“Saemi came over a couple of times while I was out all day and made sure my two dogs were taken care of. They are completely opposite—one big and super excited, and one small and timid—and she was able to adapt to each of their needs at once. I have boarded with Saemi before and I know I can be away from my pets without worry when they are with her! Thanks Saemi!”
“She took perfect care of our baby. She actually got him to stay in the room with her which is a HUGE deal for our very anxious kitty. Highly recommended and will be requesting her again.”
“Paul has a great demeanor with dogs and puts them at ease. He is very responsible and we felt completely confident having him walk our 2 little dogs. They were happy to see him and trotted right out after the first meeting.”
“Grace followed our instructions perfectly and kept us well updated. She is a delightful person and we’re so glad we found her to keep our fur baby safe and happy. Will definitely call on her again!”
“Joy is amazing! She was prompt and followed instructions perfectly. I knew she had my Papaya's best interest top of mind. Her updates always made my day because I could tell he was very comfortable with her and he knew she was taking good care of her 😸”
About: What started as regularly pet sitting an incredible pup named Disco for my friend during work travel, has grown into a passion for pet care and community. I understand that training your dog is not only beneficial for the owner, but helps keep your pup safe too. Building trust and a strong relationship with your dog is an honor and there is no other love that can compare. Your dog is not just a pet, but a part of your family and they deserve to be treated as such. Just like with human kids, I would engage and talk with your pup on walks and trips because they would want you to! The more you genuinely interact with a dog, the more that dog will trust you. While I specialize in cats, I love dogs to pieces and the bigger the baby, the more hugs I can deliver! I currently work part time at a pet food store and am used to interacting with dogs all day. The more notice I have for visits and care, the better. Important!: I do not have a car and use an escooter to get around. If there is a place you'd prefer me park that scooter around your home, please include that info. I will not transport your animal on that scooter for safety reasons but am willing to walk to local parks and dog runs to exercise your animal. For emergencies I am willling to call a rideshare. If your cat is trained for harness/backpack trips, I am very willing to take them out! If your pup lives within a mile of a dog wash, I'm happy to bathe them for you. I understand that as a caregiver to animals, that person should respect that animal's boundaries. If a pup/cat wants to cuddle and play immediately, I will happily do so. If a dog is more cautious, I will do my best to earn the trust needed at that pup's own pace. I use positive reinforcement for training (and keeping up your own training) while gently discouraging unwanted behavior. I am patient and mindful especially for any dog/cat with disabilities. I am a quiet and low-key person which cats and shy dogs tend to appreciate but can also play and engage with high energy animals too!
“It was my first time booking with Alicia and using Rover, and was a wonderful sitter! She was on time and followed instructions thoroughly! She was great with my 2 kittens and played with them lots. Alicia also asked for feedback after the visit, which I really appreciated. Looking forward to booking her again next time!”
About: I have years of experience with both dogs and cats - both raising them and caring for them. Every pet has their own unique personality and needs, and I’ll do whatever it takes to make sure they’re safe, happy, and taken care of. I’m a graduate student with very a very flexible schedule, and I’m usually able to accommodate last minute bookings. I’m also an ex-college athlete who loves staying active, so if your pup is extra energetic or a larger breed, I’m happy to book long walks and make sure they get their much needed exercise. Over the summer I work from home with super flexible hours. I’m able to stop by anytime for as long as needed, go for walks, play etc. I’m usually able to accommodate last minute bookings as well. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routines closely: mealtimes, playtime, litter or potty breaks, and any special instructions. I’m mindful of each animal’s personality and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their space. I always leave the home clean and secure, and I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and check-ins so you can feel at ease while you’re away
“Our favorite cat sitter, as always! We’ve booked her so many times, and she is consistently outstanding. Our cats absolutely love her, and thanks to her care, we’re able to travel and visit family without worry. Always reliable and highly professional, she takes wonderful care of our cats and keeps our home tidy, including thorough litter box cleaning. She has truly been a lifesaver for us. We can’t thank her enough. A million thanks!!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job taking care of my two boys! The reports and photos were terrific and my cats seemed very happy. She also kept everything clean and tidy, came on time, and was easy to communicate with. I will look forward to her taking care of them again soon!”
“Mike was great sitter for my outdoor stray cat. Taking care of a stray cat is tricky because of unpredictable schedules but Mike was accommodating, flexible, and very responsive. Thank you so much Mike!”
“Shelby was amazing! She was very patient with my older dog and treated both of my babies with so much love and care. Looking forward to having her watch my doggies again in the future!”
“I'm a very happy repeat client of April's! She's great with my cat and always sends super cute pictures. I can always trust that my kitty will be well taken care of while I'm away. :)”
About: Hello! I currently have a 3 year old Lhasa Apso mix named Tofu. We are currently working with her on her separation anxiety. I understand that it is important for the pet parents to trust their care taker. I will prioritize building a trusting relationship with both pets and pet parents to ensure that both are comfortable and satisfied. I will tailor a personalized experience for your furry babies! My little one may join walks however, I will ensure that your furry baby is comfortable with this first. My little Tofu has also gone through fundamentals class and we’ve personally taught her commands. She’s energetic and gets along with other furry friends! Here’s some savings for you! “LAVONC32258” I’m currently working in the morning and have plenty of time to care for furry friends at night. I’m available between 6pm and midnight during the week. I currently live in a pet friendly building. The neighborhood is also welcoming to pets. There are lots of pet parents that walk their dogs in the area.

