“Whenever I think of somebody who loves & cares for pets, Jamie would be one of the first people who'd come to mind. She is incredibly passionate about pets and has spent much of her time with furry friends as someone who's both a cat & dog owner & from my time spent generally hanging out with Jamie, she puts a lot of heart & care into not only her own pets, but pets of mine & other friends of ours while treating them the same as if they were her own! Her way of handling cats/dogs & amazing patience of making any animal feel comfortable given the time to spend with even the most energetic or anxious of pets. With her experience, Jamie is someone who is right for pet sitting or pet walking.”

About: Hello my name is Sterlin, i am a dedicated dog sitter who is very organized and safe. I have volunteered at animal shelter's and watched friend's pet while they have been away. I am a very active individual who takes dog sitting as a first priority. Walking your pet and getting my workout in all in one. I Love it! I live in a home with a fenced in yard (half an acre) So much room to run and play. Water is always provided and plenty of treats.

About: I LOVE animals of all types, I've had animals all my life. I don't consider them animals really they are part of my family. I have taken care of friends pets while they are on vacation and they have been bathed and groomed them. So they are fresh upon the owners return. I live in small home with small open yard. I currently have no animals since they past away. Pets I have experience caring for: Dogs, cats, birds. I Love what I do. I'm currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. I'm available for boarding on weekdays, and weekends before 2:00pm. I'm available for pick ups-drop off. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client's home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment for them.

“Sent pictures, daily updates and exceeded my expectations and felt confident leaving my dog in her care. Very professional”


About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 10. Friends and family have relied on me to watch their pets for them. I also have had many of my own. I have a dog of my own that I care for and I am home Monday-sunday so I'm free all week to play and go for walks. I have a dog to keep your dog company. We will go for many walks, and lots of playtime if they want to of course.


“Once again Diana has helped sooo much in our quest for dogsitting services as we complete our multi-move until our hone is ready. Harley cones back revived, rejuvenated and as of today actually now knows the “drop it” command thanks to Diana. I had never had a sitter with their own dog but i can say i will actuakly look for it in the future because i now see the benefit. I would not hesitate to leave my pet in her hands as she is friendly, flexible and extremely pet knowledgeable! Who can ask for more. I also love her pet pics! I just hope we settle close enough to be able to have her sit more often.”


About: I’ve had interesting experiences with pets of my own, including birds, dogs, hamsters, and friendly cats. Experienced in self-training of dogs as well as birds. After school (Mon-fri 7AM to 3PM) I am home all day, available to care for pets for a majority of my time. Overnight care is fine as well I live in a good neighborhood with well trained and leashed dogs. Some friendly outdoor pet cats as well. A good aware community that checks on each other. Many different walking routes as well for dogs who enjoy long and short walks.

“Jason has cared for my beagle for 2 extended stays now and he is returned happy and calm. Jason follows all instructions and provides my dog with plenty of walks and exercise in his large yard … my dog comes home very sleepy. I feel secure that my pup is being well taken care of and recommend him highly.”


“I have used Jada to pet sit for me outside of Rover on several occasions and am happy to recommend her! She is very reliable and trusted. Jada always keeps the house neat and stays in communication. My pup absolutely adores her.”

“Leaving Tarrega with Joanne over the weekend was the best decision. She was so accommodating to my 6 month old puppy as she acclimated him with different surroundings while I was away. She made sure he was happy and comfortable in her house. She sent me pictures to reassure me he was okay. Joanne was so sweet. I’ll definitely leave Tarrega with her for future stays.”


“I highly recommend Cydney for anyone in need of a caring and experienced dog sitter. Over the weekend, she took care of my furry friend, Otis, and I couldn't be happier with the level of care he received. Not only did Cydney provide amazing care for Otis, but she also took him to several dog-friendly locations where he could run, play, and explore. Otis had a great time socializing with other dogs and meeting new people, all thanks to Cydney's expert guidance and attention. Overall, I'm very impressed with the level of service provided by Cydney. She clearly has a passion for dogs and a gift for making them feel comfortable and happy. I would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and dependable dog sitter. Thank you, Cydney, for taking such great care of Otis!”


“Hasan was the best! I was really in a bind and he came in and saved me immediately or my vacation would have been ruined. He provided daily communication with pictures and videos! i could tell that my dog had been well cared for & loved! I would definitely recommend his care for your pet sitting needs. Hasan & his partner go above & beyond!”


“Andrew stayed with my dog for a week. He stayed in my house which was great so my dog who hasn’t been away from us in 3 years wouldn’t have to leave his home. Andrew did a great job and we came back to a happy and healthy dog. My little guy had an eye infection when we were away and needed eye drops put in 3 times a day and Andrew had no issues putting them in which was a great relief. I will definitely hire Andrew again when we travel next”

“Stephanie is an amazing and kind person who loves animals very much. She is very trust worthy and I have known her for a very long time. She has always had animals and is very caring of her own as well as others pets. She cares for my animals every time she comes over and cuddles and loves them as if they were her own.”


“Ashlee took very good care of our Teddy. She gave us daily updates with photos. She even went above and beyond and gave him a bath and pedicure. It was the first time we left him with anyone, and he seemed happy and well cared for!”


“Andre is so sweet and loving with my precious baby.. He really loves all animals and takes great care of them.. I would trust him anytime!”

“Allison was wonderful! I think our pup really enjoyed staying there and we got lots of pics. He was well taken care of and we would definitely recommend her!!”


“Thank you, Tyler, for your care and attention to my babies. Gryffin and Zuzu had a wonderful time with you. Your home and your property are beautiful and exactly what they needed. I luv the pictures and updates you sent throughout the visit and your luv of animals and attention to their care shows in every way! Again, thank you, I truly appreciate you 🤩”


“Tony was great. He took wonderful care of our dogs (both are Great Pyrenees) and was flexible with our schedule. Our dogs went to Tony happy and they came home happy; a clear sign everything went well. Thanks again Tony, we appreciate your sitting our dogs!”


“Blanca was absolutely amazing! She made sure to always stay in touch and send us pictures! She was so patient with our boys who are very hyper and have anxiety. We are so thankful for her! I 10/10 recommend blanca for anyone who needs dog sitting ?”
