“Becky cat-sitted for us over thanksgiving. She learned our two cats’ routines quickly, was attentive to their needs, and was very communicative! Already great to come home to happy cats!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my home for 14 years and cats my whole life. I’ve had dogs of small and large sizes and can handle a dog of any personality I am currently a full time college student looking to get more involved in my community. I have a pretty free schedule for drop ins or walks I do not offer in home service at this time. I can provide walks and drop ins only! sorry if this is inconvenient, thank you.
“Danny was friendly, prompt and diligent. Danny took care of our 17-year old tabby cat with care and attention. This was our first time using Rover; but hopefully will not be our last! Highly recommend Danny.”
“Elena was a great pet sitter, I absolutely loved her! She took care of everything my cat needed and that we agreed. She took the time to get to know him and the attention was all focused on him. It was the best sitter I had so far. Definitely booking again! Thanks Elena, it is so great to have peace of mind even leaving the little one.”
“Jennifer has been our cat caretaker for a couple of long trips and we couldn’t be happier with her support and care. Our two cats have differing personalities and she is able to get on their level giving them time to warm up and become friends. You’ll come back to a clean home and happy pets. We know our pets are in good hands when with Jennifer!”
“Jalyne has provided fantastic support of our cat Mindy across several vacations. Very reliable and a great communicator. We will definitely be working with her again during future vacations.”
About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, I provide loving, reliable, and attentive pet sitting services. I’ve worked with pets of all ages and temperaments, including seniors and those with special needs, ensuring they feel safe and happy while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I prioritize morning walks, midday check-ins, and evening playtime, ensuring pets receive consistent attention and affection. Weekends often include longer outings or special enrichment activities, making sure each pet feels loved and engaged throughout the week. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and cozy environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and routine care. In clients’ homes, I follow their specific instructions closely—maintaining feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, and keeping pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they feel secure and loved.
“Wow. I can’t say enough about the quality of care Brandon provided to our active dog Coco (who needed medicine administered and extra TLC during his visit) and our kitty Cora. His communication with us and the animals was wonderful, he updated us in real time, and everyone was in great shape when we arrived home. We’ll definitely be rebooking with Brandon!”
“This was our second time booking Marilyn. She is thoughtful and detail oriented. We missed our cat while we were away, but we were comforted knowing that Marilyn was caring for her.”
About: Hi! My name is Donna, and have loved and cared for dogs ever since I was a kid. I'm comfortable with all dogs, no matter the size or age. From dogs as small as Yorkies, to as big as German Shepherds and Pitbulls. I'm also comfortable and willing to take care of puppies from as young as 8 weeks to above. I used to work at an animal shelter, and was trained basic dog behavior and enrichments that can help stimulate your dog. During my spare time I will volunteer at animal shelters just to help dogs with getting their exercise for the day. Nothing is better than being able to spend time with a dog! I can't wait to meet your best friend :) *I also pet sit cats as well!! if your feline friend needs to be taken care of, I would be more than happy to do so!!* I work remotely and have the availability to drop in on your furry friend when need be, or taking them out for a stimulating walk. I will always make sure that your dog is at their utmost safest when in my care. By making sure their leash/harness/collar is placed well, to always keeping an eye out environmentally wise so their walks are always safe.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with two years of hands-on experience working in a private pet sitting business—learning everything from body language and behavior to positive reinforcement training. I specialize in the playful and misunderstood. With a background in healthcare for the elderly, I bring a ton of patience, empathy, and intuition to my work—whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or somewhere in between. I’m passionate about building trust, keeping things fun, and creating a little community through wagging tails and happy purrs. I am available daily for the time being. Very flexible schedule with my nanny role. Just give me 24 hours notice and I’m happy to accommodate:) House sitting can be any time as long as your fur baby is safe and adjusted to being alone a few hours a day ( 3-4 max). I have my own car and have been driving for nearly a decade. I can no longer have my own pets due to apartment rules, so I’m more dedicated than ever to care for yours. I can make the most of your living space or explore your neighborhood and local parks.
