“Andrew is the best! He was very attentive to our cats and send photos daily. We weren’t worried at all! Communication was wonderful and no issues at all. Would highly recommend him.”
“Literally the only person outside of family that we trust to take care of our three dogs. This trip, our water pump went out, so she had to put up with the plumber as well as the dogs, but she handled it professionally and quickly.”
About: Animals and nature have been my greatest passion for as long as I can remember. I’ve been exposed to, and well acquainted to a variety of animals, including fish, rodents, reptiles, dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and even a baby squirrel rescue! I am also a volunteer dog walker at my local shelter, which is my therapy and brings me great happiness. I have two dogs of my own that I’ve raised since they were eight weeks old. They are my entire world. I am knowledgeable in basic dog training and obedience, and very observant and understanding of animal behavior. Nothing brings me more joy and happiness in life than being surrounded by the love and purity of animals. I currently have open availability. I have a very flexible and adaptable schedule and I am open to what works best for you and your pets needs. I am with my dogs all day everyday. They get all of my love and attention. I constantly monitor for potential hazards and act accordingly in order to limit any risks. Cleanliness and order is my main priority as I value a clean and tidy home. I have fresh water out all day and I feed them twice a day. My dogs get a specialized high end kibble which I supplement with fresh meat, organ, eggs, fruits, veggies, goats milk, coconut oil, bone broth, salmon oil, turmeric and a daily vitamin. I wash my dogs as needed or every two weeks. I brush their teeth, fur, and clip their nails weekly as well. I only have high quality chew bones and other toys available that don’t pose a risk as my dogs are heavy chewers.
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. Many different kinds, including dogs, cats, ferrets, rats, etc. I will treat your pet with love and kindness. I have a job where I make my own schedule. If you decide to board your pet with me, I will be on premises at all times. For boarding, I have a decent size fenced in back yard. I do have a 7 year old husky that has gone to daycare. He's been around a lot of different dogs. If your dog needs to be crated, I can do that as well. I am available to come feed your animal in your home. I can let them out and walk them if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of lots of pets over the years. I enjoy being around animals and showing them love because they do the same for us! I have a genuine love for taking care of things if I can help it and I’m going to school to even become a nurse. I also started a house plant hobby. Taking care of things is just in my blood. I’m available more in the evenings . My schedule is flexible but inconsistent because I’m part time at my jobs but we can discuss availability if you book me to take care of your pet(s)! I have a fenced in back yard and just one cat. I’m able to keep them separated if needed. I also have my own home and it’s a smoke free one! I’m very clean and clean my home daily. I let my cat on the couches so yours will be allowed the same if they are not dirty of course.
“Julia was such a great dog sitter for my dog. He’s used to me being around 24/7 so I’m always worried about leaving him home alone. She took great care of him and put up with all his weird quirks and routines.”
“Robert was an outstanding sitter. Our dog seemed to love him. He spent lots of time with her, walked her, and sent us many photos. He also took good care of our home — despite a complete power outage in our neighborhood for 24 of the 48 hours he was at our home. When the ice in the freezer melted and leaked from the freezer, he took the initiative to clean it up and make sure it didn’t become a bigger problem damaging the wood floors.”

“First time using rover and messaged with a couple people before booking Charity. Wasn’t sure I’d like using this for my pup after speaking with other sitters but Charity was fantastic! Pretty sure my pup was disappointed when I walked in the door after my trip instead of her. Very responsive, accommodating, and professional. Won’t use anyone else but her. She could easily be charging double what she is and it would be worth it.”

Conner S.
“I went away for a weekend and left my 1 year old husky/aussie mix with Conner. I had never been away from my dog (Nash) this long and was nervous to say the least as I know he can be a handful. Conner could not have done a better job making sure he got tons of exercise and love. She even got him a couple toys while I was gone. Its safe to say Nash really enjoyed his staycation with Conner and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter/Walker.”
