“Gillian was awesome. she was so professional and friendly and treated our cats amazingly. she even disposed of a mouse in the basement for us. i felt very comfortable leaving our babies in her care for our 5 day trip. I loved seeing the photos and getting the report card after each visit. I'd definitely book with Gillian again!”


“I love that I don’t have to worry about my kitties when Colleen is caring for them. I know they are in such caring and trusting hands when we are away. She is excellent and I am so happy we can turn to her, especially on such short notice. She has been caring for our cats and we hope to be able to continue to turn to her when we need to be away.”


“Katrina did a great job keeping my cat happy and safe while I traveled! Thank you!”


“Gwendolyn was amazing with Fish and Chips. She sent me regular updates and spent a lot of quality time with them while I was away. Highly recommend.”


About: I have always been an avid dog lover, and have been blessed by the bond I’ve formed with my own dogs through the years. I love learning more about dog behavior and am constantly striving to learn how to be the best pet parent I can be. I have experience with puppies, reactive dogs, and senior dogs needing medication. I will treat your dog ad if they are my own: being loving, protective, and reinforcing training, if wanted. As long as we communicate, I’m sure I’ll be able to provide a wonderful respite for you and your pups. I currently WFH, making my schedule fairly flexible. I ensure that the pups in my care are getting their desired exercise needs. I will generally only be gone for a maximum of 4 hours. I have an unfenced yard away from any traffic. Whenever the dogs are outside, I’m close enough keep a watchful eye and ear out if they ever need support.

“Thanks so much for looking after our three cats! Shelly is a wonderful communicator and I felt very comfortable leaving our cats and our home in her care for drop in visits.”


About: Hi, I’m Lindsey! Over the past 25years, I’ve had the joy of caring for pets, and it’s been an incredibly rewarding experience. I believe pets are family, and finding the right person to look after them while you’re away is crucial. I take this responsibility seriously and approach every pet with the same love and care I give to my own. Caring is embedded in my nature and when I'm not loving on my pets or caring for others fur babies, you can find me working as a nurse. I'm currently the owner of a special needs dog and feel comfortable caring for those pets that need a little extra care. Ask me about my pet wedding service I offer! As a nurse, I have a flexible schedule that allows me the freedom to have days off with no work obligations so I can give my full attention to caring for your pet. I know that ensuring your pet has a safe environment with someone they trust is of utmost importance, so a meet and greet prior to confirming services is required. I tailor my approach based on the unique needs of each pet and their owner. When caring for pets in my home, I offer a safe and comfortable environment with ample space to play, opportunities to potty and protected sleep space. My pets are used to a structured environment, which allows them + visiting pets to settle into the new arrangement with ease. In your home, I focus on maintaining the familiar routines and surroundings that keep your pets comfortable. I follow any specific instructions you provide and adapt to your pet's habits and preferences, ensuring they feel secure and loved. My experience has equipped me with the skills to accommodate a variety of needs, whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, or providing extra attention and care. Overall, my goal is to provide seamless care for your pet so they feel safe, secure and calm while their owner is away. Daily updates with pics or videos will be sent to ensure the owner feels safe, secure and calm while they are away as well! Prior to your departure, a plan for emergencies will be discussed and I will ensure I have all necessary phone numbers and contact information.

About: I’ve looked after dogs and cats alike for several years now. I pride myself on ensuring that your furry family member is safe and well cared for while we’re out and about on a walk, or when you are away! My full-time job concludes at 3pm each weekday, so I am available to walk or look after your pet during afternoons (after 3) or evenings, or at any time during the day on weekends! I love to get out in the fresh air on long walks and have plenty of experience taking care of cats and dogs when their family is away, be it for a night or for a week! You know your pet and their needs best, so I work hard to ensure that your pet care requirements are constantly upheld, and that the quality of care you give your pet is maintained while they are with me. It is important to me to meet you and your pet first so we can discuss how I can best care for them!


“Thank you for taking such good care of our cats! This was our first experience with Rover and we could not have asked for more. Everything was done perfectly and we were able to enjoy our time away without worry. We will definitely be looking to book you again in the future!”


About: Hi!! I grew up with dogs, a pit lab and a yorkie, and I used to clean dog kennels and feed them at the pope humane animal shelter! And I recently a few months ago did a two week house sitting/ dog sitting job! I am a huge fan of dogs :) I’m a recent college student who has always just wanted to take care of people’s pets while at college, unfortunately it’s much more difficult up there, but now I’m home and I get the chance to see others pets more easily! It fits in super well currently, I’m available usually 24/7 just need to know at least a few days in advance! I make sure that I keep my eye on animals, especially puppies/kittens. I know they can be all over the place, I like to stick near them and make sure I have available numbers in case something were to go wrong.

