About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I’m a pet owner myself. I’m very patient, attentive, and truly enthusiastic about animals. I’ve cared for puppies as well as senior dogs, and I understand that each pet has unique needs and routines. I’m also knowledgeable about basic training and enjoy helping pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home with a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day, including regular potty breaks, playtime, and multiple walks. I also have a fenced yard and a safe environment where dogs can relax and get fresh air. I love having pets as part of my day and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy. My home provides a safe, welcoming environment for pets. I have a large fenced yard and plenty of indoor space for your pet to relax and play comfortably. If needed, I can also set up a crate based on your request and your pet’s routine. We also have nearby walkways and parks, making it easy to enjoy regular outdoor walks and fresh air.

“Harsh was amazing. I had a lot going on at my parents’ house and needed someone last minute. He showed up within 20 minutes of my request without hesitation. He was respectful, polite, and treated my cats like they were his own. I only had to explain things once and he understood everything right away. He made a stressful situation so much easier for me. I’ve already booked him again for a future date and would absolutely recommend him. Your pets will be in safe hands with Harsh.”

About: Hi, I’m Christine! For the past 15 years, I’ve cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to wise senior dogs and even a few feisty cats. I now have my own furry companion, a playful weenie dog, and know firsthand how much our pets mean to us. I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and personalized care, whether it’s house sitting, drop-in visits, walks, or even bathing and grooming. As an active person, I’m more than happy to keep up with high-energy dogs or take a slower, more careful approach for pets that need a little extra patience. Unfortunately, Rover does not allow sitters to mark specific times as unavailable; only full days are available. My schedule is relatively flexible, though I am currently studying to take my board exams, so please reach out with a request, and depending on my study/work schedule, I would be more than happy to accommodate you! While my yard isn’t pet-friendly yet, I’m happy to provide care in the comfort of your pet’s own home, following your guidelines to maintain their routine and comfort. I understand that no one knows your pet better than you, so I’m here to support both you and your furry family member as best as I can!

“Mersades did a great job looking after our cat, Clementine. Clementine looked very happy in the photos Mersades sent and we could tell she had lots of good playtime. We came home to a healthy cat. I would trust my cat to be taken care of by her again in the future.”

“We are so grateful to Jasmin for watching our cat, Riley, while we were traveling. She took great care of her which let us enjoy our trip without worrying. She even went the extra step of washing Riley’s dishes after her meals. Thank you so much, Jasmin! We would definitely book with you again. ☺️”

About: I’ve had cats since childhood and currently have a cat of my own, so I understand how important patience, attention, and care are for pets.

I’m responsible, gentle, and truly love animals, and I always try to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already care for my own cat every day.

“Rebecca was so good with our cat Kyle! We went on a long weekend vacation and she came by daily to check on him. She updated us with plenty of photos. I could tell Kyle was really happy with her visits when we came back home. I'd schedule her again in a blink of an eye.”

“Fijian was everything I could hope for in a cat sitter and MORE! She took excellent care of my babies and sent extremely detailed updates after every visit. She is an adept caretaker and I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in her very capable hands. I’ve already booked her for another weekend!”

About: I’ve been around dogs all of my life and have owned dogs since the age of 4. I’ve recently been involved with several kennel clubs. I show my dogs within these clubs at shows (including the Westminster dog show) which has provided me with experience and knowledge of many dogs. I have experience with many breeds of dogs from small to large. I’ve groomed, trained, managed, walked and cared for many dogs.i also have boarding/daycare experience as I have worked at Morris Animal in for many years. My summer schedule is very relaxed and allows me to have a lenient schedule. Due to this, I would be available to work weekdays between 8am to 3pm and even some weekends I’d care for my clients pets the same way I’d care for my own, with love and respect. All animals would be supervised and well taken care of (depending on their needs). My 6 dogs are spoiled rotten I must admit. They get minimum 3 walks a day, they eat twice a day, get enrichment puzzles/toys 2 times a week minimum, get plenty of treats, play time, rub downs, zoomie breaks and training time.

About: I’ve loved animals ever since I can remember. From hamsters, dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, geckos, etc. I have had them all! I am always a reliable source for pet care when friends and neighbors are away. I currently work weekends and am attending school in the evenings a few days a week- so I have all day to play and care for your fur babies! I have a fenced in yard and two cats who are accepting of other animals. I can crate or provide a comfy space for your pets so they feel pampered and safe!

About: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate social work student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until August. I can make myself available as needed. My own pets are given daily care. I own several disabled animals who require special care in order to get around and eat on their own. I currently have two budgies in a large cage l and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away when your pets are being boarded. In your home, I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet — but I do reserve the right to cuddle your pet a little more!

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I enjoy building trust with animals and making sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I’m calm, responsible, and dedicated to creating a safe and loving environment. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care each day. I’m able to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, and companionship while keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routine. Trust and communication are very important to me when caring for pets. I provide regular updates, photos, and consistent care so owners feel comfortable while away. I always respect a pet’s routine and ensure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision.

About: Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve always had an animal around the house. Whether it was my parents cats, my family dogs, or my grandparents fosters, there has always been an animal in my household! I love entertaining them and playing with them, and I do my best to make sure they feel loved and safe in their spaces! I am a college student who works as a substitute teacher, so weekends are the main time I can provide your pet with the best service possible! But, if you communicate ahead of time and are nearby, I’m sure we can figure out a time for me to drop in, or the chance of me staying overnight to care for your pet! When coming into your home, I want to make sure that I am the best guest possible. Not only do I want your pet to be comfortable with me in their space, but I want you to feel comfortable with me caring for them. Give me the ground rules, the entire run down, and I will put my best foot forward to show you I’m somebody you can trust.

“Excellent dog sitter I feel completely confident with Rachel as Norman's sitter/walker, she is responsive and reliable. Five starts!”
