“Emily went over and beyond our expectations with our Remington. Updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Remington bonded with Emily very quickly and even slept with Emily! Would use her again for sure. Emily sent us a bonus surprise. A computation of all the pictures she took of our baby. Brought tears to me eyes as my girl is greying and I now have a beautiful video of her. Thank you Emily!!”

“Julie took excellent care of our pets while we were on vacation! She communicated well before and during the time she cared for our pets. It was such a reassurance knowing they were in their usual environment while we were gone. I would recommend Julie to anyone looking for a kind and reliable house and pet sitter.”

“Caroline was amazing for us. She definetly went the extra mile for our dog who was struggling with us leaving. We would highly recommend her to others!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. They have been a big part of my life. I always love getting to meet and play with new dogs! I have cared for and walked many family and friends dogs and now I want to expand my knowledge and experience!!! I have also been working at a animal shelter for 2 yrs so I have lots of experience with all types of dogs, big or small, rambunctious or scared. I love cats as well and have taken care of quite a few but I don't have a lot of experience with them. I am willing to sit with and care for pretty much any animal!!! I have also completed 2 different behavior classes through my shelter and I'm working on a third right now for dog playgroups. I'm currently only working 4 days so I have 3 days im available! I try my best to work with every schedule and I am willing to take off work for a day or two if needed but I have to have at least a 2 week notice. I do everything from potty breaks, feeding, medication, daily walks near or away from clients home (park walks), playtime alone or with other dogs, ECT.

About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for animals. I specialize in overnight care, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I'm experienced with senior pets who need extra attention and gentle care, as well as energetic puppies that require structured routines and basic training reinforcement. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to special diets, or just offering extra cuddles, I tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine, and I make it a priority in my schedule. I’m available for overnight stays during the week and weekends, and I plan my days around the pets I care for—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication. I maintain a calm, consistent environment to help pets feel secure, and I give updates regularly so you know how your pet is doing. I’m flexible and can adjust to meet your pet’s usual routine to keep them happy and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I create a calm, secure, and familiar environment by following your routines closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m always mindful of safety, keeping doors, gates, and potential hazards in check, and I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I provide regular updates with photos and messages, so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. Building trust—with both you and your pet—is at the heart of how I care.

About: I have been taking care of pets for our entire lives. i have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes (as well as reptiles, fish, and plants!). i have been pet-sitting for colleagues and friends for a while now as well as caring for three cats at home. i have previously cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including animals with special needs and medication schedules. I have a fairly flexible schedule at my day job, and will coordinate around your schedule to make sure I can meet every pet's needs. I would prefer to care for pets in your home, as they're likely to be more comfortable that way (and my cats will too). However, I can make exceptions in special cases. I do prefer to have an initial meet and greet with pets and people to make sure everyone's comfortable. For house-sitting, I goal is to make sure your pet(s) are as comfortable as possible, so I will schedule my workday to be there with them as often as possible.

“Came home to a spotless house and dogs that were obviously loved and cared for. Keri did a fantastic job with our emotionally needy but lovable mischievous wieners!!! She’s definitely a gem!”

“Emily sits for my 3 dogs and my cat when I travel out of town. She is always dependable and communicates well. She takes good care of them! I can travel without worry knowing Emily is with them.”

Lisa W.

“Kimberly was amazing! I had her watch my 2 pups while I was on vacation, and was nervous because I’ve never used rover before. She kept me updated the entire time I was away, spent a lot of time with my dogs, and sent many pictures! I was relieved to have someone that truly cares watch them. She also went above and beyond, and made sure my house and sheets were clean for me when I got back. Would 100% recommended her to anyone”

I absolutely love it and all of our sweet animals we have. I have 4 dogs and a rabbit that I adore.

“Kathleen was awesome. She came at the time requested. She showed great interest in our dog from the moment she walked in the door. During her stay she stayed in touch with us and provided pictures. We will definitely book again”

“Judy was great! Came and met our boy before we left. Showed her around. She came and took care of him, stayed most of the time with him. Sent photos, which made me feel better about leaving him. Met up with me at a convenient location to return our key. She was great and caring. Would hire again.”

Denise H.

“Ella was wonderful with my dog Charlotte. Took her on a walk, pampered her and made sure that she was fed on time and pampered. She also went the extra mile and helped me with my two outdoor cats. I will definitely use Ella again. She is a rare find!”

About: I’ve always been around animals growing up. Any where from hermit crabs, fancy mice, cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters- I’ve cared for and loved them all. I’ve always been told that it’s our job to take care of our pets (companions), and what better way than to help others take care of theirs when needed. As of now, I am only available during Friday evenings at around 5:45-6 to Sunday evenings. I’m working everyday during the week, so I had to change my schedule around a bit, but I wasn’t quite ready to give Rover up yet. I love taking care of animals so I’m still trying to make this work with my busy schedule! You never have to worry when your babies are with me. I have a fenced in yard, where they can run around while being watched. If I’m visiting their home, I will do what the owner ask of me and give all the attention to the fur babies!

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and even a few ducks in the mix occasionally. Aside from a random year or two, I can’t remember a time where I wasn’t taking care of animals growing up. My family was one that placed intentional responsibility on the kids to take care of our animals. While I’ve been dog sitting since high school, I have gotten more experience in recent years, especially dog sitting for church friends and coworkers. I tend to have a lot of energy and love moving a lot, so I’m always ready to play with your pup or take them for a walk. If your dog’s speed is more chill, I also enjoy just hanging around and giving dogs a good belly rub. My approach to pet sitting is to spend intentional time with your pup doing things that they really enjoy. I want to give you peace of mind as a pet owner and help your dog have fun and feel relaxed! I work a typical 9-to-5 job, but my weeknights and weekends are usually pretty flexible—especially in advance. For dog walking, I usually prefer afternoons or evenings as opposed to mornings but am generally pretty flexible! I have a lot of experience with a lot of different kinds of dogs. My aim is to make your dog feel comfortable and at ease around me. I will do my best to essentially match your dog’s energy level so that they don’t feel overwhelmed or bored around me. I genuinely love animals and enjoy spending time with them. While you’re away, I will aim to love your pet almost as much as you do (although I know nothing could ever top your care for them)!

“Kaitlyn, Did a nice job of keeping me informed of how things were going, which was much appreciated. There were some challenges with one of my dogs appetite and she was very attentive to him and communicative with me.”
