“Lauren was consistent with our twice a day drop-ins even after getting a huge amount of snow on day 2 of checking in on my 2 kitties! She took time to make sure their litter was clean, they were fed, and played with them. The report card photos were a treat we looked forward to after every visit! Will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I have always had pets myself and I have pet sat for my friends and family for years. I am punctual and detail oriented. Whatever you and your pet need I will provide. I will always show love and respect to the pets I care for. I work at Mom's Organic Market 4 days out of the week so I have plenty of open days to take care of your pets. I live in an apartment and have a cat so my place would not be ideal for pets to stay over. Maybe another cat would be ok. I am open to that.
About: I love dogs and have volunteered at the local shelter for the past 6 years...walking, feeding, cleaning cages of dogs and cats. I have owned several dogs over the years...all rescues and mixed bully breeds. I am currently retired so I have plenty of time to spend time taking care of your fur-babies. My home is pet friendly and I enjoy taking your pet for walks. I have a fenced yard. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and in my bed. I enjoy taking dogs for walks and there are several walking paths in my neighborhood.
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life so I can take care of puppies to elderly dogs. Most dogs love me and want to come play and pet. I also have a 2.5yr old son who absolutely LOVES dogs. We are happy to take care of dogs with special needs or is on mediations. We had a cat that just recently passed away and she would have been 19yrs old this year. She had asthma and we had to give her an inhaler 2x a day for 10 years. Happy to help your family with any special needs. We will love them like our own while you are away. I currently run my own business and work from home. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fairly easily adopt to your needs and help out wherever I can. I have a nice size home so your dog will have lots of free range all over the house. I live in a very pet friendly community so there are a ton of dogs around and a nice place to go walking the dog.
“Morgan was great! This was my first time using Rover for my 2 girls and I am so pleased. I had such peace of mind knowing they were under Morgan's care. Her love for animals is evident from her bio and communication with me. She was thorough in her care and made sure she accommodated all of my girls' needs.”
“Jiawei took wonderful care of my cats and followed all of my instructions including giving medication. She kept me updated with photos and was reliable, kind and easy to communicate with. I would definitely book with her again. Thank you so much!”
“Grace was fantastic for quick dog-sitting and walking , Grace was incredibly reliable and arrived on time. The dog was clearly happy and comfortable upon return, which is the best outcome. would be booked with Grace again for future pet care needs." Thank you Grace”
About: When I was 9 or 10, I had a beloved pet that we sadly had to give away due to a tough moving situation. Years later, we were lucky to bring Charlie home and Marvel, and they have been cherished members of our family for a few years. As a remote college student, I understand how important it is to find reliable help for your pets. I'm here for you and available to pet sit any day of the week or over the weekend. Your furry friends will be in good hands! I can walk your dog every 2-3 hours to ensure they get the exercise and attention they need. Additionally, I have a fenced yard with cameras for safety, where they can play. My own dog, Charlie, a friendly, neutered, vaccinated maltipoo, would love to have a companion to share some fun with! And Cocker spaniel named Marvel (he isn’t neutered yet due to age) who is also vaccinated.
About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds including not just cats and dogs, I currently care for 2 cats and 2 dogs and love them all. I volunteered at an animal shelter for multiple years and want to continue animal based experiences! I work currently part time but often have my weekends free and enjoy a good walk after getting off of my job, I do part time teacher work so the mental refresh is helpful I believe in utmost safety priority, including surveying surroundings constantly for threats, adjusting to it situationally and avoiding drawing attention to it incase it excites the animal.
