About: My experience comes from owning not just dogs (XL-XS) and cats, but many animals in my lifetime. To me, living with these animals is the best way to gain experience. I have also done many house sitting jobs for people with lots of pets, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy doing. To me, the most important thing is establishing trust with your sitter, and I am a guaranteed safe person to trust any animal with. I’m great at reading animal body language and typically do well with all pets. I work at Panera, so my hours are not crazy, and never are usually longer than 4 hours, so pet sitting works great with my schedule. My college is also online so that doesn’t effect my schedule for the most part. In a clients home, it’s important to follow all of the instructions they provide, while also making their pets feel as if the owners never left.
About: Have grew up around dogs my whole life. Familiar with feeding schedules, administering medication, dog body language, as well as poisonous substances that may cause them harm. I have my own trained ESA animal (Queensland border collie, neutered male, all vaccines). He does very well with other small dogs, but I can keep them separated if needed. I have open availability to drop in and care for your pets! I can make myself very available to cater to your pets wants and needs! I live in a home with my dog and cat! I have a rather high energy dog so I prioritize mental stimulation and physical exercise. My cat is 4 years old so he also has lots of energy that we get out by supervised outside time or physical play!
About: I’ve been the cat/dog sitter for many different friends for years, it’s my favorite job hands down. I’ll care for you pet like it’s my own! I currently work at a cafe part time, so my schedule is very flexible! I typically am free afternoons/ evenings, but most mornings as well! Currently I am not caring for pets at my home, but will work with what rules you have at yours if needed! If your pet needs to be let out for a few hours or food/water refilled you can count on me!
“I will definitely use Kelsee's services the next time we travel. She was always pleasant and flexible. I could not have asked for better. She gave us just enough contact with text and photos to keep us comfortable. We knew our 20-year-old cat was in good hands. She also kept the wild birds fed and potted plants watered. Thank you Kelsee!”
“Janet was wonderful and our pets got along great with her. She had to do cat meds for one of my elderly cats and that went great also. Hard to find a person who will do pet meds, especially cats! She took pics for us which was great also. She is a very nice person and we will have her watch our dogs and cats again.”

About: I have a three year old GSD of my own and she is quite the load, I have been trusted to take care of other’s pets while they have been gone when I was younger and since has inspired this small hobby! I am currently working part time and a second year college student, but I have flexibility with my schedule and would love to take care of your pet! I have a fenced yard with one 3 year old GSD, we love to go to dog parks, walks, and play with the sprinkler on hot summer days!

About: Hi! I’m Linda, a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for providing compassionate, reliable care. Growing up with dogs, cats, and bunnies all my life, I understand the unique personalities, routines, and needs of pets big and small. My background working in senior care and being a big sister to two younger siblings has given me a natural instinct for patience, attention to detail, and safety.

I also ensure your home remains safe, secure, and clean while you’re away

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve had experience with both small and large dogs, and I understand that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. From energetic playtime and long walks to cuddles, feeding, and simply keeping them company, I genuinely enjoy making dogs feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I treat every dog as I would my own—with patience, attention, and plenty of love! I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to provide attentive care throughout the day. I can easily work visits, walks, playtime, and check-ins into my schedule, and I have the flexibility to head over and spend time with your pup when they need it. My goal is to make pet care convenient for you while ensuring your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and adjust the pace to their needs. For drop-ins, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, water, bathroom breaks, playtime, and any other care. I treat your home with respect, ensure everything is secure when I leave, and provide photos and updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Hey there! I'm from Wilton, and I'm great with animals. What sets my apart is I have had dogs, cats and horses my whole life. On top of that I also have chickens, ducks, goats, and geese. So I don't mess around when it comes to animal care. Aside from providing exceptional care with my personal animals, I've also worked at a dairy where I milked the cows, fed them, and spent HOURS of time caring for them- so I'm definitely not new to spending some great time with animals that aren't mine. A lot of people I think come to pet sitting sites to earn some extra cash spending time with YOUR animals because it’s "easy". Truthfully, I'm doing this because I want to ease the anxiety of someone leaving their beloved family members (Yes I'm talking about your pets because they are definitely family) with someone they don't know, and provide others with the same amount of care and love I'd want someone to treat my animals with. My dog has a personal morning routine to get her hyped for the day, so I'm good with animals that need a little extra TLC! I work part time 4 days a week Monday through Thursday 6am-3pm. So for the rest of the day I'm free! I love to be outside and staying active so if your animals love the smell of the outside and having someone play games that get their brain moving- I'd love to help! I also do not work on weekend's so am totally free to pet-sit on weekends and weekdays! I live on 3 acres with friendly dogs, and lots of opportunity for your pets to be around animals they typically wouldn't see! I also have a kennel area if you would prefer that.

