“Leah quickly responded on our last minute request. She was willing to come meet our pups prior to walking them. She gave us updates and photos in a timely manner. We will use Leah again in the future for our needs.”


About: I love animals of all kinds. It’s important that your fur babies know they are being cared for. I’m happy to help! Please consider me. I just relocated to Georgetown to be closer to family and I’m looking for a job in my profession. Until then, I’m happy to drop in and take care of your fur babies! I can only care for your pets at your home. Please consider me for a dog walk, companion, or cat sitter. I’m happy to help!

“Josh just started walking my 9 year old pup. He took the time to do a meet and greet and get my old gal use to him. She was already so excited to see him today when for her first walk with him. He takes lots of pics and provides great information. He kind and gentle with animals and is so sweet! Thank you Josh!”


About: I started fostering dogs with different rescue organizations 22 years ago. I have taken care of all different breeds, sizes, and behaviors. I have a passion for animals and seeing that their needs are met. I am a teacher so I am off daily by 4:30 pm and home on the weekends. I am also off all summer and spend most of my time at home. I have a nice sized fenced back yard with a doggy door for pets to come and go as they want. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks around my neighborhood.

“Our dogs love their walks with Taylor. Taylor is punctual and reliable. She's also patient and sweet with our pups and it's obvious they love her. Taylor is a great communicator and provides updates as appropriate through the rover app. The best part about Taylor is she takes amazing photos of the dogs after their walks. The pictures are so good that I often share them with family and friends and post them to my social media. Taylor is great and I highly recommend her for all your pup's needs. Your dogs will thank you for it.”


“We will definitely be a repeat client! Our girl was so happy to get her visits during the day and she was in constant communication with us! Thank you for taking such good care of her!!”

About: I have plenty animals of my own ranging from cats to fish, to dogs and reptiles. I’ve worked with bottle babies all the way to seniors needing special loving care. I’d like to say I’m a professional at giving pills now! One of my first jobs was working at Petsmart in the pet care department. I absolutely love spending time with animals and learning more about them every day. My current job is as a CNA part-time for humans! Currently I’m going to school in the evenings two days a week and working part-time. I have plenty of time to love and care for your animals! I always go slow with new animals to learn about their boundaries. Asking the pet parent about their fur baby always gives me more insight on behavior. Upon entering a home I want to make sure not only the animal is comfortable, but the owner.

“Kearson , She is on time and my dog loves her. She has passion for walking and taking care of animals. She would make a great veterinarian. Thank you for being on top of your job. Regards, Judy”


About: I have had animals my entire life. I started dog sitting during high school. I have had hands-on experience with dogs at every life stage-from training energetic puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior and pregnant dogs. I’m confident with administering medication, giving baths, and tailoring care to each dog’s needs. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight house sitting, I offer dependable, loving care that puts both you and your dog at ease. As a college student on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I love spending my free time walking, playing with, and caring for pups. Your dog will get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection all summer long! When caring for pets in your home, I stick to their usual routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide plenty of playtime, snuggles, walks, and even like to make homemade treats- if they’re allowed! I also make sure your home stays tidy and your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away.

About: Personally, my entire family are pet lovers. I have always been the responsible option for family and friends to care for their dogs and cats. I pay attention to detail and will care for your animals like my own! I am currently a student and would be available to care for your animal(s) before school and after I get out of school at 3pm. However, in the Summer I am available full time per my calendar. I am available on weekends to help as well! I have a complete fenced yard and live on 1.25 acres that your pets can run around in. I also have two very friendly dogs (Great Dane & Sheep-a-doodle) that are indoor animals but love to play outside. I can either keep the animals at my house or I could come to yours to take care of them.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life and have always had a deep love for their well-being. I’ve cared for my own pets—my cat, Millie (11), and my dog, Scooby (8)—and have also volunteered at local humane societies since I was young, gaining hands-on experience with animals of all kinds. In addition to pet care, I have lived with my maternal grandparents my whole life and continue to help take care of them as they navigate their late 80s. Their care is one of the reasons I moved to this area, and through this experience, I’ve developed patience, responsibility, and a strong sense of compassion. Whether it’s tending to pets or people, I take pride in providing attentive and loving care to those who depend on me. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Every day, I make sure my cat, Millie, and my dog, Scooby, are well-fed, exercised, and given plenty of love and attention. Scooby enjoys his daily walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions, while Millie loves her quiet moments and routine care. Beyond my own pets, I also dedicate time to helping animals through my volunteer work at local humane societies whenever possible. In addition to pet care, I help take care of my grandparents, ensuring their needs are met and that they have support in their daily lives. Balancing both responsibilities has taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and consistency—qualities that I bring to every pet I care for. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just providing companionship, taking care of animals is something I prioritize and truly enjoy in my everyday life. I'm in an online graduate program so I do not have many conflictions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping them on their regular schedule to minimize stress. This includes feeding them at their usual times, taking dogs on their preferred walks, engaging them in play, and providing companionship. I also ensure their environment remains clean and safe, whether that means cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water bowls, or tidying up after play. Additionally, I am attentive to any special needs a pet may have, such as administering medication or accommodating specific dietary restrictions. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care so pet owners can have peace of mind knowing their furry friends are in good hands.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, and care for their pets like they’re my own. I’m confident with shy dogs, energetic puppies, and senior pets who need extra attention. I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. Whether it’s a long walk, belly rubs, or medication time, I’ve got it covered Pet care fits into my weekly routine really well. I’m available Monday mornings from 7 AM to 3 PM, all day Wednesday, and evenings from 5 PM to midnight on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule when I can. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most safe and comfortable. I follow any instructions you leave carefully and keep your pet’s routine consistent. I’m respectful of your space, and I always make sure your pet gets lots of attention, love, and care while you’re away.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, birds, turtles, fish, goats, cows, etc since I was very young. Some I owned, and others were owned by other people. I love all animals and am great at socialization and calming wild pups down. We adopted 3 kittens and a husky (02/25). The kittens are being raised as husky pups as the husky has decided she is mom. They act like dogs and all get along with everyone. Even pets that are aggressive to cats get along with our kittens. Same as far as our husky. They are unique and why we decided to keep them (started off as boardings and owners asked us to keep them). I work 10 minutes from my house. I can go home to check on your pet during work hours (1 hour lunch break). I am a dental assistant and BLS certified. Once I am home, I am home. I have a large gated yard as well. Weekends: I am home outside of errands and have little helpers. I have a large fenced yard and a three bedroom home. In cooler months we leave the back door open (fence is locked). I don’t like to kennel dogs if I don’t have to.

