“Katherine was great. Very professional and communication was great. My dog was very well taken care of while we were gone. Will definitely hire again!”

“Kimberly house sat our two dogs (one of which is a senior and needs extra care) for a whole day and made sure we didn’t worry while gone. She showed up on time, took instruction very well for medication that needed to be administered, and provided many photos and updates the whole time. Would definitely rebook with Kimberly in the near future!”

About: I have been pet/ house sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for over two years now. I do have experience with taking care of senior pets. I am available day to day unless I already have another gig booked! Both week days and weekends are good for me. (Message to confirm availability.) Before starting any gig, I always ask pet parents what they expect of me when it comes to feeding, walking, and, in general, assisting their pets, and follow any instructions given.

“Michael was great! He stayed over at our house and was a great a communicator and took amazing pictures of our pup. We plan on using him again in a week!”

About: I've cared for dogs, cats, and other animals, walked and trained my own pets, and even helped with labor - gentle, experienced, and reliable care! Active student starting community college this summer. I run daily, exercise, and have open availability all week. reliable, energetic, and ready to help your pet. I will only be doing pet walking and pop ins I can't sit at my own place because we have other dogs and there are already to many and they aren't as friendly.

“Brigette was wonderful! She stayed at our house for a week and took great care of both our pups and our home. She kept us updated throughout our trip with regular messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind and made us feel confident that our dogs were happy and well cared for. She also went above and beyond by washing the sheets and towels she used and leaving the house in great condition. It was so nice to come home to happy dogs and a clean house. We would absolutely book Brigette again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter.”

“Lindsey was fantastic with my 1 year old pup. My dog has a lot of energy and is very clingy and Lindsey showed so much concern and care for his well being. She took him on a ton of walks, played with him a bunch, and kept me updated throughout. I really appreciate how thorough and caring she is! She made sure to send me photos and videos, and kept me updated on his walks, how he slept, and his little quirks. My dog was so comfortable around her and was calm and tired upon me returning, so I can tell that Lindsey took exceptional care of him. I would recommend Lindsey wholeheartedly!”

“Ninon was just terrific! She took excellent care of our Maggie, and she sent pictures and provided brief updates which set our mind at ease. We will definitely ask her to dog-sit Maggie again.”

“JAMIE IS THE BEST ROVER I HAVE EVER HAD!!! I’ve had my cat for ten years, and have used rover many times. But Jamie? She’s different. My cat is very particular, high needs sweet boy who needs meds three times a day. He is very attached to me, and leaving him is difficult for both of us. But the moment he met Jamie? He was smitten. She sent me a video of him purring next time her. Genuinely? He’s in love. Jamie was communicative, kind, and so very good to my boy. She is now our go-to sitter. Best rover I have ever had!!!”

“Stephen was an incredible caretaker of our skittish and very shy little dog and kind, middle-aged cat. We immediately felt his warmth after meeting him for the first time, and sure enough, the animals did, too. Soon after leaving town, we received pictures of our scary-cat dog cuddled up to him… he’s a pet whisperer! After our weekend away, it was obvious that our animals got tons of love and attention. We would highly recommend Stephen without reservation!”

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for as long as I can remember! I grew up in a household that always had at least two dogs and two cats, and I loved being involved in their care from a young age. Today, I have a beautiful six-year-old calico of my own named Goose, who is my pride and joy. I will also add that I do have some experience with exotic animals and took care of an axolotl for years. My friends and family turn to me when they need someone to look after their pets. I genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. I’m attentive, adaptable, and mindful of each pet’s individual needs and routines, and I’m always happy to go the extra mile to make sure both pets and their owners feel at ease. If you book with me, you can expect lots of love, patience, and thoughtful care. I look forward to becoming your pet’s new buddy! Please feel free to reach out with any questions. :) I’m currently working part-time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! My weekends are typically wide open, and on weekdays I’m most often available after 3 PM. My availability can vary a bit from week to week, so please feel free to reach out with any scheduling questions or requests. I’m always happy to communicate, work around your needs when possible, and find a schedule that works for everyone! I offer drop-in visits and house sitting in my clients’ homes, including overnight stays, rather than boarding pets in my own home. I’m very respectful of other people’s spaces and will follow all household rules and instructions, taking care to leave everything just as I found it. I’m adaptable and happy to learn whatever routines your pets are accustomed to, whether that means specific feeding schedules, medication, regular potty breaks, playtime, or simply keeping them company. My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their familiar environment, with as little disruption to their routine as possible. I also know how reassuring it can be to hear from someone looking after your pets, so I’m always happy to send photo and text updates throughout my time with them! I want you to be able to relax while you’re away, knowing your pets and your home are in good hands. I’m happy to communicate, answer questions, and accommodate your pets’ individual needs so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. :)

