“Beth is so wonderful with my cats. They are so happy when she comes! I really appreciate how reliable she is and completely trust her caring for them. I highly recommend Beth. Thank you!”


“Anna was just wonderful! She came for drop-in visits and looked after my dog and cat while we were gone for 8 days. I looked forward to seeing the photos of my sweet dog on his walks and I couldn’t believe my extremely shy cat made appearances for photos, too! We were relaxed on our vacation knowing our pets were well looked after. Thank you so very much, Anna!”


About: I have a really deep love for dogs, especially senior pups. I’m naturally gentle, patient, and attentive, which I think older dogs really respond to. I take the time to understand each dog’s unique needs and personality—whether they’re shy, slow-moving, or just need a little extra comfort. I truly care for every dog like they’re my own, and I find real joy in creating a calm, safe space where they can feel at ease. Caring for pets fits really naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy it—it doesn’t feel like a chore to me. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, check-ins, feeding, and cuddles throughout the day. I’m used to structuring my day around a pet’s needs, whether that’s slow morning strolls for older pups, medication routines, or just being a calm presence nearby. I’m happy to adjust to whatever makes your pet feel safe and cared for. I always treat a client’s home with the same respect I’d want someone to have in mine—clean, quiet, and mindful. When I’m in their space, I try to keep things as calm and familiar as possible for the pet. I stick closely to their usual routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, medications, or just how they like to relax. I move slowly, especially with older or anxious dogs, and I pay close attention to their comfort. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, cared for, and never alone.

About: Dog walking since high school. Love all breeds (frenchies, doodles, beagles especially) and ages. Excited to meet new dogs and help out with walks and play dates! I am currently working part time while in law school. I am flexible on times to come hangout with your dog and go on walks. I will be very respectful of your house and requests. I have been trusted with house keys and garage codes for past and present clients.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was nearly 14 years old. I have a cat currently, and have had dogs off and on for most of my life. I am often available on Mondays until 3 pm, Wednesdays until noon, Fridays all day, Saturdays all day, and Sundays all day. I have a lot of time available despite a full time job. I do not offer sitting or boarding, my apologies. However, I do offer walks and drop-ins. Thank you for considering me as someone to care for your kitty or pup!

“Marta was very good with Willow. She was able to accommodate us last minute and was very flexible when we needed to add a day. She took excellent care of her and kept us up to date on how she was doing.”


“This was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous about how it would work out, but there was no need to worry because Davide was exceptional! Davide is an extremely caring and conscientious dog-sitter whose highest priority was making sure our 13 year old dog was comfortable, engaged, and well-taken care of while we were away. Davide took our dog out for walks at every visit, and in addition to maintaining the feeding schedule, he also monitored how much he was eating, making any necessary adjustments to his meals that were needed. Davide also went above and beyond to look after our dog and our house, and sent us frequent reports and photos, which were all very reassuring. I was extremely pleased that Davide was looking after our dog and could tell that Davide is an experienced dog-sitter who anticipates what needs to be done and knows how to take care of any situation that may arise, whether it concerns a pet or the house. When we came home, our dog was happy and showed no signs of stress. I look forward to having Davide take care of our dog again in the future!”


“Amazing!! Lauren watched our house for a week, picked up our mail, and fed and walked our dog everyday. She put away our groceries that were delivered to our home. We love Lauren!! We are so thankful for her flexibility and she eased our stress knowing our dog and home were taken care of while we were away. I hope you will choose her because she is amazing!!”

About: I’ve always taken care of my friends’ family dogs at home whenever they go on vacation. They trust me with their dogs because I’m responsible and care for them just like they’re my own pets! I’m available in the morning 8am to 1:30pm Tuesday Thursday Friday. Then in the evenings I am free! Depending on the weekend I am available as well! I’m so excited to make new furry friends. I have a fenced yard for my own pup. I always put my pup on a leash when we go for our walks and make sure I never leave him home alone for more than 8 hours if I am gone for the day / evening.

