About: I've been surrounded by pets my whole life. I grew up with many cats (currently have 5) and a super loving golden retriever. Ever since I was 12, my neighbors and family friends have trusted me to watch their pets. Now that I'm away from home, I love any opportunity to spend time with animals. I can assure you your pets will be well taken care of and in loving hands with me!! I'm currently self-employed, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I can house-sit or stop in for as long as you need any days/times of the week! I have watched many pets over the years. If you have a specific routine with your pet, I will easily be able to adapt to it so that your pet can stay in routine!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the past 7 years as well as fostering when I can. Your dogs will be treated like my own! Both neighbors & family members have offered me the chance to pet sit before anyone else because they knew their dogs were not only taken care of, but loved. There have been occasions when I could not pet sit & they moved around their vacation days just to have me over. They know my experience with dogs goes beyond my own & extends out to strays & for that reason, they trust in my ability to care & love for their animal friends. I’m very willing to bathe, give special care, run errands if necessary for the pet & tend to special instructions left to ensure the pets safety & well being. I take care of my three dogs on a daily basis from morning to night from feeding, timed medications, walks, backyard time & cuddles to their hearts content! It’s a must to understand all the rules & boundaries with pets & their owners. One of my own dogs has medications that cannot be missed & I have also watched after other dogs who have special dietary restrictions & have medications that need to be taken on time. In my experience, special care comes with frequent bathroom breaks, more love & attention, & a watchful eye. These are some of the things I’ve taken on while watching dogs/pets.

“So attentive and went the extra mile! She sent lots of pictures and updates and also brought treats for all the babies. I would definitely recommend and use Camila again. She left my house cleaner than when I left as well. Nothing but good things to say!”


“Todd was an exceptional dog sitter this was my first time to use Todd but I would definitely use him for future dog sitting. He was very attentive in regards to what my pets needs were and met those 100% he sent pictures and was in constant contact with me if questions arise. Todd is a five star dog sitter and I would highly recommend him for your dog sitting needs. We are ready have a trip planned and the following weeks and he is the only person that I would trust to stay with my babies. He is awesome!!!!!!”


“Katy was such a cat whisperer with our super shy rescue cat! Spent time bringing her out of her shell and giving her a balance of space and attention when she needed it. We could tell by all the photo and video and verbal updates that our girl was well taken care of. It eased our own anxiety’s as well. Will be calling Katy back everytime!”

“Brooke was absolutely incredible! This was our first time using Rover for an extended housesitter. She took AMAZING care of our 4 dogs, one of which has only been with us a few weeks and is experiencing some separation anxiety. She was communicative and she took the best photos to share with us! I know that we will use her again and recommend her to anyone. Our dogs mean the world to us and she really took care of them as her own.”


“Tony was excellent. We were out of town for 11 days, he sent us updates and photos. He is an amazing communicator. Our flight canceled coming home and I had my sister go pick up the dogs, she said that the dogs were so calm and happy. He also left my house spotless. I couldn't be more happy with Tony's services. We will be going out of town a few more times this year, Tony will be our FIRST choice, nd hopefully only choice. We couldn't be more happy with the respect and love he gave to our home and our dogs. Thanks Again Tony.”


“Ileanna was an amazing sitter! She was very patient with our two large dogs. She followed all of our instructions to the teeth and my dogs loved her. We would love to have her sit our dogs again!”


About: I’ve had animals since I was 6 years old and volunteered at the shelter a few times. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all different kinds throughout the years I work a flexible self employed job so I can adjust my hours to your schedule. I can take animals in overnight or keep them all day if needed I have a friendly little dog and cat. The litter box is always kept clean and it’s hooded so no dogs can get into it. If needed, there are other rooms in the house if animals need to be separated. All pet food is locked away and they are given 24/7 access to water. The back yard is fenced so they can roam outside.