About: We are an active, animal-loving family! When your dog stays with us, they will get beach and trail walks, playtime in our fenced yard, and lots of love and attention. We have taken care of our own dogs and cats for decades, and have both been around them since we were children. We also have a 7-year-old daughter who has been raised around dogs since she was born. She loves them and is gentle and kind. Our dog Selkie is very well socialized and gets along with every dog she meets. Through the years, we have cared for many dogs and cats and other animals belonging to family and friends. We have also had great relationships with dog sitters who cared for our own pups, and we know that it can be nerve-wracking to leave your pet in the care of others, but that it can also be a really fun and positive experience for them. We both work from home and live close to a great dog beach and many trails. We are always with our own dog, and our flexible schedules let us tend to any dog's needs as they arise. Our dog Selkie loves to have visitors. Safety and security are a priority, and we are careful about traffic, unknown dogs and other hazards. We live on a quiet dead-end street and our backyard is securely fenced. We work from home, so we can keep a close eye on the pups. Our own dog is a very playful and friendly 18-pound mystery doodle, is well accustomed to all dogs, and loves company. She is one year old and is spayed. Because we have a small child and a small dog, we can only host dogs that are known to be good with children and other dogs.

“Jessica was great. She accepted our request at the very last minute and travelled further outside of her area to check on our dog. While our dog refused to go outside for her, she was in constant contact and was very sweet to our super nervous, stubborn dog. We appreciated her stopping by!”


“Claire is reliable and always does a great job when watching my cat Samson. I can tell she cares and that she knows what she’s doing when it comes to cats. Thank you Claire!”


About: I have walked/house sat dogs since my freshman year of high school and now I’m going into my sophomore of college. I absolutely love dogs! I grew up watching friends and families dogs as well as walking them. College student home for the summer. I am loving, reliable sitter for home and pets. I have some extra free time on my hands and I love hanging out with dogs! I believe that offering plenty of affection and attention is very important to your dogs. I also strongly believe in following a pets routine such as walks,medication and so that they still feel comfortable in at home and at home even when the owners aren’t home! I like to send regular photos and updates so that you know your pet is safe and having a good time!

About: I work and live on a farm so am frequently in and out of the house throughout the day. I have one cat, so dogs must be good with cats/small animals. My dog, Pippin, loves to play and we go on multiple off leash walks throughout the day. I love animals and will love your pets like they are mine! My dog, Pippin, has separation anxiety so I understand how to comfort and care for dogs that get a little nervous without their owner. I worked in a veterinary clinic with dogs and cat. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sorts of sizes and ages and am relaxed and intuitive in possible stressful situations. I am very gentle with animals and believe positive reinforcement is the way to go to get the best results and to form a fun and trusting relationship. I am active and would love to take your high energy dogs out for a long run or hike in the area. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full-time, a mix of at home and away from the home. I have time to take walks in the morning before 7:30, around 3/4pm and in the evenings. I have a very friendly dog who loves to play and relax. I take him on hikes and walks daily. I also have a dog-savvy cat.


About: I have had dogs, cats, rabbit and even fish but taking care of others is different. I will give love and safety to your pets I am currently retired so i am able to fit into my schedule wheni am required to care for your pet. I also have transportation I give them love. I play with them, i tell them no when they do something wrong. Make sure they have plenty food and water

About: I owned and operated a full-service petsitting company for over 20 years, and wish to continue providing quality and compassionate care to new furry friends! Experienced with meds, injections, wound care, etc. Vet reference gladly provided. Bonded & insured. I look forward to caring for your pets and providing you peace of mind when you are away. Birds, cats, dogs, fish all welcome! Since my beloved Seymour passed away last month, I am now able to housesit and keep the occasional furry guest in my home. Dogs would get out for walks/yard time every few hours; cat box cleaned ditto. Feeding, play and light grooming throughout the day and evening as you specify. I work part-time in Camden, but am available AM, afternoons and PM. Typical visits prioritize potty needs, feeding/medicating and petting and play. Hanging out fun, too! I treat your pets as if they were my own. I let them set the parameters for play, touch and exercise. Bonding usually happens quickly!

“Brianna was great with my 2 dogs and cat. My dogs can be nervous but they warmed up to her right away.”



“I always feel confident when Amy takes care of our cats. She makes sure she knows what their food/litter needs are and then actually follows the guidelines we give. And she spends time with them too while we're gone. She recently also helped me give one of our cats medicine -- it went more smoothly than it does when my husband helps! She interacted with our cat calmly and thought ahead to make sure he would be comfortable and feel safe.”

Emma R.
“I've had the pleasure of working with Emma for several years, both professionally at Dance House Productions and personally as a fellow pet lover. Emma is incredibly responsible, prompt, and communicative — qualities that I truly value. She has a natural ability to stay on top of things, ensuring every task is handled with care and attention to detail. In our work with kids, Emma consistently brought a calming presence to the team, making her someone others could rely on in any situation. This same calm and patient demeanor translates wonderfully when she’s caring for animals. I’ve witnessed her dog and cat-sitting firsthand, and it's clear that she has a deep affection for animals and takes the responsibility seriously. Emma is not only great with pets, but she’s also very attuned to their needs, ensuring they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. If you’re looking for someone who is not only reliable but also a warm, caring, and communicative pet sitter, I highly recommend Emma.”
