“Michelle filled-in last-minute when our booked sitter from Rover was unable to fulfill the booking. She was fabulous! She came in advance to meet our pups and to get acquainted, She was flexible with her schedule to accommodate us. Her husband even helped out to backfill for times Michelle had to work (because this was last-minute). She took great care of our pups: feeding, walking, sitting. She sent us pictures and notes daily to let us know how they were doing, and even stripped the bed and ran the dishwasher before she left! We highly recommend her.”

“Lisa took great care of my 3 dogs (including 1 puppy) while I was gone. Additionally, tidied up (puppy, remember??!!!) so I didn't have "chores" to address when I returned home.”

About: I grew up with small, medium, and large dogs and my family currently has 2 medium/large dogs. In addition, I have extensive experience living with and caring for animals (including a summer on a farm). I have experience pet-sitting dogs (including rescues), cats, and birds. I would love to spend time with your pets over the next few months -- my schedule is flexible given advance notice! I have just relocated back to the US after spending some time in Thailand, so I am working part-time as I search for a more permanent position. I can house-sit, come play with your pups, clean your litter-box, or take your animals for a walk. I am happy to come to your space where your pets are already comfortable and learn their rhythms, routines, and needs. At this time I am unable to board your pets in my home. I am tidy and can assist with basic household maintenance such as taking out the trash while you are away.

“Vanessa was great! I was recovering from a hospital stay and needed all day sit in at my home to care for my lab. Vanessa was the perfect match and my dog loved her instantly. Highly recommended and I will book again as needed.”


About: On top of about a decade’s worth of experience taking care of family and neighborhood pets, I’ve spent the last 1.5 years as a professional dog trainer! I have a passion for pets and making sure they’re happy and safe. I have taken care of and trained just about every age, sizes, and personality type. As long as you let me know what your babies need, I’m more than happy to help! I am a teacher currently on summer break! I have plenty of time to focus on your pets and give them the care and attention they deserve! I am open to doing whatever your normal routine is! I have experience with all kinds of care instructions including first aid and medications. Just let me know!
“Ewa is such a great sitter. She just loves dogs (cats too but I only have a dog). It might be hard to trust someone new to come into your house when you're not home to take care of your fur baby, but Ewa gives me such a good feeling, I don't worry at all about the house or my Maizy.”

About: I have many years of cat and dog sitting including my own pets and friends and family as well some neighbors as well I love it I have open availability and love to spend time with pets at all times and would like to experience new adventures with some new pets I have a fenced yard and a spare room to keep them separated if necessary from my own pets we have small children that are good with animals
“Brandi was a great choice for watching our fur babies! She was very good at communicating and sending pictures to us every day. I can tell she truly has a heart for animals and loves what she does. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs ❤️ Hawk & Gingy can’t wait to hang out with you again!”

About: My whole life I’ve had animals cats dogs farm animals I love them all. I’ve handled big dogs and small dogs and have sitted for friends when they leave for vacation. I currently work full time but still have time on weekends and Wednesday evenings to take care of any pet of all sizes. I am comfortable with all pets My cat has her cat tower and clean litter boxes and she also sleeps in bed too. Lots of play time playing with her toys as well
“Abigail is amazing. We have used her twice and already have her booked for our week long family vacation. She is professional and very genuine. She sends lots of pictures. Highly recommend booking with her!”

About: Animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. 🐾 My heart belongs to my 8-year-old miniature schnauzer, my little old lady bestie who came from a tough past. Caring for her through trauma and anxiety has made me a more patient, attentive, and compassionate pet parent which are skills I bring to every pet I care for. Most recently, I welcomed three rescue cats into my life, and let me tell you, they have completely stolen my heart! Every day is a new adventure learning their quirks and showering them with love. Dogs, cats, big personalities, shy babies, I adore them all. Your pet won't just be looked after, they'll be loved, doted on, and treated like my very own. 🐶🐱 I can't wait to meet them! Working from home means I have a wonderfully flexible schedule. I already walk my dog multiple times a day and spend a big chunk of my time enriching and engaging my pets. Adding your fur baby to my routine would be a joy, not a chore. There's almost always someone home, which means maximum love and minimal alone time for your pet! 🐾 Your home, your rules. I'll follow every routine, boundary, and expectation you set to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and completely at ease while you're away. My goal is for your pet to barely notice you're gone (okay, they'll miss you but they'll be well-loved in the meantime)!
About: When I had roommates, they have a cat who has wobbly cat syndrome (Cerebellar Hypoplasia) which makes him walk a little funny! He can’t go more than two to three steps without falling over, and eating is quite a challenge. Having cared for him has made me really patient and understanding of animals. I recently just left a data entry job, so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets! I love animals more than people so they are going to fit perfectly into my daily routine. I would spend time with your pet as much as you’d like! I love spending time with animals whether that’s playing with them, giving them pets, going on walks or just being next to them giving them company!
“Lashay is amazing! She has sat for me a couple time now and takes such great care of my pup! She does a great job reinforcing the house rules and keeping my fur baby on schedule. She is an amazing communicator and I always know what’s up with my pup. Highly recommend.”
“Sara stayed with our motley crew of critters while we went away for a long weekend. They’re somewhat high maintenance and I left feeling confident they’d be well cared for. Sara provided updates whenever asked and everyone was happy and healthy upon our return! Thanks Sara!”
“Angela did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs and our cat. She was very responsive to our emails and provided us with peace of mind when she sent us updates along with their pictures! The house was immaculate and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Angela and we will definately use Angela again in the future!”
