“Rubi did and amazing job, Chapo & Coco were in good hands. She is trust worthy, she is very respectful, and kept us informed and sent pictures and videos. We will definitely hire her again.”



“Alexee is caring, gives great updates, follows care instructions, and communicates very well. The fact that she actually read our dog profile before meeting was impressive, since many Rover sitters/walkers in our experience seem not to bother (unfortunately). Also, while we were away, our dog had some unanticipated diarrhea and behavior issues on walks, and Alexee was quick to let us know her observations and heed advice for next steps. She also helped us out in a pinch by scheduling a last minute booking, when were unable to return to our animals in time. Isn’t this exactly the sort of thing that Rover is for? We highly recommend Alexee to anyone, and are looking forward to booking her again.”



About: I have been pet sitting for the past 7 years for several long time customers. I work with the animals on any behavior issues while in my care. I grew up on a farm so animals have always been a big part of my life. I own an energetic Catahoula. He is crate trained but sleeps with me a night. We are all very friendly and love to play. We live by a park that we can go walk at with lots of ducks and water. I work from home so I am available for many potty breaks. I would love to meet your fur baby! I assure you they will be loved as if they were my own! I work from home so I will always be here to watch your pup. I will ensure regular potty breaks. I go out to dinner usually once a week, so I'll only be gone for a few hours one day. I will keep my dog separated at first, to ensure a smooth transition. All dogs will kept apart at feeding times. When they are let outside I will watch them closely. Walks daily and plenty of treats and snuggles.

About: Hi there! I’ve been a devoted dog mom for 19 years, including caring for a large breed pup for over a decade. I’m deeply attuned to the emotional and physical needs of animals — from energetic young dogs to gentle geriatric pets who need a slower pace and extra love. I’m skilled at reading body language and anticipating what your pet might need before they even ask for it. I believe that every dog and cat deserves care that is calm, responsive, and full of affection. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect I give my own — I’m neat, thoughtful, and follow all care instructions closely. I’m also quick to communicate and always happy to send updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. Whether we’re snuggling on the couch, going for a walk, or sharing quiet company, your pet’s well-being and emotional comfort are my top priorities. I'm available every day from 7 am to 10 pm with some exceptions based on client needs. Please feel free to ask for any needs outside of these hours. As a lifelong dog lover, my first priority is always your pup’s safety and well-being. I keep dogs leashed at all times when outdoors and closely follow regular feeding schedules while monitoring for healthy water intake. I believe every dog deserves exercise and stimulation that fits their body, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s a short walk, backyard play, or quiet companionship, I tailor the experience to meet their individual needs. I always ask about medications, allergies, and health routines up front. I'm also well-versed in foods that are harmful to dogs and never offer people food — only what you've approved. You can trust that your dog will be cared for with attentiveness, consistency, and deep respect for your preferences. Their safety and comfort come first.


About: My name is Edwin D Rodriguez I live with my mom and sister, I will would gladly take care of your furry friend, especially on the weekends. I would gladly take care of dogs, size from chihuahua to labrador. Size or breed of dog doesn’t matter when it comes to housesitting or daycare at my residence. I will do all I can to respond as soon as possible. I have been taking care of dogs for my family ever since I was a freshman in high school. We have a decent sized house, but not big for a Saint Bernard to live in, but we do have a big backyard. Possibly the biggest backyard in my entire neighborhood, if a dog is required walking I’ll be right on it. I’m currently going to college full time but I still find time to play, pet and feed the dogs everyday they are at my residence. House sitting is rare but whenever I do make sure the dogs are safe, secure and well fed. Also make sure the client’s house is well taken care of also.

“Thank you Talia & Andrew for picking up Rocko, Maisie, and Guch for a walk, was a pleasure so to meet you and they enjoyed their walk, they slept for a long time after ?. You know when you meet good people because your furry “kids” get happy and excited, how mine did. Can’t wait to see you again.”


About: Years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I specialize in maintaining consistent routines for comfort and stability. What truly sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and ability to quickly build trust with even the most shy or anxious dogs. Whether it’s a playful puppy full of energy or a senior pet who needs a gentle touch, I treat every dog as if they were my own—with love, respect, and unwavering reliability. I currently work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate focused time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make it a priority to stick to each pet’s routine as closely as possible. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I maintain a calm, pet-friendly environment that’s clean, secure, and free of hazards. In your home, I respect your pet’s routine and space, following your instructions closely to ensure consistency and comfort. I always prioritize open, honest communication so you feel confident and informed every step of the way.

