“Alicia was great with our girls. One of our girls is still adjusting to our house. Her quiet steps in the house is just what she needed. Communication was excellent and flexible.”
“Natalie was great!! She took great care of the cats, bearded dragon and even my plants while I was gone! I was sent lots of cute pictures of the pets and her playing with them and I knew they were in good hands. She treated the pets and house like it was her own and made sure everything was how we would like it. 100% recommend!”
“Heather watched my kitties for the 2nd time and she did as amazing as the first time. She kept me posted throughout every visit and tidied up every mess my kitties made. Thank you so much, Heather!”
“Lisa is awesome! She was able to help out last minute and she did a phenomenal job dropping in on my dogs. They are happy and so am I. I plan to use her again in the future.”
“Having two mature cats, one 20 years old and the other 10, I was a bit apprehensive about leaving them in the care of someone I didn’t know. Luckily, through Rover, we found Briana J. who took the time to meet with us prior to our departure. Any qualms we had were dispelled by her willingness to familiarize herself with our kitties. The wonderful photos and narratives of each visit proved we had left Ellie and Oliver in good hands. Would certainly recommend Briana J. to friends and family.”
“Emilie was great with our puppy, Shasta! She came by twice in one evening—once for a potty break and some playtime, and then again later for dinner, another potty break, and more play. Emilie was perfectly on time for both visits, took great photos, and spent quality time with Shasta during each drop-in. When we got home, Shasta was a happy and tired pup—and, coincidentally, she slept in until 8am for the first time ever! She must’ve felt content and well cared for. We really appreciated Emilie’s attention and care, and would definitely recommend her!”
“Melissa was absolutely amazing with our kitty and truly went above and beyond with caring for him and our home while we were away. Honestly felt completely at ease by day 2, knowing she had everything under control and the kitty was happy.”
About: I grew up with a 60 lb dog and cats in my house my whole life. I have been caring for friends and neighbors pets for about 5 years now. I am always excited to board dogs in my home! I look forward to taking them for walks, playing with them in our fenced in yard and following bedtime routines for them. I love dog kisses and wagging tails! I have experience with senior dogs and pups with anxiety. I can also drop in to take care of your cats in your home as well. I hope to get to meet your fur babies soon! I have plenty of availability and flexibility in my schedule. For boarding, I am home all the time but in the chance that I am out, my family (all adults) is usually home. So your pet will rarely be alone. I am offering overnight boarding in my home. We are a family of 4 adult so there is almost always someone home. We do have 2 cats. They usually avoid and stay out of the way of any dog visitors. We have a fenced in yard for your dog to run, but I will also take them for walks around the neighborhood.
“Lauryn did an amazing job watching our two cats. We found out shortly before our trip that one of our cats had a health issue and the other car began “forgetting” to use the litter pan. Lauryn handled our cat’s issues with professionalism and showed a true understanding of our cat’s personalities. We received regular updates and many photos which assured us that all was well at home. Thanks to Lauryn we could relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our fur babies were in good hands. I highly recommend Lauryn if you need a sitter for your cats.”
About: You and your pet will love me because I am responsible, dependable, and an animal lover. I have experience taking care of dogs of varying ages as well as dogs with varying needs. While living in NJ, I cared for a golden retriever puppy as well as a senior golden retriever. I feel comfortable with administering medicine and you can feel comfortable knowing that I follow directions and routines precisely. Recently, I worked with two senior pugs who needed medicine daily and had special routines. I am an active person and enjoy taking long walks with dogs to keep them active as well. I am currently an elementary school teacher and am free evenings and weekends. However, during the summer months, I have a very flexible schedule and am available many days, evenings, and weekends.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love and hands-on experience with dogs. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments—from playful puppies to senior companions. I’ve had my own dog since I was 12 and have looked after many neighborhood pets over the years. I recently adopted a one-year-old rescue, giving me even more insight into training, patience, and daily care. I treat every dog like family and understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s hands. I’m reliable, attentive, and truly enjoy building bonds with every pup I meet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make time for. I prioritize staying active, and walks or playtime with dogs are a perfect way to combine that with doing something meaningful. I’m starting nursing school in the winter, so right now I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. Even once school begins, I plan to continue offering care around my class schedule because spending time with dogs brings balance and joy to my week. For drop-in visits, I focus on providing attentive, personalized care—whether it’s feeding, playtime, potty breaks, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away. I follow your pet’s routine closely to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. If your dog enjoys socializing, I can bring my friendly, well-behaved pup along for a fun play date. I also offer the option for your dog to visit my fully fenced-in yard, where they can run, play, and even cool off in the pool under close supervision. I treat every visit like it’s my own pet I’m caring for.
About: Experienced working with a variety of animals- dogs, cats, chickens, goats, aquatic pets (turtles, frogs, fish, etc.). Experience as a vet assistant provides strong foundation in caring for medically complex and senior pets, comfortable administering medications. While on break from school until May 2026, I have gaps in my schedule that will allow me to frequently check in on your pets throughout the day. Currently care for my two pups at home. I enjoy pet care as it helps to provide a purposeful break from school. Caring for animals feels like second nature with my schedule, and I’m able to seamlessly provide for your pets while maintaining my school schedule without any lapse in care. I provide a close eye on the animals that I care for, and due to my experience as a veterinary assistant I am able to recognize potential medical needs of your animal companions. I’m comfortable walking pets, supervising them in a fenced in yard, or any other method that your pet uses to go outside! While in your home, I maintain close proximity to your pets, and engage them in enriching activities during my time with them.
“Kelly took great care of our three cats and made sure to give us great daily updates and photos. This was our second year booking her for our pet sitter and we would recommend her highly and will reach out again for our next vacation.”
“Kim is Amazing! Takes great care of our Cali Cat! Reliable, professional and very loving towards animals. Even did a last minute drop in on my 2 puppy nephews with 1 day notice. Kim goes above and beyond - highly recommended!!!”
“Sophie was amazing and accommodating us last minute and checking in on our puppy, Remi! She communicated well and our dog was happy to see her when she came to check in and walk her. Sophie even was available for a last minute meet & greet to get to know our shy pup before checking in on her later that week. Thank you so much Sophie!”
“Alyssa’s communication is great and she responds fast. We feel comfortable with her looking over our two cats when we are gone. She is very kind and our cat Abby loves her visits! It feels great to find someone reliable and trustworthy for our two fur babies.”
