About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs in both my own home and clients’ homes for the past 5 years, and it’s something I truly enjoy. I love spending time with dogs, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I live an active lifestyle and enjoy walks, outdoor time, and keeping dogs engaged based on their individual needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and prioritize clear communication, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands. I look forward to caring for your dog like they’re part of the family! 5am beach walk Lunchtime walk 4pm walk I work 7-3:30 about a mile away from home M-F so I’m able to come home on lunch. My boyfriend works from home about 2-3 days per week. Spacious, clean, and pet-friendly apartment with plenty of room to relax and play. No crate needed, but if preferred I can accommodate. The goal is to make the fur babies feel as at home as possible.

“This was our first time using a pet sitter for our pup who is pretty spoiled and routine driven. Charlie seemed to do fine with all of Sage's needs. She updated us regularly with pics and little anecdotes. She left the house in great shape as well. Thanks Charlie for helping us out with Sage.”

“We were glad to have Jamie stay with us again, this time for a full week. She took care of our dogs and home while on vacation, even responding to a few off hour requests. Thanks again, we look forward to booking again soon.”

“Emily was an incredible sitter for our chiweenie, Max. He’s a very anxious dog and she was able to not only calm him but make him her bestie in five short days. We appreciated having her in our home: she is neat, punctual and took great care of our space. 10/10 would recommend!!!”

About: I've loved all animals ever since I was born! I've had all different species, shapes and sizes of animals ranging from fish, guinea pigs, bunnies, and of course my favorites; cats and dogs. Over the years, I have cared for my own animals as well as friends and family. I'm patient, caring, and dedicated to ensuring your pet receives the best care! I have a full time job but have availability during the week before 8 am and after 4pm for the summers and before 9am and after 6pm during the winter. Weekends are more flexible and I can dedicate more time to caring for your furry friend! My current living situation does not allow for pets, so I am available to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home and neighborhood!

“Jennifer was a wonderful dogsitter. She is polite and very responsive. You will not regret leaving your babies with her.”

About: I have always lived with dogs my whole life. I have my own dog and I have helped friends and family by looking after their furry friends. I work full time but I am home in Newport everyday by 4:00pm so I would be able by 4:30 to care for your dog! I am also available most weekends at any time. I have a friendly dog and a fenced in yard where they could play! My home is also very spacious and always been dog friendly.

“We had an unexpected medical emergency and Marina was extremely kind and flexible, keeping our dog until a friend could take her. She sent lots of cute pics, and my friend said Angel clearly liked Marina and was upset when she left. I highly recommend Marina.”

“Emily was amazing with Sunny! She stayed in our home for a week and took such great care of him. She kept in touch the whole time with updates, treated Sunny like her own, and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. She’s super friendly, and we came home to an absolutely spotless house. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely have Emily watch Sunny again!”

Samantha O.

“Maria was fantastic with my dogs! She kept me updated with pics on the dogs while I was gone. You can tell she cares a great deal about making sure they are happy and safe. Dogs were well loved and I was able to enjoy a wedding weekend without stressing. 10/10 would book again.”

Emily V.

“Charlotte is GREAT! She came over twice before her stay to meet the dogs and get a feel for how things would run during her stay. She made me feel so comfortable! She gave me updates throughout the week we were gone and sent some very cute photos! We came home to some very happy dogs. We are so thankful for our experience with Charlotte and have already booked her again! Thank you!!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have taken care of both for other people! My experience includes drop in visits, week long overnights, and walks! I currently work full time so I’m primarily offering evening services and weekend services. I am also open to early mornings if asked in advance! While in your home, I will maintain your pet’s typical routine while also keeping the household clean. I follow any instructions/guidelines that are provided and make sure to give extra attention to pets while their owners are away!

