“Cindy was able to make a couple of visits to take our dog out on fairly short notice. She went above and beyond our expectations by taking Ollie out for a nice long walk both times. I would definitely ask her to take care of Ollie again.”
2. Evelyn B.
“Evelyn went above and beyond for my girl! It was a bit of a trek from her home and she made the trip 3 days in a row! She even asked the hotel staff to change my linens when she noticed a spill! If I’m ever in the area again I absolutely will use her! Thanks Evelyn!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16! My family has 2 dogs so I know how much your pet means to you. :) My schedule varies slightly from week to week due to school and wrestling, so I make sure to update my calendar once a week to ensure that I am available. Feel free to reach out with any questions! My family has 2 dogs, so I know how much love you can have for a pet. They are like your children. Based off of personal experience, I know it can be nerve wracking trusting someone new with your fur baby, but I promise to provide the best care!

“Took great care of my 2 cats. We were in the middle of a move and she made sure the cats had all the food and toys that they wanted at their disposal the whole time.”
7. Samantha H.
About: My family had a couple cats growing up and I've cat sat / cared for cats over the years for neighbors. My fiancé and I both hope to get a cat or dog in the near future so any experience and exposure to caring for an animal would be really helpful. I’ve been around dogs plenty but not specifically cared for them other than through association with friends. Love every moment. I am very flexible right now and have availability during the week Monday to Thursday at this time and will update as my schedule evolves. I hope to offer the utmost trust and reliability to my clients while creating a safe, caring and fun environment for their beloved pets. I enjoy hiking and long walks, so would definitely love an exercise buddy to help me achieve my step goals.
8. Jillian L.
“Jillian is amazing!!! She cared for my boys Oscar and Major, Monday-Friday afternoons for around 7 years. She was very flexible and reliable, especially with my changing work schedule. The dogs absolutely loved playing fetch, going on walks and all time they spent with her. She has been my saving grace while I work long hours and during the numerous trips I have taken out to Colorado to visit my son. We miss her very much!!”
9. Melissa H.
About: My family grew up with dogs and cats; the animals are treated as family. Pet sitting (and baby sitting) were part of the routine from early on. My Consulting work is done remotely, which makes my schedule flexible for Rover assignments, and, additionally leaves ample Time for getting out on the trails with tails. I enjoy being out-of-doors, and hope that some time outside is part of your furriends’ daily care plan. I believe in sticking to the schedule that clients have established with their animals for meals, toileting, play time and quiet rest.

12. Jade M.
“Jade was great! She watched our dog while we were staying at the Woodstock Inn. We went out for dinner and didn't want him to bark and disturb other guests. She arrived on time, took him for a walk, and was flexible with staying a bit longer when I dinner ran later than expected. I would highly recommend Jade.”
13. Angelina T.
“Angelina was an amazing pet sitter to our two dogs and cat. She kept us very updated with pictures and kept them on their normal schedule. She took them for long walks everyday and kept our cat entertained as well. They are always so excited when she comes over! She is always our number one choice for pet sitting and dog walking when we go out of town!”
14. Mollie M.
“Mollie was the best cat sitter ever!!! She really took care of my babies! Mollie went over and beyond like washing the sheets when they threw up and creating warm fun spots for them. I definitely recommend Mollie!”
15. Haley C.
“Haley was great! We have four cats, one of which requires a daily transdermal medication, and two of which are on special diets. We use microchip feeders, each one getting filled with different foods and portions, and requiring cleaning every few days, as well as bowls that need daily washing. It can be a lot to handle all the intricacies, but she did great with all of it, while still feeding our aquariums and watering a few plants, scooping 3 litter boxes, and keeping three water fountains filled. And still having time to sit and visit and play with the cats! She is quick to respond to any messages you might send. We felt assured that all our babies received care and attention. We would be happy to have Haley cat (and plant and fish) sit for us again!”
16. Rachel M.
“My family hit gold when we found Rachel to take care of our many unwieldy furbabies. Having someone reliable and trustworthy to give our kitties insulin is a must, and on top of that, she’s communicative and super friendly! We look forward to booking with her again in the future :)”
17. James G.
About: I have been taking care of pets for years from dogs, cats, snakes, birds... even an alligator! As a nurse, I have natural caring instincts for people and pets alike. I work from home daily and therefore have plenty of time to play around with my fur buddies! When my wife come home from work we typically enjoy family evening strolls, couch cuddles, and lots of belly rubs! We have a small yard and plenty of areas nearby for walks/hikes. We are able to easily accommodate the living environment for individual pet needs. We also have 2 very friendly fur babies of our own!

She’s always on time, pays attention to details and above all a dog loving enthusiasts that will provide the best and precise care a dog needs”
19. Alicia B.
About: I've taken care of many different types of animals including dogs, cats, birds, pigs, guinea pigs, and rabbits. They've been all different breeds and sizes. I am willing to travel to your home so that your pet can stay in a familiar and safe environment for them. I work full time during the summer but am available throughout the day to stop at the house when needed and am available for overnights. I like to meet with potential clients beforehand so that they can get to know me and that I can also learn more about their pets, house, and typical schedules. This creates a foundation of trust that is important to my business.
20. Walter P.
About: From raising/training puppies to saying goodbye to our senior dogs, I cannot imagine a life without them! Friends who know me have called me dog magnet. :) I may not love your dogs as much as you but I'll probably be a very close second! I will respect whatever your training and dog guidance needs are, minus the use of shock collars or other harsh means of discipline. I am knowledgeable of puppy/dog training measures to help your dog be successful! I am retired so can now do what I love! My schedule is very flexible. Let me know what you need and we can see if it can work out! I live on a dead end road and have a partially fenced yard that includes 2- 50' runs if your pup needs to be leashed. There is a park down the road and I am an avid walker and a believer that most all dogs benefit from walks and from being outdoors.
