“Lori is my favorite sitter! She is thoughtful, trustworthy, and overall takes great care of my dogs. She was also communicative about my dogs behavior while they were with her, and she was very patient with one of my dogs misbehaving a little. I can rest easy whenever my dogs are with her!”
“Cristina and her family are the best! We have done day care but now have also left our lil man with her for 3 nights while we were out of town. Today we sat talked and our baby was happy and excited to see us and also so happy with where he stayed. She is the only one for our family!!”
“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”
“Monique was such a good sitter for our dog. She updated us daily and sent lots of pictures! She took really good care of our dog who has bad anxiety. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Jessica watched our pup for a week and sent us photo updates! We had a meet and greet for her dog to meet mine and overall went well, she has a nice big yard that our dog enjoys sunbathing in. Thanks for giving our pup a nice comfy place to stay while we were away!”
“I can't thank Melanie enough for taking such wonderful care of Gunny while I was out of town! From her swift response to my initial inquiry to her warm welcome when we arrived, the entire experience was fantastic. Melanie made Gunny feel right at home, and I truly appreciated the daily updates she sent - they gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Her home provided a clean, safe environment where Gunny could relax and enjoy himself. It was so comforting to see how well Gunny got along with Melanie's dog! Always nice to see him make new friends and enjoy some canine companionship during his stay. It was such a pleasant surprise to discover how much Melanie and I have in common! Those connections made me feel even more comfortable leaving Gunny in her care. I would absolutely recommend Melanie to anyone looking for pet care, and I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Melanie, for going above and beyond to make our experience so positive!”
“Araceli was fantastic watching Roxy and Sushi! She kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos, so I always knew how they were doing. Both pups clearly had the best time and came home happy and relaxed. I’ll definitely be booking with her again — highly recommend!”
“Overall, we had a good experience. They were able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Erlinda was quick to respond, her daughter was easy to work with, and our dog was well taken care of. We’re grateful they were able to help us out last minute and would consider using them again.”
“Pilar was wonderful! She kept me updated when I asked about my dogs and she has a heart of gold! When I picked my dogs up they were happy! Pilar has a heart of gold! Highly recommend her!”
“Haylee is a great, caring and dependable sitter. I have used her a few times for my dogs and they have been happy to be with her both times. She provides updates and pictures, they look so happy in pictures. I’m never worried about how they are doing. Truly the best!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Marwa consistently provides exceptional care for Pippa. She communicates clearly, creates a calm and loving environment, and makes every stay stress-free. We always feel confident leaving Pippa with her and highly recommend her services.”
About: Hi! My name is Diana. I am a caring and responsible pet lover living in San Diego. I have experience caring for my own dog and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable. Your pet will receive lots of attention, love, and care in a calm home environment. I welcome small and friendly dogs and will treat them like family. I am home most of the time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can provide regular potty breaks, feeding, playtime, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day. I am available on both weekdays and weekends. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment for pets. I have a fenced yard and always supervise pets carefully. I follow each owner’s feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions. If pets need to be separated for safety or comfort, I have enough space to keep them in separate rooms.
“I cannot recommend Mr. Vipulkumar highly enough as a dog sitter for my beloved Nina! From the moment I entrusted her to his care, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such capable hands. Mr. Vipulkumar's home was incredibly welcoming, and he made sure Nina felt right at home too. He took the time to understand her personality, preferences, and routines, which made a world of difference. It was heartwarming to see how much he genuinely cared for her well-being. Throughout her stay, Mr. Vipulkumar kept me updated with regular videos and pictures. These delightful updates showcased Nina's happy moments—playing in the yard, snugging in her bed, and enjoying walks around the neighborhood. It was a joy to see her so comfortable and content, and it reassured me that she was receiving all the love and attention she deserves. Nina formed a special bond with Mr. Vipulkumar during her time there. His patience and kindness made her feel safe and cherished, and it truly felt like she was part of the family. In summary, Mr. Vipulkumar provided an outstanding experience for Nina, ensuring she felt at home while I was away. If you're looking for a dog sitter who is reliable, caring, and attentive, Mr. Vipulkumar is the perfect choice!”
