About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and owner with plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different personalities and needs. I’ve previously walked dogs and hosted dogs in my home, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to keep your pup safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away or busy. Having grown up with dogs throughout my life, I’m very comfortable with everything that comes along with caring for them—from daily walks and playtime to feeding, routines, and, of course, lots of attention and affection. I know every dog has their own personality, energy level, and preferences, and I’m happy to tailor walks and care to what makes your dog most comfortable. I’m responsible, attentive, and dependable, and I’ll treat your dog with the same care I would want someone to give my own. Whether your pup loves a long, energetic walk, prefers a relaxed stroll with plenty of sniffing, or just needs some extra companionship during the day, I’m happy to help! I’m currently planning my wedding and thought spending some of my free time with dogs would be a pretty great way to add a little extra to the wedding fund while doing something I genuinely enjoy. I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work full time in-person in the city, but available for early morning or evening walks + weekends. My schedule in the fall (October) will be more flexible with work. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. Whether in my home or yours, I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you know your pet is in good hands!

“Quiana did a great job taking care of our kitty, Kaiju! She kept us up to date on how it was going, and made an effort to play with her and make sure she ate all her food. Unfortunately our kitty was still a bit shy and not used to Quiana's presence, but when we got back she seemed very happy and content.”

About: Over the past 10 years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets as both an owner and sitter. I’ve worked with dogs and cats. Along the way, I’ve developed special skills like administering medications, handling pets with specific dietary requirements, and providing comfort to those with anxiety or medical conditions. Whether it’s a playful walk, quiet cuddle, or ensuring they stick to their routine, I’m committed to creating a safe, loving environment where pets feel happy, healthy, and well cared for! As a newly separated veteran preparing to start school, I have plenty of time and flexibility in my schedule to dedicate to caring for pets. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize maintaining their routines and ensuring they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I provide personalized attention, including feeding, walking, administering medications if needed, and plenty of playtime and affection. I also keep the home tidy and secure, treating it with the same care and respect as I do the pets.

“Liza watched my cat over the holidays and she was fantastic! She was great with the instructions I left and gave Felix lots of love and playtime while I was gone. I could tell she loves cats even from the meet & greet and it can be rare to find a sitter who likes cats as much as dogs. I definitely recommend her to watch your pets!”

About: I've loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. From ages 10 to 18, I lived in a home with multiple pets, including dogs, cats, and birds of all ages. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, playing, administering medication, and providing daily care to ensure they were happy and healthy. Today, I have my own dog, Loki, who has been part of my family for the past three years. I believe pets are family, and I treat every animal with the same compassion, patience, and love that I give my own. My goal is to provide a safe, caring, and dependable experience so you can have peace of mind while your furry family member is in my care. I'm available weekdays from 9 AM–9 PM and weekends from 10 AM–8 PM. Since I have a dog at home, I provide attentive care in your pet's familiar environment. I provide respectful, loving care in your pet's familiar environment, following their routine and treating them with the same attention and compassion I give my own dog. I am very comfortable with taking them on walks within your residential area.

Laura and Simon are amazing!!! I just moved to the area a few weeks ago and had to go on a work trip. My sitter cancelled last minute and I was able to rebook quickly with Laura. Even though we did not get to meet in person, they were very gracious and we were able to figure all the logistics out. They took amazing care of my 3 kitties, were very responsive, and sent great updates. I highly recommend them and will be using them in the future!

Hannah came by twice daily to care for my senior cat while I was away for 5 days. She gave me detailed notes on each visit, checked in on my preference for any questions she had or instructions that could be up for interpretation, and took lots of photos as well. I really appreciated how she was reliable and made me feel my cat was in good hands.

Victor was absolutely excellent! This was my first time using Rover and Victor ensured it went smoothly. He is extremely professional and knows how to handle your pet. He was very comfortable during our meet & greet with my dog. Some people can get intimidated by her size (great Dane) but he didn't have an issue and she instantly cozied up for pets. He kept to our arranged schedule and was kind enough to send updates and photos throughout. Would highly recommend Victor and I will be booking him again!

Caitlyn stopped in every day to check on Harper while we were on a long trip, following my long list of written instructions perfectly. I felt much less guilty about leaving knowing she was well cared for. Her dishes were kept clean, she got play sessions and clean water, and she got lots of attention.

Abbey was/is wonderful! I'd had another sitter cancel at the last minute, and she came through, responding right away, coming over to meet my two cats and to confirm the schedule we set up. She sent updates about and pictures of my kitties (which helped with the fact of me missing them:) They quickly adjusted to her presence, which was awesome. She took time to feed, play, and just love them up! She clearly loves and is delighted by animals in general! Upon my return, it was clear my cats were happy, settled, and had been well looked after. Abbey also took care with instructions given, letting me know along the way if she had questions. I felt like my cats were in very good hands, and would highly recommend Abbey to others. She's good, kind, caring, and totally responsible on all fronts. Thank you very much Abbey!

Megan took great care of Eloise while I was away! It gave me real peace of mind to know that Eloise had someone so attentive looking after her. Eloise can sometimes be apprehensive of new people, but I could tell Megan was great with cats when Eloise went right up to her for pets. I highly recommend Megan for all your cat-sitting needs.

Kelsey was an amazing pet sitter. She really cared about my cat and went the extra mile in every way she could. I forgot my cat was running low on food so she brought some of her own food to save the day. She also made a homemade wet mix as a treat for my cat, which he loved. She even went so far as to vacuum my house to make sure it was clean when I got home. I could also tell she genuinely enjoyed spending time with my cat and was excited to visit each day. I have booked twice with Kelsey and I know I will be booking again. This was a wonderful experience!
