“We were very pleased with Meghanne’s service! She stopped in on the schedule she agreed to and went out her way to try to make the cats comfortable with her. She sent some cute pictures and a thorough update after each visit. We would definitely use her again!”


“Quinn watched our senior cat and was so patient and relaxed with her. She provided great photos and summaries/explanations on every rover card each day so we knew that our cat was being well cared for while we were gone. She was also very responsive on any messages we sent to her and was very understanding and flexible. We will definitely request to have her watch our cat again if she is available!”


“Amanda was awesome & took good care of my bunny Scottie! She was very thoughtful in updating me and I could tell my Scottie had come to trust her over the week of her drop in visits.”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with puppies, energetic dogs, and elderly dogs. I love to spend my free time outside with my own dog, helping him get more exercise! I am eager to expand my dog experience and to bond with more animals. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have open availability to watch your dogs! I am able to be flexible to find times to walk or take your pup for a potty break! If you require a longer stay, I just need to know at least 2 weeks in advance to ensure my schedule will align. I currently have a Catahoula Leopord Dog, he requires a lot of attention and outdoor time. He has a hard time sharing his space, so I would have to board at the clients home. While visiting at the clients home, I will ensure the pup receives plenty of exercise, cuddles, and as many potty breaks it needs! I have my own transportation so it’s not a problem to commute.

“Chelsea has been very helpful with both our dogs and cats in our times of need. She has always been respectful of our space, I wouldn't know she stopped in if it weren't for messages and photos. It is clear that she loves animals and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to help out with their dogs and/or cats!”


“He did a fantastic job of taking care of our girls while we were gone. They were fed, watered, played with, and poops cleaned up. We came home to some very happy cats.”


About: have extensive experience in pet care, having had many pets over the years. My journey includes rescuing, fostering, and rehoming animals, which has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of animal behavior and care needs. Throughout my experience, I've worked alongside trainers, learning valuable skills to help animals thrive. I pride myself on my patience, compassion, and unwavering love for animals, which I believe are essential qualities for providing the best care possible. My hands-on experience with a variety of pets has given me the ability to assess individual needs and provide the right support to ensure their health, happiness, and well-being. While I work full-time in an office Monday through Friday, my love and commitment to animals are a central part of my daily routine. I make sure to devote my evenings and weekends to providing the care and attention that animals deserve. My special bond with animals allows me to connect with them on a deeper level, ensuring they receive the emotional and physical support they need. I understand how important pets are to their owners, and I treat each pet with the utmost care, creating a safe, loving environment where they can thrive. Whether it’s through walks, playtime, or simply being present, I appreciate the opportunity to spend my free time helping animals feel loved and secure. I have years of experience offering in-home pet care, which allows me to create a safe and comfortable environment for each pet in the comfort of their own home. As someone who lives downtown, I’m well-positioned to serve professionals who need reliable care for their pets while they’re away. Although I’m unable to care for animals in my own space, I pride myself on being a trusted, dependable option for those in need.

About: While growing up, there were always 6 dogs in the house ranging from chow chows to a small morkie. With my friends and family, I’m the first one on-call to watch their furry friends. I’ve taken care of a Great Pyrenees puppy all the way to a 15 yr old chihuahua. I’m open to overnight pet sitting or even a simple walk :) I typically work Tuesday through Saturday during the day. So I’d be available for morning walks, morning and afternoon potty breaks, or even overnight stays! Sundays and Mondays I have open availability! Since every dog is different, I try to gauge the typical day based on the information provided. If your pup is very social and loves to explore, I’ll bring them on a scenic walk. If you have couch potato, that’s no problem at all!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, including feeding, providing fresh water, and ensuring they get regular exercise through walks. I have looked after my friends dog on multiple occasions, taking responsibility for their daily needs and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m actively looking to walk dogs as I enjoy walking them during the evening time. I’m a teacher so during school year, lm available 3 pm and onwards I am only offering dog walking service since I live in an apartment, it will be very difficult to take care of the dog here.

About: I've never been without a pet--my family has had Labs and Goldens since before I was born, so I was raised taking care of and training dogs of all ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to find a trustworthy person to look after your pet, so please don't hesitate to ask me anything that will help you and your fur babies feel more comfortable :) I work part-time 3 days a week, so I have plenty of spare time to visit and walk your pets! My schedule is flexible, so if you ever need to make an adjustment, just let me know! I've taken care of pets with a wide range of personalities, so I understand that different pets need different types of care. You know what's best for your pet, so let me know how you do things and I will do my best to keep things consistent, familiar, and comfortable for your dogs!

