“Emma was wonderful with my cat while I was away! She made notes every day about how she was doing, and made sure to always update me with pictures and videos. Will 100% rebook her in the future!”

“Brooklyn did a drop-by visit and took great care of our three dogs. She provided updates and pictures while she was at our house. We so appreciate her being flexible when our plans changed a little. We had a stress-free experience and would highly recommend Brooklyn!”

“We had a great meet and greet with Kaitlin. She explained everything clearly and took charge right away, which made us feel super comfortable. Inno responded really well to her. She even gave us things to work on with him until her next visit, which we really appreciated. We’re excited to see his progress and definitely recommend her!”

“Shelbi is great!! She really cares about the animals and makes sure she does all she can to make sure they are happy and well cared for. I love the daily updates with pictures! I have a super shy kitty that doesn't come out for most strangers and he has come around to her! Yay! I highly recommend her! Thanks Shelbi!!”

“Maura accepted our last-minute request to provide drop-in care for our cats and bird when an unexpected trip came up. We trusted her from our first meeting with her and she did a great job! She communicated with us and sent photos from every visit. We will definitely reach out to her when we need to travel again!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life, ranging from 10+ cats, little shi tzus and Pomeranians, and up to a 130+ lb Rottweiler! I love animals of all sorts, and caring for them is my true passion. I believe pets are the most precious companions people can have, so they should have the love as possible to accommodate that ! I am currently in college, and I do not have a technical job, though I sometimes do grocery delivery orders, I usually spend my time studying. I have a shi-tzu who is super playful and sweet, I do not have a yard but there is a huge field next to my home where I take my dog to go potty.
About: Hi! I'm Hillary. My three kids and I have been taking care of pets while their owners are away for over 3 years now! My kids and I love to have new dogs to play with and go on walks/hikes with. We try to make their stay as comfortable and normal to them as we can! We know it can be stressful sometimes so let us help put your mind at ease! We have 2 dogs of our own, Boof and Steve who love to have friends come over! I work from home so I'm always available but if I can't be there, I have Andrew my s/o, help out with whatever needs done. Usually, drop offs/pick ups if the time is while I'm at work. Also, special feeding times, potty breaks , etc. We make a great team! I like to know as much about their regular schedule as I can. In hopes to make their stay less stressful for them. Potty breaks are supervised and/or leashed. I will send you photos and updates daily. While your pet is with us, we love them as our own!
“This was our second time having Jessica as our cat sitter, and once again it was a wonderful experience. The first time she cared for our cat Priscila, and this time she also looked after our new kitten Pepper. Given it was Pepper’s first time being without us for multiple days, Jessica provided extra attention and playtime, which was exactly what she needed. We loved the detailed Rover cards with adorable pictures of our kitties. We highly recommend Jessica!”