About: I love animals and I love being of service to dog owners who want peace of mind when leaving their pup for the day week or month! I am a full time dog trainer, the only thing I am currently doing is training and caring for dogs full time all day every day. I have a fenced backyard, and I will be watching your pup every moment of the day to ensure their safety. As safety is my number one priority.
About: I’ve been taking care of my own dogs for around 5 years now. I have two dogs. One a senior and the other around a year. Both are very loved and cared for as if they were my own kids. I’m currently working part time. My schedule usually fluctuates but I am mostly working weekends rather than weekdays. My work schedule is usually Thursday, Saturday and Sunday but I would let you know if anything changes. In my own home my dogs are allowed both indoors and outdoors. For the most part they are allowed on all furniture. If it’s too hot or too cold they only go outdoors to use the restroom. I currently work full time as a TA. My schedule is Monday-Friday 8am-4:30pm. Weekends work best for me considering I work all day throughout the weekday. Possibly able to work with you if weekdays are needed. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs that will keep your fur baby company. I can also easily crate your baby if that is your preference.
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for my own Beagle, who is friendly, well-socialized, and accustomed to living with people. Through daily walks, feeding, training reinforcement, grooming, and routine health care, I’ve learned how to provide a safe, structured, and loving environment for dogs. My home is a clean, smoke-free single-family house with a secure fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and relax. I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time so that every guest receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, quiet naps, or extra cuddles, I’ll follow your care instructions carefully and provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I have a PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences, so my background is closely connected to health, medications, biology, and careful observation. My training has made me very attentive to details such as changes in appetite, energy level, behavior, hydration, and daily routine, and I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, including medication schedules when needed. This scientific background naturally carries over into how I care for pets—I tend to notice small changes, keep routines consistent, and take safety and wellbeing seriously. I have a flexible schedule and spend plenty of time at home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I already care for my own friendly Beagle and provide regular walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I am available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends, with flexible drop-off and pick-up times. My home is clean, quiet, and dog-friendly, with a fully fenced backyard that I specifically designed with my dog in mind. I wanted him to have a safe and comfortable outdoor space for potty breaks, playtime, exploring, and relaxing, so the backyard was planned to be both secure and easy for dogs to enjoy under supervision. I understand how important routine and a comfortable environment are, especially when a dog is staying somewhere unfamiliar. Dogs are never left outside unattended and always have access to fresh water, cozy indoor spaces, and plenty of attention. I treat every dog like part of the family and communicate regularly with owners through updates, photos, and videos. Please let me know about your dog’s daily routine, feeding schedule, potty schedule, energy level, personality, and any medical needs or behavioral concerns. For everyone’s safety and comfort, I prefer dogs that are friendly with other dogs since I have a male Beagle at home. My home is clean, quiet, and pet-friendly, with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy supervised outdoor time. I have a friendly, well-socialized Beagle, so I understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable and maintaining a consistent routine. Dogs are never left outside unattended and always have access to fresh water, cozy indoor spaces, and plenty of attention.

“Celestine did a great job taking care of my cat! She went above and beyond. I was very pleased to see how well things went with the Rover check ins/cards and with returning to find that my cat was perfectly okay. Lastly, I just wanted to say she was very friendly to work with, followed the instructions well, and knows how to take care of cats very well. I would highly recommend her services.”

“Daniella did a great job watching our Goldendoodle while we were on vacation. After reading her reviews, I decided Daniella was a great fit for my anxious dog. Our first time booking with rover and overall it was an easy and stress free experience with Daniella.. She checked in on our dog once a day- She was always on time, communicated when needed, sent photos and followed our direction perfectly. We will be booking her again!”

About: I have been an animal lover since as young as I could remember. I can provide your furbaby with a loving home away from home. I have experience of 4 years fostering with local rescues and the Stockton Animal shelter. I primarily have worked with cats and kittens ranging from 4 weeks to adults cats. I also have a cat of my own, who loves the company of other cats and kittens. In my home there is a dedicated space to play and have access to a cat tower that overlooks a bird feeder for bird watching - this is an HUGE hit with my own furbaby. This room also is quiet and provides a calm and secure room for furbabies that may be a bit more on the skiddish and shy side. Ensuring that your pet is comfortable and safe is my biggest concern. I am second grade teacher and while the some days are longer than most, I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your fur baby! I have a cat of my own and playtime is an important part of our day. I will be sure to give your baby plenty of pets and cuddles. Ensuring that your furbaby is stress free and safe are my #1 concerns.

I also have an office space that doubles as a room dedicated to my cat that is filled with toys for enrichment!
