“Boryana took amazing care of our senior pitbull, Brady. She was very patient with his quirks and eccentricities (e.g. he has acquired a habit of lying down for rests mid-walk). He often seems a little out of sorts after we come back from a long trip, but this time he was very relaxed and happy. Communication was top notch and our house was left in perfect condition. We can't recommend Boryana highly enough, and hope she'll be available to take care of Brady again in the future!”


“Alexis did a great job sitting for Pearl. She came to meet her and get oriented to the house ahead of time. She confirmed the booking quickly and followed up with a message the day before the job. Alexis took good care of our cat and kept us updated with texts and photos. She followed all instructions and left the house clean. I recommend hiring her!”


“Laura was wonderful! She's extremely experienced, capable, competent, and knowledgable. My little guy (Julius, a cat) usually has bad separation anxiety, but he did wonderfully with Laura when she stayed in my apartment with him for two weeks. I highly recommend Laura as a sitter for any animal!”


“Kim is an amazing pet sitter! I will be sure to be rebooking her when we are out it town next! My wife and I are fellow Rover sitters and can say that Kim truly went above and beyond during her stay. Our Lab even had a last minute injury and Kim took extra care to look after her! We came back to a super clean apartment and she even left us a detailed summery of the stay!”


About: I have been dog sitting in different capacities since I was in high school. I started off dog sitting for family and neighbors and now have a base of returning clients, one of which has show dogs. I have even been hired by the IWCA (Irish Wolfhound Club of America) to watch puppies and walk dogs at an international show. I have a base knowledge for training basic skills such as sit, down, stay, come and so on. I also have some experience working with reactive dogs and will work at their pace. Bottom line, I will love your fur babies like they're my fur babies! I work full time, but I am usually home by 4 pm so evenings and weekends are when I am most available. I can be flexible though! My calendar is currently open through 2025. If you want to book in advance for 2026, please message me and I will let you know if I can accommodate your dates! In my home, it's the dogs house and I just live there lol! I understand that how I train my dogs and the rules in my house don't work for everyone. When I am sitting for you, I will follow your rules and guidance for how you want your home run. My number one concern is safety followed closely by respect. Additionally, if you're a new dog owner looking for some guidance I am more than happy to help out where I can!

“Jessica takes amazing care of our Shiba Inu! Our pup is usually very shy and takes a long time to warm up to new people, but she connected with Jessica right away. We’re so grateful to have found someone our dog trusts and loves!”


“Vee was very attentive to our cat, Chaos. She took the time to come meet us before her stay, and she followed all of our instructions to the letter, especially for his medication. She kept us updated with information and pictures, and clearly enjoyed taking care of Chaos. We hope to have Vee cat sit for us again!”


About: I’ve only ever known a household with pets! From cats and dogs, to hamsters and lizards. I truly love animals and have easily cared for family and friend’s beloved pets. Feedings, potty breaks, litter or crate cleans, I can do it all! I am currently a part time, online college student. So I can easily work pet care into my schedule with appropriate time given to prepare. In your home, I can always ensure that your pet’s environment is well kept and clean, including crates, food bowls, or litter boxes/outdoor spaces. I am able to brush your pet regularly and ensure their routine is kept for them.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for the past couple years. I have taken care of both family and friends dogs as well as neighbors from word of mouth. I am currently working remotely part time from home so I am generally pretty free to dog sit or pop in to feed any pets during the day. I can't take care of any pets in my home, but can go to your home and either dog sit from there or walk your dog.


About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and connection I have with animals. I’ve cared for many of my friends’ pets over the years—dogs and cats, and I naturally bond with them. They tend to feel calm and happy around me. I have experience with both playful puppies and sweet senior pets, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained. Whether it’s long walks, gentle care, or lots of cuddles, I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs. et care fits into my routine naturally—it’s something I truly enjoy! Even though I work full-time, I have a hybrid schedule and work from home three days a week, which gives me the flexibility to care for pets with lots of attention and love. I’m also off on weekends and finish work early on Fridays, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, playtime, and cuddles. Taking care of animals truly brings me joy—it’s one of the highlights of my week! I treat every pet like part of the family when caring for them in their own home. I make sure their environment stays calm, safe, and comfortable, following all instructions from the pet parents carefully—feeding schedules, favorite toys, and any special needs. I’m respectful of the home, keep everything tidy, and prioritize the pet’s comfort and security. I also provide regular updates to build trust and keep owners at ease while they’re away.

Megan M.
“Megan has been pet sitting us for over 7 years now and I've never met a more passionate, dedicated and conscientious young woman, especially when it comes to dogs. She loves them, and they absolutely adore her! I really think that our lab, who is normally glued to my husband's side, could care less about him once Megan shows up. I'm the dog mom you hear about. I never wanted kids, only dogs. They are my love and my life. So, I guess the best compliment I could give would be to tell you that my husband and I went on two different two-week vacations, and although I can't say I didn't think about my dogs during that time, I never once worried, knowing that Megan was with them and watching over them. More so than the destination or the things we did, Megan made that vacation as wonderful as it was because I knew I didn't have to worry about how things were at home.”

Carolina W.
“I have been honored to know Carrie for almost 15 years. Through thick and thin, Carrie has been dedicated, earnest, and incredibly kind to all she meets. She is one of the most responsible people I know and is someone you can undeniably count on. She is honest, organized, and respectful. When my family goes away for a holiday, she always shows up to ensure my pets are safe and cared for, no matter how difficult they can be at times. Even when my 12-year-old 100lb pup is grumpy!! Carrie is attentive and will follow instructions to a T. She will also always be sure to check in and make sure she's doing things correctly. I have no doubt that any furry loved one will be in the best care and company with Carrie with them!”