About: I'm a lifelong pet caregiver with over 10 years of daily, hands-on experience caring for dogs. From childhood, my home included dogs and cats. Caring for them has been part of my everyday life. Not just feeding and exercise, but understanding personalities, the importance of routines and individual needs. I'm the pet parent of 3 French Bulldogs whom I've raised from puppyhood. They are now 10 months, 10 years and my eldest just passed the 🌈 bridge. Raising them has given me extensive experience across all life stages. From energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring daily medications, extra patience and care. Because of this, I'm acutely aware of the unique needs and care of brachycephalic breeds, including breathing sensitivities, temperature regulation appropriate exercise levels and age-related health needs. I work from home, which allows me to provide constant supervision (if necessary), flexibility and plenty of attention throughout the day. I'm available for dog walking, drop in visits, day care, and boarding. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, medication schedules, and specific routines. My own dogs require precise care plans, so I fully understand how important it is that your pet's instructions are followed exactly. Keeping your pet’s routine as close to how it is when they’re home with you is a priority for me. Following familiar routines helps alleviate their stress, build trust and ease into comfort while they are in my care. My dogs are friendly and accustomed to being around other pets. All of my dogs are intact, so I ask that owner's disclose whether their dogs are intact or in heat prior to booking. This allows me to thoughtfully plan and recommend the most appropriate service - such as visits to your home instead of boarding in mine - so everyone remains safe, comfortable and stress free. Pets in my home are welcome on furniture and I aim to make them feel as at ease as possible during their stay. I use careful management and positive handling techniques to ensure harmony when pets share space. I'm always mindful of body language and prioritize their safety and comfort. When your pet is in my care, you can expect regular photo updates and communication from arrival to departure so you always feel informed and reassured. I take pride in being attentive, reliable and genuinely invested in your pet's well-being! I work from home full-time, so my schedule is very flexible. I can take 2-3 breaks during the work day to walk your pet if they are staying with me, or stop by your home for potty and walk breaks. If they are staying with me for day care or boarding, I can meet your pet where they are in terms of potty, walk, and play breaks, as well as forced nap times, if necessary. I have several ways to manage the space in my home between pets, to ensure everyone is safe, comfortable and happy. I have 3 crates, baby gates, several pet beds and endless toys. Our yard has a fenced in area to ensure safe potty breaks.

“Erika is incredible, kind and sweet. She took care of Astro like he was her own and gave us the reassurance he was good while we went out. We will be booking her again. Thank you!”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life and grew up caring for various breeds, which taught me how to read canine body language and understand different personalities. Beyond a lifetime of personal pet ownership, I also have professional experience working for a local small pet-care business. Through that role, I provided high-quality drop-in cat and dog sitting, daily dog walking, and overnight housesitting. Whether your pet needs a high-energy walk, structured routine maintenance during an overnight stay, or just some dedicated playtime and companionship, I am committed to keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable while you are away! As a university student studying psychology and kinesiology, my schedule requires a bit of balance, but it also gives me great flexibility! I am fully available for pet care from Friday to Monday. Because my evenings are adaptable, I am also available for late-night check-ins. I manage my time strictly, ensuring that your pet's feeding, walking, and medication schedules are always met precisely and with plenty of dedicated attention. Safety is my absolute highest priority when caring for your animals. Having grown up with various breeds and worked professionally in pet care, I have a strict rule of keeping all dogs securely leashed whenever they are outside or on walks. I am also fully experienced with crate training and can comfortably crate your dog if that is part of their normal routine. My academic background makes me highly observant of behavior, so you can trust that I will maintain a calm, structured, and completely secure environment for your pet.

“Jeassi was very friendly and took great care of my 2 dogs. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

About: I’m detail-oriented and observant—cats are subtle, and I notice the small things that matter. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, and I’ll flag anything unusual right away. Most importantly, I don’t force interaction. Whether your cat wants playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone reliable to keep their routine steady, I meet them where they are. I have full availability on weekends, which allows for extended visits, longer walks, playtime, and flexible scheduling. During the weekdays, I’m available in the mornings and evenings, making me a great fit for breakfast and dinner feedings, walks, medication schedules, and nighttime check-ins. Because I plan my day intentionally, I’m punctual, dependable, and able to stick closely to each pet’s normal routine—something that helps reduce stress, especially for cats, seniors, and pets who thrive on consistency. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, whether they’re in my home or in a client’s home. I focus on consistency, safety, and individualized attention so pets stay comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions exactly—feeding schedules, walks, litter or potty routines, medications, and any house rules. I keep the environment clean and calm, make sure pets get appropriate exercise or playtime, and monitor their behavior, appetite, and overall wellbeing. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pet is doing. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment with plenty of attention, structured play, and rest time. I introduce pets slowly if others are present, separate when needed, and adjust care based on age, energy level, and temperament. Across all services, I prioritize clear communication, attention to detail, and treating every pet as an individual—not a one-size-fits-all routine.

“Haley did an excellent job. We would definitely use her again.”
