About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life and have always had pets, ranging from hedgehogs to donkeys! I am very passionate about animal care and ensuring all animals are pampered and well-loved. My family and I recently lost our two oldest pups, 16-year-old queen diva ZuZu Bailey and 10 year old loveable doofus Bandit. They were huge parts of our life and we miss them terribly, but through the loss we gained Stevie Nicks and Princess Buttercup. They love to play with others! They are accompanied by 2 cats who are treated like royalty and have their own enclosed catio with tunnels. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, as well as giving medications or tending to special needs. Your pet(s) will be in a safe environment and receive the same love and attention as ours! I teach part-time, so I am often home during weekdays and always during summers. When I do work, I am only a short distance and can easily come home during the day to check on the furry friends. Our fenced, spacious yard is perfect for galavanting and play. Our youngest pup is still learning not to chew the remote and is kenneled only if she will be alone for an extended amount of time. Otherwise, dogs are free to roam in our house!

“Vivian took exceptional care of our fur babies while we were gone for a long vacation! She took the time to bond and play with our cats and sent us detailed updates with pictures. We had great peace of mind knowing they were in her care! She was super accommodating as well and even watered our flowers and filled plant humidifiers daily! Definitely recommend her services!”

“Absolutely amazing! This was my first time trying Rover and I look forward to using it again! Christina was amazing and responded quickly to my very short notice request. She was loving and caring to my 2 cats and my crazy high energy German Shepard. 10/10 would book with her again and will recommend to any fur parents I know in the future!”

“Austin was fantastic to work with a did a great job watching our kitties. He was able to get our shy kitty to come out with just 3 visits and some of our family hasn't even been able to see him yet. He sent great pictures and went above and beyond for us. Would highly recommend using Austin to watch your pets when out of town!”

It’s clear Milo was well cared for and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in her care and would not hesitate to trust her with Milo again. I highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a dependable caring person who genuinely looks after pets as if they were her own.”

About: I’ve taken care of family and friends dogs growing up. When I was in college I worked at a doggy day care where I took care of multiple dogs, including feeding, taking them on walks, and giving them lots of love. If they needed any special attention such as medication, I did that as well. I am available most weekends, Friday - Sunday, to watch your fur baby. Friday’s around 5PM work best for me and can watch them until Sunday evening as well. I live in a dog friendly neighborhood where I have a yard and lots of space to take them on walks. I ensure that there is nothing unsafe in my home that a dog can get into. I will make sure to give all my attention to your loved one :)

About: Ive had 4 dogs throughout my entire life! Dogs are my #1 animal. Im so interested in how they love and connect with people. They understand you on a different level than humans🩷 I can dog-sit for days, weekend, and even weeks. You can count of me in making your dog feel safe & loved. Just let me know 1 or 2 week(s) prior, so i can clear my schedule. I can even take last minutes as well, if im able to! My sisters Safaree would always come in my room when it’s time to sleep to cuddle while i pet him to sleep. It’s beautiful to admire how much he does this every night, even him following me everywhere around the house & join me on the couch for more cuddles.

Rachel is amazing! Maybe a "cat whisperer?!" First time leaving my dog for more than 1 night. I loved the pics I got more than I expected! It eased my mind, so I could concentrate on my work trip duties. She gave great care & love to my 2 cats and 1 dog. Highly recommend! Good job, I will use again!

Paige did a great job and was available on a short notice which I very much appreciated. Also one of our dogs was being playfully defiant and she was patient and ended up getting him to drop his ball and come back inside. Thanks for the great service!
