“Anne was great! Whinny was well taken care of. We got pictures of whinny everyday at Anne's check ins it was so nice and very comforting to know whinny was safe and happy without us. I would highly recommend her to family and friends and would definitely use her again to take care of whinny.”

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since / was 25. Taking care of an animal is giving more color to life and making it happier. I'm always available after 3pm. I always have my day off on Friday and Saturday, totally free. I don't have children and I love animals. I like to play with the animal, I always take a toy, I like to give affection, I am always affectionate and kind to the pets.
“Amy was wonderful. She was affectionate and you could tell that she loved animals. She sent pictures of my puppy when she got there and while she was playing . I would recommend Amy and I will use her again.”
About: I have always been surrounded by different household animals. Dogs, cats, crabs, fish. I do not currently have the resources to have my own furry friend but have carved time to begin walking and sitting to still have an outlet for pet connection. I am eager to get into a conversation and discuss some options. Chat soon :) I am flexible. Looking to build my work schedule around walking and sitting. I would like to walk dogs early in the morning 5/6 am but flexible to walk at night as well When walking dogs, I am aware of soundings to keep them safe. I will keep them to the route planned and expected to ensure habits follow as normal.
“Nicole is the best!!! We were a little nervous to try Rover for the first time with our two cats, one of which requires daily medication. She was so responsive and loving for our kitties!!! She made the entire experience stress free. We can’t wait to work with her again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats and still love to have them in my life. I am experienced with all sizes of dogs and comfortable with cats of all ages. I have experience in raising neonatal kittens through medication administration to older pets. I am active and enjoy walking and would love to have your furry friend be my companion. I'm also happy to sit with a friendly cat for some pets and snuggles. My pets are my furry children and are spoiled and I would love to be able to help spoil yours when you aren't around. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to come early in the morning to later at night to help make sure your pet is happy. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me the freedom to be available to help provide care for pets and reassure owners. I love spending time with pets, getting to know their personalities, interact with their owners, and provide reassurance that your pet is in good hands. I have fostered cats from a few days old through older cats with medical needs. I grew up with dogs and am comfortable with all sizes. I have experience walking dogs of all sizes, providing medication including injections, and handling animals that may be wary of strangers.
About: I have been taking care of animals for over 15 years. Growing up, we always had cats, dogs, reptiles, amphibians and other creatures. I love animals of all kinds so being able to care for more would be a treat! Whether it’s long walks, playtime, snuggles, or simply making sure your pets feel safe and comfortable, I treat every pet like they’re my own. What sets me apart: Experience with both energetic puppies and gentle seniors Patience, reliability, and strong attention to detail Daily updates with photos/videos so you always know how your furry friend is doing I know how important it is to have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to give your pets not only care but also companionship, keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I my senior dog passed away at 15 in 2023, I currently have 2 hamsters, a turtle, a frog, a crested gecko and two kitties so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animal types. I work full time so can dedicate evenings and weekends to your pets needs. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, ensuring pets always get consistent love, attention, and companionship. When caring for pets, safety always comes first. I follow each pet’s routine closely, respect house rules, provide a secure environment, and build trust through patience, reliability, and gentle care.
“Alexis is super helpful and reliable! She was available on short notice and sends pictures and updates every time she comes and leaves my house. She’s also very flexible which is great. I would definitely recommend using her!”

Anne was great! Whinny was well taken care of. We got pictures of whinny everyday at Anne's check ins it was so nice and very comforting to know whinny was safe and happy without us. I would highly recommend her to family and friends and would definitely use her again to take care of whinny.
Olivia is a wonderful pet sitter and we couldn't be happier! We have a dog and two cats. Our dog can be weary and reactive with new people, especially when we are away for an extended period of time. Olivia's patience with her to earn her trust was very much appreciated. Olivia is also very friendly and great with communication. We felt very much at ease knowing she was taking good care of our pets and taking note of how they are doing and letting us know if they weren't eating all of their food so we can keep an eye on them. She also made sure everyone took their medications at each meal. Looking forward to having her watch them again!
Riley was very helpful with our cats and understanding their personalities. She kept in touch and let us know about their daily activities to ensure everything was good with both cats. She provided feedback on their habits and was super helpful in answering our questions.
i have 100% confidence and trust in chelsea and john. they're the best! they really go above and beyond to ensure that our cat is well taken care of while we're away. the level of communication they provide is exceptional. basically, we couldn't ask for more. we're already repeat customers of chelsea/john and will continue to be. thank you so much!!
Grace was absolutely wonderful! She was able to do a check-in for my 4 cats on very short notice, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. She was communicative, reliable, and made sure everyone was happy and well taken care of while I was away. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her hands. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!