About: As a lifelong dog lover and proud pet parent, I’ve had the joy of raising several dogs of my own—from playful puppies to beloved seniors. Being part of their entire life cycle has taught me not only how to care for different stages of life, but how to truly understand what pets need to feel safe, happy, and loved. What sets me apart? I bring personal experience, genuine affection, and reliable care to every walk and visit. Walks with me aren’t just exercise—they’re fun, stimulating adventures tailored to your pet’s energy and personality. Whether it’s a quick stroll or a slow-paced outing for an older pup, I make sure your furry friend enjoys every moment. My daytime schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to work with your pet care needs. Whether it’s a mid-morning walk, afternoon visit, or keeping your kitty company while you’re away, I’ll do my best to accommodate your routine. I provide care exclusively in your home, where your pet feels most comfortable and secure. Safety is always my top priority—I follow your routines, respect your space, and make sure your pet is never left in an unsafe situation. I treat every home and animal with the same care and attention I give my own.

About: Let me meet your pup! I’m a huge human and pet lover. I help people by day working as a CT Tech in healthcare. Now I am looking to help animals in the evenings. Fun fact: I am currently on a weight loss journey and have been doing daily walks and I would love for someone else’s pup to join me! I am a very responsible and educated dog owner. My family dog, Baylor, is diabetic and requires lots of special care so I have learned a lot! :) I am currently a full time CT Technologist working Monday-Friday 7:30a-4p. However, I am home by 4:30pm every day. I am free in the evenings and all day on Saturday and Sunday. I recently moved here and do not have any pets of my own, but someday I will have lots of pets. For now, I would love to meet and care for someone else’s pets and make some extra money to save up for a house. :) I have a mostly fenced in yard - the only part not fenced in is the driveway itself, however, I plan to never have someone else’s dog outside without a leash on. I am a big worrier and anything can happen in a blink of an eye. In my home, pets can roam wherever and can go on furniture as they please. I treat others pets as I would want mine treated.


“Cooper loves Chris! She knows that I love to play catch with my hedge hogs and pays attention to my needs when she takes me out. Chris genuinely cares about her four legged friends and I intend to have her check in on Cooper whenever we'll be out for the entire day.”


About: I am a pre-veterinary science major and I have grown up with pets and taken care of them for years! I’ve had dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish! I have a lot of experience taking care of animals as I’ve interned at a zoo and volunteered at shelters and vet clinics. I am currently a student and I am around to help out on most days of the week just depending on the time on week days! I will not be able to have pets in my home since I have a cat that does not like other animals and it is not allowed in my apartment complex.


About: I grew up with adorable pooches and have one of my own. I am always the go to dog sitter for friends and family. Dogs feel very comfortable around me and I've never met one I don't love. My friends often tell me that their dog never gets as excited as when I walk through their door. I've spent my whole life with dogs and understand that each one is different and has their own personality so if you have any special requests/requirements let me know! I love taking dogs to the park or if they need some love and play time at home I'm up for the task. I am available M-F and some weekends for short or long walks, play time at home, as well as feeding, medication management or just a cuddle buddy. I have a flexible schedule and can work with you to find the right time of day that fits you and your dog's needs. Dogs need love and attention and I hope to provide that for your four-legged friend. I am very attentive to my own dog and understand that every dog needs a little something different. I recognize subtle hints like whining or aggression and know that often that means there is a need that isn't being met. Since I have cared for dogs my whole life I will make sure to ask questions about the needs of your dog and will ensure that I understand how you need your pet cared for. I'll send photo updates each visit and if something doesn't seem right, you'll be the first to know!

About: I am available to care for your pets in your home. I have had all kinds of pets my entire life. I currently have 3 cats and a Golden Retriever. My kids are old enough to stay at home with our pets while I take care of your pets! We love taking the dog for walks with the cats in the mesh backpack. I am comfortable caring for elderly pets and pets who require medication. I am responsible and clean. I have a professional job (I have a law degree). I work remotely and my schedule is very flexible. It's like having your mom pet sit for you. Go away without any worries. I have a professional job (I have a law degree). I work remotely and my schedule is very flexible. My family can take care of my pets when I'm with yours. I feed my Golden Retriever, Maizey 3x a day and has 2 to 3 walks a day. The cats like to go with us riding in their backpack. I always clean up after her and am very cautious with other dogs that we don't know. The cats' litter box is emptied several times a day. They always have food and fresh water.

Can't recommend her enough!”
