I highly recommend Sabrina! She is punctual, gave my dog tons of attention, played with him, and took him on great walks. Communication was a breeze—she responded quickly to every message. My pup was happy and well-cared for every time!

Since we just relocated from Florida, we were a bit lost trying to find a pet sitter for our morkie. Since only friends and family watched him, we were a very nervous. Mikayla was wonderful and took great care of our little guy. We will continue to use Mikayla.

I wanted to reach out and thank Abby for being so diligent about keeping us updated whenever her schedule changes. We truly appreciate her communication and the care she provides. We are entrusting both of our dogs to Abby's care. One of them is particularly sensitive due to his age and general nature. I have been genuinely worried about his well-being. We would not trust just anyone with our pets. We have a great deal of confidence in Abby and feel very comfortable having them in her care.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and have a genuine love for pets of all kinds. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I provide attentive, loving care and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic medications, or simply providing companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, high-energy breeds, and shy pets, and I’m committed to keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Because I stay at home, I can provide plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I’m happy to accommodate them to help your pet feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I have two friendly dogs and a cat of my own, so caring for animals is part of my daily life. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requests.

About: I’ve loved animals literally forever and I think they deserve good care!! I’ve been taking care of them since I was 14 (I’m 23) so quite a while now. I consider this line of work to be mutually beneficial:) I’m very flexible with making sure I take walks and such, so I just add them in.

I do walks, clean up, play with them (if they want to, haha), brush, and even bathe if they need it.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. My family and friends had pets but it wasn’t enough! I convinced my parents really young to get a dog and since then, I’ve taken care of and trained 3 dogs of my own. Friends and family that get pets often ask me for advice. I have a very nurturing personality and it translates well with animals, so I absolutely love them! I have experience training and basic grooming/bathing! I work remotely so I am home and available to take care of your furry friend :) I will ensure that I know your animal’s temperament/likes/dislikes in order to make both of us comfortable! I’m very attentive and know how to distract/entertain needy animals (from experience haha). I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a spike that goes into the ground that is secure and has a long leash. Other than that, I have a dog friendly neighborhood that we can take walks around!

I will follow detailed instructions to the letter to ensure the very best care and no accidents. If I ever have ANY doubt or need clarification, I will contact you BEFORE acting. If I encounter an emergency or urgent situation, you will be the first to know so long as no emergency response is required first. Nothing will be hidden from you and you won’t come home to any unexpected surprises or situations. At my last visit of longer duration care I will give a status update and pictures. Puppies and kittens are no problem at all for me to watch. From pregnant mommas to newborns, I can confidently care for all their needs.

I will never cancel on you short of an actual emergency with as much notice as possible. Your animals will always be given thorough care. I will be there for the time you are investing in with hands on attention. They will never be yelled at, yanked, or treated cruelly. I am responsive, gentle, and patient. Your home is your sanctuary and I will treat it with respect according to your wishes. Please clearly define which areas are open to be in and any you want to remain closed or private. Your personal property will only be handled/used as appropriate to the job. If I can’t find something, I will ask you.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was about eleven years old. Growing up, I always dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, and my love for animals led me to start volunteering at a local shelter when I was young. What began as a childhood dream quickly turned into a lifelong passion. Through years of volunteering and hands-on experience, I’ve had the opportunity to care for animals with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. Spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved is something that truly brings me joy. My passion for animal care has only grown stronger over the years, and I would love the opportunity to share that dedication with you by helping care for your pets and making sure they’re happy while you’re away ☺️🐾 I’m currently in nursing school and pet sitting through Rover full-time. Since most of my studying is done from home, I’m able to spend lots of time with the pets in my care, giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. It’s the perfect balance for me—I get to focus on my studies while also caring for and snuggling with the amazing pets I’m trusted to watch. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!! 🥰 I have several years of experience dog sitting, cat sitting, dog walking, and volunteering at animal shelters, along with caring for pets of my own. These experiences have taught me how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I always strive to give every pet the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I maintain a consistent routine and stay attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box care, potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of affection. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and loving environment so that your pets feel happy, secure, and well cared for at all times!! 🐾💕

I wanted to reach out and thank Abby for being so diligent about keeping us updated whenever her schedule changes. We truly appreciate her communication and the care she provides. We are entrusting both of our dogs to Abby's care. One of them is particularly sensitive due to his age and general nature. I have been genuinely worried about his well-being. We would not trust just anyone with our pets. We have a great deal of confidence in Abby and feel very comfortable having them in her care.