“Natasha was incredibly attentive to our 8 month old pup and communicated regular updates! I appreciated that she asked how frequently we wanted updates to help set expectations upfront. She made sure our pup was not just well taken care of but engaged and exercised regularly, plus she kept up with training which was a bonus. We even went through travel delays getting home and she was flexible to accommodate the extra time, it was great knowing our dog was taken care of and didn't add to the stress of travel. We would absolutely use Natasha again.”
“Robin was fantastic with my little boy Dexter! I was updated the whole time and the videos she sent of dexter he was comfortable and having fun! Also a bonus is her having a yard for him to play!”
“Our senior dog Lexi had a great few days with Agueda and her family! We appreciated the daily updates and will definitely book with Agueda again next time we're out of town. Thank you!”

“Brandee is the absolute best! She replied to my booking so fast. Eventhough she wasn't available for the entire booking, she actively searched for friends who could help. Other sitters just turned down the request, or didn't reply. We agreed on some days that would work. The request was to care for tiny, sick, shelter kittens. The job was not easy, it involved an application to the animal shelter, wearing full protective gear, coordinating with the foster coordinator, and then caring for sick kittens. She handled it like a pro! She found her way in and worked with the kittens and even sent pictures. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”
“Belinda watched my cat, Bella, for about 3 weeks and she did fantastic! Bella warmed up to her right away. Belinda was great about sending photos and making sure Bella’s food, water, and litter were taken care of. It made me feel much better knowing that there was such a caring person looking after my girl. I’d be happy to book her again.”
“Lynne is my go-to sitter. She takes great care of my kitty and provides her with plenty of love. It is so nice to go away knowing your fur baby is in good hands. I’m sad that I’m leaving the area and hope I find someone half as good to watch my kitty in the future! I highly recommend Lynne, you will not be disappointed.”
About: I've been a cat lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up with cats and today I share my home with three cats, a dog, and a rabbit, so caring for animals is simply part of my everyday life. I have experience with cats of all ages, from tiny kittens to seniors. I also volunteered at the Humane Society's Kitten Nursery, where I helped care for young kittens who needed extra attention and socialization. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or a professional napper, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I can stop by to feed, refresh water, scoop litter boxes, administer lots of pets (if they're interested!), play, and make sure they have company while you're away. I'm also happy to accommodate last-minute requests whenever my schedule allows. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I'll care for your cats as if they were my own—with patience, attention, and plenty of love.
“the most understanding + patient dog sitter we’ve ever encountered. she’s very careful + treats our puppy as though he belongs to her. not only does she go above + beyond with her service, but also goes above + beyond with her attention to detail when it comes to her reports while he’s under her care.”
“Thank you Joanne! We appreciate all your help on such short notice. She was amazing and the pups were happy. Attention to detail and communication were amazing. Will definitely be booking again”
“Caroline was fantastic with my senior cat, Theda. When we met for a meet and greet I explained that I am a bit particular about how Theda’s meals are organized and how to clean her bowls, and Caroline was totally on top of it all. I was away the last two weekends and received daily photos of a happy cat from Caroline while out of town, and when I came back the litter area and kitchen were so clean and tidy. I really appreciate that level of care and attention and I know Theda did too: thank you so much Caroline!”
“My Budgies (Bruce and Ru) just love visits from Marie when I’m away from home. I’m so happy that she’s willing to take the time to “hang out” with them and she always updates me with videos and pics. She’s the best and Bruce and Ru totally agree!”
About: I provide attentive, loving cat care and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and boundaries. Whether your cat is social and playful or prefers their personal space, I take time to earn their trust and help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions, including administering medications and supporting recovery after illness or surgery. I also keep litter boxes clean, fresh water available, and make sure your cat gets the care, patience, and respect they deserve.
