This is the first time I had someone stay in my home to care for Chica. Alexys was great. She came by the house the day before we were leaving for a meet and greet. She arrived on time, stayed one night overnight, washed the sheets and made the bed. That was above and beyond. And Chica was happy. I would definitely use Alexys again and recommend her to anyone need pet sitting/walking services.

About: My Bernese mountain dog is my whole world. I never imagined I would have a 100 pound gentle giant but here we are- and I truly love it! I recently left my decade-long career in executive recruiting to create more balance and joy in my life and I couldn’t be happier. Being home more and adding even more dog love into my days has been incredibly fulfilling. Dog walking and pet care are now my full time focus which allows me to be very flexible and reliable for my clients. Walking, dropping in, sitting …they all genuinely bring happiness to my day :) I have experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I love working with my clients on any training they are working on and I’m patient and more than understanding of any quirks, special needs, and unique personalities the animals may have! Every animal is different, and I make it a priority to tailor care to what makes ur pup most comfortable and happy! I’ll make sure your dog gets exactly what they need during each visit- whether it’s a brisk walk, playtime, or endless belly rubs. But no matter what, everyone gets LOTS of loving while in my care :) I also love taking pictures of all my pups which my clients tend to appreciate :) I give lots of detailed updates so you know how your pup is doing and can be at ease! —- We only allow one doggie visitor at a time! (Plus our loving berner). We love to have scar and our doggie visitors on the sofa and even in the bed if they like that :) and we have a great fenced in yard! My husband lives with us too so dogs that are afraid of men wouldn’t be a fit for us. He is very nice I promise ;) My gentle giant Scarlet is glued to my side all day! My husband and I have both worked from home her whole life so she is quite the Velcro dog. We walk 2 or 3 times a day usually and we love to go to the park! My whole day involves Scarlet in the best way :) We have a fenced in yard with sliding door access so the dogs can go in and out as they please. The fence is the while vinyl type so it’s solid with no gaps to escape through. My 3 year old bernese is more of a lay down kind of gal but she doesnt mind playing a little with other dogs- she just gets tired! I love snuggles and kisses, and I give lots of pets!

Nicole sent pictures & videos to keep our anxiety at bay while we traveled this summer, we had no worries about Fifi or our home! It’s evident that Fifi was comfortable with Nicole as she (Fifi) has been searching for Nicole since we returned home. Thank you so much Nicole, for giving us peace of mind while we were away!! ❤️

Jess was fantastic! We had plans to board our dog while we went on vacation but it fell through last minute and we were stuck without reliable care. We downloaded Rover, did some research, and found Jess who was INCREDIBLY responsive and sensitive to our needs. She was able to offer in-home pet sitting for us on short notice which we were so grateful for. We were still able to go on our trip for a few days and we felt like our sweet girl was in great hands with Jess. She kept our home tidy, followed all of our directions, and even helped us meet some training goals! We highly recommend working with Jess and will be keeping in touch with her for future care!

About: Ever since I was little I have loved animals, so much so that when I was 12 I convinced my mother to let me get a dog, despite her fears of them. I raised, trained (haphazardly 😅), and groomed my dog from a puppy to an adult till she died of heart worms. After, I adopted my sister’s dog when she no longer wanted her. Grooming and taking care of her till I went off to college taught me a lot about caring for an older dog. In between dogs and even now I help my friends with their cats, feeding, grooming, and watching over them when their owners are out of town. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets and I am ready to tackle whatever yours may throw at me! I work part time mornings throughout the week so after I get off I have all the time in the world to take care of your pets. I can devote a great deal of time to walking or sitting. The more time you need the more time I get to spend with your cute fur babies making it a win/win. Typically I like to feed pets around every 3-5 hours, but I am perfectly capable of adhering to any sort of schedule or rules you may have regarding feeding times. I am extremely flexible so if there are any specifics when it comes to the care of your pet I will have little to no problem sticking to your routine.

Nicole was amazing! My dog has a very hard time with me leaving, and she was so thrilled to see Nicole and distracted playing with her that she hardly noticed me being gone. They did all of Darby’s favorite things, and I was always updated. I was able to enjoy my trip with having peace that my girl was taken good care of. Will definitely be booking again anytime I am away!

We have two large, anxious dogs and finding a sitter we trust can be difficult. Greg is a total exception. Communication was consistent and reassuring, updates and photos throughout without us even having to ask. Greg genuinely knew how to handle big, nervous breeds. Calm, patient, no rushing, our dogs were relaxed by the end of the stay and it put our minds at ease.

I needed a sitter with short notice and David was able and willing to come meet my 3 dogs within hours of contacting him. He was kind and gentle with my boys and knew how to approach one of them who is fearful. He listened carefully to my instructions and asked when something wasn’t clear. I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with him when we met the same day he stayed overnight. He stayed longer when we were going to be home later which I appreciated. When we got back, he left a kind note and some chocolates for us. I would hire David again!

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and have always helped out taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs. When it comes to taking full care of other people’s pets I’ve done a couple of pet sitting jobs in the past year or so. While home from college I have free time almost everyday for most of the day! While I may need to go home to check on my own pets or family I can usually spend most of the day with your pets. I’m a bit of a night owl so morning can be rough but I thrive in the late morning and afternoon! I can’t have pets come over to my house because of my cats, but when at your house I can always be there for your animal! Whether they are playing or just want company while lounging at home!

About: i’ve been around dogs my whole life, and have experience, caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering, basic medication’s, or providing companionship, I understand the importance of making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away.

I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and routine to ensure they receive personalized care. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to providing a positive experience for both pets in their owners. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your dog is getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. As a student, I am not working a full-time job and I manage my time carefully and have availability throughout the week to provide dependable pet care. My daily routine involves going on walks during the week anyway. spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so dog walks and pet visits fit naturally into my routine. I make sure to schedule my responsibilities in a way that allows me to give petty attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I currently have one dog right now named Gracie! Caring for her includes feeding, walking, playtime, and just making sure she receives plenty of attention and affection. when caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the pets established routine and follow all instructions provided by the owner. I maintain feeding, walking, and medication schedules, keep the home, clean and secure, and provide updates so owners know their pets are doing well. My goal is to make pets, feel comfortable and cared for while giving owners peace of mind. I like to care for my clients pets, just as I would want my pets cared for!
