“Angelica helped us out in a last minute need- she was amazing and took great care of our pups! Thanks again!!”


“I cannot say enough good things about Anna! When my original travel plans fell through at the last minute, and I was suddenly without a sitter, Anna was an absolute lifesaver. She responded quickly through Rover, arranged a meet-and-greet almost immediately, and took detailed notes on each of my cats’ care routines. One of my boys requires oral medication, which can be tricky, but Anna handled it like a pro. Even more impressive—my most skittish cat, who usually disappears whenever someone new enters the house, actually came out during one of Anna’s visits. That’s never happened before. Throughout my trip, Anna was attentive, compassionate, and extremely thorough. I got regular updates, photos, and little notes that showed she was truly paying attention to each cat’s personality and needs. I highly recommend Anna to any pet parent, especially if you have cats who need medication or are shy, picky, or overly particular (like mine!). I returned to a calm, clean house and five very content kitties. Thank you, Anna!”


“Anne is the best!! Our cats were mad to see us when we came home. Clearly they have bonded with her during our time away. She is our favorite go-to Rover. Handles our needy and special needs cat perfectly. And the invisible one too! Joey the elusive.”


“Dawn is seriously amazing!!! I was so skeptical to have someone come in our home while we were gone so long, however Dawn eased all of my worries. Dawn made sure to give me daily updates on my pet, made sure he had everything he needed, and even brought in some Amazon packages for us. We will be using Dawn again for sure!!”


“I’m so happy to have Elaine take care of my pets! She goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and I can tell by the picture she sends me. I also love her detailed reports she leaves at the end of her visit. I will definitely be having Elaine to take care of my cats again when I leave town.”


“Nalisha took amazing care of Luna:) Luna was so happy when I returned from vacation and Nalisha did great with communication. Will definitely book again!”


“Jennifer is excellent! This is our second time using her services for our senior cat, and she was caring and loving of our sweet boy. She even checked on him when there was bad storm, and Mo thrived under her care.”


“Cheryl is amazing! She took great care of our pups. She was quick to respond and come over for a meet and greet. You can tell she loves dogs and cares. We will definitely be a return client. Thanks Cheryl! ❤️”


“If you get the chance to book Donna consider yourself lucky! She is one of the kindest and most generous sitters we have ever come across. She watched my two cats twice now. She went above and beyond to make sure my pets were okay. There was a night I was concerned about one of the cats because we didn’t see him for a while on the cat cameras. She headed straight over to ease our concerns, even though it was it was an unplanned visit. She is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone.”


“Troy and his wife were so warm and welcoming. They kept me in the loop with pics of my cat and regular updates on how he was adjusting with them. Lovely people!”


“Amazing and super reliable!!”


About: You don't have to worry about your pet when they spend time with me. We will go for walks, play fetch, and get plenty of cuddle time. Just tell me what you need done, how you like your pet taken care of, and I'll get it done. I have plenty of experience with last minute requests, so you can have one less thing to worry about when emergencies happen! I am willing and able to walk or run your dog in order to provide the interaction and exercise that promotes healthy pets. Bring on those energetic puppies or dogs, as well as the laid back wanderers. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I enjoy the time I get to spend with your furry baby's 🥰 I'm currently working remote position, so I can spend all day with your furry baby's, they will not be left alone, so no need to worry about it. I live in house with plenty of space and big back yard, there is a lot of space for a walk around neighborhood as well.

About: Hi, I'm Emily! I’m a full-time pet sitter with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, temperaments, and personalities. I grew up raising a number of animals including horses, dogs, cats, reptiles and more! Today, I currently share my home with a wonderful sweet loving Bull Terrier named Boris. Your fur babies will have my undivided attention and love, whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays in your home. I treat all pets like family and take time to build their trust to form strong, lasting bonds. I absolutely love capturing cute and silly photos of my favorite moments with pets, so if you prefer receiving photo updates while you're away there will be no shortage! I am committed to providing a comfortable, fun, safe and loving environment for your little (or big) ones. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members soon! I am a full-time sitter, which means your fur babies will have my undivided attention! I can provide long walks, potty breaks, unlimited playtime and belly rubs. You can trust that your pet will never be bored and will be well attended to in my care! While in my care, I will provide personalized care to your loved ones according to their specific needs. Whatever their usual routines may be-meal times, walks, daily exercise, lots of playtime, regular potty breaks (as often as needed), and any medications or special needs they may have- I can accommodate! During stays at your home, I will maintain the cleanliness of your space just as if it were my own. I strive to provide the utmost experience and build a lasting connection with your furry family members!

“My dogs loved Tori right away. She was very professional and friendly. I felt confident about leaving my dogs in her care. I would recommend Tori and will hire her again.”


About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dog breeds, and cats. I’ve always had one or more furry companions in my life since I was 6 years old. Currently the mom of two dogs! Weekends I am 100% available! My Monday-Friday schedule can vary based on the case load at my job, evenings are ideal but I am very flexible! I try my best to make sure your pets needs are met! Whether it be long walks, enriching activities, meals/treats, specific routines, or just some extra snuggles!

About: Hi, my name is Sarah! Some things about me are that I've cared for a large variety of different animals, including but not limited to Dogs, Cats, Rodents and other Small Mammals, Lizards, Snakes, and some large animals. I am a proud pet parent of two leopard geckos, two gerbils, three mourning geckos, a variety of fish, and care for the family dog, but ownership is not my only qualification for pet sitting. Additional to taking classes on animal husbandry and handling, I am also trained as a Veterinary Assistant, and am happy to administer any medications you pet(s) has/have, along with accommodating any special needs, or accommodations to keep your pet(s) comfortable while you are away. I will happily pet sit for Dogs, Cats, and other pets. I am currently working part-time, and do not work nights, meaning I can pet sit any day of the week, and can also do drop in visits if desired. Animals in my care will be treated with the same compassion and care as my own pets. Dogs will go on walks, or be let into the backyard, or both depending on owner preference, and other animals will be cared for in accordance to owner preferences. Plenty of playtime, attention, and cuddles will be given to your pet(s). I will give daily/nightly updates on your animal(s). If an animal shows any signs of need for veterinary care, I will contact you immediately.

“Great service again by Julia. We have a multi-step feeding process with our 3 dogs and she managed to get them all fed - doesn’t always happen for us. Definitely hire Julia!”


About: From my earliest memories, our home was filled with multiple cats, dogs, birds, and even a horse. Today, my heart belongs to my gentle giant, Jinx, a 20lb Maine Coon who's taught me so much about the joy of feline companionship. I can't express how excited I am to get to know your precious cats, to learn their quirks and personalities, and to ensure they feel cherished and cared for during my visits. My boyfriend and I quit our corporate jobs to start our own home based business. This gives me plenty of flexibility to fit your schedule. My service is tailored to your cat's needs. I adhere to your feeding guidelines, providing fresh food and water as instructed, and clean kitty litter. Additionally, I'm available for plant watering and mail collection if needed.
