About: Animal lover, outdoor enthusiast, and lifelong pet owner with experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals. Comfortable with everything from energetic working breeds to laid-back family pets, and committed to treating every pet like my own. As an early riser and animal lover, I’m happy to accommodate early morning walks before work and pet care after 4 PM. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, whether that’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or keeping a pet company while their family is away. My schedule allows for consistent, reliable care throughout the week and on many weekends. Your pet’s comfort and safety come first. I know every pet is different, so I like to learn their routine, favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel at ease. By caring for your pets in their own home, I can help keep their day as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, love, and care while you’re away.

“Thank you for caring for our cats while we were traveling! You really made them feel happy, played with, and fed! We really appreciated you staying for the whole drop in visit and sending pictures as we were really missing them while we were away!!”

“Jaeda Y. Was very responsible and kind with my two 100+ lbs fur babies! She took excellent pictures daily which I totally enjoyed receiving! Thanks a bunch Jaeda. I’ll be looking to book her again on my next trip.”

“Jen is an amazing pet sitter! I cannot say enough about how well she cared for our two cats while we were out of town. I have one cat with special medical issues who requires both oral and injected meds, and Jen handled her complicated situation with the utmost care! She is incredible in her communication and always sent me detailed updates and pictures from her visits. On top of being highly qualified, she has such an evident love for animals. She snuggled my cats on every visit and even got my shy kitty to become her friend. Do not hesitate to call Jen if you want the best care for your family pets! We (and Izzy and Oscar) are already looking forward to her next visits!”

“Kelly comes across as a caring animal person, trustworthy and competent. We are very happy with her following our guidelines on when to feed and water and play with our cat. Our cat is very shy, but was rubbing against Kelly's legs and very friendly. Cats know.”

“I’m not even sure where to start, Erin was AMAZING! We had an issue with the door handle that she took care of, the dogs had a rough day and she handled it, she got my mail, and even cleaned up some dog hair! One of our pups decided to go on a hunger strike and she got him eating again by hand feeding him! I would not hesitate for a second to have her back! She was the best and I highly recommend her!”

“Rowyn was absolutely amazing!! I cannot say enough great things about her and her compassion, professionalism and how fantastic she was with my two almost 17 year old kitties! They require oral medication every day, which can be challenging, and on the first day, one was being difficult and refusing the medication, I had told her she could leave since she had already been there longer than the standard allotted drop-in visit time, but she was determined to make sure they both had their medication and was patient and stayed until they both finally took the medication. She absolutely went above and beyond, and was so attentive, so communicative and sent so many pictures! She always arrived on time, despite my saying the timing was flexible! She is someone we completely trusted with the care of our cats and also felt 100% comfortable coming and going from our house. She also went above and beyond and even did some cleaning so when we got home from vacation, we had nothing to worry about!! I cannot recommend Rowyn more highly! Thank you Rowyn for giving us so much peace of mind while away!! Will absolutely book with Rowyn again in the future!”

“Sarah was lovable with my dog Charlie, sweet girl, who cares for the well being of your pet. She was also great at communication.”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have 6 years of foster care experience, where I helped care for and rehome dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. For the past 2 years, I’ve also been dog sitting making sure pups get all the walks, playtime, and snuggles they need while their owners are away. I just graduated college, and while I’m saving up to welcome a dog of my own, Rover gives me the chance to do the next best thing spending time with yours! As an equestrian who grew up around horses, cats, and dogs, I’m comfortable with animals big and small, high-energy or laid-back. Whether it’s long walks, backyard fetch, or plenty of cuddle time, I’ll make sure your pet feels loved, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Because I work from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I can provide walks every 2–3 hours, along with playtime, potty breaks, and snuggles in between. This makes it easy to keep your pet on their regular routine and make sure they never feel lonely. On weekends, my schedule is even more flexible, I’m available to provide walks and care as frequently as needed to keep your furry friend happy and comfortable. Whether your pet loves long walks, quick potty breaks, or extra cuddle sessions, I can adapt to their needs Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When I provide care in your home, I treat it with the same respect and attention I’d want for my own. I carefully follow your pet’s routines, whether that means meal times, walks, or medications so they feel secure and stress free while you’re away. I keep a close eye on doors, gates, and leashes to ensure your pet is always safe, and I take the time to learn their unique personality so I can respond to their needs with patience and love. I also provide regular updates and photos so you know exactly how your furry family member is doing. My goal is to create a calm, trustworthy environment where pets feel cared for and owners feel confident their home and animals are in great hands

“Yutong did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 Shiba Inu boys while we were out of town for a couple of days. He was incredibly responsive, sent loads of photos and videos, and made us feel very sure that our dogs were happy and well cared for. We will certainly be reaching out to him again to take care of our dogs!”

