I was away from my fur babies for a full week, and Emily was an absolute rockstar! Every update came with the cutest pictures of my pups looking so happy, you’d think they were on their own little vacation! Emily has the perfect balance of communication—kept me totally in the loop while letting me know they were having the best time. If you’re looking for someone who’ll love your pets like you do, Emily’s your girl! Highly, highly recommend!

Haylee was absolutely wonderful with Chestnut! She was great to work with, communicated very well, and took excellent care of him while we were away. Chestnut is a senior dog and can be a little more high maintenance, but she took his care very seriously and followed all of the instructions we left perfectly. We could tell he was very comfortable with her and well cared for. We are so happy with our experience and will definitely be using Haley again in the future. Highly recommend!

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. Over the years, I’ve shared life with a collie, two Dobermans, a boxer, and a pair of West Highland White Terriers, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every dog is different — some love long walks and playtime, while others just want cuddles and quiet companionship. I’m patient, reliable, and always focused on keeping your dog happy, safe, and relaxed while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of love and attention — just like one of my own! I own my own cleaning business and manage an Airbnb, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m home often throughout the day and can easily adjust my time to fit your pet’s needs. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, morning potty break, or evening cuddles, I can usually make it work. I’m used to managing multiple responsibilities and keeping things organized, so you can count on me to be reliable, punctual, and attentive to your pet’s routine. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I know how important trust and consistency are, and I always treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. Before each booking, I take time to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs or quirks. I keep a close eye on their behavior, make sure they have fresh food and water, and give them the love and attention they’re used to. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, secure, and loved while you’re away — and to give you total peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

Hatch and I love Anna! She is responsive, responsible and flexible. She goes above and beyond to love on my boy and give him the attention he needs while I’m at work. He always has a smile on his face in the pics she sends from her visits and that’s the best I can ask for. Highly recommend!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was young, from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with basic training, giving medications, and tailoring care to each dog’s needs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well-loved. I work from home, so your dog will never be left unattended. I’m flexible with walks and play and can easily adjust to your pup’s routine. Whether it’s a quick potty break, an afternoon stroll at the park, or extra playtime. I’ll make sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I have a fenced-in yard that’s perfect for playtime, plus two friendly dogs to provide company if your pup enjoys socializing. I’m experienced with crating if that’s what your dog prefers, and I’ll always follow your instructions to maintain consistency and peace of mind. I treat every pet as if they’re part of my family, making sure they feel loved and secure.

About: I have had my best friend Rocco (Dachshund/Beagle) for the last 10 years, Eva (Dachshund) for the last 6, have grown up with dogs and I treat every one of them as my friend. They usually do the same. I have cared for friends' pets as a favor years and decided to make a side gig out of it since it comes so easy to me. Anyway, I can't wait to meet your friends 🐕. I currently watch my sweet baby girl and pups while my wife works. I work rideshare when she's home. This leaves me a lot of time to meet your needs! I live in an apartment complex in the city so I staunchly will always have my dogs out on a leash with me. Eva is a very difficult breed to train and battles anxiety so I've become a pro at helping her avoid confrontation. All will be well on the wagging tail trail! P.S. I know when I use Rover, I like when they send me pictures. Just let me know if you don't prefer.

About: I grew up owning dogs so I know the basics for them. I more recently have gotten a cat. I have previously fostered 7 kittens at a time so I know I can handle whatever comes my way! I work full time on the weekdays so I have time on the weekends to check up and help out with your pets then! I can’t wait to meet your pets! I have watched and sat many pets for friends and families so it has given me plenty of experience. As a pet owner myself I know how to react incase of emergencies.
