About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life. While this is my first time pet sitting professionally, I’m very comfortable with animals and take their care seriously. I have experience trimming cat claws, and I’m confident handling both playful and shy pets with patience and care. You can trust me to treat your furry family members like my own! I work remotely from home M - T & Th - Friday. I’m free on the weekends. I am happy to stop by to check in with your pets, feed, walk, and give medications. I am also able to stay your house as well. I treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I follow instructions closely, keep the space clean and secure, and make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I also like to meet with pet owners beforehand to learn about their pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide the best possible care.
“Jordan was incredible and gave us complete comfort during our time away from our fur baby. She sent pictures often to let us see how happy and content he was. When we got home he was all brushed and looked and felt amazing. We will definitely request Jordan again to take care of him again when we are away.”
“I was very nervous about leaving my dog with someone other than family. I found Rover while looking for a place to board her. I was able to find and interview potential sitters. Callie stood out to me as when she come over for the interview she had treats with her and my dog fell in love with her instantly! Although it was difficult for me to leave my dog I felt the love Callie had for dogs and it put my mind at ease. She took many pictures of my baby to show she was fine. She took her for a nice long walk which I know Coco loved. I couldn’t be happier!”
“Emily was fantastic and exactly what I needed after my existing plans fell through. She stepped up with little notice and did a great job of taking care of Daisy for me. Thank you again!”
“Veronica is very pleasant and friendly. She took great care of Marley, taking her for her walks and playing ball with her. She gave her all the attention and affection she needed. Marley loved her and when we came home she showed us her affection for her. We would be happy to have Veronica take care of Marley anytime in the future.”
“Wren is fantastic! He clearly loves animals and connects well with them. He's very friendly and personable with humans, too. :-) Wren is punctual and an excellent communicator who responds very quickly to all forms of contact, plus he follows instructions well and doesn't need a lot of hand-holding to get the job done. What more can you ask for in a pet sitter? We are very happy with his services and look forward to working with him for our future pet care needs.”
“Magdalena stayed for six days to care for and cuddle my dog Nellie and cat Olive. She communicated and provided updates and photos daily. It was reassuring to know she was there to keep my pets safe, fed and loved while we were away. I highly recommend Magdalena for all your pet care needs. I will be booking her again in the future!”
“Collin was great with our dog, Remy! He was very nice, professional, and followed all our directions. Remy is 85 pounds of pure muscle and can be a bit rough, especially with pulling on walks, but Collin handled her like a pro from day one. Super responsive and clearly experienced—highly recommend!”