About: I have owned dogs, cats, horses, chickens, cows, fish and birds. I love animals and I currently have none! I believe in treating a pet with the same respect that I want to be treated. I am very patient and understanding of various personality traits and needs. I am a full time teacher so I am available outside of the teaching time and during my breaks and days off! I am very flexible. I have the week of Thanksgiving off work, plus 2 1/2 weeks at Christmas and I have weekends, evenings and early morning available. If you need the pet to stay at my house, that's no problem, either. I have a fenced in yard and pet-friendly furniture. I treat pets like humans, I have a fenced in yard and I give lots of attention. I can go for walks if needed and I have pet friendly furniture. I can also come to your house, too. I am open to whatever works for you and your pet.
About: I keep an open communication with complete honesty with the owners, I love interacting with the animals and love getting the chance to get to know them with love and affection Every week is different for me so I’d like to keep an open communication with anyone and everyone. So when someone needs my services I’ll keep open communication with honesty. I will feed, water, give treats, let them use the bathroom, and interact/play with the animals for a short time to with the best of my abilities.
About: I have been passionate about animals since I got my first pet (a white kitten which I named Snowball) at age 3. I have had numerous dogs and cats since then as both an owner and a foster. Though I do not have a degree in veterinary science, I am very knowledgeable about animal behavior and am competent in caring for the various needs of man's best friends. I have raised puppies and kittens and currently have three large senior dogs (age 11) and am cognizant of the unique needs of pets both young and old. I also care for exotic animals - I own two bearded dragons, two leopard geckos and a turtle. I have done extensive research on the care and keeping of furry and scaly friends alike. I look forward to being a meeting your best friend(s). I work a full-time job Friday through Sunday. I am available Monday through Thursday. I can accommodate any time frame that suits you and your pet. I am very fastidious about cleanliness and safety. You can expect me to treat your pet like family. I am a natural problem-solver and am very in tune with animal behavior. Your pet's safety and comfort are my utmost priority.
About: I have had my dog since I was 8 yrs old I am 18 now and I’ve trained her to do almost anything. I am very patient with animals I let them get used to me and comfortable before I do anything. I now have 2 dogs both smaller. I cared for a large dog for a year he was over 100 pounds. super sweet and loving he was my best friend. Unfortunately I had to move and I couldn’t bring him with me I miss him very much, so I am a big fan of larger dogs. I am currently working 2 jobs 1 every weekend Friday-Sunday. The other job is part time on either Mondays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays. My work schedule isn’t set permanently so I get most weekdays off. I am currently living with roommates so I will have to come to your residence, but that is not a problem for me especially since the pet will already be comfortable with the environment. When I meet a new pet I am very patient with them I will let them come to me to be sure they are okay with me being in their territory.
“Sharon was fantastic!! We are new to the area and needing to find someone to watch our furbabes while we were away. She answered all of my many questions and was so patient and kind. Our dogs loved her and were so spoiled when we got home!! We couldn't be happier and will 100% use her again! Highly recommend!!”
“Ashley has done a great job caring for our cat on several occasions while we have been out of town. Always provides good photos and updates and goes above and beyond.”

About: I have had and helped take care of a dog my entire life. I have also taken care of my neighbor, family, and friends dogs for many years. I am currently in high school, so I can take care of any pets on the weekends or any time after three, I have always taken care of my dog when I get home as I am the first one home usually. I have taken care of dogs that do not have fences before and I’ve done great at that. I like to play with mine and other peoples dogs while I watch them to keep the company or just pet them if they are older.
“Aliece is just the gentle, loving spirit that our cats needed. We are so glad we found her. She took good care of our kids for the week we were gone, giving them attention and affection. She provided updates, with pictures and some videos, to let us know how they were doing. They clearly warmed up to her quickly. Even our 15 year old female cat, who is typically very timid and cautious, approached Aliece for petting on multiple visits. We were a bit surprised, and pleased, by that. :)”
“Frank once again, was a trusted sitter for our Elvis!! Elvis is wearing a cone at this time for a medical reason and is a Sr. dog. Frank follows through all the detailed instructions so Elvis's routine is the same and comfy as if we were here. Thanks Frank!”

About: I love all animals. I have more than four years of pet-sitting experience. I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. I have experience working with therapy and service animals. I absolutely love pets and am always up for new experiences. I work as a nurse three days a week. I am free during most days and weekends. I work night shift, so I can dog sit overnight on nights I work if your pup is crate trained. On days that I am off, I am free at all hours. I currently have two pups at home that are both very friendly and playful. They are crate-trained, so if your dog does not like other animals, I can keep them separated. i have plenty of indoor and outdoor space for the pups to play and hang out in.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my entire life since I was 10 so that’s like 50 years. We’ve had mini cats we’ve raised cocker spaniel puppies. I’ve had a farm when I was in eighth and ninth grade took care of goats pigs, chickens, ducks we had a lot of cats on the farm and dogs. I am right now currently just a part-time work from home. Remote worker doing computer data entry to my availability is open. I normally am available pretty much every day of the week. I will not be having animals in my own home only because I have two cats of my own. And no closed in yard so I would be just doing in a client’s home.
