“Jasmine is incredibly detailed in her daily updates, truly showing her care and compassion for my dog. I so appreciated her extensive communication and will absolutely be using her again!”


“Brittany was a lifesaver for me last week! I messaged last minute needing a drop-in sitter for my cat while I was going to be out of town. She responded almost immediately and was extremely communicative, providing photos, and lots of love to Rodger while I was away. She filled up food, water and made sure he had all his needs met. He was a happy boy upon my return and I am so grateful!”


“Dustin has made my first time experience with Rover amazing. He made sure to keep me updated with how Bella responded to him and took pictures on their walk. He definitely treated her like his own. He made her really happy during his visits. I would definitely use him again. 10/10”


“Brittney took great care of Luna and Nova. She came to visit them twice a day. She fed them and fetched them. She was very communicative. She responded quickly when I sent a text. She sent photos with each visit. She was cheerful and happy to help. Thank you Brittney.”


“My cat Luna is 15 years old! She was in wonderful shape when we returned home from 11 days on vacation with Kristy watching her. Kristy did drop in visits with her every day. She stayed longer than she was required to stay. Which was amazingly thoughtful. She kept everything super clean! Luna didn’t have any hotspots on her like she usually does when we go away. Kristy gave her lots of love! I got lots of pictures and everybody was very happy. We would love to have Kristy watch her again next time we go away. I’m grateful to her and grateful that we found this app so that we could find Kristy.”


About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including administering medication, senior pet care, and basic training for puppies. I treat every animal like family, providing a calm, loving, and attentive environment. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and ability to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. I'm reliable, flexible, and experienced with both high-energy breeds and pets with special care routines. Their comfort and safety are always my top priority. Although I currently work full-time, I make pet care a dedicated part of my evenings and weekends. I’m reliable with early morning or evening check-ins, walks, and overnight stays. My schedule allows me to plan ahead and give pets the consistent care and attention they need. I prioritize communication with pet owners to ensure routines are followed and pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved even while their owners are away. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free environment by maintaining their normal routines and surroundings. I follow all instructions carefully, from feeding schedules to medication needs, and ensure the home is secure at all times. I build trust through gentle interaction, consistency, and plenty of affection, helping pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. Cleanliness, respect for the home, and constant communication with the owner are top priorities to ensure peace of mind and the pet’s well-being.

About: I have 2 babies myself. One is a German Shepard/ lab mix and the other is a border collie/ lab mix. Both have different personalities and different needs. I love them both for who they are. I have never met a dog that is a stranger. Feel free to ask me anything else. My mornings and early afternoons are free. I get a little bored so why not get out and meet some new dogs and cats. That will will make life complete. I call my babies my princess’s. They are spoiled and well taken care of. They take multiple medications, so they have there schedule. I take them on 3 walks a day and they have their playtime in the back yard.

About: I've been taking care of animals pretty much my entire life but more actively and independently in the past 20 years. I love animals more than people - ha! I would bring home just about every shelter animal if I could. I love going for walks and playing fetch or just snuggling up with a senior dog and giving some pets. I've taken care of my mom's senior pups a lot in the past year, having to administer medicine and clean up those accidental messes. I'm also very patient when it comes to potty training puppies and I seem to have a calm nature about me that most animals like and are drawn to. I recently left the corporate world to start my own business and it allows me the flexibility needed for caring for your furry friends! I set my own schedule and can adapt it easily to accommodate same day requests as well. I prioritize consistency and respect for your pet’s routine. I follow your instructions closely—whether it's feeding schedules, walk times, play routines, or medication needs. I keep things tidy, give updates as requested, and make sure your pet feels secure in their own space.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a deep love for their care and well-being. I worked in a veterinary clinic for nearly two years, where I gained hands-on experience with animals of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet senior pets. I’m currently a veterinary student at Tuskegee University, so I bring both professional training and real-world experience to every pet I care for. I’m confident in administering medications, monitoring health needs, and making sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a veterinary student, I’ve built a routine that’s structured yet flexible enough to include pet care. Most of my classes are in the mornings and early afternoons, with free time in the evenings and weekends. I also have long breaks between classes on certain days and a lighter schedule on Fridays. This allows me to provide attentive, consistent care—whether it’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I’m reliable, responsive, and passionate about making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, safety and comfort come first. I have a securely fenced yard with cameras for supervised outdoor playtime, and pets get at least 30 minutes of exercise and enrichment outside at least 2-3 times each day. I share my home with two friendly pets, but visiting animals are never left unsupervised with them—I always monitor all interactions carefully. I also have a large crate available if a pet needs their own space or downtime. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I aim to provide a calm, structured, and loving environment where every animal feels safe and at ease.

“Kayla did such a great job watching after my pets! While I was away she sent great photos and all the pets looked like they enjoyed their time with her. I came back home and everything was exactly how it was when I had left. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”


“This was our first time to have Jessica care for our pups and the first time to leave our 10 month old puppy at home overnight. Jessica was great, on time, and asked questions if necessary. The pups did great and it was comforting to know they were well taken care of during our short trip.”


About: I grew up around animals all different sizes growing up. We owned a lot of dogs and so did many of my friends and family! I grew up making sure all dogs were well fed, groomed, and loved. Along with any medication if required. I absolutely love pets! I am a full time employee as an RBT so I work 8-5 Monday-Friday with a lunch break each day. I would be openly available on the weekends and after 5:30 on the week days. I live in apartment but there is a large dog park within my complex. I can play with your furbaby at your house, take them potty, walk them, feed them, or give them any medicine if needed.

“Stephanie did an amazing job with our 3. We were traveling for a my daughter’s wedding. During our crazy weekend, she dropped in at our Air BnB multiple time to take care of Jaxx, Rigsby, and Trixy, and ensure their days were somewhat normal. ♥️”


“Kaitlyn did such a great job, helping us with our pets this weekend. We have two dogs and three cats, and she took very good care of all of them. She was very attentive and communicative when she was over at our house caring for animals. I would highly recommend her!”

She cleans up any mess they may have made and plays with them a while before leaving them. She never made me question her being in my home alone and was always respectful of my belongings. My dog has also spent a few nights away with her and never had any issues going with her or leaving. She sends pictures updates and reassures you that your pup is taken care of. 10/10 recommend.”
