“Neil is amazing! He was prompt, thoughtful, and detailed oriented throughout. He cared for both of my dogs and really took the time to get to know their personalities, quirks, and routine. Thank you Neil!!”

“Ariel took excellent care of our little boy! He looked so happy in her presence. She is also an excellent communicator and clearly quite responsible. She kept us informed and reassured (it was one of our first times away). HIGHLY recommend!”

“Meredith was a joy to work with! She was super attentive and gave lots of helpful updates while watching my two kitties over the holidays. She is clearly an animal lover and an all around lovely human. I also really appreciated her humor. Would def book again!”

“Steven was wonderful! He was communicative, reliable, and took excellent care of our cats. He also sent photos after each visit, which were absolutely beautiful.”

About: I have walked all kinds of dogs since I was 15. I started with Pitbulls in my neighborhood and walked all sizes since then. I went on to adopt a dog 10 years ago and now live with my fiancé who brought her own dog into our home. I will always be a dog father for the rest of my life and truly value what they mean to someone as a pet/partner and in some cases -child. I already walk my dog 3 times a day so pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Currently dog walking is my only profession as I look for work so I am completely open to accommodate any scheduling requests. Having walked many different types of dogs throughout my life, I know that each dog has different personalities and needs that must be accommodated for. Each pet has its own routine that helps make sure they are happy and healthy. One of my dogs is very good at communicating when he needs to go outside, and I can read his cues and take him out for multiple walks in quick succession. Another one of my dogs is much more of a habit former and appreciates a longer walk that tires him out and gets all his energy out of his system. I constantly check on them both emotionally and physically to make sure there are no problems with their habits or their physical bodies. I always like to make sure the dogs I take care of get to spend quality time with me either at my home or at the client's home to help relax them after or before a long walk. I never leave the house without checking they have food and water readily available, and a treat to make sure they're feeling loved and cared for.

About: I grew up with cats and later raised my own dog from 2 months old through age 11. I have also cared for feral/community cats, as well as chinchillas and hamsters over the years. Alongside pet care, I’m experienced with plant care—especially orchids—and attentive home care. As a writer and theater artist, I work with a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time writing, reading, and working quietly from home, which fits naturally with attentive pet and home care. I believe pets are happiest in familiar surroundings, so I focus on maintaining a calm, consistent, and safe environment in their home. I pay close attention to routines, instructions, feeding, plants, and household details, and I keep owners updated throughout their time away.
“Ryan was very kind and communicative; and very responsive. Our cats (including our shy cat) trust him and like him a lot. It was a pleasure working with Ryan!”

“Joyce was absolutely amazing when I went away! Checked in with me daily with updates. I have one very nervous cat that she was able to charm into playing and cuddling. Cannot recommend Joyce enough!”

“While on vacation our young pup wouldn’t stop crying when she was left alone in our beach rental. Lauren was able to help watch her the very next morning. So responsive! So sweet! So punctual! I can’t say enough good things about Lauren!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and grew up surrounded by all types of pets. I’m a responsible, patient, and caring person who understands that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different sizes and energy levels, and I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also very communicative and will keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind! I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, visits, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions and their normal routine, keep their environment clean and secure, and provide regular updates and photos. I’ll always treat your home and belongings with respect.
“Charlie is an amazing pet sitter! Highly recommend. Charlie is timely in communications, clear, concise, provides wonderful report cards with great pics. Charlie interacted with my cat during their visit. My cat was in great spirits when I returned. Charlie is responsive and trustworthy. Hope Charlie is available for our next trip.”

About: We've cared for dogs of all ages, including senior pets and energetic puppies. We are patient, reliable, and treat every pet like family. We have experience with medication administration, basic training, and understanding different temperaments. Your pet's comfort and safety are our top priorities. Pet care fits perfectly into our routine since we both work part-time and are home often. This allows us to provide consistent attention, timely walks, playtime, and lots of love throughout the day. We enjoy being active, so we’re always up for fetch, long walks, or just snuggling on the couch. Our flexible schedules also allow us to accommodate last-minute bookings or special care needs. Safety and trust are our top priorities. At our home, pets enjoy a fully fenced-in yard with plenty of grassy space to play and explore safely. We have one friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who loves making new furry friends and is gentle and playful. We always take time to understand each pet’s needs and routines.
“Sam did a great job with my two dogs. Made the effort to come meet them while I was home. Was very reliable and kept me informed of how they did during his visits. Would definitely recommend Sam!”
About: (PLEASE KEEP READING FOR LATENESS INFO AND PRICING). I USUALLY DO NOT ACCEPT LAST MINUTE BOOKINGS (24HRS OR LESS) BUT FOR A SMALL ADDITIONAL, I WILL CONSIDER IT. Hello, everyone! I am a college student who has more than 10 years of personal experience with a variety of dogs. I've raised and taken care of Rottweilers, Pitbulls, Dalmatians and Labradors in the past and currently own a 9 year old Labrador/Pitbull mix and 2 Rottweiles. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of dogs on my free time as I work out with my own. There's a big park with a dog run right next to me so your baby will always be taken care of and I also keep an AC in the living room for the hotter days. In addition to that, I have worked with dogs with separation anxiety and am very aware of the struggles dealing with that so I always make sure when I take a Rover booking, that the dog is never alone in the house. Furthermore, I have no issues sending pictures and videos of your baby as we all would like to know how our babies are doing when we are not with them. Thank you so much for taking a look at my services and feel free to book me up! FYI, I am very comfortable and very good with big and strong doggos :-). I take pleasure in giving your baby one on one time withNL NO OTHER DOGS at the same time as yours so that they can fully enjoy their time I go to school online so I am able to be with pets 24/7. I also make sure that pets do not stay alone ever while in my care. I do ask however, for clients to stick to their drop-off and pick-up times to respect my time as I respect theirs and their pets', and to avoid any late fees or extra charges. LATENESS: To accommodate for my time and services, this is the lateness , cancelation and time change policy: 3 days in advance for full refund and no additional charges for changes.

