About: I've taken care of a total of 5 animals that includes 2 of my own. I've started pet sitting about 2 years now for the family I used to nanny for before I left. I Love to be around animals since I was Little. I want to bring comfort to people that there is someone that they can rely on to take care of their little furry ones. I'm pretty flexible when needing to drop in the mornings or afternoons, would need to see what days you'll be out for vacations beforehand. -JA I would take pictures daily and send updates on what the pet/pets are doing that day and their moods that day. wouldn't be able to bring my own personal security camera but glad if you are able to provide it in case of anything.
8. Jennifer Z.
“Jennifer was wonderful! She watched my 3 kitties while I was away for Christmas. We did a meet and greet with the cats beforehand, which made me feel much more comfortable leaving for the holidays. Jennifer followed all instructions to a tee and provided detailed updates. She was also able to administer the cats medication without issue. I would definitely re-book with Jennifer if I need another cat sitter in the future!”

10. Tselmuun Z.
“I lived with Tselmuun for a year and during that time, she has consistently taken good care of my cats. When I was away on business trips, Tselmuun had graciously offered to take care of my cats and she is punctual and responsible when it comes to feeding, playing, and cleaning litter boxes. Tselmuun is a very clean, organized and compassionate person and I feel very fortunate that she was there to support me and my kitties when I needed good quality pet care.”

12. Kira K.
“We have a fear reactive pup and Kira has gone above and beyond our expectations to work with her. She has taken the time to get to know Sadie and give her a chance to show her true colors. We were hesitant of Rover with a reactive dog, but couldn’t have found a better fit for our pups! We cannot recommend be her enough!”
13. Katie S.
About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, small animals, and fish! With a lifelong passion for animals and their wellbeing, and over 4 years in the pet retail industry, I understand what it takes to provide an excellent experience for pets (and their humans!) I’m currently available for walking, playing, feeding, cleaning animal enclosures, and even administering medication/special needs treatments. I’m fully vaccinated, lgbt+ friendly, considerate of you and your home, and always ready to care for your pet as if they were my own family member! I’ve just recently found myself leaving full time work in search of a part time job, so my availability is great! I have my own reliable transportation, and am willing to work with you whether you need a brief drop in or a lengthier visit, including an overnight in your home while you’re away! I won’t be providing daycare in my own home, but will always treat yours as if it were my own! I can be in and out for a walk with your dog, or provide any care they may need in your home within your preferred time slot. I’m more than willing to wear a mask at all times in your home. Or, with yours and the local jurisdictions approval, remove it in order to make shy animals more comfortable with me. Your animal’s safety and comfort are my top priority, and I have plenty of experience with pet body language, communication, and behaviors.
14. Ivan M.
“Ivan is a very experienced dog sitter. He is always taking care of my dog when we travel. I feel very comfortable leaving our dog at Ivan’s house. He and his family are doing an excellent job. Ivan sent us daily updates about our dog with pictures and videos. Thank you very much. Best regards, Aleksandra D.”
15. Nathan Y.
“Very helpful on a last minute booking! Nathan was also very detailed and informative on when he came over and checked in on the pups. Thank you!”
16. Claire D.
“Claire is awesome! She is reliable, practical, and always willing to help out. It’s abundantly clear that she loves the dogs she looks after and fully commits to keeping them safe, healthy, and happy — and it’s just as clear that they love her for it in return. She is always aware of where they are and what they need or want, and she’s great at calming down shy or nervous animals and helping them have fun. Even my cat relaxed enough to say hi. I’d recommend her wholeheartedly!”
17. Cecilia W.
“Cecilia helped us out by coming over to give our cat his injected medication. She did a great job and we are very thankful for her! We know our babies are in good hands with her. Highly recommend.”
18. Katrina J.
“Katrina took such good care of Bella and Oreo. They were both happy and relaxed when I returned from work this afternoon. I appreciated receiving an update on their exercise and eating, and a cute picture of them looking very happy and content. I’ll definitely have Katrina back the next time I have an extended work day at the office.”
19. Madison F.
“Madison was great! She was very respectful of our home and kept everything clean when we returned! Our pets absolutely loved her and we will definitely be using her in the future to watch our dogs again!”

About: I have been a pet lover all my life, and first began petsitting when I was 10 years old. My experience in pet care include: volunteering at an animal hospital, petsitting for a company and on my own, working at a pet retail store where I took online courses on pet nutrition, and working as an animal care technician and day Care counselor at a pet kennel and day care. I have dealt mainly with cats and dogs, but also small pets like turtles, lizards, and birds! I enjoy helping people and pets, and strive to provide the best possible service. In my pet care career, I have worked with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I love pets and hope to meet yours! I work at a high school and am available early in the morning and then after 3pm I have total availability. I am also available for overnight stays in the client’s home. I cannot offer boarding in my home, but when I am in a client’s home, I am conscientious and respectful. While caring for pets, I take my time to ensure all their needs are met.
