“Amanda was a great dog sitter. She was responsive and communicated well during her check-ins with my dogs. She was able to help on short notice after our arranged sitter fell through. My corgis were happy to see her each day. She went above and beyond to help care for our dogs. Highly recommend.”


“Sharon was a true god sent! After a prior experience with someone outside of rover that left us weary about ever leaving our dogs again, SHARON CHANGED THE GAME FOR US ♥️ She is so loving, spent long amounts of time just hanging out with our babies, followed directions perfectly and truly has a love for animals. We just got back from a weekend trip, and our dogs were not anxious and barely even cared we were back 😂♥️ she also left a cutie note/goodie bag for our babies on her final visit. We are so glad we found you Sharon! Xoxo”


About: I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs,Chickens and many other small animals. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering medications, cleaning homes and crates, grooming, and providing companionship. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs and routines. Whether it’s an energetic dog who loves long walks or a shy dog who prefers quiet cuddles, I tailor my care to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine by making it a consistent part of my schedule. Each day, I set aside time in the morning and evening to feed my pet, refresh their water, and clean up any messes. I also make sure to give them attention through walks, playtime, or simply spending time together. Weekly, I include tasks like grooming, deep cleaning their living space, and restocking food or supplies. By keeping a regular routine, I ensure my pet stays healthy, happy, and well-cared for while balancing the rest of my responsibilities. Make them feel as comfortable as possible. Offer them treats,food,and attention. I make sure the animals have plenty of room to run around and play,but also comfortable spots to sleep and eat.

“Kristin is amazing! My cat loves her and I do too! She is great with communication and always sends me the cutest pictures during her check ins. They make me smile and brighten my day. I highly recommend her!”


“Destiny was absolutely wonderful. I just got home from my weekend trip and found Kylo like I’d never left him :) Her communication is 10/10. Pictures and check ins were 10/10. She even took the time to come meet us before my trip. I hope she continues doing this because I can’t imagine having anyone else but Destiny.”



About: I have a deep love and compassion for animals, and caring for them brings me true joy and fulfillment.

I enjoy learning about their unique behaviors and needs, and I take pride in being gentle, patient, and responsible. I work part time under 20 hours a week which allows me to take care of my babies and allows to me to take care of yours as well. every animal is unique and each requires different needs. whether it be diet restriction to different toys they like the most. the most important thing is making sure your pet is comfortable around me and to make it as easy as possible for your pet to enjoy being with someone else that they are not used to yet.

“Ali was wonderful with our Great Dane, Willow. Without Ali, we wouldn't have been able to take our family trip. What a perfect match to care for our girl! Such a great experience for everyone. Thank you so much Ali!!”


About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. My babies are lifers. Your animal is my number one priority. I prefer animals over humans any day I quit my job to walk dogs full time. I’m always available if you need me. Your babies are my babies. I’d prefer dogs over humans I have a fenced in yard and no one can escape. I abide by what the client asks for in their and my own home. I walk, play with your dog if toys are presented

“Cameron was great from his first response through his visit. Two minutes into his meet and greet I knew he was the one Alfie and Mitzie would love. Arrived right on time for both the meet and greet and his appointment, sent pictures, and left a note when he left. Now I can look for other places to go knowing my pups will be well cared for!”


About: I’ve been working as a veterinary technician for 5 years now. I am comfortable giving any type of medication. I have 6 pets of my own, 3 dogs and 3 cats. I have lots of puppy experience! I’m working part time right now. I work Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays and sometimes Friday or Saturday morning. I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! My dogs are all crate trained and leash walked outside to go potty. My puppy is only 4 pounds so she goes potty on puppy pads. I will follow whatever routine is established for your pet!

About: Hello ! My name is Amanda and I have been around dogs my entire life. I’ve recently moved into a new house and am looking to get back into helping you and your pets ! I have never known what it is like to live in a house without at least one dog and I don't think I ever will. I started pet sitting for family and friends about 8 years ago and haven't looked back. I have experience with all different breeds ranging from Huskies to Chihuahuas. I also have experience with there being more than one dog in the house so that is no problem. I currently have two dogs, Leo and Koda. Leo is a 11 year old Terrier/Toy Collie mix and Koda is a 8 year old Catahoula mix. I recently added an addition to the family and now have a 1 year old cat named Sushi as well! I a have experience with other animals such as birds, reptiles, rabbits, etc., so I can gladly help out with anything along those lines as well. I would love to help you and your furry friends out ! I can also provide references upon request :) I currently work remotely full time so I am home all week. I am also able to leave periodically during the morning and afternoon for walks and can work remotely from anywhere if house sitting is required. I have a very flexible schedule ! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. My cat also thinks he’s a dog and is very friendly and social. I also have lots of space if your animal needs to be crated at any point.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I’ve had extremely large pets and the daintiest little animals. I am always the person at parties petting whatever animal I can get my hands on. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for a long time and I am always happy to do so. Feeding, walking, play time, and enrichment are all things I love to do and do regularly with my dog. My schedule is pretty open except for the occasional doctors appointment and caring for my dad. I tend to be able to work around any conflicts to help better serve others. I treat all pets as if they’re my own. Safe walks, making sure the ground isn’t too hot, hydration, and some kind of stimulation makes a happy pup. If it is too hot for walking, and depending on what you’re comfortable with, either a walk indoors at a dog friendly store or enrichment in the home, or just playtime on grass can be offered.

About: I do it all. I walk/run with dogs of all sizes. I'm not worried about getting dirty. If your dog gets dirty, bath time is my favorite. Clean up all messes including in your own yard. I tuck dogs in for bedtime. I will bring your dog to his/her vet appointments if need be. I love to cuddle no matter the breed as long as your dog likes it too. I have experience with "troublesome" dogs and might even be able to provide some tips that have helped me in my experience. If you have other pets I will care for them too. I have experience with cats, birds, tarantulas, turtles, fish, lizards, rabbits, chickens, horses, and small rodents. Most importantly, I will contact you upon every arrival and departure with details on the visit.

About: Hi! my name is Ragan Hoffman and I am a Graduate from Rider University where I studied Technical Theater and Arts Administration. I have a 2 year old German Shepard who I trained on my own. I have been dog sitting for family, friends and neighbors for about 8 years now with all types of breeds. I also worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility! I am willing to work with you on a schedule that works best for your dogs and I would be happy to help you and your pooch anyway that I can. I am also a photographer for fun and can take photos of your pets for you! I am available any day of the week! Most times during day. And can do weekend drop ins when needed! I am Very flexible and looking forward to spending time with your pups! I will not be offering in home care. As this would cause stress for my own dog but, I am willing to do drop in visits or walks!
