Mila was awesome with our elderly dog Hudson she stayed with him for 5 days at our house. , very friendly and good with Hudson . Mila followed all instructions feeding walking and going out back. She even sent photos of him which made me feel so much better . The house was left clean. And Hudson was happy to stay home instead of a kennel! We will definitely use Mila’s services again !!

Claire took great care of both my kids. They had different food, had to eat separately and both took medication. She kept it all flowing smoothly and exercised them every day. She gave plenty of love, and one pup was jealous -she kept things from escalating. Would definitely recommend.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and understand how much they mean as family. I also have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, including overnight stays. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and energy levels. My background as a caregiver for the elderly has taught me patience, reliability, and attention to detail. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule since I currently work part-time and have plenty of flexibility throughout the day. This allows me to be available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays without feeling rushed. I’m able to plan my time around each pet’s needs, giving them the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. My open schedule also makes me reliable for last-minute bookings and adaptable to different routines. I prioritize safety and comfort when caring for pets in both my home and my clients’ homes. I make sure all spaces are clean, secure, and free of hazards, and I always follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, exercise, and any special instructions. I keep a close eye on pets at all times, ensure doors and gates are secure, and provide a calm, stress-free environment. Whether in my home or theirs, I treat every pet with the same level of care and attention as if they were my own.

Millie is AMAZING!! Took such great care of my 2 boys for a week while I was out of state for work. Will 1000% repeat. I’ve had many sitters over the years and she’s top notch as far as service, communication, and she genuinely loves animals! My work trip was stressful and knowing she was at my home with my babies gave me one huge less thing to worry about 💕

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up in a homeschooled household with a dog and three cats, so being hands-on with pet care was just part of everyday life. As a kid, I was known around my neighborhood for walking dogs, pet sitting, and helping out wherever I could—even mowing lawns for neighbors—so responsibility and reliability were instilled in me early on. I also spent time working on an alpaca farm, which gave me experience caring for animals with different needs and personalities. In my adult life, I regularly help care for my sister’s three dogs, and since she’s a veterinarian, I’ve learned a lot about animal behavior, health, and proper care through her. I’m also very involved with my two nephews, so patience and attentiveness come naturally to me. One of the most meaningful experiences I’ve had was caring for our family dog, Toby, in his later years. As the youngest, it became my responsibility to make sure he was comfortable, safe, and well cared for as he aged. He lived to be 16, and that experience taught me a lot about compassion, consistency, and the importance of attentive care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I already structure my days around being consistent, active, and attentive. I’m used to building my schedule around responsibilities, so walks, feeding times, and check-ins feel like a natural part of my day rather than something extra. On a weekly basis, I regularly help care for my sister’s dogs, so I’m already in the rhythm of walking, feeding, and spending quality time with pets. I also keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they need without rushing. Overall, I enjoy having pet care as part of my routine—it keeps me active, present, and doing something I genuinely enjoy. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences—so your pet feels safe and stress-free in their own environment. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship, not just the basics. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I provide a clean, calm, and safe environment where they can relax. I keep a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and bathroom breaks, and I’m always attentive to their behavior and needs. I make sure they feel included and comfortable, whether that means active play or just relaxing nearby. No matter the setting, my priority is making sure each pet feels secure, cared for, and happy while you’re away.

Allen was great! I needed a last minute sitter and Allen was the perfect choice. Great communication and put up with my silly dogs with no complaints. Left my house in great condition. I look forward to having him stay with my beasties again. Thank you so much! 💜

About: I didn't have dogs growing up but I always pet-sat for friends and family. I have dog-sat, walked, and groomed dogs of all sizes. I also grew up riding horses so I have a ton of experience handling dogs and other animals together. My first dog was a 100 pound German shepherd/ Rottweiler mix who was my heart and soul. We lived with a big Rottweiler for a few years so I got very comfortable handling multiple large dogs on my own. Then when I got married my ex husband and I had my old dog, two pit bulls, and a cattle dog/ jack russel mix. I was there sole care taker and they taught me so much. I got divorced and it was just me and my shepherd, who sadly passed away in 2022. Fast forward to now and I have a 5 year old son and a Dalmatian/ terrier mix. We treat her as well as we treat my little boy. We recently (well in the last year) added a young female foxhound to the family. She is SO sweet and silky and has been the best addition to our mix! The past ten or so years have given me so much experience caring for multiple dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperments. I’m just super passionate about giving my animals and those I care for the absolute best care I can. It’s also given me experience administering medication, giving shots, walking multiple dogs at a time, feeding special individualized diets, taking care of a special needs dog, etc. I’m just a true animal lover :) I am currently not working so my schedule is incredibly flexible to meet your pets needs around the clock. I wake up early, let the dogs out in the backyard, feed them, let them out again. They usually play outside for a little bit before coming inside to nap. When my husband gets home we take them on walks, play in the yard, or go walk our favorite trail. Then we go home, feed dinner, and relax until bed time! At home my dog is walked Atleast three times a day, and one of those walks is always somewhere different- the beach, the park, the cross city trails, etc. When we’re hanging at home we provide lots of enrichment activities, playtime with toys, and also enjoy just snuggling on the couch. While your dog is in my care they will receive the same. We feed our dog a special diet and she requires daily allergy medication so meeting your dogs dietary and medication needs is no issue. Our dog is allowed on furniture, so as long as it is okay with you we have no problem with your pup joining us on the couch or in our bed. However if they aren’t allowed, we have multiple dog beds in each room so they can still be comfortable while we’re being lazy. Although we no longer have a fenced yard, our yard is pretty big and we take our dog out on the long lead often to sniff and play so your dog will receive lots of outside time as well.

Randall was wonderful! He was very precise and careful with my dogs schedule. My dog started off shy but quickly adjusted to Randall and was very comfortable. Coming back from my trip I was glad to see everything as I had left. He updated as much as I requested and sent photos so I knew my dog was well taken care of. Would recommend and contact again!

We were in a desperate situation after the loss of a close family member to assure that our 16+ year old, 85 lb, and extremely anxious dog had somebody here with him through the night so we could be totally present during the diffifcult days ahead. Bonnie was available, and immediately made plans to come by our house and meet with Brodie and us. There was no question that she was the right person to care for Brodie, as he responded immediately to her, and completely reassured us. Aside from the fact that she was completely dependable and responsible, she also had the perfect background and demeanor to care for Brodie, clearly someone who loves, and knows how to care for animals.

Skylar is amazing! She swooped in & saved the day by agreeing to watch our dog and 2 cats super last minute when a previous Rover bailed on us. She is very communicative and did everything we asked and more! Our dog warmed up to her faster than he’s ever warmed up to any other dog sitter. Skylar sent lots of pics/videos and we were not worried about our pets or our house at all while we were on vacation! Will 100% ask her to watch them again in the future.
