About: I've lived with dogs nearly my whole life, and cats for half of it. I have taken care of said pets for years and been an in-family pet sitter on numerous occasions. My mother frequently cares for other pets through apps like this/through friends, and I assist her with that when needed. At the moment, I care for my mother's pets when she leaves town for any length of time (1 small/medium dog, 1 cat). Otherwise, I'm a free agent. Some of the services listed on the app have the potential to overlap (such as a visit and a walk), I don't consider the price to be totally compounding, just let me know and we can figure out what works best. I'd imagine this is on a situational basis. I'll pet/feed/walk them and am able to follow directions as well as any human, should your pet require specific, or unique, handling. I can usually read pet body language pretty well, but have no specific training in it. If there are any areas of confusion for me, I'll be sure to ask questions to make sure your pet is cared for properly.

About: My husband and I recently returned from Costa Rica where we volunteered on a dog farm assisting with bathing, grooming and giving lots of love to almost 2,000 rescued dogs that live there. My husband also has a separate rover account under Maxi S. During my high school/college years my mother trained 5 different dogs for guiding eyes for the blind which I helped in the training process as well while home. I also started housesitting and caring for pets of local neighbors at the young age of 10. We have always had dogs in my home. I couldn’t imagine living without a dog. I have experience with dogs of all ages, puppies to senior dogs. I myself have a 9 year old cocker spaniel who thinks she is a human. I understand all pet owners and their pets have different needs and will respect any rules required to give your pet the care they need. I will treat your dog like my own. My family just returned from Costa Rica. My husband and I are both looking for flexible part time work which allow us to still care for our 1.5 year old son. You can also find my husbands separate rover account under maxi S. At the moment our schedule is open and flexible but as we find work our schedules will be changing depending. We have a good sized yard which is not fenced in but in a quiet neighborhood with a cul-de-sac. I don’t usually crate my dog, but if your dogs are crated I am familiar with crate training. I am a flexible person and am able to modify based on your pets needs.

“Cayton was terrific. My dog is normally very anxious and she was wonderful with Lucy. They went on a nice long walk and Cayton sent me pics and lovely feedback. This was their first walk together but there will be many to come!”

“I booked Katherine last minutes for a few days and she was wonderful! So good with my dog, Lulu! Took the time to get to know her and asked a lot of questions. Her maturity and attention to details was amazing! I will definitely be booking her again soon!”

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my hands-on experience and deep understanding of canine care. I’ve worked in a professional kennel, which gave me valuable insight into dog behavior, health, and daily routines. At home, I care for my own large German Shepherd, so I’m comfortable handling big, high-energy breeds. I’ve also regularly watched my sister’s dog and other dogs, both short-term and for extended stays, so I know how to create a safe, comfortable environment that feels like home. My combination of professional and personal experience means your dog will be treated like family—with structure, love, and attention tailored to their needs. After working with animals and having my own dog I wanted to incorporate that into my life, so I have plenty of time to hang out and take care of your puppies. I am available throughout the day and would love to spend time with your loved ones! I have a very friendly German shepherd at home, who you are more than welcome to meet, and I walk him multiple times throughout the day and your dog will be able to join us. I also have a crate if you want your dog to be in the crate I also have the ability to do that.

About: Hello! My name is Sam and dogs have been my passion for as long as I can remember. I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager, and have always had a hand in caring for my family's pets. Within the last year I have had the opportunity to help whelp two litters of Bernese Mountain Dog puppies and it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I love getting to know new dogs and cats, and have been known to leave my table at a restaurant to pet a dog I see through the window. I am the person at the party seeking out the pets so I can talk to them, rather than talk to the humans! I attend obedience classes with my own dogs weekly, and will be attending handling classes soon as well. Nothing brightens my day like being greeted by a dog, and getting to take care of them. We currently have three dogs and three cats in our home. Nothing is more important to me than your animal's comfort and safety.

About: I have a depth and variety of experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve worked at a doggy daycare, where I handled multiple dogs at once in group settings, giving me valuable experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities. I’m very familiar with reading canine body language and making sure play stays safe and respectful. I’ve also cared for both puppies and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable adjusting my care to their unique needs—whether it’s helping with early training for a new pup or making sure an older dog is comfortable and supported throughout the day. On top of that, I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, which has taught me to be attentive, patient, and genuinely connected to each dog I spend time with. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. My schedule is currently very flexible and accommodating, which allows me to take on regular walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting as needed. I truly enjoy spending my time with your furry friends, so fitting pet care into my day feels natural and fulfilling, whether it’s a quick walk or an overnight stay. I only offer care in my client’s home, and I always do my best to make sure your pet feels comfortable and safe in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and any specific needs they may have. Whether it’s feedings, walks, playtime, or medications, I follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet and home with the utmost respect and care.

“Mary Jo is an excellent pet sitter!! She took care of my dog and 2 cats for a week, coming to my house 2x per day. Mary Jo is reliable, conscientious and kind. She also stayed in contact which I really appreciated. Next vacation I'm definitely booking Mary Jo again and highly recommend her!!”

“Samantha was very prompt and thorough with her communication. She was great with our dog and gave updates when she arrived and provided a picture too!”

Patrick C.

“I was so grateful to find Allie and can’t wait to use her in the future. I don’t have animals but my parents and in laws do who we watch often. It was so nice to have peace of mind while I’m at work that they were taken care of. Allie came over to do a meet and greet before hand and the dogs immediately felt comfortable and loved her. She is responsible, caring, and a total animal lover. I can’t wait to use her in the future and will definitely recommend her to everyone I know!”

“Duck had a wonderful walk with Adriana! I was very pleased and loved the pictures from the update. Adriana was very communicative and attentive. Highly recommend!”

Claudia P.

“Matt is great with dogs! Bruno can be challenging with new people (testing limits to see how much he can get away with) but Matt knew exactly how to handle him when he took him for walks. He arrives right on time and I appreciate how communicative he is. I am so glad we found Matt and since he lives so close to us, he became our go-to dogsitter!”

Monika L.

“She did great and I give her high marks on communication.”
