“Phoebe really did an outstanding job taking care of our very shy cat. Nugget really opened up to her right away. Very conscientious and caring. Would definitely use her again!”
“Mackenzie attended to our 2 cats while we were gone for the week on vacation. She was very reliable & responsive to our cats needs. Communication was excellent, updating us with pictures and texts.”
“Nina took great care of our two senior kitties while we were traveling abroad; she even went to the post office to pick up the pet meds that didn’t arrive on time prior to our departure. We returned home to two relaxed, happy cats. Your pets will be well looked after!”
“Kathleen was great! We were out of town for 8 days and needed someone to feed our cat daily. Kathleen dropped in twice a day, and our cat Bear made a new friend! Bear loves being brushed, as that's the quickest way to her heart, and Kathleen made sure Bear got the complete brush works during each visit. We will definitely look in to booking her for future and drop ins.”
“Communicative, cares for my fur family, and truly went above and beyond. My first time having a pet sitter I didn't already know before hand and would book Emily again in a heartbeat if I need the services.”
About: I have been dog and cat sitting for six years, and have had in home pets my whole life! I have experience with senior pets and am happy to help with any mobility needs. I am open to caring for puppies and kittens, but they must be potty trained. I work 8am-4pm and can take a lunch break to let pets out as needed! Happy to spend the night with a pet, or just pop for a bathroom break! I am not able to care for pets at my house at this time, however I am happy to spend the night somewhere else if need be (after being able to visit with the pet parents present). I am also happy to walk or play with pets to get them some exercise!
“Chanine was able to support a late minute request for a sitter, and even do a meet and greet in that short time. Brutus seemed well taken care of at the end of both days after the drop in visit.”
“Brilliant, Alicia made sure to update me on every visit and sent me pictures of my cat every time. When she noticed something odd, she immediately notified me about the issue; she goes above and beyond. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to properly care for their pets while they’re away.”
About: I've never owned a dog but I've always been around family dogs and have given basic dog care over the years. Including walking and dog sitting. I'm currently not working so I have plenty of time to attend to your pets needs. My schedule is very flexible and I'm sure we could find a fit. I currently only offer in client home sitting. I will follow guidelines set by the pet parents in regards to walks and feeding times, etc.
About: I've taken care of many different dog breeds from small to big. I have worked with dogs from the puppy stage to a senior. I have experience with giving medication. I am always thorough with making sure your pet will have my undivided attention to have their needs met. I am an online college student so my schedule is open early mornings until about 6pm. I am available to walk or do drop in visits for your pet(s) any day except Wednesday and Thursday. I will always be vigilant with your pets. I will make sure they are where they are allowed to be and make sure to respect your home.
About: I started house sitting in high school for close family friends/neighbors of ours. The first family that trusted me had 2 birds, a turtle, 2 older cats, a dog, and 2 fish. Caring for the cats involved a good deal of specificity, especially with the timeliness of their routines. I also have walked and cared for numerous dogs through babysitting & nannying, whether it be overnight jobs or just for a few hours, and I understand the attention to detail it takes to make a pet and a pet parent feel happy and comfortable. My dog tore his ACL on the beach with me while I was in college, I carried him up and down my townhouse stairs for months. He also had allergies with a variety of treatments including soap that had to sit in a lather for 5-15 minutes every day (he did not like baths, especially when it was cold out), special diet, and pills. At times, I was giving him a few pills each morning. He was very smart, and adventurous enough to be a little mischievous. He knew when there was a pill in food, he could smell it, or have watched me prepare it differently. It got to the point that we had a position to get into, I would place a pill as far back on his tongue then have to hold his chin up. Sometimes he would pretend to swallow it, then go spit it elsewhere when he thought I wasn’t looking. He taught me to appreciate a dog’s individuality and sense of wit. I imagine pet personalities come in as wide a variety as humans, and I believe understanding, attentiveness, and playfulness are the standard for pet care. I work 8:30-5 (ish) 4 days per week, and I am happy to stop by before and after work and/or during lunch if reasonable, some days I get longer lunch breaks :) I am flexible on the weekends. I treat my pets as family, and I have witnessed my family and friends care for pets as if they are a child. On days I couldn’t bring my dog along, I trusted the people watching him to do the same, and maybe even add a little extra love for missing his family. I do think routines and caretaking look different per pet and household, but however works best for pet parents and their pets, they can expect I will be engaged, responsible, loving, and kind to their fur babies. I do also have a fenced in backyard, and live with two dogs if that option is valued.

“Genna did great with my two cats! I sent a last-minute request and she accepted right away. She was helpful and sent lots of pictures while she had my kitties. I would definitely recommend Genna to anyone looking for good, communicative pet care!”
About: My husband and I have raised kittens and puppies for the past 20+ years. Our children all have had jobs pet sitting for multiple people.

Between myself and the 5 other family members in my home, we can figure out a way to accommodate the needs for your pet. Plus most of us drive so we can provide transport or easily come to you:) We have a large yard for your pet to play, and a great neighborhood with side walks to take for walks. We love playing with animals and cuddles, but we also have enough space in our home if you’d like your pet more secluded.

Second, enrichment is everything--and also most of the fun for all involved.”

“As a sitter/walker on Rover myself, I can be very picky about who I trust my pups with. Gracia certainly makes that list! She is fabulous with my two small pups anytime she looks after them. She is responsible, reliable, and punctual. With my older chihuahua, Gracia is always so sweet and gentle. With my puppy rat terrier, she is playful and energetic. I can always rest easy when I know my dogs are in Gracia’s care, she consistently is able to provide the perfect care for each individual pup. I highly recommend Gracia for all your pet needs, she truly has been a lifesaver for me!”

“Julie is one of the most considerate and compassionate people i know. Her love and care for animals and people exceeds the norm. She is responsible and thoughtful and goes the extra mile for everyone she has any commitment to with no exception. She is very resourceful and heart centered. I have watched her take every consideration for her own pets and the pets of others. If there is an animal in need that crosses Julies path she is taking action. I highly reccomend Julie as an outstanding human being and as someone who holds reverence for animals. Thank you”
