Jennifer is amazing! She recently watched my 11-month-old puppy, Charlie. It was my first time leaving him with a sitter since I adopted him, so naturally I was a little nervous. From the moment I met Jennifer, I could tell right away that Charlie would be in great hands. She treated Charlie as if he were her own dog, with lots of love and attention. She shared adorable photos after every visit and updates that made me chuckle. It was really nice knowing that not only was Charlie being taken care of, he was also being loved while I was away. When I got home from my trip he was happy as a clam!

About: I’ve been taking care of and handling a variety of dog breeds since I was little. I’m actively working at a grooming salon, giving me reoccurring, daily, hands-on experience with a mixture of different breeds and sized dogs. I grew up with three dogs, and throughout the years I’ve done pet-sitting for numerous different sized dogs. I’m an active volunteer for an animal shelter, and have been with them for around 8 years. I have first aid/CPR certification for both cats and dogs! I’m currently working part-time, which leaves me available past 2pm every weekday for any pet services you may need! Weekend availability varies depending on the dates. I’ve been handling dogs and cats for many years. I am also First Aid/CPR certified for dogs and cats by Red Cross. Your fur babies safety is my top priority. I’m flexible with accommodating to any special requirements some pets may have in order to give them the best and safest experience possible.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s grown up with three or more pups at a time, so caring for multiple dogs—whether playful, shy, energetic, or timid—is something I thoroughly enjoy. I have experience with dogs of all ages and special needs, including senior, blind, deaf, and diabetic dogs. I’m comfortable feeding, bathing, walking, and providing each dog with the individual love, patience, and attention they deserve. Since I work part-time, I have plenty of time to hang out with pets during the day and throughout the week. I’m happy to walk dogs, feed and snuggle cats, and care for other pets however they need. I make sure every pet gets the attention and love they deserve, and I’m flexible about fitting their care around your schedule. I have a fenced-in yard where pets can safely play and explore, plus a quiet, walkable neighborhood perfect for walks. At home, I have three friendly dogs who visit occasionally, and two guinea pigs I care for daily, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety and comfort to make sure every pet feels secure and happy.

We never left the cats before and were worried. All our concerns went away during the meet & greet - even our shyest liked Melanie. The pics she sent showed the cats playing and content. When we got home they weren’t all clingy & needy. We would definitely hire her again

About: Hi! I’m Caitie, and I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new—so I focus on being reliable, communicative, and consistent above everything else. I have a structured, detail-oriented personality (my full-time role is in operations/training), so I naturally follow routines, instructions, and care plans exactly as requested. Whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, or just keeping things consistent for your pet, I’ve got it covered. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different temperaments, including shy or high-energy pets. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you never feel out of the loop. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting. I’m based locally and can accommodate short notice when needed. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe, and you feel completely at ease. I work a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time and attention to dedicate to your pet. I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays after 2pm, and I can often accommodate mid-day check-ins or walks depending on location. I’m reliable, responsive, and make pet care a priority in my routine—not something I squeeze in last minute. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first with me. I have a secure, pet-friendly environment and take time to understand each dog’s personality, routines, and boundaries. I’m attentive to behavior, keep a close eye during interactions, and can crate if needed based on your preference. I follow instructions closely and keep you updated so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: Hi! I’ve been a proud cat parent for over 5 years and have also cared for my roommate’s energetic dog—so I understand the different needs and personalities pets can have. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I’m here to keep them happy and safe while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule, so I can easily adjust to your pet’s needs—whether it’s daytime visits, evening walks, or overnight stays including weekdays, weekends, and some holidays I follow the owner's instructions closely to keep things familiar and stress-free for the pet. I keep up with feeding schedules, walks, litter box or potty breaks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also make sure to leave the home just as I found it—clean and tidy.

About: I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience in the pet care field, with a background that goes far beyond basic sitting or walking. I am licensed, insured, bonded, and background checked, and I also own and operate my own professional pet care business, which means I approach every booking with a high level of responsibility, professionalism, and accountability. My experience includes working in animal rescue and volunteering, where I cared for animals of all species, temperaments, and medical needs. I have extensive experience with puppies, senior pets, and special-needs animals, including those requiring medications, mobility support, or extra patience and structure. Through this work, I’ve developed a strong ability to read the body language and communication cues of different species, allowing me to understand when a pet is comfortable, stressed, anxious, or unwell. I pay close attention to subtle changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and routine, which helps me recognize early signs of illness or behavioral changes and communicate concerns clearly and promptly with pet parents. My background in rescue and professional pet care has taught me the importance of calm, consistent care , especially for pets who may not thrive in boarding environments. I am confident working with pets who need extra reassurance, individualized routines, or specialized care, and I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable and secure in their own home. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care that allows pets to feel safe and understood while giving their owners complete peace of mind. Pet care is not something I fit around another job. It is my full time profession, and I have intentionally built my daily schedule around providing reliable, attentive care for my clients and their pets. Because this is my business, I am able to plan my days with flexibility and prioritize consistency, routine, and comfort for the animals in my care. I am deeply passionate about both my work and the peace of mind it provides to pet owners. Caring for other people’s pets is something I take seriously, and I treat every visit with the same level of attention and responsibility I would expect for my own animals. With advance notice, I am available 24 seven for scheduled care, including overnights, drop ins, and extended visits. I also offer emergency visits for established clients when unexpected situations arise, subject to availability. This added flexibility allows my clients to feel supported, even when plans change. My goal is to be a dependable, long term care provider that pet owners can trust to be there when they need it most. When caring for pets in their own homes, I treat each space with the same respect and responsibility I would expect from someone caring for my own. I understand that inviting a pet sitter into your home requires a high level of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I am licensed, insured, bonded, and background checked, and I also come with letters of reference that speak to my professionalism, reliability, and integrity. I am mindful of home security, privacy, and routines, and I follow all client instructions carefully. This includes locking up properly, respecting personal spaces, and maintaining a clean and orderly environment during every visit. My focus is always on keeping pets comfortable and stress free in familiar surroundings while ensuring their home remains safe and well cared for. Whether I am providing drop in visits or overnight care, I aim to create a calm, dependable presence that both pets and owners can feel confident about. My goal is to provide in home pet care that is not only attentive and compassionate for your pets, but also respectful, trustworthy, and professional within your home.

