“Winnie loves her walks with Amanda! Amanda has been wonderful, great communication and always shares cute pictures. She’s been able to adjust schedule as needed. Highly recommend!”


“Lindy was a life-saver caring for our elder dog. She walked Maggie in the rain, double checked on other coverage, and sent photos of each visit. She is a very responsible caregiver and I could tell that Maggie felt very comfortable with her. I had several people checking in on Maggie due to scheduling conflicts and Lindy was supposed to be a "fill in" for us. I totally messed up the schedule and Lindy graciously covered my gaps. She even left me a "schedule template" I can use next time so I don't make errors. Next time I need someone to care for Maggie, I'll hire Lindy for the entire week if she's available. Highly recommended!”

I treat your pet and house as my own to make sure everybody is as comfortable as they can be. I’m comfortable with special cases and behavioral issues.

“Nick has taken such good care of my dog, I appreciate the notes of how he's doing. Nick always let me know if he saw any change in behavior or wellness and is quick to respond to my questions.”


About: I’ve loved animals since before I could walk and I’ve spent a lifetime caring for them. Having worked for the CASPCA I gained a tremendous amount of knowledge about what it means for our pets to truly thrive and what they need to lead happy healthy lives. Our family treats your pet like they’re our own and make him/her feel right at home. They will spend their days with tons of enrichment activities; daily walks, tons of play time and endless snuggles if they’ll let me and so much more. This is my passion, loving animals and helping people. What more could you ask for? I would absolutely love a chance to chat with you and answer any questions you have. I’m a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to care for your pets during the day/at night just as you would if you were home! I can adjust our schedule to fit your pets needs so they feel right at home and stay on routine. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for your furry friend to play and two active pups who love a play date with friends. All interactions with your pets and ours will be closely monitored to ensure everyone’s safety. I will get information from you about your preferences and schedule for your pet so I can mirror that while they are staying in our home. I will do everything possible to make your pet happy and comfortable while you are away!

About: I've had dogs my whole life, 6 in total! I currently have a Great Dane/lab mix who is a rescue. We can walk or run your neighborhood or go to a park! We can play fetch in the yard on the nice days or play inside the house on days it's too hot or raining. I can give medicines that are routine or special occurances. I can clean up any accidents left behind so you come home to a clean house after your day at work or away. I can help with training to solidify any tricks or behaviors you're trying to accomplish with your dog! I'll be sure to show your fur baby the same level of love and attention as if they were my own! I work night shift, so I am used to weird hours if needed! I am a runner so I can take your dog with me if they need a little extra exercise! I will treat your dog like they are my own! I will gladly give treats, meals, extra potty breaks, walks, runs, whatever is needed for your pet!

About: Hello, I’m Dani, and I love all animals! I have adopted multiple pets of my own from SPCAs. I personally have owned lots of dogs and cats, a few fish, a hedgehog, a turtle, and hamsters. I believe that every animal deserves lots of love and a caring, warm home! I promise to always give my best to your fur (or non-fur) babies and keep them in good hands while you’re away. It’s important for you and your pet to be comfortable with who is taking care of them. I’m comfortable with all ages and sizes of dogs! I’m pretty strong for a woman and have been able to handle all breeds. I am available on the weekends and weekdays. Mornings and evenings before and after work! I can be flexible and work around both of our schedules to see what fits for us both. I work at a spa and a restaurant so my shifts at both places vary greatly. Weekends are usually a 9am-5pm, but weekday shifts are typically no longer than 6 hours. Pets are always in the best care with me. My own pets even sleep with me and I love pet cuddles! I can be flexible to do whatever you need me to do! I can feed, water, walk, play, and bathe your dog! I’d love to become besties with your pet! I often times catch myself having full on conversations with them 🤣

About: My passion has always been caring for and loving animals. I will treat yours as if they were my own and understand that you are allowing someone you don't yet know, to care for your loved ones. I have always been a dog owner and my fur-babies are my kids. I have three now, a German Shepherd, a German Shepherd mix, and Doberman, all will be turning two next year. I have been enjoying fostering puppies through CASPCA these past several months, as well I volunteered for them as a teenager. Over the years I have very successfully cared for friends and family's pets while they were away on business or vacation. I promise to be the absolute best caregiver I can be for your fur-babies!

