“I had the pleasure of working with Casie sitter for my cat, Storm, and she was absolutely phenomenal. From the start, she was well-prepared and proactive in her approach to caring for Storm. Her communication was clear and consistent, and her knowledge about cat care was evident throughout. I felt completely at ease knowing Storm was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Casie to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


“Erin is an outstanding dog walker! She is incredibly professional, flexible, and always willing to work with you to accommodate your pet’s needs. Recently, I had an unexpected work trip and needed same-day pet walking. Erin didn’t hesitate to step in and help. She is so sweet and treats my dog as if he were her own, showing genuine care and attention every time. I truly appreciate her reliability and kindness, and I would recommend Erin to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to take care of their pets.”


“Susan did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were away. We felt totally confident in her ability to care for our pets. I highly recommend Susan for your pet care needs!”


“I can’t recommend Victoria enough! From the start, her communication was excellent and she made sure to schedule a meet & greet beforehand, which immediately put my mind at ease. She asked thoughtful, thorough questions about my cats and their routines, and I truly appreciated how attentive and prepared she was. My two cats, Luca and Bandit, are usually very shy with new people, but they absolutely loved Victoria and warmed up to her right away. She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable, I could tell they were in good hands the entire time. I will definitely be hiring her again. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, caring, and detail-oriented cat sitter, Victoria is the one!”


About: NOTE: BASED OUT OF BURLINGTON, VT FOR THE COLLEGE SEASON I’ve owned and cared for dogs, cats, and everything in-between for as long as I can remember. From pit-bulls to terriers, handicapped chickens to one eyed kittens and animals with at least 8 legs, i’ve seen it all. Apart from caring for my own dogs, cats, and other pets over the years, I did freelance petsitting and dog walking in and around my neighborhood for around seven years, ranging from dog walks while the owner was at work, to late night cat feedings and prescription medication administration, to trying to give a rabbit a bath. I have a high level of experience caring for both puppies/kittens and elderly dogs and cats, having worked to foster puppies and kittens with my local ASPCA for nearly a decade as well as helped raise and train one of my family dogs, and care for my elderly, disabled dog in her later years. I also have background training with the ASPCA regarding animal safety (specifically reactive or defensive dogs) and basic dog and cat body language, crucial aspects of keeping everyone involved healthy and happy! I’m currently a college student home for the summer- my schedule is very open and very flexible, depending on the individual needs of the animal. I can match whatever level of energy your pet needs within the home- whether it be constant cuddles and attention, hours of playtime, or just an omniscient hand filling the food bowl and grabbing the leash! I’m comfortable administering oral or topical medications, able to control and crate dogs if the need arises, and (i’d like to think) i’ve learned some pretty good strategies to stop unwanted barking late at night over the years. I value the mental and physical comfort of the animal i’m caring for first and foremost, whether that means hands on attention or a more quiet, calm approach to time spent with your pet. I’m willing to care for and spend time with shy or reactive dogs as long as they’re within my size range. Having owned both a very senile, timid dog and a very reactive, defensive dog, it’s important to me that they receive the amount of care and attention in the home they deserve :)

About: As a former dog owner, I’ve played a crucial role in nurturing our furry friends. Meeting all essential needs- and more- I have skills in training, caring for, and loving animals as they deserve. Coming from a pet-loving family, my experience dates back to my formative years. I am a graduate student and therapist, with enough flexibility and autonomy within my schedule to treat your pet with TLC! Thursdays-Mondays are my most flexible times, depending upon the service requested. Let’s chat and figure out what works best so your pet is cared for when you are away. I live in a pet-friendly community with ample outdoor space to go on walks. The phrase, mi casa es su casa, applies to all of my guests - even my 4-legged friends. Your pet is allowed to enjoy the space fully, and can also be crated per the owner’s request based on the dog’s usual routines.

