“We are officially done with week 1 of me going back to the office and Arin taking care of our high energy 14 week puppy during the lunch hour and things have been great! Arin always provides updates and has been very patient as we work through all of the training and teething going on at this stage. :)”

“Kay took excellent care of my 2 cats and my outdoor tomato plants while I was away for a long weekend. Cats were chill and happy upon my return. Kay communicated with me frequently and quickly. I didn't feel like I had to worry about anything while I was away.”

“Kaylee was amazing! Last minute we needed a sitter for our dog and she was super responsive and fit us in on a busy holiday weekend. We had a meet and greet and my dog was immediately attached to her! She sent pictures with each visit and kept us updated on how our dog was doing! She was really the best! I will book with her again in the future 😊”

About: I was born and raised with pets in the home all my life including dogs, cats, birds, rabbits and fish. I have a rescue German short-haired pointer/blue heeler mix who I have had for about 8 years and she is my everything. I have pet sitted dogs such as Golden Retrievers, Mini Chihuahuas, Huskies and Boxers in the past for family, friends and neighbors, from puppies to seniors. I consider myself to be very detail-oriented and intuitive, and will make sure that your pet is spoiled and treated just like my own (who is my child). I’m currently available during the weekdays and weekends for sitting, drop-ins and walks. I am not currently working at the moment so I have a flexible schedule. My dog has free range in my home (her bed and the couch are her favorite spots), but am comfortable with crating, using pee pads and baby gates if need be, whatever your routine is!

“Aparna took care our cat for two weeks. She always comes on time. When we came back, our cat is very happy, clean and healthy. I highly recommend Aparna for caring your pet. We will hire her again for our next travel plan.”

About: “Good enough” care isn’t good enough for your pet. You deserve someone who communicates, follows through, and doesn’t treat your pet like a side hustle. Someone invested in keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. And the experience to do it even in unexpected circumstances. As the pet parent to a medical fragile dog myself, I know how hard it is to trust a stranger with the furry members of your family. I’m a lifelong dog person and a first-time Rover-er, but not new to responsible, informed care. I have hands-on experience and professional training in leash skills, fear-free methods, enrichment, and working with anxious, spicy, or high-energy pups. I work from home and have a flexible weekday schedule. I’m fully available for walks and drop-ins Monday through Friday before 4pm. I also have some evening and weekend availability (just check the calendar). Once we’ve gotten to know each other, I do offer house sitting and boarding for existing clients who need ongoing support. These days I live with a clingy rescue pit and the occasional foster dog. I volunteer regularly at RACC, walking dogs of every size, breed, and temperament—from skittish lapdogs to 100-lb giants trying to live out their sled-dogs fantasies. I’ve completed training in dog handling and behavior, and I have plenty of experience with pups who need a little extra patience, skill-building, or positive-reinforcement structure. Whether your dog needs routine and predictability, leash training, desensitization, enrichment, or just a cozy check-in and some companionship, I tailor care to fit them (and you). Communication is a big deal to me You’ll always know how things are going, and yes, there will be photo updates. Possibly too many. You’ve been warned. If you’re looking for someone who shows up, tunes in, and gives your dog the love they deserve while you’re away. I’m your person. Can’t wait to meet your good boy or girl (or little menace with a personal vendetta against the Amazon driver). I work part-time with a lot of weekday flexibility, especially before 4 pm. Some evening and weekend availability too. If possible, I'd love to meet your pup before we become best friends. Your dog’s care is always tailored to their personality, needs, and your preferences. If they thrive on routine, we’ll stick to their neighborhood route like clockwork. If they need leash practice, we’ll focus on skills. If they need more mental stimulation, I’ve got enrichment exercises, training games, and treat puzzles ready to go. If your dog needs exposure and socialization, we can head to a public park for controlled distance desensitization and positive reinforcement. And if they’ve got energy to burn, we’ll hit the trails for a hike that leaves us both happily exhausted. For drop-in visits, I can keep things chill or playful but always structured. I’m happy to work on crate manners, polite doorway exits, and other small habits that make a big difference. Or we can just hang out. Cuddles (if that’s their vibe), companionship, a good sniff around the yard, and a reminder that even when you’re away, someone still loves them a lot. Safety is always my top priority. Your dog will never be off-leash outside the home, and they’ll always be supervised, even if we’re just doing yard zoomies or sunbathing like royalty.

“Audrina took great care of our needy cat giving her several medications, and did great on her first time taking blood sugar and giving insulin! She brought in our packages and let us know if there were problems with the house while we were gone.”

About: I'm Recently retired, I've owned and cared for pets most of my natural life. From house training to hospice care, I've lived thru it all. Freshly retired, I've got lots of free time to care for your pets. I'm looking forward to meeting and caring for your awesomely precious pet! I have a large fenced in yard and one very friendly mini- Dachshund. I consider pets to be family members, and always treat them as such.

“Returning client. Great just like before!”

“Fergus (our cat) loves Virginia. He never purrs for anyone the way he purrs for her. When we got home today after being away for several days, my husband heard Fergus meowing through the door before we entered and said to me, "I pretty sure he's meowing 'Virginia! Virginia!' He's going to be so disappointed that it's us!" Virginia is great with Fergus, very kind to us, and has been just a perfect pet sitter.”
