“Caitlin was so great! She was flexible and responsive leading up to the visit and sent me lots of pictures of my furry boy during her drop in. I can tell she did more than just refill the food bowl and clean the litter box— she spent some time giving my cat some much-needed attention and making him feel loved while I was gone. What more could I ask for? :)”

“Marisa is my dog sitter from before she was on Rover and to this day my go-to for the care of my beloved pets. She does well with my big rottweiler mix clementine who is quirky as well as my Chihuahua Enyo who has very refined tastes in humans. Marisa has cared for my dogs for long and short stays (times when I was out of the country for months) and has cared for my older lady as she was on a complicated daily medicine regiment with no issues. I literally could not reccomend anyone more highly for your pet care needs. I don't know what I'd do without her help!!!”

“Stacy and Patrick came over twice to take care of our pup, Maka, while we were gone for a night. When we met them before booking, they were very receptive to everything we went over with them from quirks with our house to quirks with our dog! Maka also liked them both right away which is what we cared about most because it is very rare that we use dog sitter services and she can be a bit hesitant with strangers. Everything went very smoothly and I'll definitely reach out to them again if we need a sitter!”

About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, focusing on daily walks and overnight care. For the past 5 years, I have raised my own gentle pup, Poopoo, who is well-trained and keeps me experienced in consistent walking, feeding, and providing comfort at night. Before that, I spent 2 years in Korea helping my family raise another dog, giving me a strong background in handling different breeds and personalities. I also have 2 cats at home who are very friendly with other pets! Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me not only to walk their dogs but also to care for them overnight when they travel. I make sure each dog feels safe and loved—whether it’s long walks for active dogs, gentle care for seniors, or overnight stays where they get the comfort of a steady routine. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to dog walks and overnight care. I usually work part-time, so I’m available for morning and evening walks on weekdays, as well as extended overnight stays when you need to travel. On weekends, I can offer even more flexible availability for boarding and longer walks, making sure your pup gets the exercise, love, and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At home, I live in a pet-friendly environment with a calm, well-trained dog who is used to other pets. I make sure walks are always safe—using secure leashes and keeping a close eye on surroundings. For overnight care, I provide a quiet and comfortable space where your pup can feel at ease, and I always follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, routines, and any special needs.

Caitlin was reliable and efficient in checking in on my cat, Lana, while I was traveling for a few days. She gave her dinner, managed all the necessities (litter, water, etc.), and provided pets and cuddles every time she visited, which is what Lana really cares about! Besides being reliable, Caitlin provided great recaps of her visits with Lana, with plenty of pictures and updates on how she was doing, which I looked forward to every night. 10/10 would book again!

Amanda is an amazing cat mom to my very old (18), very needy (diabetic!) kitty cat. I come home to a clean home and happy cat. She also looks after my two half-feral outside cats. She is a great communicator and sends pics of my cuties daily. Highly recommend Amanda!

Angela cat-sat for us for a long weekend and did a great job with our cat. He's only been with us for about 1.5 months, so his routine can be a little tricky. She accommodated him wonderfully, and he appeared very happy when we returned.

Sarah is a godsend. My cat may love her more than me 😂 Seriously, if Sarah isn't available then I just don't travel. I don't trust my pet and home with anyone else. She goes above and beyond, and is so dependable and good with communication. The peace of mind she provides is worth 10x what she charges.

Gerome's natural ability to commune with animals was present during both drop off and pick up of my cat. I returned to find my selective/discerning sweet pea snuggled up with her pet sitter in a relaxed and trusting pose. She did not want to come back with me! I will choose Gerome in the future to care for my love. Gerome was highly communicative during my time away from my cat. She sent me many photo updates, which allowed me to feel at ease during our separation.