About: I have taken care of friends dogs for years, I love working with dogs. When my friends will ask me to take care of them, I will gladly do so and walk them around, play with them, especially catch because what dog does not like to play catch, I will sit with them for a bit and watch some tv, run around the backyard to play catch me if you can, all sorts of things. I like to do these activities with my dog also and she loves them, thing is she never runs out of energy jaja. I also know how to take care of senior dogs, as I had one of my own before and had to clean up after him after his little accidents, try to comfort him as much as possible to keep them safe, not be rough to play with if they can and if they want to relax next to a person, then so be it we relax on the couch, on the floor, or anywhere. For the summer I am available throughout the week from morning until late afternoon. Once I go back to work my schedule changes from morning/afternoon to late afternoon/evening. At home I have a trained Goldendoodle that goes out to do her necessities many times a day, has a schedule for her meals twice a day, we play in the backyard catch or run around or we go for a walk around the neighborhood. When I taken care od my friends dogs, I will do the same routine they are use to with their parents so they can feel normal just with another person and be extra friendly with them as I know they miss theie family at all times. I offer to go walk, play, feed, spend some time throughout the day so they aren’t alone at all times.

About: Hello! I have been around animals my whole life! I have had five cats over the course of my life (two of which and currently sunbathing haha!) so I’ve dealt with just about everything they can throw at ya, including medical conditions like feline leukemia. I also love dogs! I regularly dog sit for my sister’s four pup, and when I was young my first “job” was helping at my grandpas kennel where he trained Brittany spaniels and pointers for field trials! I have experience giving medication to cats and dogs, and I don’t shy away from cleaning up a mess! I also have a good understanding of cat and dog body language I am a college student so my schedule is very flexible during the summers and breaks like thanksgiving, Christmas, and spring break. During the Semester I am mainly available in the afternoons and evenings during the week, and all day on weekends. Due to my degree (music education) I will sometimes have a concert and on those days I will not be available much if at all before late at night. Of course any and all schedule conflicts will be communicated as early as possible. I currently live in an apartment with my two cats. They have multiple cat towers including the massive one I lovingly call Mount Cat, multiple cat beds, multiple litter boxes, a cat water fountain, bowls that don’t aggravate their whiskers, and a nice big patio where they can lay in the sun and watch the birds and squirrels! I feed my cats a wet food diet twice a day for their health and hydration. I subscribe to the Jackson galaxy way of thinking and caring for cats!

About: I've been raised around pets my entire life. I've helped take of dogs, cats, sugar gliders, fish, iguanas, snakes, rats, and whatever else my dad wanted as a pet growing up. I have 2 dogs, a rabbit, and some fish for my own. I'm comfortable around big dogs and will treat any of your pets better than I treat myself. I have an open schedule at the moment but that could change in the next month or so. I'm free to do drop ins whenever you need right now, day or night. My two dogs are indoor dogs and I take them for small walks throughout the day since I don't have a yard. They aren't kenneled any and our rabbit is a free roaming rabbit in our bedroom.

About: I've have my own puppy since 5 years ago I personally trained my dog my self ,I had a few cats too and I've take care of my friend's pets I am available every day I can have pets on home Monday thru Sunday at any time ,I work from home so I am always home . I have a fence yard , dog and cat toys , big pets beds and they can be on the furniture and in the whole house

About: I have always loved animals. Not just pets. I’m vegan and animals mean more to me than anything in this world. I have always been around dogs, cats, raccoons, opossums, cows, you name it. I have three dogs of my own and two cats. I am gentle and sure to take great care of all of my furry friends :) I work online from home, so I have a VERY open schedule. This just interested me because it’s a chance to meet new, sweet fur-babies since I cannot afford to have ten dogs of my own. I have two dogs. However, if needed they can be separated from other dogs. I have a nice sized yard for room to play. I also have a pool for my friends who like swimming!

About: I am enthusiastic and keep my body language relaxed/open while around dogs. I have always held a good relationship from small to large dogs. In my opinion, animals can feel genuine compassion from human beings. Dogs are so innocent and deserved to be treated with care. I have raised the family dog since he was a puppy and now is 4 years with great health. My friends and family who have pets will call me to watch their pets while they leave for vacation. I have gained their trust to be around their pet alone as well as to be in their household alone. Following a schedule given to me is very easy and helps me do my service with direction. I am a very respectful human being because I would like the same treatment reciprocated.

About: I’ve been talking care of all kinds of dogs since I was 16 for fun, but I started charging after I graduated from high school. I took it more seriously and it became like nice alternative job to have. I’m currently working full-time from Monday to Friday. I get out of 4 and the weekends, I’m usually off. I have holidays off, so you catch one of those I can definitely work something. I provide loving, reliable pet care in my clients’ homes, ensuring their dogs stay comfortable, safe, and stress-free. I prioritize trust, routine, and personalized attention for every pet.
