“I found Christopher on Rover at the last minute to help with 3 visits. One of our dogs is a rescue that we’ve had less than a week; he’s being crated and I was unable to get away from work. Christopher came to my house after I messaged him and met everyone. He was kind and competent and I knew the dogs would be in good hands. He did a great job—he was on time for his visits, and sent me pictures and messages. It was such a relief to me to know that my dogs were well-cared for. I will use him again for sure!!!”

About: With a strong sense for dog body language and behavior, I naturally bond with dogs and know how to keep them engaged, playful, and calm. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior companion, I tailor their care to suit their needs and give them a fulfilling, well-balanced day. My schedule allows me to maintain consistent routines for feeding, training, sleep, and potty breaks. I offer a variety of experiences from city parks to nature hikes, giving dogs exposure to a diverse range of settings. I also provide basic training support including crate, leash/off-leash, recall, sport-based games like fetch and frisbee, and even task-based and obedience exercises—skills I’ve developed through 10+ years of experience with dogs from puppyhood to senior stages. As a graduate student currently on summer break, my schedule is wide open—and I’ve intentionally structured my time to prioritize pet care. I’m available for care throughout the day, whether that means early-morning walks, mid-day play sessions, or overnight sitting. My flexibility allows me to tailor routines around your dog’s unique needs, whether they’re energetic and need lots of stimulation or prefer a slower, calmer pace. I spend much of my time outdoors, and I love incorporating dogs into that lifestyle—hiking scenic trails, visiting off-leash parks, or just taking long neighborhood walks. I believe dogs thrive when they experience new encounters, and I work those moments of enrichment into every week. I live in a spacious, first-floor apartment with direct access to a secure patio and a neighborhood dog park—just steps outside my door. This makes potty breaks, quick outdoor play/walks, and socialization seamless and stress-free. Every day, our neighborhood hosts friendly dog meetups with well-behaved pups, offering perfect opportunities for your dog to engage with others in a safe environment. Inside my home, dogs will find a clean, calm, and organized space with plenty of enrichment. I have a variety of toys, training tools, puzzles, and games to ensure your dog stays mentally and physically stimulated—the goal is for no boredom and anxiety. I also keep a full range of grooming and cleaning supplies on hand, so whether your dog needs a simple wipe-down or a post-adventure bath, I’ve got it covered. I am well-versed in training methods and behavior management, so if your pup has specific routines or commands, I likely already have the knowledge and equipment to maintain their structure. I’m happy to reinforce crate training, leash manners, or any custom instructions you provide to ensure consistency while you’re away. I also have a well-socialized golden retriever mix who’s incredibly calm, friendly, and trained to model great behavior for other dogs. If your dog enjoys companionship, mine makes an excellent playmate. If needed, I can crate or separate the dogs for one-on-one attention or downtime—your dog’s comfort and safety always come first.

“Rheanne was fantastic! She came by to check on our two pups and was punctual, caring, and attentive. It was clear they were comfortable and well cared for in her hands. Her professionalism and kindness gave us great peace of mind. We would absolutely recommend her and look forward to booking with her again in the future!”

Alondra T.

“Kristen took such great care of my cats! They took to her right away, even the normally shy Nux. She made sure they had fresh food and water and kept their litter box clean. I received daily photos which let me know they were doing ok. Thanks so much!”

Jennifer G.

“Kyle was very patient and kind, especially considering my kitty was traumatized by recent events prior to Kyle's help and Sassafras was not welcoming. I really appreciated that she was on time and took communicated with me.”

Tammy Y.

“Eileen is fantastic with my shy, scared dog. She went above and beyond at our meet and greet to get comfortable with him and has taken great care of him during her drop in visits.”

Kimberly W.

“So kind and lovely to work with and took great care of our cat!”

Sims H.

“This was my first time ever using a sitter while out of town for 3 days. I was really nervous to see how it would go with my 11 year old chiweenie who is stuck in her ways. Jenna EXCEEDED my expectations and my little Tootie did so much better than I thought! Jenna was great with communication the entire time, sent lots of pics and kept me updated throughout. It really helped ease my mind and allowed me to enjoy my time away without worrying too much. Tootie also really seemed to like Jenna, which is unusual because she usually takes quite a while to warm up to people! I would 100% recommend Jenna and plan to hopefully have her sit Tootie again in the future. Thanks again!”

About: I try to create as calming an experience as possible for animals by keeping a close eye on how they react to things and learning about pets’ unique quirks and routines from their owners. There are few better feelings in the world than when an animal decides they trust you enough to rest their chin on you or climb on your lap. I’m an artist so most weeks my schedule is completely flexible and I can work around what you and your pets need. I know how important animals’ routines are to them so I’m happy to adjust. Your dog (or bird) will have my full attention when I’m staying with or visiting them since I only watch one pet at a time.

“Michael stepped up last minute to help care for Milo during the week of fourth of July. He provided plenty of photos and let me know any issues he encountered. Milo seemed to really really like him which is great too. Absolutely would recommend and book again...with greater notice next time lol.”

About: I have years of experience caring for my own dog as well as my friend’s and family’s pets. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and will work with you to ensure your pet is happy and comfortable. I’m currently working from home and occasionally go in to office. I have a flexible schedule. I’d be happy to walk your dog before work, during my lunch break, and after work, and take short breaks to play with them during the day. I have a large fenced in yard with a doggy door and one friendly dog who is happy to play or simply relax with your pup. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. I’m happy to address any special needs or requirements. I board one or two dogs at a time and a good fit would be a friendly, house trained dog.
