“Angelica is the one you need. She was wonderful with my four fur babies! She has a peaceful and calm energy that everyone appreciates. She communicates very well, is prompt, thorough, and above all genuinely cares. I felt completely comfortable leaving my house and babies in her care. I will be booking with her in the future! I can't recommend her enough 🫡🙂😇”
About: I’ve grown up in a house full of dogs and still spend a lot of time caring for them today, including German Shepherds, so I’m comfortable handling larger, high-energy breeds. My family jokes that I’m the “dog whisperer” because animals tend to warm up to me quickly. I’ve helped care for both my own dogs and others whenever needed, and I truly love being around animals. I’m currently an online college student, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give pets lots of attention and care. I’m currently doing online college, so my schedule is very flexible and gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and spending quality time with your pets to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I currently live in a spacious apartment with plenty of walking areas nearby for exercise and potty breaks. I always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and cared for in a calm and safe environment. I’ll follow any routines or instructions closely so your pet feels as at home as possible while you’re away. 🐾
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was young. I don't currently have any pets as my and cats have crossed the rainbow bridge in the last 2 years.I love meeting new dogs and cats and love to respectfully greet pets who are out and about. I currently work full time during the day but am off on Saturdays and Sundays. I am available afternoons and weekends to accommodate weekend and evening visits. I understand that not all pets are social towards strangers both human and furry. I will take very good care to respectfully visit with your pet and care for them like my own.
About: I have grown up caring for and loving animals my entire life! I believe they have helped shape who I am and encourage me to work with all types of animals, big or small, energetic or timid, and even "difficult" pets. I have helped raise puppies and kittens, but currently my pets have aged like fine wine and have entered their elderly era. My experience consists of owning pets myself, pet sitting for friends and family, and soon I will be volunteering at a local shelter. I also plan on majoring in Animal Sciences in the future. I currently work a part-time job and we are in our slow season. I am available for last minute visits and walks and would in fact be delighted to spend my time with your pets. I have a keen eye for detail when it comes to potential hazards and make it a point to ensure accidents are minimalized. Whether it's tidying up to ensure your pet has space for their zoomies or regular potty breaks and mealtimes, I ensure they are looked out for and taken care of as if they were my own.
“I would recommend Madison to anyone! She is amazing - super communicative, great care for our two dogs, also nice to have in our home. She went above and beyond for our dog that was on medicine and had to wear a cone during her stay.”
“Meghan was great! She housesat for us for a few days and did a great job taking care of our three dogs. They can be quite a handful and also require some medication daily. She did a great job communicating and sent plenty of updates. She took great care of our home as well! We will definitely use Meghan again!”
“I am so happy that Ashley came to take care of our spoiled little babies. My dog Jack has the worst separation anxiety of any animal that I’ve ever known. He can’t be left alone, he will stress out so much, making himself sick and tearing up and house. Once he even chewed up the brass door knob. Ashley was absolutely wonderful with him, she was so patient and attentive to him. I thought our new Siamese kitten was going to worry her most but he was just playful and happy. All 3 of my animals were so well taken care of, if you need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Ashley. I will use her again and I will recommend her to everyone that I know 🥰”
“Savannah was absolutely fabulous! This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone who wasn’t family and Savannah blew us out of the water with how well she cared for our pups. Even when our plans changed very last minute, Savannah was kind and accommodating to help us make sure our dogs were taken care of until we returned home. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
“This is the first time I've ever needed to hire a pet sitter for my senior cat, so I was very nervous about having a stranger in my home and how my fur baby would react. However, Jennifer eased my mind about the whole process. She was understanding and communicative, which was greatly appreciated. This was just an an overnight trip, but she will be taking care of him again soon when I'll be gone longer. It's such a relief to know I can get some R&R knowing that my pet and my home are in good hands. ?”
“Colleen filled in at practically the last minute and we are so grateful. Clover, Loki, and Harley had a wonderful peaceful time with her while we were gone for the day. I highly recommend her and we'll be booking her again in the near future!”
“Miranda was incredible! She took such great care of my Charlie. She sent me pictures and gave me updates daily. This was my first time leaving my puppy for a few days and she made me feel so much better leaving him in her care. She kept my apartment clean as well. She was amazing and Charlie loved her! I will definitely be using her again!”
“Austin is meticulous, detailed and honest. He took care of my pups (Juneau and Denali) during a long international work trip and I was impressed by the care and attention he gave my pups. I will most definitely use Austin again since I know my dogs will be well cared for and I can't ask for anything more.”
