“Mary was great with our dog. She was very proffesional, took notes, was on time, great communication, and patient with our older pup. She even watered my plants several times during the Summer heat. I would highly recommend Mary to anyone wanting quality care for their pet.”


“Heather was the BEST! I’ve never used Rover before, but now I’m sure to rebook. There weren’t any issues and she went above and beyond (cleaned water filter, vacuumed, etc). Gave me such peace of mind while I was away”


“Stacey was so organized and friendly when taking care of my cat! She followed all the directions perfectly! And sent photos and notes daily. I would definitely recommend her!”


“Lydia is a very professional, kind, and caring sitter. My puppy was very shy and nervous at first, but after Lydia's first visit, Luca quickly bonded with her and gained confidence. I couldn't recommend anyone more highly. Lydia goes beyond the usual duties by dedicating quality time as part of her service. Luca and I look forward to working with her again.”

About: I’ve grew up with dogs in my house. Since I was 12 years old I was in charge of feed, bath and walk my dog. I’m available on this hours: Monday- friday: from 5:30 pm I work from home on tuesdays. (8-5pm) Sat and Sundays: all day long and night I will respect the rules that you have in your house like where that sleep or if they are allowed to be on the furniture, etc

About: It's been a privilege to be Dingo’s (blue heeler mix) dad for 14 years! Growing up our family dogs included Toulee, Sparky, Muffy, and Tori (all springer spaniels). Over the years I've taken care of many neighbor, friend, and family dogs and I look forward to meeting your special pet! I work a flexible part time schedule. There are occasional days I'm gone out of town for the day but usually can adjust to most schedules. I believe pets should be treated with care and respect. Each pet has their own personality and needs. Besides potty breaks, water, and treats - I like to interact with pets to show them I am a friend.

About: Between my brothers, parents, best friends, and myself, I’ve taken care of a dozen dogs and cats over the last ten years. I’ve had my best friend, Biscuit, for the past eight years. Recently, he was diagnosed with a condition that needs special attention and that has made us grow closer. So I know the care and attention required for senior pets, pets with special needs, and pets who simply don’t have time to be with their owner for the moment. I’d love to lessen the load for you as a caretaker and even have Biscuit make a friend if you board with me! I currently work part time in the afternoon/evenings, so I have lots of availability for morning feeds and walks. I finish up work around dinner time so I will have time to accommodate evening walks or feeds. I have a fenced in back yard with cushions for pets to lay out in the sun. My neighborhood has a large green space for fetch. We have plenty of toys, treat games, and pet beds if you board. I also love going on walks myself, so I don’t mind taking your dog on longer walks in your neighborhood.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with cats, dogs, lizards and fish taught me responsibility, patience, and a deep love for animals of all kinds. My passion led me to work as a professional dog groomer for several years, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I have a natural connection with animals and truly enjoy their company. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing in the yard, or simply providing companionship and care, I’m dedicated to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I'm extremely reliable, attentive to detail, and treat every pet like they’re my own. If you're looking for someone who’s not only experienced but genuinely passionate about animal care, I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry or scaly family member! Not to mention I was a dog groomer for a few years! I currently work full time, but my job leaves me getting off early most days. So early mornings, mid afternoons and evenings I can help with your pets needs! I can follow your requests as needed, just give me your expectations and I will accommodate. Anything for the fur babies, just need to know the specifics!

“Sarah was amazing! From the beginning to the end. She was punctual and took amazing care of our pups. Sarah is extremely friendly and she was a pleasure to work with. I will definitely recommend her and will be using her again! Sarah…thank you so much for giving us peace of mind while we were out of town with our fur babies ??”


“Noah was great! He stepped in on short notice to take care of my furry son. Always on time and genuinely attentive, going the extra mile, ensuring everything ran smoothly. I felt completely at ease knowing my big baby was in capable hands. I came back home to a happy doggie. I’ll definitely book his services again. 5 stars! 😊”


About: I have owned several dogs of my own including a husky, silky terrier, and miniature golden doodle. I also have owned a siamese kitten. I currently run with my pup and have lots of energy to play/run/walk your pup. I also enjoy spending time with cats and would love to take care of your kitty. I currently work part time at a local hospital, and will have time to spend with your beloved pets. I typically walk daily if not twice daily, so I will be able to fit in your walks. When visiting a client’s home, I prioritize the safety and comfort of both cats and dogs. I follow all care instructions closely, ensure doors and gates are secure, and take the time to build trust with each pet. Whether it’s a quick walk, playtime, or feeding, I aim to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I also respect your space and always leave things clean and as I found them.

About: I had a pet sitting business in college where I watched dogs, cats, and chickens! I was booked almost every month for a few weeks. I have taken care of puppies and senior animals and everything in between. I am very comfortable giving medications, shots, etc. I am available early mornings and late nights and everything in between. I just finished graduate school and am looking for something flexible that fits around me finishing my dissertation. I am able to feed your animals, take them out for walks, play with them, etc. What I don’t do is stay overnight or bring them to my home.

Raenah B.
“Raenah has watched my cat many times and has always done a great job. My cat, Versace, is a very needy yet not very nice girl so she is not the easiest to pet sit for. Raenah has always done a great job making sure Versace is well taken care of, kept active, and not lonely, as she tends to be when I’m away. She also has always been very diligent about giving Versace her diabetes medication which is of course very important. 10/10 pet sitter.”