About: I have had a dog my entire life and have taken care of many other dogs including in home sitting, walking, and drop ins. I have also taken a dog training class, so I have experience training puppies. I work full time but get off at either 4:30 or 5:30 so I have plenty of time at night to come over for a visit and walk! I have plenty of greenery outside my apartment for walks and places to meet other dogs as well. However, I am not offering in home service.

“Janine is excellent!! There’s a reason she has such rave reviews. She’s checked in on my dog for a few weekends now and when Janine watches her I know she’s in good hands.”


“I really appreciated Emily taking on Benji at the last minute. She was incredibly responsive from the start and worked to ensure she and Benji could get a long for a long weekend before accepting the job. Emily checked in with me constantly and was very flexible when we decided Benji required more of her time than we'd initially planned for. When I arrived home, I could see that Benji had been given all the love and attention i would have provided him. I am very thankful to have found Emily and plan to use her on a regular basis.?”


About: Hello! My name is Maddie. I’m a marine scientist and current law student who happens to love terrestrial animals too, especially dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, ages, personalities, and temperaments. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats, personally and walking for Wag. As a previous dog owner, I know what a good walk or a session of tug-of-war can do for a pup! I can walk or run with your dog or just hang out for a while, whatever they need. I have two dogs of my own and look forward to caring for your pet as if they were my own. I’m a student living in St. Pete and am open to walking, drop-ins, and overnight stays. As a graduate student, I have a flexible work schedule and can pop in often. I look forward to meeting and playing with your pet. I’m currently a full time student who takes classes primarily in the evenings. I look forward to walking dogs and dropping in to visit during mornings and afternoons! I care for pets in my home and my clients’ homes by providing exercise, enrichment, and lots of love! I believe all three of those things are necessary for a happy and healthy pet!

“Miranda took great care of my 9yo lab mix, Milo. She is super and sweet and made us feel very comfortable. She was communicative and took lots of pics!”


About: I’m the kind of person who stops to pet every dog I see (and yes, I remember their names). I’ve been caring for animals my entire life — from tiny kittens to senior dogs. I’m patient, playful, and good with all ages and temperaments. Whether your pet is full of zoomies or prefers a slow stroll, I’ll match their pace and make sure they feel loved every step of the way. Expect happy tails, fun adventures, and plenty of photo updates while you’re away! I'm currently working part-time on a set-schedule so I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks, plus weekend care. Whether you need a last-minute walk or regular weekly visits, I do my best to fit your and your pet’s routine — early risers, night owls, and everything in between. Just send me a message, and we’ll make it happen! I respect your space and your pet’s routine — keeping their environment clean, comfortable, and familiar. I make sure they always have fresh water, the right food at the right time, and lots of attention. I send regular photo and text updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and safe while you’re away. And I'm not afraid to clean up any "accidents."

About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes. My dad grew up training dogs and my mom can’t live without them. Currently I have a senior chihuahua who I rescued when he was surrendered to the shelter at 10 years old. He has been the best addition to the family. Growing up I watched neighbors dogs and in college I babysat my friend’s dogs often. I do not have experience training puppies but I do have experience with senior dogs and dogs that require more medical attention than others. I am currently a part-time student and on the part-time job search so I have plenty of time during the week to care for additional pets. I live in an apartment so I don’t have a backyard but there is plenty of green space outside my apartment and a trail. I have a senior dog who is very friendly and used to interacting with small and large dogs because my family has dogs of all sizes and personality. My goal in caring for other dogs is to not disturb their routine. My dog for example is happy to sleep the day away but an active dog would need more activity and enrichment which I’m happy to provide.

About: I have a soft spot for all furry animals, including those not. Having patience is just something that I obtain naturally. I’m some situations, Dogs can become overstimulated or even upset/depressed. Identifying the over-stimuli or sad situation can allow me to empathize & understand how to approach your pet. I am available to sit your pups on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursday, Fridays, Saturdays & or Sundays. Practically any day & any time of the week. I follow all reasonable expectations that my clients request of me for their pets in their homes. I make sure all pets are attended too emotionally & physically. Walked, fed, hydrated, & played with.

