“Melanie was kind, flexible, and skillful in watching my Stella! There was an issue with my apartment coordinating a key drop off, and Melanie solved for that in the smartest way possible. Will definitely book her again!”

“Ali has been dog/house-sitting for us for the better part of the last year and she’s been absolutely amazing. Our three pups absolutely love her, maybe even more than they love us! She’s always consistent and respectful of our space. The ultimate test of her skills was when our youngest had her puppies five days early while we were away. Ali was a true hero in that moment and cleared her schedule to be with mama and the babies until we could get home. She’s got our love and our trust!”

“Amazingly reliable, super communicative, and absolutely on top of it. Can’t recommend Makeda enough. She took a weight off our shoulders while we went out of town by always updating us and letting us know what was going on. We appreciate her immensely and she’ll definitely be our first call for next time.”


“Lillian was great! She kept me updated and sent photos! She was very thoughtful like asking if my pup was scared of thunderstorms since it was going to rain.

About: I have been dog sitting for about a year but only for one family and i would like to expand my horizons! There was never a moment where i didn’t have a dog in the house, i’ve always grown up with them. I have had a range of small or very large dogs and i’m ready for any and all the cute fur babies i can watch over and play with! I am currently going to school full time so my school starts at 9AM - 5:30PM Monday - Thursday and then i will most likely be working at least 6 hours at a time Friday - Saturday. I know my schedule doesn’t work for everyone and it’s not super open for spending a lot of time but if you do decide to book me i promise to take care or and spend the most time with your pup as i can! All i need are set instructions for you doggie such as times to feed and be let out. I’ll make time for play time and walks if needed as well and i will ALWAYS be ready for cuddles.

“Dominique did great watching our dogs. We got plenty of updates during our trip. During some travel troubles they were very flexible in taking them out again. Thanks!”


About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I treat and care for every pet as my own. I love all type of animals and they all bring such joy into my life Well it’s already been apart of my routine since I was little. Iv had pets in my life for as long as I can remember. Iv had pets my whole life and can guarantee your fur baby will be well taken care of. If your pet has any special needs all I ask is that you write a descriptive note stating what it is rather it’s medication or any different routines outside of normal or any special care that needs to be done

About: I have cared for pets all my life! From dogs and cats to guinea pigs, rats, and fish, I am comfortable in many different situations! I have cared for elderly dogs as well as kittens. I can administer medications and I have experience caring for kittens post fixing. I can handle many different temperments and can adjust my approach based off the fur babies personalities and needs. I am willing to work with you and my schedule is flexible! I am doing rover full time so I have a very flexible schedule for pet care. I have two cats at home so I will simply need to stop in to see them each day for meals and loving if booked for overnight stays. I am very consistent about meal times, snack times, potty breaks, and changing litter boxes (or other various cages/tanks). I am always mindful about how much time I am away from the pets, making sure my time is primarily spent with them (if overnight). I am athletic and happy to do extensive walking with dogs! I also make sure to follow pet parents' schedules and ask any questions as they come up. As a pet parent myself, I always want the fur babies to be comfortable and at ease with me as much as possible.

“Alex was wonderful — super easy to book, accommodating and provided adorable pictures. Beanie can be VERY particular about people and she LOVED Alex so highly recommend her! You can tell she’s great with pets! She treated my home with love and care as well. Will definitely be booking her again moving forward.”


“Haley was awesome! I have a reactive dog that doesn’t get along with strangers/ other animals so finding someone to care for him while I’m away isn’t easy. He’s also a tripod and has anxiety issues. Haley did so well with him and I felt very at ease while I was away. She sent great updates and left the house nice and clean for when I got back. Definitely will be using her again!”


“Verity was a great house/dog/catsitter. She was very communicative and reliable. The pets were very well tended to and she gave us peace of mind on our four day trip out of state. Thanks Verity!”


“Micah house sat for us for a weekend and took care of our rambunctious lab mix, elderly boxer, and loveable kitty. He did an awesome job, and truly cares about the puppers. We will for sure be reaching out to him again!”
