I highly recommend Ciara. A very caring and lovely young lady. She sent me pictures and videos while I was away on holiday. Due to a flight delay I was late picking up my fur babies and she said no problem. She is patient and kind. We finally arrived at her home late at night. Ciara greeted us with a smile and packed up our fur babies bags. Kobi, Sophie and Ruby were happy and tired when they came home. I definitely will request Ciara again. 10 star rating.

We loved Tre! From the minute he pulled into the driveway, we felt comfortable that he would be a great fit to care for our enthusiastic pittie mix. He asked pertinent questions and took detailed notes during the meet and greet. Our dog responded so favorably to him and the became fast friends. We highly recommend him and will definitely be working together in the future.

We’ve used Reid in the past and would most definitely call him again for our future pet sitting needs. Reid is very attentive to the animals and I have no doubt that they were well cared for and loved while we were away on vacation. I highly recommend Reid.

About: Although my family has never owned a dog, I have always loved taking care of my aunts, neighbors, and family friends dogs. I always make sure to pay attention to detail when watching a dog and meet each dogs needs whether that be a walk, playing with a toy, belly rubs, or even just relaxing. As a part-time graduate student at USM, I will have time during the day for a dog walk, or to check-in on your pup! I will be available on most weekends for house and dog sitting. I am available to come to your dog and stay with him/her so they do not have to move out of their comfortable environment and stay at a new space with new people.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs and cats, and now having two rescue dogs of my own, I just can't imagine life without them. I haven't used Rover before, but I've spent years watching friends' dogs and cats whenever they needed someone they could trust. I've raised puppies, cared for kittens, and even handled medications when needed, so I'm no stranger to what animals need to feel safe and loved. I come to your home so your babies can stay in their own space, in their own routine. Every animal is different and I take the time to get to know them. Big or small, they all get the same gentle, attentive care. I just genuinely love animals, and that's something you'll see the moment I meet your pet. I'm always happy to set up a meet-up before booking so we can connect, your pet can get comfortable with me, and we can make sure it feels like the right fit for everyone I recently graduated from Arcadia University with my Master's in Physician Assistant Studies. While I study for my boards and prepare to move back home to Washington, I have time on my hands and want to spend it doing something I truly enjoy. Right now my days are completely open, which means your dog gets my full attention. No rushing off, no squeezing them in between a busy schedule. I'm there as long as they need me. As the mom of two very needy rescue dogs, I completely understand wanting your babies to have someone around as much as possible, and right now, I'm in a position to give exactly that! Since I will be in your home, my first priority is to respect whatever routine and rules you have in place for your pet. I am happy to provide as much or as little entertainment, snuggles, or space as your fur baby needs. When it comes to walks, I'm no stranger to dogs that pull on the leash or get reactive around other dogs. I've handled strong, reactive animals before and I feel confident and calm managing them.

About: With over six and a half years of hands-on pet care, I bring a rare blend of experience, attentiveness, and heart. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior pets needing gentle, attentive care. What truly sets me apart is my ability to read and respond to animals’ unique personalities. I create a calm, consistent environment where pets feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s administering medication, offering leash training for puppies, or providing low-stress companionship for older pets, I bring patience and skill to every interaction. I also have experience caring for a diverse range of animals beyond just dogs and cats. From chickens and birds to hamsters and other small pets, I understand that every species has its own rhythm, needs, and comfort cues. I’m confident and compassionate with unique, exotic, or less-common animals, always prioritizing their safety, emotional well-being, and daily routines. Pet care is a built-in part of my weekly life. I’m highly flexible and genuinely enjoy working around each pet’s needs and schedule. Whether it’s early mornings, midday visits, evenings, or even late nights, I’m available and committed to making your pet’s care seamless and stress-free. I’m also happy to accommodate weekend bookings and unique timing requests whenever possible—just let me know what works best for you and your pet, and I’ll do my best to make it happen. Reliability, consistency, and clear communication are at the heart of everything I do. In clients’ homes, I prioritize maintaining their pet’s normal routine and environment. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, walking routes, medication routines, and preferred playtime activities—so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I also make sure the space stays tidy and respected while I’m there. If I’m hosting pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe, and welcoming space. I separate animals as needed, keep food and water fresh and clean, and ensure they have access to cozy rest areas and supervised play. I never leave pets unattended, and I’m mindful of their comfort, especially in a new setting. In both cases, I focus on creating a low-stress, high-trust atmosphere, and I keep pet parents updated with messages, photos, and honest communication throughout the stay.

