“Bethany was wonderful with Cooper!! She is so sweet and attentive. She sent so many pictures and updates on how he was doing. I will definitely be asking her to watch Cooper again. She was a pleasure to work with!”

“Eylana is the best and always willing to accommodate for my senior dogs. I hesitate to let anyone know how good she really is because she might get too busy for us 😉 but I also want everyone to know she is a stellar pet sitter! Thank you always Lana!”


About: I've been around animals my entire life and grew up with dogs, cats and even fish! Over the years, I've lived with five dogs, two Golden Retrievers, a Labrador, a Husky and a Shiba Inu. I have hands on experience supporting three of them through their senior years, including mobility care, monitoring health changes and providing gentle and patient attention. Currently, I live with a Golden Retriever and a Shiba Inu and two rescue cats from a shelter. I understand the different personalities, energy levels and emotional needs of both dogs and cats. I have cared for my friends' beloved pets over the years and understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else's care. As a pet parent myself, I know how difficult it can be to find someone you truly feel comfortable with. That's why I treat every pet as f they were my own with love, patience and respect. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits between 09:00AM and 3:00PM on weekdays. Weekend, early morning, and evening visits may be available upon request, please feel free to message me to discuss availability. I carefully follow your dog's or cat's routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. Through messages and meet and greets, I take time to learn about your dog or cat's personality, needs, ad routine, while also respecting your preferences and are instructions as their owner. I provide photo updates after each visit and maintain clear communication so you always feel informed and at ease while you're away.
“Aytanna went above and beyond during their visits with Theia. In addition to the duties we discussed during booking, Aytanna also swept up litter and cat hair, sanitized my water fountain, and was super communicative about when they were coming by. I would highly recommend Aytanna to anyone (especially those with sensitive/shy animals) and will definitely be using them in the future.”

About: 15 years of daily walks, hikes and other outdoor adventures that have given me hands on experience and encounters with other pets and animals. I have cared for puppies and senior dogs and everything in between. I ensure your pet will get the exercise, care and fun they deserve. I’m currently working part time so have plenty of time for short of long walks in the mornings and evenings to walk and play with your dog. I live in an area with a small canyon with lots of brush and other animals like rodents and coyotes that can be dangerous for pets so I am experienced with all kinds of risks that pets can encounter and know what to expect in order to keep them safe!

About: Your Furry Best Friend's Perfect Match: Aspiring Dog Trainer & Loving Caretaker! Hello there! I'm a passionate dog enthusiast with a lifetime of canine companionship. With a lifelong passion for dogs and owning two senior chihuahuas, medium sized mixed breed myself, I truly understand the unique needs and personalities of our furry friends, no matter their size or background. I've honed my expertise as a Certified Dog Training Instructor during my rewarding 6-month stint at Petco. With over 180+ hours of training dogs of all temperaments, from the reactive and hyper to the nervous and shy, I'm well-prepared to handle any challenge that comes my way. (Please note that I only offer dog training services when I believe I can make a positive impact on your pup's journey. I use Positive Reinforcement methods with LIMA principles, No Corrections!) But that's not all—When it comes to dog walking and drop-in services, I believe in personalized care. From a simple pat on the head to a relaxing pupper massage, I tailor each interaction to suit your dog's preferences. Our walks can be quick and focused or leisurely with plenty of time for exploration and fun. Oh, and let's not forget about our feathered and shelled friends! I also have experience caring for small birds (parakeets, green cheek conures, and cockatiels!), aquatic turtles, insects (madagascar hissing roaches) and freshwater fish (From tropical fish to Goldfish) Let's make sure your beloved companion gets the top-notch care and training they deserve. Reach out to me for a tail-waggingly great time! 🐾 I will soon be leaving my full-time job to pursue pet care fully, which means I'll be available most of the week. Currently, I am available Tuesdays and Wednesdays. At my home, as soon as I am up I am tending to my dogs. I let them out to use the restroom and prepare their breakfasts as I make coffee. Usually, I spend my day either taking my dog somewhere new to explore, or work on enrichment games and mini training sessions. In the evening when it's cooler and the sun isn't as strong is when I am out walking my dogs, for my late disabled, senior pomeranian, this involved bringing her stroller when she needed her rest between walking.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was 6 years old. My family plus my extended family has always had dogs. I’ve baby sat dogs since I was in elementary school and I love to play and walk with dogs 🐶. Outside of the parents I will be your dog’s new best friend 😁 I’m a part-time ER nurse so I only work twice/week.

About: I enjoy long walks on the beach and making sure your best friend never gets lonely! I've dog-sat over 4-day weekends before, checked-in on pets in houses, and helped take care of dogs of all sizes during the day. I set timers for feeding, and routinely check on how your friend is doing over the course of the day. I'm an avid exerciser, and would love to both walk and run with your dog by my side! I prefer not to host most dogs at my house because my roommate is a bit fearful of larger pets, but I'm more than happy to take care of your friend either outside or at your place, just let me know where and when! (if you have a small dog, I may be able to host them at my house though!) I work from home and try to get up hourly to move around or stretch. Pet sitting keeps me motivated to move around and make sure your best friend gets their needs throughout the day! In terms of home care, this is something I prefer to discuss with you so that I can tailor the care to your pet’s needs! Broadly, it’s checking up on your friend to make sure they’re getting what they need throughout the day, whether that be food, water, exercise, or just overall attention

East Lake pet parents share their Rover experiences
she’s absolutely the sweetest + kindest dog sitter! anytime i had issues with my scheduling, she was very understanding + patient with me throughout our communication! also when it came to looking after our puppy, she was really gentle, sent me updates throughout the day + for the first time i felt like i could breathe + not worry! she’s made a huge difference in our day to day life when it comes to caring + looking after our puppy.

We were planning a much-needed family vacation, but had never left our cat in someone else's care before. Naturally, we were nervous—especially since our cat is a rescue with special needs. From the moment we reached out, Paulina was responsive and professional. She quickly put us at ease with her prompt communication and genuine interest in understanding our cat's unique personality and needs. Paulina turned out to be the perfect match. She earned our cat's trust—no small feat—and formed a real bond with him. Her regular updates through Rover cards, complete with detailed notes and photos, reassured us that he was in great hands. Paulina truly exceeded our expectations. Thanks to her, we were able to enjoy our vacation without worry, knowing our cat was happy and well cared for. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Paulina to our friends and family. She’s a wonderful sitter and we’re so grateful to have found her.

I would highly recommend Salma to any pet parent. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her while I was away, you could really tell she was so loving and sweet and loved my little guy. I definitely plan on booking her for drop ins and when I go on vacation 🐾🩷

Hannah was SO easy to communicate with and helped us care for our 3 month old puppy last minute. She cleaned up toys after play, offered potty breaks, gave puppy a snack, and put him to bed in his crate. Thank you Hannah for your kindness, patience and love for our baby! We hope to hire you again in the future.

Ashlee is beyond amazing. She will give you massive ( in a great way) updates and will problem solve any issues with you. She’s compassionate, kind, and has a six sense with animals. She is great with both dogs and cats and I’m sure with any other animal she would come in contact with. I cannot say enough great things about her. Book with her and your animals with me safe and happy and you can actually enjoy your vacation knowing she will treat your furry loves like her own. Doesn’t get better than her!
