“Alex watched my dog overnight at my house while I was on a short work trip. I typically leave Oso with family when I have to go away, and last time I used a different sitter I had a bad experience, so I was hesitant to leave him overnight. But Alex was professional and I knew Oso was in good hands. Came home to a happy dog. Thank you!!”


“We found a gem in Tara! She stayed at our home and took excellent care of our furry family members. Tara was very respectful of our house and provided wonderful care for our fur babies. We look forward to having her back for future sittings.”


“Tim was great to work with. The puppies seemed to get along great with him from the first meeting and Tim sent pictures while we were away for nearly a week. He was communicative throughout our trip and very accommodating by helping out with the trash and recycling on their pickup days too! I would not hesitate to rebook with Tim in the future!”


“I had the pleasure of having Allie as our dog sitter for Ace and Summer, and I couldn't be happier with her exceptional service. Allie did an amazing job taking care of our fur babies while we were away. She was responsible, reliable, and showed great affection towards our dogs. We could tell that she genuinely cared for their well-being and went above and beyond to ensure they were happy and comfortable. Allie's attention to detail and timely updates gave us peace of mind during our time apart. I highly recommend Allie as a dog sitter and would definitely trust her with our pets again in the future. Thank you, Allie, for your fantastic care!”


“Molly was FANTASTIC!! This is the first time we have used a Pet Sitter. We have 2 Bernedoodle’s, Jingles who’s almost 6 and Holly who is 2 1/2. Jingles is very laid back and loves everyone. Holly on the other hand is all puppy still and she barks at everyone. We were a bit worried about how Holly would we with a total stranger. Molly came over to meet both dogs several days before we left for a long weekend. She was great with both dogs even though Holly was a bit apprehensive and barked at her most of the time. She quickly gained both of their trust by giving them snacks and giving them some love. Molly showed up on time the morning we had to leave. Holly warmed up to her right away and we had no worries about Jingles. Molly stayed in contact with photos and updates while we were gone. It was such a load off our minds knowing that both Jingles and Holly were very well taken care of. Thank you Molly!! We would definitely use Molly again the next time we have to leave Jingles and Holly.”


About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. My friends and family always ask me to check in on, walk, or sit their pets. I am willing to house sit and stay with your pets as long as needed. I don't mind small animals like rabbits or hamsters and am willing to look after reptiles as well. I have a full time job but am available most evenings after 4pm and every weekend at any time. I can do daily check ins every day for meal times but extended care only in the evenings unless I am house sitting. I have 4 dogs who's are all crate trained. Unfortunately I do not have a yard so I am not willing to sit dogs in my own home. I am a big fan of the dog park!

“Julie is top notch. She sent us pictures and updates everyday. Made sure to let me know how much Blake ate and drank while we were gone. Our house looked exactly the way we left it when we got home. I have already recommended her to family and friends. Thank you again Julie Tammy, Scott and Blake ❤️”


“Shanon did a great job watching my dogs. She made sure medicine was provided on time and didn't miss a beat, while constantly providing love and attention to my dogs. She stayed with them and ensured regular check in for potty breaks, hugs and kisses. Shanon provided pictures and great communication throughout! I will certainly use her again.”


“I had never left my 2 older dogs with anyone besides friends or family before. Alexis was able to fill in at the last minute, and she took great care of my dogs! Both of my dogs are sweet but a little neurotic, but Alexis was a pro. She left the house clean and kept me up to date while I was away.”


“Doris was amazing! She went above and beyond by disposing of a snake on our back deck before the puppy could get to it - that’s excellent service! My dogs were very happy and she sent photos. I’ll be using her again for sure!”


“Kyle really came through for my girls and I in a pinch. Their regular sitter was not available for a weekend beach trip I had planned and we put our trust in another awesome human. He showed up for a meet and greet and my spicy, anxious ridden rescue took to him fairly quickly. We were all happy he was able to stay overnight. My girls usually dont do well with being left alone more than one night. I had updates when I needed and I came home to my place the way I left it. Would definitely use Kyle again.”


About: I love animals of all kinds and look forward to getting to know your unique pet! My first animal friends were cats, but my circle quickly grew to include snakes, then dogs, and more recently other invertebrates like spiders and scorpions! While I don't have personal experience caring for birds, I am an avid bird watcher and would love to learn how to take care of an indoor feathered friend. I have experience with young pets, old pets, and pets with chronic illness. I have a very flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends. Late morning, afternoon, and evenings preferred. I can accommodate single or multi-night pet/house-sitting. I understand all animals have unique needs and personalities and I look forward to learning how best to care for your pet in your home!!