About: I provide drop-in care for cats, including feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and general check-ins to make sure they are safe while you are away. While I have not owned cats myself, I have experience caring for cats through drop-in visits for friends and family. I understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level, so I always take a calm and patient approach, allowing them to warm up at their own pace. I focus on making sure they are well cared for and that their routine stays consistent while you’re gone. 💗🐾
About: I’ve taken care of my cat Yuki for almost 3 years now! I’ve had him since he was a kitten and have loved him more each day! I understand the importance of patience and respecting boundaries when it comes to cats, so I’ll make sure to adapt to your cat’s style! I’ve looked after my brother’s cat since she was a kitten as well, and have taken care of other multiple feline friends over the years. Whether it’s offering them a snack, playtime, a snuggle, or their space, I’m here to help!
About: Cats have held a special place in my heart for the past 12 years, and I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. My wife and I recently said goodbye to our beloved senior cat after many wonderful years together. Caring for him taught me the importance of patience, consistency, compassion, and attentive care, especially as pets grow older. In addition to caring for our own cat, we’ve welcomed foster cats into our home for weeks at a time, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they waited for their forever families. I’ve also cared for the cats of family and friends, making sure they’re fed, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, playtime if they want it, and plenty of affection on their own terms. If medication is part of your cat’s routine, I’m happy to follow your instructions carefully. I’ll be your cat’s primary caregiver and will provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your feline family member is doing. My wife is also a wonderful animal lover who enjoys giving cats extra affection and attention, creating a warm and welcoming home environment. If your cat prefers a quieter setting, we have a secure, private room where they can relax and have their own space away from our beagles. Whether your cat is social, shy, playful, or simply enjoys a peaceful nap, we’ll do everything we can to make them feel safe, comfortable, and at home.
“We chose Jiaqi again.. our little guy seems to enjoy himself while he’s there. Jiaqi is great with updates and pictures. We totally trust her with him and she seems to enjoy his company as well. 😊😊”
About: Ever since I was young, my love for animals has been unwavering, and that passion continues to define me as an adult. I've always been the go-to person among my family and friends whenever they needed a pet sitter or extra assistance. It wasn't until recently, when a friend referred me to Rover, that I decided to officially extend my help beyond my immediate circle. I do work a full time job, although I work remote and my job is very flexible I’m more focused on Rover on weekends, Friday through Sunday as of right now. I am able to host your pet. I live in a pet friendly apartment. I’m a homebody that enjoys time out in nature. Pet is able to roam comfortably in my home, but if you’d like to use a crate for training purposes that’s ok too.
About: I’ve boarded two dogs before at my own place and I have cat sat at a few owners houses before. I’m responsible and will communicate when I check in on your loved pets. As tax, I will always send a photo of your pet as well every time I check in on them and truly enjoy spending some playtime with them as well. I live by a little lake that’s great for walks too! I currently am flexible to make time to care for your furry family members. Happy to see photos and do a chat before deciding if this may be a good fit! I will make time and open for cuddles if you allow your pet bed/couch time. But if you don’t like that, I can reinforce it’s not okay while on you’re away. With your permission, I let the pets enjoy a Netflix experience by putting on YouTube videos of animal footage they might enjoy.
“Gao was an amazing fit for my need(s) for BearBear. Reading her profile was the main reason I selected her. She was very knowledgeable, passionate, and handled BearBear with the care he needed; above and beyond (medicine doses, nail trim, etc.). Her communication, availability and empathy was exactly what I needed. Thank you!”
About: I’ve lived on a farm since I was 11. I’ve taken care of dogs and puppies along with many other animals. I raised multiple litters of newborn puppies and their mothers. I’ve cared for them in many ways. I’ve also worked at a doggy day care and boarding facility and have experience with taking care of many dogs of different sizes and ages. I’m walking dogs and doing dog sitting as a side job now while I attend school. I assure you I have plenty of experience taking care of these wonderful fur babies. I’m currently going to school. I take night classes and need something that is flexible with my schedule. I already walk dogs and do dog sitting through another app called wag. It’s perfect for me cause I can focus on school without being worried about being tied down to a schedule since I’m able to make my own schedule. I also need more services so I thought doing 2 apps at a time might bring more income. I let them out every 2-4 hours to go potty or as needed or instructed my owner. I feed them based off their eating schedule and how many time a day they eat. I take them out for walks and to play with them outside frequently. If the parent need me to do anything else for their pups I’m more than happy to do so.

