About: I have been a house and pet sitter since High School while working at a vet’s office and all throughout college. I love a good pet therapy session to keep stress levels down for me and the animal. I have two cats of my own and know how important it is for them to get interacted with throughout the day when we aren’t around, as well as when we have our own overnight commitments to attend. I would be honored to get to spend a little time with your fur baby when needed! I am a fun loving, easy going, and pet (and treat) giving cat mom who loves both cats and dogs! I can’t wait to meet all the incredibly adorable animals possible through this opportunity. I am quite the stimulating pet parent! My cats even knows some commands and tricks. We love some treat giving, toy searching, and you playing in my house! I work for Rover fulltime, so I am always here. I have enough space, and gates to keep 3-5 dogs at a time, if the family is comfortable with other friendly dogs being in the same house with them. I walk all separately unless they are from the same family or the dogs are really good friends. We take about 5-6 walks a day around the neighborhood ranging between 20-30 minutes depending on the weather of the season, and even have a deck with a piece of “grass” where older pets can use the restroom easily or if it is raining, for a quick potty break. We have water in every room of the house, we love to give treats, have crates and gates for alone time if needed, and there is always an opportunity to sunbathe in our house or on our deck.

“Casey is an amazing sitter! We had a meet and greet beforehand. Usually Millie is a little scared of people when she first meets them, but not with Casey. Millie went right up to her and walked around the park with her without any issue. The day of, Casey sent us updates and photo of Millie’s stay. Millie had a good nap when she got home, so we know she had lots of play time to tire her out. We will definitely book Casey again!”

“Melika was great! Poppy had a wonderful time. 💖”
About: As a Mommy and animal enthusiast - I take immense pride and joy in my care for ALL babies! We tend to forget that It takes a village to raise ‘em right and I’d be honored to be the chosen addition to helping you raise yours. I currently work “on-call” meaning I have ample amount of free time to invest in to my relationship with your fur babies. Whilst I am a devoted stickler when it comes to scheduling, I also understand that life happens and flexibility is a necessity. I have an open floor plan in my apartment and a fenced in front yard for off-leash activities. The street I live on is quiet and family oriented with plentiful CCTV cameras.
“Makda has taken care of Kerry a couple times for us and has been great. Kerry was anxious to arrive and ran up her front steps when we got to her home. Makda sent us photos of Kerry’s stay and took her on a few walks throughout the day.”
