“Our dog and chickens were well cared for during her stay at our house! She provided a ton of photos and communication throughout the week and really went above and beyond. We returned to a clean home and happy animals. I cannot recommend Xochilt enough!”

“Michelle was amazing. We were gone for 10 days in Europe and have a senior dog and she was fantastic making sure Ruby was comfortable and well cared for in our home. She communicated frequently and with lots of pics so our minds were at ease. She was attentive and the house was well taken care of too. We love Michelle!”

“Mark took amazing care of our pets on our vacation. Sent very thorough reports and pictures that left me with so much peace of mind. One of our cats got in a fight while we were gone and he took care of him like it was his own cat. I will absolutely use him again and would 100% recommend.”

Andrea L.

“Dana was great with my very shy pup during the initial meet-and-greet and was very communicative! She was also amazing when my poor pup came down with a serious case of the scratchies before I left. Dana had no issues administering oral medication or swabbing the area. I also appreciated the updates she provided so I had peace of mind while away from home. My pets seemed loved and cared for in my absence and my apartment was clean as well.”

“Naomi did such a wonderful job with our dog! She stayed in our home with Nellie for a week and kept Nellie company, exercised her, provided great updates, and tended to our house as if it were her own. We are so appreciative to Naomi and would most definitely hire her again!”

Carly P.

“Nathalia is the best! This is my first experience on Rover and she did not disappoint! She kept my 2 month old puppy entertained which can be tough so i’m so grateful for that! She made sure to update me on how my puppy was doing and did everything I asked perfectly. So nice and would definetly have her house sit again!”

Kenedee B.

“Zoe was amazing! Our German Shepherd is typically an anxious dog around new people but Zoe made him feel comfortable almost immediately. We felt very secure knowing that he was being well taken care of. Plus we got lots of pics and updates throughout our time away. We will definitely be having Zoe over again to watch Obi!”

Valerie C.

“Annie was such a sweetheart and so loving and understanding for our pup! He doesn’t get to experience new people too frequently and loved Annie from the jump. We would absolutely recommend her to other dog owners!”

Tracey M.

“My girls are very picky about who they like and don’t. They warmed up to Maya easily. I am thankful for someone who takes good care of them. My girls had just moved across country and I didn’t want to leave them in a kennel. I was happy that they could stay in their environment.”

About: I have been pet sitting and walking dogs for family and friends for about seven years. During that time, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, giving me experience adapting to each pet’s unique needs. Some of the dogs that I’ve regularly cared for include my Mom’s 2- year old Yorkshire Terrier, Monroe, who I watch monthly for around a week at a time, I take to vet appointments, groomer appointments, and walk almost hourly; my family friend’s 15- year old Pit Bull, Poke; another friend’s 18-year old Chihuahua, Seabastian; and my family’s 5 year old dog, Miniboss. I’ve also looked after several other dogs over the years, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, potty training and breaks, and providing companionship while their owners were away. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. Caring for senior dogs like Poke and Seabastian has taught me to pay close attention to their comfort, routines, and changing needs, while spending time with younger dogs like Monroe and Mini Boss has helped me keep up with energetic play, exercise, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always communicate clearly with owners and am happy to provide regular updates and photos. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and attention, I’ll care for them as if they were a part of my own family. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet have a positive, stress-free experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate times to walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I enjoy being active, so taking dogs on walks and spending quality time with them is something I genuinely look forward to. When caring for a pet, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions from their owner. I also make sure to provide plenty of attention, affection, and regular updates with photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, including their feeding schedules, exercise needs, favorite activities, and any special instructions, so I can keep their day as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I treat both their pet and their home with respect. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, freshwater, and lots of affection while maintaining the routine they’re used to. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can see how well your pet is doing while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority. I pay close attention during walks, make sure doors and gates are secure, and keep a close eye on each pet to ensure they’re happy, healthy, and comfortable. I care for every pet as if they were my own and strive to make every visit a positive experience.

“Lilly was amazing. She took great care of our pups and home. She sent us pictures and let us know how everything was going. We will book with her again in the future. Thank you Lilly !!”

About: What sets me apart is my patience and understanding of different pet personalities. I have a Frenchie of my own who definitely keeps me on my toes, so I truly understand that every dog has their quirks. I’ve learned how to stay calm, consistent, and loving even on the challenging days. Because of that, I’m especially attentive, patient, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. Pet care is already a consistent and meaningful part of my daily routine. I care for my own Frenchie every day, so feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training, and patience are second nature to me. I’m used to structuring my day around a dog’s needs, making sure they get attention, exercise, and consistency. Because of this, adding another pet into my routine feels natural, I’m already organized, dependable, and committed to giving animals the time and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide plenty of fresh water, and make sure they get appropriate exercise, playtime, and rest. I’m attentive to their body language and energy levels so I can adjust care to their needs. For dog walking, I prioritize safety by using secure leashes and harnesses, choosing safe walking routes, and keeping a steady pace that fits the dog’s age and energy level. I always make sure pets return home calm, happy, and well cared for.

“Catherine was INCREDIBLE! She took care of our needy labradoodle and high maintenance cat so well while we were out of town. She sent us daily updates and made us feel so comfortable leaving our animals babies with her. It was easy to see she loved them like her own!”

About: I have always been the go-to friend, when it comes to taking care of their pets while they are away. Over the years I have had experienced all sorts of dogs and cats, and have given them all the care and love as I do my own pets. ❤️ I’m a full time hairstylist who’s just wanting some animal interaction away from the salon. I have Mondays available from 11-3 to snuggle, walk and play with your fur babies. If I am making a home visit, I will spend 40-60 minutes with your beloved pet. Making sure water is topped off, and feed if need, while giving your pet undivided attention in your absence. If I am dog walking, my dog and I will stop in and take your dog for a fun jaunt and play in the park. (40-60 min). (If my dog doesn’t get along with your dog, we can make it just me.)

About: I have professional experience and training in various animal care roles, which has really helped me learn to work with all temperaments and needs. I was a lead animal tech for a dog hotel, which is where I was able to really fall in love with all breeds. I learned how to manage large play groups and keep all the fur babies happy, while watching dog’s behavior for signs leading to distress. I also worked in a veterinary hospital where I learned even more on keeping animals healthy and happy, as well as some grooming treatments. I volunteer at the Humane Society and Best Friends because I genuinely want to make all living things around me happier and make a difference where I can. I have been obsessed with all animals since I can remember, and have had the pleasure to experience and love so many different types and breeds. I would love to give your animals love!! My schedule is very open the next few weeks as I am preparing for upcoming trips. I have fairly open availability upon request. If needed, we can discuss me cleaning your space while you’re away as well. I would love to spend a lot of time with your fur baby! I am used to working with animals who may need a bit of reassurance or a bit more time to aclimate in a nervous environment. I have experience in shelter settings and a large history in health care, which makes me confident in deescalating situations and caregiving in general.

“Nicole did a great job caring for my dog! My pup is a little slow to warm up to new friends, but it sounded like everything went smoothly. I would book her as a sitter again!”