“I recommend Lori as a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! My dog is strong and energetic, and Lori knew how to manage him, and was very kind and patient. She gave him lots of needed attention and kept me updated. I appreciate Lori so much for making me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands!”
“My dog Nyla is in such good care with Maria! Maria updates me on all the adventures my dog has through the day. I would highly recommend her to care for your pet. We are a recurring client. :)”
“PeeP really seemed to enjoy his stay with Holger. We stayed in fairly recent contact and although PeeP tends to have separation anxiety. He showed no signs of it once we left.. I can certainly recommend Holger for any ones fur baby.”
“Agueda was a wonderful sitter and took great care of my pup! She sent updates and photos during the stay. My dog seemed relaxed and comfortable in her space. I absolutely recommend her and hope to see her again in the future!”
About: Pets have always been a big part of my life, and I truly believe pets are family. I’ve spent years caring for the dogs of family, friends, and neighbors. I’ve looked after dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s unique routine and needs. Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with Dalmatians and have spent the past eight years raising two friendly, goofy, and well-socialized rescue beagles with my wife. Together we have also fostered rescue dogs for weeks at a time until they found their forever home. As your sitter, I will be your dog’s primary caregiver. I’ll personally handle walks, feeding, fresh water, medication if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand that every dog has their own routine, energy level, and personality, and I’ll make every effort to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. My wife is also a tremendous animal lover who enjoys spending time with every pet she meets, so your dog will benefit from being in a home with two people who genuinely love animals. While I’ll be responsible for all of your pet’s care, they’ll also receive extra affection and companionship throughout their stay. Our home includes a fully fenced backyard patio, and we live in a safe neighborhood with plenty of green space. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: to treat your pet with the same love, patience, and respect that we’d want for our own. I primarily work from home with a flexible schedule, typically on East Coast business hours. Most weekdays, I’m available beginning around 2:00 PM for dog walks, drop-in visits, playtime, potty breaks, and other pet care needs. On days with a lighter meeting schedule, I’m often able to stop by earlier in the day for a walk or visit before returning to work. I occasionally work onsite once a week, but I typically leave the office between 2:00 and 2:30 PM, allowing me to be available for afternoon and evening care. For boarding and in-home pet sitting, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I will be your pet’s primary caregiver, and because my wife works full-time from home, there is almost always someone at our home to provide companionship, supervision, and peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. Before every booking, I’ll take the time to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, dietary needs, medications, favorite activities, and any special instructions so I can provide care that’s as consistent as possible with what they’re used to at home. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or ours, I’ll be your pet’s primary caregiver. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, fresh water, meals on schedule, potty breaks, and lots of affection and attention. I’ll also provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Our home is clean, safe, and pet-friendly. We have a securely fenced backyard patio and two friendly, well-socialized beagles who enjoy the company of other dogs. For cats or pets that prefer a quieter environment, we also have a secure private room where they can relax in their own space away from our dogs if needed. I understand that every pet is unique. Some love adventure and play, while others simply want a calm environment and a predictable routine. I’ll always respect your pet’s individual personality and comfort level and care for them with the same patience, compassion, and attention that I give my own animals. For the health and safety of all pets in our home, I ask that visiting dogs and cats be up to date on their vaccinations and flea/tick prevention.
“Tiancai was wonderful! She helped me with Misha while we were visiting family in San Diego for my Uncle's services. I needed care on the spot, she was available and it worked out great. Tiancai's communication on Misha during her care was awesome and reassuring. Very sweet puppy sitter.”
“I can ALWAYS count on Stacey, she's a wonderful sitter. She genuinely cares about people and loves my dog Conchita. Thank you Stacey and Pumpkin for taking such good care of my furbaby.”
