About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since I was 13. I always love meeting new dogs and their families and making a connection with them! Whether it’s taking a dog for a walk, coming over to feed them, or staying overnight, I am always happy to help out another family with their animal needs! I love creating relationships with pets and pet owners, and currently have a handful of pet families I regularly sit for. I would love for you to join a part of my pet journey! I substitute teach in addition to Rover and other side hustles, so I am usually available to let out your pup every 6 hours (if not less!). If you have special needs or requests, my schedule is flexible :) I am currently living in an apartment with a cat that doesn’t love other animals, so dog sitting from my home will not be an option for now.

About: I have taken care of a large dog for 14 years and have been around dogs my whole life. I have taken care of and walked dogs of neighbors and friends, both in my home and in their home. I love walking and staying active, and will be very attentive to your pup! I work completely from home, M-F 9-5! I have a lot of free time for walks, attention giving, etc and am perfectly suited to care on the weekends as well. I live by several parks and in a very dog-friendly building. The apartment is puppy proofed, and though not suitable for longer stays, is great for short-term, 1 night only or daytime stays! I'm very familiar with the city and would be happy to bring your dog on adventures throughout :) Let me know if you have any more questions!

“I can’t say enough about how grateful we are to have found Catalina. She was truly amazing! From the start, I felt completely comfortable. She was professional, compassionate, and genuinely caring. Throughout our three week trip, Catalina sent regular updates, photos, and videos, which made a huge difference for me as I was feeling very anxious being away. Her communication gave us real peace of mind, and that’s everything when leaving your pets in someone else's care. We absolutely plan to use her again and again. Highly recommend!”


About: I had my own dog for 10 years, so I understand the love and care they need every day. I also regularly dog-sit for my best friend’s two pups and have experience with larger breeds. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just providing comfort while you’re away, I treat every dog like my own. I work from home and don’t have any pets of my own right now, which gives me plenty of time and energy to care for yours. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to help give your dog the attention they deserve while you’re away or busy with your day.

About: Ive had experience caring for my own rabbits and dogs since I was a kid. I have raised my baby boy in my current home and have experience caring for friends and family dogs and cats when they go away. I am available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 6pm. If there is any other time that you wish, please feel free to reach out and we can try to work something out I have an open condo that is free from any harm to dogs. If needed I can keep your dog in a crate. From time to time I enjoy taking my mini golden doodle to the park or to my parents home which includes an open backyard.

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Regina K. as a pet sitter for my cat, Layla, while I was on vacation, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Regina followed all of the instructions I left for her perfectly and took great care of Layla during each home visit. She was very nice and pleasant to communicate with, which made me feel at ease while I was away. Regina made sure Layla had her treats, wet food, and fresh water, cleaned the litter box thoroughly, and even spent time playing with her—something that meant a lot to me. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Layla’s well-being and comfort. I really appreciate Regina’s help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you, Regina!”
