“Samantha was amazing with our 2 older cats! They are very shy but were both comfortable every time she came over, and she helped out with insulin injections for our diabetic cat as well. I would recommend anyone who needs help with their pets to contact Samantha!”


“Nikki was a top notch last min find for me and my boys…she was quick to respond, and eased my anxiety by meeting me and my pups before my drop in to ensure everyone was comfortable with each other. My anxious dog was very quick to warm up to her which proves to me she has a special way with 4 legged friends. She was attentive and gave lots of snuggles to my little buddies. Would def use her again”


“Hunter was prompt and attentive to my needs for my cats! One day a bear got into my trash and she even offered to clean it up! I have one cat that is very difficult to find and she went out of her way to find him and take a picture! I am used to detailed updates about how the check in went, but she did take pictures and text me throughout the visit so that was great! Definitely recommend!”

“Can’t recommend Midori enough! I was nervous not only leaving my dog alone for the first time but this was my first time using Rover, and she went above and beyond to make my dog (and me) so comfortable while I was away! She met us in advance to make sure it was a fit, sent me updates every day, brought him a toy, played with him and made sure he was as happy as he could be while I was gone. Very professional, and followed my instructions without any issues. Thank you so much, we will be using you again in the future!”


About: Other than owning dogs my whole life, my pet care experience has expanded through working with Educating Canines Assisting with Disabilities (ECAD) and through personal connections to house sit and take care of a variety of animals! My experience at ECAD included basic to extensive training puppies to 2 year old dogs, potty training, bathing dogs, understanding the importance of mental stimulation in dogs, playtime, dog walking (and training on how to walk / heel), understanding behavior (signs of enjoyment / fear / stress / separation anxiety, feeling threatened) with how to accommodate them, and cuddles of course! I also take care of senior dogs who require extra care and love and understand the importance of one-on-one care. I also have experience taking care of high energy dogs, dogs with medications, high maintenance dogs, multiple dogs, and different animals as well. I have taken care of a mixture of dogs, cats, lizards, etc simultaneously! I am always called to house sit for friends and family, whether it be for a drop-in visit, a walk, an overnight stay (one night, a weekend, or a whole week). I even was asked to watch a french bulldog while someone was using the bathroom at an airport! I have been told that I ensure trust in the owners and always give them a sense of relief during my stay and that they never have to think twice about their pets being taken care of and their home. I provide numerous check-ins during each day of my stay, plenty of pictures, and I am adaptable to changes in care / schedules when need be! I will treat your pet as one of my own! I understand the stress of a busy schedule and making sure your pet(s) are cared for is extremely important. Pet care fits into my daily / weekly routine due to the personal experience of owing multiple dogs at once and through my professional experience at ECAD. I understand the significance of making sure your pet is happy and well taken care of! I hope to achieve that with you! I care for pets in a clients home just the same as I would for my own pets. I accommodate to the dogs schedule and keep my care as familiar as I can to my clients. I am willing to make sure I keep my client and their pet satisfied and feel at ease. I will update my client numerous times a day, send plenty of pictures, and incorporate any accommodations / needs as necessary. I am extremely flexible and want to keep my client and their pet comfortable. Please let me know any accommodations or needs you have!

“Grace was phenomenal with our cats while we were gone. We looked forward to her daily photos (our cats never looked happier), and came home from a two week trip to a totally clean space with two happy cats waiting for us. Would absolutely recommend her and will be using her again! Thank you, Grace!”


“Maeve is upbeat, confident and friendly. She was kind and attentive to both of our pets. I appreciated the photos and multiple communications during the day. Maeve followed the plan to a “T”. I hope that she is available every time we need a pet sitter!”


“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Drake ]took amazing care of our pups while we were away—providing regular updates, photos, and making sure our dogs felt loved and comfortable. It was clear from the start that he genuinely cares about animals. Our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone responsible, kind, and trustworthy!”


About: I’ve been helping take care of my two dogs for the for the past 6 years now. I have also, this past year, been helping friends and family take care of their dogs when they are not around by feeding, walking, and showing lots of love to them! I am currently working a part-time job so I have some extra time on my hands that I would love to spend helping out with some dogs! I have 2 dogs at home that are a handful so I unfortunately cannot care for dogs in my home but in my clients home I do as told and respect their home and clean up after any messes made while I am helping out.

About: I have taken care of multiple pets since I was 6 years old. I have had dogs and cats and truly enjoy spending time with animals and providing quality care. I am available during work hours this summer, so I would be able to provide care any time during the week and at varying hours on the weekends. I currently would be more comfortable coming to a clients home to play/ give proper needs to a clients pet. I will take pets on walks and going to dog parks!

About: Taken care of different breeds, small and big dogs, cats and small critters. Trained dogs used for disabilities. I walk small dogs with a harness only, and don’t allow them to jump from high places, due to their tiny bones. I make sure they are secured before opening any door where they might run off. I have an Instagram page where I upload dogs I meet , dogs I take care of or watch , dogs that were placed in safe homes. I will take photos to give updates. Can change day to day but if notified ahead of time , can usually work around my schedule. I do check my texts and email if something changes. My dogs are sociable, always keeping an eye out, they are like little kids. There is currently a Japanese Chin, Shitzu, Pekingese, Saint Bernard, a cat, a bird and 3 guinea pigs, in the home.

About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have been pet sitting on the side for over 2 and a half years now! I mostly do overnights, making sure dogs are well taken care of and attended to. I am currently pet sitting full time, so I will be available almost every day, at any given time! Whether that’s a drop in visit or an overnight stay! I try to spend as much time as much time as I have with your dog to make sure they have been let out to go to the bathroom and exercise if needed!
