Brittany is WONDERFUL! She looked after our Siberian kitty for 3 days while we were away for Thanksgiving and did a phenomenal job. She provided photo updates and made sure our girl was fed and felt loved while we were away. Will absolutely be using her services again!

Betty provided drop in service for my pup Roxie for for 30 mins a day for 2 weeks. This was my first time utilizing Rover. Betty has such a kind, sweet spirit and you can easily tell within minutes of meeting that she loves animals! She was also flexible with activities requests that were modified due to changing weather. Roxie was thrilled to be able to play fetch in the backyard or go for walks (if/when it rained) mid day every day! Betty was very responsive and interactive by providing pics/videos during her daily visit. I will definitely contact her again when future needs arise!

Taylor was a delight to talk to, and showed a real love of animals. She gets my Bobby- he is the shy guy that loves to eat, but not one to hang out. She took helpful pictures and made my time away, peaceful.

About: From the time I was born, animals have been a part of my life. My pets are my family and yours will be treated the same. I have a wide range of experience when it comes to animals and care for much more than dogs and cats. That includes….saltwater and freshwater aquariums, hedgehogs, rabbits, reptiles, farm animals such as chickens and goats. I will also water your plants, bring in your mail, and set out your trash cans. I work from home and have a flexible schedule and will make your pet a priority 24/7. Your pet will have lots of love and attention. I do not place them in a crate like they do at a boarding facility. They will be able to sit on the couch if they desire! I have a large yard and allow them to get the exercise they need. I live just across from Greenway and will take them on daily walks.

About: I'm available Mon-Sun!!! I have over 40 years experience, walking, training, taking care of dogs, giving medication. I've been rescuing for years and was a Petco groomer for a little while. I'm responsible and very loving to all dogs to all animals. Being responsible to you I will always be in contact with you through the phone and send pictures of the walks, and or the stay with me. I've taken care of my own and took care of Teddy and Sammy until they passed naturally with cancer. I have Nero and Feisty now. I've also taken care of friends and my families dogs for over 40 years. I walk my dogs every day even when it was cold out for many years. I understand how important it is for a dog to be walked, it's best for their health. I've rescued all my dogs, and have been devoted to the end. My home is clean and spacious, I leash my dog every time he goes out, as I would yours. I have a natural affection and love for all dogs. I take this position seriously, your dog is family and safe with me. I'm not working full time now, so I have the time to devote to you pup or cat. Please give me a days notice. Since we are in heavy tick and flea season please make sure your pup doesn't have any and is treated in case. Thank you I have a backyard with a tether, I go for walks in my neighborhood with mine every day. I'm right by a park and take pups there too.

About: What sets me apart is the personal care and attention I give every pet. I take time to learn each animal’s personality, routine, and needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I own a small business so I am able to make my own schedule if it’s at least a month out. If I do have events then I’ll be gone 4-6 hours max. Other than that I will try to be with your animals as much as possible. Every pet in my care is treated like family, with constant attention to their comfort and well-being. I create a safe, loving space where pets can relax, play, and feel at home while you’re away.

About: In addition to having dogs of various breeds for the majority of my life, I have been dogsitting for the last two years. I am also experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds as a result of working in dog daycare facilities and in grooming salons across the last three years. I also volunteer with the animal shelter in the area, so I know how important it is to meet dogs where they're at. I currently spend about one day a week volunteering with the local animal shelter, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I look forward to spending my time with your pets! I currently have two cats of my own, so I am unfortunately unable to bring any more pets into my own home. However, I am happy to enforce your pet's existing routine within the comfort of their home.

Rebecca was awesome! Met her a few days before we left town and both my pups and cat loved her. She went above and beyond with helping my animals feel loved and comfortable when we were gone. Great communication with fast responses! I will definitely be rebooking with Rebecca for my next trip.

Beccy is INCREDIBLE. She is a dog whisperer and knows exactly what our fur babies needed. She was flexible and patient and ensured our little ones had everything they needed while we were away. If you’ve got a smart breed, she’s the sitter for you!!
