“Eleanna was amazing with my older dog Ollie! He’s a reactive dog but Eleanna took the time and had the skills to help him adjust while I was away and took some adorable photos!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers for years and genuinely love being around animals. I’m dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s personality and routine. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, administering basic medications, playtime, crate routines, and giving pets extra patience and attention so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important trust and communication are, so I always make sure owners receive regular updates and photos. I work full-time during the week but have flexibility in my schedule for pet care before and after work, on weekends, and for check-ins throughout the week depending on location. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, staying active, and making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to keeping consistent routines for feeding, walks, medications, and playtime. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and home, so I prioritize safety, communication, and consistency. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level to help them feel secure and stress-free. I keep owners updated with photos and messages, closely follow feeding and medication instructions, and always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and cared for with patience and attention. In clients’ homes, I’m respectful, clean, dependable, and focused on maintaining a calm environment for pets.
“Qishu was amazing with our high energy dog and extremely communicative with us. We received lots of updates and pictures over all the days we were gone. We would unreservedly recommend Qishu to anyone!”
About: I am experienced in providing gentle, including walks to the parks and beaches, while maintaining a calm and comfortable environment inside home and outside home. My job requires me a peculiar freedom to have a flexible schedule. I am morning person and love going in evening strolls regardless of sorting setting. In my home, I create a fun and safe space for pets, with cozy spots to relax, play, and eat. They get fresh water, regular walks, and all the love and attention they could ask for! I stick to their routine to keep them happy and stress-free. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel right at home, following their usual routine. From daily walks and playtime to feeding and cuddles, I keep everything tidy and comfy. I want them to feel relaxed and loved while their owner’s away!
“Dane was amazing and I’m so relieved to have found such a great sitter on our first go at Rover. He’s extremely communicative and took amazing care of both our cat and dog. We received frequent updates and photos and knew both our babies were in good hands. Our dog was extremely well exercised, and Dane went above and beyond to still check in and greet our cat (while giving her space) who doesn’t do well with people. Dane also went above and beyond to leave our house neater than when he first arrived! Would highly recommend Dane, and I’m so glad to know we have a reliable, trusted sitter for future vacations!”
“Kerri was such a caring, communicative house and dog sitter. She was unfazed by Tibbie’s quirks and seemed to love him for him. Our house was tidy and taken care of when we arrived back home after a long weekend. Thanks so much Kerri!”
“Meshaal was a wonderful dog and house sitter! He has a calm demeanor and is very professional. He took excellent care of our senior dog who has some health needs and took care of all his medications with no issues. He also promptly responded to all our check in messages. Our dog loved Meshaal and and was crying when he left! Meshaal also left our house better than we left it. Looking forward to rebooking with Meshaal again in the future. Would definitely recommend Meshaal to others!”
“Barbara has taken excellent care of both of anxious/reactive big dog, and our home while we have been out of town. She is reliable and so helpful, I never have concerns leaving Rocky in her care. I recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pups!”
“Dennis is a considerate and kind person, a wonderful dog sitter for us and our German Shepherd. Our GSD is older and requires a cart when being walked. Dennis took the time to ask for what he needed to feel comfortable getting her into and out of the cart, making sure he had the dietary and medication needs defined, and meeting with us to ensure everyone thought it was a good fit. I highly recommend Dennis if you need a pet sitter! He left our home just as it was when we left, and we had the peace of mind of knowing our special-needs dog was well cared for while we were away.”
“G’la was great with our two dogs! We loved all of the wonderful pictures she sent and our dogs clearly had a good time. She even went above and beyond to coordinate visits with our landlord while we were away. Thanks, G’la!”

About: Friends have asked me to care for their fur babies at numerous times in my life. I'll make sure your pet is cared for like my own. I'm open to giving medication, if necessary. From pups/kittens to senior care, I can manage them all. I want to help pet owners during my free time. Since I currently don't own pets at this time, I've decided to help those who are. I work full-time, but sometimes I have more time weekdays as well. Generally, I'm pretty open on weekends and after 3:30pm during the week. Since I don't currently have my own pets, I'm gonna provide great care to yours! I enjoy taking dogs for walks. I live near an amazing park. Making your pet feel comfortable and happy is important. Once trust is built, all will be well.
