About: I’ve had numerous cats, dogs, birds and a rabbit! I love animals and the unconditional love they give in return. I would love to have the opportunity to take care of your babies while you are gone and give you the piece of mind you are looking for. I’m retired and have plenty of time to play and check on your fur baby! I adore animals and will love yours as much as I love my own! Currently I am offering services in your home only as I have a high energy puppy in mine. If your dog also is high energy and wants/craves stimulation with a like minded pup, I’d be more than happy to see how they get along! My home has a fenced in yard as well as a doggie door, and my dogs go on numerous walks per day.

“Jane was so amazing, caring and meticulous with caring for our 2 dogs (one of which is a senior dog). She sent us detailed updates, photos and videos which giving us peace of mind when we were away on vacation. She left our house cleaner than the way we left it. I am so happy we found a great caretaker for our pups after many failed attempts. Jane was our saving grace and we look forward to using her again! If you would like to hear more about our sit I'm happy to be a referral, she was that good!”

“Kat was amazing with my two big dogs. We have an Australian Shepherd and German Shepherd and can be a lot. Kat made this process so simple. She came for a meet and greet and my dogs (and kids) liked her right away. While we were away, Kat stayed with them in our home. We got a lot of updates and pictures. We came home to a clean house and very happy dogs. Now we can’t wait to go on vacation again, since we know we don’t have to worry about the doggies!”

“Julia was great with our puppy! Highly recommend!”

“I am so lucky to have found Phaedra, I had so many reservations about hiring someone, mainly because I didn’t want a stranger in my home but she really went above and beyond in making sure this was a seamless process. From the beginning, with the meet and greet portion, it was very clear that Phaedra knew what she was doing when it came to dogs. She gave a lot of advice, was super patient and listened to whatever I would be expressing. During the time I was gone she kept in contact giving tons of updates to with photos and a video which was very comforting. I am very happy and grateful!!!”

“Caitlyn was very communicative and my cat loved her! I came home to my apartment clean and my cat relaxed. Would absolutely recommend Caitlyn to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Cynthia watched my pup overnight and took such good care of him. I felt at ease knowing he was not alone and with someone who genuinely likes dogs (even old cranky ones like mine). Thank you so much Cynthia!!”

“Amanda was amazing! She took such great care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time. I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about Lexi. My pup loved her right away- highly recommend!”

Victoria K.

“Juan is an amazing person. I am grateful to have him interact with my baby (Rick). He is really good with animals, very understanding, kind, responsible, friendly, and easy going. From the first time he interacted with my dog, I knew all will be well, because my dog was calm. Rick (my dog) is looking forward to future visit. I would highly recommend Juan.”

About: I have three dogs of my own, so caring for animals is a consistent and structured part of my daily routine. I prioritize long, intentional walks, enrichment, and balanced play to support both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats, and comfortable with a wide range of sizes, breeds, and temperaments. With dogs, I’m familiar with everything from small companion breeds to larger, more energetic dogs. With cats, I understand the importance of respecting their space, routines, and comfort levels. In both cases, I pay close attention to body language and behavioral cues so I can adapt my care to each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience supporting animals with separation anxiety by providing a calm presence, consistency, and reassurance so they feel secure while their owners are away. I focus on creating a stable, predictable environment that helps reduce stress and build trust. Reliability, patience, and consistency are central to my care. I take time to understand each pet’s routine and reinforce positive behaviors during walks and visits, always aiming to maintain the structure and comfort they are used to at home. I’ve been around animals my entire life and bring both intuition and responsibility to every booking. My goal is simple: to provide safe, attentive, and genuinely caring support so your pets feel comfortable, understood, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I already care for my own dogs every day. I’m used to structuring my schedule around consistent walks, feeding, playtime, and general care, so it’s already built into how I plan my days. I have full-day availability and a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of needs throughout the week, including dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I’m able to adjust my day based on each pet’s routine so they receive consistent, reliable care at the times they’re used to. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight house sitting, I prioritize being present, dependable, and attentive. My goal is to maintain each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible while providing calm, consistent care throughout the day or stay. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, respect, and maintaining a calm, familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any specific instructions provided, to ensure consistency and comfort. I am very attentive to each pet’s behavior and body language, which helps me respond appropriately to their needs and ensure they feel safe and understood. For pets that may experience anxiety, I focus on providing a steady, reassuring presence and minimizing disruption to their normal routine. I also provide updates as needed so owners feel informed and at ease throughout my care. I treat every home with care and responsibility, making sure to keep the space clean, secure, and exactly as I found it, while being mindful of safety at all times, including doors, leashes, and any specific household guidelines. My goal is to create a stable, trustworthy environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for, and owners feel confident that both their home and their pet are in reliable hands.

“Ryan was totally wonderful with Knuckles. Knuckles loved him and they bonded instantly.He kept me updated and sent alot of pictures which I loved getting, He even stayed an extra hour thinking I was going to be home to relieve him. I couldn't ask for a more conscientious pet sitter for my furbaby! Thank you Ryan! Knuckles looks forward to seeing you again!!!”

“Keoma was great during a long vacation. She helped to facilitate several package deliveries as well that were unexpected. We had also only been living in this property for a few weeks so was further forced to navigate some repair work we were having done while taking care of our dog. Cannot stress enough her professionalism and response time while we were away. She also helped take care of our dog by adjusting his food when he was feeling a bit unwell early on in the trip. Finally, our flight home rerouted and we had to spend an extra night away. Keoma stepped up quickly and was able to issue us another booking and stay an extra night, all taken care of and discussed before we even left the tarmac. If you’re anxious pet parents like us, then just go with Keoma and be fully assured.”

“Kristen was a special find for us on Rover when we had an unexpected, urgent need. We could not have been happier, and our dogs were very well cared for. It was a perfect match.”

Cynthia B.

“John did an amazing job taking care of our two labs for eight days! He treated our girls like his own. He was excellent with her multiple medical issues, including, my girls, diabetes, which requires injectable insulin twice a day. He sent us constant updates multiple times a day, which included photos and video! He was so respectful of staying in our home and left it clean and tidy after his visit. I highly recommend him- he gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our family dream vacation!”

Breanne E.

“Oswald was so incredibly helpful to me and my dog, Bear! Since Bear has mobility challenges, I enrolled him in rehab for physical therapy. Not only did Oswald help me with the lifting and carrying of Bear, he even generously drove us to and from the rehab center. His time, care, and attention meant a lot to me and is deeply appreciated. Thank you so much!”

Selvi S.

“Alec was amazing! Incredibly attentive and our dog Mabel absolutely loved him. Alec cared for Mabel for a little over a week and provided constant communication and pics so we knew she was being well cared for. I can not recommend Alec enough!”

Nick D.

“As expected, Imani took great care of Lucky and Shelby! We came back to two happy pups and had peace of mind our entire trip knowing they were in great hands.”
