“Emanuela did a great job taking care of my senior cat Bella while I was on vacation. She arrived right on time every day and communicated with me during her visits. I would definitely use her again! Thank you!”
“Jesse was amazing!! My 2 dogs immediately took to her - she was a great match for them. She was attentive and detail oriented, having no trouble with my dogs routine. She made me feel secure knowing she was taking such good care of my kiddos while I was away. Will definitely hire her again in the future.”
About: Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. For over five years, I’ve provided reliable pet care for dogs and cats, from daily walks to overnight stays. I’m experienced with all ages and temperaments, including senior pets and those with anxiety. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe and loved Currently i work a full time job M-F 8-4pm. Open to pet sitting after work. Available all day on weekends. In August I will be starting law school and my schedule will open up to Fridays/Saturdays- Sundays all day I can accommodate pets who prefer alone time or need crating, and I follow any specific routines or instructions to make your pet feel at home. Cleanliness, comfort, and supervision are always a top priority.
“Elizabeth was a warm and living caregiver for my newly rescued cat while I was away. She also kept me informed and sent adorable pictures! I am so grateful to have found Elizabeth!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to wise seniors—and have plenty of hands-on experience. Growing up, I regularly watched my neighbors’ pets, feeding, playing, and making sure they felt loved and safe. Your furry friend will be in caring, experienced hands! I work per diem at the hospital in the emergency room. I make my own hours and am very flexible. I able to do drop ins to feed or walk, or board at my house with my two fur babies. I have a big fenced in yard with 2 of my own dogs. They are very playful and love other dogs. I can crate the dogs if needed or they can snuggle on the couch or bed with us.
“Sabita went above and beyond to help us. When our other sitter ended up going to the emergency room, Sabita responded to my panicked Rover message within 2 hours, and made time for my pets. She was communicative, punctual, and followed our directions. She additionally boarded our dog for a few hours during a home sale Open House, then helped find the escaped cats (loose in the house following the Open House) and still came back for a night time visit. She let us know that there was a leak in the kitchen, and helped lay out towels and a bin to catch water. Sabita couldn’t have been more helpful and kind. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Natalie took such great care of our sweet Finn!! She was communicative and thoughtful and we so appreciate how she came on short notice 🙏🏻 We’ll definitely be calling her again. Thank you Natalie!”
“Caitlin did an amazing job taking care of our kitty, Tigra. Tigra is very shy, however Caitlin managed to get her out from under the bed, which is a real accomplishment. We received regular updates, pictures and even a video showing Tigra's "adventures". The place was spotless clean when we came back from our trip. Caitlin took good care of everything we had discussed. We are very thankful to Caitlin for caring for our kitty during our absence. I definitely recommend Caitlin to anyone who can't travel with their pets. Thank you, Caitlin for taking care of our Tigra.”
“Maria was FANTASTIC to work with! She was communicative and we felt very safe and secure leaving our dog while we went on vacation. She provided feedback and pictures after each visit, and gave our dog extra love and attention which we appreciated! We would 100% choose to work with her in the future!”
“Sophia was so easy to work with and my pup really liked her. She walked her each day and sent pictures to update us. We had some flight delays due to weather and Sophia was very accommodating. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I have two German Shepherds, one Belgian Malinois, one Shepsky, and this Jack Russell mix that completes this motley crew. I am a nurse who finds solace and stress relief in spending time with and caring for animals, especially dogs. I’d love to help you out with your pups if they need walks or playtime. I have cared for medically fragile dogs in the past and will follow your, or the vets, instructions as needed. I have over one acre of land for your dogs to play if they are to board in my home. I am home most of the time in the summer. If you have any questions, just ask! I’m a school nurse now, so I’m off during the summer months and holidays. I run errands sometimes during the day, or step out to walk dogs. I’m not gone for long. My schedule will change during the school year, but I will be home late afternoons and weekends. If I’m dropping in only, I’ll play with your pup and clean up any messes they’ve made or follow your instructions. If I’m taking them for a walk, I take a few minutes to get to know them if they haven’t met me before or play to say hi. Water bowls are cleaned and refilled before I leave. Big dogs subject to bloat - I let them calm down if panting after a walk before watering/feeding. If they’re in my home, they’re treated like royalty along with my pack. Introductions are done outside so that there’s no tension. Everyone is playing and the meeting is casual. I look to you for information on their personalities and care. I have an invisible fence for my dogs. If your dog is familiar and trained, I can provide a collar. I’m also experienced and trained with the e collar if that’s how your pup was trained. It will never be used as punishment.
About: We’ve had many dogs from small to large over the last 18 years. We’d love to take care of your pets so you can unwind and unplug. We are around most weekends over the summer to walk/ board your pets. During the week, we work full time but can stop in before and after work and before bed. We will treat your dog as one of our own. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and bed. We have a large fenced in backyard for exercise and play. Our 3 kids will tire out your pup. Unfortunately our daughter is allergic to cats so we can’t board them but we’d love to drop in to feed/ play with them.
“This is the second time we booked Bridget to watch our cats - and we will be booking her again. She communicates consistently so we know cats are doing well and followed all our instructions thoughtfully.”
About: I have love and deep respect for animals, my experience is based on taking care of both dogs and cats and nothing would make me happier than having the opportunity to make income doing what I like. I am willing to take care of any kind of pets, always open to suggestions and to improve every day more. My house does not have a closed yard but I am extremely careful to avoid any incidents, I live near a lake so we can have very pleasant walks. I am at home full time so I can stay with them and give them excellent quality time. Play, time to pee and poop and just walk. My yard is open, I am extremely careful and I always walk on a leash. My Labrador is very playful and loves dog company 😍
“Alex was perfect with Jax! She responded quickly to request and setting up dates, handled his anxious pushback when she first came over extremely well and then he was very happy after she left him from both visits. I will absolutely be using her again for my boy!”
