“Giovanna took care of our cats for 3 weeks and I never once had to worry about them! I knew they were getting the attention and care they need. I would definitely rehire her in the future!”


“Erica took such great care of my two kitties while we were away for our wedding. She is responsive, pays attention to detail, and was great with our cats. She doesn’t just take care of their basic needs, she strives to give them stimulation and enrichment during her time with them. If you’re looking for someone to take amazing care of your pets, Erica is your girl!”

“My first time using rover and Daniel was great! I had a last minute family emergency and we had to leave town unexpectedly so I had nothing prepared. He was patient and had great communication! Loved getting pictures of my doggys while I was away!”


“Adelaide did an amazing job with even our most anxious pup. She took her time and gave them all the time they needed to run and have social interaction. She kept us updated and shared pictures and videos to help ease our worries about leaving the pups behind. We will be using her again!”


About: I have worked consistently with a couple families and several drop in services for family friends! I have taken the wonderful doggos on walks, assisted with their medications, fed them, provided baths/brushed their fur, gave them extra pets/hugs. I can provide basic animal care, I always do my best to observe their body language as well to make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I have also helped with a special needs doggo who was blind, gave him his medicine, guided him through his backyard to use the restroom, etc. I would also love to provide any cleaning such as cleaning their bowls, vacuuming up any hair, cleaning crates, etc. I do work full time on the weekends during the night and a few days of babysitting during the day during the week, but I am always flexible with my schedule! I always listen to the let parents and how their schedule typically is and go off of that, I really do love animals so I’ll spend more time playing with them, especially if the doggo wants that play time and extra love!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have two dogs of my own. I also spent two years fostering and rehabilitating German Shepherds through a rescue group, where I gained hands-on experience with a variety of temperaments, including anxious and high-energy dogs. I understand how important trust and patience are in pet care, and I treat every dog like they’re part of the family. I am a full-time nurse but I am off 4 days a week! I can’t wait to help your furry friends out. I alternate my schedule occasionally so just message me & I’ll let ya know my availability! I have a fenced in yard and a doodle who loves to be sociable. I don’t typically board pups at my home but I open to it on a pet by case basis. I do help my mom with her diabetic dog, I can do glucose checks, administer insulin, give oral medications, I have experience with Fostering tri-pods and epileptic animals.

About: Hi, I'm Tatum! I grew up in a multi-pet household, so I'm comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and everything in between! I offer drop-in visits, overnight stays, and dog walking and am happy to coordinate feeding schedules and playtime for multiple pets. I'm reliable, responsible, and dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment for your furry friends! I’m a teacher and coach during the school year so I typically get home in the late afternoon time. During the summer, I’m usually free! I employ what I describe as the perfect balance of a dog being in a home setting it's used to while also having the security on the individual dog level of a kennel boarding facility. I intend on delivering the same respect to the home and pet that I would like to receive.
