“Zoe was amazing with our cats! She was caring, responsible, and kept us updated with pictures and messages. We came home to happy, well cared pets. Highly recommend!”


“Amy has been perfect in caring for my cats over the years. She is loving and attentive to them, and extremely dependable. She has gone out of her way to help me when I've had unusual situations. I very highly recommend her!”


About: I love taking care of furry friends! Family and friends have relied of me to pop in and take their fur babies on walks, get them all clean, and make sure they get their tummies full. Not only do I take care of pets but also people! I am a registered nurse with a passion for helping others! Have a last minute trip you need to go on don’t worry I offer same day services. Just send me a message and we can work something out. I love taking care of furry friends in my free time! Request your time and I will let you know if I am available to watch your fur baby! I treat everyone with kindness including your fur babies. A day with me your fur baby can expect to have water always available. We will take a half mile walk and play for 30 minutes. There will be opportunities for cuddles and snuggles. You will need to provide the food for your baby with instructions on how much and how often to feed. I do require that all fur babies be potty trained as I rent the space that I live in.

“Jacqui did great with our cat, Flower. We were gone for a week and Flower seemed very at ease when we came home. Jacqui went above & beyond making sure our porch light was on/off when necessary & bringing in our mail. She was on time for every visit & sent photos/updates through out the week. She also responded to texts very fast which was relieving because our service was choppy. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”


“We are so pleased with the service that Iris provided for our senior kitty, Marilyn, while we were away on vacation! Iris was a great communicator throughout and very patient and thorough with the care she provided. Iris exudes a true love and passion for animals. We would highly recommend her to anyone!”


About: I've had at least one pet my whole life. I grew up with an older dog that gave me a safe and comforting feeling. I am well experienced with different personalities and ages. I make sure my pets have been taken care of and also played with, that they feel loved and safe as my first dog had made me feel. I wake up fairly early at 6am to 7am. I make sure my animals are let out and fed soon after. I make sure throughout the day they have been given plenty of time to exercise and play before bedtime. The first thing I would do when first meeting a new friend is to not rush into it. I'd get to know them and their routine especially cats because they don't like their routine changed. They would have all their needs met even if it was specific on time and amounts. I would give additional attention and care for your pet because they experience a lot of stress while their owner is away.

“Wonderful!! Very attentive and communicative. Definitely will book Amanda again.”


“Alexis Was very dependable, loving, and very committed to ensuring Gizzy was taken care of. She communicated everytime she was at the house seeing Gizzy. She made sure Gizzy was fed and offered to go above and beyond. Definitely recommend and will use this service and Alexis again.”


About: I am capable and comfortable taking care of dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments! I’ve helped leash, house, and crate train a few dogs as well! I currently work part time and would love to fill my extra time with animals, so I have plenty of time to take care of pets with almost any needs! Though I’m not able to board your pet at my house I promise to provide quality care at your home and keep them safe and happy

“Brooklyn did a great good taking care of my babies while I was away! :)”


About: I have worked at an animal clinic before so I have experience with cats and dogs of all sizes and breeds! I have also helped with some of my friends and family’s animals while they have been gone! That includes bathing, feeding, walking, and spending quality time with them! Animals is one of my biggest passions, and I hope I can be help to your family! I just recently got a job as a grooming apprentice making my way to be a groomer as well! I just started becoming a grooming apprentice as of April 2025, I am making my way to be a groomer and I work every weekday from 7:40am to around 3-4:30pm each day. I am a part time college student. I have classes on Wednesday and Thursday nights! I am available everyday of the week besides the nights I have class form 6–10. On Sunday I go to church from 10:30/12 so that’s the only time I’m busy on Sunday’s as well! I’m looking for a full time job so my hours may change here in the future! I have a fenced in yard with two playful dogs! If needed I do have crates that they can be put in! I also am not far from a dog park!

