About: I am a huge dog lover! My 7 year old lab/pit mix Conway is my rock and best friend. I care for all dogs like I care for Conway. I have had a dog all of my life, so I am very comfortable with pet care of all types. I am an experienced dog-walker as well and have cared for friends' and neighbors' pets for many years. Also, I am working on Conway's summer body and we are up to 3 mile walks a day. I am not saying that your dog needs all three miles but I am up for doing the long walks, if needed. I work from home every day. I have essentially wide open availability (minus some scattered meetings that will be scheduled ahead). I can care for your pet on any week day or weekend. Day or night. I am caring and respectful of the owner's wishes. Having a dog of my own, I know how important it is for owners to ensure that they are leaving their fur babies home with somebody that cares and they trust. If an owner has specific directions of care, I will follow those to the T.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals for 4 years now. Cats, dogs, hedgehogs, fish etc. I enjoy taking care of animals and I would love to help take care of yours! I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I have a flexible schedule and have no problem discussing what works best for the both of us. I will do my best to maintain a schedule for the pet and work with the client to see what makes the client and pet the most happy!
“Kristan did great watching our dog at our house for the weekend! Our dog is a little particular and requires lots of walks for her energy and Kristan was great meeting her needs. She gave her all the attention she needs and gave us updates. She also left our house all neat and clean! Definitely recommend her!”

“Lauren did an awesome job caring for our pup! She was very attentive to her needs and was very trustworthy staying in our home. I would definitely recommend her and hope to use her services again in the future!”

“Michelle did a great job. We really appreciated her assistance on such little notice for her. Diesel was very happy. Would strongly recommend Michelle to everyone. We will be using her again in the very near future!!!”

“Zoe was amazing with our two unpredictable pups. She has taken them on walks and has stayed with them. They both loved her! We will definitely rebook with her. Thank you so much Zoe!”

“So glad to have found Gilda to housesit and take care of my 2 older and somewhat high maintenance dogs while I was away on vacation. She was very caring, conscientious, thoughtful, kind, and generous with her time. She gave medication for my oldest dog and was very patient with getting my picky eaters to eat their food. I highly recommend Gilda for pet and house sitting. She is wonderful!”

“Malika was amazing. We had a couple hiccups while we were away with security system batteries and some mail and Malika was gracious enough to be a helping hand beyond the house-sitting/petsitting duties. She also had cleaned to make sure we came home to a comfortable home after our flight. Much appreciated! And the animals were happy too!”

“Mackenzie was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our two girls! We were gone for 11 days, and we were a bit nervous as our older lab can be slow to warm up to new people. Mackenzie was so thoughtful and proactive, offering to come by for two separate meet-and-greets before our trip. It made a world of difference and put everyone at ease. While we were away, she sent lots of wonderful pictures and updates, and it was clear our dogs were happy and well cared for. To top it all off, we came home to a house that was even tidier than we left it! We are so thrilled with Mackenzie's care and professionalism. We’ve definitely found our go-to sitter for all future trips!”


“Cathy is fantastic!!! We have booked her three times to take care of our labs for overnights. We recently added a 3rd lab to the mix and Cathy came to do a meet and greet. She is very patient and responsive. She is our “go to” Rover pet sitter!!!! We will most definitely book her again!”
“Kort did such a wonderful job watching our dog (and bearded dragon) while we were away for the holidays! He followed all of our detailed instructions and gave our pets lots of attention and love. We received daily updates with many pictures and even videos, which were much appreciated! Kort is very considerate and professional and we will definitely be using him again in the future!”

“Sarah was communicative and easy to connect with. My house is probably cleaner than I left it and my dog had a great week doing all of his usual things--lots of outside time and couch hangs. Thanks, Sarah!”


“Amanda took excellent care of our pups and kitty while we were away. She was great about being flexible for our short notice trip out of state. I'm not even sure the pups were sad that we were gone. We will definitely have Amanda back the next time we travel!”

“I am so grateful we found Kristen! She was reliable, professional, and cared for our dog Bella like her own. She is so sweet and thoughtful. Kristen is a great communicator. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and would absolutely use her services again in the future.”

“It was such a pleasure to have Natalie care for our fur baby. She was so attentive with Luna and maintained consistent communication throughout. Natalie was so kind , considerate and super loving and affectionate with our Luna. We will defiantly be reaching out to Natalie again for her services!”

“Thank you for taking such good care of our furr babies!! Thank you for being so trust worthy and communicative. I knew they were in good hands and was able to relax while out of town. Also, thank you for taking care of the house. Will book again!”

Sure! Here’s a polished review you can use for Isabella: ⸻ We had a wonderful experience with Isabella caring for our golden retriever. She truly has a passion for animals and took the time to make our dog feel relaxed and comfortable. Her communication was excellent—she kept us updated and gave our family peace of mind while we were away. We really appreciate the care and attention she gave, and we wouldn’t hesitate to have her look after our dog again!

Savannah was great! She spent a week at our house while we were away and took good care of our dog and cat. We felt comfortable during our trip because we knew they were in good hands. We chose Savannah because of her great reviews and I’m happy to say that the reviews are accurate! We will definitely book with her again ☺️
