“It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience! Ericka sent regular pics and updates. When we got home our dog was happy and content. When we’ve had to use something more like daycare in the past, he just gets really stressed and barely eats. We will be using rover again in the future for sure.”
“CK was great with my dog and cat, and very communicative! He was even able to come back and check on the animals later than planned when we were delayed coming home. Would definitely book again!”
“We’ve used Sydney as a pet sitter 3 times now. She’s been wonderful every time. She takes great care of our pets and home. She provides excellent updates throughout our trip. She is great at what she does and I look forward to booking her again for future trips!”

“Regan is great! She was super communicative and made sure all was well with our senior diabetic cat who needs shots twice a day and our hyper young cattle dog. Very grateful for her!”
About: I've cared for various kinds of pets over my whole life and at one point was able to become an AKC trained dog trainer! I've since changed jobs to a patient sitter at a nearby hospital and miss the new animals being in my life. I'd love to get a chance to meet your pets and help care for them! I work 3 inconsistent days from either 630am-pm or 630pm-am throughout the week but can make changes as needed to work up to 3 days a week for a client outside of that! I feel that all pets have a wide range of personalities and needs but the important thing is to work with them to achieve their physical and emotional needs! I have 2 cats with vastly different attitudes and I make sure to tailor my care for them in specific ways like being a safety person for my cat while she's eating or training my partners cat to ask for attention and treats more politely. When it comes to dogs I have a training in positive reinforcement and dog behaviors and will try to engage with breed specific enrichment on top of whatever schedule the pet parents have for their dog.
“There are not enough words to explain how amazing and truly incredible Heather is!!! We have 4 dogs with 4 different personalities and needs. It was instant love for her by them! It would be your dogs loss if you don’t use her services! She’s an amazing person and true dog lover!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 9 years old and can’t imagine life without them. From volunteering at shelters to pet sitting, walking, and fostering, animals have always been a huge part of my world. Now at 28, I bring over 19 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments including seniors and pets who need special care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and house sitting. I’m comfortable administering medications including injections, and I’ve supported pets recovering from illness or surgery. I’ve also helped with basic training and behavior support. As a licensed social worker, I bring an extra level of responsibility, trustworthiness, and calm presence to the pets and families I work with. My schedule is flexible thanks to my part-time work and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s unique needs and routine. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need a helping hand, I’d love to be your go-to pet care person. I treat every animal like family because they are. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I take time to get to know each animal’s personality and needs so I can provide personalized care that feels familiar and stress-free. In your home, I make sure your pet stays on their usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I keep their environment clean, cozy, and calm, and I always respect your space and preferences. I provide lots of love, attention, and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 11 years old. I have two dogs of my own and have grown up around a lot of animals. I have lots of experience cat-sitting and dog-sitting/walking for neighbors and family members throughout the years. I'm working full-time but am working remotely from home and have a flexible schedule. I'm available for all of your pet related needs during lunchtime or after-work hours on weekdays. I will do my best to make sure that your pet is comfortable and happy at your home when I come in to visit/walk them. Refreshing the food, water, and anything else as needed.
“We spent a week away while Gianna stayed with Dolly. She was lovely, responsible, and asked great questions before we left. She left our house in great shape and Dolly seemed very happy and cared for when we got home.”
“Olivia G. provided an awesome house-sitting experience for my fur babies! They loved her a lot and she took really great care of them and went above and beyond. She was also very communicative and provided me with lots of updates. We will definitely be booking again with Olivia!”
About: I have 4 dogs and have taken care of 2 of them since they were puppies. I got my first dog in 5th grade as a gift and it was my responsibility to take care of her. Then I got my second dog when I was in 9th grade and I have taken care of both of them since. I take care of my dogs daily by feeding them, taking them out, and for walks. I also play with them and make sure that they have what they need. I am able to accommodate for what each dog and their owner needs and I can let them out or take them on walks if needed.

“Michael has watched both of my dogs each time I travel for 3-10 days. I am always comfortable knowing they are in good hands and will be walked, fed and played with while I am away.

I would highly recommend him to any friends, families and even strangers if they are looking for a trustworthy and responsible caretaker.”

Lindsey H.
“Lindsey is the ultimate pet lover. From the largest dog to the smallest kitten, there is no pet that Lindsey will not treat like her own. She will get down on the floor and play with them, take them for long walks or snuggle with them for hours. Lindsey is also very careful and mindful of the pets surroundings and owners property, and makes sure that everything is in its place and in working order. If you want your pet to be treated like you would treat them, Lindsey is your person!”
Rachel M.
“Rachel has dog sat both of my dogs for several years. She is great with them! On top of just walking them, she has done several overnights and each time it's a relief knowing my dogs are in good hands. She is attentive to their needs and follows through with any special requests I have for my dogs. She also will communicate frequent updates on how the dogs are doing while I'm away. I especially enjoy the pictures she'll send of them during their walks, playtime, etc. Rachel is a huge animal lover and it carries over to her care of my dogs. I highly recommend Rachel and will continue to use her help myself.”

Isabel D.
“I’ve known Isabel for years, and she has always been very caring and passionate for any animal. For a long time she has helped her grandparents take care of their dog, and she will always rave about what she did that day. It’s clear to see in those moments how much she loves taking care of pets, and I have no doubt she’d be a fantastic fit for anyone who needs help caregiving their own pets.”