THIS WILL ONLY BE REDUCED OR WAIVED WITH A PROPERLY DOCUMENTED, UNFORSEEABLE, UNAVOIDABLE EMERGENCY, AND ULTIMATELY ALSO AT MY DISCRETION. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING. Though my dog is friendly, I have a dog cage where my dog sleeps and which separates my own from other owner's pets for safety.

About: My name is Chloe and I am excited to be your pet’s new best buddy! Connecting with animals has always been a passion of mine. I grew up with a variety of pets, from dogs to horses, chickens to chinchillas. I have worked for several farms over the years and am professionally trained in animal care for a variety of species. I am well versed in pet first aid and behavioral monitoring. I believe the best way to gain an animal’s trust is through attentive communication and positive reinforcement. You can be assured that your animals will be both safe and as happy as can be under my care. I work full time in conservation and animal care fields, so my availability is limited to week day evenings and some weekends. Please let me know what your schedule is and I will do my best to accommodate. Safety is the top priority for me when caring for pets. I am diligent about ensuring that your pet is secure and their physical and mental security is taken care of during all services with me, whether walks, house sitting or drop-ins. I advocate for open communication regarding any behavioral changes or concerns. I also require all information about a pet’s behavioral history be disclosed to me prior to booking so I can best prepare for your my and your animal’s safety.
“I booked Ellie for 3 separate hour long drop-ins to walk and feed my dog and hang out with him for a bit. I had to add a drop in last minute and she was very accommodating. My dog is anxious around new ppl and a bit quirky and Ellie was very patient and gentle with him. I left very detailed instructions as I don’t like to be away from my dog, and Ellie did a great job. She was communicative too. Appreciate her help during the holiday season! (Xmas) Would recommend and book again!”

Amanda was a great sitter! My cat has hyperthyroidism and I was worried about him going too long without medication and water(he needs to drink a lot). She followed all instructions and made sure to give him his meds. He's a grumpy cat, but they seemed to get along. Will definitely book again. Thanks Amanda!

Scott is a super fantastic new best friend for my cat, Miew. She is very happy when he comes to check on her when I'm out of town. I love that he treats her so kindly. I also appreciate that he accepted a booking with very short notice and that he communicates reliably. I definitely recommend Scott to care for your kitty.

Ash took great care of my cat, Sova! She gave not only informative but very fun updates on how she and Sova were spending time during her visits. I could tell she really enjoyed spending time with him and I felt less nervous about being away knowing that Sova was well cared for. Ash didn’t hesitate to ask questions/clarifications if needed and I appreciated that!

Zoe went above and beyond caring for both our 90-pound adult dog and our high-energy puppy! I’ve always been the type of person who is extremely nervous about leaving my dogs in someone else’s care, to the point that I’ve never hired a dog walker or pet sitter before. However, after getting our puppy and having a prior commitment that meant we’d be away from home for an extended period, we decided to take the leap and reach out to Zoe. We couldn’t be happier that we did! Zoe didn’t just meet our expectations; she completely exceeded them. She even arrived a little early to make sure she had all the information she needed for a successful visit. Throughout the entire time, she kept us updated and maintained great communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we returned home, both dogs were happy, well cared for, and properly exercised. As someone who is very particular about who I trust with my dogs, I cannot recommend Zoe enough! I would absolutely rebook with her in a heartbeat, and we’ve already started discussing our future dog-walking needs with her. Thank you so much, Zoe! We’re so grateful to have found you! ❤️

Monica is a great pet sitter for our cats. She manages the warring factions of our cats well, allowing us to leave home with peace of mind. She sends great pics, timely updates, and is very tidy and clean. She’s got top notch communication and is quite reliable. I’ve booked with her twice now and hope to continue working with her for future pet sitting needs. 10/10 recommend.

Stephanie took care of my former kitty 3some. After 2 years without any pets I thought of Stephanie again for my 2 18 month old litter mate. She takes care information seriously and has her kitty charges quickly warming up to her. I already have one more assignment for her.
