“Tim has been walking our dogs for several weeks now. He is absolutely amazing. He cares, he shares when there are weird behaviors. He is reliable, punctual and communication. Has always been great.”

“I’m so grateful for Greta! I had to go away and was so nervous about leaving my Watson. But we were so blessed to find Greta! She’s responsible, loving, on time, creative, and goes above and beyond…and beyond! 100% recommend!”

About: I have a 3 year old beagle mix named Butter who gets along well with other dogs. I work from home and would love to watch your dog and have your dog keep my dog company if you are interested in boarding or day care. I am also happy to do drop-ins / walks as I love to get my steps in and keep your furry friends company! I work from home and am very flexible with my schedule! My dog and I typically go out for at least three walks a day. I have a small fenced in yard and single family home. The surrounding neighborhood is quiet and safe. I have a lot of experience caring for my friends’ pets as well as my own.

About: I've taken care of my friends' dogs for years and adopted my own puppy 3 years ago! I've learned a lot about dog training the past few years, including loose leash walking, clicker training, working on reactivity, recall training, and getting through the puppy and teenage phase! I am familiar with positive reinforcement training and balanced training and can help keep up any training you have been working on with your dog while I take care of them! I'm familiar with various collars - regular, prong, slip, gentle leaders, and harnesses. I'm currently taking a work hiatus from being a pharmacist! So I have flexible scheduling during the day & evenings to help take care of your pup! I'm typically at the ceramics studio on Fridays, but if you let me know 2 weeks in advance of the Friday you need me, I can make arrangements. I am here to help your pets feel as safe and happy as they can while you're away. Just let me know their normal routine (no matter how detailed) and I'm happy to keep it the same for them! I can help administer medications if needed, and can put together multi-step meals with toppers as well!

“Summer was amazing! Summer, walked my dog for an hour each day over the course of a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention provided. Summer was communicative, and treated my dog with genuine kindness. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos—great peace of mind while I was on vacation. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”

About: I specialize in cat drop in visits and understand that pets thrive on routine, calm handling, and trusted care in their own home. My approach is observant, patient, and detail-oriented, especially for shy, senior, or medically managed pets! During each visit, I make sure your pet is comfortable, their space stays clean, and their normal routine is respected. I’m attentive to subtle behavior changes, potty/litter box habits, appetite, and overall demeanor, and I’ll let you know right away if something seems off. I provide thorough rover updates with photos, notes on eating, litter box use, and mood, so you can travel with confidence knowing your pet is well cared for. I’m happy to support: -single or multi-pet households -timed feedings and special instructions -oral medication and supplements -senior or shy pets who need a gentle presence If you’re looking for a reliable, low-stress, pet-savvy-sitter, I’d love to set up a meet & greet! About me: Attentive sitter providing detailed updates, medication support, and calm care for anxious pets! Schedule Flexibly With Me! I work from home and am able to be mobile for my job. Ideally, I’m popping in to your home to provide check in services, play, and attend to any other needs (food, water refresh, walking). Depending on extent of need I may be able to do weekends as well. I do have a full time remote job as well. I’m doing this in part because I enjoy caring for animals, and also to help cover some recent vet costs! Your Pet’s Safety Is My Priority! I focus on pet safety and comfort above all else. I am able to tailor my service according to the needs of you and your pet. Your Privacy: I understand the need for privacy and care when it comes to your home. I have no issue with remaining in designated areas or with cameras around common spaces. I will accommodate your comfort.

“Cie has been so gracious and helpful with my schedule and changes due to medical issues. Thank you for your understanding and always being so loving with Lucy!!”

About: I’ve been around and cared for all kinds of dogs throughout my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and giving them plenty of time to explore and enjoy their surroundings without feeling rushed. I’m very patient and like to get a feel for each dog’s personality and energy level. If they’re excited, playful, and active, I’m happy to match their energy and keep them engaged. If they’re more relaxed or shy, I’m just as happy to give them the space, patience, and comfort they need. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and has a great time while they’re with me! I’m currently a Physical Therapy student, and pet care will be my part-time job alongside school. I don’t work anywhere else, so I’m able to dedicate my free time to caring for your pets! As a pet lover, I thought this would be a great way to do something I enjoy while also helping support my education. In my PT program I only have one 2-hr class a day so I have plenty of free time around that. I’m happy to use my free time for dog walks, drop-ins, playtime, and making sure your pets get plenty of attention and care! 🐾 I’m happy to welcome pets into my home! There is a fenced yard for outdoor play time and spacious indoor space as well. I have one dog and one cat of my own, both are very friendly and used to being around other animals. My dog especially loves having a new friend to play with! I also understand that not every pet is as social or outgoing. If your dog is more shy, nervous, or simply prefers their own space, my home has plenty of room to keep pets in separate areas when needed so they can feel comfortable and adjust at their own pace. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, relaxed, and at home during their stay.

“GiGi did an excellent job walking my dog while we were gone for the day. She was reliable and on schedule. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible dog walker!”

“Pauline responded to my dog walking inquiry and to all messages quickly. She proactively offered to reach out to Rover when my initial care instructions weren’t visible on my dog’s profile. She came on time, walked my dog for a full 30 minutes, gave her some treats, wiped the paws as requested, and locked the door. Her description of the walk was thorough. The only improvement would have been to leave on one of the down stair lights after leaving as requested in the care instructions.”

