“Once again, Debbie fails to disappoint. She is timely with her drop-in visits and great at communicating with us during each visit. When we returned home after several days away, our home was just as we left it and our four cats were happy and well fed. Thanks, Debbie!”


About: I've had the pleasure of being a dog sitter for several families, and I love it! Growing up with dogs has given me a special bond with them, and I adore all animals. Whether it’s going for long walks, or just snuggling on the couch, I enjoy every moment spent with furry friends! I work full-time from 8 AM to 4 PM during the week, but I’m more than happy to take care of pets on weekends and after my work hours on weekdays. When it comes to pet sitting, I promise to prioritize the safety and well-being of your furry family members above all else. You can trust that I will provide a secure environment, follow any specific care instructions, and maintain open communication with you throughout the process.


About: Took a hiatus from Rover, but am back ready to love on your pets! ** Dog walking/sitting services are paused for the season** I have loved dogs and cats ever since I was a little girl. Everyday with a fur baby is a better day. In the past I have cat and dog sat for friends and family to ensure their fur baby is happy and healthy so their fur parents can enjoy their vacation without worries. During my free time I find myself on Instagram and TikTok scrolling cute animal videos, as well as volunteering for the local pet shelter. My goal is to make sure that while you're away your fur-baby is well taken care of and as happy as can be despite missing their hooman. Therefore these are my non-negotiables to ensure that both parties are set up for success: - Meeting you and your cat/dog in person beforehand with you on-site to ensure your cat/dog is aware I'm not a random person showing up in it's territory. - Detailed instructions and info on your cat/dog and their needs are shared; whether its something big or small, to me it's important. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to meeting you and your fur friend! My current availability is Monday-Saturday 9a-630p EST for drop in visits, if other times are needed, please discuss with me ahead of time. Thank you!! Services I include: - clean food/water bowls - refill food/water bowls - clean litter box - cuddle + play time - brushing - watering plants if needed (I'm a part time plant-mom myself) - updates on how your cat/dog is doing during my visit - collecting the mail if needed

“Karlos has been a lifesaver! He’s consistent, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I appreciate how he took the time to really get to know Piper and her daily routine during the meet and greet. He asked thoughtful, relevant questions and made me feel really comfortable trusting him with her :) Karlos is also very considerate. He shares lots of photos of Piper which I truly appreciate! I’ve seen him walking my neighbors’ dogs as well and he seems to have a genuine connection with all the animals he works with. Would definitely recommend! Thank you for taking such good care of Piper!”


“Diane walked our 10 year old Husky for the first time today. He’s 80lbs of fluff and we knew he was well taken care of when we came home to his happy calm state. Seeing the photos made us feel comfortable that he was in the best of hands. We look forward to having Diane walk Bruno once again.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets. My English is not perfect, but I try my best every day to improve and communicate clearly. I truly believe that love is the universal language—and that’s what I give to every pet I care for. I work flexible hours with Uber, so I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. I’m available during the week at almost any time, and I’m also open on weekends. Just let me know what works best for you! I live in a small home, so I can only host small dogs—no large dogs, unfortunately. But I’m happy to visit your home or walk your dog with care and attention. I always create a calm, loving environment and treat every pet like family.

About: I've taken care of dogs and other animals since I was 8 years old. I currently have a fish tank, plants, a turtle, and two dogs. I groomed dogs for 4 years and was in animal care for 2 years. I've trained my two dogs, one three years old and the other a puppy. I've taken care of all sorts of dog breeds with various personality during my time as a groomer. Taking many tests and modules to stay updated on dog safety and care. This has prepared me to inspect the dog's health and condition and also be keener on any abnormalities. While the animal care helped me on what procedures to take when a situation has occurred. I will continue educating myself on better practices to make sure they get the best treatment. I am planning on being certified on dog CPR (this may have been done by the time you read this). Some background about me. I really started to get into taking care of pets when I was introduced to my first pet fish, and it didn't go well the first time as I had no experience as an 8-year-old. That's when I started to do research before, I accepted any pets. When I was ready for another fish, I got into the hobby of building aquariums and was constantly trying to build the perfect environment for them. Once I had a sustainable tank, I then moved on to taking care of hamsters. This is where I learned the importance of safety measures and security as the hamsters were great escape artist. Finally, when I had my own place, I adopted my first dog. This is when I really learn everything that dog sitting, and dog boarding wasn't able to, because I took care of mostly older dogs and fully trained dogs. Then I got another addition to the family, a puppy and learn even more things. Throughout all this, I had also taken care of friends and family cats. I even had to save a pet freshwater turtle from being released into the ocean because the pet parent wasn't able to continue supporting her. I still have her to this day. I'm currently working on a project which doesn't require me to be anywhere but home, so I will be able to take on any task 24/7. I have a fenced yard, and two doors before leaving from the house. I always keep an eye on the dogs and when I can't I have a large dog playpen and a large crate to limit them from doing anything dangerous. I have a camera in the yard and inside the house to keep an eye on them if I'm in another room. All sharp objects are placed in cabinets and drawers in my home. I have two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby happy and entertained. I have a grooming lead to help me assist the dog to go to certain places if necessary. I have dog water bottles for long walks. For small dogs I have a dog backpack in case they get tired on a walk or if the streets have hazardous material or is very hot. For large dogs I have a wagon. I will make sure to get a detailed note from you so that I know the best course of action for each situation. With every problem I will make sure to find a proper solution before it happens.

“You truly couldn’t ask for a more kind, loving, gentle human to take care of your beloved furry friend. Melanie has always put everyone in her life before herself- and that includes multiple dogs she’s had in her life as well. She has watched my family dog while we were on vacation and every time she comes to my current house she greets my dog and guinea pig before me. She will prioritize the safety of your pet every single time she is responsible for them. You can trust her fully and your pet(s) will love her and sense she is a good human once they meet her.”