“Jenna was very warm and my dogs liked her instantly. One of my dogs can be very shy but he really liked her. She was very easy to work with and communicated well. I will definitely have her take care of my dogs again.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have 10 years of experience dog sitting for pups of all ages and personalities. I also have a dog of my own and am comfortable administering medications thanks to both personal experience and my background as a pharmacy technician. Whether your dog loves walks and playtime or prefers naps and cuddles, I provide a loving, safe environment with a fenced yard and plenty of attention. I treat every dog like family and want them to feel right at home while you’re away! I work full time during the week, but thankfully have a flexible remote schedule that allows me to give your pup plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on weekends and can also accommodate evening drop-ins after 4 PM if your dog is more comfortable staying at home. I have a loving 3-year-old rescue pup who gets along great with dogs of all sizes and helps create a safe, friendly, and welcoming environment for your dog. I also have a fully fenced yard for secure playtime and take frequent trips to the dog park, while making sure every pup gets plenty of attention, care, naps, and cuddles throughout their stay.
“Nyah did an amazing job watching our boys for a week. She even took it upon herself to wash her sheets and their bowls. This was our first Rover experience but she made it a breeze.”
“Malia has been fantastic with our nervous shepherd, Selkie. I am very cautious about who I leave her with and Malia handled her fabulously, made sure she had the best time and keep us updated with photos the whole time we were away. It was super reassuring and so happy she could take care of her both times we have been away. Highly recommend and will 100% be calling upon her to pet sit for us in the future!”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I was a pet sitter via word of mouth in Florida but I just moved here so I'm trying to find new clients! I’ve cared for a variety of pets, from exotics (chinchillas, ferrets, squirrels, opossums, etc) to reptiles, rodents, dogs, and cats. I fostered exotics for three years before college and have cared for many animals with special medical needs as well. I am constantly around animals and love spending time getting to know their personalities and mannerisms. I am comfortable around all dogs or cats and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your baby! When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them like I love my own corgi, Winston. If they're social, I'd love to take them to the dog park or on long walks. I work in an office but my schedule is extremely flexible, allowing me to work from home on days I'm pet sitting. I am available for drops in or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings as needed. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I primarily work from home (remote) so I have a lot of time to help a busy pet owner out. I really enjoy meeting new animals and providing a space that’s comfortable for them. Since I stopped fostering, I only have a corgi who is completely friendly. If your pet requires full attention (or doesn’t like other dogs) my boyfriend can care for him :) I walk my dog everyday, usually for an hour to two hours aside from potty walks. I am able to provide medications, fulfill specific diet instructions and pet sit for as long as you’d like!

Cynthia was fantastic with my three dogs, especially one that experiences anxiety with strangers. They warmed up to her quickly and she sent regular updates and photos which helped ease my mind leaving my pups in the care of someone new. Cynthia treated my pups like they were her own!
Jenna did a great job sitting for our dog, Thunder. Our backyard was under construction so it made it difficult to get Thunder to do his usual pee/poop . Jenna was very good at communicating with us what was going on with our dog. She was responsible and neat!
Kiley was AMAZING!!! We are VERY picky about the care of our 4-legged family members & who we trust in our home. It's so hard to find a trustworthy sitter. Kiley went above & beyond in both her communication & care for our babies! We were able to relax & never worried while Kiley was in charge. She left our home clean & even washed her linens & vacuumed before leaving. We will DEFINITELY be calling on her again! Thanks Kiley!!!
Tracy was an awesome pet sitter. I have two cats that are not people friendly, but she came over everyday to check on them and make sure that they were taken care of. I was out of town and worried about getting a flight back home due to the government shutdown. She told me not to worry, that she would continue to take care of my cats until I was able to make it back home. I highly recommend Tracy!!
Shyanne was absolutely incredible! From the moment I met her, I knew my pups were in great hands. She followed every instruction perfectly, sent consistent photo updates, and treated my dogs like her own. I came home to two happy, calm, and well-cared-for pups and a spotless home. She went above and beyond in every way — it’s rare to find someone so reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring. I’d give her 10 stars if I could!
Felicity was great, very caring and patient. One of my dogs became agitated and missed me. She remained calm and understanding the whole time and made this a successful sitting situation. This was my first time having my pets sat for, so I was nervous about how it might go. She was professional and understanding with me; keeping me informed along the way. I trust her for future needs if needed. My cats absolutely adored her.