About: Hi, I'm Rylee! I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, birds, and kittens. With over 10 years of experience caring for pets and more than 5 years of training and pet sitting for friends and neighbors. I’ve developed a deep understanding of animal care, especially when it comes to dogs. I specialize in dog behavior and body language, including recognizing signs of stress or overstimulation. I’ve trained puppies and have extensive experience with puppy sitting, helping them feel safe, stimulated, and supported as they grow. I’m passionate about giving pets the highest quality of care. I’ve completed multiple courses in dog training, body language, and nutrition to ensure I’m educated when it comes to caring for dogs. I prioritize dogs' well-being with mental and physical stimulation. In addition to dogs, I also have experience caring for cats and kittens. I have a 4-year-old cat and a 4-month-old kitten that I have raised since they were newborns. I provide a safe environment for your cat, and I understand that some cats need their space. Whether you need drop-in visits, overnight staying, or walking, you can be at ease that your pet will be in great, trustworthy hands. I am dedicated to making your pet feel safe, respected, and treated like family. I’m excited to meet your furry friend and provide the thoughtful, attentive care they deserve. My schedule is very flexible! I'm currently looking for a part-time job but in the meantime I have lots of time to care for your pets. In My Home: I will follow your pets same routine like walking and feeding but just in my own home. My house is fairly small so I won't be able to board more than one pet at a time. I have a deck that they can sit outside and sunbathe (with supervision). I will provide them with toys and puzzle games. I have a small dog named Rocky, at first he barks at other dogs but once he gets to know them he enjoys their company. I also have two cats that aren't fond of new visitors so I will keep them separated from your pets. In Your Home: I treat your space with the utmost respect and maintain your pet’s routine so they feel safe and at ease. I make sure doors and gates are securely closed, and I always clean up after feedings, potty breaks, and playtime. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you feel confident while you’re away.

About: I've had pets my whole life. I grew up with several dogs, and I raised 3 cats on my own as a teenager. Throughout my childhood I saw and helped all walks of life from puppy births to medications for various health conditions. When I met my husband as an adult, we came together to raise his dog and my cats. From puppies/kittens to senior and end of life care, we built our family with our pets. We currently have 3 cats, with a senior one that requires daily medical care. With my background, I know how important that pets are treated as family, as I have seen ours as children. I currently am managing a small business, but I only sell on weekends every once in a while for markets and conventions, so I have a large amount of flexibility to help on your time. I want to provide a comfortable and safe environment for everyone ultimately. For your pet, I try to gage what their personalities and preferences are to create a comforting and safe space for them when I enter their home. For the owner, I want to provide open and consistent communication, as I know from my own experiences how important updates can be when I'm feeling anxious about being away from my cats.

“Nicole is fantastic! My dog is wary of new people, and she met with us twice before our first booking to make sure he was comfortable with her. She sent great photos and updates the whole time, and I was completely at ease that my pups were well taken care of. Thank you, Nicole!”


“Amazing as always! She is so sweet and very attentive to the furballs. Very great with sending updates and pictures as well. We will definitely be using her again. All the babies love her!”


About: Hello my furry friend lovers!! I have cared for many different kinds of animals in my life, some of which include dogs,cats,birds,mice,rabbits,guinea pigs,fish,snakes,goats and now pot belly pigs. We love making homemade treats in our house so I am currently taking some pet nutrition classes to safely make special dietary treats. I am comfortable with all ages and sizes. I would be more than happy to meet you before any final decisions are made so that we can discuss everything there is to know about your pet. I have experience with different illnesses and medications from working with a rescue where I adopted my own angel with a neurological disorder. We absolutely adore pets and I can promise you that you and your baby will be treated like family. I am a stay at home wife that is taking pet nutrition and business classes so I could someday open my own pet boutique where everything is homemade. I promise no potty breaks will be missed and your baby gets all the love and cuddles they can handle. 😊 We have dogs, cats and pot belly pigs for your pet to play with in our fenced yard but we also have big crates for separation if needed. Your baby will be allowed on our furniture to sleep and get cuddles unless you say otherwise lol we do love our snuggles.
“I cannot begin to express my gratitude to Sahula (Rebecca) for the outstanding job she did for watching my kitties. She kept me posted with messages, pictures & videos throughout the day. I didn’t worry about them once while we were away. She even stayed later than originally scheduled due to our flight being delayed. When we returned, we found the house more organized and cleaner than when we left! I am praying she’s still available next year because after this experience, I don’t want anyone else watching them! Thank you Rebecca! I honestly can’t thank you enough!”

“I have very high maintenance dogs. One is 17 years old and uses 6 medications twice a day. She is also on a restricted Rx diet and has to be encouraged to eat. Emily has the patience and expertise to get her to take the pills voluntarily and its not always easy. Sometimes it takes forever to get it done but I always have confidence when I leave that Emily will make sure Roxy's needs are met. Emily loves dogs and cats and spends time petting my animals and playing with them. My dogs love her. And I love the way she cares for them and I love that I can leave them with her and not worry one bit! I also have 3 cats that she is in charge of feeding and making sure the litter boxes are clean.
