“China did a great job with our kids while we were gone! They got lots of love and attention, and the dogs got plenty of exercise from walks and playtime. She was also very detailed in her report cards and kept us updated on how they were each day. We would definitely recommend her!”


“Misty did great communicating with us while we were away. House was secure and clean when we came back and kids (pets) were happy. She did a great job! 👍🏻🤗”


“Great Job Rose, thank you so much. We will definitely be calling on you again! Did you get your envelope?”


About: I have had both dogs and cats my entire life and don't want to be without them ! My Husky Sharpei mix, Lily passed away in 2021 after 16 years of a long healthy life. It was a hard loss, so I started spending time with other people's pets and decided to turn it into a career. Through the years of petsitting i have learned alot about different animal personalities and i have gained experience with different levels of care. Some of the pets i have watched suffered from high separation anxiety, and have special needs. I have experience giving diabetic shots, administering oral medication, and topical oitments on cats and dogs. I have experience with extended stays, my longest so far being a month. I also have experience watching multiple dogs and cats. I have watched reactive dogs in the past and I am comfortable doing so if i know their triggers. I’m currently offering full time pet care, so I will have open availability to take care of your pets (: I am also willing to travel within a 40 mile radius to pet sit. Once your gone I pretty much resume your role, while pet care is a priority I still clean up after myself so you won't have to worry about coming into a messy home. Cats and dogs love to cuddle with me on the couch, so they will get plenty of attention hanging out with me.

“Myk'La is really nice and did a great job caring for my cat, including feeding, petting, giving meds, and litterbox cleaning. I definitely recommend her and will use her again if she is available to watch my pets.”


“So glad I went with Rover! Julie and her husband were so nice to meet. My boxers were well cared for. You can tell from the pictures they loved them and their play time. I will definitely be having them back. Thank you!!”


“Kat did a wonderful job taking care of our two energetic, needy kitties while we were away for a week. She was great at communicating, and she provided written and picture updates during each visit. I could tell she enjoyed playing with the girls (she was always trying out new toys when playing with them). In fact, they didn’t seem to miss us that much when we came back. I would be more than happy to have Kat take care of our kitties in the future!”


“I truly appreciated Katie to take care of my kitties when I was away. She loves my cats and my cats love her. They get along well at greet- meet section to understand my cats' habbits. I highly recommend Katie for taking care of your lovely pets when you are away. Thank you so much, Katie. Thank for the kitties' portraits in my kitchen. You are gifted and talented with arts and caring pets. Wish you all the best.”


About: Family members and friends have relied on me to watch their dogs, cats, and bunnies. My family always had pets growing up, so I’ve been around both dogs and cats my whole life. Because of this custom, I also have two cats now. They are my babies!! I have a full time job Monday through Friday. I am available in the mornings during the week before noon. I’m available anytime on the weekends, if you’re looking for a weekend vacay, and need someone to watch your fur babies! I’ll make sure their basic needs are met, and more! I’ll give them the same love and care that I give my own fur babies. If given any kind of care instructions by you, I will follow them exactly. My goal is to make your pets comfortable and happy while you’re away, so they don’t get too lonely!

“Very easy to work with and accommodating. Highly recommend. Caroline had a very positive experience, and I am very satisfied with Kayliegh's services.”


About: I have been around animals since I can remember. First dogs and cats, then along came lizards and rabbits! I am committed to providing high quality pet care to all kinds of furry friends. I am highly skilled in pet temperaments and social queues through my work at a doggy daycare and extensive research about reactive animals. I understand the importance of boundaries when it comes to animals and the importance of treating them with respect. Additionally, I am a photographer and would love to take photos upon request! I am currently an online social work masters student and am free all day to tend to your animal! My schedule is very flexible, so you come first! I will treat not only your pet with respect, but your home with respect. I understand the importance of taking care of the home and I am willing to do dishes, laundry, or lawn work if requested!

“Kaylee did a great job and was very patient with my stubborn bulldogs!”



About: I’ve worked as a veterinary nurse for 10 years and have worked with every size, age and energy level of dog and cat. I’m well versed in walking, bathing, potty training, and mind enrichment exercises, as well as multiple behavioral and medical conditions. I love caring for animals and have 2 cats and a dog, Siberian Husky, who needs a lot of activity and are spoiled daily. I know how to give medication, if needed, and how to deal with emergency situations. I can send pictures and videos daily to keep you updated. Your beloved furry family members will be well taken care of! I am available most days for the summer and can do morning, afternoon, and evening care. You can message me for further questions about scheduling. Let me know your pets daily routine they are used to, so I can stick as closely as possible to it to help them keep as much normalcy to their days as possible.

About: I grew up with dogs in my home, they became apart of the family. I’ve had 7 dogs of many breeds throughout my life, so taking care of them has become second nature. I start my day pretty early at 5am. My job is flexible so I can accommodate puppies or older dogs that may need more frequent potty breaks. I have a 2 year old dog myself that loves to play with other dogs. All dogs are leashes before the door opens for walks for everyone’s safety.

About: Thanks for stopping by. We're so glad you're here. We look forward to meeting you and your beloved animal. I have 25+ years of experience caring for pets. My teen has studied vet tech and will help me care for your pet. So you will get our services as a 2 for 1. I am home all day and we will ensure your pet gets lots of play time, outdoor time and of course, snuggles. I am usually home all day so it's rare that your pet will be home alone. Your pet will be taken outside very often, at least every 2 hours, so they will receive lots of exercise and play time. All pets will be treated like they are a part of our family. They will receive whatever care is most beneficial for them based upon their owner's wishes and the pet's needs. Pet owners: Please indicate any special needs, habits or things to observe. I want to ensure I'm aware of how to best take care of your pet.

“Angela was fantastic. She kept me updated and sent photos, we will use her again!”


About: I've been raised with all kinds of dogs since I was young, from Pomeranian to Rhodesian Ridgebacks. I'm familiar with puppy behaviors, as well as care for elderly dogs. My days off are Monday & Tuesdays to give me plenty of time to care and play with your pets in the early mornings to overnights. Otherwise I currently work in the community Thurs-Sun 8am-5pm with Wednesdays being 12-5, though I'm able to step away for any walks, drop-ins, or play times needed! Please reach out with any scheduling requests and I'll do my best to accommodate for you! I prefer crate trained pets, much like my own, but I'm comfortable being around free roam and cuddly buddies! If given enough time in advance, I would love to meet your pet beforehand to ensure a comfortable and informative visit for the both of us.
