“Lisa responds quickly to messages. She sent pictures and information every day. I felt very comfortable with her coming to my house to feed, check on, and play with my cats, etc.”
“Jena is super sweet & trustworthy. My girls were as stress free as can be expected while they was traveling. They were loved on and well taken care of while I was gone. I would definitely use Jena again. Her daily check ins were always on point and well detailed with pictures which made my time away way easier ♥️”
“Nancy did a fantastic job of keeping me updated on my cats! She sent tons of photos, and went above and beyond by cleaning up things the cats had knocked over. Would highly recommend her!!”
About: Hi, my name is Stephanie! I work at an animal hospital part-time. I have multiple years of experience caring for animals so I know what it takes to take care of your pets. Cleaning up after them would be no problem. I can provide care for dogs, cats, and reptiles of all ages and sizes! My love for animals is endless. I am trustworthy, flexible, consistent, honest and experienced! I currently work at an animal hospital part-time. So, I will have plenty of time to play and watch over your pets. My schedule is pretty flexible so will be available whenever you need me. I have a fenced in yard for your pup to run around in. And a Labrador that will keep your pup company. I will care for your fur baby as if they are my own.
About: I’ve been a pet lover my whole life. I’ve had my own cat for the past 10 years, who is my buddy and life companion. I grew up with three other cats, two dogs, turtles, guinea pigs, hamsters, and parrots, and I’m also familiar with horse care. Our family recently expanded with a kitten and a puppy as well. I’m currently studying for recognition of my foreign education and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available almost any time. I’ll also be around for Christmas and New Year’s Eve. I can play with your pets at your place, take them for walks (or runs if they’re high-energy), and keep them entertained while you’re away. I’m also happy to teach dogs some fun tricks! Plus, I always send photo updates so you can see how happy your pets are.
“Becky had been a huge blessing to my pups when we are out of town. They love her and she has treated them as her own. I know they are in great hands with her. She is so easy to communicate with and always sends you photos and updates. We will always have Becky watching our babies!!! Thank you!!”
“Meagan took great care of my kitties and I will definitely be requesting her services again! She was so communicative and left thorough updates. I knew my cats were in good hands and had peace of mind while I was on my trip ?”
About: Hi there! I’m Amanda, and I’ve always had a soft spot for sweet dogs. Over the years I’ve cared for pups of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies with endless energy to sweet seniors who enjoy slow walks and extra snuggles. I know every dog is unique, so I take the time to get to know their routine, what makes them happy, and how to keep them comfortable while you’re away. I love going on walks, playing fetch, or just hanging out with pups who prefer cuddle time. I’m also reliable with feeding schedules, administering oral meds if needed, and keeping everything tidy so you come home to a happy, relaxed dog. I am no longer working full time in person (remotely working as of November), which now gives me more wiggle room to focus on pet care on weekdays and weekends (unless my schedule says otherwise). This new schedule allows me to spend quality time with pets, keeping them on their normal routine with walks, playtime, and attention while their families are away. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow your instructions exactly, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, or medications, so everything stays consistent. I make sure doors and gates are always locked, keep food and water fresh, and give lots of attention. I also send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy and safe.
“Thank you so much for loving our fur babies as much as we do! Very respectful of our home and accommodating of our needs for a week long of drop-ins with Loki and Kaia. Our two cats loved her and we adored receiving the photo updates through Rover Card! We will definitely book again 💛 Thank you for the cat treats and the sweet card, we appreciate you!”
“Logan is awesome, she was able to be booked on short notice and she definitely was a big help to me when I had to go out of town. She responds very quickly and always updated me on how my animals were doing. I will definitely book with her in the future. Thank you again for everything you do!”
“Sanchita was great. She followed all the instructions for all 3 of our dogs. She made sure she communicated to us and was on time for all of her drop in visits. The one thing I noticed was when she met our dogs, she didn’t react to them jumping and being excited, which made them relax faster than normally. Will definitely book her again.”
“This was our first time using a sitter for our cat, so of course we were pretty nervous. When we met Pauline, we knew that Lulu would be in good hands. She fed our cat as expected, played with her daily, and followed our instructions. She is great at communicating and she truly wants to help in any way she can. So yeah, she was awesome!”
“Very kind person, and she took great care of our cat and two guinea pigs! She was also very flexible when our travel plans changed which I greatly appreciated. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: Hey there! My name is Megan. Finding a trustworthy and affordable sitter who can provide your dog with the exercise, affection, and care they need while you’re away can be an overwhelming decision, so I’m here to provide the peace of mind that your dog will receive most personalized care while you’re away! Each dog has their own quirks, personality, likes, dislikes, and needs, and I do everything I can to be mindful and respectful of these. My visits are tailored to your dogs needs, but some examples of what a day might look like includes exercise and walks or jogs, play time, simple training commands, treats, belly rubs, and snuggles so your pup will never be bored or lonely. I do everything in my power to ease your anxiety, and your pet’s anxiety about being apart.

MY STORY: I’m an experienced dog walker and overnight sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your dogs and cats. I began dog walking and pet sitting when I was 10, retaining many repeat clients and “adopted” many honorary pet siblings along the way. Additionally I began volunteering at my local ASPCA rescue, and learned invaluable lessons there. In college, I spent time working with the 4 Paws for Ability Organization; fostering puppies who were training to be Support Animals. This included full time care, and light training, in order to prepare them for their very important futures! I also spent a year after college working at a boarding stable for show horses, where I cared for and cleaned the stalls of over 30 horses daily. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on adventures, hikes, and dog park dates, so your pup will never get bored. I’ve worked with 100’s of dogs of all temperaments, so nervous or shy rescue dogs are no problem. I’ve also worked at a holistic veterinarian office, so have experience with holistic medicine, calming techniques, physical therapy, injury rehabilitation, feeding, and administering medication. I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, etc. I’ve cared for pets who are elderly or sick, reactive dogs and those who struggle with PTSD and severe anxiety, and pets with very specific routines; so integrating any specific request into a visit is no problem and your instructions will be followed with the utmost care. Dogs are family to me, so you can rest assured knowing you have one of the best looking after your pets. Last minute requests are no problem, and I will do my very best to accommodate these stays so you have one less thing to worry about. My professional career allows lots of flexibility in my schedule, so most days I am available for walks, check ins, or long term pet care, as long as I have notice in advance. I update my availability calendar frequently, but if you’re uncertain, please feel free to shoot me a message and I’ll do my very best to accommodate your pet’s unique care needs. SERVICES: -Drop in Visits: Bathroom breaks, serving fresh food and water, administering medicine, quick playtime, walks, and ensuring your house is in good order. I am happy to discuss any particular care instructions you have for your pet as well. -Overnight Stays/ House Sitting: -Stay with your pup(s) overnight, and provide a personalized daily routine. -Daily exercise, from runs, to walks, hikes, and more according to your pets activity needs. - Feeding according to their regular routine -Lots of attention, play time, and cuddles. -Photo’s and updates throughout the visit. -Light grooming.

Please let me know if your dog or cat: -Is a senior or requires special care. -Has specific dietary restrictions or requires medicine. -Has any behavioral struggles or triggers, and what I can do to help. -Which toys, activities, and furniture is their favorite. -Any other information regarding their preferences so I can provide the most relaxing and comfortable stay for your furry best friend. 💖