“Alyssa was incredible! She took amazing care of Pip, was super communicative, and went way above and beyond! I felt 100% comfortable knowing Pip was getting lots of love and attention while I was away!”
“My dog Chimali loved Jenna! She kept up with his super high energy, and didn’t mind playing with his favorite toys and taking him for walks around the neighborhood. She was dog sitting at my apt and kept the place clean while she was here. She sent me pictures and communicated during the weekend. She also was happy to snuggle with my sweet little dog since he isn’t used to sleeping alone. He had a good time with her and looked happy in his pictures. He made a new friend. I would reach out to Jenna again.”

Our pet sitter fell through last minute and Victoria was a life saver!! She was prompt, communicative, and incredibly caring. Our lab/pitbull mix was comfortable with her immediately. She's flexible if your dog has any special needs/attention. The updates Victoria sent while we were gone made us feel like our pup was in great hands and eased our anxieties about leaving him with a stranger. Book with Victoria if you want your pets in caring, loving hands!
5 ⭐ — Above and beyond in every way Charlii is simply the best. We left our two dogs with her for several days and came home to two happy, well-loved pups. She sent consistent updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave us such peace of mind. She handled their daily medications without any issue, was clearly attuned to each of their personalities and different play styles, and made sure they got plenty of good walks. What really set Charlii apart was how she handled an unexpected situation — one of our dogs developed his first hotspot mid-stay, and she responded quickly, calmly, and kept us informed every step of the way. It’s one thing to care for dogs when everything goes smoothly; it’s another to show that level of attentiveness and resourcefulness when something comes up. She nailed it. We cannot recommend Charlii highly enough. She’s our go-to from here on out — don’t hesitate to book her!
I’ve had Barbara house sit with my animals two times now, and she has been communicative and helpful each time. I was running around before my trip and I forgot to leave her instructions in my home, but she was super understanding and helpful when I reached out with notes on medication and food. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
Madeline did an amazing job watching our two cats and dogs while my husband and I were out of town. She made sure to always check in and give the best updates. I always believe animals are great judges of character and all four of our animals took to her right away.
Thuy was an awesome dog and house sitter. She sent pictures regularly (without me even asking) which helped out my mind at ease. She also sent regular updates on how my pup was doing. She also left recommendations for me regarding my pup based on her experience with him. I would definitely recommend Thuy and book her again!!!
Marina is awesome! We have two big very anxious dogs, one a senior who requires meals prepped a specific way & medication and the other an extremely strong puller on walks. Marina not only handled their special requirements with no issue, she totally bonded with dogs. She even adjusted the senior's meds per my instructions on the fly while we were on vacation. We came home and they were so calm and happy -- this has NEVER happened, even when we leave them with family. She's easy to work with, great communication, and kept our house exactly as we left it. We will absolutely be booking her for any dog sitting in the future. Thanks, Marina!!!❤️
Shelly watched my large, leash reactive and cuddly pup for 6 days. She communicated in advance of the sit, sent great daily photos and arrived on time. I returned to a happy pup and a house just as I'd left it. Shelly is a true professional who I'd highly recommend.
Heather was wonderful with our dog, who is rambunctious and can be slow to warm up. She took the time to meet her at a meet and greet and showed our dog a lot of patience and understanding. When dog sitting in our home, Heather was very communicative and shared many photos. It was clear that our dog was being well cared for. Heather left our home clean and our dog happy.
I hired Robin to watch my kitty, Nyx, for a long weekend. Nyx is a sweet lap cat with me but very shy and usually hides in the closet when my friends come over. With Robin she rolled on her belly and purred within the first moments of meeting her. It was so comforting to me. Robin knows how to be calm and gentle and the first night sent photos of Nyx on her lap. She was communicative and caring. Additionally, Nyx needs medication twice a day and Robin handled that easily too. I can't say enough great things about Robin or how she cared for my cat and I would highly recommend her to anyone.
