About: I've had cats since I was a child. Neighbors, roommates, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of pets when they are gone. This has included feeding at a specific time in a specific way and at times giving medication. With a former roommate, I also found and rescued a young female cat during law school, and she turned out to be pregnant. We bathed and brushed her several times to get rid of fleas, got her spayed after pregnancy, and rehomed the kittens. I've had my own cat for a few years now, and I understand needing to maintain their routine and monitoring diet to address issues such as regurgitation of food due to poor city water quality or eating too fast or sensitive stomach issues. I am an attorney and can visit the cats in the mornings and evenings and during the weekend at regular times and ensure they receive love and playtime. I do not care for pets in my home, as my apartment is too small and my cat is more of an only child. However, I am very much able to spend at least a couple hours each day with my clients' cat(s) to feed them, maintain cleanliness of their spaces, play with them with their favorite toys, and give them pets as each cat prefers.
“Jill continues to provide above and beyond services with our fur babies. She shares a ton of photos during her visits and it’s apparent that our animals love her.”

“Kelsey is an absolute gem! She met our dogs where they were at, is kind, and totally reliable. Our dogs absolutely adore her. Couldn't recommend Kelsey's services enough!”


“Andrea was phenomenal! It is evident that caring for pets is her area of expertise. I was apprehensive about hiring someone to watch our cat but Andrea put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying. We received daily updates of texts and pictures which we looked forward to seeing at the end of the day. I look forward to having Andrea take care of our cat in the future and would highly recommend her to others.”

“Danielle was attentive, always in contact, and did her due diligence in dealing with my reactive dog. I could not have asked for a better sitter while I was gone for family reasons. If she’d be willing I’d definitely book her again!”

“Angela was great! She is very experienced and very comfortable with any and all instructions I gave! She took great care of my cats, and I never worried about them while I was gone!”

About: Hi! We're lifelong dog lovers with plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. We have two friendly dogs of our own who are part of the family, so we understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Our home has a fully fenced yard, giving dogs a safe and secure space to play, explore, and burn off energy. Over the years, we've cared for many dogs through pet sitting and have also fostered dogs, giving us experience with different temperaments, routines, and special needs. Whether your dog loves to play, go for walks, or simply relax and get plenty of cuddles, we'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. We treat every dog as if they were our own and are committed to providing reliable, attentive care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. We can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! Please note: For the safety of all pets in our care, we require up-to-date proof of Rabies vaccination before confirming any booking. We are a loving family of 2 adults and 2 dogs. One of us works from home full time and the other works not too far away from home so your pets will be well loved. We have a fenced yard to keep your doggies safe and 2 dogs of our own that love having "friends" over. We have done foster care for dogs and have also dog sat dogs.

About: Growing up in a house of animals, and having a small zoo of my own (2 dogs and 2 cats), I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I have dog and cat sat for friends for years. I am currently available for Drop ins and Walks. I try to spend a bare minimum of 15 minutes with any drop in to make sure they get all the attention that they need. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I understand that all Walks aren't created equal. My Walks always vary based off of the needs of the dog. I am also an avid cat lover. I am more than happy to stop by and feed, clean the litter box, and snuggle/play with your feline friends. Currently I work full time on the West side of the cities, but I have Sundays and Mondays off to help with your animal needs. My hope is to expand my availability over time. My current weekend lines up with some weekdays. I spend most of those days out and about, so I'd love to check in on some cute animal while I am at it! Slow and steady is always best. I am a believer in letting animals come to you. I have experience with a kennel trained and unkennel trained dogs. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I am experienced in walking all sizes of dogs.
“Liz is a dream pet sitter and we’d hire her again in a heartbeat. She’s an excellent communicator, asks thoughtful questions and did a great job looking after our cats and home while we were away for an extended holiday.”

“Thanks so much for taking care of my babies! Isabella did a great job, as a flight attendant who was already gone on a work trip and needed last-minute help, she came through and did a fantastic job!”

