“I can highly recommend Ashley to care for your pets. Our Border Collie is elderly and has trouble getting up and down because of arthritis. Ashley has been wonderful dealing with her - making sure she is fed and goes out at least 3 X a day. I don't have to worry when I know Ashley is taking care of our fur baby. Ana C.”

7. Esmeralda G.

“Esmeralda has been exceptional with her patience and willingness to be adaptable in working with our 2 dogs. Both have big trust issues and are very nervous to allow new people around them. She has devoted a lot of her extra time to make sure they get and feel comfortable with her. That being said, she has relieved a lot of stress and concern on my end for I want my dogs to feel as little anxiety and fear as possible as well as benefit from having the ability to go outside and go for a walk and get some fresh air. I hope Esmeralda can be a part of our household as long as possible and enjoys the dogs as much as I enjoy having her help.”

I have trusted Jordyn with not only my dog but my child and have no doubt in my mind that she is protective, trustworthy, and engaging. Rest assured that your pet will be safe under Jordyn’s care.”

15. Ricardo C.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my genuine love and care for dogs. Growing up with dogs, I developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. My lifelong passion for dogs drives me to create a loving, supportive environment for every pet I look after. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. Each morning, I prioritize feeding and walking the dogs, ensuring they start their day with exercise and love. Throughout the week, I set aside dedicated time for play, keeping them engaged and happy. I also make sure to check in on their health and well-being regularly. This routine allows me to bond with the pets and ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I work remotely from home and have the flexibility to do this. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe and loving environment with plenty of space to play and relax. I have designated areas for feeding, sleeping, and playtime, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. Also my backyard is fenced. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to maintain consistency for the pets. This includes feeding them at their usual times, sticking to their exercise schedule, and providing plenty of companionship. I also make sure to keep the home clean and safe for the pets, ensuring they have access to fresh water and a cozy spot to rest. Whether at my home or theirs, my goal is to create a nurturing atmosphere that caters to each pet's individual needs.


16. Jozlyn N.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was about nine! Kittens and puppies, to senior care, I’ve done it all. Keeping your animal clean, entertained, and happy is my top priority! At the moment, I utilize rover and delivery services! In my free time, I enjoy playing with my two cats and cleaning up the house! Depending on your request will depend on how I care for your pet! If they require a kennel for nighttime, or if they’d like to sleep in the bed for an overnight stay, you let me know!


17. Joanna J.
“Joanna is an animal lover. She has her own cats and has taken care of dogs for her friends. She is reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate. She looks after all pets affectionately. Apart from feeding them, She talks to them, plays with them lovingly, and gives the attention needed, so pet owners can have peace of mind when away.”


18. Patricia F.
“Patricia has taken care of my dogs many times and she always provides top notch care. While in Patricia's care, my dogs get both individualized attention (belly rubs) and outdoor time (walks and playtime in the yard). I get updates and pictures from Patricia which eases my mind while I'm away from them. My dogs come home happy and are always happy to see her, which is a tell-tale sign that they enjoy their time in her care.”


19. Hillaury P.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs from my home for my neighborhood and my previous neighborhood for over 15 years. I’m reliable and trustworthy. I’ll take care of your dog like it’s mine! I do not have any pets of my own. It's just me and my 2 year old daughter. I work from home and can care for your dog while I’m at home. I also have a flexible job that allows me to step out at a moments notice. I'm a solo mom to a 2 year old that LOVES dogs. I have a large fenced in yard. Also, your dog will have access to the commons areas in my home and will not be restricted to a crate.


20. Crystal M.
“Crystal is an amazing person who, loves all animals. She has helped me when I was out of state and my dog was staying at a boarding kennel and my dog got sick. She dropped everything and went to pick up our dog from kennel, took him to the vet and cared for him at her home until we got back from vacation. That was just 1 amazing thing she did for us. She has a very big heart and is very loving with pets. She would be a completely responsible and capable pet sitter.”
