About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles, and birds personally and professionally for more than 10 years. I am very comfortable around all kinds of animals. Growing up and through adulthood, my family always owned Golden Retrievers; there were always two dogs in the home at a time. When I was young, I expressed interest in animal care and owning my own pets. I cared for small mammals, birds, and reptiles. Currently, I own a four year old ball python named Dream. In my teenage years, I started out pet sitting for family friends and have continued to pick up pet/house sitting gigs whenever and wherever I can. I also have experience administering medication to some of the dogs and cats I have cared for. Professionally, I have worked at a veterinary hospital and boarding facility during the summer of 2013 and 2014. At this facility, I was responsible for the care and socialization of dogs of various sizes and demeanors. From May 2017 to January 2018, I worked at my local humane society caring for cats and dogs with different lead styles, temperaments and bite thresholds. I was also responsible for providing the dogs with three walks a day. Through this job, I also have some experience with clicker training and administering bordatella and rabies vaccines to incoming stray dogs. Looking to make extra money doing what I love! Unless otherwise noted on my calendar, I am available any time on Saturdays & Sundays, and depending on my full-time job schedule, I am available during the week to do mid-day check ins, evening check-ins and walks. I am also open to staying at your place to care for your pets. I provide regular photos and updates to owners to build and instill trust. I also make sure to follow care instructions as written to ensure proper care as intended. And I make sure to bring a calm and confident energy when entering and inhabiting your pet’s space. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority!

“Madison did a fantastic job house sitting for my dog Maggie who is a large Boxer mix. She was reliable, shared pictures and updates and took great care of Maggie and my house! I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation because I wasn't worried about my dog or my home. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!”


“Ruah took care of our dog over the Christmas holiday. She was super easy to communicate with. Our dog was so happy when we got home, and our house was spotless. Thanks Ruah!!”


“Andrea is a wonderful dog sitter. She takes great care of my older poodle and sends lots of pictures when I am away. The staff in my building all love her. She is respectful and always asks questions if she is uncertain of anything.”


About: I have had dogs for most of my life. I have recently had to put my Staffordshire Bull Terrier down due to age and multiple growths on her body . I was devastated. I love animals and would like to share that love with them. I work full time, but I have so much down time on my hands and would like to offer my services to get the dog(s) out for walks and exercise/play. I currently work full time, but I have a lot of down time to come and play with your pups! Walks and exercise as well as a lot of love. I currently live in an apartment. As long as the dog (s) are potty trained, I can board them on the weekends. I am also able to transport them to a dog park for additional exercise.

“Rebecca has an infectious personality and Minnie and Little Bear warmed up to her immediately. You can feel the love Rebecca has for animals and the desire to take care of them when you meet her. This was the first time Rebecca has taken care of my fur babies and the experience was great. I will be using her services again in the near future.”


About: I have always had a genuine love for animals, that taking care of them has never felt like a job! I have experience with all kinds of pets and grew up with both dogs and cats. My schedule is super flexible since I only work part-time from 3–7 PM and I'm happy to host your pet in my fenced backyard or stay at your place! I’m also very big on communication and love to send daily photo updates of your loved ones. My animals meant the world to me growing up so I know how much your animals mean to you and I want you to know that they would be in gentle and loving hands!! I am currently working part time from 3-7pm every day except Saturday and I am available before and after time to help out with your animals! Before every new client I always communicate extensively with what they are looking for and needing from me. Each animal is so different and the owner knows it’s pet best which is why it’s so important to communicate what their animal needs.

“I recently had the pleasure of using Geily for three days, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the start, she was professional, reliable, and, most importantly, incredibly loving towards my dog. My pup immediately warmed up to her, which is a great sign. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and adorable photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in excellent hands. Geily went above and beyond, making sure my dog was well-exercised, fed on schedule, and showered with attention. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic dog sitter!”


“Hannah was wonderful - she was highly responsive before and during her stay, took great care of our home and dog, and left everything spotless! We will definitely work with Hannah again!”


“Evan was super present and provided lots of pictures and feedback while taking care of our two older dogs. Managed their very different personalities well. He even hand fed our Pomeranian chihuahua when he refused to eat, and we came back to two happy pups. Highly recommend!”


“Ashley was a real blessing during our 10 day trip. I found her on Rover and initially was little hesitant to reach out for the lack of reviews and that’s why I’m writing this reviews so other people feel comfortable to hire her. Ashley took care of my babies like it was her own. She spend a lot of time with them and knew how to deal with a big dog that is not so easy on the walks and with all the arrangements that circle the life of an older dog with disabilities. She kept us posted with daily pictures and was supper accessible when needed. We will always hire Ashley from now on to take care of our babies while we are away!”



“Ozlem was absolutely wonderful. She made me feel so at ease while I was away on vacation and took such good care of Yager. She was always good about sending updates and photos of him as well. Will definitely hope to use her again on our next trip.”


About: Pet Care Experience I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been hands-on in raising them from playful puppies to loving seniors. My journey as a dog dad started in college when I raised my own puppy while balancing school and work. That experience taught me patience, time management, and how to truly care for a dog’s emotional and physical needs—even in a busy season of life. Whether it’s early potty training, late-night crate transitions, or just being a consistent, loving presence, I’ve been through it all. What Sets Me Apart What makes me different from other sitters is that I don’t just “watch” your dog—I care for them like family. I have personal experience training puppies and understand the extra attention and structure they need. I’m also comfortable supporting older dogs who may need a gentler touch or special routines. I’m detail-oriented, reliable, and genuinely love building trust with every pup I meet. Whether your dog needs active play or a calm, nurturing space, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because it’s already a big part of my life. As a dedicated dog dad, I’m used to early morning walks, meal schedules, playtime, and nighttime wind-downs. I work a flexible schedule, which gives me the freedom to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day—whether that’s for drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays. Weekends are wide open, and during the week, I make time to ensure every dog in my care feels prioritized, engaged, and comfortable. When caring for pets in their own home, my top priorities are keeping your dog’s routine consistent and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn your pup’s habits, feeding schedule, potty breaks, and favorite toys or activities so I can mirror your care as closely as possible. Whether it’s daily walks, play sessions, medication, or just extra cuddles, I make sure your dog gets personalized attention and care. I treat your home with respect; keeping things clean, secure, and organized while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your dog is in good hands and your home is being looked after with the same level of responsibility.
