About: I’ve worked with everything from playful puppies to laid-back cats and curious kittens. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I make sure your pets stay comfortable and happy in their routine. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just company, I’ve got it covered! 🐾 Currently a student a St. Thomas but am usually free Friday through Sunday for sitting and week days for walks! I will become free everyday of the week in the summer. In your home, I stick to your pet’s routine. Whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I keep things low stress for them and always clean up after myself.
About: I have been taking care of all kinds of animals since as early as elementary school. I’ve been through all stages of life with animals, from feeding a bottle baby to helping the old pup up the stairs. I also have an animal science degree in equine management. I would love to give you peace of mind while i take care of your fur babies! I typically work shifts from 7am-3pm, so I am currently available late afternoons/evenings. The best times for me are from 4pm-10pm, and I can also do long-term care at the owner’s home with enough notice given. Unfortunately I am currently renting, so I am not able to care for pets in my own home. However, I am able to do drop-in visits, walks, and long-term care at the owner’s home.
“Would highly recommend Carissa. Very sweet and great with our dogs. Our dogs have never been left with anyone besides family. She stayed in contact with me the entire time we were gone. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing our dogs were in caring hands.”
About: While I don't have traditional professional experience, I would often pet sit for my neighbors growing up. I love animals, and I look forward to helping take care of yours! I have a flexible job. I have plenty of time in the evenings (or on weekends) to stop by and check in on your fur babies or take them for walks! When I'm checking on your pets I'll make sure to follow any instructions you've left and also make sure that your pets seem happy and healthy. If you're ok with it, my kids might come with to give some extra love and attention. We would, of course, discuss this first!
“Mandy was excellent with my two kitties! They were well fed, well brushed, and well taken care of the whole time we were away for the holiday! I loved the daily pictures of Mandy having play time with the kitties. Would most definitely hire her again.”
About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and abilities through volunteering and pet sitting. While I’ve only formally trained my own dogs, I’ve gained plenty of real-world knowledge by working with everything from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups who need a gentler touch. I'm patient, reliable, and genuinely passionate about making pets feel loved, safe, and happy while their humans are away. Whether it's a long walk, some playtime, or just quiet cuddles, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs—because every animal deserves to feel at home, even when they’re not! I work full time but fully remote from my home office so I am available for morning, lunch, or after work walks or feeds when you are rushing to get to work or travel. I typically do not care for pets in my own home as my dog is picky about which dogs are around and I don't want to put anyone at risk. I am happy to come to you!
About: Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, lizards - if it has four legs and and is smaller than a pony, I've owned it or taken care of it for others. I've raised puppies, rehabilitated rescues, and gently cared for the seniors who need a different kind of love and support. I'm your number one choice for a responsible, attentive pet sitter who will give your critter what you need me to. Walks, medication, play time, cuddles, feeding - I'm all in! I'm a recent empty-nester and freelance grant writer, so I have lots of flexibility for visits 7 days a week. Morning, afternoon, evening - we can make it work! I adhere to whatever requests and rules you may have as a client, and take scrupulous care of your home and property. You will have complete peace of mind knowing your pet and your home are in the best possible hands.
About: I love dogs no matter the size or personality! I have walked dogs of all different breeds, I am currently fostering a dog in college trying to find him a forever home! If your dog needs to go for more of a run then walk that is no problem I love going on runs with them. If you choose me to walk your dog they will get the energy out and be ready and cuddly for when you get home! This summer I will be available on Thursdays and Fridays for what ever your pet needs, whether its drop in visits or a good walk to stretch their legs or get some energy. I also have a cat that I love dearly and would be more than happy to stop in and take care of what ever your cat needs. I have a good sized yard that isn't completely fenced in but a stake in the ground would do the trick. There aren't that many other dogs in my neighborhood which would be a perk if your pet didn't care for other animals.
About: I have lived with a dog consistently for the last 23 years. All of my dogs have come from rescue's which means I am familiar with dogs who have anxiety, trust issues, reactive behavior, slow to warm up, etc. I am an elementary school teacher who has the majority of my summer free. In July, I will not be available in the mornings, because I will be teaching summer school. I care for pets in others homes by slowly entering, allowing them to sniff me first, saying hello in a calm voice, and getting down on their level.
“Martha was super! The pets loved her, and she took fantastic care of them. We are fairly new to Rover and have such great experiences so far. We look forward to rebooking with Martha!”
About: Hi there, I’m bekah! I grew up in the county and am never afraid of getting dirty. I love being active, spending time in the outdoors and being surrounded by loving animals! My family used to have horses, goats, cats, and dogs. Our beautiful Australian Shepard, named Ginger, recently passed. She is missed dearly. I also have experience dog sitting two big lab mixes as well as house sitting. I love a good running buddy but am also always down for some doggie snuggles! I hope to make your pets feel comfortable, happy and healthy while you are away! Keeping things tidy and organized is a must for me. I take the responsibility of dog and/or house sitting very seriously. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have! Currently, I work from home; and it’s a flexible job (graphic design!) I love to be outside after work and all that is missing is a pet in my life. I will care for your pet to the best of my ability. I would treat them as if they were my own. I will listen/watch to see what their needs are, take them out for exercise and bathroom breaks. I will feed them on time, and of course, I would love to play and snuggle with them.
About: I've always grown up with having dogs in my home and currently at my parents house have two rescue dogs. I've watched dogs and cats from friends, family, and neighbors for many years now. I currently work full-time Monday through Wednesday working in a cardiology clinic, and am fully available Thursday through Sunday when I do not work in the office. My apartment has its own fenced in dog park that is often empty or not busy. I love to take dogs on walks or just spend time outside playing with them.
About: I will walk your dog or pop in and feed/visit/let out while giving it lots of attention, sometimes with the help (fully supervised!) of my two kids (age 11 and 8)! I work from home most days and would love taking the dog for walks. My two kids love dogs and want to help when they can! Happy to go for any length walk your dog is used to. Also happy to stop in and let the dog out during the day.

Rebekah C.
“Bekah has spent a lot of time at our house and we are a dog family (or any furry animal family)! Anyone who visits is welcome to bring their furry friend. Bekah is always ready to help and love all furry friends who visit, including Levi who lives with us. My son adopted Levi almost 2 years ago. He is a Lab/Shepard mix that has grown to 100lbs. AND he slobbers!! Whenever he greets you he slimes you:) But that never stops Bekah from hanging out with him and giving him love. I know Bekah would love to share her life with a dog, but realizes that, at this point in her life, she wouldn't be able to have her own dog full time. But, she would be great at sharing her love for dogs with someone else's furry friend for periods of time. Bekah realizes that dogs are loved family members. She loves to be outside and go for walks. She is organized and very reliable. But, most of all, Bekah is a dog lover, and has plenty of love to share with someone else's dog.”

Gabriela did a fantastic job with our senior cat while we were away. Our cat is very sensitive and we were worried about leaving him but returned home to find him well cared for and very content. Gabriela kept us feeling at ease with daily updates and was easy to communicate with from the start. We had an excellent experience with Gabriela and absolutely recommend her!
Gabriela is the best cat sitter we've ever had, we will definitely be using her services in the future. Gabriela went above and beyond what was expected of her. I dont even think our cat "Luke" realized we were gone with all the love and affection Gabriela was giving him.
