“Always a joy to have Keerie watching our littles! Always very attentive, stays longer than required (for cuddles of course!), is very respectful of the home and pets. The kitties and reptiles thank you! 😊”


“My cats absolutely adored when Maria would check in. I could tell by how happy they looked in the pictures! Maria also made sure all of the chores I asked were finished and even did some extra cleaning/tidying afterwards. Thank you a lot for easing my mind during my trip and making sure my kitties were happy too!”


About: Having a pet of my own with diabetes set me on a path to learn more and start a career toward helping animals that may need more care than others. I am a helper by trade and love spending time with pets so I hope I can apply my years of dedication and adoration for animals by helping take care of yours when you need assistance. I work as a general handyman and take classes toward veterinary technician and looking to help others with my spare time. Walking dogs is a passion of mine and, depending on the owner's request, can keep it local or take them to a desired park or hiking path. I walk daily on my own so a few extra paws would be good for me and the pooch! My cats are indoor/outdoor so they roam but stay close to the property. I do not leave them out alone. Inside we play a bit until they get bored, listen to music, and of course they nap...mostly they nap... When I have had dogs in the past, they get outside time to enjoy the sunshine and breeze and we're never left out in bad weather conditions. They've always had a safe and comfortable place inside the home.

“Rebekah did a great job for us while we were on vacation. She kept us informed with photos and comments. I feel that our kitty was in great hands and would highly recommend Rebekah to anyone needing a pet sitter!!”


“Tasha did an amazing job caring for our cats for the week! She made sure they felt loved and comfortable as well as keeping everything clean too. We were nervous to leave our girls, but Tasha sent so many sweet pictures and updates which made our trip much less stressful! We will definitely book with her again! :)”


About: As a former foster parent for dogs, I’ve cared for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and love. I know how to read their body language, build trust, and provide a calm, comforting space. Whether your dog needs playful enrichment, gentle medication, or just lots of snuggles, I tailor my care to their unique needs. I treat every dog like family because to me, they truly are. I am also willing to help monitor and care for cats, and other small in-home animals, such as hamsters. If you have any of these pets that will need tended to please let me know during your booking. Bonus: I’m experienced with crate training, leash manners, and helping shy or anxious pups feel safe. Your dog will be in loving, capable hands! Please see my attached schedule within the photos for time frames I am available for your baby! If you have any questions about my availability or schedule, don't hesitate to reach out! At my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I create a safe, cozy, and low-stress environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel right at home. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible—feeding times, walks, play, and any special instructions you provide. Because of my experience as a foster parent, I’m very mindful of each dog’s personality and comfort level. Whether they need extra playtime, space to decompress, or just a lot of love, I adjust my care to fit their needs. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space and routines while keeping communication open. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being always come first—no matter where they are.

“We are beyond pleased with the care and attention Madylon gave to our cat. She put our little Bells, normally a very skittish cat, at ease from the first visit. Highly recommend Madylon and will seek her out anytime we are on vacation. Thank you Madylon for taking wonderful care of our Bell!”


About: Growing up with dogs as a part of the family I have taken care of them my whole life. When I was 15 my family brought home a new puppy and I didn’t have a summer job, so she was my responsibility. Over the years I have taken care of dogs of all ages from energetic puppies to senior pups that need a little more love and understanding. I have administered medications and eye drops with ease and few trick up my sleeves. I enjoy having training sessions with the dogs and even teaching them a new trick while their family is away. This helps give them something to focus on and encourages bonding between us. I would be honored to take care of your furry family member while you’re away. I'm currently working part time and would love to help out your family while I have the time. While in my current status I can do more walks, potty breaks as needed. Potty break is the first and foremost needed when I arrive at a client's home. Then a walk, a little time for some training and a little bit of play as well. It's just as important they have some mental stimulation.

About: I have 3 adorable pups! I love them to death and I recently adopted a pit-bull puppy that’s the sweetest girl and a quick learner with her training! I always make sure to properly take care of my dogs, play with them, and spoil them with loads of love and attention. im currently 18 and a senior in high school, I have worked plenty of jobs but I recently resigned to focus on my studies, and taking care of your perfect little pets will be a fitting outlet for me! I have many college bills I need to pay and rover is the perfect way to earn a little bit of money to pay them off. I can do late afternoons, evenings, weekends, and all day during summer! I’ve had pets all my life I have learned to take care of and love them, putting my heart into it, and I honestly just have a natural calling to animals, they love me and I love them!

She is meticulous about meal times and portions. She can be counted on to do whatever you need for your pet.”
