“Alissa stopped in multiple afternoons to take care of my dog while I was at work. She is reliable, easy to communicate with, and sent great updates about her visit with pictures!”


“I honestly don't know what I would do without Hannah. My schedule is very inconsistent and Hannah is always able to accommodate and do drop ins for my two dogs. She's always on time and always gets back to me quickly. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for help with their pups.”


About: I am a dog mom currently without a dog. I lost my soul dog, Bogart, in 2023 after having him from 10 weeks old to just shy of his 14th birthday. He was so spoiled, everyone we know can confirm. During his last few years, he suffered from a collapsed trachea so we went through many health phases. He lived three years past when the vet said we would probably lose him. I feel that’s due to my love and care. I’m also the person at friends and family’s houses that their pets flock too. Dogs, and even cats, just know I’m an animal lover. I would love to love on your furry child. I’m currently a self employed cake baker and decorator with lots of time on my hands. I may even bring some fresh baked doggy treats for your pet, assuming you’re ok with it. My dog Bogart used to love his peanut butter, banana, and pumpkin treats. I’m willing to do whatever works for your pet and your home. I’m used to crate training but if you need a stay over night visit, I’m fine with your dog sleeping in bed if that’s what they are used to. I’m there to keep them company, keep them safe and keep them loved.

“Paola was so reliable and flexible. I had to change my request a few times and each time she responded quickly that it was no issues for her. She arrived exactly as requested and did all the tasks that I asked of her. She texted me when she had a question, which made feel so confident that she was taking everything very serious and didn't want to make a mistake. I will 100% contact her again when I go away.”


“I cannot speak more highly of Marilyn!!!!!! She is THE BEST dog sitter I could ever, EVER ask for!!!!! No others compare!!!! Not only is she so gentle and responsible with my dog, but she goes above and beyond what is asked for; taking him to the nearby playground for fun times, relaxing in the sun, cuddling and loving on him in my home, sweetly playing with his favorite toys, even taking selfies to show me how much she cares for him. It literally brings tears to my eyes seeing these pictures because of how safe I feel Mickey is and how wonderful she is!!! She follows instructions to the tee and she’s perfect!! I adore her!!! Please use her!!!! Your puppy will have another mommy 🤗🐶❤️”


“Emily did a fantastic job dropping in for my cat Mika while I was away. She made sure to send me daily updates and pictures with how Mika was doing. Mika is typically hides while visitors are in the house, but over they days she warmed up to Emily and gladly accepted treats. I will most certainly use Emily again to watch over Mika.”


“Sabita went above and beyond to help us. When our other sitter ended up going to the emergency room, Sabita responded to my panicked Rover message within 2 hours, and made time for my pets. She was communicative, punctual, and followed our directions. She additionally boarded our dog for a few hours during a home sale Open House, then helped find the escaped cats (loose in the house following the Open House) and still came back for a night time visit. She let us know that there was a leak in the kitchen, and helped lay out towels and a bin to catch water. Sabita couldn’t have been more helpful and kind. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.”


About: As a dog lover, I care about the safety and happiness of your pet. I will always go out of my way to make sure an animal is comfortable and cared for. Since I adopted my chihuahua with an attitude almost 5 years ago, I've learned to understand and respect boundaries. I have cared for friends' dogs of all breeds when they are away and I have also fostered a couple of dogs. I would love to spend some time with your pet! I am a graphic designer by day, but I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible. I will be able to care for your pet in the late afternoons or evenings, and sometimes on weekends, especially Sundays! I follow instructions thoroughly and respect your space, as well as your dog's boundaries. I understand that I am entering your pet's home. My communication with owners is important to me, and I can send updates and photos when I am with your pet if requested.

“Taylor was absolutely incredible with our two cats from daily updates to pictures. Our one cat has diabetes needing insulin twice a day. She came for a meet and greet and was absolutely wonderful with both our cats. I would highly recommended Taylor especially if you have animals with medical conditions!”


“Jesse was amazing!! My 2 dogs immediately took to her - she was a great match for them. She was attentive and detail oriented, having no trouble with my dogs routine. She made me feel secure knowing she was taking such good care of my kiddos while I was away. Will definitely hire her again in the future.”


About: I will provide one on one attention with your dog. Your dog will be cared for and loved. I owed multiple dogs and I have experience training puppies. I currently work from home and I have a flexible schedule to take your dogs on walks and having play time. I have open availability during the week. I have a very friendly cavapoo dog who loves to play with other dogs. I live in an apartment with an open backyard for the dog play and run around. I also have a dog park in my community.

About: Your pets are your family and best friends, and HOW they’re cared for matters even more than them being cared for. Growing up, my family always had a pet, from cats, birds, dogs & more. In my adult life, I have 2 dogs, that I’ve been loving for about 4 years. They are my entire heart. My oldest is professionally trained and I’ve trained my youngest with the skills I learned along the way. I understand and value routine, consistency and boundaries. I also understand the struggle of finding a person who you can trust AND has the availability. I’ve cared for elderly cats with diabetes and have experience in healthcare (for humans) that allows me to be comfortable with caring for older pups, who need a little extra care. If you have any questions please ask & I hope to meet your furry… (or not, I don’t judge) friends soon! I am a work from home freelancer and have the ability to come & go as I please. I love to be of service and taking care of Pets, especially my own, keep me working towards being a better person. I care for my pets by giving them safe love consistently. Simply feeding and letting them go out is the bare minimum of care. By being aware of any pet I ensure their needs are consistently met. Care goes as deep as playing with them, entertaining them, stimulating them, exercising them, praising them and patience with them. Being attentive and punctual is always an important part of pet care that i provide!

About: With over 5 years of pet care experience, I’ve had the joy of working with dogs, cats, and small animals of all kinds. I’ve grown up with pets and currently have two lovable cats of my own—Oliver and Honey. Whether it’s tail-wagging walks, purr-filled check-ins, or caring for bunnies and hamsters, I treat every animal like part of the family. Reliable, patient, and paw-sitively passionate about animals! I have flexible availability and can work around your schedule for in-your-home care, walks, or drop-in visits. Whether you need daytime help, evening check-ins, or weekend support, I’m here to make things easy and stress-free for you and your pets. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I always follow your care instructions closely and take the time to build trust with each animal. Whether it’s securing leashes, monitoring play, or making sure your home is locked up tight, you can count on me to treat your pets—and your space—with the same care and respect I give my own.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 5 years old and I am 22 years old now. I’ve also helped trained my dogs to sit pretty and the command “leave it”. I have experience with dogs with aggressive tendencies and resource guarding. If your pet has any medical conditions which require medication, I am able to give oral and injection medications to your pet as well as any dietary supplements. I have experience with many types of breeds of dogs but my speciality is bigger dogs including shepherds and malinois. I want to make the best experience for each new and returning client. So if any other preferences or additional services needed, don’t hesitate to ask :) I am flexible with scheduling and will fit into your time. I am home most of the day so I can take your pet out for walks and play with them. Being that I’m a college student, I do school online and work but I have a set schedule which has me home early in the day. I live in an apartment so there is room for the pet to roam around and they are allowed on the furniture if they are looking for snuggles.
