“Nicholas is WONDERFUL!!!! Very reliable. He was on time, followed my instructions and walked my dog when it was pouring outside. I was scared my dog wouldn’t like someone else walking him but I was wrong. My dog loved Nicholas from the start. I wish I could rate more than 5 stars because Nicholas deserves it.”
“Very flexible and willing to go the extra mile to make sure your pet is taken care of, even around crazy schedules and changes. I could tell my dog was well taken care of and got plenty of affection as well as exercise. Definitely will look to rebook!”

About: I’ve had multiple dogs while growing up and am also a proud mom to 2 cats! I also have experience taking care of neighbors, family, and friends pets including feeding, walking, cleaning up after, and playtime! I have experience administering oral medications to cats and dogs. I am energetic and love getting outside to exercise with a furry companion! From zummies to cuddles, I am here to give your pet the attention it wants. I will also gladly send your picture and video updates of your pet. My schedule is very flexible now. I am a PA with an extensive healthcare background, not currently working as my next contract starts in the fall so I can visit your pet whenever is best for their schedule. I will respect your house as if it were my own. Your pet’s safely is my top priority and I will ensure that I follow any instructions given exactly and notify you if anything is off.
About: I absolutely love animals, and being in college right now I don't the means to afford my own dog. However, I do have a lot of time- only having one or two classes a day. So I would love to take care and play with and simply love on these dogs while their owners are away. I just joined the soccer team, so I'm pretty active throughout my day - which is great for dogs who love to run or have a lot of high energy. Yet, I also love to read, so this will be apt for older dogs who need to rest. I'm looking to make the most of what I have, which is love, a house, and time to give to others.
“Skye was excellent & my Nervous Nellie warmed up to her right away & was very happy to see her when she arrived for his walk😊. I will continue to call on Skye in the future for all my dog walking/playtime needs👍🏼”
“Gayla did a great job dropping in and walking our girl while we were on a weekend trip. She came by for four visits and each time it seemed our old pup was having a good time. No issues with any of the visits and admired all the pics and updates each time. Very communicative and doesn’t hesitate to reach out about any concerns about our pet. Highly recommend!”

“Reyna is a phenomenal rover. Her professionalism and keen attention to detail is unmatched when dealing with my fur buddy. When I mention his rover is on the way soon, his excitement is out the roof. If you're looking for a committed rover, that communicates extremely well, ensures your fur baby is safe, and makes your life unbelievably easier. Reyna is definitely the one 🙌🏾🙌🏾”

About: I've had dogs most of my adult life and many cats. Your pet will be loved and played with by me and my two homeschooled, pet loving boys. I'm currently a stay at home mom and I'm homeschooling my children. I'm available most weekdays and some weekends. I'll be home with your pet most of the time. I have a small fenced yard and well behaved pets are welcome in my home. I have two cats. They can be separated from pets we're boarding if needed.
About: With over a decade of hands-on experience, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family since I was a freshman in high school. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities—feeding, walking, bathing, and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I currently have two pups of my own—a playful Frenchie and an energetic Pit Bull—so I’m no stranger to managing different temperaments and energy levels. Whether it’s walking, feeding, bathing, or just providing love and comfort, I treat every pet like family. Although I work full time during the week, pet care fits naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy it. I’m available on weekends from early morning to late night, and I can also do Friday evenings. I make sure to plan my schedule so your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. When providing drop-in visits or walks, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for in their own environment. I stick to their regular routine—whether that’s feeding, fresh water, playtime, or just some comforting company. For walks, I ensure they get plenty of exercise and attention, and I always prioritize safety and their unique needs. I treat every pet like my own and make sure you stay updated with how they’re doing.

Lexie A.
“We had the absolute best experience with Lexie as our dog sitter! She cared for our two dogs like they were her own — they were so happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved while we were away. One of our pups has a sensitive stomach and the other has skin sensitivities, and Lexie was incredibly attentive to both of their needs, following their routines and keeping us updated the whole time. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. We came home to two very content dogs and a tidy space, which was such a nice bonus. Lexie is reliable, caring, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
Latoya B.
“Latoya is great with my Bullmastiff, and he is huge. She brought treats and water for their walks. She is wonderful. I will definitely book her again.”
