“Veronica was a pleasure to work with. She took special care of our Izzy while we were on a family trip to Montana. My baby doesn't take to many people but, they got along great. Veronica was nice enough to send me a text now and then to ease my stress of leaving Izzy behind. (first time apart) I look forward to having Veronica stay with our girl again on a future trip. SD”

About: I’ve have experience with puppies and senior dogs for 10+ years. In addition to dogs, I’ve lived on a farm for 10 years. Animal care is my number one priority. I always have free time in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings to check in and play with your dog. I can also make time to stop by more often if need be. With having my own pets, I understand what it takes to provide proper care on a daily and weekly basis. I will take care of your dog as if it were my own.

About: Hey! I’m a 22 year old nurse looking for a side gig and to snuggle with some pets! I’ve had golden retrievers my whole life, and 2 kitties! I’ve had dogs from 2 months-15 years, and cats 6 weeks to 18 years! I will send pictures and updates with every visit, and be respectful of your home. I’d love to help with your furry friends 🤗 I currently work 3, 12 hour night shifts a week, so I’ll have plenty of time to walk and play with your furry friends! I love going on walks, and taking dogs with me makes it so much more fun! I also love cuddling with puppies and kitties, and playing with them in your home!
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs in Buffalo, where I looked after two dogs, including a Newfoundland and a pit bull mix. I stayed in the owner's home for several days while they were away, making sure the dogs were comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I provided daily walks, playtime in the yard, feeding on schedule, fresh water, and treats as instructed. After that, I continued caring for them with drop-in visits, coming in the mornings, evenings, and during the day on weekends. I am responsible, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with dogs. I always follow the owner's instructions and make sure each pet feels happy, safe, and loved. I have a flexible schedule and can provide pet care during weekdays and weekends. I am available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting. I can visit in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on your pet’s needs. I am reliable and will always arrive on time. I always prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet in my care. I carefully follow all owner instructions, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention. I respect each pet’s personality and boundaries, especially with cats or shy animals. I create a calm and safe environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you are away.
About: I've always been an animal lover and have spent years caring for pets for family, friends, neighbors, and my dad's clients. Being the person people trust with their pets is something I take seriously and truly enjoy. I love getting to know each pet's personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, cat care, or house sitting, I treat every pet like part of the family. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. Right now, I have an open and flexible schedule while I’m looking for work, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the day. I offer dependable, detail-oriented pet care for dogs, cats, and small animals such as rabbits, reptiles, and fish. My approach is centered on consistency, safety, and comfort following each pet’s routine closely while providing calm, attentive care. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, walks, or companionship, I make sure every pet feels relaxed, respected, and cared for like family.
About: I’ve always had animals my entire life of all sorts and prefer their company. Naturally animals are comfortable in my presence. I am basically Snow White. Pet care is a regular part of my routine that I could easily adapt to your requirements. I work a few hour during the week for a few days and have plenty of time to accommodate your needs. I have fenced yard if necessary for run time. But I can make time to visit the home of your pets for their comfort ability.

About: I’ve been dog/cat/house sitting since I was about 14! What started out as something I could do for a little extra money quickly turned into something I have a strong passion for and through that I have gained reliable clients and relationships! I have been taking care of many animals through those years and have grown to appreciate each breed as their own individual! Though I’m not specialized in animal care my love, vigilance and passion for helping and taking care of animals makes up for that. I’ve had three cats and a big dog. My latest cat is blind so I’m familiar with some medical care as well! And if you have a reptile (no venomous) no worries! I have experience with them as well as I have my own leapord gecko! I know everyone wants someone loving, reliable and trustworthy to watch over their fur babies and I will not disappoint! On a typical day in the summer I usually have off as I work full time during the school year. Which leaves me free during the day and night for visits or to watch over night. I am free to watch, walk or just play with your fur baby at any time! I typically will do a no charge visit prior to me meeting a new client and animal/s to get a feel for their environment and how your day to day typically runs so I know their routine. I try not to disrupt their normal routine as much as possible! Once we have established the routine I will follow it depending on your specifications! I have experience with all shapes and sizes. I typically bring in mail and packages, water plants and light cleaning if you so desire. It’s all what you’d like! It’s you and your fur babies world I’m just living in it!
“Kayla was great! She house sat for me and my cat for a few days. She hung out with him even if all he wanted to do was sleep on her lap. When she came for a meet and greet I learned she had to move to another state right around the time of my house sit, but despite that she didn't cancel and didn't even consider cancelling, even though it was probably an inconvenience for her to keep the job. I always look for last minute cancellations on reviews so to me the fact that she kept the job, even though it was a small one and probably inconvenient for her, speaks volumes about her reliability. She was even nice enough to give me a direct contact phone number for my peace of mind, I had an experience where I tried to call the Rover phone number and it didn't go thru so I always ask for real phone numbers. She was also great with my cat and really sweet to him even though he woke her up at 2am! Thanks so much kayla”

We cannot say enough good things about Lauren! She took incredible care of our dogs, and it was so clear from the moment we got home how loved and well cared for they were. Our pups absolutely adore her — which says everything. We are so grateful for Lauren and will absolutely be booking her again and again. Highly, highly recommend! 🐾💕

Lauren is Beyond Fantastic! She took Excellent care of my 3 dogs. I just moved to this area and was worried about finding a new sitter. No worries needed! If I had a guest house, I would offer her a well paid permanent job! She is a wonderful person and a wonderful sitter/walker!
Veronica was a pleasure to work with. She took special care of our Izzy while we were on a family trip to Montana. My baby doesn't take to many people but, they got along great. Veronica was nice enough to send me a text now and then to ease my stress of leaving Izzy behind. (first time apart) I look forward to having Veronica stay with our girl again on a future trip. SD
