“Zoey did an amazing job visiting our two cats every day for a week while we were on vacation! The cats loved her as soon as she walked in for meet and greet visit! Zoey is super responsible and very caring! Will definitely use her help again while traveling as cats seem to love having her taking care of them while we were away!”

About: Hi! I’ve been a lifelong animal lover, and I’ve had pets all my life — so I know how much pets mean to their families. My girlfriend introduced me to Rover, and since then, I’ve been all in. I currently walk up to 10 dogs a day and board around 2 dogs each month, and I truly enjoy every minute of it. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs long walks or a shy cat who just wants a quiet companion, I treat every pet like my own. I know how important trust is when it comes to pet care, and I always go the extra mile to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I’d love the chance to meet your pet and give them the care and attention they deserve! Pet care is a major part of my daily routine. I work in real estate, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of control over my time. This flexibility allows me to dedicate consistent blocks of time each day to walking dogs, doing drop-in visits, and boarding pets comfortably in my home. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust always come first. In my home, I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I make sure there are no hazards within reach, keep any unfamiliar pets separated as needed, and provide plenty of space for relaxation, play, and personal time. I follow any routines or rules you provide so your pet feels comfortable and secure—just like they would at home. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would my own. I follow all instructions closely, keep your pet’s schedule consistent, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’m always attentive to their behavior, energy levels, and comfort to make sure they’re safe and happy throughout the visit. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or quiet companionship, I’m committed to providing a trustworthy, low-stress experience for both you and your pet.
“Absolutely recommend Rebeca! You can tell she really cares about dogs and loves what she does. My dog Snoopy has anxiety & is very shy at first but he felt at ease with her as soon as he met her during the meet and greet. She was so gentle, patient & sweet with him right away. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. I will def be booking with her again!”
About: I love animals. Growing up with pets of all kinds I learned to appreciate them and recognize their needs. I know the importance of bonding with them and find great joy in forming that bond. I did domestic care for four years and my primary job was tending to the animals. I am trustworthy and caring and I will put the needs of your pet first. Every time. I have made pet care my priority. I presently work full time in pet car. I also love pet photography and offer that as a service I am available on a drop-in basis and I can make myself available for overnights and extended stays as well. Whatever you need, don't hesitate to ask. I have cleared my schedule to make myself available to tend to dogs and cats full-time. I will walk your dog or simply hang out with your pet, whichever you need. I will build a trust with you, and your pet will know. I look forward to meeting you. I am very conscientious and responsible. I lost my own dog of 14 years and this has opened the door for me to be able to tend to your dog or cat. I can only offer the same loving care that I showed my own dog.
“When booking for a boarding weekend, neither Lauren and I were sure whether our cats would be a good fit for a weekend boarding stay. She was more than willing to be flexible and try a one night boarding stay to test out if a longer weekend stay would work. Lauren was friendly, attentive, caring to my cat. Her home was welcoming for my pet. She provided photos. Thank you Lauren for trying a one night trial run!”
About: We've had dogs and cats in our family for years and miss hearing the patter of paws! We treat our pets well and enjoy playtimes and grooming dogs. Either my son or I are home to be with your pet. I work part time and my son is here when I work. He is working on his master's in business and loves to walk and play with the dogs. We do not have any pets of our own at present. This is a pet friendly home and yard on a quiet cul de sac. We dog sit other family members pets at time. Dogs are welcome in most rooms of the house.
About: Hi! I’m Cornelia, a lifelong animal lover, dedicated cat mom, and experienced pet sitter! 🐾 My passion for animal care began long before I started offering professional pet-sitting services. I initially pursued veterinary sciences in college, and caring for animals has remained an important part of my life ever since. As the proud mom of my beloved cat, Nebula, I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’ve spent years caring for my own feline companions and have experience providing pet sitting, dog walking, and attentive in-home care for other families. I’m currently completing my bachelor’s degree online through Western Governors University, which allows me the flexibility to spend plenty of quality time with the animals in my care. Whether your pet enjoys interactive playtime, long walks, quiet companionship, or endless cuddles, I adapt my approach to their individual personality, needs, and routine. I also welcome extended house-sitting stays and holiday bookings! I understand that being away from your pets and home can be stressful, so I prioritize open communication, regular photo updates, and maintaining a safe, comfortable environment. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. My goal is simple: to make your pets feel loved, secure, and cared for while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾 I’m currently completing my bachelor’s degree online through Western Governors University, which gives me a highly flexible schedule and allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the week! Because my coursework is completed remotely, I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as overnight and extended house-sitting stays. I especially enjoy spending quality time with pets who appreciate companionship throughout the day. I’m also available for holiday bookings and longer stays, and I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents to maintain their pets’ established routines. 🐾 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! 🐾 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow their established feeding schedules, exercise routines, household guidelines, and any special care instructions. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in familiar surroundings, so I strive to maintain a calm, clean, and consistent environment. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, and energy levels, and I respect each animal’s individual personality and boundaries. I also take home security seriously, ensuring doors and windows are secured and your home is treated with care and respect. I provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family members are safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention!
