About: I trained my current and previous dogs and always cared for my pets. I work at a pet resort where I care for dogs and cats and enjoy doing it and do it well! I have also pet sat around my neighborhood and watched animals for years. I have a very open and flexible schedule.

I clean my cats litter box and let my dog out often during the day. I spend a lot of time with my animals as I am home most of the day and make sure all of their needs are met and that they are in a safe and healthy environment.
“I really appreciate Molly’s dedication on taking care of my beloved kitty. My cat isn’t used to strangers and most times when I’ve had to travel my kitty just hides when other sitters have come around. Molly didn’t give up and eventually my kitty let her pet him! That was awesome to see ☺️ (she sent many pictures every time she visited him) she also took awesome care of my plants ?!! 10000% recommended!”
“Chelsea was an amazing pet sitter for our cat! She was so friendly and communicated promptly every day with an update and pictures of our boy. She asked questions when she needed clarity and gave detailed summaries each day. We felt so comfortable leaving Leo in her care and would love to have her watch him again in the future. Thank you so much, Chelsea!!! Your fantastic care of Leo allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was happy and cared for.”

Jennifer D.
“Jennifer is my go to person for any and all pet related needs. I am also a sitter on Rover and when I have questions about animals I ask Jennifer first. She’s got experience with all kinds of pets. She used to breed springer spaniels, three litters all of them well cared for went to amazing homes that she still keeps track of and keeps in touch with them all. when I had an issue with my own dog, and the vet shrugged me off, Jennifer told me to check my dog’s flea medicine anyway,And she was right. Everything my dog was experiencing were side effects from her meds and we reduced her dose and my dog is fantastic. Jennifer definitely knows what she’s doing, and she will take great care of all of your pets.”