“Desire was absolutely fabulous!!! My pup just came home a week ago and she was able to take great care of our energetic little guy! Not being potty trained and in a new environment, she was able to keep him calm, provide updates of him and was very professional! Desire is GREAT!!! ?”


“If you have a GSD, hire Kat! She is wonderful. I came home to a happy pup, and it was clear that Kat knew how to respond to and care for a high energy dog. She sent amazing pictures, and I was so happy to see how our dog responded to Kat. When I came home, not only did I find a happy dog, but a neat house with clean sheets and towels. Thank you, Kat!”



About: Animals have been a part of my life for over six decades, and caring for them brings me purpose. I've had dogs by my side my whole life, shared my home with cats, spent years riding and caring for horses, and even rescued a goose and few pigeons. I’m experienced with pets of all ages. I understand the special care they need and have hands-on experience administering medications and supporting aging pets with patience and compassion. Their comfort and well-being are always my top priorities. I also have the patience to help young animals that are still in their training phase. Now retired, I have the time and energy to devote fully to your furry (or feathered!) family members. I believe every animal deserves love, respect, and lots of attention—and that’s exactly what I provide. Whether you’re going away or just need an extra hand, you can rest easy knowing your pets are in experienced, loving hands. I am retired so I am free to assist in any way I can, no job is too small and I am always happy to help. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I take time to learn their routine, keep doors and gates secure, avoid hazards, and provide constant supervision, love, and calm, reliable care.

About: Animals are too good for humankind, so they should be treated like absolute royalty. I grew up with cats and had a small but successful dog-walking and pet-sitting business in my neighborhood growing up. I am more than happy to treat your pet as if they were my own <3 I am currently unemployed and searching for a new job, but in the meantime, outside of my rugby schedule, I am available to take care of your pets! To make sure your pet feels as comfortable as possible while you are away, I would love to learn their typical routine at home and their interests!

“Ariel did an amazing job of watching over our dogs and house while we were away. My senior dogs were relaxed and happy and she provided picture and video updates through the week. When we returned, the house was spotless and as if she had never even been here! Thank you Ariel! I highly recommend her services!”


“This was our first time using Rover and let’s just say- we hit the jackpot working with Brayden! Not only was he prompt at getting back to our initial, last minute request, he was punctual for our meet and greet. While we were away, Brayden put our worries at ease, sending descriptive photo and/or video updates of our pups. He was professional, communicative, dependable, and provided top notch care for our goodest boys. We (pups especially) are forever appreciative to have met and worked with Brayden.”


About: Hi there! I’ve been around pets since I was five—dogs, cats, and one stubborn goldfish who thought he was the boss. I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent… and yes, a certified dad joke enthusiast. You’ve been warned 😄 I walk dogs daily—sometimes even on purpose. 🐕 I promise to give your pup a paws-itively good time. And don’t worry, I never take short paws on the job. (Okay, I’ll stop… for now.) Seriously though, I treat every pet like family. Whether it’s a high-energy walk or just some company while you’re out, your furry friend will get all the attention, love, and treats (with your permission, of course) they deserve. I’m local to Limerick, dependable, and always ready to make tails wag. Book me if your dog needs a walk—or if you just want someone to laugh at bad puns with your pup. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life—I’ve been caring for pets since I was a kid, so feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and cuddle sessions are second nature. I structure my day around giving animals the attention and routine they need to stay happy and healthy. I always make time for early morning or evening walks, and I’m flexible throughout the week for drop-ins or playtime. Honestly, spending time with pets is the best part of my day—whether we’re out for a walk or just exchanging life stories (I do most of the talking, but dogs are great listeners!). If it involves paws, playtime, or poop bags—count me in. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I follow their established schedule as closely as possible—because pets thrive on routine (and frankly, so do I!). That means: • Meals served on time, just how they like it • Walks and potty breaks at their usual intervals • Playtime or cuddle time based on their energy and preferences • Any medications or special care handled exactly as directed If I’m in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s habits—whether that means a favorite window seat, sleeping arrangement, or quirky routine (yes, I’ve sung lullabies to dogs before… no judgment). I aim to make each visit feel like just another regular day for your pet—just with a new (and hopefully funny) friend filling in!

They’ve taken care of my animals quite a few times, and my dogs and cats absolutely love them! They are truly a natural when it comes to pets.

She takes and implements feedback very well.”
