William was absolutely the most attentive and generous rover we’ve ever had. Took great care of our cat and even helped out with trash and mail to look after our house while we were away. Highly recommend and will be sure to book again!

About: Caring for animals has been part of my life since I was a kid, from checking in on a neighbor’s pet to hosting overnight stays. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments—senior pets are especially dear to me—understanding the extra care and attention they often need. From gentle routines to specialized care, I’m experienced in making sure older pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. No matter your pet’s age or needs, I provide a calm, caring environment where they’ll feel right at home. I currently have a flexible hybrid schedule, which means plenty of time to care for your pups! Whether they need overnight boarding or just some extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I’m available for overnight stays starting at 4 PM—happy to provide a cozy, caring environment while you’re away! Your pup’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities! My apartment complex features a spacious, well-maintained dog park with a wonderful community of dogs and pet parents—perfect for social pups who love to play. But if your furry friend prefers a quieter experience, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I understand that every dog is unique, and I’m comfortable providing specialized care, whether that means crating, reinforcing training routines, managing special diets, or administering medications. Senior dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I have extensive experience caring for them. Plus, living on the first floor means easy access with no stairs—gentler on aging joints.

Arantxa always goes above expectations, she’s set such a high standard it’s such a bummer when I can’t book her. She sends the best photos and updates and that are so adorable and funny. She’ll bring in packages, tell you if something is wrong or out of the ordinary at home, and help out in so many ways with pet care and more. She’s so reliable and trustworthy I am always at ease knowing she is caring for my pets. She’s so reliable genuinely loves animals, the best pet sitter I’ve ever had!!

About: Hi I’m Kelsey! I’d love to help you with your pet(s)! I’ve been pet sitting for years and have client testimonials I’d be happy to provide you with. Your pet will be in good hands! I will go above and beyond to truly spend time entertaining your pet and brightening their day while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including reactive dogs. I absolutely love spending time with animals and will truly treat your pet like my own. Speaking of my own, I have a boxer who is the absolute light of my life. I love him so much and spoil him rotten. I’ll treat your pet the same! Something you should know about me…When I walk into a house or business with a pet present that’s the first thing I’m paying attention to regardless of why I’m there. I work from home and love going on walks every day. I’d love to take your dog(s) with me on my next walk! Or if you need someone to stop by mid-day because you’re stuck in the office and just want someone to spend some time with your pet I can do that too. I’ll bring my computer with me! Did you think I forgot about cats? Never! I’d love to check in on your cat for you while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to visit your pet soon! I work remotely full time. I’m available most of the day for drop in visits and walks! I can come over in the morning for early morning walks before it gets too hot. I can come over mid-day for a lunch break walk or drop in visit. I can come in the evenings if you have somewhere to be after work and need peace of mind that your pet will be well taken care of. I will take extra care of your pets in your home. I’ll ensure they have everything they need and extra attention while you’re away. I love a good couch cuddle moment with your pet, walks of any distance or length, and am happy to interact with them using whatever toys or things they may have to use or play with. Mental stimulation is very important for pets, especially while you’re away to help their minds and bodies relax. I can use puzzle games, slow feeders, lick mats, or any other things you have for your pet to give them mental stimulation. I take great pride in leaving a place better than I found it and I’ll be respectful of you, your pet, and your home while I’m visiting.

Kelly will treat your pet like they’re her own! I asked her to drop in a couple of times in my home to take care of my cat, Paul, while I was out of town during Thanksgiving. She was very communicative and you can tell from the pictures my spoiled cat is very happy with her.

About: My first experience with owning a puppy ( they are always puppies in my eyes) was 9 years ago when I brought home Jake my lab mix. Currently Iam with a partner who has a pitbull boxer mix who has been my baby for 5 years. For me puppies are not just a companion but also a family member that support you through tough time. They deserve every bit of happiness in the world and I want to be able to give it to them in any way possible. Even though I don't have any special training, I will love your puppy like they are my own and treat them with the highest level of respect and care. I love giving tears so I hope you don't mind that I spoil them a little bit :) I am currently working full - time and is available to take care of your puppy after 6pm. On weekends Iam available pretty much all day Saturday and Sunday unless I have prior arrangements. As of right now Iam will only be doing dog walking and drop ins. During these activities I'll make sure to pay close attention to your puppy to ensure protection and safely.

Addison is the best cat sitter this side of the Mississippi. Possibly the other too, but I don't know the cat sitters there so it's hard to say. It's incredibly easy to tell her affection for animals, and our kitty is so comfortable around her. You get a whole photo album full of cute photos every visit making you feel like a part of every step. With the level of care and communication she provides, it's almost like you never even left. A service to any pet parent worth paying extra for!
