“If I could leave more than 5 stars I would. Kathy is super nice & easy to work with, from booking to the actual drop ins to retrieving the spare key post-trip. She goes above and beyond, and I know my little cat is in good hands whenever I'm gone.”
“It has been so great to have Michelle caring for my dog. She is responsive, reliable, and most importantly my dog loves her. She helps out with drop in visits in my home and makes sure my dog is cared for when I can’t be there. She always makes sure to send me updates and photos so I’m aware of what’s going on. She’s respectful of my space and makes certain all of my needs are met.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Michelle! She was very responsive and communicative. It was clear from her detailed daily updates that she was very attentive to our cat and took time to let the cat warm up to her. 100% would book again!”
“Carrieanne took great care of our Duke. Our boy is a herding dog can can sometimes be stubborn and a bit difficult, Carrieanne knew how to interact and handle him like a pro!”
“Ilene was fantastic and went above and beyond my expectations which is so greatly appreciated! Ilene’s communication and timeliness is perfect and even provided me with adorable pics & videos of playtime with Rozz which warmed my heart while I was away. Ilene’s love and care for animals is exactly what I was looking for. I highly recommend Ilene for any of your pet care needs!”
“Marilia has looked after my kitty several times now, and she always does a great job. I appreciate that she patiently tries hard to make friends with her, even though those overtures are typically rebuffed by the aloof kitty!”
About: PLEASE DO NOT MESSAGE ME IF YOU HAVE PENDING REQUESTS TO OTHER SITTERS. Please understand that when you send me a request, I have to turn down other potential clients while I wait for you to confirm. Thanks in advance for being a considerate neighbor and human. I had dogs all through childhood and college, and miss having a four-legged friend around! Sadly, my own work travel schedule prevents me from having a doggo of my own right now, so I thought that it would be a good compromise to lend a hand to other frequent flyers who love their pup too much to put them in the kennel. Rest assured that your dog will not get just a 15-minute lap around the block to pee, I'll take him or her to the dog park, on a hike, or if your pup is more low-key, I'll totally snuggle on the couch. My pet ownership experience is mostly with big dogs (sheperds), so that's definitely my soft spot, but I've taken care of all breeds and sizes through volunteering as a foster with a rescue group in my former home of Washington, DC. I have a reliable car, so it's easy for me to get to your place to check in a couple of times a day. I work from home, so I am pretty flexible. I do live with a sassy cat, but we live in a big duplex where pets can be separated if needed. I will strive to stick to your pet's usual routine whether I am sitting at your home or boarding in my own home. They are already missing their humans, and maintaining their routine gives them one less thing to be anxious about.
“Jeremy was an amazing cat sitter! Both my cats were immediately comfortable and really grew to like Jeremy’s daily visits and play time. Super responsive and always sending lots of pics for me to check in on- it’s was such a relief to have them in Jeremy’s care. Highly recommend!!!”
About: As someone who’s naturally calm, observant, and patient, I connect easily with pets who need gentle energy—whether they’re playful pups, anxious rescues, or sweet senior companions. I’m a homebody at heart, so your pet will always have consistent attention, a peaceful environment, and plenty of snuggles. I’m especially comfortable with older dogs who need slower walks or extra care, and I have experience reading subtle body language cues to keep pets happy and safe. I treat every animal like my own, and I’m here for the quiet moments, quirky habits, and unconditional love that come with pet care. I have open availability so pet care is the best part of my day! I’m home often, love quiet routines, and prefer paws over people anyway. I provide care in your pet’s home where they feel most safe. I follow routines, give calm attention, cuddles, and keep their space clean and cozy.
“Stephen and Amelie are the best! They take excellent care of our babies and our home when we’re away and make us feel completely comfortable when we need to travel without the pups. Our dogs love them too!”
About: I have been house sitting and walking dogs of all shapes and sizes for 7 plus years now. I love dogs and want to make sure they get the love, care, and exercise they need! I have a fairly flexible schedule. I usually don’t start work until later in the day, so I am able to help get your dog moving in the morning and early afternoon. There is no better way to get your day started than with a good walk. My husband and I do work outside of the house, so we do best with pets that are okay being alone for a little bit. I make sure that all dogs I walk are on a leash and held firmly. I also make sure to stay on sidewalks and walking paths to avoid being close to the road as much as I can.
About: I’ve never NOT had an animal in my life, and Rover is a great way to be around pets even more! Life with pets is the best way to live ☺️ I work from home remotely full-time with a very flexible schedule, and love to fill my break time with a drive or a walk. Perfect for taking care of someone’s pet! In a client’s home, I’ll take care of their pets with any space they have available (indoor play, outdoor fenced play, etc) or walk the dog outside as needed!
About: I've been taking care of my friends, family and neighbors dogs for as long as I can remember. Anything from daily to week long periods I have fed, walked, and cared for those animals, as well as overnight stays at either my home or theirs. Pet care fits extremely well into my routine, I am an online college student with a majority of free time and flexibility. I am typically up early and readily available most of the time. I remain especially cleanly in my own home and clients, making sure to clean/ tidy up after the pet as well as stay attentive to their needs. Another way I care for pets is by enjoying their company, talking, playing and interacting with them on walks and at home to make sure they are safe, happy and attended to.
About: I have had dogs of all shapes and sizes my entire life. I’ve grown up responsible for care of my family’s dogs and now have two of my own. I have provided dog care for friends and family for the last few years including seniors and 8 week old puppies. My two dogs are very friendly and love to play in my fenced in backyard. I currently am a graduate student so I am flexible during the weekdays to check-in on dogs and have a flexible boss if I need to work-from-home for dogs with more needs. I own my house so dogs that are boarded have free access to toys and water all day. I work part-time on the weekends where I am typically gone 8-5pm but can still happily board when I am not home or check in on your pups weekend evenings. I have a completely fenced in backyard with plenty of room for dogs to run around and play. My two dogs will always be available to make your dog(s) feel comfortable and have fun. I have one small crate (~20 lb size) that I can use for crating, if needed, otherwise I also have spare rooms that can be used to secure your dog to one area if you would prefer, or would happily set up one of your crates for your dog to have their comfort zone.
“Lenys was amazing with my beagle. Very flexible and answered a last minute drop-in. She also sent updates and photos. Highly recommend her!! She will treat your baby like her own.”

