“Ivy was our first sitter we have used and she was so great! She made me feel like the dogs received so much love and attention while we were away. She also lives super close and that made both of our lives so much easier! I would book her again in a heartbeat. 😊”

About: I’ve had dogs almost my whole life. I am able to administer medication, give baths, take walks and give all the belly rubs needed. My goal one day is to foster dogs and cats, caring for your fur baby will give me all the experience I need to care for other animals until I have the space to do it. I just love them all! I generally work from home with a very lenient schedule. My kids are all grown and out of the house leaving me with a lot of free time. I just have one dog and one cat, but I would love to love more!! I do not have a fenced yard so I would be walking your dog for potty breaks. I do have a crate I can use in home if needed. For doggy day care we would schedule a meet and greet beforehand. I am available almost anytime for walks and feeding if necessary. For cats I am available for feeding and litter box cleaning.
About: I’ve grown up in a home filled with animals including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. So caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. Dogs especially hold a special place in my heart. My own dog is truly my best friend, and I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for yours. I will treat your dog with the same love, attention, and respect that I give my own. Whether your pup needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, or a consistent routine, I’m happy to accommodate their specific needs. I also have reliable transportation, so getting to and from your home is never an issue. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my top priority! 🐾💛 I have plenty of time on my hands to play and care for your pets. My schedule is also very flexible. I am open for anything! I have a loving chocolate lab puppy in my home and I am also very gentle with any other dogs! I love being around them
“Lindsey took such good care of our fur babies and feathered ladies. I have 2 cats, 2 German Shepherds, and 13 chickens and she gave them lots of love and attention while we were gone. We got lots of photos and check ins which put my family at ease! Will definitely be reaching out to Lindsey in the future when we want to go on vacation. 10/10! 💕”

“Elton stayed at our home to care for our dog—who typically doesn’t enjoy change, new people, or other animals—and our cat. This was my first time ever booking a sitter, and I was admittedly nervous. Elton exceeded every expectation. The animals were clearly well loved, and the house looked wonderful when we returned. He was incredibly supportive throughout the week, sending photos and even keeping a daily journal so we always knew how things were going. I’ve already referred him to two close friends who plan to book him soon. And as a delightful bonus, he’s an amazing baker—he left a homemade blueberry lemon babka for us to come home to. I would recommend him without hesitation and will absolutely request him again.”

“Ally was a great dog sitter. She took great care of Bernard and was very communicative. She send constant updates and photos of Bernard which made it easier for us to leave him behind knowing that he was well taken care of.”

“Rylie was very responsive and very attentive to our pups. She also sent great photos. She has great experience with her own dogs and with her work at a doggy day care and was very comfortable when a last minute issue came up and knew which issues she should contact us about.”

“Love all the pictures and updates Huda gives. It makes me feel secure that my fur babies are loved and appreciated when I am gone. I will use Huda every time I need to be gone from home.”

About: Growing up I haven't had the opportunity to stay in one place for too long, moved from house to house, I've gotten the opportunity to hang with some amazing animals throughout my life and I've gotten very lucky. I've taken care of multiple litters of cats and seen them go to some amazing homes. I've also had the opportunity to raise 2 dogs from the time they were just little puppies! I've also grown up around reptiles and birds! I can assure you I'm experienced and your pets will be my number one priority. Some info about me I am autistic and fairly bad at socializing so if I seem off I'm just anxious around new people and learning how to communicate properly please be patient with me, I'm trying my best to find employment this helps me out so much with bills so please consider booking with me I'm always greatful. I'm free 24/7 anytime for how long I'm needed I'm happy to work, I take my job seriously, my entire goal is to spend my time looking after the pets under my care. Pets deserve love and attention, playing with toys and regularly being allowed outside of cleaning a litter box for cats, we feed our dogs twice a day once in morning and once at night. Treats can be nice in moderation but not in large amounts... Cuddling is also an amazing activity if your pets enjoy that, they are like children and deserve plenty of love! I am an autistic individual who is incredibly social, I learn quickly and the money helps me with important bills I frequently am short on rent so please consider booking with me.
“Angela was great! The dogs seemed happy and well cared for. She sent pictures while we were gone and was responsive to texts. The dishwasher was ran and the towels were washed. The house looked great.”

“Gabrielle did a great job taking care of my old lab, Duke and our house while we were out of town. She contacted me regularly throughout the entire process of hiring her and while she was staying with my fur-baby. I highly recommend her and will call her back for future services if needed.”


“Greyson did an amazing job caring for our whole family, which is a lot! Very communicative and sent very helpful updates. Everyone loved Greyson, even my grumpy old man cat. Will definitely book again!”

“Diana did a great job with our two active dogs. She went above and beyond taking care of our home during her stay and sent us updates so we knew everything was going well. We would definitely book with her again!”

“Fabulous Fabulous Fabulous with our sweet little Oakleigh. She made us feel very comfortable leaving for the weekend. We’ve never we used Rover before and we will for sure contact Beth again. I know that Beth will always be our go to sitter.”

“The house was left very neat and she was good at communicating with us. Our cats hid throughout much of her stay, but that's their normal behavior with new people and not a reflection on Jaicyn. She actually seemed like a caring and nice person and we're hoping to have her again.”
About: I’ve had animals most of my life, and was the regular sitter for many friend and neighborhood pets. My sister’s three cats are very shy with sitters, but have been responding extremely well to my sitting. I work full-time, but am often remote and can be flexible. I would love to add some pet care in the mornings or evenings - even lunchtime and afternoon if needed! I understand that they aren’t there for my enjoyment! I don’t need to do anything more than what they need and want. If they want to play or snuggle, that’s a bonus!
“Molly was amazing watching our two pups while we were out of town! She sent pictures everyday and we could see that they were well cared for. Very responsive with communications and even surprised us with a little picture of the pups! Highly recommend Molly to anyone looking for an animal lover.”
“Jessi not only took awesome care of our pup while we were away but also took great care of our home. She sent prompt updates and great photos. We came back home to a very happy pup. Would definitely be using Jessi again for future sittings!”

“Darriell went above and beyond when watching our dog and cat. The dog got skittish about walking while we were on vacation and Darriell was patient, communicative, and compassionate. She sent lots of pictures and I felt confident our animals were in good hands. Would definitely book again!”

Jennifer was great. She spent day and nights at my home with my cat Lily. When I returned a week later Lily was happy and my house was spotless. Jennifer also left me the sweetest thank you card. I would highly recommend Jennifer to sit or you. She loves animals and they love her. She also sent me multiple pictures and I loved that.
