“Laila was awesome! I am VERY particular with who I would leave the care to for my Chesapeake Bay Retrievers... as all of us pet owners are. So often I pass on fun places to go because I don't want to kennel my dogs. I found Laila to be communicative to let me know how the dogs were doing; i.e. sending me pics and texts periodically. I came home to a neat house and exactly the way I left it and to happy content dogs. I honestly think the dogs missed her when they realized she was gone and "Mom" was home. I cannot recommend her enough... and I know that will probably increase her unavailability for me when I need her, but she gets a 5 star plus plus plus from me... and again I am super particular with who I let walk or watch my dogs. Thank you Laila!”


“Tina was amazing staying with my dogs! She’s like an elderly dog whisperer and dealt with an unexpected snow storm and potty accidents with love and care. My dogs were so happy, would book again anytime!”


“Tara was an absolute pleasure to work with. I needed a dog sitter last minute after a cancellation, this was my first time using Rover and I was honestly a little nervous with the process. It made our trip much more enjoyable knowing that our dog was not only able to stay in our home but in such great care with Tara. I felt very comfortable with Tara staying in our home, we returned to a very clean house and she even moved packages that had been delivered inside. When we arrived at home, our dog Skookum was laying on the guest bed so I could tell he enjoyed Tara’s company. We received many photographs from different trails around town, so we know our active dog was in good hands.”


About: My family has had dogs on and off since I was a child. I’ve also been dog sitting for friends and family over the past 5 years-in many capacities: day visits, overnight, single and multiple dogs, different age ranges, breeds and dog walking. I don’t have a lot of cat sitting experience but have friends/family who have cats. I work from home 2-3 days a week, so I’m available more flexible on those days. Weekends and weeknights, I’m a bit more flexible to care for pets overnight or provide drop-ins throughout the day. I have no pets in my house, so your pet(s), will get my full attention. I don’t have a fenced in back yard but am able to use lines if needed, I also have space to kennel your pet if needed. My house is a split level, so I have stairs to get to either floor of the house. My parents do have dogs (in a different household), so if you pets don’t get along with other dogs please let me know.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for years for friends and family. I also have experience taking care of my families chickens. I have worked with therapy dogs and cared for them as part of my job. I am currently working full time while finishing my bachelor's and love the outdoors. Let's chat and see jf our schedules would work out! Please ask any questions you have! Communicating with the clients and what they do to care for their pets is so important to me. I want pets to feel well loved and cared for.


About: I am 44 years old, have 3 kids, 3 grandchildren and love animals. I have 1 dog and 3 outside cats. I would love to add other dogs to play with and teach everyday. I own my house and have ample running around space and like taking walks and going swimming with the pups. I enjoy all breeds of dogs and don't discriminate against size or age. Please help me to find some friends to get to know and play with. I am currently laid off from work and can give your animals all the attention that they would need and deserve. I also have a minivan, so transporting multiple animals isn’t a problem. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do leash in the yard and go to a spot down the road from my house that has a fenced in area for them to run with no other animals around.

“Grace was exceptional!! She gave both our animals love and care with enthusiasm! She followed all of our directions and was willing to go beyond expectations. I will definitely ask for Grace again. Thank you.”


About: I have grown up my entire life with all different breeds of dogs. I also use to work at a kennel. I’m a huge dog lover. I have a pit mix who’s 7 and have had her since a puppy, a AKC German shorthair pointer who’s 4 I rescued from their original owner almost 3 years ago and a AKC German Shorthair 2 years old and a 1 year old German shorthair. Daisy and I compete in FastCAT and I plan to add in Dock Jumping to the mix. I have a dog watching and walking Facebook page called Alpha Dog Watching and Walking Services I’m a stay at home mom so I am available almost any times for care. I’m looking to make side money. Dogs are my happiness. I take my dogs to the dog park almost daily and for walks. I will walk your dogs. Play with them in your home. Dog sit. Ect.

“Ally was great! She met with us ahead of the sitting to meet the dogs and get acquainted, because it was their first time having a sitter overnight. Ally was also very responsive to communication, whenever we asked for updates. Would definitely recommend/rebook!”


About: I have extensive experience working with pets, including caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. My responsibilities have included feeding, grooming, and ensuring their overall well-being. I currently work in my professional with animals on the daily. Through this hands-on experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and the specific needs of different pet species. I want to provide a safe, clean and comfortable environment for your pet to thrive!! I am currently in school and working part time although I find plenty of time to spend with fluffy friends throughout my day and week! My days don’t start early in the morning and I’m always home before night-time. I am able to travel to your residence to provide the most comfortable care for your animals where they feel at home! I’m a regular exerciser which allows me to give your animal a brisk walk and lots of playtime!

About: Our home was always a home with pets. Cats, dogs, guinea pigs, and rabbits. Love and play and teaching them as they taught us. #1 is LOVE. I have 2 cats 14 years old and 2 dogs, one big and one small, looking for friends of all ages to play with. I am good with the young and old, our dog Popcorn is 14 and doing great! I look forward to caring for your beloved while you are away. Hi, I work Mondays and Tues. 9am till 2pm I have lots of time to care for your animals in my home. I also love taking them to dog parks and on walks. I have a large fenced in yard for your pet to wander around and play. Also, if they need time alone to relax and rest, I have a large in closed porch. I would be willing to sit at your house or mine. I do have play times with the dog/ cats. I like walking the dogs and going to dog parks, with your permission.

About: I have cared for dogs for years, growing up with two small dogs. Helping my parents feed, walk, and care for them taught me responsibility and the joy of companionship. I provide each dog with the attention they need, whether through playtime, walks, or cuddling. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I tailor my care to ensure they feel loved and safe while their owners are away. I'm currently a college student, which means I have plenty of time to care for your pup. I'm available anytime on weekends and selectively available on weekdays. I care for pets in their homes by following their established routines, monitoring their health, and providing plenty of exercise and stimulation. I also ensure a safe environment, maintain cleanliness, and keep owners updated with regular communication.

Aryn V.
“Aryn has watched our golden several times over the last 7 months. And she has been so amazing to work with! From flexibility with dropping off and bringing our dog back to our home and drop the gear off, to truly making our dog a member of her family. We wouldn't choose anyone else to watch her. She is accommodating, friendly and most of all dependable with keeping our dog on a routine and trained. We have had her watch our dog for a day while having contractors over, all the way to a week at a time while we were on our honeymoon. And our dog loves her and is truly excited every time she sees her. If that doesn't show the level of care that Aryn has for animals, then I don't know what is.”
