“Jamie has been such a good addition to my dog team. Roxy, the very busy cattle dog, is sweet but reactive and headstrong. Jamie handles her so well. Roxy loves her, and she’s getting her walk needs met while I’m down with a broken arm. Highly recommend Jamie!”

“AMAZING. If you need someone reliable and that goes beyond this is your sitter. She picked up my request last minute. Ann-Marie provide detailed reviews.

About: My husband and I own our home in the Sedgwick neighborhood, which has a fenced-in backyard and lots of safe space for long walks and playtime. We have years of experience caring for our dogs and sitting for friends who own dogs in a wide range of sizes and breeds. I pride myself on how well dogs listen to me when I try to train them to listen and maybe try a trick or two to keep their minds engaged and give them an enriching daily life. Please consider hiring us; your furry friends will be safe in very loving and nurturing hands. We both work less than 15 minutes away from home (Mon, Tuesday, Thursday, 830-4) with full availability on Wednesday (wfh), Friday (wfh), Saturday and Sunday. Because of our sedentary work lives, we try to stay active when we're not working with lots of walks and time outside. Owning our own home with a fenced-in yard allows us to give dogs of any size the room to explore and rest wherever they feel comfortable. We are attentive and LOVE the energy that a dog brings to our home. Having a pet around makes all the difference, especially when we can tell that they feel safe and enriched with play and comfort every day. Pet sitting is a win-win-win for us, your pet, and you!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by 5 English Mastiffs, a pitbull, and 5 cats, so I’ve cared for pets of all sizes and personalities. Most recently, I had the privilege of caring for my dog Rex during his final months, which gave me experience with health issues, medications, and supporting pets with disabilities. Over the years, I’ve also watched many different dogs, and nothing makes me happier than when they come back for another stay! It feels like welcoming back old friends. Being around animals truly brings out the best in me, and I treat every pet as if they’re part of my own family. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and gentle, or needs a little extra care, I’ll provide the love and attention they deserve. Feel free to contact me with any questions at any time! I’m available every day for walks and house sitting! I’m currently in PA school and have just one in person class from 8:30-11 Monday-Thursday. If I have to leave them for any amount of time I will be fully transparent and I will make sure it’s within the time frame you prefer! If needed I can take a pet for a day. I’m currently in graduate school at Upstate Medical and just have a class from 8:30-11. But your pet will always be treated like a family member! They will be safe, loved, and well fed. I love playing outside with dogs because it’s the best part of their day!

“Candy was absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She was incredibly punctual and brave enough to come out even in the bitter cold, which we really appreciated. I was especially impressed by how she connected with our new rescue; she was empathetic, patient, and really understood what our pup needed. We will definitely be asking for her time again in the future. Overall, a great experience!”

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for roughly the last 5 years. I love how sweet and cuddly animals are and I hope you will trust me to watch yours! I currently work full time, so I am available during weekends and after 5pm! I still have plenty of time to play with your animals💗 Though I do not have any animals of my own, whenever I watch someone else’s, I treat them like I would if they were mine 💗 I keep an active eye on them and make sure they aren’t supposed to get into anything they shouldn’t be in.

About: I have professional dog walking and in-house dog sitting experience as well as a deep love and appreciation for the wisdom of dogs. From 30 minute - 1 hour walks and visits to longer term care, I’d be thrilled to keep your dog happy when you are away. I’d say I’m quite receptive to dog personalities and can provide pets, cuddles, scratches, walks, dances, etc. Maybe your dog isn’t into cuddling and playing around — that’s okay too. I respect that and will keep a healthy distance. We will walk. We may talk. I can send you quality candid photos and even possibly montage video of our time together with my filmmaking background and skills. I can promise safe and exciting play sessions of any length.

About: I have never taken care of pets professionally, but I have had pets in my house since I was a baby. My first pet was a rabbit. I have had dogs, cats, fish, mice, hamster and a rat. I currently have a dog and 2 cats that are rescues. I am a stay at home mom. My daughter is in Pre-K and is home Tuesday and Thursday, so she comes with me on Rover jobs. She’s been doing this since she was born and loves it. I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats, if you just need someone to let them out to use the bathroom, take them on a walk, or just let them stretch and play, I’m the person for the job

“Tiera was great with my 5 month old gsp puppy. She has a lot of energy but she wrangled her well. This was my first time leaving her alone or hiring a dog walker so I was a little nervous but Tiera was awesome and I appreciated the updates and photos of her walks. I’ll definitely book her again in the future!”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them! I have a 4-year-old dog of my own who is friendly, playful, and gets along great with other dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different personalities and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. When your pup is in my care, I’ll treat them like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll do my best to give you peace of mind with regular updates and lots of love for your furry friend! 🐶❤️ I’m available most weekends and have more flexibility to spend time with your pup. Monday through Friday, I work from 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM. Before work, I always make sure my own dog gets outside for some morning exercise and attention. When I get home, we spend time playing and relaxing together in our fenced-in yard. Your pup will be welcomed into our routine and given plenty of love, attention, and playtime! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and get some exercise, and I’ll always supervise outdoor time. I have a friendly 4-year-old dog who gets along great with other dogs and can provide a companion for your pup. I’ll make sure every dog in my care feels comfortable, secure, and treated like part of the family. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special instructions.

About: I am great with animals, dogs love being around me. I enjoy being outside walking them. My experience as a dog walker is limited to my friend’s dog, Leo, who I often dog sat. Being with Leo brought me such joy. It also created space for my friend to prioritize other important tasks for she knew Leo was in trusted hands. I am available for dogs walk from 5pm- 7pm on Tuesday’s and Wednesdays. Sundays 2pm-5pm. Saturday from 12pm- 7pm. Overall this is an exciting part of my day that I look forward to. I walk dogs only when they are on a leash. I bring treats to incentivize the walk. I Give them time to rest, poop and play.

Adriana is a great walker! She is responsible and really cares about animals. She always sends pictures and is on time for walks. She defended our dog when another dog got loose and attacked him, if that doesn’t show how dedicated she is then I don’t know what does. I highly recommend her, your pet will be in great hands.

Jill was absolutely fantastic. She walked our Chihuahua, Mocha, for several days a week over about a month while my wife and I were both working, and she was incredibly reliable, communicative, and caring throughout. Mocha can be anxious around new people and situations, but Jill was patient with her and quickly earned her trust. She always followed our instructions, kept us updated, and went above and beyond by giving attention to our two cats as well, which we really appreciated. Knowing Mocha was in such good hands gave us tremendous peace of mind during the workday. We were sad to see her leave to return to college, but we’re very grateful for all of her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter or dog walker. Thank you, Jill!

Thank you so much for taking extra good care of Ranger. I know he can be handful as he’s still a puppy in an adult body. You went above and beyond with pictures and the details of his outing. It makes me feel so good to know he was in such good hands while I was away for the day.
