“Danni went above and beyond in taking care of my puppy during our first weekend trip away. I truly was able to relax knowing she was in good hands, as Danni is both experienced with dogs and very nurturing. I also really appreciated how she agreed to sit on such short notice, even July 4th nonetheless. She even generously cleaned up a few things at my home. I definitely recommend Danni and will continue to stay in touch!”
“We are very thankful for Matt house and pet sitting during our vacation. It was a 10 day trip and its good to have peace of mind that someone like Matti is caring for our two pets. Taking out dog Bruno to the dog park was great for a high energy pup. We will definitely book him again!”
“Had to spend several days away from my high-maintenance elderly Ella, and Kerstin managed her well. Came home to a happy and rested old girl, and I’m grateful!”
“Darlina was amazing with our babies! She provided tons of updates throughout the sitting along with photos on how everyone was doing. She provided the dogs tons play time and walks. We would definitely recommend Darlina to our friends and families.”
“Roy is a fantastic sitter, and took amazing care of my dog, I was kept me up to date on the daily happenings of my dog, and I appreciated the pictures that were sent. My dog absolutely adored Roy! It can be difficult to find a good sitter who is comfortable watching reactive, bigger, needy dogs, but you can take comfort in knowing that Roy checks all the boxes of a sitter you can trust with your pet.”
About: I approach each dog as individuals to understand their personalities. As a pet parent, I’ve owned five dogs, three of which unfortunately have moved on to the rainbow bridge. I currently have a 5 year old Aussie and a 3 year old border collie mix, both a calm and friendly to dogs, cats, and people. I work a regular job from 8am - 4:30pm M-F, with remote work from W-F. My availability are any remote days and weekends. I can watch your dogs at home during those days or check in on them after work hours and anytime in the weekends. I spoil my dogs and cats. I make sure to play with them daily and take them for walks. Having an Aussie and border collie demands it! Both our dogs know when it’s bed time and sleep in our bedroom. Luna the border collie sleeps in our bed, the best snuggle bug ever.
About: I have grown up with all types of dogs at. From small to big, lazy to crazy, and puppy to senile. Your pup will be taken care of based on their own personal needs. Each breed and age group requires different care, and I can ensure that they will be in safe hands. I am currently in school! My online classes allow me to adjust my schedule easily, so I can make sure pets get the attention they deserve. I will take care of your pets as similar as possible to how you do it. Most dogs like their normal routine, so as long as you educate me on what their day to day life is I can replicate it as much as possible to try and make them as comfortable as possible.

She is such a great person and great with all animals! Hire Alma!!!”

About: I havs Raised border collies for almost a decade. I am experienced in all life stages of dogs. With the leashes in hand, im ready for another day of paws and purpose. $20 off your first walk https://www.rover.com/sit/flynnj11150 I am available Monday-saturday, 6 days a week, with the exception of Sunday. My schedule is open, as dog waking is my primary job. I look forward to serving your pets needs. I make the effort to make the clients dog feel safe and comfortable at their home. I respect the home owners wishes in regard to their dogs routine.
About: With nearly four years of experience caring for dogs—both my own and those of other families—I’ve developed a strong understanding of pet behavior and needs. I have hands-on experience training small dogs and some larger breeds as well. I take pride in my ability to connect with animals quickly, helping them feel comfortable, safe, and at home—even when they’re missing their owners. I currently work part-time at a Physical Therapy clinic while taking online classes. Due to my schedule and my preparations for applying to Physician Assistant school, I do not have any pets of my own at this time. With this in mind, I am fairly flexible and would typically be away from the house for no more than six hours at a time. I am more than comfortable spending the remainder of the day caring for your pets. My work schedule is primarily in the mornings, from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM, Monday through Friday. I am available all day on Saturdays and Sundays. When entrusted with house sitting and pet care, my top priority is to follow the owners’ instructions carefully and precisely. While in the home, I make it a point to spend as much time as possible with your pets, ensuring they receive the attention they need and remain safe under my supervision. I take them out regularly throughout the day and, before leaving for work, I always make certain they have been let out, are fed, and have access to water to prevent any discomfort, accidents, or health issues in my absence.
