“Mochi absolutely loves Bryce. He is so sweet and accommodating to all her needs. Mochi is a bit of a diva and also has terrible separation anxiety, and he handles it all well and in stride. I will definitely be booking Mochi with Bryce again. I feel that he will be an integral part of her life and wellbeing, and he has come her fast friend. I highly recommend Bryce.”


“Ben took care of my two young kittens while I was away. He was super friendly, reliable, and responsive. He went above and beyond with caring for the kitties and tidying up my home. Will definitely contact him again for future pet sitting.”


“Breanna arrived on time and most importantly connected with me even before the visit. She sent pictures and even a video of Gigi which was great. she was very aware of Gigis behavior being that it was her first time greeting her , was patient and very attentive .”



“It was our first time leaving, Daphne, our cat alone for a weekend and we were apprehensive in leaving her with a sitter. Patricia took the time to come to our house and meet Daphne. When it came time to leave for our trip Patricia made sure to send us a whole bunch of pictures of her and Daphne playing and having a good time. Patricia made our first experience using Rover effortless and made us feel comfortable while we enjoyed our weekend. We will be sure to check if Patricia is available next time we book a trip.”


“Bonnie was so great watching my cat! I will absolutely be rebooking, especially with how much my cat liked her. She also kept in touch and sent the cutest pics throughout my trip:)”



About: I worked for Petco for a little more than four years, worked at a dog resort for over a year, and have had my Shihtzu since she was a puppy (now 14), so I am experienced working with many types of dogs. Aside from walking your dog, if needed I am willing to do basic grooming such as baths and brushing (I can also clip nails if need be, but please let me know if your dog has problems with any of that). Other than medical treatments 3 days a week, I am available days and night. The treatments are in the early morning, so it'll be fine. Your pet will stay with me in my room to relax, eat/drink, or have playtime unless we're taking walks or going to the park to play.

“We are so very grateful for Olivia’s care of our senior dog. She came to meet him and we had a good feeling about her right away. She has been punctual with her visits, quick to respond to any communication from us, and thorough with her reports of her time with our boy. We look forward to continued visits from Olivia, and our pup does too.”

“Kia was great. I was able to go away for an extended work trip without worrying about my boys. I came home to happy well-fed cats. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone.”


About: Experienced and compassionate, I am a dedicated animal sitter with a passion for providing exceptional care for pets. What sets me apart from other sitters is my specialized skill set, including training puppies and expertise in senior pet care. I excel in establishing a strong foundation for good behavior through puppy training techniques and providing gentle and attentive care for senior animals, managing medications and addressing mobility issues. With a personalized approach, I tailor care routines to meet the unique needs of each animal, ensuring their well-being and happiness. Additionally, I am skilled in understanding and interpreting animal behavior, enabling effective communication and building trust. With training in pet first aid and CPR, I am prepared to handle emergencies and prioritize the safety of all animals under my care. I still have school, so it honestly just depends on after 4. After 4 I’m free for the rest if the day, and i need something to do with the rest of my time, and given i have not much better to do i’d prefer to take care and watch over animals! When caring for pets, whether in my own home or at a client's residence, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for them. In my home, I provide a designated space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I ensure that this area is clean, secure, and equipped with the necessary essentials such as bedding, toys, and food/water bowls. Additionally, I maintain a regular feeding schedule to meet their dietary needs. Exercise and playtime are also integral parts of my care routine, as I engage pets in stimulating activities tailored to their energy levels and preferences. If caring for pets in a client's home, I ensure to follow any specific instructions provided, replicating their familiar environment as closely as possible. I make it a point to provide ample affection, attention, and companionship to keep pets happy and emotionally fulfilled during my care sessions. Overall, my approach to pet care revolves around providing a nurturing and loving environment that meets the individual needs of each furry friend.

“Robyn is THE BEST!! I met her a little over a year ago when she took care of my senior pup (and she did an amazing job and alleviated all of my anxieties!), and now she’s back for my new pup! My new pup is a big floppy baby who is growing into his body and learning every day. Robyn was able to easily adapt and take amazing care of my puppy! She played with him and gave him all the snuggles, and knew exactly how to handle him when he got a little overexcited from their playtime. You cannot find a sweeter, kinder, more experienced sitter, or bigger dog lover than Robyn!! We all just absolutely adore her!!!”


About: I’m a dog mom of one dog. I rescued her from Puerto Rico a few years ago. I’ve also assisted in transporting dogs from Puerto Rico to the states. We have an active life and enjoy hiking. I will provide fun and activities for your dog. I can come to your house or the dog comes to my house. If you feel more comfortable with just your dog at my house that can be arranged. I know how some dogs sometimes prefer to be the only pet at home. I currently work at home and available all day. I can provide the constant attention your dog will need. I have a fenced in yard. I will provide multiple walks throughout the day. I can dog sit at your house or my house. I have plenty of parks nearby for walks. There’s also hiking trails nearby. I offer dog baths for an additional fee if interested.

About: I work from home and love spending time with animals. Cats and dogs alike. I grew up with them and have had many of my own throughout the years that have given me a ton of experience handling lots of different situations and pet personalities. All sizes, breeds and training levels are fine. Your pet will absolutely be my top priority and I'll ensure they're well taken care of in every way needed. If you're particular about their food, environment, etc. I completely understand!! They're our babies and they deserve the best we can give them no matter what it takes. I work remotely with a mostly flexible schedule so multiple walks and potty breaks throughout the day, early mornings or late nights aren't a problem. I have spent years taking care of animals and know how to give medications, how to handle a variety of behaviors, which foods and plants are toxic, and my first priority will always be your pets safety. Before you leave, I will ensure vet information is clear and readily available, I will ask about special diet considerations, allergies, stressors, habits and any issues that could come up. I have my own transportation and will be extremely clear and responsive should anything ever happen. Additionally, my communication style is focused on trust, transparency and openness. I want to make sure you have full peace of mind and all updates will be easily matched to your needs - whether it is daily or hourly updates to be sure that you feel no hesitation about leaving your furry friends in my care.