Madison did an excellent job taking care of our 12 year old St.Bernard/Staffy mix, Charm! Madison was very capable, patient, kind and moved at Charm’s pace, making Charm very comfortable with her. Madison provided great communication during her service so we were worry-free during our trip! Will rebook with Madison in the future! 😊

About: I’ve have always had a dog & cats since I was a child. I love all pet cuddles! And meeting new friends. I have one dog and two cats at the moment. I've dog sat for my friends and coworkers when they need someone to be with their babies for nights away or random drop ins to check on them. I'm looking for a fun way to make extra money and i couldn't think of anything better then spending time with dogs & cats while doing that. I work four days a week but it’s flexible! I’m available everyday after 2pm and if I have a good enough heads up I’m available 24/7 I can give you references of people I have house/pet sat for in the past. I’m comfortable crating your pet if needed. I’m easily available on my cell phone when I am pet sitting. And I can send updates whenever you would like.

About: From caring for 10 senior dogs at a rescue, to bathing dogs that got sprayed by skunks, to training and taking dogs on their own outings to parks and nature hikes, you name it I’ve done it! Even flying with dogs! ✈️ I have experience with all breeds, ages, and like to keep pet parents informed with notes & pics. Growing up in farm country taught me to love and care for all animals, but dogs and cats are by far my favorite. I also have experience in administering medications to our furry friends. I left my career of being a nanny in CA to move to the east coast to marry my husband. That was 2019, and I’ve been boarding/caring for animals since then. I’m currently a stay-at-home wifey so the dogs get 100 percent of my attention when they are with us. We live in a 3 story townhouse with a small unfenced yard in front of our home, to a large grassy area on the side of our home, to a giant green grass patch directly behind us just out our back door. The neighborhood is VERY dog-friendly with lots of sidewalks and comes complete with a dog park in walking distance. Our home is dog-friendly meaning dogs are allowed on all furniture and we even have doggie steps for little pooches to get up on our bed if they wish. We also have a 2mile + walking path near us. So we have plenty of activity options. We even have Pluto cartoons for your pet to watch! Pets get 100 percent of my attention when they stay with us. Their comfort and safety is my priority as I do pet care full-time. Our home has no place that’s off limits to your pets. If they want to snuggle on our bed or relax on our couch or even be in our guest room - they are more than welcome wherever they are most comfortable. We even have a massive bean bag most animals love thinking it’s a giant dog bed 😂.

Terry was absolutely incredible and took the best care of our 2 kitties when we went out of town! Daily pictures and videos, so many updates and great communication! I would give her even more stars if I could. We have never felt safer leaving our babies in another's hands, and we could not recommend her enough. She truly goes above and beyond. :)

Carly was great. Stayed an overnight with our four dogs and was amazing. She came to the house twice to do a meet and greet. One of ours has an issue getting to know people. Carly was super patient with him and by the end of the first visit he was in love with her. Highly recommend her!

About: I had 2 dogs, a shibu-chi mix and shitzu females that act like adorable little sisters. My sister also owns 2 dogs, a little black poodle dog and pitbull-terrier mix, both of whom I love so very much! I’ve had to petsit for her many years, so I am familiar working with big dogs. In the Philippines, I had a grey puppy named Jamie, that was a very rare and intelligent breed! By the time I had to fly back to the states, he was potty-trained and knew basic commands(sit, stay, paw, etc.) I hope to own my own big dog someday! I make room for pet-sitting at the end of the week, usually Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. I would make the schedule fit into my calendar that works for the owner and make it apart of my daily routine. In the clients home, I’m only going to do what is required and requested for the petsitting time period. If there are any additional notes that I need to know, particularly for the pets needs then I will need to know before I arrive at the location. I implement a set schedule to ensure I can meet the requirements of all of my clients accordingly and efficiently, so that I’m sure I’m prepared for anything in the owners absence.

Heidi was great with Kona! We asked her to stay at our house for 3 nights with our lab who has some anxiety issues when left alone. She sent us lots of pictures, was great at communicating throughout the visit, was extremely friendly and left our house just like we left it! Kona seemed super happy and relaxed when we got back which is always a great sign. ☺️ We would definitely recommend Heidi to any family and friends!

We were very pleased having Chris here at our home to watch our Corgi Mickey. Mickey wasn’t feeling his best and Chris kept us well informed and sent photos of Mickey to reassure us that all was well. We plan to have her come again the next time we need to go out for a long period of time. Chris was awesome!