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, and parakeets, and my mom bred and showed dogs, so I learned early how important patience, consistency, and attentive care are for every pet’s personality and needs. As an adult, I’ve primarily cared for cats and currently have a diabetic cat of my own. I’m very experienced with glucose testing and monitoring, administering insulin injections, recognizing and managing hypoglycemic events, and giving calm, compassionate care to pets with medical needs. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets because I’m dependable, observant, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m recently retired, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive pet care. While I do travel occasionally, my trips are planned well in advance and I keep my calendar updated. I’m available for drop-in visits and house sitting, and I enjoy helping pets stay comfortable in their normal routine and environment while their owners are away. I only provide care in the client’s home because I believe many pets feel safest and least stressed in familiar surroundings. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, and comfort needs so I can provide calm, reliable care while you’re away. I’m especially experienced with cats and pets requiring medical attention, including diabetic care, glucose monitoring, insulin injections, and recognizing signs of hypoglycemia. I treat every home respectfully and communicate regularly with updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: Although I am just starting out on this "Rover" journey, I have over 48 years of experience with dogs and cats. I got my first cat at twelve and my first dog at fifteen years old. As an adult, I have had five dogs and three cats over the years. We lost our last lab, Summer, in July of 2024 but then adopted a black lab mix from House of Hope Animal Rescue. Arby just turned one and brings me much joy! I love dogs, big and small, but all of my dogs were large - between 65 and 100 pounds. My last dog, Summer, had major anxiety and was very difficult at times. However, with routine, discipline and lots of love, she ended up being the dog I miss the most. If you give me a chance to walk your dog or provide drop-in care, you won't regret it! I will make sure they get plenty of exercise and are happy and tired when I leave! I am retired but want to do something to stay busy and active. Walking dogs and/or drop-in care will allow me to have a flexible schedule and the opportunity to be outside doing what I love - hanging out with dogs! My preference is Monday through Friday, but depending on the day/time, weekends are a possibility. I accept same-day scheduling if I have availability. When taking care of your dog I will follow whatever rules you have for keeping your dog safe and happy. If you don't have a fenced in yard, I always put dogs on a leash before exiting their home. Safety is my number one priority. Once leashed up, we will head out for our walk. If you have a fenced-in-yard and prefer me to just play with your dog in the yard, that is no problem! I am great at fetch, keep away, etc. with dogs. Again, the most important thing is safety, and for you to communicate with me your expectations regarding your dog.

About: I grew up around animals and have been responsible for caring for both dogs and cats since I was around ten years old. I have dog sat with overnight stays and dog walked for many friends and family members. I also have experience with cat sitting and cat check-ins as well. I have owned animals, both dogs and cats, well into their senior years and understand the differences in care older animals can require. I have had to raise a kitten from two weeks and am familiar with bottle feeding and round the clock care. I absolutely love to walk so I greatly enjoy getting my steps in with a doggie friend. In general, I just love being around animals and would love to help take care of your pet! I'm currently working freelance so my schedule is quite flexible to fit in pet care! Since I have flexible work I am available during traditional work hours for those who need help during that time. I can also make evening and weekends work as well. On walks, I am very alert and watchful of the animal and always make sure they are safe and secure. I keep a watchful on other dogs on walks to ensure safety as well. When doing house visits, I always ensure the animal has everything it needs and gets lots of love and attention. If I am staying in a client's home, I follow all house rules and keep things tidy. When boarding dogs, I have a fenced in yard they can enjoy and four house cats that are very dog friendly.

About: I believe that dogs need walks!! Not just let out to go to the bathroom, but real physical activity! Dogs need to see the world around them - this makes there temperament better equipped to handle strangers and other animals. I have a sweet yellow lab who thinks she is human -- no, really!!!! My Jags wants to play all the time. She loves other dogs - we are a dog lovin family! I believe that giving dogs proper exercise is what may set me apart from other sitters -- Im a fast walker. I am a responsible adult who cares deeply for the comfort and well being of all animals!! Fresh water is a must as well. I can't wait to meet your pup! Thanks for considering me. I’m very flexible! I work from home and that allows me to be flexible with my schedule – thank you so much! I look forward to serving you! I care for each pet as my own- I love fitness and making sure dogs and cats get the care and attention they deserve and require!

I highly recommend Iuliana as a cat sitter. She is dependable, trustworthy, and truly cares about the pets she looks after. Knowing my cats were in her care gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Iuliana is always prompt, communicates regularly, and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of. She is kind, compassionate, and has a natural way with animals that immediately puts both pets and owners at ease. My cats were happy, relaxed, and well cared for when I returned home, which speaks volumes about the attention and affection she gave them.
