“Angelee is amazingly attentive with our two cats when we are out of town. She comes promptly, plays with them, keeps me updated, and even goes as far as bringing in the mail! We appreciate her!”

“Maddison was amazing! She kept us in the loop the whole time and took such great care of our dogs. Little things like wiping their paws when it rained really showed how thoughtful she is. We'd definitely book her again!”

“Katelyn was great!! We had a last minute trip and she agreed to do a meet & greet asap. She was flexible and accommodating. She even left some treats for my pup after she left! I will definitely be using Katelyn again to check in on my dog, Thor. I came home to a happy healthy pups 😊”

“She was amazing! She let us know anytime something happened whether they chewed something up or got a scratch when she stopped by. She was very communicative. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Morgan was very sweet and took great care of my cat. She took photos and videos for us, played with her, and cuddled with her. I deeply appreciate Morgan treating our baby just like her own. Highly recommend”

“Steffany is an awesome pet sitter! We've booked her previously and will definitely book her in the future. She recently went above and beyond while watching our Lab puppy during a terrible thunderstorm. She's great at checking in and detailing the visit. We have total confidence in leaving our pets in her care. Highly recommend!”

“Brooke too such great care of our cat, Yul! She was prompt, super easy to work with, and left us at ease. I would definitely recommend Brooke to anyone looking for pet care 😊”

“Claresse was amazing! She kept me updated with pictures and daily updates while I was on vacation. I am so happy that I chose someone who took the time to make sure my little gentlemen were cared for had the chance to get their energy out. She was really easy to work with and I would totally recommend.”

“Amanda did a great job! She had fantastic communication and I would 10/10 recommend her. Hopefully the next time we need someone to check on our fur babies, she will be available!”

“Breelyn was great with my dogs- an old boy that sometimes can't hold his poo and my scared of strangers girl who needs time to warm up. She was prompt, always let me know how they were doing, and took great care of them. Would absolutely recommend her.”
“Taylor was great with my babies, I’m definitely a worrier and hate leaving my dogs but it was definitely a relief to know they’re being well taken care of in the comfort of their own home. She was very patient and understanding with my girl Cleo who is terribly shy and can be wary of strangers. We had a couple meet and greets ahead of time and she really went out of her way to accommodate my girl. My first time using a pet sitter that wasn’t a personal friend who knows my dogs well and any worry I had was squashed very quickly. The constant updates definitely put me at ease as much as possible when I’m away from my kids. Even brought in some auto ship Chewy packages that happened to be timed for the days we were away. Being able to avoid a boarding facility for my babies was great since my nervous girl tends to not trust strangers when it comes to bathroom breaks, and I worried she wouldn’t eat in a facility due to stress. Not to mention being able to see my dogs as soon as we got back from our trip is the best. Would definitely recommend and use her in the future.”


About: I’m an animal lover who truly enjoys spending time caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. While I haven’t owned a dog myself, I have experience caring for dogs of my friends and family, including feeding, walking, playtime, and basic care routines. I’m patient, attentive to instructions, and take the time to learn each pet’s personality and needs. I currently own a cat, so I understand the responsibility that comes with daily pet care, routines, and building trust with animals. I’m always happy to follow specific instructions and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I enjoy making time to give animals attention, play, and care. I’m reliable with schedules, flexible when possible, and committed to meeting each pet’s daily needs, including feeding, litter care, walks, and quality companionship. I currently work part-time but have the semester off with school, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and following instructions exactly as given. I’m respectful in clients homes and attentive to pets behavior and comfort. I also provide updates so owners feel confident and informed.
“Anna has been great dropping in a few times for the first week of me using the Rover app! She’s been a great help dropping in to help take my puppy Koopa out, feeding him, and also reinforcing his training we’ve been working on while my girlfriend and I are at work.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and grew up caring for a dog that I was solely responsible for. Now I have an Australian Shepherd who I love dearly, who gets along with every dog she’s ever met and I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pup. Whether I’m doing a check-in, taking them for a walk, or having them over to play with my dog, I’ll make sure they’re happy, safe, and cared for. I have a big, fully fenced backyard and a dog-friendly home where they’re welcome to roam. You’re welcome to bring their crate, bed, or anything else that makes them comfortable. I’m flexible, accommodating, and happy to discuss your dog’s unique needs so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I am typically available evenings on Mondays-Thursdays after 5pm and available all day Friday-sundays including overnight visits and can be flexible for your puppy needs Clients can request to bring their dogs crates, beds, however their dog feels the most comfortable for naps and winding down. My puppy sleeps in a crate so she would give your dog the space they need to decompress. I have long leashes in my back yard that are secured and unbreakable that I attach every dog to for extra security in case they get out. If your dog is with me eyes will be on them the entire time. They will be safe.

About: I’ve had my own dog for the past two years and personally potty trained her, taught her tricks, and trained her to be comfortable and well-behaved around people. I also worked in child care for two years, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for others with attention and love. I treat every dog with the same care and protection I would give a one-year-old baby, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away. I’m available Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day, and Wednesday from 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM. I’m flexible during those times and happy to work with your pet’s routine. I create a safe, calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on your pet’s safety and happiness. I treat every dog like family and make sure they get plenty of attention and supervision.
About: I’ve taken care of pets on military bases for about 6-8 years watching animals and taking them out while people are on vacation or have been sent out of state somewhere. I have pet sat for all types of people and pets. Some with special needs and requirements other with tons of energy and needs lots of love! I’m here to be a companion for your furry family member so they aren’t stressed or overwhelmed while your away! I’m fairly flexible. I work from 6-8 am, 9:30-11:30am and 1pm- 5pm. So I’m good at spending time with them during my breaks and after work. I only work a few days a week so I am also good for night schedules. I try to keep my focus to the animal itself only touching things that relate to the pet and their environment. I am very respectful in a clients home, I’m good at cleaning up any messes quick and efficiently and don’t really get grossed out easily. I am good at following directions and keeping boundaries.

About: I volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.

Steffany is doing a wonderful job taking care of my two orange cats! She is keeping their litter box and area clean and their food and water filled as requested. I recommend Steffany to everyone who needs care for their pets. Steffany takes her job with seriously and cares for my cats exactly as I requested.
Anna is my go to anytime I’m out of town! We recently added a new kitten to our pets and he instantly loved her, not to mention the fact that my shy cat has began to trust her. She always updates me and sends lots of pictures, I can’t imagine leaving my cats with anyone else!

Katie took on a longer pet sitting job with some different variables than probably present during the average job and handled everything efficiently and professionally. Our many cats seemed less stressed with her presence than with other sitters, which I great appreciate. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with before and after and I'd recommend her to other local pet parents looking for assistance.

I am so grateful for Ara! She did amazing with my young, large dog who can be a handful sometimes. She was very attentive and went above & beyond, making sure all my animals had their needs met & enough attention and love. I appreciate the communication I received as well throughout my trip. Will absolutely be using her again!
