“Maggie was seriously fabulous! 10/10 and will be using her again. She was so communicative and we loved how much she cared for our babies. So happy we found her!!”


“Danielle was excellent for checking in and feeding, scooping litter, etc. My Bucky boy. She sent me messages when she was there to feed him and a pic each time. I was relaxed and calm knowing he was in good hands.”

“Zyane is an excellent dog sitter and took great care of my Indy. She was more than willing to shift her schedule whenever I had last minute changes in my work schedule. She is reliable, consistent and considerate. She let me know in advance whenever her schedule changed so that I wasn’t rushing to find a last minute pet sitter. She would clean my dog’s paws after he got them muddy on their walks and I didn’t even have to ask her. She is very attentive and amazing to work with. 10/10 recommend”

“Taylor was great with our 3 kitties. She did everything we needed her to do while we were enjoying a getaway. She was easily reachable and always posted cute pictures of the cats and kept us up to date on their activities. Would highly recommend Taylor!”

“Peyton did an amazing job I came home to my fur babies happy and well taken cared of, she went above and beyond for my fur babies to make sure that it was still home even when we weren’t around and followed every little detail I would definitely recommend her again !!!”

About: I have always had pet dogs and cats that I took care of basically since I was old enough to do so. I have also watched many neighbors animals throughout my life. As a grad student I have an ever-changing schedule allowing me to be free at odd hours to let pets out or take them for walks while their owners work. Your pets safety is the of the utmost importance to me. I follow your pets feeding, walk, and play schedules so that they feel the most comfortable and at home as they can while you're away or at work. I respect your home as if it was my own keeping it tidy and treating it with care. I just want your pets to feel relaxed and happy.
About: I’ve been caring for other people's pets for over 10 years, and it’s something that has always come very naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve built long-term relationships with families, including providing overnight pet sitting in clients’ homes for a week or more at a time. While I’ve done a lot of overnight, in-home pet sitting in the past, I now focus on drop-in visits so your pets can stay comfortable and relaxed in their own home and routine. I truly believe pets do best in their familiar environment, and I’m here to support that. I would describe myself as attentive, gentle, and genuinely loving with animals. I take the time to make sure each pet feels safe, cared for, and not alone while their family is away, whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or just extra affection. I have experience with dogs, cats, and even chickens, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including giving medications when needed. As a military spouse, I also have access to Fort Rucker, which allows me to provide care for families living on base. Communication is very important to me. I love sending updates and photos, because as a pet owner myself (my cat Zuzu is my whole world 🐱), I know how much it means to feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own and take the responsibility of caring for them very seriously. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to be flexible and consistent with scheduling. I can accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits depending on what works best for your pet. I make it a priority to give each pet my full attention and to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I understand how important familiarity is for animals, so I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and any specific instructions closely. During visits, I make sure your pet gets the attention they need, whether that’s playtime, walks, or simply companionship... while also being mindful of their individual personality and energy level. I am very respectful of your home and treat it with care, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as you left them. I also make sure doors, gates, and any safety measures are always properly handled. Communication is a priority for me, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for, and for you to have complete peace of mind.
“Lynde was very prompt in responses and helped us with last minute needs. She took great care of our dog and sent pictures with each visit. She gave detailed descriptions of their visits and how he was doing while we were away. Thank you!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I am super experienced with dogs ranging from Yorkies to Dobermans. I love to cuddle, play, take on walks and just be around dogs. I currently own a black lab who’s one year old now! I would love to help you out with any of your pet needs. I also live on base !! I am not working currently so my days are totally open! I am available to walk or drop in any time throughout the day!! I’m flexible with weekends as well! I like to make your dogs feel at home. Whether I’m doing a drop in or they are at my house. I will always put them first and make sure they feel safe and loved. I will easily and gladly follow your instructions to make sure your fur babies feel safe.
About: Whether it's daily walks, administering oral medication, or just giving extra belly rubs and attention, I know how important it is to feel your pet is in good hands. I'm here to make that experience worry-free and full of tail-wags (or happy purrs). I can't wait to meet your furry friend! I work full-time hybrid schedule, so some weekdays I'm able to do daycare for housebroke, friendly pups. On the weekends, I'm happy to do drop-in visits, dog walking, or just spend some time with your pets! I have a small, friendly dog of my own to keep your furry friends company if they come visit or go on walks! He loves playing with other dogs, and easily makes friends. I live in a house with a fenced in backyard in a walk-friendly neighborhood. I'm happy to crate your dog(s) when needed, and you can bet they'll always receive lots of love and pets!
“Shyla & John were perfect! Shyla dropped in on our cat once a day for 14 days over the Christmas holiday. She is very responsive, easy to communicate with, and very accommodating. She responded almost immediately when I requested if she was available and was accommodating when I worried about our cat being alone for too long on the first day. She was able to stop by earlier and also dropped by during a few times on the automatic feeder since I needed reassurance that it was actually working! I would definitely recommend to anybody!”

About: I have a 13-years-young dog of my own and have enjoyed fostering manyyy dogs and cats from the animal shelter over the years. I genuinely love getting to know each pet and will ensure yours receives lots of attention, patience and care! I’m available most weekdays, and my schedule can be easily tailored to your pet’s needs! Just let me know what works best for you and your schedule. I am currently not offering pet boarding or overnight house sitting. If this is a need, don’t hesitate to reach out and we can discuss.

James was an exceptional sitter! He paid attention to details, and was thorough on every visit. I loved getting all the pictures of my fur baby, along with other aspects of her care I requested. His communication was clear and timely. I was worried to leave my pet while on vacation, but it was clear very quickly that my pet was in responsible and caring hands. I really appreciated that he took the time to actually play with and care for my cat, not a simple drop in to feed her. I will definitely use James again as a pet sitter if I need one!

Hector was the perfect fit for our two large dogs. He was very knowledgeable, patient, and thorough. He gave medications, took them on walks, and even helped clean up after they got sick. We loved the check-ins and our boys loved having him stop by! Thanks, Hector!!

Kristen is just awesome! Last month somehow messed up scheduling a date Kristen and I had discussed for her too care for my three mini dachshunds on the day when I would be gone from home from 3 AM until 830 or 9 PM. I discovered that I had never scheduled it the night before we were to leave. I reached out to her via the River site. She advised that she already had a really busy day scheduled, and yet, still found time to schedule to drop in visits to check on my kids, feed them, and give them potty breaks. I let her know that I understood her being busy and that I could make other arrangements because I did not want to overburden her day when she was already so busy. She insisted that she was able to do the two drop in visits. My baby love her to death. She is such an awesome, caring, kind person. She goes above and beyond. She is a sitter, pet caregiver extraordinaire!!!
