“Lulu was great! She stayed on top of things with yeti! Always communicated with us to keep us updated on yeti! Will be using her in the future!”
“This was our first time using Cameron, due to a family medical situation we needed to be gone 10 days. He met with us twice ahead of our trip; once just to meet and then right before we left he came over so we could show him where everything was, how to take care of the pool, etc... He took care of everything needed at the house and was also kind and caring for our older dog. He kept in touch with us each day, and was not afraid to reach out with questions when he was unsure how to handle something, which I really appreciated. Came home to a perfectly clean house and a happy healthy dog!”
“We love Saige! She always goes above and beyond and has been super flexible when we need her to be. Most importantly, our dog loves her! We love working with her and are looking forward to working with her again!”
“Jessica was very communicative in her care with my kitties this week. I loved the daily pictures and updates on how they were doing while I was away. She is definitely a gem and I will be rebooking her care very quickly!!!!”
“Pamela was great! She was responsive via text and left the house in perfect shape. We felt reassured knowing our pups were in good hands while we were away for a whole week!”
“Greta was so well taken care of with Kamen! A great walker and even better sitter. She was so happy when we got home and can tell she was loved and cared for! Will absolutely book Kamen again for walks and out of town trips!”
“Torie took great care of my doggies and my home! She is always so sweet and attentive with my pups, and she did a great job of checking in and giving me updates while I was out of town.”
About: Hi there! I’m Citara – a single mom with a big heart for animals! I know how important it is to have someone you trust with your furry family members. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or cozy visits with your cat, I treat every pet like my own. Reliable, caring, and flexible – I’m here when you need me. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have flexible availability, especially during evenings and weekends. I currently work during the day part of the week, but I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends for pet sitting or walking. I love being around animals, so spending time caring for pets is something I truly enjoy and make time for. It’s not just a side job—it’s something that brings me peace and purpose. I provide pet care in the comfort of the client’s home because I believe pets feel most safe and relaxed in their own environment. I follow all routines and instructions carefully—from feeding and walks to playtime and medications—so your pet’s day stays as normal as possible. I treat every home with respect and every pet with patience, love, and attention. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I always make sure your pet is secure, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
“Would love to use Sarah again for her services. I came home to a lovely clean house and very happy dogs. I felt that’s he was very respectable to my environment and the dogs as well.”
About: I have genuine hand on experience with a multitude of animals and their needs. I feel comfortable giving medication as needed, taking an animal out on walks or to a pet store. I keep the pet on routine with what they normally know, trying to cause as little disruptions as possible. I make sure to give the dog space at their home so they know they are safe with someone new while they warm up to me. Because I’m already tuned into the needs of animals 24/7, adding another pet to the mix feels natural and exciting—not like extra work. Whether it's sticking to a specific feeding schedule, administering medication, or just giving lots of love and attention, I'm already doing those things daily, and I genuinely enjoy it. I offer overnight pet care, weekend or extended stay care, and per request care. I get a good pet profile from the owner so I know about the animal before meeting them and know what to do to make them comfortable or what to look for if needed. I offer day before meets so the pet can get comfortable meeting me before pet care starts. If I do single services, I will make sure the pet has their basic needs met before leaving, as well as any additional requests that might be needed. All owners also get updates on their pet, as well as when pet care is over for the day/ booking if I leave before they arrive.
“Kelly was fantastic! She stayed with our dog at our house for three nights. Our dog was so well taken care of, happy, and enjoyed his time with her. She kept us updated each day with messages and photos. We will use her again when we need someone. Thank you!!”
“Emma was great! She took care of our boys while we were out of town and they were super happy when we came back! I loved that she sent photos of our doggos frequently when we were gone and she gave us daily updates as well. We will for sure be using her again!”
“I needed to find a pet sitter quickly, and she willingly agreed. She took amazing care of my dogs. She sent updates and asked concerning questions that showed me she was not only watching them but really caring for them. So happy to have her watch my dogs.”
About: I currently work at a boarding facility and get to work with dogs of all sizes and temperaments! I especially do well with the pups that are a little more nervous or fearful as I’ve been working with dogs and have learned how to read them well! I love to see nervous pups flourish into who they truly are once they get warmed up! I am a lead at PetSuites so I do administer medication daily to pups aswell so don’t be shy about boarding your dog who needs medication! I currently work full time at PetSuites and depending on how close the dogs are to my work could swing by before and after work as well as on my break for potties and meals! On my days off I can spend much more time if not the whole day those days! My dogs at home are friendly but one is getting old and a little cranky so in home boarding/visits wouldn’t work best for me as it would likely make your dog more comfortable to be at their own home!
