to provide consistent, attentive care that helps your pet feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away.
About: I have been taken care of dogs and cats for my friend and family many times. And my daughter also loves animals. I love taking dogs on walks. The community in which I live has great sidewalks for dog walking. I am currently working part time at home, so I will have plenty of time to play around and walk outside with your fur babies~ A safe, quiet, and clean environment for your fur babies to stay. fenced backyard for them to walk and play. We don’t have own pets, only accept dog or cat up to 2 in the same period.
About: I have taken care of many pets, mostly cats over the years. I have experience with grooming cats, cleaning litter boxes, cleaning mess spots, and playing with them. I also have experience walking and caring for dogs. I used to own a hamster and know how to clean out their cages and check on their food and water. I currently do not have a job and am hoping to find some families to help out here. Currently I am free almost all the time! The only things that would conflict with me being able to care for your pet would be if I am babysitting. I know how to wrangle dogs if they get to rowdy and to keep them away from other dogs if the other dog is too dangerous. I also know how mischievous cats can be and know their tricks when they are up to something.
“Zach continues to provide loving care and absolutely delightful dining experience to my Kitty, Theo. Theo is always well fed and happy when I arrive home. It is worth every star for Zach to care for your special friend. I could not recommend a better care giver. Always a wining experience. Thank you very much. Ray G.”

This was our third time hiring Silvana to pet sit for us over the weekend. We couldn’t be happier with the way she takes care of our cat and pet ducks. She clearly follows all care directions, is very gentle and kind to our pets, and is dependable with great communication. Silvana consistently goes above and beyond. I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone!