Andrea S.

“Ana is easily the best cat sitter I've ever hired (and I say that, never having had a bad experience with a pet sitter). She watched our 2 nervous cats and went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of. She even did an extra check-in when one of our cats wasn't eating and cleaned up their vomit. Thank you very much, Ana, and we will definitely hire you again.”

About: I used to work for a family that had a young high energy golden retriever and it was the best! I was able to provide the needs the family asked me for which included walking him, feeding him, giving him attention, and putting him in the kennel for bed. They also had a cat and I was able to care for her too, so I have experience with working with 2 animals at once. On top of that, I also have a cat and a dog of my own so I am very used to being with animals in the home and providing proper care for them. I am a college student who is home for the summer, and I am currently unemployed so I am extremely flexible! I would like to prioritize being a caregiver for pets before I go back to school to save some money for college. I am able to offer whatever care is needed for your animals. I am extremely flexible when it comes to pet owners expectations and needs, so that everyone is satisfied and happy!

“Taresse was great with our cats when we were on vacation! I was happily surprised to see daily pictures even of our shyest, who most pet sitters never even see when they're here. That in itself spoke volumes to me. Taresse was also great to communicate with and I appreciated the COVID precautions. I will most certainly book again next time we travel.”

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats since I was 17. Family, neighbors, and friends have trusted me to walk, feed, clean up after, and comfort their pets while they’re away. Whether it’s a snuggly cat or an energetic pup, I always approach animals with patience and love. I currently work part-time, so I’m flexible and can make time for drop-in visits or overnight stays at your home. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays after 2PM. I’ll treat your home with care—and your pets like family. I do not offer boarding in my own home, but I provide thoughtful, reliable care in your space—where your pets feel most secure. I respect your home, follow your pet’s routine, and ensure they feel safe, soothed, and seen while you’re away.

About: I have had a dog almost my entire life. We had dogs in our family growing up and I’d always be the go to person for pet care. I love all animals and actually used to want to be a vet. We recently lost our dog due to an abrupt illness. My heart was shattered and I miss having a dog in my life. She was such an important part of my life! I am a nurse and work weekends and nights as we also have 3 kids. I am home and able to care for your dog weekdays. My kids and new pup love to go for walks also and be with dogs. I’m available for drop ins or walks during the week, maybe some weekends also. I am an active person and love dogs so I’m always looking for a reason to go for a long walk! I often bring my kids but he loves dogs and being outside and sits great in a stroller on walks. I am a firm believer in using leashes on walks and only using fenced areas outside. I am also comfortable with harnesses. We also respect if dogs are allowed on furniture or not.

About: Hi! I’m Kelsey, and caring for animals has always been something that comes really naturally to me. I recently adopted my cat, Louis, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I work full-time in behavioral health, so I bring a lot of patience, attentiveness, and calm energy into how I care for animals—especially those who may be a little anxious or need extra reassurance. I’m available for drop-ins and walks, with extra flexibility on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I’m happy to follow detailed routines, send regular updates, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs playtime, a walk, or just some company, I’d love to help! Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I work full-time during the day, but I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend visits, with extra flexibility on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I try to keep my schedule balanced so I can be fully present with each pet, and not feel rushed between visits. I’m happy to stick to consistent routines, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate specific timing needs when I can. I’m especially a good fit for pets who benefit from a calm, steady presence or a little extra patience. I care for every pet the way I’d want someone to care for mine, with patience, attention, and a really calm energy. I recently adopted my cat, Louisville aka Louis, so I know how important it is to trust the person coming into your space. In your home, I’m very respectful of routines and will follow instructions closely to keep things consistent and low-stress. I take my time building trust, especially with shy or anxious pets (and cats who like to take their time warming up). I’m mindful about safety - secure doors, leashes, clean spaces, and making sure your pet is always comfortable. I’ll also send thoughtful updates and photos so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Whether your pet wants playtime, a walk, or just a cozy presence nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are.

“Once again, Angela was an amazing sitter for our cat while we were away for the week! Thoughtful and communicative, she understood our girls unique needs. We came home to a happy and healthy kitty! All pet parents know how hard it is to leave your babies, but the pictures and updates make it easier to feel good about the care they're getting. Thanks so much for everything you do!”

“Jodi was exceptional and took wonderful care of our two senior kitties while we were away. She asked thoughtful questions, was alwayd qucick to respond, and just the easiest person to get along with! We look forward to booking her for future cat sittings. :)”