About: *** NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS *** Ever since I was born there’s been a dog in my house, so I’ve grown up learning how to care for and interact with them. At six years old I began taking care of neighbors, friends, and family’s pets, especially dogs. I have some experience in training, but for the most part I love to walk, cuddle, play with, clean, feed, and otherwise care for any and every dog I meet. I also spent time working at a dog daycare and park and learning their behaviors and better how to care for and stimulate them. No matter the shyness of a dog, I have yet to meet one I could not befriend. I care for my family dog daily, ensuring he gets his meals, outside time, and as much love as possible. Whenever I have free time, I always try to spend it around him or other pets. I have a fenced in yard, and live near two parks with lots of walking trails to engage your dog with the world around them. I’m happy to go to your dog as well, as my dog can be somewhat nervous around other dogs. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or space, I’ll be there to help support them and meet their needs.

“Meg is the BEST! Not sure where to begin - so here goes: Response time: She contacted me in under a half hour even while she was away for the weekend on a get-away. She answers every e-mail in a timely way and also asks tons of questions so you know she is well prepared. Tech support: The Rover site kept automatically tacking on an "extended stay fee" because I booked two visits in one day. She removed this after contacting support herself and updated my account before her first visit. Rates: Her rates are the BEST in the area. Persona: We scheduled a meet and greet right away - Meg has a great persona and put the whole family at ease. We have an 8 week old pup and are so in love! Meg is great with her and even brought treats to the meet & greet to establish trust from the very start. Even my step-daughter, who is normally wide-eyed and silent started talking to Meg from alone - so Meg is great with kids too! ;)”


About: We both have always taken care of dogs since young ages. I would be lying if I said our dogs don’t run the show at our house! Many friends and family rely on us to make sure their pets are getting the best treatment possible while they are away. Boarding is very stressful for the pup and we like to know that we are making a difference in putting your mind at ease about your fur baby, along with giving the pup a stress free experience. I enjoy sending text updates and photos, I would want the same for my babies! We are self employed and create our own schedules, which allows us to be home more than someone working 9-5 if we leave the house it is for very short periods. Our dogs go in and out all day, so we like to make sure we are giving your pup the same treatment whether it is in our home or at yours! We have a fenced yard along with two friendly dogs for your dog to enjoy. We are also happy to crate your pup and/or crate our own pups so your pup can have the most comfortable stay. We are extremely flexible, and can do whatever you usually do for your pet.


About: I have worked for Bark Central Doggie Daycare boarding, daycare, and training facility for 4 years where I had to handle up to 60 dogs at one time by myself. I would feed, water, bathe, give medicine, clean up after, and keep them entertained. I have learned SO much about animal behavior and my passion for dogs has only grown! I'm experienced with many types of breeds (giant and mini) and love getting to know new ones! I respect any amount of maintenance one needs for their animal because I would appreciate the same for mine! Im a 2 sport collegiate athlete who loves to be active with your dog. If the puppies are young I’d be happy to help train them as well! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend :)!

I have an Aussie Shepard (1 year) and a Mountain Fiest (14 years) and they both love her and get excited when she comes over. I would definitely trust them with her because she just has such a big heart for dogs and caring for animals.”

Charlotte D.
“Charlotte is the kind of pet sitter an owner dreams of getting. Having been watching dogs and cats since she was in elementary school for neighbors and friends, other references are available. Her love for dogs is unconditional, and her attention to their needs unwavering. Cats are respected and treated with sensitivity to their independent yet loving natures. Charlotte is not easily intimidated by pets that need lots of reassurance or pets that need a strong boundary. She will follow instructions explicitly, as she understands the importance of routine and predictability for any animal. Your home will be left in great order, no need to come back to anything but the happy greetings of your furry friends. .”