“Melinda is the best!! I’ve taken my pug to her 3 times in the last two weeks and my pug always has a blast. Melinda does so many fun and creative things with the dogs she cares for. My pug is a ball of energy and he comes home really tired when I pick him up (which means he had a lot of fun). Melinda is very good with all types of dogs and it’s very evident that she has a passion for what she does. Highly recommend Melinda!”
“Monique was wonderful! I had a last minute (less than 12 hours) cancellation from my primary dog sitter and Monique was quick to respond. I couldn’t be more grateful. The photos she shared of my dog were lovely and it was clear my pup felt immediately safe and comfortable in her space. I would recommend her 100x!!”
About: My dog is a husky/malamute mix who is the most docile canine I’ve ever known. He can be energetic and playful with dogs of literally all sizes and personalities. I’m a real estate agent and work from home, but wake up very early! We cannot do pickups after 7p so anything late needs to be scheduled next day unless confirmed prior to booking. I don’t leave my own dog home for more than 4 hours on a work day by himself but also have a doggie door (when I’m home only), and a large home with hard floors for the pups to roam. I have a fenced yard but keep my dog inside when I’m not at home. I’ve got a doggie cam and check in (and talk) to my dog frequently if I have to be gone!
About: As a full-time retired “dog grandpa,” I’ve spent over 50 years caring for dogs of every shape, size, and personality. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for decades to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pups just like my own. I currently share my home with a friendly spaniel mix who loves making new friends and helps create a warm, social atmosphere for visiting dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and happiest when I’m surrounded by wagging tails. From energetic youngsters to sweet seniors, I know how to keep each dog comfortable, confident, and cared for. Now that I’m fully retired, caring for pets has become one of the most enjoyable parts of my day. I’m home most of the time, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks, and peaceful company throughout the day. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays, and my open schedule allows me to keep your pet’s routine steady morning strolls, afternoon cuddles, or extra playtime, whatever they need. My home is set up with pets in mind. I have a secure fenced backyard with a large pet door so dogs can safely go in and out for fresh air and play. My spaniel mix is friendly and loves having canine company. We take daily walks to nearby parks, perfect for sniffing, exploring, and stretching those legs. Inside the house, pets are welcome to relax wherever they feel comfortable and yes, that includes the furniture. I provide a calm, supervised, and cozy environment, and I’m experienced with crates, medications, special diets, and supporting dogs with different energy levels or routines. Your dog will be treated like a cherished family member with all the gentle attention, structure, and warmth you’d expect from a loving retired grandpa.

“I would highly recommend Vanessa for daycare. She was flexible and could accommodate us last minute, which I am very grateful for! She was patient with my dog Kirby, who seemed well-cared for, happy, and tired when I picked her up. Thank you very much, Vanessa!”
“Thu and her family took such great care of our pup for the day. She was super communicative, kind and reliable. Our girl was so well cared for. We look forward to working with Thu again in the future!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a little girl. I have always had dogs around me. When I was a teen, I started dog sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood. This is something my dad and I would do together. As an adult, I am my friends’ and family’s go to person when it comes to help them with their pets. They will always call me when they go on vacations and need help. I am looking forward to expand my network of people I can help 🙂. Bonus is my own sweet little lady, Olive, who loves all dogs! She would be so happy to have new friends! I work from home part time. I am always home, and only go in and out to get my son from school. I walk my dog four times per day. Two of these four times per day are longer walks in the neighborhood or to the park. I keep dogs on the leash at all time when we are outside. I have a fenced backyard where they can be outside and lay in the sun, and can’t escape. They also have access to water and food as required by the owner. My dog Olive is super friendly, and loves being around other dogs. She is around 15 lbs. I have a cat who is friendly but does not want to do much with other dogs. He mostly stays away.
“Rebecca was a great dog sitter! I dropped off my dog with her for the day while I was out of town and she was super communicative and incredibly accommodating. My dog came home happy and tired after a great day with her!”