Ashley W.
“Ashley is quite the do lover. She no only loves dogs but has tons of energy for those who like to be super active. In the time I have known Ashley she has not only watched dogs I've had and done an excellent job but she is also a former foster with a local dog rescue. When fostering with an off transport rescue you rarely know what to expect and Ashley has shown that she can care for many types of dogs of varying temperaments. The most memorable was very anxious and mouthy beagle who was later put on Prozac to help with her temperament and behavior. Ashley fostered Tallulah until she was adopted to later be returned multiple times because people just couldn't deal with the challenge that Ashley was. If I had a personal dog i would not only trust Ashley with its care but not worry because I know she would do anything she could to assure it's comfort and care.”

April C.
“April took care of my dog, Apollo, for three days and did a great job. Apollo can be a bit of a challenge—he’s protective in certain situations, especially during walks when we encounter other dogs or squirrels. I gave April a demonstration and specific instructions on how to properly handle and stay in control of him, and she followed them very well. Apollo is a bit of a Velcro dog—he likes to be near people but also values his space. April was respectful, attentive, and mindful of his boundaries, which I really appreciated. She kept me updated daily on how things were going and was honest if any hiccups came up. I also appreciated that she wasn’t afraid to ask for clarification when needed. She even took Apollo to the park and made sure he stayed hydrated by bringing his water bottle, refilling it as needed, and treating him to a pup cup from Starbucks. Overall, I felt very comfortable leaving Apollo in her care and would absolutely trust her to watch him again.”

Charlotte M.
“The first time my dog met Charlotte, she refused to leave her side, especially when she discovered that Charlotte is an expert at giving ear massages. It's a testament to how wonderful Charlotte is with animals, how gentle and loving she is that they are naturally drawn to her. When I thought my dog needed surgery and someone would have to spend all day with her during recovery, I instantly thought of Charlotte as a potential caregiver, and I'd trust Charlotte absolutely in my dog's most vulnerable state. Charlotte is an incredible dog mom and your pets would be so lucky to have her care for them.”
Grace B.
“Grace is a thoughtful, reliable, and loving pet caregiver. She treats our dog like her own and always goes above and beyond to ensure they feel safe and happy.”
Savannah D.
“Savannah is so wonderful! I have a husky who is high energy and can just be alot overall. She handled her amazingly with making sure she was getting all the love and exercise she needed. My dog was always so happy to go stay with her because she knew she was going to have a blast. She’s very professional and will treat your baby as her own. Her place is very safe environment. Will always recommend her to anyone who needs it! 10/10”
