“Daniela was great to work with. She was very communicative and someone we were comfortable with letting into our home/taking care of our dog. We’ll definitely use her again!”

“Stefanie was amazing! Always kept me updated and was so communicative. My kitty cat loved her and I would absolutely recommend her in the future! An amazing sitter.”

“Chris was great with my puppy! Very attentive to both my needs and my puppy’s needs during his visits. Great communication and photos to ease my nerves. I’m would highly recommend him for any of your pets needs!!”

“Nina is so great! She is so quick to respond and was able to accommodate a very last minute meet and greet and drop in services for our pup! She is very communicative, sends great updates, and our pup loved her. Will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

“Hanaya did a great job taking care of our cat for the week - showing up on time each day, sending regular pictures, and communicating well with us. She's a very dependable service provider.”


“Elvia was great with Ophelia! Came to do a meet and greet before, and was very flexible when our plans changed at the last minute, which we appreciated. We will definitely be booking dog sitting with Elvia again in the future!”

“Extremely impressed with Maria taking care of my cat. My cat is newly rescued and very scared of people. While I was away my cat found some places I didn't even know were possible to hide that were probably not very safe for a cat. Maria went out of her way to get my cat out, and prevent her from going back. By the end of the week my cat was even opening up a bit towards her.”

About: I’ve been working with animals for 6 years and have experience with all sizes, breeds, and personalities - from bullies and hounds to chihuahuas and cats. I was part of an agricultural program in high school and spent over a year working in a dog care facility. I have personal experience with Guinea Pigs, Rabbits, Gerbils, and Chinchillas. I truly love all animals and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I currently work mornings and have school at night twice a week, so I will be available all afternoons and most evenings and totally available Fridays and Sundays. I have a cat that doesn’t not get along with dogs just yet, so I if able(depending on client) use the backyard, go on walks, take to the park.
About: Hi! My name is Adriana and I have been a pet caregiver for about 12 years now. I had a dog of my own, but she crossed the rainbow bridge a couple years ago. Since then I have wanted to spread my love for animals to other families in need. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or keeping up with special routines, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for like they’re my own. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and playful. I’ll send updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. From energetic pups to cuddly couch companions, I’d love to give your furry friend the attention they deserve! I always find time to hangout with my fur babies. At the moment I have a pretty flexible schedule and will adapt myself to your needs as much as possible! Before caring for any animal I make sure to know every detail of the pet I am with. Their personality, needs, and what they like to do. Safety is always my number one so I make sure to double check that the door is closed and the fences are locked!
“Alexandra did an amazing job with our two kitties while we went on vacation. They were loved and well cared for, and she played a LOT with them! We definitely would recommend her!”

“Natasha went above and beyond when taking care of Roscoe. He is a bit of a fearful dog, but he took right away to Natasha and even rolled over for a belly rub, which he never ever has done with a stranger before. She must have some sort of special touch. She is responsible, keeps in constant contact, followed all of my instructions, and Roscoe obviously loved her. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Katie was amazing all around. She did everything I asked and took great care of my cats. I was anxious about leaving them for 6 days but she made me comfortable and allowed me not to worry during my vacation.”

“Michelle is incredibly helpful and friendly. She checked in on my cats during an emergency without hesitation, she immediately said she would go and make sure they were okay. She’s very sweet, and you can absolutely trust her for drop-in visits with your cats or dogs.”

About: My family and I have owned multiple dogs and I have dog sat for others dozens of times. I have been told that I am very good with Dogs. I am a former human resources administrator, I am not working currently. I suffer from chronic migraines and I need an opportunity with a flexible schedule and I love dogs and have been told that I am very good with Dogs. Recently I had to care for my nieces dog and he is very friendly with most humans but is reactive to other dogs. Taking him for walks around the house required patience and attention if another dog presented themselves.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Kamila! As overly-anxious cat parents, Kamila gave us so much peace of mind with her consistency, thorough updates and ADORABLE pix. Bonus points to her for keeping up with our cat’s routine and going above and beyond to ensure kitty satisfaction. If you’re not booking Kamila, you’re missing out!!”

“Cassidy was great, she was able to help us out last minute! She found our baby who locked themselves in a room playing and made sure they were taken care of!”


About: I grew up caring for a Maltese and a cat and now own two Belgian Malinois mixes. I’m experienced with high-energy dogs, daily walks, mental stimulation, and maintaining consistent routines. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I’m reliable about schedules, walks, feeding times, and consistent daily care. I treat every pet as my own, with a strong focus on safety, supervision, and comfort. I carefully follow all care instructions, maintain a clean and secure environment, respect your home, and will provide updates for peace of mind.

Evelina was absolutely amazing with my Marley while I was away on a week-long cruise. From the start, she was professional, kind, and very communicative, which gave me real peace of mind. She sent regular updates and photos, and it was clear Marley was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. When I got back, Marley was relaxed, healthy, and clearly loved his time with her. Evelina truly treated him like her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend Evelina to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover helper.

Anna took exceptional care of my two babies, and followed all of my instructions! She was polite and checked in with me on any questions about the babies and gave me a heads-up if she might be stopping by early. I came home to a perfect and clean apartment, and two very happy and well-fed babies. Highly recommend!

Paige is incredible! She is very reliable, flexible, and also very responsive. She is great with my two very shy kitties and has even gotten them to trust her enough to let her pet them (which is not a small feat). I trust her completely with my cats and I am always assured that they will be well cared for. I’ve booked Paige’s services for almost a year now and plan to keep booking her whenever she is available to help.

Margaret did an amazing job taking care of my cats. They took a liking to her quickly and she was very attentive to their needs. They received lots of love and play time, and I got some great photos in her updates. I’d be happy to have her for drop ins again!