About: What truly sets me apart is my professional background. As a special education teacher with seven years of experience in the classroom, patience, structure, and the ability to adapt to individual needs are woven into everything I do. I bring that exact same mindset to pet care. I understand that every animal learns and communicates differently, and I excel at reading body language and adjusting my approach to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and comfortable. Alongside having pets my entire life, I have spent the last 8 years providing dedicated pet care for family members and neighbors. Because of my teaching background, I am highly reliable when it comes to maintaining strict daily routines. This makes me particularly well-equipped to handle the unique needs of different life stages: Senior Care: I am incredibly patient and comfortable maintaining the slow, gentle pacing and strict medication or dietary schedules that senior pets often require to thrive in their golden years. Puppy Care & Training: I thrive on consistency and positive reinforcement. I am highly capable of maintaining the firm but gentle boundaries, frequent potty breaks, and structured play that young pets need while they are still learning their manners. Whether your pet needs quiet, gentle companionship or structured, engaging play, I have the experience, reliability, and heart to provide care that is perfectly tailored to them. I believe in complete transparency regarding my schedule so you know exactly when your pet is receiving my undivided attention: Summer Hours (Now – August): I am currently working a shorter schedule and am fully available for walks, drop-ins, and playtime every day after 1:30 PM. Fall Hours (Starting in September): I will be working my regular full-time schedule until 4:00 PM. However, my evenings will be completely open and dedicated to after-work walks, dinner routines, and evening companionship! I look forward to meeting your best friend and providing them with the highest level of care! I know firsthand that leaving your furry family members can be stressful. My goal is to provide a safe, engaging, and loving environment so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away. I treat every animal in my care with the exact same affection and attentiveness I give my own. My Experience I have been surrounded by pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, intuitive understanding of the daily care, patience, and affection animals require. For the past 8 years, I have been the trusted, go-to pet sitter for my neighbors and extended family. This hands-on experience has taught me how to adapt to different temperaments, respect established household rules, and quickly recognize when a pet might be feeling anxious. As a special education teacher, patience, compassion, and structure are at the core of who I am—and I bring those same qualities into how I care for your pets.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a kid of multiple breeds. I have learned that the best way to care for a pet is to make sure they are happy, healthy, and loved! I’m currently working from home and spend most of my time at home with my dog Rocco! My schedule is very flexible so I get to take my dog out often and would love the opportunity to spend time with even more pups and cats. I have a fenced yard, a cage, and I keep a close eye on the pets that I am caring for. I treat every pet as if it’s my own and make sure they have water at all times and access to bathroom as needed.
“Kayleigh did an excellent job with my Sophia. She met her in advance so she would feel comfortable with her. My cat seems happy and content upon my arrival back from vacation. Highly recommend!!!”
About: No pup is too big and no cat is too small! From big dogs like shepard mixes, pit bull mixes, retrievers and labs, ive cared for them all. Puppies and kittens as small as my hand I have experience with as well. I have no fear when it comes to breeds of any animal. I am eager to learn any pets unique personality and lifestyle! I currently babysit part time and have an at home art business painting pet portraits so I am pretty flexible every day of the week. Including weekends! In my clients home I care for their pets with positive energy, reliability and respect. Not only for one’s pet but for their home as well. I always make sure to leave the house as I found it and make sure every pet is as comfortable as possible. I am big on communication so anytime I am of service I will always have my phone to give updates or answer any questions.
“Patrick was wonderful! He was on time and communicated well. My cats accidentally locked themselves in a closet during the day and he let me know immediately. He took care of them and made sure to give them extra pets!! I’ll definitely be booking him again.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and have always had a love for animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. As a registered nurse, I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to details, so you can feel confident your pet will be safe and well cared for. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, playtime, and updates while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m a registered nurse, so my schedule varies, but I plan my pet care bookings around my work to ensure every pet gets the attention they deserve. On my days off, I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and sticking to your pet’s normal routine. I’ll always communicate my availability clearly and provide updates while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special care requests. I’m experienced caring for both dogs and cats, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. As a registered nurse, I’m detail-oriented, dependable, and attentive to changes in behavior or health. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Gianna is fantastic! She has stayed with our dogs multiple times now and we always have a great experience. She’s attentive, communicative, and caring. Would recommend her for your future dog care needs”
About: I have worked with all kinds of animals throughout my life, learning to train cats and dogs on my own. I’m also familiar with exotic pets such as pythons and bearded dragons. I can comfortably administer different kinds of medications to most animals, including oral liquids and pills, sub-Q and IM injections, and topicals. Currently I am available as a full-time pet sitter for house-stays and drop-ins. I often sit for multiple houses at once, doing house-stays for one client and drop-ins for 1-3 others depending on the services and times needed per client. When I meet an animal for the first time, my priority is gaining their trust. I spend time casually observing so I can take note of their personality and physical forms of communication, but I don’t get too close or move too quickly until I’ve given the animal a chance to take me in as well. Once trust is established, we can move on to wearing leashes and harness, medication routines, playing, etc.

Amber was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! She was caring, responsible, attentive, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. She was very dependable and made sure they were well cared for while I was away. I truly appreciated the attention and care she gave them and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. I would absolutely use her again! Thanks so much Amber
Nicole is absolutely fantastic. As a first time dog owner, I was really nervous leaving my puppy for the first time and Nicole totally put my mind at ease right away - with texted updates and photos in addition to the very detailed reports! I felt so much better immediately! Her level of communication daily is such a relief to me and makes me so happy to see Penny having fun with her! She goes above and beyond everyday - keeping me posted when Penny is sick, taking our trash out, adding extra food when I forget. I truly can’t imagine what we would do without her and am so grateful that Penny is in the best hands when we are at work!! I recommend Nicole so highly!
