“Lori was excellent! We did a meet & greet the day before services started which put me at ease knowing our dog was in good hands. Lori would let me know what time she would be there to pick up Oscar and when she was on her way; constant communication. I LOVE the Rover Cards! Especially the cute pictures of my happy dog. We hired Lori at our vacation home and we’ll hire her again when we come back later on in the summer. Lori was trustworthy, professional and dependable! So great!”

About: Hi! I have been dog sitting for 13 years, I worked at the pet spa for 1, and am excited to watch/walk your babies! Don’t be afraid to reach out! Availability fluctuates.. view my calendar as i update it frequently! They will follow their normal routine: walks, lets outs, eating and play time.. even cuddles if that is what they're familiar with! Can watch your baby at your house as our rental doesn’t allow animals, but in your home, they will be taken care of in the exact same way they are used to.

“Neomi is a born dog person, highly recommended to care for your dog by walking, house sitting etc. Wiggles really liked her from the beginning.”


“I was so lucky to find Janine! I’m working a short term contract in the area and needed someone to take care of my dog while I was working. Happy I was leaving my pup in such good hands!”


“Excellent! My baby was very happy”


About: I have always loved animals and always been around them in my home. I have years of experience with feeding, exercising, and providing enrichment for both cats and dogs. I understand the importance of making sure they feel comfortable as well as respected during our time together. My goal is to ensure that your pet is happy, healthy, and cared for when you need a little extra help! I’m currently working part time, and have plenty of time to hangout with your fur babies. With my current seasonal hours slowing down, your pets can be guaranteed a sitter with pretty open availability! I have a large backyard and one level home for your fur baby. I have access to 5 miles of shaded and accessible trails as well as a dog friendly beach. My furniture is meant to be enjoyed by four-legged friends and I love taking them on “field trips” to many of the natural areas I have access to!

About: When you book with me, your pet gets the best care possible! Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I tailor every experience to meet your pet’s unique needs. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies who need long walks and playtime to senior dogs who just want a gentle stroll and lots of love. My most knowledgeable experience was caring for my senior golden retriever named Doc, who needed medication twice a day and extra patience on his walks. I made sure he got his medicine on time and took slow, comfortable walks at his own pace. For dog walks, I provide engaging walks with plenty of exercise, potty breaks, and personalized attention. I’ve walked everything from high-energy huskies who love to run to shy rescue dogs who need extra reassurance and gentle care. For drop-in visits, I check in on your pet, refresh food and water, provide potty breaks, clean up as needed, and, of course, give plenty of belly rubs and playtime. I once cared for a nervous rescue pup named Baxter, who was slow to trust new people. With patience and treats, he warmed up to me, and by the end of our visits, he was happily greeting me at the door with a wagging tail! For overnight sitting, your pet gets loving care in a stress-free environment. I stick to their routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and snuggles. I’ve stayed with multiple pets at a time. Throughout every visit, I send regular updates, photos, and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands. Book with me today for dependable, loving pet care! My only current responsibilities are raising my 3 year old daughter who loves all animals, caring for my 5 year old low-maintenance cat named Sparkle, and keeping up with my two online classes for my Medical Coding Certificate. The classes are both online and allow me to login on at any point in the day to get work done! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm and secure environment with a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. I do have a 5 year old cat named Sparkle who keeps to herself in a separate room and a 3 year old child who loves animals but is always supervised around them to ensure a positive and respectful interaction. For in-home care, I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Whether they need structured playtime, a quiet space to relax, or extra attention, I tailor my care to their needs. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and trusting environment. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for!

She checked in on them three times and even delivered our dogs to our wedding venue so our brother could walk our dogs down the aisle during the ceremony.
