“We were so pleased with the care our rather old, rather shy cat received from Crispin. And, to my amazement-the kitty area was as clean as I left it. Crispin, both kitty and I thank you!”

About: I bring a mix of patience, playfulness, and big pet-loving energy. Whether we’re running around, snuggling, or exploring, your pet always gets attention that feels personal, fun, and full of care. Pet care fits naturally into my Wednesday-Sunday schedule. I plan my days around walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins, making sure every pet gets unrushed, focused attention and fun I respect your home and your pet’s routine-clean bowls, secure doors, mindful of boundaries, and lots of attention. I treat your space and your pet with real care.

“Celia is our go-to for Tupper, she’s very reliable and prompt!”

About: I’ve taken care of plenty of dogs for my family, friends, and neighbors. I have a lot of knowledge about their needs and wants, and a lot of love for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have both the motivation and the skills necessary to take care of yours. I’m currently working part-time for 15 hours a week, so I have a lot of free time. While my schedule doesn’t fit exactly into Rover’s pre-set schedule options, I’m sure we can find something that works for us both. While I don’t currently have the space to host dogs at my apartment, I’m completely willing and able to stay at your place overnight. I’m already a very active person, so I’m sure I can fulfill your dog’s exercise needs.

“Cheryl was fantastic with my finicky cat; she looks like she didn't even miss me for the week I was gone! Would trust her with any four-legged friend.”

About: My first friend and best friend was a sweet as pie cockapoo named Pinky. I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and currently share my life with a beautiful, sweet, and athletic pitbull mix named Jackie. Jackie loves to make new friends and since I have a fenced in yard my home is perfect for playdates! Hoping to meet and care for some great animals here. I work from home full time. I run my own business and have a flexible schedule. I’m very active and spend a lot of time at the beach. I have a fenced in private yard with lots of space for doggies to play. I live in an upstairs unit of a duplex and my downstairs neighbors have a small pug.

“Jessica did a great job taking care of Buxton while I was gone for a few days. She understood the different needs that he had and was flexible with her schedule when we needed to adjust. She did a great job of sending pictures and updates on each visit. I recommend her highly.”

About: Ever since I was little i’ve always had family pets and constant foster puppies. From this experience i’ve learned plenty on how to approach an animal in a safe loving open way, and even as far as bottle feeding , correct diet, a little bit of simple training, and walking experience. I can guarantee you your animals are safe in my care, if not over-loved. I work a part time job at petco on weekends and weekdays. I occasionally volunteer with pets on weekends depending on my open availability. I also am a college student and have classes only in the mornings Tues-Thursday, only ever as long as 4 hours total. Other than class and work I am open and flexible to you and your schedule/convenience. Growing up with cats and dogs really opened me up and got me very comfortable with all and every animals. I’ve learned very important aspects as when and what an animal needs and why. I am here to follow your instructions and any specific details in terms of care you may need/request and have no problem conforming to whatever task may be asked of me. I can assure you I am more than capable of any animal big, small, energetic, played-back, or even sometimes mischievous. I personally like to think it’s easier for me to connect with animals then it may be with humans, which can guarantee you I am here for none other than the safety and care of your pet(s).

About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life. I’m happy to help meet your dogs needs, whether it’s a walk, a visit, or a longer stay. I have taken care of medically complex and senior dogs for many years as well. I’d love to help care for your animal as if it is my own. I currently work at a school so I’m available before 8am and after 3pm most weekdays. I’m usually not available outside those hours for any drop ins needed. I am a well organized and caring caretaker. I treat the animals in my care with love and respect, making sure to meet the individual needs of your pet. I’m always respectful and caring when in other people’s homes.

“Grace was a great help during our vacation! She made drop-in visits to feed our timid/shy kitty Lucy and provided timely and comforting updates each day including photos. We would recommend Grace as a sitter to anyone!”

“Kathleen was super easy to communicate with and responsive. She jumped in to help us on very short notice when other cat care plans fell through. We felt comfortable knowing she had everything taken care of, and her daily check-ins were welcome reassurance that all was well while we were away.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life! I’ve had three dogs (german shepherd, pitbull, lab) and three cats. I have experience with very high energy, fun, loving dogs and it’s never to much.😉 Being around these animals for so long, I’ve gotten experience accommodating diet needs, medicinal needs, even surgery recovery. Any animal you can think of I’ve probably taken care of! I love my babies with everything in me and I’ll love yours just as much! I can wait to meet you and them! I’m available every day of the week! I can accommodate early mornings, late nights, whatever you need! I primarily work my current job in early afternoons but even that is open at times. I am always attentive and alert when taking care of another’s pet. Being that my dogs have gone through multiple surgeries I’ve learned to observe mannerisms to help and accommodate pets as best I can!

About: I have always been interested in animals and have had some type of experience with every animal. I got two cats when I was 12 years old, and last year I got a dog of my own. Her name is Sola, and I have trained her myself to reduce some of her reactivity so she lives a happy life now. Recently I have gotten a 6 month old puppy, and have been trying to house train him. I have a deep love for animals, and I wish I could adopt every dog and cat in need, but hopefully pet sitting your animals will help me fill that wish! I work towards the middle of the day, so I am available in the mornings and afternoon! I have two weekdays off, so I am available midday then as well. I provide care that focuses on building comfort, trust, and consistency for each pet. Whether I’m in my home or the client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routines and let them set the pace for our relationship. I take time to earn their trust so they always feel safe and respected. My goal is to create an environment where pets can relax, be themselves, and know that their needs and boundaries will always come first.

“Lea was very attentive and sweet with Jasper. She sent updates for every visit and very cute photos of our cat, Jasper. She played with him and it seems like they got along famously!”
