About: I've done pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors for most of my life. This includes care of dogs to include feeding, play, walking, and administering meds if applicable. I currently have a six year old English Bulldog who is a stubborn sweetheart and I regularly pet sit for a family member's pitbull mix. I will be available on marked days, most regularly weekends as well as selected weekday options as I have a flexible/remote work set-up. I take care of pets of my own (as well as children) so I can confidently fill in to care for your pet. I have reliable transportation and defined radius on my profile so I can arrange for several walks and in home check-ins and care throughout the day and evening. When/if I do board or care for a client's pet in my home, there is a fenced in backyard and one other dog in the home.

Antoinette was AMAZING with my dog Rocky while I was on vacation and I highly recommend her. I found her thru Rover. She came to my house before I left to meet Rocky and to go over everything. My dog has skin allergies which he takes medication for so she gave him meds overnight. Rocky was a little upset the first day she watched him and didn’t want to eat. I had never left him before. She contacted me immediately and we came up with a plan and it worked. She sent me lots of pictures throughout the day of Rocky which I appreciated. I will use her again in the future.

Addie was wonderful! She is very easy to communicate with and her response time is excellent. Chess was very happy and well taken care of while we were away. We loved getting daily pics of Chess from Addie.

About: I am currently a College Student majoring in Animal Behavior. I have two years of experience pet sitting and walking dogs. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from puppies to seniors. I have a four year old Black Lab (Olive), and a three year old Boxer (Kyla). Can’t wait to meet your furry friend(s)! I have morning classes, so I have afternoons, evenings and weekends to take care of your pups. During school breaks I will be more available for your needs. I take dogs on leashed walks fitting their needs. I also keep them entertained and fed inside when/if needed. I also can play with your dog in a fenced yard.

About: Se habla espańol 🇵🇪 I had the pleasure of taking care of a little Shihtzu named Giselle for nearly 7 years and now have a gray tabby named Chicho 🤩 I have experience with both dogs and cats of all ages and all energies which has given me the opportunity to learn the different kinds of care both of them need. I understand the importance of making sure animals are fulfilled within their limits and I’m happy to provide that for them! ***House-Sitting/Overnight requests are JUST me staying overnight in your home to care for your pet (9PM-7AM). My house sitting is not 24/7 care, I typically aim to check in on your pet(s) every 4-6 hours or as less/more often as you request. My Overnight/House Sitting fee includes (1) morning or evening walk and/or playtime in the yard, potty time, etc. Additional visits are extra (see pricing).*** Thank you for understanding and please message me with any questions 😊 I work full time as a dental surgical assistant for an oral surgeon 8AM to 4PM on weekdays. After then and all day weekends I’m available to take care of your little ones! My Chicho roams freely in his home and outside as well (with some supervision). He gets along with other animals after some time to get to know each other but overall he’s friendly.

We’ve always had multiple dogs in the house and I’ve always fed, walked and taken good care of them! Like they are my kids! Please leave me a review after I’ve taken care of your pups to ensure others get great service too! I work from home. I am free to help take care of your pets when you can’t!

Heli was AMAZING when she stayed in our home to watch our severely speration anxiety ridden cockapoo, Ruby. I felt relieved and relaxed knowing Heli was watching Ruby while my family and I were away for a week. Although we had not previously met, I was immediately put at ease with the way she interacted with both Ruby and me. Heli also sent me a ton of pictures while we were away showing all the fun activities they were doing. She also kept to Ruby's schedule. As a very picky mama, I would 100% use and reccomend Heli in the future.

Cindy took great care of my two pups in my home while I was away: Sent photos, was flexible, was always available when I tried to contact her. They were happy and relaxed when I got home. AND she went beyond the call of duty--the AC broke in all but one room the night before I left. She stayed anyway in those circumstances and was willing to let the AC guy in and out and whatever she needed to do. Sleep in the one room with AC with the dogs if it got too hot etc, etc. She was great!! Highly recommend.

I have to thank Collin for his patience and willingness to watch my furry duo. He managed to somehow feed my poor dogs using sorcery and sheer willpower to scrounge whatever I had left after my dog’s food was stolen from my doorstep. My dogs also adore and trust him so he gets 100/10. Thank you so much, Collin!

Nic reliably sent us a pic/update every morning, responded quickly when we requested pics, and seemed to spend a lot of time with our elderly dog. Our return trip was unexpectedly delayed and though schedule didn’t allow an extension of the sitting, Nic offered to drop in and check on our pup when possible.

Christa is very easy to work with and helped us feel reassured about the dog and house being looked after. Her son, Elias, clearly became a preferred playmate of our dog & will be missed (!). Thank you to both Christa & Elias. We will hope she is available yo use her again

Another great house sitting for our pets by Nicole. Whenever we leave them with her, we know they will be well taken cared of. She also went the extra mile by shoveling our walkway and driveway during the winter storm. You won’t regret choosing Nicole for your pet sitting needs.

A+ Mayra took very good care of Birdie and Charlie. She kept us informed of their day-to-day progress. Charlie is an easy dog to take care of, and Birdie has health issues and takes a lot of medicine twice a day. Mayra made sure that Birdie got her medicine on-time each day. I will use her again when the time arises.
