“Lora is my families pet nanny and comes highly recommended. The place is always the way I left it, treats fed out, cans of food eaten and the pets in good hands.”

“Katie was absolutely wonderful! She watched our dogs, Nico and Nora, while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was always punctual, incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely loving with both of our dogs. She also made such a great impression during our meet-and-greet by being so sweet and patient with my little girl, which meant a lot to us. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such caring hands while we were away. Katie is truly a wonderful person, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter!”

About: I have had extensive experience within the environment of animal care. I have been involved in places that include animal shelters and even animal hospitals, and strive to put forth my best care that involves your fur babies! Afternoons/evenings work best for my schedule, but I can always work around yours to fit your needs the best! Right now, my schedule is very flexible! Even though I do not offer the option of boarding, I will strive to make your pet's safety my number one priority when I am walking them!

“Laylani is amazing! Our pup LOVED her. She was dependable and caring and I felt so much better about being away. The communication and pictures were so reassuring and my kids excitedly awaited her reports. Highly recommend (just not on the days I need her 😂)!”

About: Grew up having a dog (or 2 at times…as well as bunnies…and some other reptiles!). I currently live in an accommodation where I am not able to have a pet and I have become to miss animals more and more! There is no such thing as a bad animal, only a poorly trained one, and I treat them all with love and care. I’m available every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day (and night)! My schedule can be as free as needed on those days and I am open to spending lots of time with your pets to make sure they get the best care possible! I am very careful and thoughtful around pets and other people’s property. I will treat your belongings and animals with the utmost respect and care.

“Timothy is very prompt, patient, and thorough with his drop in visits. Showed up on time and made sure to hit all his items on the punch list I gave him. My dog can be very excitable and he was very patient with her. I was very worried about leaving my babygirl with a stranger and he put all my worries at ease. I will definitely be using Timothy in the future.”

“Daryl has been an amazing daily dog sitter for our pup during the week! Our 6 month old puppy is a handful at times and full of energy and Daryl handled him wonderfully. She did exactly what we asked and sent lots of updates throughout her visits. It was such a good feeling to come home to a happy pup at the end of the day. I would highly recommend her to care for your fur babies .”

About: Hello! My services offer walks and drop in visits. I’ve absolutely adored animals since I was little and have grown up with cats and dogs. I’ve been taking care of my own pets as well as strays and fosters for years. My work experience includes managing kennels at a vet, watching large groups of dogs at Beach for Dogs, and I was a bather at Petsmart. When your pet is in my care I can promise you they will be safe, happy and comfortable as can be every time. I’ll love them like my own! I am self-employed. I am able to work my Rover appointments into my schedule without any issues or potential of inconveniencing my clients in any way. I have a calm and nurturing energy when dealing with dogs to make them comfortable. It’s important to give them the opportunity to get their energy out so you can come home to a tired, relaxed dog!

About: Hi! I have hands on experience working in a dog daycare and training environment providing daily care and supervision for dogs of various sizes, ages, and temperaments. My responsibilities included monitoring group play, ensuring safe interactions, and maintaining structured routines throughout the day. I also have experience administering basic medications to dogs as directed by owners including oral pill administration while following safety and care instructions carefully. In addition to daycare care I assisted with basic obedience training such as leash manners, sit stay commands, and reinforcement of positive behavior in structured sessions. I am currently studying through Animal Behavior College focusing on canine behavior, obedience training, and positive reinforcement techniques which I apply alongside my hands on experience. I offer flexible availability depending on the day and client needs. I am typically available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, including weekdays and weekends. I do my best to accommodate recurring schedules as well as last-minute requests when possible. I understand that trusting someone in your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I always respect your space, follow all instructions closely, and maintain a clean, secure environment while caring for your pet. With my background working in a professional pet care setting, I’m trained to stay aware of safety at all times whether that’s properly securing doors, using leashes and harnesses correctly, or monitoring your pet’s behavior and well being. I provide reliable, consistent care and make sure your pet stays on their normal routine to reduce stress while you’re away. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. Your home will be treated with the same care and respect as your pet, both are a top priority to me.

About: I have over five years of hands-on pet care experience and currently own a senior cat who is currently 13 and a 9 month old puppy who I recently adopted. Both have taught me the importance of patience, routine, and gentle care. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including seniors who may need extra attention, slower pacing, or medication reminders. I focus on understanding each pet’s personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine, as I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of time and attention. I’m available for weekday services after 6 PM on Fridays, and I’m fully available on weekends for boarding, drop-ins, or extended care. This flexibility allows me to be present, attentive, and consistent with your pet’s routine. I focus heavily on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I follow owners’ instructions closely, maintain clean spaces, and make sure pets are always supervised and secure. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and individual needs, and I always prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and well-being whether in my home or yours.

