Laura was a pleasure to have as a sitter! I needed a sitter quick to watch my doggy as I had to leave out of state for family matters and she answered! She was friendly, approachable, a pleasant to work with. Her communication is excellent! I’ll definitely be booking with Laura in the future!

Shauna was great! We booked her to house sit for 9 days. Visited twice before our booking to make sure her and our rescue dog were a good match. Sent us photo updates with how our dog was doing, and even went above and beyond by cleaning the sheets and towels so we got home to an already clean bed after a long day of travel. Definitely recommend

Jack was a complete professional during his recent dog sitting of our two dogs. He stayed at our home and was extremely attentive and respectful. Jack followed all care instructions and went over and beyond by taking our dogs to the park and playing with them frequently. He provided us daily updates and photos during our vacation that kept us at ease, especially while traveling out of state. I cannot recommend him enough, a gentleman in every way.

About: I’ve taken care of family’s pets and my own for the past 11 years. My dog is my baby and I will treat yours like one! Any type of help you need, I will exercise your pet, wash them, administer medicine. They will be well taken care of! Currently working full-time during the week. I am mostly available on weekends: Fridays: 6:30pm-night Saturdays: 1pm-night Sundays: all day I can make myself available on weekday nights 6:30pm - evening depending on the situation. Dogs will tell you what they need. I take them for potty breaks frequently and if they are telling me they want more play time I will give them extra play time. When they are more tired I will give them space to rest. Sometimes when they have attitude I have to be stern and tell them it’s not time for extra treats xD they like to be challenged so I do like to train them to do some tricks. My dog knows how to roll over, beg, and wait amongst several other tricks. Dogs like the direction and having a job to do. I have the patience to help them learn how to wait and walk properly on a leash without pulling. It takes time but it is doable!!

Christopher looked after our kids for 9 days and my old Great Dane just fell in love !! The young ones kept him quite busy and he diligently took care of each with a warm heart and lots of love hugs and kisses to all the fur babies . Absolutely fantastic to know you can rely on such a competent and friendly dog sitter like him. Got home today and my kids was over the moon .. Definitely a 5👌🏼in our books ..

About: I’m a dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets for family and friends through house sitting, walks, drop-in visits, and feeding schedules. I previously owned a beautiful Belgian Shepherd named Izzy, who was my adventure buddy for many years. After recently losing her, I’ve found a lot of joy in spending time with and caring for other people’s furry companions. I currently work a hybrid schedule, which gives me flexibility during the day to stop by for potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just some extra company and attention while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a long walk, overnight care, or someone to check in and make sure they’re comfortable, I’m happy to help. As a former dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands. My goal is to help give you peace of mind while also giving your pets the love, care, and attention they deserve. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family members while earning a little extra income doing something I genuinely enjoy. I'm available to stay overnight at your home Fridays - Tuesday evenings. I have a hybrid work schedule so I am available to drop in during the workday to provide any walks or potty breaks that are needed. I'm unavailable to pet sit, walk, or do drop-ins on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I can spend the night at your home to help ensure your furry companion doesn't experience separation anxiety. I've spent time walking dogs of all sizes, and I make sure to learn any triggers your animals may have before taking them on walks. I'll send photos of your animals while you're away to help you feel at peace and enjoy your vacation or work trip!

Raevyn was amazing with our senior dog while we went on 10 day vacation. She was timely and respectful, and always provided updates. Apple is not very friendly with strangers right away but with her she was immediately calm. Apple had a good time and we had a worry free vacation. We will definitely use her as our sitter in the future.

It was my first time using Rover since I don't have family or friends to help with pet sitting. Claudia was amazing. She got to meet my dog before the stay and my anxious and sometime mistrustful dog loved her. During the stay she did an amazing job and sent cute pictures and responded promptly! She's the best!

About: I am an educator and musician who loves animals and enjoys spending time outdoors. I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a child. As an animal lover and cat owner myself, I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s a dog walk, a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship while you’re away, I take pride in treating every pet with kindness, patience, and attention. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I strive to provide the same level of care and affection that I would want for my own pet. My professional background has taught me the importance of reliability, genuine care, communication, and attention to detail—qualities I bring to every pet care visit. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to arrange my schedule around my clients’ needs and provide dependable care for their pets. The safety and well-being of your pets is always my top priority. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and take care to follow each pet’s routine, instructions, and personality needs closely. During dog walks, I use secure leash handling at all times and remain alert to surroundings, other animals, and potential hazards. I avoid unsafe interactions with unfamiliar dogs and always prioritize calm, controlled, and positive experiences for your pet. For cat sitting and drop-in visits, I ensure doors and windows are securely closed, litter boxes are cleaned properly, food and water are refreshed, and your cat is comfortable and stress-free. I also take time to provide companionship and gentle interaction based on each cat’s comfort level. I am reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. In case of any emergency, I will contact you immediately and follow any instructions you provide, including reaching out to your preferred veterinarian if needed. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and genuinely looked after while you are away.

About: I’m an experienced pet sitter with a strong background caring for both cats and dogs. I have three cats of my own, including one with asthma, and I regularly administer his medication and closely monitor his health and behavior. I’m very attentive to routines, cleanliness, and making sure cats feel comfortable and secure. I also have an AKC-trained dog, so I’m familiar with reinforcing basic training, structure, and daily routines. I’ve pet sat for others in their homes and am experienced with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and following care instructions carefully. I’m also a pet photographer, which has made me especially patient and observant of animal behavior. I work from home, which allows me to be flexible and present throughout the day for pet care. My schedule easily accommodates feedings, walks, medication, playtime, and check-ins without pets being left alone for long periods. I also do photography on the side, which gives me additional flexibility in planning my day. I’m reliable, responsive, and able to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s specific needs. I prioritize safety, routine, and clear communication in every home I care for. I carefully follow all instructions and maintain a calm, clean environment for pets. I have reliable transportation and my own car, allowing me to travel easily for drop-ins, house sitting, or emergency needs if they arise. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, attentive to behavior and health changes, and committed to providing dependable, thoughtful care at all times.

Michelle was fantastic with our little girl. Usually Bella barks at strangers, but immediately took to Michelle. She took excellent care of Bella and even helped to potty train her to pee outside. Michelle is the perfect dog sitter. She stayed at our house and left it immaculate. Hopefully she’s available for the next 15 years or so to watch Bella every time we go out of town.
