Brandon visited and walked my puppy for a few months as he grew up. They developed a special bond and Brandon was always there to offer helpful advice. I highly recommend Brandon for all pet boarding related needs!

Megan was always on time and communicated well during each visit including great pictures! Megan went above and beyond for our kitties making sure they got their meds and cleaning up after them. I will definitely re-book Megan in the future!

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, bathing, and general pet care. I’m very patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s needs, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether it’s an energetic dog or a more independent cat, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m a student with a flexible summer schedule, so I’m able to give pets lots of attention and care. I’m available most days and can work around my class and work schedule, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on the day. I’m happy to be flexible and communicate to find times that work best for you and your pet. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I’m very attentive and make sure to follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any specific care preferences. I create a calm and safe environment and take the time to make sure each pet feels comfortable and secure, whether in your home or during walks.

About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs, and then when I was able to I had two large breeds of my own for many years. Currently, we have a 2-yr old Bernese mountain dog and an older cat at home. I’m a teacher with a very open availability during summer and would love to fill it with taking care of your dogs - any breed but happy to provide confidence for high energy larger breeds. I’m a full time teacher, so while weekdays do work, it would need to be around that sort of schedule during the school year. I can provide short term care on weekdays and more intensive care on weekends. During summer months I am wide open to provide care as needed. I’m an avid runner and LOVE to be outside so I’m happy to provide short or long walks for your animal. During summer months, my availability is based largely on your needs.

About: I’m a reliable and easygoing dog and cat sitter who really enjoys being around animals. I’ve had both dogs and cats for over 10 years, so I’m comfortable with their different needs and personalities. I also have caregiving experience, which has helped me become patient, responsible, and good at paying attention to details. I like staying active, so I’m always happy to take dogs on walks and play with them, and I make sure cats feel comfortable and relaxed too. I follow instructions closely and keep good communication so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. My schedule fluctuates daily, so I’m flexible with same-day appointments. I’ll do my utmost to accommodate your pets on any day of the week! I provide my dog with daily walks and administer medication and schedule vet visits as needed. My cat receives additional playtime with me, but if she shows signs of detachment, it’s important to respect her personal space.

About: Hi, I’m Aubrey 👋 I offer calm, attentive, in-home pet care designed to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and completely at ease while you’re away. I specialize in multi-pet households and have a natural ability with animals who need a little extra patience—whether that’s senior dogs, shy personalities, or pets who are used to a slower, more grounded environment. • 10+ years of experience with a wide range of temperaments • Especially attuned to anxious, sensitive, or senior pets • Experienced with multi-pet homes and complex routines • Respectful, clean, and mindful in clients’ homes • Consistent updates so you always feel connected and reassured 📸 I’m not just here to “watch” your pets—I create a steady, comforting presence so their routine and emotional world stay intact. Pet care is a central part of my daily life, and I intentionally keep my schedule spacious so I can be fully present with the pets in my care. I prioritize consistency, calm routines, and quality time—especially for pets who thrive on familiarity and one-on-one attention. All bookings, communication, and payments are handled through Rover for ease and peace of mind 🐾 Your pet’s emotional and physical safety are my top priorities. I’m especially mindful with: • Senior pets who need slower pacing or extra care • Shy or anxious animals who take time to warm up • Maintaining your pet’s exact routine, environment, and comfort cues I approach each home with deep respect—keeping things clean, calm, and consistent so your pet feels secure and your space is cared for.

Megan is excellent!!! I was able to go on vacation and not stress about my cats being well cared for. I appreciate the photos each visit to have peace of mind that they are doing well. I would for sure use Megan again for future pet sitting. She is reliable, friendly and did an excellent job with drop in visits for our 3 cats! We appreciate you so much Megan!
