“Julia is the BEST!!! She is so great at updating with lots of pictures and really amazing at making sure our dog gets lots of exercise! We feel 100% comfortable to leave our fur babies in her care. Highly recommend Julia’s services for whatever pet care you need!!!!”

“Makayla was so respectful of our home while she house sat our dog and cats. We came back to happy pets and a house as clean as we left it. She was super responsive and gave me updates and photos anytime I texted. We will definitely book with her again!”

“Samantha was fantastic! She sent us pictures when she popped in to check on our dogs. She cleaned up any messes they made and kept us updated on their general demeanor. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Sierra was great with our dogs, and they were very calm and content when we arrived back from our trip. She also helped out with a couple household things, that was greatly appreciated! She sent an update everyday as well.”

“Avery was so amazing! She was so sweet and our dog liked her immediately. She gave us updates and pictures everyday! Super quick communication and very flexible! We felt so confident leaving our dog with her. We will definitely use her again if we go out of town😊”

“Oceana is AMAZING. We recently moved to the area and had to jet off quickly for a family emergency. Not knowing anyone yet, we crossed our fingers that someone on Rover would work out. We feel SO lucky to have found Oceana! She sent tons of updates and most importantly, our pup ADORES her. We can’t say enough good things about her!”

“Tamilyn is so wonderful! She was respectful of our home and very attentive to our Ruby. She went above and beyond making sure she was comfortable while we were away. We had great communication with picture updates. I highly recommend her to watch anyone's furbabies! We will definitely be requesting her again!”

“Luckily our cats and dog still like us a bit more than Eva, though it's close! She did a great job taking care of them and it showed. Our kitty recently had spay surgery and Eva handled the meds just right. She even made us muffins!”

I work 4 hours at a time at most, and am available every night to care for your dog I am comfortable walking dogs in any neighborhood and for any period of time. I can give frequent potty breaks and crate the pet if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs most of my life. I’m the first person my family or friends call to come house sit for them so they don’t have to board their animals. I do some light house work, hangout with the animals, and give them lots of love while their parents are away I’m currently a single stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can do weekends or weekdays- let’s try and make it work with your schedule I’ll play with the animals outside as much as possible. Take them on a walks if they do not of great recall and in my free time in between taking care of the animals I do some light house work
“Laura was able to take this assignment at the last minute after a family friend had a change of plans and wasn’t able to stay with my dogs. She was very accommodating and did everything I asked!”


About: I have grown up with a dog my whole life. When I was very young we had a Yorkie named Rex. And for the last 11 years we have had an energetic yellow lab named penny. We trained her ourselves and now she is very well behaved. I love dogs and am great with them. I love to play them just as much as they do! I currently work part time most days of the week but have a fairly free schedule since my shifts aren’t that long. I go to sleep late and wake up early so my days are open! I live in a house with a fenced yard big enough for a dog to play fetch in. My roommates love animals too so all pets will be welcomed. I am willing to stay at anyone’s home and will be respectful of any house rules that are set.

About: I grew up around both dogs and cats, and I plan to grow old with them. Right now I have three cats, 17 year old litter mates Trixie and Jynx, and a one year old Goose. My old ladies both take medicine every day and all three cats have different diets, so I am used to very involved care. I pet sit regularly for family and friends, sending frequent updates through pictures, videos, and texts. I'll keep you as involved as you'd like. Helping people has always come naturally to me. I spent a year working as a caregiver for the elderly in their homes, and I had a housecleaning business for 3 years. I am very respectful of people's homes and their privacy. My schedule is very flexible. My work is grocery delivery, light housecleaning, babysitting, and pet sitting. The only time I'm unavailable is Tuesdays 7a-2p. My main goal is to make your pet feel safe and comfortable. I will introduce myself slowly if they're scared, or match their energy if they're excited. I'll gladly help with medication or complex food preparation, and I understand the importance of clean litter boxes. When I take your dog outside it's not only potty time, it's exercise, exploration, and playtime. If your cat is high energy, I'm happy to spend time with a laser pointer or cat wand.
About: I have had my dog for 4.5 years and really enjoyed raising and training her. Outside my home, I have helped friends and family with house-sitting, dog walking, and check-ins/potty breaks. I currently work part-time, so my schedule is quite open! I am available for services any time on weekends and on weekdays after 2 pm. I have a fenced back yard, and a gate at the front of my house, so your pet will be entirely secure! There is a patio and grass in the back, leaving space for zoomies. Inside is an open floor plan with space to play while being supervised and safe!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other animals. I grew up on a hobby farm in upstate New York, so caring for animals has always been a part of my life. From feeding and grooming to understanding different personalities and needs, I learned how important patience, consistency, and love are when it comes to animal care. I got my first dog, a German Shepherd named Zany, when I was 3 years old, and dogs have been a huge part of my life ever since. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and reliable companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll treat your animals like family. I am currently at home full time, so have plenty of time and attention to share! I’m currently available for boarding both during the week and on weekends, or can do drop-in visits if that works better for you. I have a large 1/2 acre lot (on a quiet cul-de-sac) for frequent potty breaks, play, and leg stretches. Even though my yard is not fenced, I live less than a block away from the local dog park - with sections for large and small breeds - so I can easily walk them there if they love being social, like me!
About: I grew up having dogs and cats around me constantly. When i reached a certain age my mom started having me help her out with the animal and ive been walking, playing, washing etc dogs since i was 13! I am currently a college student and work part time so my days can be different. I will be happy to discuss this when we meet! Being in college I cannot keep dogs or cats with me overnight but I can help you in your home. If you need me to crate them or do anything like that I can!
About: I've cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life & I also have experience working as a kennel tech at an animal hotel. I'm always the first to gladly care for my friends/familys pets when they need the help/go out of town. I love any opportunity to care for animals ♡ I'm currently a freelance artist so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! I love being outdoors & driving so never a problem to fit in animal care! I'm good at making lists of everything that needs to be done & acting accordingly. I love to keep things clean & taken care of. I'll make sure your pet feels seen & loved when I'm there ♡
