2. Sherry B.

“We are so happy that we found Sherry to take care of our 3 dogs! She is polite and responsible and trustworthy. It meant a lot that she really took her time to make sure she knew our babies and their needs before staying with them. My dogs took to her very quickly upon meeting, which was great! We believe our babies were in the best of care! We will definitely continue to use her:)”

4. Rebecca F.

“Rebecca is absolutely amazing. This was the first time I left Woodie with a sitter besides my son. He was nervous at first, but she came over several times to make sure he was comfortable. She knew everything to do to make him comfortable. He did perfectly when we went out. I was not worried at all because I knew she had it handled. I of course will be using her anytime I want to go out.”

“Kelly was awesome!! She watched my two pups while I was away for a night and I would absolutely recommend her to others and will personally rebook in the future. We facetimed and met up ahead of time to make sure we were all a good fit, and she made me feel comfortable being with them at my place while I was away, with her knowledge experience and love of all dogs. She cared about their normal schedule, asked about any likes dislikes quirks or preferences. She gave updates and sent pics while she was with them, and they loved their time with her. Thank you so much Kelly!!!”

“Tasha was amazing! She was here always in time, she was super sweet with our new puppy, who accepted her immediately! She played with her, was attentive to her needs .

She has an relaxed attitude and the puppy feels this and is relaxed and calmed once Tasha leaves. I cannot thank her enough for all her help!! 😍😍”

About: Since childhood, dogs have been an integral part of my life, starting with two Pomeranians, followed by an energetic Shiba Inu named Akira, and a loving lab mix German Shepherd named Stella. Over the years, I've gained extensive experience caring for these pets—whether through cuddling, playing, feeding, walks, or adventures. I've also spent time teaching them tricks and handling their grooming needs. Earlier this year, I began offering overnight and day sitting services, along with walks, for friends on Rover, and later extended my services to family and other referrals. I focus on building strong bonds and trust with the animals I care for, tailoring our time together to ensure it's both enjoyable and enriching. I've worked with dogs ranging from 4-month-old puppies to older dogs aged 13-14, and have experience with both a kitten and an adult cat. My approach is patient, compassionate, and dedicated to meeting the unique needs of every animal I care for. I'm a makeup artist who works both on location and from home. With a flexible schedule, I currently have plenty of free time to spend with your dog! **Dog Walking**: I tailor each walk to the dog’s individual energy level, adjusting the pace and distance to ensure they get the right amount of exercise. I also provide opportunities for exploration while keeping safety in mind, and I’m attentive to any health considerations or special preferences they may have. **Overnight Sitting**: When staying in a client’s home, I prioritize the pet’s comfort and security by sticking to their regular routine as much as possible. This includes consistent feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and providing companionship to ease any anxiety, particularly during the night. In everything I do, my primary goal is to build trust with each pet, providing them with a safe, loving environment where they feel cared for and valued—whether I’m working in my own home or in a client’s.


15. Makenzie S.
“I am writing on behalf of Makenzie, my neighbor and current dog sitter. I cannot speak highly enough about her as a person and animal care giver. I have known her since she was about 6 years old and have witnessed her steadfast love and devotion for animals. Her family have always been pet owners, including both dogs and cats. She has been a great support to me and my Mastiffs throughout the years. I used to have 2 Mastiffs she would help me with, and currently have my Mr. Henry, a 140lb Cane Corso she takes care of 5x week who loves her to death! This includes walking him, feeding him, and spending time with him to keep him company during my work day. She has known first hand what it takes to care for animals as a child and her love and sensitivity she has for them has only grown stronger. I put 100% faith and trust in her to care for my current dog and any I have in the future. She is been nothing short of attentive, patient, and compassionate with my dog and her own pets. I would recommend her without hesitation to care for your animal and give him/her the love and care you would give them yourself.”


16. Margaret R.

“Margaret was amazing taking care of my old and high maintenance dog. She was very easy to get into contact with and kept me very well updated while I was away. Definitely would book again!”


17. Adam J.
“Adam did great house sitting for me and hanging out with Sammy while I was away. Sammy seemed to be happy I was home, but not stressed out which is always the goal with getting a sitter :) Adam even pulled a couple packages in the house for me that were delivered while I was away. If I need another sitter, I will definitely reach out to Adam!”


18. Jennie P.


“Jennie was so incredible with Cash! She stayed with him at my apartment for an entire week and I returned with my home just as clean as I found it. She went above and beyond by taking Cash on walks and adventures while I was away, and kept me updated throughout the entire time! I would absolutely work with her again and am so thankful for the care she provided my pup!”


19. Rebecca B.

“Rebecca did a great job housesitting my furball while I was away on vacation. She was also a very clean house guest and hardly left a trace of her stay. I would recommend!”


20. Anna S.
“Anyone who knows me knows that I take my Lab Betty with me everywhere. However, work often brings me to far away places Ms. Betty cannot go. For the last 6 years Anya is who I call and trust the most. She typically comes to my home ( I have a cat named Rita Mae and 14 city Chix hens. Anya has been a wonderful and caring to all of my animals. She’s my go to whenever I need support for my animals. I appreciate her flexibility and her attention to me wanting all the details of her time spent. If you’re smart you’ll choose her. We’re so happy we have her in our world.”