About: Although I have no official skills and training...yet, but I grew up caring for animals. For 18 years I lived on a small farm in Michigan where we raised chickens, rabbits, goats, alpacas, dogs, and cats. These animals were my beloved pets and would get shown at the county fair every summer. Since moving away I have accumulated three cats of my own. As I continue to figure things out and gain experience I can promise that all pets under my care will be well cared for, loved, and that all owners will receive top notch communication. I have just separated from the Navy and am unable to get another job due to some traveling I have planned over the next couple months. I am free all day pretty much any day! I do not offer sitting or boarding in my home due to my cats not appreciating outsiders, but I am more than happy to go to your house and do whatever is needed!
“Zach was absolutely incredible! He took such good care of my doggo while we were away for a few days! He made sure he was loved on and maintained (brushed him and then even swept the house). He gave me consistent updates and sent lots of pictures! A very kind and thoughtful caregiver! Will definitely be using him again if/when we go away next!”
About: Having 4+ years of volunteering at my animal shelter has given me the experience to handle various kinds of dogs and their personality traits. I primarily bring them out in the play yards to get their daily exercise so to do this outside the shelter would be like my ideal day of never ending fun. On my free-time I like to research dog breeds and learn anything dog-related. I also love to run my dog blog on instagram. I would like to commit at least 3 days of full-time availability. Nighttime hours (6-11PM) is probably my preferred time because I'm almost always available then. Dogs deserve the exercise and love they need while their owners are away and I'll do my best to make make sure they get it. My house-sitting routine is set to ensure your pet receives consistent, attentive care throughout the day. On weekdays, I provide morning care before heading to work (which begins at 8:00 AM in Chula Vista). Depending on my route, I’m typically available again between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM. After work, I return to spend a few hours feeding, caring for, and giving your pet plenty of attention. I then briefly check in on my own pets before coming back to your home for the evening and overnight care. On weekends, I have greater flexibility. I am available every Saturday and every other Sunday, allowing me to dedicate even more time and attention to your pet’s needs. Caring for your pet is both a joy and a responsibility I take seriously. While you’re away, they’ll be treated like one of my own—with lots of love, attention, and care. I like to follow a detailed care sheet outlining your pet’s usual routine so I can mirror it as closely as possible, helping them feel comfortable and at ease in your absence. You can also expect plenty of adorable updates, and I’m always available if you or I have any questions along the way.

About: Hello! I’m a Zoology student working toward becoming a veterinarian and a Military Conservation Agent veteran. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, including emergency care and working alongside veterinarians, and I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. With my background, I can also provide informed medical guidance when needed. I’m especially a great fit if your dog needs extra care—such as medical support or recovery monitoring. I can administer medications, closely track their condition, and offer cross-border vet services to Mexico, either accompanying you or independently taking your dog for care. My goal is to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. As a full-time student, I work around my class schedule and maintain a high level of flexibility. My only fixed commitments are my lab sessions, but outside of those times, I can adjust my availability to fit your needs, including early mornings, evenings, and most daytime hours. I have professional experience handling high-drive even dangerous animals, including wolfdogs and wildlife. I know how to manage strong breeds safely and calmly. I respect your home and property. I use professional handling techniques to ensure safety during walks, and I am fully capable of providing basic medical care and behavioral support if any issues arise during my stay."
“One of our dogs is very wary of new people and takes a long time to warm up to them. Not with Kali. She met him once before we left on vacation. Her first walk it took him 2 blocks to chill out. After that he was so stoked to see her and leave the house with her. Dogs came back so happy and fully exercised. Highly recommend. Will 100% use her again.”
About: I’ve lived and cared for animals since I was young. My dad is a veterinarian, so I’ve had the opportunity to care for dogs, cats, and other animals my whole life! I had my dog for 15 beautiful years and went through all the ups and downs of a dog parent. I administered her medication and provided as many accommodations and love she needed. Currently, I have one medium haired cat who is shy but incredibly sweet and friendly. I’ve had him since he was a kitten and has adjusted to our own little routine. I know how difficult it can be to leave a furry friend behind, so I’m here to relieve any stress you may have and provide as much comfort and care to your loved one! I currently work part-time so I have a flexible schedule. I’m a grad student, so if I’m not at work or class, I’m usually home hanging out with my cat :) My cat is very low maintenance and is used to dogs but if you prefer for him to be separated from your furry friend I can definitely make sure they are in different rooms! My apartment is pet friendly and has a grass area right upfront as well as a fenced yard they can go out to!

