“Josie is the best!!! She is always very attentive and sends me a lot of details about my dog and their walks. My dog can be pretty reactive so it’s great to have someone so reliable! (:”


“Ashley was very kind, caring and attentive! I have two holland lop buns and she was so enthusiastic about watching them. Her love for animals shines bright like a diamond. She had great communication and we will be using her for any pet sitting needs we have in the future.”


“Amorena was great with my anxious, senior dog. She responded promptly and sent regular updates while I was away - including pictures! I really appreciated her professionalism and how caring and understanding she was of my dog’s needs.”


“Karina is great! She has been very loving and responsive to both my pups! They are very good dogs but have been through a very high stress move (2200miles in 3 days) and new home, so having to adapt to new environs and Karina has been helping them while I have been working. She has been fantastic with not only my dogs getting walks and play time but also loving while I am working a new job. She helps me be able to relax knowing my dogs are well attended to and loved. She keeps me updated and has helped with any anxiety my dogs have experienced with the move. Would highly recommend Karina for your loved ones care!!”


About: With over 8 years of experience managing a busy veterinary emergency hospital, I have a strong background in animal health, behavior, & emergency care. In addition, I've been active in the dog community for years by competing in AKC Scentwork trials & Conformation (dog shows). I'm confident handling pets with a wide variety of needs, from routine care, to administering medications & supporting those with special needs. I'm currently a stay at home mom to two little girls, who have been raised around dogs and have watched me train and compete with them. They've learned to be respectful and gentle with animals. We also share our home with our friendly 8 year old, 15 pound Poodle, who holds multiple dog sport titles. Being home full time gives me great flexibility to provide attentive and consistent care, whether that means drop in visits, walks, hikes, hosting pets in our home, grooming, transporting your pet, and more. We own our home in a quiet, family friendly neighborhood with a secure, fully fenced backyard. Our fence and doors always remain locked, as we take every precaution to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for visiting pets. As a precaution, we never use the front door. Instead, we go through our garage, allowing us to close the garage door behind us before opening any doors. This extra barrier helps ensure that your pet is always safely contained. Whether your pet loves structured play or relaxing company, I tailor care to fit their unique needs. You can expect frequent updates and photos-just let me know how often you'd like to hear from me. I know how important peace of mind is when you're away. I truly can't wait to meet your furry friend and give them the same care and attention I'd want for my own! As a stay-at-home mom, I'm available throughout the day and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of interaction, playtime, and care to your pet. From managing a veterinary hospital to training and competing with my own dogs, pet care is second nature in our home & life. Walks and cuddle sessions are all part of the routine here! Your pet's safety is my absolute top priority. I take multiple precautions to ensure a secure environment at all times. Our home has a fully fenced backyard with a locked gate and dogs are always supervised when outside. As a precaution, we never use the front door. Instead, we go through our garage, allowing us to close the garage door behind us before opening any doors. This extra barrier helps ensure that your pet is always safely contained. I'm also experienced in handling pets with medical needs or special care requirements.

About: Hi there! My name is Jelina, but I go by Daisy. I've been caring for animals my whole life—everything from horses and chickens to guinea pigs, cats, and dogs. No matter the size or species, I’ve loved every one of them! Animals hold a special place in my heart, and taking care of them is truly one of my favorite things to do. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and figuring out what makes them happiest—whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or just some quiet company. I'd be honored to care for your furry (or feathered!) friend like one of my own! I currently work a part-time job 4–5 days a week, with a mix of morning and evening shifts. My schedule can vary, but I always do my best to be flexible! If you're interested in booking with me, just send me a message with the dates and times you’re looking for, and we’ll see if it’s a good match. I’m happy to work with you to find something that works for both of us and your furry friend! Animals have always held a special place in my heart—I've loved and cared for them for as long as I can remember. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just quiet company, I truly enjoy every moment spent with them. When I care for your pets, I treat them just like my own—with lots of love, patience, and attention. I understand how important it is to trust the person looking after your furry family, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’d be honored to care for your pets and hope I can be someone you and your animals can count on!

“Paige did a great job taking care of our two cats. They have completely different personalities and eating styles. Getting one of them, Charlie, to eat is a challenge. Paige was persistent, kept us updated, and was successful. We appreciate Paige's fine care of them and will use her in the future.”


About: Respectful and neat college student who enjoys quiet and loves peaceful walks, and nights in cuddling with cats and dogs. I have experience with high maintenance and elderly dogs and cats. I work during the day, but am usually off at 4 to do an evening walk! Your pet and their needs are a priority for me. I am good at following directions and will make sure your pets have everything they need. At this time I don’t have space for boarding. I can follow instructions with administering meds and/or specific food.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for around 8 years now, I absolutely love it. I have sat for many dogs who have special diets, medication needs, elderly dogs, anxious dogs, and puppies! I’m currently working part time, so I will be able to accommodate to the scheduling needed for taking care of your animals. I’m also available on weekends. I will care for your animal the exact way I care for my own, like their family. I’ve had dogs my whole life, I have been told I have a sense with dogs, they all love me.

About: I’ve house sat and taken care of dogs and cats for many years. I love going on long walks with my dogs and giving them the attention they deserve. I would love to take care of your animals and give them plenty of attention. I am a stay at home mom and can care for your animal the whole time I’m sitting them. I have a 5 year old silver lab and she’s very friendly with other dogs. I have a doggie door and a partial fenced yard. The majority of my yard is unfenced. My dog is very friendly and would love the company.

“Very grateful , she helped me while I was away on a trip she fed them took them out and that same night late at night I had an emergency which she was able to attend to .

“From the first meeting my cat who is so shy warmed up in under 10 minutes. She walked my sweet husky. And I am so grateful for her. And her ability to make pets so comfortable”


About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12 yrs old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I've done some dog training helping them with anxiety, crate, and behavioral issues. And all of them turned out to be a success. I believe the more active they are burning there energy the more likely they won't have any separation issues or potty accidents while the owner is away. I'm currently not doing any other job except for Rover. I'll be able to be there for your puppy/dog as much as needed especially with the holidays. I have a open big yard surrounded by orchards and 2 friendly medium dogs that will gladly play with your dog/s if needed. I also have a crate for the dogs if needed. My dogs are trained not to run off/runway but I'll make sure due to the new environment for your dog/s to keep them on a leash outside and go for plenty of walks. I'm also open to watching your pets in your own home, I know with some dogs, of how important it is to stay somewhere familiar when your away. I'll do everything within my power to make sure your dog/s feel comfortable, healthy, and happy while keeping the house clean.

“Jennifer T. was reliable, well organized, punctual and able to commit and communicate about the schedule from start to finish and we recommend her very highly! Jennifer was concerned about our dog's welfare and getting the information she needed to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for during their time together. We will definitely look to book her again when the need arises.”