About: I grew up in a house of Akitas and a Shih Tzu — four pounds of opinion and eighty pounds of stubborn under one roof. I’m also the friend people hand the leash to: the Frenchie who overheats, the Corgi with short legs and long ambitions, the Husky and the Aussie who need a walk that actually burns something. Twenty years around dogs has taught me the ones people call “difficult” are usually just misunderstood. I know how to read the buildup before a reaction and create space instead of yanking. I’m comfortable with medication schedules too — that’s just part of a routine. Your dog gets someone who’s calm when things get loud, and you get honest updates about how it actually went. tl;dr Paws what you’re doing —and hire me :) Dogs are already part of my daily routine, so adding yours doesn’t mean rearranging anything. I work full-time but my schedule is flexible, which puts me right where most owners need someone — early mornings before the day starts, and midday, when your dog has been alone for hours and is doing that thing by the door. Those are my hours, they’re consistent, and I’m not squeezing you into a gap and hoping it holds. Book me for a regular slot and it becomes part of the rhythm for both of us. Same time, same reliability, every week. I work in your home only, and I leave it exactly as I found it. Walks follow the routine you’ve already set — your gear, your rules, your route, and I want to hear about triggers up front if your dog is reactive. Drop-ins mean potty, fresh water, food or meds on schedule, and real time on the floor with them. Every visit ends with locks checked and a message telling you honestly how it went, photo included.

“Kk was great! We have a little mix jack Russel and Kk walked him during the weekend. She was on time for the walks and spent a quality time with my dog. She fed him changed his water every time and took him for a walk around 20-25 min every time and played with him at home. I’ll definitely recommend her!”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is that I combine responsibility with genuine attentiveness to each dog’s individual personality and needs. I don’t just “watch” dogs — I actively engage with them to make sure they feel safe, stimulated, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. With puppies, I pay great attention to how they feel and I’m very patient at caring for them. With senior dogs, I’m patient and attentive to mobility needs, medication schedules, slower walking pace, and comfort routines. I pay close attention to subtle behavior changes that may indicate discomfort. I’m also detail-oriented when it comes to feeding instructions, allergies, and household rules. Clean water, safe environments, and secure walks are always my priority. I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and respect for their unique temperament. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently home most of the time. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, regular walks, and plenty of interaction throughout the day instead of leaving dogs alone for long periods. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can adapt to each dog’s needs — whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, feeding at specific times, or sticking closely to an established routine. Being home also allows me to monitor behavior closely and respond quickly if anything seems off. Because pet care would be a dedicated part of my day, I’m able to give dogs my full attention, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for rather than just accommodated. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment. I remove potential hazards, keep doors and gates secured, and ensure all food and small objects are out of reach. Dogs have a comfortable resting area, constant access to fresh water, and structured playtime. I supervise interactions at all times and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, medication, walking routes, house rules, and preferred routines. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes to ensure security. I’m attentive to behavior changes and will immediately communicate any concerns. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured. I understand that trust is everything when someone leaves their pet in another person’s care. I treat every home respectfully and every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and responsibility.

About: Certified dog trainer with a licensed and insured pet care business! I’m also a proud dog mom and genuinely love working with dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs, and I provide personalized care based on what works best for each dog. As a trainer, I can incorporate basic obedience, leash manners, and positive reinforcement into walks and everyday interactions when appropriate. I enjoy helping dogs build confidence, practice good habits, and get the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or training, my goal is to provide reliable, attentive care while making sure your dog feels happy, comfortable, and safe. I’m a full-time pet care provider, so pet care is my primary focus and I have a flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and training, and I’m especially happy to accommodate recurring weekly walks and consistent routines. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide care that is comfortable and consistent for them. For walks and training, I use secure leashes and equipment appropriate for each dog and pay close attention to their surroundings and behavior. For drop-in visits, I follow your instructions carefully and make sure your dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout my visit. As a certified dog trainer, I’m experienced in understanding canine body language and creating a positive, calm experience for every dog in my care.

“Mengmeng read dog walking/feeding instructions carefully and paid attention to details. She showed up on time every time. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and understand their different personalities, walking habits, and needs. I always prioritize their safety and comfort by bringing water on walks, choosing shaded routes or grassy areas when it’s hot to protect their paws, and letting them stop to sniff and explore—because walks should be enjoyable, not just exercise! You can count on me to treat your dog with the same care, patience, and attention I’d give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, reliable walks throughout the week. I make sure every dog gets the exercise, attention, and pace that’s right for them while keeping their safety and comfort a priority. I tailor each walk to the individual dog, paying attention to their energy level, personality, and comfort. I’m patient and attentive throughout the walk, allowing them time to explore and enjoy themselves while keeping them safe and under control.

“Elena was able to quickly respond to our request to walk our dog and help walk our dog the next day. She provided great communication and professionalism. We will definitely use her again!”

About: I have been a dog lover and dog owner my whole life. I have always had dogs and I currently have a Puggle named Sheldon Cooper. He loves dogs too and we are always at the dog park. I stay at home and love an excuse to get out and enjoy the fresh air. Your dog will be well loved and cared for with me. I love any excuse I can get to get out and enjoy the beautiful fresh air.

“We had a great experience with Holly this week! Holly was very punctual and courteous, and our dog Juju was excited to see her! I appreciated her updating me during Juju’s walks.”
