“Lillian did a great job for my cat. She uploaded a lot of videos while she was taking care of the cat. While my cat is shy and usually afraid of new people, he quickly got along with Lillian.”

About: I'm a life long cat lover who never seems to have enough space for the menagerie of cats that I would love to own. Pet-sitting is the next best thing! I have raised & loved several cats through their entire lives as newborns into their maturity. I am currently a Cat Mom to two males in a May/December relationship (3yr old/9 yr old). They could not be more opposite or more joyful to live with. I am flexible alongside my part-time job. Acting and producing in the world of community theatre keeps me busy, but caring for pets & housesitting keeps me happy and grounded. I will always be fair & honest about my time & availability. As an actor I am gifted in matching energy: is your pet skittish or nervous? Are they older or grumpy & listless? Well, I can be good company either way. I’ve cared for and given medication to senior dogs & cats that need more attention. I’m observant, caring & intuitive to their needs. While caretaking in your home, I will be dependable, respectful & trustworthy. *Please note - specialty senior care is at PUPPY rate.

“Enis was great with Teddy! This was our first time using Rover and we were very satisfied with the promptness and care Teddy received. Enis was booked somewhat last minute and was very accommodating, came to meet Teddy ahead of time and was able to stop by twice when we were out for the day. We received Rover cards and photos right after each visit which was so nice. Would gladly book Enis again.”

About: Hi! My name is Debora and I am Pom mom & insured & First Aid/CPR certified pet sitter. I have a 4 year old Pom which leads me to be a dog lover and dedicated pet caregiver. I work in higher education teaching and advising students. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs, and I make sure to give each pup patience, attention, and lots of love. Whether it’s a fun walk, playtime, boarding or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog like family. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to send updates and photos so you feel confident that your pup is safe and happy while you’re away. My goal is simple: providing paw-sitivity for your pups! 🐾———————————————————————— Hola! Me llamo Debora y soy mamá de un perrito Pomerania. Tengo un Pom de 4 años, lo que me ha convertido en una amante de los perros y en una cuidadora de mascotas dedicada. Trabajo en educación superior enseñando y orientando a estudiantes. Entiendo que cada perro tiene su propia personalidad, nivel de energía y necesidades, y me aseguro de brindar a cada uno paciencia, atención y mucho amor. Ya sea un paseo divertido, tiempo de juego, hospedaje o simplemente acompañarlos, trato a cada perro como si fuera de mi familia. I currently work full time and have time for morning or evening walks during the week. I am available full time Friday evening-Sunday as needed. In my home, your dog will feel like part of the family. I provide a safe, comfortable space, follow feeding and exercise routines, and spend time playing, cuddling, and observing behavior. I also send regular updates with photos so you can see your pet is happy and loved. In your home, I follow your dog’s daily routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and potty breaks. I give attention and reassurance while keeping you updated with messages and photos. I’m experienced with puppies and small breeds, and I adjust care to each pet’s needs to keep them happy and calm.

“Best pet service!! I’m truly happy I found Diane and was able to have her taken care of my two kitties while I was gone for vacation. She is very patient and caring for my little ones and has given me the comfort of knowing they were in good hands while I was away! Will totally rebook her on for next getaway ☺️”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years through family and friends, and I’m always the person they trust to watch their pets. I genuinely love animals, and dogs tend to feel comfortable with me very quickly. I have experience with small and medium-sized dogs, and I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m especially patient with more anxious or sensitive dogs. I have an anxious dog of my own, which has taught me how to read body language, build trust, and create a calm, safe environment. I’m very attentive and detail-oriented, so I always follow care instructions closely, whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific routines. I can also help reinforce basic training like leash manners and structure during walks. My goal is to make every dog feel cared for, understood, and happy while giving owners complete peace of mind. I treat every dog like my own and always keep communication open and consistent. I’m available Thursday through Sunday, with the most flexibility on weekends. On Thursdays and Fridays, I work part-time and am home by early afternoon, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and evening care. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication above everything. I follow each pet’s routine closely and take the time to understand their individual needs, behaviors, and comfort levels. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as a very friendly Shihpoo who is used to being around other dogs. I always supervise interactions and make sure every dog feels comfortable and secure. I also have a pet camera at home for added monitoring, and a baby gate if a dog feels more comfortable in a smaller, more confined space. I’m especially mindful with more anxious dogs, as I have one of my own, so I understand the importance of patience and creating a calm, safe environment.