About: I have had cats, dogs, and fish for the past 15 years. I have boarded, walked, and sat many animals including the ones listed above. I have also done feedings and administering medications. I always like to get detailed notes and a walk through of the care you need so the pets are well taken care of throughout my time with them. I am currently open to any times and days. I am in school and am doing it completely online and asynchronous. I can work with you separately to figure out the best schedule. I am always wanting a walk through and detailed sheet of paper describing schedules and everything I need to know. I will also send frequent updates including pictures. I have administered medications before and ask to be shown how to administer so they don’t miss a day.
“Curtis is a wonderful sitter! Super responsive, fantastic with cats, and goes the extra mile. Lessened the stress of travel by knowing my cat was in good hands, and the pictures I he sent were great!”
About: Lifelong dog owner and experienced cat caregiver. Proud dog mom to my rescue, Poncho. I’ll provide loving, dependable care, updates, and plenty of attention every visit. My schedule is currently more flexible than usual since my recent work contract ended, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and can often accommodate last-minute requests. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love being able to provide dependable, attentive care for pets while giving their owners peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine always come first. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and any special requests. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Although my senior dog passed away in January and I don’t currently have pets at home, I’ve volunteered with a local cat shelter for the past four years. That experience has strengthened my skills caring for animals with different personalities, needs, and comfort levels. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or senior, I’ll provide patient, loving, and reliable care.
About: Used to have my own dog (also cats when I was younger). Now I love to play with and take care of the pets of my friends, family and neighbors! Excited to care for your animal :) Currently on break for the summer so I have a lot of flexibility when I am in town to go for walks, hang out or extended stay care. I will be respectful of your space and make sure your animal feels comfortable in their environment. Let me know what your pet needs and I will do my best to accommodate.
About: Throughout my life I have had a wide range of pets. I have had a couple dogs, cats, some rabbits, and a snake at one point. I spent a good part of my youth riding and caring for horses. I love all animals and want to do my best to assist you in caring for your beloved pet. I am currently in the mental health field and would like to walk dogs on the side for extra money and the extra cuteness of course! I will care for your pet however I am instructed to do so, but overall just keeping your pet happy, safe, and occupied for the time you are gone.
“Wafae took such good care of our kitty while we were gone. She was communicative and thoughtful, and even made an extra effort to stay the night with our cat to make sure she could do the last feeding before we got home. We will definitely book her again and would recommend!”
About: I have helped care for many friends and family’s furry friends over the last few years. Feeding them while they are away, pet sitting, taking them on walks, giving them all the pets and cuddles, bathroom breaks, etc. I am here to keep your furry friend active, healthy, and entertained while you are away while also providing updates throughout the duration of your vacation. As a college student at Loyola, I structure my schedule carefully so I can provide attentive and reliable care for pets. My classes are primarily in the mornings and early afternoons, allowing me to dedicate my afternoons, evenings, weekends, and school breaks to pet care. My availability: Monday & Friday: Available after 1:25 PM Tuesday & Thursday: Available after 3:25 PM Wednesday: Not available Weekends: Available Please keep in mind that I rely on the train for transportation, so I need to account for travel time to and from your location when scheduling walks, drop-ins, or house sitting. I plan my schedule in advance to make sure pets receive regular walks, playtime, feeding, exercise, and plenty of attention. I prioritize being dependable and making sure each pet receives the care and attention they need. When caring for your furry friends, I’ll always take extra precautions to ensure their safety. Before leaving, I’ll do a quick check around your home to make sure nothing is left out that your pup or cat could get into, and I’ll inspect the backyard to ensure the fence is secure with no gaps for escape. As a proud pet parent to two small pups, one larger sized dog, one medium-sized pup, and an elder cat who are my absolute world, I understand how important it is for your pets to feel loved and safe. I promise to care for your fur baby as if they were my own—showering them with the same attention, affection, and care. If you have any questions or special requests, please don’t hesitate to reach out—I’m always happy to help!

Katie did a wonderful job with my kitty! She was very nice and easy to communicate with and followed all instructions with no issues. I really appreciate her going the extra mile to make sure my cat was comfortable and well taken care of. I would absolutely hire Katie again and highly recommend her if you’re looking for a cat sitter!
Beyond grateful that I connected with Lauren and Lauren, and they could help with our cat while our entire family traveled together. Communication is always quick, clear, and helpful. They flagged every visit, and kept me updated with all the details from each house visit for our cat. Will absolutely keep them at the top of the list for any future needs!
Ella came through for us on short notice and took very good care of our new kitten. We were nervous to leave her and Ella eased all of that with notes, pictures and regular affirmation that all was well. She seemed to enjoy her visits with our Maya which comforted our hearts and minds. Thank you, Ella!
