Uğur was such a good sitter for my 50 lb lab - he took her for long walks and refreshed the water after. Much appreciate the help and would definitely recommend. Thanks!

Stephen is the BEST!! On extremely short notice he came to do a drop-in with my pup. He was communicative, kind, respectful of the home, and most importantly he was Oakley’s new best friend! We appreciate you, Stephen!

It’s much easier to leave my dog and cat when I know Jamie will be caring for them. His reports are always detailed and reassuring. Our pets are not easy, our dog has a lot of energy, and our cat requires twice daily medication. But for Jamie it’s no problem. When I come home I’m always greeted with calm and happy pets.

About: My experience comes from caring for and training peers, family and my own dogs and puppies. I focus on positive routines, patience and giving each pet attentive, loving care! I work part-time and am currently a student, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide pets with the time, attention, and care they deserve. I'm available Mondays, Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 6:30 AM to 4:30 PM. I'm always happy to communicate, plan, and accommodate your pet's unique routine and needs to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide regular exercise, mental stimulation, and pay close attention to body language to understand each pet’s needs. I focus on creating a calm, positive environment where pets feel secure, respected, and loved!

Sarah was great with Wallace! He’s a little skittish (or a lot - he hid under my couch) around new people but she worked with him and definitely earned his trust. Really appreciated the in depth visit descriptions that definitely helped put my mind at ease.

About: Since I was a little girl, I’ve known I was meant to work with animals. It’s more than a passion—it’s my purpose. Pets have always brought me peace, joy, and fulfillment, whether they were mine or someone else’s. Over the years, I’ve raised everything from Great Danes to Pit-Husky mixes. I currently care for my special-needs English Mastiff, Kayser, and have supported senior and rescue dogs—each requiring patience, trust, and personalized care. Motivated by my commitment to animal well-being, I returned to school to pursue my dog training certification. I also hold certifications in animal welfare, pet CPR, and first aid. My approach is rooted in positive reinforcement and a strong belief in creating an informed, compassionate pet guardian community. My mission is to be a bridge between animals and their guardians—prioritizing not just obedience, but behavioral health, emotional enrichment, and the deeper bond that comes from truly understanding and nurturing the whole animal. Pet care is a part of my everyday routine, so I’ve learned to build my schedule around it. I’m usually up early to handle morning feedings, walks, and check-ins, which leaves me available mid-morning through early afternoon for appointments, training sessions, or visits. I also keep some flexibility in the evenings and weekends for clients who need extra support or who have specific routines for their pets. Because animals are part of my daily life, fitting in care—whether mine or someone else’s—comes naturally. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and attention I’d want in my own. I stick closely to the routines the pet is familiar with—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or playtime—because consistency helps them feel secure. I take my time to build trust with each animal, using gentle handling and positive reinforcement. I also pay close attention to their behavior and energy, so I can catch any signs of stress or discomfort early. My goal is always to keep pets calm, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while giving families peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring, capable hands.

About: I’m a lifelong dog person — there’s never been a time in my life without one! These days, my chocolate lab is enjoying his well-earned retirement (walks are officially off his agenda), which means I have all this love and energy to give. I would absolutely love to be your dog’s favorite part of the day! I currently work full time, as a hybrid employee so I’m working for home at least two days for home with a flexible schedule. That gives me plenty of time to walk your dog or check in on them. For drop in visits and dog walking, I would follow your request for your dogs needs. At this time, I am not doing overnight stays

If there’d been a 10-star rating option for this sitter, I’d have selected it expeditiously! While I was away on a 10 day vacation halfway across the world, Michelle went beyond Rover expectations—she exceeded in every category, from feeding to cuddling to playing. She even cleaned and tidied up an unexpected accident my cat had left during her last visit. I’m super impressed and happily pleased with Michelle’s service. Would I ever rebook with her?. . .Is the sky blue? Yes 👏🏾 Yes 👏🏾 YES 🙌🏾

I have a hybrid work schedule so I am available mainly in the evenings or on the weekends. I would love to help your pet get the care they need! I care for each and every pet like they are my own. First and foremost I will prioritize their safety, and your wishes as the pet parent!

About: With 15 years of dedicated pet care experience, I’ve had the joy of looking after a wide variety of dogs—from tiny Yorkshire Terriers to strong Pit Bulls and gentle Great Danes. I’m passionate about providing personalized, loving attention to each furry friend, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I know more than anyone that these are not merely pets, but family and friends. You can trust me to treat your pets like family! Hello, I currently work during the day as an office manager at a local advertising agency. My schedule is hybrid - I work form home Mondays and Fridays, so I am very flexible. I currently live in a cozy one bedroom apartment in the McKinley Heights negihborhood. There is both a front and backyard in my building but I also often walk to Lafayette Square, which is nearby.

About: I have been taking care of pets from 5 years old. My dog, Winnie, is now 16 years old and still kickin’! He lives in Tennessee with my parents. I have grown up taking care of dogs and have a lot of experience with different breeds. I adopted my sweet kitty, Noodle, when he was 11. He’s now around 19 years old and has accidents on occasion, so I am used to messes with senior and young pets. I am currently working part time, but I am available during the morning and late afternoon. My weekends are mostly free. I keep my phone around at all times, so I am pretty flexible: I will always make sure your pet has clean water and the recommended amount of food. I will clean up any accidents if they occur and notify you of any abnormal behavior. You will also receive plenty of pet photos!

Thank you so much for all the photos and videos each day its such a relief to see them so happy.

Taylor went above and beyond watching my cat. She made sure to play with her and could tell she cleaned up after since my feline requires thawed food. She remembered to do a few small tasks I mentioned only during the initial visit and was shocked by her great memory. Not to mention the cutest pictures. She even went back to check on my girl to comfort her during fireworks voluntarily! Glad I found her and will be recommending to anyone who needs a sitter.

Gabbie is great! My pup is pretty shy and going through some health concerns. Gabbie was attentive to what my dog needs, has been consistently on-time and has built up trust with her in the span of a week. Sadie seems really excited when Gabbie comes by and seems to enjoy their mid-day play sessions!

It was our 1st time having a person to check in on our cat Maggie and it just went so well! Brooklyn took good care of her as if she were her own. She spent time playing with her and showing her kindness. Maggie soaked it up and returned the love by rolling on the floor wanting her tummy patted. We will definitely be requesting Brooklyn in our future trips away. Thank you much Brooklyn!!

This is my second time booking cat sitting with Jenn, this time was a little more last minute and she was luckily available and happy to jump in and take care of my cat. Olive was a little more standoff-ish this time around but, I'd just been gone for a week for work so I think she was stressed. Nevertheless I can tell from the photos she was happy and a little flirty with Jenn and was happy for the company (and the food). I would definitely recommend Jenn - she is great with photos and videos of my beloved little friend when I'm away.
