“Janet did an amazing job caring my kitty!!she was able to come on the times I prefer and send me pictures of my kitty. Not only did she make sure the food and water bowl were fill but play with Nimbus as well. Definitely recommend. Thank you so much!”
“Very patient with my very nervous Bogie who hates when we leave her. We felt at ease knowing she was in great hands. Took her time to make us all feel comfortable and is very reliable and on time with her visits.”
“Camila was great! We reached out last minute to set up a drop in visit for our golden retriever, Carson, and she was super quick to respond and set up a quick meet and greet later that same day. She took great care of our Carson, provided updates and pictures during their walk. We will definitely reach out to Camila next time we need a sitter!”

“Samantha S is a very professional and kind young woman who is very quick to respond back, she did a meet and greet with our dogs first, and provided us all the information we needed to proceed with a 1hr drop in. Our dogs felt so comfortable with Samantha. They definitely got good vibes from her and so did we. We will definitely be booking with Samantha from now on.”

About: I have taken care of my family and neighbors’ pets whenever they needed someone to watch their animals. I have worked with senior animals, puppies, kittens, and animals who need extra care/special needs. I am still searching for a job, I have a lot of free time so I can take care of pets at any time of the week. I make sure to follow any specific instructions left for the animal’s care. Walks, play time, and clean up are down regularly between getting other tasks done. Animals are usually fed twice or three times a day unless there are specific instructions otherwise. Basically I will follow whatever instructions are needed.
“Alyssa is so very sweet and gentle with our furbabies. She’s lovely, uber-reliable (no reminders needed), and absolutely trustworthy! We appreciated communication with feedback about her visits and photos to see that our dogs were OK!”
“Christina was great! We have a very anxious dog and we were worried about leaving him but he warmed up quickly to Christina and we were thankful to have someone to take care of him.”
About: Tail wags guaranteed- I pride myself on providing personalized care and attention to every pet, as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals—from playful puppies to senior pets with special needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling special diets, and creating calm, comfortable environments for anxious or elderly pets. In addition to basic care, I also offer help with puppy training basics like potty routines, leash manners, and crate comfort. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and communicate openly with pet parents, so you’re always in the loop. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priority! I am a full time stay at home mom whose kiddos have all started school and am working on filling my time and love for animals while they’re away. They are dropped off early in the morning and picked up in the late afternoon leaving my schedule open for most of the day. I also own a photography business and have occasional clients. However, I can plan around those in advance as I make my own schedule. If you ever want a professional photo of your furry friend- just let me know! :) I have a 3 story, single family home with a fenced in backyard. I also have two of our own furry friends to keep yours company. However, if yours prefers to be alone, no problem! My home is set up with a downstairs apartment allowing your pet the most privacy and security possible. My pets are also crate trained and we are happy to provide that service, as well.
“Ty was amazing with my two cats! I would highly recommend Ty to anyone who needs a pet sitter. My cats warmed up to Ty so quickly and I could tell Ty really cared for them and it put my mind at ease while I was away!”
About: I've been around dogs all my life. I love spending time with pets of any age as I currently have a reactive senior myself. I'm relatively new to being around cats however I've spent a year around 6 of them and have quickly won their hearts. I am a full time employee however I know my schedule 1-2 weeks ahead of time and typically am up odd hours which gives me more time to spend time with your pets. I have a reactive dog myself so I understand dog body language and respect their boundaries. I'm also used to escape artist dogs so I will always take proper precautions.
“Faith is wonderful! We were out of town for a few days and had to leave our rabbit at home. Faith came by every morning and fed him his vegetables and pellets, rinsed out his water bowl and refilled with fresh water, cleaned out his playpen, and gave him plenty of cuddles. She sent me detailed updates after every visit and we really appreciated having such a trustworthy person come into our home and take such good care of our rabbit. I will definitely ask her to care for him again next time we’re away! ?”
“I’m so glad I met with Tony, she seems very nice and knowledgeable. Chip immediately warmed up to her and they became good friends. I hope she will be able to take care of my boy very soon. I will not leave him with just anyone, so this experience was very nice. So glad someone told me about Rover!”
“Jasmine was outstanding! She took care of our elderly cats over Christmas and we are so grateful we found her. Having Jasmine care for our cats soothed this anxious cat mom’s fears, and she got our elderly kitty’s supplements mixed in his food just right so he ate everything! Very communicative and we were comfortable having her in our home.”