About: I've had pets all my life. From big dogs, to tiny dogs, to stray cats having kittens under my shed. I even had a hedgehog when I was in college (the first time). I am currently enrolled at BRCC to become a Veterinarian Technician. I have worked in wildlife rehabilitation as well. In doing this I have been lucky enough to gain experience with various species of animals, wound care, rescue and release. My husband and I just welcomed our second baby in Spring 2025 and we have a toddler so this has limited my pet sitting availability. I’m currently only doing drop in visits close to home. Please reach out with any questions. I have basically no traveling plans for the summer. I do work in town as a bartender, but it’s limited to one or two nights a week. When I’m not there I’m with my sons, but I am pretty flexible! Just shoot me a text and we can always work something out. My yard is easily escapable so I will always have your doggies on a leash to keep them safe. My two tiny hounds will gladly help me keep them company and entertained when staying at my place!

About: I’ve had furry companions since the day I was born and couldn’t imagine life without them now. I’ve had cats, dogs amongst many other species of animals. I have nothing but fun and love to offer your furry friends in their very own home! Giving animals love and attention is my passion and brings me enormous joy! I am super reliable, flexible and trustworthy. I am super excited to start this new adventure with Rover. Have comfort in knowing your pets are in the best hands possible. I have many referrals if you need them. I am grateful to you for giving me the opportunity to serve you and your furry family! Thank you so much for considering me to care for your precious family members. I currently am not working outside of the home therefore I am typically available to care for your fur families needs at any given time. I have 4 kitties who are rescues and are not used to having dogs around and I wouldn’t want to cause anymore stress or trauma to my precious furry family.

Susan P.
“Susan is , quite simply, the most incredible pet sitter you will ever find. I hardly know how to begin to describe her pet sitting abilities. She has taken care of my dogs for years--sometimes even on short notice, When I first got her to dog sit, I had two very easy, laid back dogs- an old Lab and an old Plott Hound. After they were gone I got a Pitt Bull Mix ( also very easy) and a Malinois mix who is the most high maintenance, high energy dog I have ever had. Susan was a trooper from day one --throwing frisbee, going for walks, taking her for rides, and field trips to Lowes--and of course, loving her. Both dogs adore her---and she them. I never have to be concerned about anything when I leave them with her. She follows feeding and outing routines scrupulously. She goes beyond what any other dog sitter would do, including filling in holes that the PB mix dug in the back yard! She sends me pictures of the dogs playing and evening pictures of them in quiet repose. And did I mention, she's also good with cats! I can't say enough good things about Susan and her pet sitting. She will spoil you for ever having another sitter! Just like the Allstate Ins. ad, "They're in good hands with Susan"!”


Taylor L.
“I absolutely recommend Taylor as a pet caregiver. She has watched my two crazy dogs many times when I’m traveling or not going to be home for a long period of time. She has had dogs her whole life as well so is extremely experienced. She is a great communicator and loving and caring to the animals she watches. I highly recommend her and will continue to have her watch my pets.”

Tamara is honest, dependable, kind, and follows directions well! She will care for your pet when you need her to and how you need need her to.

Lydia J.
“Lydia is extremely responsible and amazing with dogs! She recently helped me when I was in a pinch- our pet sitting situation fell through. She was happy to come over to our house to take care of our small dog who isn’t good with other animals or pet kennels. I left her a few notes and hid a key and the whole experience was easy and great- she even sent me a video of our dog playing! Would 100% recommend her services.”


Katie F.
“Katie is absolutely amazing! She has cared for my crazy little dog Maddy so many times, and has somehow been able to keep her calm which can even be difficult for me to do at times! My dog can be very specific with her needs, and Katie has listened to my instructions and also had a great intuition when it comes to Maddy which not everyone has shown. She has her own dogs too, so being a pet parent is something she brings to every dog she meets, not just her own. You can’t go wrong with Katie!!”


Kim O.
“Kim is a wonderfully responsible person who LOVES animals. She has watched my cats, dogs, bunnies for years. All my animals have fallen in love with her after just a few minutes of interaction, She is very intuitive and knows when animals are not feeling well or may be tired. I would recommend her without question!!!”
