About: I have owned dogs since a young age. I currently have two pups, one large and one small. I am very familiar with the specific care that dogs require and am willing to go above and beyond to make you pup happy. My husband and I currently work from home full time. This gives me the opportunity to give your dog plenty of attention and care. I can assure you they will be treated like I treat my own I have a fenced yard, for frequent potty breaks. I also have two friendly dogs that love to play and keep good company for your fur baby.
“Kelly was great! She was super accommodating as we requested our booking last minute and also communicative. Axe was happy when we got back home. I would definitely recommend her services.”
“Stevie took great care of our two cats while we were away! She was super nice, responsive, and communicative. We would definitely reach out to her again for future cat-sitting!”
“Jessie was a great sitter for my 2 cats! Like many can relate- my pets are my babies and I truly appreciated the time beforehand to do a meet and greet as well as all the photos I got while out of town. Communication was excellent, would highly recommend!”
About: I started as the neighborhood dog walker when I was 13 and since then have taken care of my family and friends dogs from small Shih Tzus to large Goldens. I am currently working full time locally. My work schedule is Monday to Friday from 7:30-4:30 but I am available for early morning, afternoon or weekend walks. When watching your pet in your home or just taking them for a walk, I will always respect you and your dogs needs and boundaries and take care of them as if they’re my own!
“So happy I was able to book with Polina somewhat last minute before Thanksgiving. She was on time, gave me updates with pictures, and most importantly took great care of my elderly cat while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
About: I've grown up with pets my entire life. I've cat-sat and dog-walked for friends and family. I love caring for animals and this is a great substitution for right now while I can't have my own dog. I’m very active and I enjoy being outside so walking a dog combines two things that I love: dogs and exercise! At the end of the workday I don’t always want to do a full workout but having a pet to care for is a great excuse. I will follow the owners' guidelines. I've cared for older dogs and I understand how important their schedule is. If I have questions I will not hesitate to reach out rather than assume.
About: Ive been a dog owner my whole life (currently dog-less!) and would love to walk and play with your pup to get my fix! I plan on getting a did soon but until then..I can take care of yours! I work full-time but have a schedule that would allow me to help out on certain days and times. Wednesdays and Saturdays off. I can help before and after work also. I have a fenced yard and live near Eastons Pond, a great walking spot for dogs. My house is clean and cozy, perfect for a small dog to do a sleepover.
“Alex was fantastic, taking such good care of our cat while we were away! We received regular updates and pictures and everything went absolutely seamlessly; we couldn't be happier!”
“My kitty was quite elderly, with some special needs. So when I had a last-minute need for a drop-in visit, I wanted to be extra sure to find someone very reliable, willing to do meds, and very gentle with the kitty. Emily is all that, and more! I would happily call on her again.”
About: I've lived with and owned cats and dogs since I can remember. The last couple years are my first time not owning a pet since losing my 14 year-old Dachshund in 2022. I'm looking to establish and grow local connections and I look forward to the fulfillment I will receive from spending time with, playing with and caring for others' pets! I've taken care of cats, dogs, rodents, and bearded dragons for many years. I'm the go-to person for my friends and family to contact for assistance with grooming, overnight stays, and support or advice when health issues arise or behaviors change. I learned it all by experience and my mom who was a veterinary technician for Dr. Cates and later worked at the Potter League. I currently work full-time in a remote hybrid position. I'm home in Middletown three days out of the five day work week and I'm available weekends. I take pride in the fact my friend's family loves that I leave their home looking like I was never there. I believe in upholding the pets typical schedule regarding walks, going out, play, feedings and medicine if needed.
About: I am a young, active professional working from home. I would love to bring my space and passion for exercise to your dogs. In between walks, my home will welcome any size pet with a large porch and open living area. Depending on your dog's eating habits, a typical day would wake up to breakfast, go for a nice walk to the backyard and/ or nearby park, be home for either play time or porch time, a midday walk is a must, and dinner too. A total of 4 walks, including before bed, are likely from my experience. On weekends I like to adventure to a nearby hike. Please let me know if your dog is car friendly! I welcome any special requests that you may have.
“Grace is awesome! Absolutely reliable, professional, and great communication the whole time. She helped us out on multiple occasions, including a few last minute events. So grateful we had her to help us.”
“Victoria is an incredible pet sitter!! She watched my cat Glinda while I was away and immediately put me at ease with how thoughtful and communicative she was. I can tell she really cares about the pet she is sitting for and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy. I would highly recommend and will certainly be hiring Victoria again.”

Erin was great! Seemed to make fast friends with my (somewhat choosey) cat friend and hung around to keep her company beyond brass tacks on visits. Rover doesn't make it easy to filter for folks with experience with injectable meds or diabetes -- We really hit the jackpot!
Margaret was wonderful to work with. Our cat has become quite shy in his old age, but Margaret took the time to find his hiding places and give him pets each day. She also kept us updated with photos and fun stories which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We are so appreciative and would absolutely recommend her!