About: I have a wide range of experience with pet care, from pet sitting since I was a teenager to working in veterinary clinics and emergency care hospitals throughout high school and college. I am confident with dogs and cats of any size, breed, and age. Thanks to my experience in vet clinics, I am familiar with providing medication topically, orally, and nasally with both dogs and cats. On a personal note, I have cared for my own geriatric pets - my childhood golden retriever and several senior kitties. Pets that require dedicated care and frequent medical attention hold a special place in my heart. I have raised puppies and kittens and am happy to supplement training and treat distribution/reward systems as directed by the pet owner. I believe that pet owners deserve peace of mind because there is nothing more stressful than leaving a beloved pet in the care of another - especially if that person is not a familiar. As a pet sitter, I strive to earn the respect of not only my client but their pet(s) as well. It is a privilege and an honor to be entrusted with your fur babies. If you have special requirements or behavioral notes for your pet(s), I am happy to discuss them with you and ensure that you're selecting the best individual for their care! *My husband, Brandon, may join me for walks that are early or late in the day for safety’s sake. If that is anticipated, I will communicate with my clients ahead of time and confirm that they are comfortable with the circumstance. If pets are uncomfortable with a male, I am happy to adjust! I am available most weekends, weekdays after 6pm, and occasional weekdays during work hours (see below for more info). I am not available on Mondays. I work full time Monday-Friday; however, I do WFH one day a week, which affords me additional flexibility for care requests during work hours. For any weekday requests I would like a weeks notice so that I can schedule that WFH day in advanced notice. Thank you! When caring for pets in another's home, I follow the house rules, respect property, and aim to sustain schedules. For example, removing shoes while in the home, keeping pet care items in designated spots, staying with the pet if they go out into the yard for play or potty, following a training regimen, kenneling before leaving, etc. If you have specific requests for me, I am happy to discuss them with you in advance!
About: In the beginning, it was a cat. I was Cocoa’s midwife, she labored all night, as I helped her birth 5 kittens, while she sat in my lap the entire time! Then we gained a water turtle, and a golden retriever. Mackenzie was our first fur family member, we have helped raise our shitzu “Baby,” who is now 19 years old. We currently have Athena, Zeus, and Hercules. Titan passed on Feb 11, 2023, he was 15. Our Sons have Jack, a black lab, and Baloo, a Portuguese water dog. We also have a golden doodle as our dog in law. I would say my experience with different breeds has been diverse and impactful. I literally live for these guys, they are a part of my heart and soul, the love they give is so timely, consistent and unconditional. I give baths, trim nails, walk, run, do yoga, explore nature. I am currently a full time student and have not seen my dogs in their kennels for over a year now. Since I am home during the day, I have come to the realization that our dogs needed more playtime and less kennel time. I wake up at 0630, feed at 0700 then do class time/kennel time till around 11am. They go outside to potty and play, then come in after about 15 min. When Dad gets home, it’s walk/run time, then eat around 1800. We do this everyday, and on weekends we try to do a different hike. Like I said, I live for my doggos. We have a fenced backyard, trusting neighbors that know our pack as the dog family. We are friendly and encourage mental stimulation for our doggos.

She’s helped care for my pets on multiple occasions, and I always feel completely at ease knowing they’re in her hands. Citara has a calm and loving energy that animals respond to right away. She’s attentive, follows instructions carefully, and treats every pet like they’re her own. Beyond that, she’s incredibly respectful, trustworthy, and communicates well—qualities that are just as important when someone is coming into your home to care for your pets. If you’re looking for someone responsible, kind, and great with animals, Citara is an excellent choice.”

My partner and I have hired Ann multiple times now. I used to be a sitter on Rover, so I know what to look for. I have to say she goes above and beyond what is expected. She’s the absolute best. We feel lucky to have found Ann, and to be able to trust her with our dogs (one of which is high maintenance). She sends lots of updates, photos, videos and leaves the house exactly the way it was when she got there. If I could give her 10 out of 5 stars I would!
Lizzie did a great dog sitting with Bear! She kept her word and showed up on the holiday without cancelling last minute, and was on time. She followed our guidance on care and Bear appeared to settle in with her keeping to his routine. Will definitely have her sit again for our picky boy.
U-Nique was incredible. She sent lots of pictures and we could tell she genuinely cared for our dogs while she was here. She treated our home with respect and most importantly, we felt totally comfortable with leaving our girls in her care. We lucked out with her as our dog sitter! Thank you so much, U-Nique!
