Ashley was amazing. She came the week before to meet us and the dogs. She confirmed appointments, gave us an update after the visit and sent pics. We love her and will be using her again!

James was great during drop-in visits with our two cats! His rover cards were very thorough, and he was easy to communicate with. Even our cat who is shy around strangers felt comfortable and wanted pets from him by the end of his time caring for them. I will definitely rebook with him in the future!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old! Friends, family and other relatives have relied on me to make sure their animals were well taken care of and I provided! I can pretty much do whenever! Weekends are iffy but I’m willing to make adjustments as needed to make sure your fur babies are okay and happy! I have a fenced yard and a dog of my own who I play with and take care of daily! We play, have potty breaks, I bathe her and she would love to meet new friends!

About: I’ve dog sat for a number of families and their furbabies over the years. I grew up with a rescue border collie and lived with a belgian shepherd (a former roommate’s pet) so I am experienced with high energy breeds. If scheduled far enough ahead of time, my work is incredibly flexible so I can work from home whenever required for about a week. Longer pet sittings I would need clearance from work. Otherwise I an able to do walks in the morning (6am) before I go to the office and can leave early for a walk around (12pm) to then remain home with your pet for play and more frequent walks the second half of the day. I have an apartment that has a dog park within walking distance. My apartment has a balcony and your pet will never be out there unsupervised or unleashed.

About: I have some experience with dogs. I don’t mind cleaning up after any dog. I also enjoy going for walks and playing fetch with dogs. I am currently a college student at Rider University. I have almost full availability to care for your precious fur baby. I’m available both before and after class as well as many nights. I can easily care for your fur baby with any directions left. I will be able to spend time and play with them while also making sure they are comfortable.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I often was responsible for watching, feeding, walking, and bathing my dogs. I also would care for other people’s dogs and stop in for a short while or to watch a home and care for a dog or two. I love animals in all shapes and sizes and would love to care for your furry friend(s)! I work as a lunch aid at a local elementary school. I work full time but will be available in the mornings, afternoons, and weekends for the most part. I live in apartment living with my boyfriend who works from home. I walk my beagle Strawberry several times a day. Strawberry is on a very tight schedule when it comes to food and walks which allows me to use time management. In your home I’d like to behave and treat your dogs just as you do. I think it’s very important to know the schedule which needs to be kept.

Ruth is the best. She is so reliable and good with our cats. I feel comfortable with having her do the difficult things like medication to giving them love while we’re away. And I love seeing the pictures.

Carly treats my dog as she would her own. She’s patient toward my shy pup and puts in extra effort to make her comfortable. I feel very assured Layla is in great hands when I’m working and would recommend her in a heartbeat.

About: I have a love for animals and taking care of them. I have always have pets growing up and i dog sit for my friends and family every chance I get. Animals bring me joy and I love the energy and love they openly give back. I will love your pets by playing with them, walking them and do what it takes for them to not miss you too much while their mom and dads are away. My favorite thing to do is give tummy rubs. I also will come and meet your fur baby in advance so both you and them feel save and comfortable. I will also send pictures and selfies that way you know your fur baby is happy and doing well. I am currently working a part time job which gives me a flexible schedule to hang out with new animal friends and spend time with them. I have a fenced in yard/play area at home. I also know where to find really cool animal parks where I can take fur friends to enjoy a nice day out.

I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter. From the very first moment, it was clear that Ella truly understands cats—not just their routines, but their emotions, boundaries, and quiet language. My cats felt safe and genuinely cared for, which says everything. Ella has what I can only describe as soul cat energy: patient, intuitive, and deeply kind. She went above and beyond, not just making sure everything was done, but making sure my cats felt loved. Ella is a true star and a rare find.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m calm, patient, and always pay attention to what the dog needs, whether that’s play, rest, or just quiet company. I also keep owners updated so they feel connected and worry-free. This isn’t just a gig for me, I actually care about the pets I watch Currently I have no job so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I will make sure your pet has an amazing time I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I keep their feeding, walks, and playtime consistent, and I give them lots of attention so they don’t feel alone. I also keep the home clean and secure, and I stay in touch with regular updates and photos.

Regina did a great job with a drop in visit for my diva Cavalier! She even took the initiative to come to my house before the booking to review my protocol and preferences. The booking went smoothly today and I’ve already scheduled Regina for two more bookings next week. Highly recommend!

About: I have had a dog in my home since I was born. I was tasked with walking, feeding, and playing with the family dogs as a kid and I always enjoyed seeing their tails wag with joy. I have loved and cared for many dogs some big, some small, some calm and some energetic. I currently live with my 5 year old Sheepadoodle named Nash who is big enough to pay bills and takes up my entire king sized bed. I have had him since he was just a few weeks old and I understand the importance of proper care and attention. I am a shift worker who works longer hours in condensed days. This schedule allows me to have many days off both during the week and weekend to provide your pet with the care he/she deserves. My beautiful girlfriend is also a dog lover who can assist whenever needed. Pets are part of the family. They will have access to a fully fenced in yard, a swim in the pool (if allowed), lots of potty breaks and plenty of fresh food and water. They will have many friends to play with, both human and canine.

Sabrina is very gentle and loving with Susu, I've never seen my cat warm up so fast to a stranger. Sabrina also does an amazing job at effortlessly giving him his required medication, offering him treat rewards, and keeping him happy by giving him enough attention through pets and play time. She's great at making Susu feel less lonely and comfortable, with the way Susu loves sitting on her lap. Will definitely contact her again for future visits!

About: I'm comfortable taking care of dogs of all kinds and sizes. I enjoy walking them, playing with them, cuddling them, and bathing them if needed! I'm currently work from home Mondays and Fridays so I can be super flexible those two days. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays I work in the office so morning and evening hours are preferred but some weeks throughout the summer I can also be flexible as my schedule is a lot lighter. Weekends are also flexible! I'm open to caring for your dog however you would like me to care for them in the environment that they are most comfortable! I enjoy getting exercise so I would be more than happy to walk your dog or play in the yard if you have a fenced in yard.

Very kind and responsive. She was able to understand instructions and was empathetic for our dog who is very shy and requires some patience.

Neha was amazing with my 6 month old puppy who is still nervous and shy with new people and going potty on the leash. She was very good at communicating with me ahead of time and during the visit. She was so sweet and patient with my puppy!

It was a pleasure to have Nicholas take care of our dog, Axle. During our leave, he visited Axle at home, played with him and walked him daily. Nicholas is very professional and respectful. We definitely recommend him and look forward to having him watch Axle again in the future.
