About: For most of my life, I have owned, loved, boarded, fostered, and/or cared for a broad range of animals, including dogs (small and large), cats (domesticated and feral), hamsters, rabbits, chickens, fish, one gerbil, one parrot, and a handful of reptiles. (I've also spent some time on farms learning husbandry.) From this comes experience with the full cycle of life with companion animals - birth, adolescence, training, advancements, setbacks, accidents, illness, aging, and loss. I'm no stranger to providing extra potty breaks for puppies (our interests are mutually aligned) or with giving daily medications. For the first time in many years, my home is without a pet of my own - let me dote on yours when you can't. I'm a retired(ish) attorney and veteran now working from home with plenty of time and attention to give to your fur babies. Regular walks and exercise are an important part of our routine. My property is ~ 2 acres, large portions of which are fenced but couldn't be properly described as secured. Your dog's temperament will determine whether it can roam / play / fetch unleashed, but in no event will dogs be outside unattended. Inside, I try to make my home as welcoming and comforting for your pets as I would hope would be done for mine - animals are allowed on the furniture and are invited to sleep where they please, unless you instruct otherwise.

Lisa was great with our boys! They were happy to have some company while we were away for the weekend. I loved getting photos of them while we were gone! I truly felt like they were in great hands with Lisa and look forward to working with her again!

Amazing is an understatement! My two cats have grown so comfortable with Amanda (and so quickly!); she is so good with them. She did an incredible, I mean truly unbelievable, job socializing with my people-averse, scaredy-cat kitten to the point where, instead of hiding, she hears Amanda and comes out to play. Even my senior baby boy who is grumpy in my absence is less moody when Amanda visits. On top of all of that, Amanda is a total professional in every aspect; she’s an excellent and active communicator, shows immense mindfulness in the execution of her work, and is so respectful when in my home. I’m sincerely so grateful for her!

Destiny is first and foremost an animal lover. There’s no one I would trust more with my pets than Destiny! She has had pets all her life and is the most compassionate and loving towards them. The years of experience with cats and dogs has made Destiny very knowledgeable about animals needs and how to take care of them. When I got my puppy Destiny gave me all the advice I needed on how best to care for her. Your pet will be in the best of hands with Destiny!

Alexis went above and beyond on the tasks requested and even stayed extra time with my cats which was very kind of her! She was punctual and responsible and my cats warmed up to her immediately. I was able to have peace of mind during my trip. I would definitely rebook with Alexis and recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.

Lindsay is an excellent pet parent to her two special needs pets (cat and dog) and has an incredibly caring, responsible and loving attitude towards animals that makes me recommend her to anyone needing a sitter/walker. Before she moved out of state, she was my go to for the past 10 years for my two cats whenever I was out of town. Lindsay is friendly, all pets love her, and she will make sure yours are well taken care of always!

I’ve known ashley our whole lives and the way she loves her animals, i can’t imagine how much she loves others. I’ve seen her go through the certification classes as well as met some of the animals she’s watched and she definitely has a passion for these guys! If i had a pet, i wouldn’t trust anyone else but her with it!

Whitney is the sweetest, most caring pet sitter I’ve ever had! She pays attention to my cat’s needs and makes sure to spend quality time with her. It makes my day when she sends me photos of my cat while I’m away. :) Her attention to detail and sincere care for animals make her the best pet sitter I could ever ask for!

I wholeheartedly endorse Brenna for Rover because she is everything you’d want in a pet sitter and more. Having seen her interact with animals firsthand, I can confidently say she has a natural gift for making pets feel safe, loved, and cared for. Brenna’s patience, reliability, and attention to detail ensure that every pet’s needs are met, and her warm, personable nature makes her a joy to work with. She’s the kind of person who treats every animal as if they were her own, and I can’t think of anyone better to entrust with your furry family members.