“Sonia was amazing and my dog loves her! She’s very dependable, great at providing updates and made me feel safe and secure about leaving my dog at home while traveling. I will definitely be using her services again!”

Dean B.
“Dean is extremely knowledgeable about animals! He has cared for both dogs and cats that get spoiled by the best diet and treats and lots of enrichment. He also has experience with elderly dogs who require specific medication/diets/attention which to me is so valuable in a pet sitter since I have an elderly dog myself. I would absolutely recommend Dean to watch any of my animals.”

Mike was great! We were leaving our puppy in her crate at home for the first time for a night out. So she needed a check in to make sure she was chill. Mike came over and hung with her and her big sis for an hour and shared some great photos that let me know all was well!
Anita is amazing! Super professional and caring, and she goes above and beyond to make sure my cat is happy. She even sent me the cutest photos for every visit, which always brighten my day. My cat is usually very shy, but she’s managed to win him over, and now they get along so well. I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter - highly recommended!!
Saemi came over a couple of times while I was out all day and made sure my two dogs were taken care of. They are completely opposite—one big and super excited, and one small and timid—and she was able to adapt to each of their needs at once.

Grace is wonderful and I highly recommend her! She has been helpful with two last minute bookings and my dog loved spending time with her (the photos she sent showed how at ease he was). She was also patient when we ran into some issues with logistics. I appreciate her responsiveness, professionalism, and thoughtfulness. I would book with her again!
I’m so grateful for the amazing care Amanda provided for my cat during the drop-in visit. She stayed for 1 hour and 47 minutes—even though it was only supposed to be a 60 minute visit! That really shows how much she cares. She made sure my cat was fed, had clean water, cleaned the litter box, and spent quality time playing and comforting her. I received thoughtful updates and cute photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and truly dedicated pet sitter!
So thankful we found Yesenia to care for our cat who has a chronic infection requiring oral meds twice a day. She's not the most compliant cat, but Yesenia was patient and managed to get 4 pills and a liquid med down each day! Because of her, we didn't have to board our cat and cause more distress for her, and she was able to stay in her home environment ❤️ We were also able to enjoy our travel and not worry about her. Our shy guy also seemed to warm up to her 😊 Both of our cats looked great and were happy when we got back! Thank you, Yesenia!