About: I grew up with different puppies including small dogs like shitzus and bigger dogs like labs and dobermans. This most definitely set the stage for my absolute adoration for animals. When given the opportunity to take your vet on vacation I will ensure the best time possible!! Your animals no matter what species, size, or shape will be treated as if they are my own. We love pets, just don’t want to buy one now while we are saving. Our passion for pets has found us here, getting to hangout with animals while getting a little tip. My wife and I will make sure you pet has an awesome vacation! If I am-checking in on your home, I will ensure to treat it with the outmost respect. I will make sure to only handle things you have instructed to do and will send plenty of photo updates! :) Also if you have any additional plant care or anything else I need to do I will be happy to do so! Thank you for the consideration and trust you have in me!!

About: Growing up i’ve always been surrounded with both dogs and cats, because of this I’ve gained firsthand experience taking care and raising dogs and cats. Since then I have been reliable for pet sitting my siblings dogs. When I watch my siblings dogs, I prioritize their well-being by walking, playing, and giving them the attention they need. I have my own cat, Olive, that I love more than anything. I adopted him when he was still a baby, but in my eyes he will always be a baby. I believe that animals should be treated with the absolute best care. I only want to show them much joy they give us with love and care. The siblings that I pet sit for each have their own meal plan for how they feed their pets. I value how and what you feed your pets, because like people, animals can have sensitive stomachs. Sitting for my brothers dogs gave me the realization for this. The dogs he has have the most sensitive stomachs and created a natural meal plan for his pups. This gave me experience on how to meal prep their food with natural ingredients. I understand feline behavior and care, ensuring that both dogs and cats feel comfortable and loved while you're away. Your pets will receive personalized attention, exercise, and care tailored to their individual needs! I am currently available anytime during the day and week. Message me if a time slot isn't available! I am available most weekends and even holidays. I will follow all pet-owner expectations that have been expressed, as well as basic safety animal handling while walking your animal and interacting with them when meeting together. Let me know if your dog has any medical conditions or special needs that require attention. I would also like to know if a dog has any aggression or anxiety issues, how they react around other dogs and people, and if they have specific triggers that may cause them to become stressed or reactive. You can share with me your dog's exercise needs and activity level so that I can appropriately plan activities and outings. I'd love to know any trainings and commands you're working on or if they're already learned. This will help me to better communicate with them.

About: Hello! My name is Joanna. I grew up around animals since I lived on acreage. As a kid we had cows, chickens, ducks, dogs, and cats. I used to pet sit all of the time when I was in high school and even helped train bird dogs. I currently have a dog of my own, her name is Aurora, she is 85 lbs of pure outgoing love. I have plenty of experience with cats as well, I used to cat sit and even foster. I have a pretty lenient schedule, I am flexible so as long as we are able to communicate pick up and drop off it should be fine. We live on acreage where I takes the dogs for a walk and we also have two big dog kennels. I have a dog and so does my mom so they will have friends to play with. We have one outdoor cat but no indoor cats. If you have cats we have a litter box and they will stay inside.

“Emilee was early, warm, and wonderful. Wags took to her immediately, and I am excited Emilee can walk Wags when we go out of town!”


Reagan F.
“Reagan watched my dog and cat for about a week and took amazing care of them. He stayed in my apartment and when I came back it looked even better than when I left. My dog was not spayed and got her period while Reagan was watching her. We had no idea what was happening but he dealt with it extremely well and cleaned as needed. Based on that, I'm sure he'd be able to deal with anything thrown his way - any issues your pet may have/face while he was watching them. Another reason why Reagan would be an amazing sitter on Rover is that my dog was a pit bull and had really bad separation anxiety. She escaped from my apartment all of the time, had aggression issues with other dogs and was not leash trained. Despite all of this, he was able to take extremely good care of her and when I came back she was better behaved. He did amazing with my pets and I know he'd be amazing with your animals as well. Highly recommend :)”
