“Dallas took care of my 2 cats and my dog, he was pretty quick to answer and very friendly. He sent me lots of pics and videos of my pets and i could tell they were being well taken care of. My dog loved him and cried for him after I picked her up.”

About: What sets me apart? I treat your pup like my own—whether that means belly rub marathons, silly squeaky toy sessions, or slow strolls for senior snouts. I’ve got experience with puppies who love to chew everything, older dogs who need a little extra TLC, and all the goofy personalities in between. I’m all about keeping tails wagging and sending you cute pics while you’re away! I am available all the time and if I need to step out of the house someone will always be home so your pups will always have the love! Whether I’m hosting your pup at my place or hanging out at yours, I keep their routine as close to home as possible—because consistency = happy dogs! In my home, they’ll get a comfy space to relax, lots of playtime, and all the love (and treats) they can handle. If I’m at your place, I make sure to follow your pup’s schedule, keep things tidy, and leave your home just as I found it—except maybe with a little more tail-wagging energy!

“I was coming in from out of town and needed my dog watched for the day while I was at a wedding. I’ve never used Rover before and was a little nervous because he gets pretty bad separation anxiety. Nichole was so nice and took such good care of him and just hung out with him for the day which was exactly what we were looking for! She even sent us pictures of him to keep us updated on how he was doing :)”


About: I am a pet parent in my thirties and throughout the years, I've fostered many dogs and cats with various personalities. Now, my 3 gentle and friendly elder dogs mostly hang out at home but still would like to make new friends. A few years ago, I started making pet treats for picky eaters and worked with many doggy families. Your pet will be taken care of and will be in capable hands. I am home full time and aim to create a warm, calm, and friendly environment for all pets. Am flexible, can work with your schedule and accommodate for your pet's safety and comfort. I have an open space that three other dogs usually hang out as well as a fenced yard and neighborhood park for walks. For communication, I will keep track of their daily activity and take pictures to send to you!

About: Flexible and Adaptive: Every pet and home is unique, and I adjust my care plan accordingly, whether it’s dealing with a pet’s specific health condition or respecting the nuances of your home environment. My blend of professional caregiving experience, especially with the young, the elderly, and those with special needs, combined with a heartfelt commitment to the well-being of pets and homes, makes me uniquely qualified to offer an unparalleled sitting service. I structure my day around pet care needs, whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day playtimes, or evening cuddles. My work schedule is adaptable, allowing me to cater to the specific routines of the pets I sit for. Dedicated Time Blocks: I allocate specific time blocks for different aspects of pet care: Morning: Early walks, feeding, and playtime to kick start the day with energy. Midday: A break for both me and the pets, including training sessions or quiet time for older pets. Evening: Dinner, another walk or play session, and settling down activities to prepare for bedtime. I have a fenced yard and a work at home roommate who also has years of experience with mostly all kinds of dogs and is a big nurturing pet lover.

Jeremy T.
“Jeremy house-sat for me while I was away on business. I have a sulcata tortoise who requires a specific hay and water every day, in addition to a daily treat of greens. Additionally, a ball python and cat. I didn’t think Jeremy would have to deal with the python at all, but he had no problem running out to the pet store for food when my trip was extended. Cats are cats and do what cats do, but the food and water were filled with dishes cleaned when I returned. Jeremy has a wonderful personality, and I would hire him again in a flash.”

“Ali was a diamond in the rough in our time of need!!! We had short notice with only 3 days prior and an extensive schedule required for our girl ♥️ Ali was quick to respond as we sorted through the details, fairly priced (beyond fairly now that we have a trip under our belt), met with us to meet our girl prior to day of, and far excelled at executing our routine, along with our general expectations! We cannot wait to plan the next trip, knowing our girl will be in hands we trust wholeheartedly. Thank you Ali, you have lifetime customers for as long as you’re available - see you soon ;)”

“As with most people, leaving your beloved pups with a stranger can sometimes be unnerving. Kaitlyn handled our 2 60+ lbs pups with ease.