“Kira did an absolutely amazing job with our two kittens and tripod cat. I felt very confident that she could handle anything they threw her way (especially because they aren't fully integrated yet and I wasn't sure how nice my older cat would be with the kittens!) Kira facilitated them safetly getting to know each other, provided them a clean safe environment, and loads of love. I can tell she loves cats by the second she greeted them. She filled out amazing thorough reports everyday that made me feel like i wasnt missing anything even though we were gone for a week. She was a wonderful cat sitter and I can't say enough good things about her!”


About: I’ve had pets my entire life! Being a dog owner a few times in the past has given me a lot of experience with providing the best care. It’s all about patience, being able to read their own needs, and knowing what toys and treats work best! I also have pets with special needs at home so I am skilled in administering medications orally, topically, and via subcutaneous injections. I’m clean, polite, professional, and respect boundaries of both my 2 and 4-legged clients. I have a pretty flexible schedule because I am self-employed. Generally I run my own business on weekends and every other Tuesday through the summer and fall. Weekdays and evenings are fairly wide open to spend time with furry friends. I am used to following a routine in my own home for my pets which includes timed feedings, regular medications, and cleaning of litter boxes. I also have someone in my home to take over my schedule if I were to take on a pet sitting job. In a client’s home I can easily adapt to their pet’s routine and maintain a calm presence so there is minimal stress.

About: I am confident that me and you little dogs will get along great . I hope that we can become friends fur life ! I like walks and cuddles and snuggles from dogs ! I currently work part time Tuesday through Thursday and can be available Thursday evening through the weekend and Monday evening . I can also do times upon availability I will walk dogs or let them in your enclosed yard depending upon your needs . I am flexible about how long the walks will be .

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 5. As a medical student, you can rest assured I am responsible and will take care of your pet like my own. I have experience with different breeds and animals with special needs. I am a medical student, so my main priority is medical school. I have free time in the afternoons and on weekends to walk pets or do drop-ins. I am also available to stay overnight at clients’ houses. I will treat your furry family member like my own! However, if you are looking for 24/7 pet care, I am unable to provide around the clock care. I will follow any and all instructions provided for how to care for your pet. I can administer medications if needed. I enjoy taking walks and would love to have a dog to keep me company!

“Deb is our go to sitter for our pup, and cat. A true animal lover, I can't recommend her enough. She sends picture updates for every visit, and is very responsive to questions. She'll even tell you when you've accidentally left your lights on!”



“Chelsea is amazing!!!!! My little Boston terrier is a very anxious pup and I am always a bit nervous leaving her with people. She quickly became besties with Chelsea and I feel so as ease. Chelsea is so responsive and always accommodates my last minute needs- I can't even express how much of a relief she has brought to our lives!! Thank you Chelsea!!!!”


About: Dogs bring a lot of happiness to my life and make me smile daily. Caring for my own dog, Jada, a sweet pit bull terrier, who stole my heart five years ago, has been one of the greatest joys of my life. She is not just a pet; she is family. I completed two six-week training courses with her and continue to apply the tips and positive reinforcement techniques I learned. I would be happy to incorporate those methods when caring for your beloved pet too. In addition to caring for my own dog, I have helped friends with dog walking, feeding, and just keeping their pets happy and comfortable when their owners are away. I understand that each dog has their own personality and routine, and I always take the time to get to know what makes them feel safe and loved. I believe all dogs—regardless of breed or background—deserve love, patience, and the attention that brings out the best in them (including exercise)! Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic pup (happy to run with them) or giving extra TLC to an older dog who needs a slower pace, I approach each pet with patience, care, and respect. As an ultra-runner, nature lover, and dog lover, I thoroughly look forward to meeting other dogs, going for walks, and providing them with the same affection, exercise, and attention I give to my own. I work remotely with flexible hours (that I create) allowing me to be available for walks and check-ins throughout the week and weekend as needed. When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I treat their space and pets with the same respect and attention I would give my own. My priority is to maintain the dog’s routine and comfort, so I always follow instructions closely. Cleanliness and communication are important to me. I keep the home tidy and send regular updates so the owner feels connected and reassured.

Miriam F.

“Miriam takes wonderful care of her cat, Butter. In general, she's a very organized and thoughtful individual, and her pet is no exception.

She prioritizes Butter's needs and always considers her in any plans made, whether it be needing to travel or just day-to-day.”
