About: New customers get $20 off first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/tinay36247 I've had two dogs, three cats and worked at a non-profit animal shelter for a number of years. I love animals of all kinds and am excited to take care of your family member! I generally only take one furry friend at a time so that they get my unlimited attention, however, if from same family, I can take more than one. Please message me. During the weekends, I am always at home and around the neighborhood. We have several great dog parks around the neighborhood. If you do not see any available days, please message me and I will be glad to work with you! My schedule can be flexible and adjusted to suit your needs. I have a fenced in backyard and will be sure to always be available to play with and accompany your pet. I will send pictures and videos to update you while you are away. I am responsible and can administer medication if needed. I would love to meet with you and your pet(s) first before you make a decision on a sitter. During that time, we can discuss all of your pet's needs, eating schedule, bathroom schedule, etc...No play will be unsupervised.

About: Lifelong dog lover with experience caring for pups of all sizes—providing daily affection, exercise and tailored attention to keep tails wagging and hearts happy. I have two dogs of my own (one chihuahua and one english bulldog) so I have experience with low and high maintenance fur babies. I'm currently volunteering at a local shelter catering to dogs of all sizes! I currently have a hybrid schedule, which means I'm home half of the week and usually free on the weekends! I'm already a dog mom of two so my dogs' routine is like second nature to me. I have a dog-friendly home including a fenced-in backyard, with tons of space for your pups to roam safely. My neighborhood is extremely dog friendly and I'm only 2 blocks from a park for longer walks!

“Wonderful, caring pet sitter! My cat normally hides when new people visit my home, but she took to Railya instantly and stayed out for her. Railya followed all of my instructions, gave me thorough updates, and you can really tell that she loves animals and takes her job seriously. I have already booked her for my next trip out of town!”

As a devoted dog mom to Frank and Colette for over eight years, she’s experienced it all from puppy energy to senior dog TLC and handles it with patience, care, and a great sense of humor. She’s the kind of person who plans her day around her dogs’ routines, knows every park within a 10-block radius, and somehow always has a treat or poop bag on hand. Beyond being a true animal lover, Caroline is attentive, communicative, and incredibly reliable qualities any pet parent would be lucky to find in a sitter. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, Caroline is your person. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my pup in her care!”
