About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats and other furry friends for about 15 years. Helping neighbors, friends and family feed, walk and play with their pets while they’re away. I get done work around 3pm and am available for evening walks. I’m also available for stay over visits if the pup can go from 8:30am-3pm between walks Monday-Friday. I have a lovely quiet neighborhood to leash walk, close to the beach and I have a super cuddly older dog to keep them company. In your home I’ll care for your pets based on your expectations.

About: I'm looking for dogs and cats to keep me company. I love to go for long walks and am used to having pets around me all the time. I travel frequently, so I am not a good fit for someone looking for consistent availability. I've spent the past few years pet sitting while traveling around North America and Europe. I've house sat in mansions with household staff as well as rustic off-grid homesteads. I've done well over 100 house sits, some of which were several months long. Before I became a pet sitter, I had my own cats, one of whom had diabetes. Before I bought my own home, I took care of my roommate's dogs. I grew up on a dahlia farm in Wall, NJ, where we had lots of dogs and cats over the years. In addition to Rover's background check, I've passed background checks to move to Portugal in 2022, become a Canadian citizen in 2022, work with vulnerable people in Canada in 2021, and move to Canada in 2015. I work remotely for a small nonprofit where I have a flexible schedule. This makes it easy for me to keep your pets on their usual routine. I'm a very tidy person. Over the years I've had all sorts of things come up while pet sitting, so I'm confident that I can manage whatever happens.

“We are so happy to come home to our cats that have been so well cared for, and to not worry about them while on vacation. Sarah does a great service and sends us lots of pictures!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the genuine love and care I have for both people and animals. I'm a 19 year old college student studying nursing because I’ve always had a deep passion for taking care of others and making a difference. I also work part-time as a waitress at a senior facility, which has taught me patience, empathy, and how important it is to be present and attentive skills I bring into pet care as well. In my free time, I’m either relaxing with a good movie or book, or I’m out walking at the beach or baking something fun. I truly love all animals and hope to one day give back and help improve their lives in a bigger way. For now, I’d be so happy just to care for yours like they were my own —spoiled, loved, and treated like the little baby they are! Pet care fits into my routine pretty naturally! Since I’m a part-time worker and a college student, my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m especially available Wednesday through Friday, and I can also do weekday visits or walks after 4 PM. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s home, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality so I can make them feel as relaxed and happy as possible. I always follow any instructions carefully, from feeding schedules and walk times to any special medications or habits they have. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space, keep things clean, and create a calm, familiar environment for their pet. I do my best to keep things consistent so your pet feels safe and secure while you're away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so I’m always open to updates, check-ins, and communication to give you peace of mind. I care for every pet like they’re my own — with patience, love, and lots of attention

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for cats and dogs. I have been around both my entire life, which has helped me become comfortable with different personalities, routines, and care needs. I understand that every pet is unique and deserves patience, attention, and reliable care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I am committed to providing attentive care, companionship, and plenty of affection while you’re away. I currently have full availability from Friday through Sunday, allowing me to dedicate quality time to your pets and ensure they receive the care and attention they deserve. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work Monday through Thursday as an Operations and Program Assistant, which allows me to dedicate my full attention to pet care on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays with open availability. I am also available for morning, evening, and overnight care depending on your pet's needs. Having grown up around cats, dogs, reptiles, and horses, caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care while keeping pets comfortable and maintaining their normal routines. When caring for pets, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and making them feel comfortable and safe. Having cared for my own three cats, I understand the importance of providing fresh food and water, a clean environment, playtime, and plenty of attention. In a client's home, I will follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, litter box or waste cleanup, and any special routines your pet is used to. I also enjoy spending quality time with pets through play, companionship, and enrichment activities to help them feel relaxed while their owners are away. My goal is to treat every pet with the same care, patience, and attention that I would give my own.

“Erin was super sweet and communicative! I’ve only used Rover once before but my previous sitter wasn’t available, so I always get a little nervous with someone new. But Erin was lovely, even though Stevie decided to be a little shy. Absolutely recommend and will use her services again.”

About: I became a cat lover later in life, taking in a stray after a snow storm on Christmas day. Prior to that I was a self-described dog person. Now, I love cats and dogs equally as they both have special traits. I've had two family dogs during my childhood, and two during adulthood. I've dog-sat for a friend's senior dog during their summer vacations, and I've cat-sat for my sister's family cat, feeding, administering insulin shots, and giving him a little love. I trained my parents' nervous rescue dog to walk on a leash (taking months of patience!). I would love to walk or sit your family pet while you're at work, away for the weekend, or on vacation. As a school teacher, my summer schedule is flexible. For the summer, I have a flexible schedule and I can accommodate various times. We can work out a schedule based on your pet's needs. I can care for your cat in your home or in my home (I have one friendly mature cat). I can walk your dog in your neighborhood, or dog sit in your home.
