“What a great experience! Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our bunny. She was reliable, and sent us photos and updates of her drop in. We'll definitely ask Sarah to watch Mochi again!”


“Going on trips for few days feel so easy now because of Lindy! She took care of my cat Pepper while I was a way for coupe days. Lindy is caring, attentive and reliable! Thanks Lindy!”


About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since I was little. I have helped family and friends take care of their pets when they are out of town. I am a stay at home mom so this gives me plenty of time to care for your pets when you are out of town. To ensure your pet is safe and will not escape and well taken care of I would make sure fence gates and or house doors are shut and locked

“Maleny is the best!! She follow all instructions(we left a lot of specific info) and she truly care about our cats! The attention to the details is outstanding!!! We recommend her 100%!!!!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the last 12 years including my own and those of family and friends. I currently have 2 dogs with varying health needs who require a lot of love and attention, so I’m very comfortable meeting any needs your pet may have. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, medication administration, specialized diets, varying exercise needs, reactive dogs, and some experience with dogs undergoing training programs. I am currently a graduate student so I’ll have plenty of time throughout the day to care for your pet. I am available week days and weekends. I don’t offer boarding but I am happy to comply with any requests you have including crating, several walks daily, yard play, in-house rules, or taking your fur baby to a local park. My own dogs are big cuddlers so I have no issue if your pet likes a little extra attention. You and your pet’s comfort is my priority.

“Kevin watched our three cats for a couple of days. Which is no easy task! One of our cats can be feisty and another one needs insulin shots twice a day. This was our first time having to book a pet sitter we didn't know personally, but our experience with Kevin was great. He was in frequent communication and would send pictures of our cats every visit. I would recommend and use Kevin again as a pet sitter!”


About: Former dog boarder/dog daycare host now serving your needs for dog walking, check ins, or house sits. I have many years experience caring for puppies, many different dog breeds, kittens, and senior cats. Animal care is my full-time job and can be very flexible for your needs. Animals become family and my kids like to step in as well. Aside from homeschooling my kids, we like to fill up our schedule with dog and cat love! I keep myself up to date on animal knowledge and emergency aid such as dog CPR, preventing injury, or administering medicine. You can never be too careful and safety is always the top priority.

About: As the small business owner of dog daycare and pet boarding facility since 2017, I know how important it is for pet parents like you and me to find quality pet services with the highest of standards for care and safety. While I still own and operate my boarding and daycare facility, the increase in demand for in-home pet sitting for geriatric, timid, or just flat out spoiled pets (they deserve it!) has peaked my interest, and I’d love to be able to continue to contribute my professional pet care knowledge and experience to pet parents like you in a more 1:1 setting. Prior to owning my business, I worked at a pet hospital for a couple years learning how to properly care for and handle anxious, timid, and wiggly dogs and cats, which I have been able to grow significantly in my pet boarding and daycare career. I am no stranger to medication administration and other special care needs (whether behavioral or physical) and truly enjoy getting to know each pet (and their parents!) who I have the honor to work with 1:1. Transparency, excellent communication, safety, and reliability are all incredibly important to me when it comes to working with pet parents like yourself. Whether through my own pet care business or through Rover, I never want a pet parent to worry about their pet's care, safety, or comfortability while away, which I practice through daily updates and 24/7 availability to communicate. Additional services can be discussed during our initial meet-and-greet! When I'm not working, I enjoy caring for my own pets, including several horses, goats, two golden retrievers, a couple barn kitties, a cockatiel, and guinea pig. Since I'm a remote business owner, I have relatively flexible and open availability during the week, over weekends, and during the holidays! While advance notice is highly preferred and recommended, I can usually squeeze in overnight or daytime drop-in visits and walks for emergencies and last minute plans. I am more than happy to cater to your preferences when it comes to entering and leaving your home including triple checking doors and gates are locked, crating your pup before leaving (if desired), checking for and cleaning up after any messes, leaving lights on or ensuring they're turned off before departing, etc. If no specific instructions are given, I will treat your home as I would my own, and reach out to you with any questions, concerns, or updates.

About: Hi! My name is Liv and I adore taking care of pets. I have had experience with all sizes of dogs, but I also love cats! I am currently in school from Monday to Thursday. Therefore I am fully available on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! Anytime on these days works for me. It is extremely important to me to create a safe and loving environment for your pet. Building trust and comfort is my number one goal.

About: I have taken care of friends and families animals for a long time, most animals in my life have needed more than the basic care levels. This has made me excel at sticking to schedules, feeding times, medicine and potty breaks are all something that is very common for me. I work part time on a changing schedule, this allows me to plan out a month in advance for any pet sitting needs. I can easily work my schedule into taking care of animals. I am someone who will stay or stop by your home while you are away depending on which service you would like from me. I am more than comfortable staying at your home so that the animals are less stressed while you are away.

About: While I haven’t officially been in charge of someone else’s pet (yet!), animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently live with five dogs and four cats—yes, it’s as chaotic and furry as it sounds. I’ve grown up surrounded by pets, so things like feeding routines, cleaning up messes, giving meds, and decoding weird animal behavior are second nature. I know how to respect their space, match their energy, and give them love on their terms. Basically, I’m very used to being the human in a house run by animals. I already spend most of my day around animals—feeding them, playing with them, making sure they don’t commit chaos (or at least that they do it safely). Pet care fits naturally into my routine because it is my routine. Whether it’s morning walks, late-night zoomies, or chill cuddle time, I’m used to working my schedule around whatever pets need. I treat every animal like they’re royalty (or gremlins, if that’s more accurate). Whether I’m in my home or yours, I pay close attention to their needs—making sure they have clean water, the right food, lots of attention, and a safe, calm space. I follow whatever rules or routines they’re used to so they feel secure. I also fully respect boundaries, both yours and your pet’s, and I’ll always communicate clearly so you know how things are going.

About: I’ve taken care of animals from dogs and cats to horses and gerbils since I was a kid. I’ve worked in the vet industry for over 5 years and know my way around the health of your fur baby. I strive to care for the needs of your pet in the time of your absence like they were my own. I’m currently taking care of and walking fur babies full time. I’m very flexible and am available most days for drop-ins and walks. I’m available to house-sit as well in the comfort of your fur babies home with reasonable know time in advance. Just reach out and I’m sure we can figure something out Having someone who isn’t family stay in your home with your fur baby can be daunting, but I take the upmost care of your fur baby and the household. I have a motto to “leave it better than I found it” meaning I may end up cleaning the whole house in the process of cleaning up after myself haha. Whatever care instructions you have for your pet I will follow to the t as well as pick up after myself and respect your space.
