About: I work as a nurse during the week, but spend every free moment I have with my dog. Most of my free time is spent exploring with Bandit, training, or getting plenty of snuggles in. He goes everywhere with me and is basically my child! I hope to give your dog(s) that same level of love and care while you’re away. I have extensive experience with a wide variety of dogs through personal ownership, volunteer work, past clients, and group training settings. I am very comfortable with extra-large breeds, as I previously owned a St. Bernard. As he aged, he developed special needs, so I’m especially comfortable caring for senior dogs and those who require extra attention. I hope to give back to others the same compassion and care my dear Deputy received in his later years. Over the past year, I’ve worked closely with a professional dog trainer and have learned so many valuable skills. If you’re ever looking for a trainer, I’m happy to share a great recommendation! Ultimately, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your baby is treated like family—and to get a few extra doggy kisses in return. I typically work M-F 8-430 pm but have flexibility with my job. This makes most of my availability after 3/4pm M-F. Friday evenings and the weekend I am much more flexible. If you don't see availability that you need on my calendar, feel free to reach out and I'd be happy to work something out! I am happy to follow any rules you may have for your dog. I am willing to come meet your dog(s) before the first visit to ensure everyone, including the dogs, feels comfortable. I will always send pictures during visits so that you know they were well loved. If you have a dog that has a history of aggressive reacticity I do require a meet and greet prior to the first visit. In the case of a non-aggression case and we are unable to meet prior to the first visit, I will ensure to reach out and obtain all details needed to provide safe care for your pup!
“Melissa has been a real lifesaver for me many, many times. She's great with both my pets (a rambunctious cat and anxious dog) and can often come over on short notice. She is a great communicator and definitely will take great care of your animals! Highly recommend!”

“We have four cats with very different needs and very different personalities (some less social than others), but they all love Erica - she’s got a way with animals that never fails to amaze. We consider ourselves lucky to have found her!”

“Lee is a fantastic sitter! She is very responsive to all communications and goes out of her way to be helpful in any way. She obviously loves animals and truly enjoys caring for them. She did a great job in following all instructions provided and spent a good deal of time giving our kitty lots of pets while we were gone. We will definitely rebook Lee in the future!”

About: I began working as a neighborhood pet sitter and dog walker in my early teens. Since then I have accumulated a decade of experience in pet care, including working at rescue, doggy daycare, and pet boarding facilities. I have always striven to achieve the highest quality of care. If your pet has a complex care routine, rest assured that I will show great attention to detail in meeting your pet’s needs. I have enthusiastically accommodated dogs and cats with special behavioral, emotional, and medical needs. I have significant experience in administering prescription medications, including pills, topicals, and injections. I also have over a decade of experience in pet-sitting for exotic animals, including snakes, lizards, frogs, fish, chickens, rats, and various invertebrates. I am currently working part-time, so I have ample availability! I am free throughout the day on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. I am free before 6AM and after 5PM every day of the week. I am not available from 6AM-5PM on Thursdays, Fridays, or Sundays. I have been visiting client’s homes for pet care for many years. It’s extremely important to me to treat client’s homes and house rules with the utmost respect.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life! I’ve had family fur babies since I was young. I learned at an early age the responsibility it takes to love and care for your pets. I prefer to come to your home where you and your pets are most comfortable. I’m qualified to care for pets varying in age, from pup/kitten to senior care. I’m an extremely trustworthy, loyal, responsible, clean, fun and loving person who just wants to help people when they are in need and what better way to do that than to love on their fur babies when life gets busy! I have a fairly flexible schedule. I work from home three days a week (most weeks) Typically, Monday, Wednesday and Friday (In office Tuesday and Thursday). I will do my best to make a schedule that works for all of us! I will care for your pets however you prefer. I would like to do meet and greets to ensure that you and your pet are comfortable as well as myself. I can fine tune the details once the client and I agree that we are a match!
About: I started longer-term overnight dog sitting about three years ago. I do frequent daytime potty breaks for friends when they are out of town. I have watched cats as well. I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years and I enjoy both cat and dog snuggles. Not currently working much, schedule is flexible which is ideal for your puppies that may need potty breaks while you are at work during the day or away on weekends. Unfortunately, I will only go to the clients home. I will not bring other animals into my house. I do own a cat and this is something my husband and I have agreed on.
About: I absolutely love taking care of pets! Regardless of age or energy level, they will be in great hands with me. I have taken care of my cat Garbanzo since she was 6 months old and she is now almost 4! We are absolute best friends and seeing her everyday is such a joy. I also grew up with dogs of varying from small a shih tzuI to a great dane then to pitbull mixes. I have taken care of friends and families pets while they were away and it’s always something I've looked forward to. I love sending pet pictures to their owners to show they are well loved while away, and am communicative if I have any questions or concerns! I want to provide the care for your pet that I would want for mine. I currently have an open schedule while in between jobs. This means daily check-ins even a couple time per day will work for me. My calendar will be updated as that changes. I will follow instructions provided to me by the owner to ensure proper care as all pets require something different. If I have any questions I will be sure to reach out to the owner. I want the owner to feel comfortable knowing I will follow what they want for their pet.
“Pam did an amazing job with my 3 kitties. She sent pictures with all of the updates, and was even able to win over the shy guy of the bunch. Will continue to book in the future.”

“Hi there! This was my very first time using Rover and I was certainly very nervous to entrust my little guy with a new sitter since our recent move! However, Alex was fabulous ! He is everything you could want and more from a sitter and from a caregiver to your furry friends/family. Alex is extremely responsive, he arranged for at least 2 visits to meet my cat Oliver and to review schedule, questions, concerns, diet etc. Before actually starting the pet sitting. He got to know Oliver and his demeanor, and my cat took to Alex right away. Alex is gentle, playful and affectionate and you can see that he genuinely cares. I always worry when returning back from a trip about how Oliver may be and how my home may look, and Alex took such great care of my cat and my home looks just as I left it. I now feel comfortable going on more trips to see loved ones and I couldn't have done this without Alex.”

“Samantha was excellent. This was my first time hiring her services to watch my cats while I was away. She reported in every day and ensured she gave my cats attention during the visits. She was prompt on visits every day, and I felt good about being away with her stopping by to make sure they're taken care of. Highly recommend her services!”
“The absolute best! We had zero worries while my husband and I were on vacation. Amanda took care of our Mikleo like he was one of her own. She will be our go to for Mikleo!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and communication I provide. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make it a priority to keep owners updated with photos, detailed notes, and quick responses. I stick closely to routines, pay attention to little details, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Perfectly and will be priority. Since pet care is my main commitment, I’m able to structure my days around consistent routines, timely visits, and individualized attention. I don’t squeeze pet care around another job, which means I’m dependable, responsive, and available throughout the day for updates or changes. When house sitting, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine and keeping your home running smoothly. I follow all feeding, walking, playtime, and medication instructions closely, provide plenty of companionship, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their own environment. I also keep the home tidy, bring in mail or packages if requested, and send regular updates with photos so you always know how things are going.
“Kristin has been absolutely amazing with all our cats, and always goes above and beyond. It’s so important that I know my cats are in good hands while we’re away from them. I could not recommend her more.”

“Kimberly was amazing! Her communication was great, she sent pictures of every walk along with a map of where they went, and overall she took wonderful care of our dog Fitz. We are so glad to have found her! :)”

“Sara was exactly what Charlie needed while I was away on vacation. She made sure he was taken care of and gave me piece of mind readjusting my pet camera whenever Charlie would knock it down! I'll definitely ask Sara to look after Charlie again.”
