“Great sitter! Pups were very happy! It was some time ago but just logged back on and noticed I didn’t leave a review. Will definitely use Gabrielle again.”


“Beth was wonderful. She is so sweet with my little cat and figured out right away how she likes to be pet. I really appreciated her sending pics and letting me know everything was ok. She went above and beyond in her care while I was gone and she is always very punctual and responsible. I’m very glad to have found Beth!!”


“Christina did an AMAZING job housesitting and watching our two fur children. She provided detailed information (via rover app, written notes left) and never hesitated to ask questions if she had concerns or additional questions about our dogs. She went above and beyond making sure our house was running smoothly while away for 11 days: she brought in our mail/packages, placed our garbage cans out for pickup. We will definitely use Christina again and highly recommend her!”


“Our original sitter canceled the day before our trip, and we were so relieved that Brittany was available last minute. She arranged a meet and greet the same day we reached out and started the booking the very next day. She took amazing care of our two dogs and two cats while we were away for three days and sent regular updates. We’re so grateful and will definitely book with her again!”


“Anna stayed with my pets over the 4th of July weekend. She did an amazing job! My quirky golden retriever and friendly cat loved her. Anna, kept in touch and was very easy to reach. She is such a kind person. I felt great leaving my special buddies with her. Nancy Deford”


“Fantastic! Scott was ann absolute lifesaver and helped me when I was In a crunch. He promptly responded to a last minute request . He toolk such good care of my pup Lily, who has separation anxiety. He walked Lily and made her feel comfortable and at ease. My pup was in great hands with Scott, who is an extremely flexible, reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Scott!!”


About: I've worked for a dog walking company, wrangled ferrets, and outsmarted wily cats. With nearly a decade of pet sitting experience I'm ready for just about anything your furry friend can throw at me. I'm adept at problem solving and can meet your pet where they need me to be. I have experience administering medication and coaxing the anxious and stubborn out of their shells. I am free most days in the morning and the afternoon if you need a walker quickly. My schedule is flexible and I am willing to work with clients to meet their needs. I will follow any instructions clients give for how much freedom they want their pets to have. I usually like to keep them in sight or in an enclosed area like a fenced in yard when not out on a walk. I like playing and keeping them entertained or sitting quietly together if they're tired. It mostly depends on the energy levels and temperament of each individual.

“Christina did a great job watching my dogs. We had a good meeting before I booked with her and I could tell right away how comfortable my 2dogs were with her. She texted me when she got to my house, sent pictures and texted again the next morning early to let me know the dogs had breakfast and had been outside. She confirmed both our meetings before I booked and confirmed the dog sitting as well which I really appreciated. I will definately use Christina again.”


“He did an amazing job! Left the home in great condition and took really good care of our pets while we were out of the country for 12 days. Good communication. Will book again.”


“Jillian was amazing! She was so attentive and loving with our pups. They absolutely loved her. We even had some last minute changes to our plans and Jillian was more than happy to accommodate. She gave us such peace of mind knowing our pups were in great hands! We will definitely be booking her again in the future.”


About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with a Bachelor's degree in Animal Sciences and hands-on experience caring for pets in both shelter and clinical settings. I started my journey working at a local animal shelter, where I cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and temperaments. Now, I work at an animal hospital, where I spend my days caring for boarded cats and dogs. I’m comfortable administering medications and handling special feeding protocols. I also understand that not every pet is easygoing, and that’s okay! I’m comfortable working with pets who may be reactive, anxious, or need a little extra patience and care to feel safe and secure. I work from 7:45 AM to 1:30 PM most days and 12:00 PM to 7:00 PM on Fridays, so I’m available for pet sitting, walks, and visits outside of those hours. Weekend hours may change depending on my work schedule for the week. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet care needs! When caring for your pets in your home, I’ll follow any instructions you provide for feeding, medication, and exercise to ensure they’re getting the care they’re accustomed to. Whether it’s a daily walk, playtime, or snuggles on the couch, I make sure to create a comfortable and safe environment for your pet. I’m also always mindful of the spaces I am in and am more than happy to clean up any messes made! If there are any special needs or behavioral concerns, I’m happy to work with them to ensure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you're away.

About: I have experience dog walking and dog sitting, most importantly making pets feel comfortable and loved in their temporary new home! I have also fostered kittens until they were ready to be adopted! I am currently at home studying for my graduate school entrance exam, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend playing with your pup! I am available to dog sit any day of the week. I have no other pets at home so your pet will receive all my love and attention! I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks.

About: With over a decade of personal pet care experience, many of my friends, family, and family friends depend on and put their trust in me to take care of their fur babies! I am in school online, so I am always home! This means I can care for & keep your pups and kitties company 24/7. I am usually available. At my home, pets have free roam of the downstairs area, as well as access to a big fenced in yard. There is plenty of room to wiggle, wag, and play! In a clients home, I follow their instructions & routines specific to their pet. I make sure they are safe, comfortable, and happy! My pet care is attentive, including feeding, many walks, play time, and any other needs the pet may have.

“I couldn’t be happier with the experience! Our dog walker, Kraig, was absolutely fantastic—super attentive to our pup, Rusty’s needs and incredibly reliable. Communication was top-notch; we always felt in the loop with updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins. It’s clear that Kraig genuinely cares and goes the extra mile. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to sit & walk their dog! Thanks Again, Kraig!”


“Dottie loved her time with Jamie! Jamie took Dottie on a walk and spent some time giving her lots of play and attention. Jamie is a great communicator who was punctual and detailed with her updates. She took wonderful care of our girl!”


About: I have volunteered in many city and suburb shelters walking dogs of all sizes and providing cat enrichment. I have also grown up with dogs and have two cats of my own. All animals deserve the best life and I will treat your pet as my own aka spoiled!! I am flexible because I work from home, so feel free to reach out about any specific times and I can almost always make it work! I will give animals lots of attention, snuggles, play time, or whatever they prefer! I will make sure they feel taken care of and loved because I know I get sad about that when I am out of town away from my kitties!

“Tiffany was great with my animals! She’s smart, kind and reliable. She went above and beyond just walking and feeding. I’d highly recommend her and plan to book with her again very soon.”


“Ethan, watched my golden retriever and cat for a few nights while I was out of town. He did a great job. The pets were happy and calm when I got home. Ethan responded right away and kept in touch with me during my trip.”
