“Love her! Jill takes such good care of my cats. She takes time to hang out with them not just feed and clean up. Always leaves a daily note and photos, which is reassuring when you are far from home.”
“Kelly did a great job with our senior cat who has special food and insulin needs. She is super responsive and reliable! I will definitely book Kelly again next time we travel.”
“Wow wow wow! Ali did such a wonderful job with our two cats while we were gone for the weekend. She gave us detailed reports for each check-in and took many pictures which were greatly appreciated! So glad we found Ali and she is our first choice for our cats in the future :)”
“Joy did a fantastic job taking care of our cats. She kept us updated about anything and everything. All of our cats enjoyed having g her around and would certainly have her watch them again.”
About: My family has had spaniels and muts for my entire life. I adopted my own dog at 21 years old, and he is about to turn 9 years old in February. My fiancé and I also got a second dog last year and she is 2. We just moved here from Arkansas in 2024 and we have loved going to Fair Ridge Park where there is a big off leash portion of the park. While I check in or walk your dog, they will have my full attention and care. I have house, dog, and cat sat many times and each client was very pleased with how much attention I was able to give. I’m up for trips to the dog park, sending photo updates, and giving lots of pets to your furry friend. I will love your pet as if they are my own! I am mostly free mornings and weekends! I am a graduate student and have most of my class and work on Monday, thursday, and Fridays. I am free most weekends any time. I have cared for senior dogs and have experience administering medications, changing doggy diapers, and ensuring frequent potty breaks. I make sure to understand what the dog’s usual routine is and try to stick to it so they feel comfortable and safe.
“Brandi is the best! She took notes on what needed to be done during the drop in and made sure to do them all (and some!). She was great about taking some photo updates and giving Copernicus plenty of attention before leaving. So happy we found her to watch our furbaby while we were gone!”
“Savannah was amazing!! We trust her with our fur babies! My dog loved her so much that we decided to book Savannah for all our needs through rover! Very respectful and trustworthy!”
“Kelly is amazing!! She is prompt and great at communication! She gives the boys all the lovins and they love her! We have used her several times and will continue to do so :)”
“Paige is amazing. We hit her up to watch our cat over memorial day weekend with less than a week notice and she was quick to respond and to come hang out with our cat! We will 100% be asking for her cat sitting services again!”
“So communicative!! If I need to board my cat again, will definitely be requesting her!! She made this whole experience of me having to board my cat for the first time so much easier!”
“Jessica is great and so sweet! She came at the time requested, did all the things we asked and took time to socialize with our cat (who isn't always the most social). We trust her with our pets and would definitely ask her to sit for us again!!”
“First time hiring Christina and we were glad we did after her first visit. She took great care of three cats and provided excellent daily feedback with lots of pictures. She’s already been hired for another visit.”
“Cat did a fantastic job with the drop in visits. She was punctual, spent some time playing them, and had no issues with our most high maintenance cat’s medication. Most importantly, the cats really seemed to liked her. I would highly recommend her and plan on hiring her again for any future visits.”
“Emily has taken care of our dog for the past few months, sometimes several nights a week while I’ve been at work. I couldn’t say better things about her and her professionalism. She is the best caregiver you could ask for when it comes to your furry friends. I HIGHLY recommend her and her services.”
“Jenee did an amazing job taking care of our cats. Our Garfield and Morticia were always excited to see her and get pets. Our cats really enjoyed her company. She even went above and beyond to even feed and water the outside feral cats that like to take up residence on our porch. Next time we go out of town we will definitely be more than happy to have Jenee watch our cats. They will be in good hands.”
About: I bring a unique blend of patience, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals that helps me quickly build trust with both pets and their people. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs whether that means keeping a playful pup busy or making sure a senior dog feels safe and comfortable. Here’s a bit about my experience: • Puppy care, leash walking, and reinforcing basic commands • Senior dogs, with gentle handling, slower-paced walks, and medication routines • Special needs pets, providing calm, detail-oriented care • Administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable) • Multi-pet households, managing dynamics so everyone gets love and attention I always prioritize communication I’ll send regular updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own, creating a calm and loving environment while you’re away. I’m planning to transition out of my hourly job and become a full-time sitter while in school. Balancing classes and work can be a lot, but pet care has always been something that brings me joy and helps me decompress. I carefully plan my schedule to make sure I’m fully present and attentive with every pet I care for. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I’m committed to providing consistent, loving, and reliable care that fits both your pet’s needs and my routine. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment that matches each pet’s routine and comfort level. In my home, I keep things clean, pet-proofed, and stocked with toys, cozy spaces, and outdoor access for breaks and playtime. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific habits or routines. I make sure pets feel secure and loved, whether they’re in familiar surroundings or visiting mine.
About: I have had my own pets since I was a young child. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, neighbors, and church members pets over the years. I love dogs and kitties and believe they deserve to be well taken care of. They depend on us to be good to them and are at our mercy. If they are mistreated they can't say anything. This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic! I am within walking distance of our city bike/walking trail for long doggie walks.
“Love having Kyleen visit, Bob. When I'm out of town I can focus on the reason I'm out of town instead of being I'm not worried about my cat. Her communication with me is the best and I can tell she truly cares about my kitties.”
About: I am a recent empty nester. My son is in now a sophomore in college and lives near Nashville, TN. My niece and her doggie lived with me for approx. 10 months while saving up for a place of their own and they recently left so it is just me now. I own a condo with lots of common ground behind me. I dog sit often for family and friends (including the one shown in the pic). I work from home so I am able to take them out as much as needed and love to take them on walks so we both benefit from the exercise. I will follow your advice and requests related to schedule, feedings, or whatever rules you wish to enforce.