About: I love staying active and spending time outdoors. Your dog and I will have a great time on walks or runs together! And if you have a feline friend, I’m just as happy to relax and keep them company at home. I’m kind of a early morning person so I can take your pet out in the morning for their bathroom breaks walks on a nice afternoon I wake up at 5am to feed my cats breakfast Make sure they have their puzzles filled in the morning and night to keep them Occupied/busy. Clean their litter boxes every morning and before bed .

About: Hello, I'm Rebecca. I'm 28 years old. I've always been an animal lover. I live with my parents who have had multiple dogs over the course of my lifetime. Being the only child still living with them, I've become their dog sitter anytime they leave for a trip, etc. I began experiencing disabling health issues right out of high school and resorted to dog sitting as a way to make money as I was not able to hold a "real" job. I grew to love it. I'm healthier now and looking to find more opportunities outside of friends, family, and neighbors. I would love to broaden my horizons and care for fur babies full time. I'm currently unemployed and have a very open schedule. I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs, and anything in between. I know how to administer medication and clean up accidents due to my past elderly dogs having health complications. I also have experience caring for rabbits and cats. After the passing of my 9 year old rabbit in June 2025, I felt like a piece of me was missing. Only a couple months later, I started dog walking for a woman in my neighborhood daily and it helped me through the grief of losing my bunny. That's what caused my desire to dog sit/walk to grow even more. It is said that "time heals all wounds" but the unconditional love from a furry friend really helps pass the time. I'm also a house plant lover. If needed I can water and care for any houseplants during overnight sittings. No more worrying about your beloved pets or plants while you're away! With me you can have peace of mind that they're all in good hands. I'm currently unemployed. I have a very open schedule except for weekdays from Noon-1pm (when I dog walk in my neighborhood). I have 2 separate church events scheduled on the 4th Saturday of every month. Scheduling walks or drop in visits can be tricky that day because the events don't always have a set time. I can dog sit at your home on those 4th Saturdays as long as I am able to leave for a couple hours for the events. During drop-in visits/walks I rinse and refill water bowls, replace empty treat toys, clean up any accidents that may have occurred, play with your fur baby to release any pent up energy they might have, and complete any other duties you may have for me. I pay close attention during potty breaks and notify the owners if anything is out of the ordinary. When dog sitting I can stay at your home overnight if needed. If not I can check in as often as you'd like. I can provide updates through out the day and pictures so cute you'll want to frame them.

About: I have had all kinds of pets growing up. I currently have three dogs of my own. Two girls and one boy. I also have worked at a pet store for the past 2 years providing pet care to 40+ puppies on a daily basis. Each of them are loved and cared for as if they were my own and I’ll be sure to do the same for yours! ❤️🐾 Although I work full time I am able to provided services without conflicting schedules. The daily care for your pet will be the same I provide for my own ❤️ My pets free roam the house but I have a doggy gate blocking the steps or any “unsafe” areas. I also have pet cameras placed in the main parts of my home. And bedroom doors are always closed for their safety 💖

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and dogs have always had a special place in my heart! Growing up, my family had dogs, horses, goats, chickens, cats, birds, fish—you name it. Caring for animals has always been second nature to me, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and family whenever they go on vacation. I understand that every dog is unique, whether they’re full of energy and love long walks or prefer cuddles and a relaxing day at home. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away by keeping their routine as normal as possible. You can expect plenty of playtime, belly rubs, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in good hands! I currently work full-time from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM and have an hour commute each way. Because of this, I offer boarding for pets who are comfortable being alone for an extended period during the workday. I am fully available on weekends and can dedicate plenty of time to your furry family members! I also offer evening dog walks and drop-in visits after work. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my schedule or your pet’s specific needs—I’m happy to accommodate whenever possible! Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, loving home away from home! I live in a top-floor apartment with carpeted stairs and plenty of windows, perfect for curious pups who love to look outside and watch the world go by. There’s also a private dog park directly across the street from my complex, giving your dog a great place to play and burn off some energy. My neighborhood is quiet and pet-friendly, making it ideal for long walks and plenty of sniffing adventures. I make sure every pet gets lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and, of course, treats (with owner approval!). My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away, treating them like part of my own family.

I currently own a golden retriever. She's a friendly dog. I don't have a fenced in yard my dog listens to commands. Leashes and yard leads will be used. At night dogs will be in their creates.

About: Since I was a little girl, animals have always taken to me in ways that I haven't fully comprehended and it's amazing to witness. I like to believe that they respond to the love that I've always had for them! With my services, I’ll make sure the pets are loved and cared for like my own, whether they be cats, dogs, or more! Rest assured, your fur baby will be in great hands☺️ I am currently in school full time, but am available in the mornings and evenings to care for your pet! I am also available Sundays for in home, drop in, or dog walking needs I can be of service in anyway that is needed!
