“I highly recommend Noah as a cat sitter! He was kind, attentive, and took the time to learn each of my cats’ individual preferences and made sure to follow them. Throughout the stay, he sent me daily updates with photos and detailed notes about how they were doing, which really put my mind at ease. His communication was excellent, and it’s very clear how much he genuinely loves animals. I’ll absolutely be booking him again!”

About: I have walked furry friends since 2019. I believe animals deserve to explore nature as much as humans. I also love animals. I own 1 myself Chihuahua mixed breed. One day my dream to help wildlife and make a program were we can save abandoned animals and bring fresh water and food to wildlife regarding global warming national geographic. I am currently working part time not full time so it can give me time for animals. It will give me time for your furry friend. I always make sure the furry friend has a leash . Always cross the street when there is no traffic and never leave them alone.
“Genevieve did a phenomenal job with my cat and gave him so much attention. He has separation anxiety, but he was in a great mood when I got home from my work trip. I will be using Genevieve's services going forward! :)”

“Thank you for taking great care of my dogs. Lauren went above and beyond taking care of our dogs and apartment. Our girls enjoyed their long walks and treats and were always so excited to see her when she arrived!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 5. I currently have two dogs one 8 and one 7 at my parents home where I currently live. My brother and sister in law also have two dogs 2 and 1 years old. When my parents and them travel, I am in charge of the 4 of them at my house and we are all on a routine where everything is under control and still having fun. When needed, I do go to my brothers to take them for a walk and play with them to break up their day of being in the house. I am currently part time worker, so I have more free time during the week and figured I could use my time to help out dog lovers like yourself! For dog walking, I will follow your instructions carefully to make sure your pet and yourself are satisfied with my job. I will be safe but fun at the same time making sure your pets are cared for properly.
“Jonathan was a lifesaver when prior a pet sitter canceled last minute, and in a way I’m happy it turned out that way! You can tell from the minute you meet him he genuinely cares for your animals like they are his own and makes every effort to show it. He even crocheted a blanket for our kitty! My husband and I never had to worry a day while we were on our vacation because we knew our cats were in great hands. We cannot begin to thank you enough!”

“Nicole was great! She took good care of my senior cat. She showed up when she said she would and I didn't have to worry about anything. I'd definitely book with her again!”

About: Hi there! I’ve had both dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals is truly something I love. Whether it’s tossing a ball at the park or just hanging out for some cuddle time, I always make sure pets in my care get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. This my full time job so you pets are my priority. I will make sure they don't feel lonely, get plenty of attention, walks, and of course treats. I am a military veteran and am trustworthy, honest, and punctual! I will always be there if I say i will. Please don't hesitate to contact me.

“Renee saved us when our planned pet sitter had a last minute emergency and could no longer come to our home to let out & feed our senior dog. Renee had no issue with such a last minute appointment and was absolutely wonderful. She asked great questions, kept us updated with her visit and took amazing care of our senior who has mobility issues.”

“Annemarie took great care of our kitten and dog while we were away! She provided descriptive Rover cards with pics that gave us peace of mind that our furry friends were doing well at home. We would definitely recommend!”

“I don’t want to leave a great review because we want to keep Carolyn all to ourselves, but we have too! Words can’t not describe how grateful and thankful we are that we had Carolyn watch our dogs. We had an emergency situation with one of our pups and she went above and beyond to give the best care and love to our dogs. Carolyn brought our dog to the emergency vet, waited til she was out of surgery and brought her home. Administered medication and communicated with us every step of the way. She offered great advice while never making us feel bad or guilty for being on vacation. 10 out of 10 and will definitely be using her again!”


“It is so, so great to have a sitter that is not afraid of my zoo! As the owner of two cats, ten geckos, and ten snakes, all with different personalities ranging from shy to outright grumpy, I am very comforted by Rich's confidence in caring for them. I am a total momma bear when it comes to ALL of my critters (even the bitey ones), and I don't even worry while I'm away on vacation.”

About: I have worked with dogs for a decade, from raising puppies to running a section of a doggie daycare. I love all dogs like they are my own, they are beautiful companions and deserve our respect and to be treated with kindness. I am involved with dog care from puppy to senior, involving diet, exercise, training, and giving some medications. I check every dog I care for from top to bottom before and after each session, and give a report of any findings to the pet owners after our session. Every dog is cared for according to their breed and temperament so to produce the happiest dogs! I don't use negative reinforcement in training or exercise. I work full time for a doggie daycare that loves their doggie clients, and have a home full of pets as well! Dogs fill up my day from beginning to end, and i wouldn't have it any other way. I believe in holistic care, meaning taking care of a doggie from every aspect. Making sure they are well fed with healthy food and treats, any allergens are avoided, excercise, love and attention, and training along with outlets for their natural instincts according to breed and temperment. And of course vet care and health and wellness checkups. By caring for all these aspects, it gives our dogs a life and health they otherwise are missing out on!
“Justina was EXCELLENT. She was very communicative and prompt. She treated my cat very well and kept me up to date on everything that was going on. I will definitely be reaching out next time I am out of town!”

About: I bring 9 years of experience as a trusted pet sitter, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, and attention to detail, I love walking dogs and spending time with animals I work full time as a certified dental assistant. My availability are Wednesdays (my day off from work, but I tend to work half a day) after 5pm on weekdays, and full availability on weekends When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize creating a calm, comfortable, and stress free environment. I stick to the pet’s regular routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided.

About: I have two years of experience with maintaining safe and clean environments for dogs within doggy daycare settings! I am comfortable with any breed and size of dog. I have experience with dog walking, redirecting behaviors, and bathing. As a dog and animal lover I have a few fur babies myself! I have a Pembroke welsh corgi puppy Finn that is friendly with all animals, a tortie cat Ginnie and my 3 year old Siberian husky Daisy. My parents have their golden retriever Bodie who lives within our home but separately! I have always had a passion for working and being with animals and would love to continue by taking care of animals in my daily routine Pet care is apart of my daily schedule- I currently am focusing on dog walking, daycare and drop in visits full time. I am comfortable with traveling and have a very flexible schedule. I am available for any services and meet and greets, please feel free to reach out to me! For drop in visits or walks please let me know if there is anything specific I need to know about your dog- Does your dog need to be fed and get water after a walk? Does your dog need to be let out in the yard for breaks? As far as daycare visits go in my home I am comfortable providing potty breaks in my fenced in back yard, walks and feeding them with plenty of water breaks provided. Our home is a smoke free house provided with air conditioning and heating. Plenty of dog toys available with additional small and large dog crates for feeding and rest time if needed
