About: I have had my own dog for 14 years and walked neighbors dogs when I was growing up. Helped walk/watch friends dogs throughout college when they would be traveling. I work each week day but can watch/walk a dog morning, Lunch time, and post work. I also work close to home and can come let them out multiple times. I have a fenced in backyard with lots of grass that my dog loves playing fetch and taking a nap in the sun during the summer

“Ciara was fantastic with our two dogs and cat while we were away. She immediately put us at ease with her calm demeanor and obvious love of animals. I would gladly have her back!”


“We had a last minute trip scheduled and was in need of assistance with our dog. Robin was very helpful, caring and delight to have helping with our dog. She kept us informed of how he was doing, eating, bathroom and behavior. Helped him out with some tummy troubles. We would definitely use Robin again. This was our first time using Rover. From this experience it won’t be our last. Thanks Robin for taking such good care of our dog”


“We knew that as soon as Carla walked in the door she is the perfect person to watch our girls, JoJo and Frankie! When you’re a dog person, you can tell when someone has “dog person” vibes and Carla definitely has dog person vibes lol! We’re so happy to find her for our girls and our peace of mind when we have to be away from home!”


“Lauren was very professional and thorough during our meet and greet. She provided constant communication and pictures during her stay at my house and left it spotless. I knew my pup was in good hands and I highly recommend her!”


About: Through my own dog, bear, I have developed a care and compassion for animals. Animals are my passion, and I plan to pursue this passion in marine biology after my undergraduate at JcTc to preserve the biodiversity of our planet. I am a graduate cum laude from high school, I have a total flexibility on weekdays, before 2:00pm on Fridays, and my weekends are open. I have a fenced in backyard, my pet has regular vet visits, I am responsible for insuring my dog the proper amount of nutrition each day. I understand the importance of daily walks, and use a leash at all times.

“Keeley was so great with my golden retriever Cali - she walked her and also house sat. Cali is always excited to see her. Great communication with Keeley and very responsible. Will be using her again!”


“Tony and his family are absolutely amazing. He is certainly right that he makes your pup part of his family. He took care of my two dogs for 10 days and provided them with such attentive care. He is great at communicating before, during, and after the pet sitting reservation. Plus, he takes amazing portrait-ready photos of your pups that show-off your doggie’s best look. I believe my dogs had so much fun and attention that they feel like Tony and his family are part of their pack now. You also get the added bonus of having Dodger as a new doggy friend for your woofer. We definitely now have a go-to sitter with Tony. Highly recommend!!!”


“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Grayson! From the very first visit, it was clear how much love, care, and attention he gives to animals. He treated our pets like his own—sending us regular updates, photos, and thoughtful notes that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dog (and even our usually shy cat!) instantly bonded with him, which says everything about his calming and kind presence. He went above and beyond making sure their routines were followed to a T. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless home. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals, look no further. Grayson an absolute gem, and we feel so lucky to have found him!”