“Eileen is bright and energetic. A pleasure to work with.”

About: I started my experience dog walking 2 years ago for a professor’s friend in Winchester, Virginia. Twice a week, I would walk her hyper pups. She then recommended me to her father, whose dog I began walking twice a week as well. From there, my mini business boomed through word of mouth. I began dog sitting in people’s homes as well for multiple individuals for varying time spans. Most of the dogs I interacted with were seniors and required extensive care. However, all dogs owners loved and recommended me to others! I still walk the original dogs and add in others as my schedule allows with two other jobs. I am sad to leave my extensive clientele in Winchester, but I am moving back to New Jersey for graduate school and excited to meet new puppy friends!! For the summertime, I am incredibly flexible with nothing planned. I prefer weekly walks / drop ins, but also like sitting as well. In August, I start physical therapy school at Columbia University so my availability will decrease but I’d be willing to provide services on nights / weekends. During breaks, my availability will open up again! Whenever walking / sitting, I respect the owner’s rules, no matter what. I long to maintain utmost cleanliness and adherence to routine as physically possible. I am also very communicative and honest, building trust with my clients.

About: Here’s what you should know before booking with me: - I’ve been on this app since May 2023 - I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 14, and I love them. They're one of my favorite animals, and I always treat them with patience and gentleness. - I can let you know how many pets I’m currently looking after if you’d like. - I usually reply pretty quickly, so feel free to reach out anytime! - I’m all about spending quality time with your pet. Whether it’s backyard playtime, walks around the neighborhood, or visits to the park, let me know what your pet loves most! - Crates are only used if requested by the pet owner. - I pay close attention to whether it makes sense to separate pets, and we can chat about this when you book. - I’ve got 4 years’ experience caring for cats. - I’ve given injections to dogs before, and if there’s anything specific I need to know for other pets, I’m happy to learn! - Need pet pickup or drop-off? I might be able to help depending on how far you are, and we’ll work out the details together. - I don’t offer grooming services. - Pet bath is not free. Before we book, just a heads-up that I’ll need a photo showing your pet’s up-to-date shots (including rabies). Can't wait to meet your pet! Since I’m around for most of the day at home, I can make sure they’re well taken care of, entertained, and feeling loved while you’re away. At my place or at the owner’s house, I always make sure to give pets the love and care they deserve by providing them with food, fresh water, and plenty of playtime. I also make it a point to follow their instructions on feeding, giving medication, and tending to any special needs. I believe it's important to make the pets feel at ease and secure while also honoring their owners' rules and routines.

“Suzie is so kind! She was punctual, approachable, and good at communication. She truly cares about my pets and that’s more important than anything else to me!”

About: If you give me the opportunity to care for your pet, you'll feel at ease knowing I'll take care of it as if it were my own. I'll give it all the love and attention it needs to make you feel happy. Right now I'd like to dedicate myself solely to animals and their care. I have every day of the week free to dedicate myself to them. For me, all animals deserve the same treatment and care. I always give them my best, no matter the occasion. I will always give you all my love, attention and you will never lack my care.

“Andrew always comes in clutch at the last minute! I’ve used Andrew in the past and Timo already knows that when Andrew comes by it’s play time! As always Andrew is communicative, punctual and focused on full attention for Timo while he is here. Couldn’t recommend Andrew enough!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over five years, and I have two small dogs of my own that I love. I’m organized, responsible, and attentive, and I provide each dog with personalized care, walks, and playtime. I also prioritize clear communication with owners, just as I appreciate when someone cares for my own pets. I’m available all week, including weekends. Just reach out and we can discuss your schedule. I kindly ask owners to be honest about their pets’ needs and behavior so I can provide the best care and avoid any issues during their stay. I prefer to care for pets at my home, where I can provide a safe and comfortable environment. I offer boarding only for small dogs, as I live on a 2nd floor, and I have a backyard where pets can play at least twice a day, along with neighborhood walks. My goal is for every dog to have a happy and enjoyable stay. For any specific details or questions, feel free to contact me.