About: I have cared for and raised multiple species of animals raising from dogs and cats to pigs and sheep since I was 5 years old! I have been trusted with many different pet’s care, ranging from puppies to seniors, hyperactive and special needs! I enjoy exercising and find it even better when I have a little friend to accompany me! I can throw a tennis ball for hours and I’m a pro tug-of-war player, and sometimes I might even let your pet win! I have a very flexible schedule! Very rarely will there be any conflict with any duties that I decide to take on. Your pet’s safety comes first, and if it comes to my schedule or your pet’s well-being, your pet will always be the first choice! I have an unfenced yard, but I use a leash to let my own dog out, and would do the same for your animals! I have a friendly 5 year old miniature dachshund who loves to play and would be so happy to have some more fur friends. I also have two cats who like to mind their own business. All of my pets are always vet checked and up to date on vaccinations. In your home, I follow any directions you give me exactly as they have been told. I always prefer playing with a pet than watching tv or sitting on my phone, after all, I’m here for the pets in the first place! I’m always ready for walks or play time and ready and willing to do anything for your pets!

About: I’ve taken care of tons of cats and dogs of all different ages and sizes. I had a private pet watching business when I lived in LA. I also have experience of taking care of my own. I am very flexible. I can take care of dogs or cats whenever I am needed. I mainly would not like to have the dogs or cats watching over at my own place due to the fact that I have a dog and a cat and wouldn’t want that to be a problem. I have a cat and dog at home so unfortunately I cannot watch dogs or cats here. The chihuahua has bad anxiety and I am just now making progress with him so I want to ease into that when the time comes. I take good care of my cat and dog by making sure they are flea free, both fixed, well fed, potty trained, etc.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years — my own pups, plus dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. I love every part of it, from daily walks and mealtime routines to giving extra attention to senior dogs who need a little more help. Whether it’s belly rubs, medications, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m home for the summer from college and have a super flexible schedule right now. Since I’m not juggling classes or assignments, I have plenty of time to give your pup the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I’m available and happy to help! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow care instructions closely, keep a watchful eye during walks and playtime, and make sure your dog stays in a secure, stress-free environment. You can trust that your pup will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own.

About: I have had pets of every kind since I was little! I am able to give medication, clip nails, give baths, walk, etc. If there is something you need that I’m inexperienced in, I am open to learning! I currently stay home with my two boys so I have a very flexible schedule for your furry friend’s needs! We are able to do walks, home visits, or board them here. We have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs here! Lots of play and love available. We can also crate your dog (ours get crated nightly) or they can snuggle with us in bed if that is what they’re used to! Dogs are welcome on furniture here. We share this home with our pets in every way!

“Very professional! Justice did a wonderful job of providing drop-in care for our two cats while we were away. Her communication is excellent.”


About: I’ve had 14 years of friends, family and neighbors trusting me for walking, feeding, giving baths, playing, gaining trust, building relationships with their furry family members and anything that comes with taking care of dogs 🥰 I’m currently trying to get a full time schedule on Rover. I’ve always wanted to work a job I absolutely love doing, what’s better than taking care of and playing with dogs all day? Nothing! Due to me not working, I have open availability for whenever your fur babies need to be taken care of! I can take care of your pets in any way that makes you comfortable! There will be a lot of playing and cuddles and love!

“Romeo loved Meghan from the moment she walked in the door. She was on time and stayed as long as she was scheduled for. Romeo was happy and sound asleep when I returned home. I will definitely use her again.”


About: I have had pets since I was little, and am very knowledgeable in dog behavior. I have been in daycare settings for children, so I will treat your pups care like I do with daycare kiddos, I will be very communicative to you, and send you pictures. I have trained multiple puppies in my lifetime, and have had a couple of senior dogs. I have had Labs, one Doberman, and Pugs. I have also raised two litters of puppies. Currently, I have an English Bulldog/Sharpei mix who is 11 months and constantly learning new things about behavior, and how to manage it. I am always learning new things about dog behavior and training as it is one of my passions. I will treat your fur baby as my own. I am excited to get to know you and your fur baby. Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine because I am at home and I am excited to start taking care of other peoples pets. On the weekends at the moment I can fit in some later shifts, it is not listed, however I can. I will care for your pets the way you want me to take care of them. Tell me what you want me to do, and I will do it. These are your babies. I want to learn everything about them and care for them the way you care for them.

And although I only asked for dog care, she went above and beyond and did light house cleaning as well.”