About: I’ve shared my life with dogs at every stage, from playful puppies to beloved seniors. I’ve cared for senior dogs through mobility challenges, including taking my senior dog to aqua therapy and learning how to safely help my Boxer-Lab mix navigate stairs with arthritis. My Shih Tzu eventually experienced both blindness and significant hearing loss, but that never dampened their zest for life. Those experiences taught me to be patient, observant, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs and abilities. As for what I enjoy most? It’s a tie between walking dogs on a beautiful day and settling in for some serious snuggle time and belly rubs. And yes—pooper scooping is absolutely no problem! I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed. Whether your dog is energetic, elderly, extra cuddly, or needs a little additional help getting around, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the care, patience, and affection they deserve. I currently work part-time Monday through Friday, as an AmeriCorps volunteer reading tutor, which gives me the flexibility to devote time to something else I truly love—animals! Potty breaks or walks every 2–4 hours are no problem, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs. Plus, walking your dog gives me a great excuse to get some exercise myself! I’m also available for weekend house sitting with your pet, including stays that begin Friday and extend through Monday. My flexible schedule allows me to make pet care a meaningful part of my life—and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar surroundings, so I’m happy to care for them in their home. I respect your home, your routines, and—most importantly—your wishes for your pet’s care. I carefully follow your instructions so your pet’s schedule stays as consistent and comfortable as possible while you’re away. My approach is gentle, patient, and attentive. I take the time to get to know each pet and let them set the pace, whether they want a walk, playtime, companionship, or simply a quiet presence. I also believe that caring for your pet means caring for your home. I’m tidy and respectful, and I will leave your home as I found it—or a little cleaner. My goal is for you to come home knowing your pet was loved and well cared for, and that your home was treated with the same respect I would want for my own.
About: I've been helping friends and family out with their pets since I was in junior high. I'm comfortable with all types of dogs and I love being outside. I'm reliable, communicative, and will always make sure your dog is taken care of. I work full time and I don't have the schedule or house set up to accommodate my own dog right now but since I can make my own schedule with Rover it allows me to still spend time with dogs and also help out owners. I currently don't have a fenced in yard so I will either walk your dog or supervise them in my backyard. My house is small but comfortable and is easy for your pet to move around in.
“Natalie did great with my special-needs cat. I was short on time due to a different pet sitter canceling last-minute, and Natalie handled all of my requests perfectly. Will definitely book again.”

About: I've spent years caring for both cats and dogs, including lots of time with our family dog. I'm patient, organized, and happy to follow your routine to the letter. Morning and evening drop-ins are my specialty. I'm a quick, reliable check-in while you're at work or out of town, so your cat never goes without food, a clean litter box, or company. Your home is your sanctuary, and I treat it that way. I lock up, keep things tidy, and leave everything as I found it. If anything seems off, you'll hear from me right away. In clients homes, I will -follow any notes left for care and routine -feed, walk, and play according to their needs -keeps pets living area and play space tidy -monitor health and behaviors and report any changes to the owner -respect the home and clients privacy

Ashley saved the day! At the last minute, our work schedules changed, and we needed someone to come by and let our puppy Daisy out and spend some time with her. She showed up on time and was respectful of Daisy's routine. She always provided updates after each visit. We were so relieved it worked out, and we were able to find someone to step in while my husband and I were at work. I cannot recommend Ashley enough! We will definitely have her in the future!

Michaela was an excellent helper with our cat while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with, gave us regular updates, and let us know about things that were going on with our home in addition to the standard pet care. Such a relief to have a trustworthy and experienced person with our cat while we're out of state. We highly recommend Michaela and would happily book with her again.

Michelle was so lovely and I felt like Crash was truly left in wonderful hands. She did amazing with updating me and just keeping me in the loop as well as doing everything in my google.doc to ensure Crash needs were met. Crash felt really safe and seemed to really enjoy her company. I know the next time I go on a trip, i will definitely be rebooking with her.

We can't say enough good things about Amanda. Our cat gets very anxious whenever we travel, so leaving him is always stressful for us too. Amanda made it easy. She was incredibly communicative, sent regular updates, and clearly cared about making our cat comfortable. It was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. We'll definitely be booking Amanda again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter!

I have two high energy dogs, one of which can be reactive and a trouble maker. Natalie was patient, understanding, and excited to hang out with them for a couple hours while we were out for the day. She was responsive with communication, on time, and sent lots of pictures to let us know everything was going well. I would definitely enlist her help again!
