“Robyn is fantastic! Great communicator, timely, attentive to details, responsible, but most importantly our sometimes shy pup Brix LOVES her and has clearly been happy and relaxed each time we come home. She a Dog Whisperer(!) Highly recommend!”

About: I currently work as a supervisor at a doggy daycare and have hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. I also have personal experience caring for special needs and mobility-impaired dogs, including medication administration and bladder expression. Animals are truly my passion, and I treat every pet like family. I work mornings and spend a lot of time caring for my own rescue babies, so I currently offer pet care visits between 3 PM–9 PM to ensure every animal gets my full attention and care. I know how important trust is when it comes to someone caring for your pets, because my own babies are my entire world too. I believe building a bond with each pet is just as important as meeting their physical needs, so I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pets with patience, attention, and kindness while keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.
“Adele was wonderful with our dogs during her visits. She consistently sent detailed updates and notes about each visit, which we really appreciated. We’d be happy to have her back anytime we need help.”

“Jamie was terrific for Drop-In visits for our golden retriever! Responsive, timely, reliable, great communicator and updates. Best part was how comfortable our pup was with her and happy she was when we got home. Clearly well cared for and loved while we were away. Highly Recommmend!”

About: Hello! My name is Alexyss, and I have never lived in a house without pets until college. I have genuinely missed the company of animals, and would love to spend my time with them. My family always had multiple dogs in the house, and I have helped birth and raise puppies and kittens more than once. I’m trying to primarily focus on dog walking, but am open to the occasional pet sitting. Because of my extensive experience, I’m pretty much the first person my friends and family call when they need someone to watch their furry family members. I can’t bring them to my house because I have an allergic roommate. All breeds and sizes are beautiful, and I’d love to meet your animals. Hope to hear from you! I have a regular 9-5 M-F job. So I am slightly limited during week days. However, I can still either stop by or stay at your home on those days. I am available on weekends. I also have half days on Friday (I get out at 12). I used to be a nanny, which is obviously different, but it means that I am very good at following the rules set by clients and catering to their needs.
About: I’ve had two amazing Labrador Retrievers and truly understand the bond between pets and their owners. I treat every dog in my care like part of the family and prioritize a safe, calm, and loving environment. 🐾 I specialize in weekend dog sitting, which allows me to focus on providing each dog with plenty of attention, structure, and care. I welcome multiple dogs from the same household and do not mix dogs from different families. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or relaxing at home, I’ll make sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I also provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in great hands. My work schedule is Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4 PM, so I’m primarily available to offer pet care over the weekends. I can provide evening and overnight care starting Friday evening through Sunday, ensuring your pets get all the attention, playtime, and love they deserve while you're away. I provide a safe, comfortable environment for pets in my apartment, where I have access to a fenced-in doggy play area. Additionally, my pet-friendly neighborhood and nearby park are perfect for daily walks and outdoor play. Whether your pet enjoys running around or relaxing, I make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and love while in my care.
About: I grew up with a Mom who loved animals and was surrounded by pets of all kinds. I have loved and cared for them and enjoyed their unique personalities. When pets are in my care they tend to settle quickly, feel safe, and stay happy while their parents are away. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and learning their personalities. And if your pet loves to snuggle, they’ll get plenty of affection with me! I want both your experience and theirs to be stress free and fun. You can rest easy knowing your pets will be well cared for, content, and loved by me while you’re gone. I’m available between 8:00 am and 8:00 pm and have a part-time schedule, which gives me the flexibility to fit around your pet’s routine and needs. I’m happy to help during the week as well as on weekends, so your pets can enjoy consistent, loving care even when your schedule changes. I care for pets right in the comfort of their own home, following your instructions and keeping their routine as consistent as possible. Services I offer include feeding and refreshing food and water, administering medications as instructed, playtime, enrichment, and companionship, walks and outdoor breaks (for dogs), litter box care for cats, tidying up after visits so your home is left just as I found it. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, calm, and well cared for and for you to return to a happy pet and a tidy home.
“Annika took great care of our little Noli cat while we were gone, and was clean and respectful of the house. We came home to a very happy kitty! I’d love to have her help us out again in the future.”

“Allison was very friendly and communication was great, making for a very seamless experience. We have 3 cats, one of which is diabetic and requires insulin injections. We were very comfortable with leaving our cats in Allison’s care and will definitely book again!”

“Samantha helped to drop visit our cats for a week. She was kind and easy to communicate, also was experienced for cat daily care. She even helped us to bring in the packages while we’re away. Appreciate her help and care!”

“This is my first time using Rover and we couldn’t have had a better experience than we had with Heather! My son loves getting the daily check in picture of our pug, Coco! Thanks again Heather & Rover!”

About: I have owned cats, dogs, reptiles, and small animals through the years. And have dog sat and walked dogs including small, medium, large, and giant breeds. I’m currently a full time student looking to make a little extra cash while doing something I love. I have availability after school on weekdays and anytime on weekends. I’m not currently offering care in my home due to the landlord however I don’t mind going to your home and following your routine in a place your fur baby is comfortable!

Emily is an absolute gem! She’s incredibly sweet, thoughtful, and genuinely loves the dogs she cares for. Our doggy was so happy and well cared for while we were away — and Emily kept us updated the entire time with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. She's reliable, responsive, and clearly goes above and beyond. We feel so lucky to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and dependable dog sitter. Thank you, Emily!
