“Alyssa is an amazing caregiver. We can have a relaxing time away knowing our home and pets are in great hands. She is an excellent communicator and leaves details reports. We have been leaving our pets with Alyssa for 3 years now and will continue to use her every time we go away.”
“Absolutely Fantastic!!!! I can’t say enough about the professionalism, sincerity, and care this father daughter team gave out Jack. He is older and always has issues (separation anxiety). He was so happy and energetic when we got home. Usually takes days for him to recover! Highly Recommend!!! Will be a return customer next time we need a sitter for our buddy.”
“A spectacular sitter! I’ve been meaning to leave a review for a while, but life is life. I’ve become a sitter myself since using Madison for her services and I realize the importance of leaving a review so here it is. As stated already, Madison is a spectacular sitter who is genuine in her care for your pets. She took care of our five cats while we were on holiday twice. She also took care of our snake and leopard gecko which was appreciated since they didn’t appear on my profile (very unsure if I should have put them in somehow, but I think Rover frowns upon certain animals being officially cared for if not a cat/dog). When our gecko’s light fixture went out, she communicated the issue promptly and took initiative to get us a new bulb and then a new dome when that didn’t fix our issue. We came home to a happy gecko so all is well that ends well. Consider Madison for your next holiday for sure. She should consider charging more for her services too :-)”
About: I’m very passionate about animals and their well-being, and can ensure that they are getting the proper care they need. Currently, I work in an animal shelter and provide care to many animals on a daily basis. I have acquired many skills while working at the shelter, such as properly giving medications, providing adequate enrichment, and accurately reading body language. I also foster kittens that require special attention frequently. This includes, but is not limited to bottle feeding, monitoring and cleaning wounds, and monitoring their weight and adapting their diet as needed so they can be strong and healthy. I work a full-time, 8-5 job, and I can absolutely care for your pets outside of these hours. Whether it’s house sitting while you are away, drop in visits before and after work, or a dog walk to exercise your pup, I am able to provide that for you. I typically care for animals at your place of residence. Just let me know the instructions for your pet(s) and I will follow through completely to meet your pet’s needs.
“Raquel did a great job. I really appreciate her putting our Chewey order away too. (Always seems to come when I am gone.) She checked w/ me when she had questions and gained the trust of our timid kitty.”
About: I have always grew up around dogs in my home and friends, family home. My grandma used to foster dogs and she taught me a lot I know about them including but not limited to administering shots and medications. I currently work full-time. However, the dog door and fenced in yard allows your dog to be out and roam freely while I am away. I am also okay to crate your dog if that is what you would prefer. When I get home it's usually clean, play, and dinner time. As the night goes on its movies and cuddles. I have a fenced in yard and a doggy door to let your dog(s) run around outside and play during the day freely as wanted. I love to take walks in the nice weather with the dogs and play fetch out in the yard. I have an indoor camera and outdoors cameras to keep eyes when I'm not home.
“Super kind and very efficient care taker. Even got our skittish cat to come out of hiding. Will definitely use services again from Josie and highly recommend!”
“"Kristin was absolutely wonderful with our feline family members! We wholeheartedly recommend her for your kitties. She was consistently punctual for feedings and provided engaging, quality playtime. We especially appreciated the daily updates with photos and feedback – her attention to detail truly made all the difference!"”
“Seriously so sweet and patient with me as I have never hired a pet sitter before! Very professional and sent me pictures of my baby while she was there. :) Would absolutely hire again!”
“Valeria did great letting my dogs out during the week. She was especially patient with my anxious dog that is scared of strangers. She was very communicative and I would not hesitate to hire her again.”
About: I’ve cared for and personally trained a wide range of animals—from tiny 10-lb companions to 100+-lb big loves. Walking, running, feeding, and cleanup aren’t chores to me—they’re what I genuinely enjoy doing in my free time. Animals are my passion, always have been and always will be. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are my first priority—always. I work weekdays from 8am–5pm and happily dedicate my free time to caring for your pets. Providing care before work, after work, and on weekends. I care for your home as if it were mine, always leaving it cleaner, while making sure your pets feel safe, loved, happy, and truly well cared for.
About: I managed a pet store for 7 years. Handling dogs helping a groomer. I checked them in for appointments and checked them out for pick ups. Depends on what is needed. I work part time. I also work around my bookings. I’m very flexible. When I dog sit I make it all about the dog and treat them as if they are children. I prefer your home. I care for them by whatever directions or schedule you prefer if there on a routine or not. I love your dogs as if they were mine.
“Victoria was very attentive to all of Peaches’ needs, even though Peaches never showed her mouthy, fuzzy face. My home was very respected and was as if we hadn’t been gone. Victoria went above and beyond by even bringing in our mail and packages. The comfort level and communication was stellar.”
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a child. I am new to the area and would love to have some canine warmth in my life. Currently missing my dogs who live with my parents. One is a pure bred border terrier, Sadie, and the other is a mutt from the pound, Charlie. I moved to the area for graduate school. I have classes throughout the week and would be able to care for pets before and after classes. I have another part-time gig as a soccer trainer, which doesn't take up more than 2-3 hours a day. I live in an apartment with a dog park. There are also trails around my complex. I do not have anything like crates or cages in my unit for dogs.
About: I have had multiple dogs of all sizes from as far back as I can remember! Since I was 10, I was in charge of the coon dog puppies we had every spring and learned the ins and outs of dog care. I currently have a fox red lab and Goldador who are my whole world! I have taken care of dogs from puppies to seniors and know how to administer oral medication, and willing to learn if anything else needs done! I am a teacher so on breaks I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies! During the school year, I am available on weeknights and any time on the weekends. I have a half fenced in yard but I have dog tie cables and leashes to keep your fur baby safe. I will also keep an eye on them the entire time we are outside. I have my own friendly dogs to keep yours plenty of company! I also have plenty of toys, blankets, and extra crates for any dogs in my care. We are also very pet friendly so they will be treated as our own and get free reign of the “dog couch” 😊
About: I love pet! and I have been spending my life with them since I was young. I have dogs as my pet now and I used to pet cats before, so I don't mind taking care of cats :) I've been with puppies, aging dogs, and disabled dogs. I like teaching some tricks for them! My dogs know how to roll, wait, speak, lay down, and give a hand :D I love to see them well-groomed! so If you want me to make them smell good, I would love to take a bath for them. If your dogs are energetic, I don't mind taking them to do activities, such as running. If your dogs stay overnight with me, I would use them as my bear lol