About: Growing up in a dog-loving family with parents on the board of an animal shelter, I have experience with senior, fosters, puppies, reactive, and diverse dogs! I have three years of dog walking experience at Citizens for Humane Action. I love all types of dogs, but now am a dog mom to a corgi named Juno! I'm currently working part-time as a clinical researcher so I have a flexible schedule on weekdays and weekends for dog-walking, playing with your pup during drop-in visits, and for house sitting. I have the most flexibility in the mornings, but am happy to accommodate all schedules! I have an anxious, but explorative corgi myself, so I know the importance of giving dogs of all personalities the space to feel comfortable and happy on walks. I like to let dogs lead, but be aware of my surroundings to ensure that both your pup and other pedestrians are safe! In the home, I take it slow and again, let the dog lead! I would love the opportunity to get to know your dog!

“Naomi was absolutely wonderful with Poster Nutbag and Piper during our four-day weekend away. Her genuine love for animals came through immediately — and the calm, contented state our babies were in when we got home said everything about the quality of care she provided. Attentive, thoughtful, and clearly at ease with both cats and dogs, Naomi made sure our home was in great hands too. We returned to happy pets and a spotless house, which is honestly the dream. We can't recommend her highly enough and are already looking forward to booking her again!”

“Corinne is so reliable, responsive and takes such amazing care of our pup when we can’t be home. I don’t worry for a second when I’m away if Corinne is there because I know MJ is well cared for and having the best time.”

Caroline V.

“Gabriana was amazing. Our pets took to her so quickly, including our highly anxious dog! She’s a pet whisperer. We also returned to a clean and organized house. Highly recommend her!”

Marielena R.

“Jennifer was very professional--on time, super clean, very personable to us and sweet to our pup. She really make sure everything is done well and finished. I would highly recommend her, and of course, book her the next time we vacation! Our labradoodle really liked her, too!”

About: Not only have I worked with my own dog. My experience working at a small pet store has let me work with many kinds of dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, fish, guinea pigs, and more. Not only do I know my way around common and exotic pets but I have exceptional experience with dogs. I'm no stranger to any messes they might make, I can give medication if needed, and I even know how to trim nails. Every dog is special and unique and I thrive on giving them all the utmost love and care. I have basic dog training knowledge and am well-versed in canine nutrition as well. I have a somewhat flexible schedule although it can change on a weekly basis, it depends on the number of other animals I have booked at the moment. Also depends on distance. The more advanced notice the better. I always take into consideration a dog's needs and any disabilities or diseases they might have. I will also take great care in where I take them on a walk depending on their temperament with other people and/or dogs.

About: Hi, I’m Jane! I grew up caring for all kinds of animals including a Golden Retriever, Shitzu, and a Fat-Tailed Gecko. Although I adore all animals, cats have always had a special place in my heart. I now have two beautiful kitties by the names of Chichi and Ivy. I'm strong, athletic and fully capable of caring for any type of pet no matter how big or small. I understand that every pet is different and has their own personality and set of boundaries. I am fully committed to meeting their specific needs. Pets are family and require only the best care and attention. During house visits, I take great pride in walking, feeding, playing and providing endless affection. Please don't hesitate to reach out - I want to meet you!

“Dominique did a great job watching my four big dogs. She kept us informed by sending pics on a daily basis. We kept in touch everyday via texting. My dogs in general are good pups but four big dogs are a challenge. Dominique handled herself well! She loves dogs and I recommend her for sitting with big dogs!”
