“Emily took such amazing care of our cat while we were away! She was easily reachable, communicative, timely and most importantly incredibly caring and loving to our baby. We will 100% be using Emily for whenever we are in need of a pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Gigi!”
“Marie is wonderful and wonderful to work with. She loves the animals; they love her. She’s dependable and communicative and every bit as good a fur mom as I am for my dogs and cat.”
About: I am an animal lover. I have had animals my entire life ( cats, dogs, snakes, tarantulas, lizards, fish, turtles, and chinchillas). I understand the responsibility it takes to care for all animals . I am very patient and show compassion to the needs of all animals. I am currently the owner of 3 cats and a dog. I find being around animals very relaxing. I enjoy playing with them and look forward to making a connection with the animal so that it feels safe and joyful. I also have a great understanding to the different temperaments of all animals. I would love for the owner and animal to feel that their in good hands at all times. I will follow all the rules and wishes that the owner feels necessary for their animals to feel safe. I am currently working as a school teacher for 21 years. I am available 3:30pm- 10:00pm on weekdays and on the weekend I am available all weekend. Available majority of the summer as well. I have 2 cats that are house bound. I have an Alaskan Klee Kai that is allowed to be out with supervision. We are not fenced in.
About: I treat every dog like my own, offering personalized care, reliable communication, and plenty of love, play, and attention. Safety, trust, and tail wags come first! Pet care fits perfectly into my flexible lifestyle—I'm available any time of day to give your pup the attention, care, and love they truly deserve. I give all pets I care for plenty of playtime indoors and in my yard, plus walks in parks or hikes—based on the owner’s comfort level.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, I have a 4 year old golden retriever who I love more than anything! I’m such a dog lover, and I’ve been part of Rover for about 3 years where I’ve met so many furry friends and their awesome owners! I work full time from home so I’m able to step out during the day for a quick walk or am available before or after work hours. I’ll always respect your pets boundaries as they settle into a new environment. I can take your dog on a leashed walk, carry a portable water bowl and clean up after them!
“Kassidy did a wonderful job! She was on time and she played with my pups. She made them feel comfortable and they were very tired and relaxed when she left at night. I’d recommend her to anyone and I will definitely be using her again. She is fantastic.”
About: I worked at a pet store for 2 years where I took care of all kinds of different animals (birds, ferrets, reptiles, bunnies, etc.). I worked at a doggy daycare for a year and I have also been dog sitting and boarding for the past 2 years. I also have lived with dogs my whole life. I’m currently in college commuting only one day a week on Wednesdays until may 7th, so I am unavailable to do walks or pick up after 2 I care for pets in the way that the owner tells me works best for their pets. I don’t deviate from their schedule and care.
“Diana took great care of our dog Cherry while we were away for a week of vacation. I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about our dog getting fed and walked. I highly recommend Diana!”
“Candice was terrific with both of our dogs — they have opposite personalities and they clearly both warmed up to her quickly. She was communicative, reliable, capable and loving, and we won’t hesitate to use her again!”
“I reached out just a few days before we needed a drop in and not only did she quickly respond that she was available, she came the same day to meet the boys so that we would be comfortable. She communicated ahead of the visit to check in, sent awesome pictures with the dogs and took care of everything exactly how I specified. Our dogs have to stay separated right now and I was very anxious about that being managed in our tiny home but I did not need to be! We will definitely be hiring her again. Only downside is that she doesn’t do overnights!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I have dealt with kittens/puppies, adults and seniors. Gave meds, washed, groomed and trained them. Large dogs and pitbulls are my favorites. I also had a house rabbit for 9 years. My pets had long happy lives I have a part time job, so my schedule is flexible. With enough lead time, I can swap my shift and be available whenever I am needed. I can care for pets in their own home. The pets are happier and less stressed when they are at home. Pets should say home whenever possible.

“I'm a firm believer that dogs recognize genuinely good people. My Cookie absolutely loves Nicole! I appreciate that she loves my large breed dog just as any other breed. She's flexible, reliable and just so pleasant to interact with. Petsitting at Nicole's was much better than taking my baby to a kennel. Cookie was able to lounge in a comfortable and relaxing setting. If you're on the fence about leaving your pet with someone, please reach out to Nicole.”
Tyler K.
“Tyler does a great job with our dog Zuko! When we go out to work, he spends the day with him, taking him on walks, going to the park, or going on hikes. He even taught Zuko how to lie down! Zuko is a very high-energy dog, but Tyler is able to meet him where he is at and tucker him out by the end of the day. Tyler is an amazing and very responsible caretaker for our dog, and Zuko is so happy every time he sees him.”
