“Pauline to the rescue! She was great with our Golden retriever, Jax. Always on time and very friendly. She took great notes and kept us up to date. We will definitely keep using her in the future.”

About: Hi! My name is Van and I'm a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet caregiver. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member. I used to have a dog myself, so I understand their unique needs whether it’s high energy walks, gentle strolls for seniors, or extra patience with puppies. I provide attentive, loving care and make sure every walk is fun, safe and tailored to your pup’s personality. I fit dog care/walking into my day alongside with rebuilding my baking business in a new city. I genuinely love being around dogs! Right now, it's just a side gig, but I’d love for it to become a bigger part of my routine. Getting outside, spending time with pups, and making sure they’re happy and cared for is something I really enjoy! It also gives me my puppy fix since I probably won't own one for awhile. I focus on making your pup feel comfortable, safe, and loved. For walks, I tailor to their energy/pace level and make sure they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and attention. During drop-in visits, I ensure they have food, fresh water, potty breaks and lots of affection and playtime. My goal is to provide dependable, caring service so you can have peace of mind.

About: Hi, I'm Mia! I love pups of all personalities and energy levels! I've had dogs for most of my life, and I've dog-sat for friends and family for the past 4 years. I'll be sure to treat your fur baby with the utmost kindness, respect, and compassion. I'm also comfortable with bully breeds! I'm a graduate student, so my schedule is very flexible! Usually, I keep my early mornings and evenings free, but I'm also happy to drop by in the middle of the day for potty or play time (or much needed stress relief for myself!). My schedule’s flexibility is amenable to last minute bookings and cancellations too. I love all animals, and approach each with respect, care, and patience. I am happy to send photos of your fur baby each time I stop by, take pups for a short walk around the neighborhood, or a longer walk too. Overall, I hope to be a positive addition to your pet's environment :)

“Rich walker our dog during the holidays. He followed the instructions and schedule and he was very responsible. He was able to come on time on Christmas Eve after he had dinner with his family. He didn’t forget about our dog when one of his family member went to ER. He communicated it well and we adjusted the schedule so that it worked for both of us. I would highly recommend Rich if you are looking for a dog sitter.”


About: I have had pets for as long as I could remember. Although my family started with small animals at first, when I was in high school, we got our first cat, a Scottish Fold named Cali! Now I have two dogs, Taco and Willow, and a snake, Java. I am also currently a vet student and have worked in the veterinary field for about 5 years. I have also been in the animal care industry for about 6 years. With my experience, you can rest assured that someone experienced in animal care, animal behavior, and veterinary medicine is taking wonderful care of your dog! Asides from knowing how to perform medical procedures for animals, I also love to train dogs. I’m very interested in behavioral medicine and enjoy training my own two little ones. Taco is task-trained by myself alone. Do you have a behaviorally complex or reactive dog? No worries! I have experience handling reactive and anxious dogs, even having managed to train one to be able to walk on the same side of the street as other dogs! All of my background and knowledge will help me take the best care of your family members! *Please note that on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I am only available past 5. On most Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am free in the morning until noon. For this reason, I offer the best quality care for lower prices!* I am currently a student working part-time, so my current weekday availability is after 5:30 PM (though my weekend schedule is far more flexible). Going on walks and stopping by to care for animals is a great way for me to destress so you’ll know that I am enjoying my time with you loved ones and thus are taking the best care of them! I understand how to read animal body language very well from all of my years working in the vet industry. I know how to approach both confident and fearful animals, as I have a slightly anxious girl myself. I always use treats, attention, and toys as a way to gain their trust and strongly believe in positive reinforcement training, as well as a fear free approach. I know how to ensure that the room is dog/cat-proofed and what signs to look out for should your pet not be feeling well. Important to note that I am fear free certified!

About: I got my first golden retriever in kindergarten and took care of her all through college. While in college, I trained service dogs for The Guide Dog Foundation. I also have had more than 15 foster dogs of varying anxiety levels and general needs. I look forward to meeting all kinds of dogs from baby puppies who need structure to seniors who need mobility assistance and patience. I’m working part-time. I make my own schedule most of the time. I’ll be teaching online and in person during afternoons in the school year. I look forward to meeting all kinds of dogs for walking, play dates, and overnights. I look forward to providing your pets with the most safe environment. I’ve had training in dog safety by working with fosters, animal rescues, and service dog training.


“He proactively asked to meet before the walk to meet my dog Lucy and I, and to see where things in the house would be kept such as the leash, dog bags, etc. He wrote personalized summaries of their walks, filled the water bowl and left the light on as asked. Excellent dog walker with a lot of dog experience pre-dating Rover.”


“Miss Kk has been the absolute best dog walker for my 15lb dachshund mix for the past few months, 3x a week. We are in the area for work and staying at a hotel and she adjusted so well to the hotel life and the hotel staff absolutely love her and so does my pup. She is so reliable and has never cancelled on me ever. She is so sweet and I highly recommend using her for any and all services.”


“Twinkle was absolutely wonderful with our dog. She can be a bit hesitant with new people and other dogs. Twinkle was very patient and caring with our old girl. And gave detailed review cards. Will definitely be reaching out in the future for any other trips!”


About: I have taken care of 2 Chihuahuas for 17 +years, since they were babies to seniors. After sending them to "Rainbow Bridge" in 2022, I've become my family friends dog sitter. I stay at home full time, so I can watch your baby and you can enjoy your time out. I will stay with them during the night also. We live in a house with a patio and I will take them for a walk around neighborhood several times a day. My husband and 2 teenage sons love dogs very much too.

About: With over 4 years of experience in cat sitting and raising my own cat, I have developed a deep understanding and love for cat companions. My journey with cats has been tailored to each cat’s unique personality and needs. I'm reliable and compassionate individual who understands the unique needs and behaviors of cats. I'm also adept at recognizing signs of stress or illness in cats and know when to seek veterinary assistance if necessary. I maintain a clean and safe environment, provide sufficient playtime and affection, and respect the cat's boundaries. I will communicate effectively with the pet owners, providing updates and addressing any concerns promptly. Work from home for most of the time with flexible working hours, as such can adjust the time needed for your cat's stay and other activities. As cats are usually indoor animals, will keep them in doors. If your cats love to play outside, can take them out once a day under leash. Room and cat litter box cleaned every day.

“Mika is the dog whisperer. She’s amazing and so kind and patient. My dog Jake can be a handful but is so calm with Mika. She has a way to calm even the most hyper dog. He loves staying with her and her family is so nice. She makes sure Jake gets enough exercise and socialization. And she is so mindful of his diet and medicine. We love her and completely trust her with our Jake. She’s just superb and we always have our Jake stay with her whenever we need to leave town.”


Mengting W.
“I am thrilled to recommend Sara (Mengting) as a responsible and caring pet caregiver. Over the past three years, Sara has shown unwavering dedication to caring for her Bengal cat. Her genuine love for animals, especially cats, shines through in everything she does. Sara not only ensures her cat’s physical needs are met but also prioritizes its emotional well-being. She engages the cat with regular playtime, bonding activities, and has a natural talent for understanding the needs of pets, providing them with a safe and happy environment. I have no doubt that Sara would offer exceptional care and attention to any pet in her charge, and I wholeheartedly recommend her for any pet caregiving role.”
