About: I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have an animal in my life. From shepherds to terriers, I have experience with large, medium, and small dogs. I also have experience caring for cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve trained my own dogs, cared for foster puppies, and have experience handling pets with different needs and temperaments. I’m very open to feedback, learn quickly, and always strive to provide the best care possible. When you book with me, you can expect meaningful, attentive, and reliable care for your pet. Your fur baby will have my full attention, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Rain or shine, I will show up and give every pet the patience, attention, and care they deserve! Over the summer I am working fully from home. Which means I have an open schedule to care for your pets. I am open from morning to night. I can do daily visits, weekly visits, and more. When house sitting for your pets, I prioritize a respectful and responsible approach. I value clear boundaries in my own life, so I make it a point to treat your home and privacy with that same high level of integrity. I’m fully open to your specific rules and feedback, and I’ll keep you connected with consistent updates so you never have to wonder how things are going.

After she took such good care of my cats the last time I went out of town, I was very happy and relieved to be able to hire Alexandra again. She takes such good care of my kitties and is very sweet with them, and I feel totally comfortable knowing I don't have to worry about them when she's there. Highly, highly recommend. ❤️

Alicia was beyond fantastic! 20 out of 10! My cat was happy, relaxed and looked after. Alicia played with him, spent some quality time and made sure his routine was not interrupted. I especially enjoyed the daily photos and short videos of my cat! I m definitely rebooking her for my next trips :) thank you, Alicia!

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with 15 years of experience caring for my own dog and 12 years of dog-sitting for friends and neighbors. I treat every dog as if they were my own, providing loving, dependable care tailored to their individual needs. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, including administering medications, special diets and subcutaneous fluids, and understand the extra patience and attention they may require. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away! I work remotely from home and have a very flexible schedule most days of the week. I'm available to walk the dog at least 4 times a day and take care of all additional needs throughout the day. I care for pets in a client's home exactly to the owner's specifications. I follow the same schedule/routine that the dog is used to, so they can easily adjust to my presence.

Nicole was AMAZING! She not only accommodated a very last minute request due to a family emergency with our originally booked Rover but she was hands down the best one we have had yet! She is kind, communicative, and took such GREAT care of our home and our boy! Normally he is stressed when we get home from a trip but this time I think he was disappointed when we got home and spoiled all his fun LOL! We will definitely use Nicole again.

I will DEFINITELY use Josiah as often as possible! He followed all my instructions and my dog absolutely loved him. My beagle suffers from separation anxiety, and it's hard to find someone who not only compassionately understands his needs, but also with whom my dog feels comfortable and secure! When I arrived home, my dog was sleeping at Josiah's side. I think I finally found a perfect match!

Tony did a phenomenal job with our two 95 pound dogs. They take a long time warming up to new people and he handled it so well! On top of doing great with the dogs, he was also just a very easy going, nice guy! We are very happy to have had Tony watch our dogs and will definitely do so again. We highly recommend him! Thank you Tony!!!

Ashlee has stayed with my puppies before and is wonderful. Took out the trash and recycling bins even though I forget to ask her. She also washed her sheets and made the bed. Wow! And all that aside, she's great with my rather rambunctious puppies. She's definitely a sweetie and a keeper, as the pups love her, too.

We have been with Alicia for almost 2 years and it’s always great to have such caring cat sitter. Mr Kot is getting older and his routine changes due to his health issues and moods. Alicia are always flexible to adjust to new care requests. They are super attentive to my cat’s needs.

Carolyn took great care of our dog Bailey while staying in our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was very thoughtful about keeping us in the loop—sending updates and photos that reassured us everything was going smoothly. Bailey is an older pup who needs medication and a little extra TLC, and Carolyn handled his routine with ease and genuine care. It meant a lot to us to know he was comfortable and well looked after while we were out of the country. We truly appreciated Carolyn’s reliability and attentiveness, and we would gladly have her stay with Bailey again. Highly recommend!

Autumn did a great job with both dogs for the week we were gone. The dogs were both happy and the house very tidy and clean. She gave good updates and pictures during the week. I am looking forward to having her stay with the dogs again. We have a lab and a senior 18 year old Pomeranian mix. She was able to take of both of them and give the lab walks daily. I highly recommend her!