“Vanessa is absolutely amazing. She is extremely accommodating and has not once said no to helping me out even if it’s a few hours before. She takes the best care of my puppy Lucy and always goes above and beyond for her walks as well as sending me the cutest pictures during. I highly recommend her to anyone nearby!!!!”

About: I go beyond just basic pet sitting! With experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and animals with special needs, I tailor my approach to each pet’s unique personality.

About: I’ve lived on a farm since I was 11. I’ve taken care of dogs and puppies along with many other animals. I raised multiple litters of newborn puppies and their mothers. I’ve cared for them in many ways. I’ve also worked at a doggy day care and boarding facility and have experience with taking care of many dogs of different sizes and ages. I’m walking dogs and doing dog sitting as a side job now while I attend school. I assure you I have plenty of experience taking care of these wonderful fur babies. I’m currently going to school. I take night classes and need something that is flexible with my schedule. I already walk dogs and do dog sitting through another app called wag. It’s perfect for me cause I can focus on school without being worried about being tied down to a schedule since I’m able to make my own schedule. I also need more services so I thought doing 2 apps at a time might bring more income. I let them out every 2-4 hours to go potty or as needed or instructed my owner. I feed them based off their eating schedule and how many time a day they eat. I take them out for walks and to play with them outside frequently. If the parent need me to do anything else for their pups I’m more than happy to do so.

“Lori is my favorite sitter! She is thoughtful, trustworthy, and overall takes great care of my dogs. She was also communicative about my dogs behavior while they were with her, and she was very patient with one of my dogs misbehaving a little. I can rest easy whenever my dogs are with her!”
“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”
“Monique was such a good sitter for our dog. She updated us daily and sent lots of pictures! She took really good care of our dog who has bad anxiety. We will definitely be using her again!”

“I can't thank Melanie enough for taking such wonderful care of Gunny while I was out of town! From her swift response to my initial inquiry to her warm welcome when we arrived, the entire experience was fantastic. Melanie made Gunny feel right at home, and I truly appreciated the daily updates she sent - they gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Her home provided a clean, safe environment where Gunny could relax and enjoy himself. It was so comforting to see how well Gunny got along with Melanie's dog! Always nice to see him make new friends and enjoy some canine companionship during his stay. It was such a pleasant surprise to discover how much Melanie and I have in common! Those connections made me feel even more comfortable leaving Gunny in her care. I would absolutely recommend Melanie to anyone looking for pet care, and I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Melanie, for going above and beyond to make our experience so positive!”
“Overall, we had a good experience. They were able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Erlinda was quick to respond, her daughter was easy to work with, and our dog was well taken care of. We’re grateful they were able to help us out last minute and would consider using them again.”
“Natasha was incredibly attentive to our 8 month old pup and communicated regular updates! I appreciated that she asked how frequently we wanted updates to help set expectations upfront. She made sure our pup was not just well taken care of but engaged and exercised regularly, plus she kept up with training which was a bonus. We even went through travel delays getting home and she was flexible to accommodate the extra time, it was great knowing our dog was taken care of and didn't add to the stress of travel. We would absolutely use Natasha again.”

About: I’ve cared for many pets over the years for family and friends, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’m very attentive and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I follow routines closely, whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just giving them attention and companionship. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they’re happy, clean, and cared for. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, so pet sitting fits easily into my daily routine. I’m able to be available most times of the day, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Since my schedule isn’t packed, I can focus on making sure each pet is comfortable, safe, and well taken care of while their owners are away. When I’m caring for pets at home, I make sure they get plenty of food, fresh water, exercise, and attention throughout the day. I take them on at least two or three walks during the day and make sure they get lots of playtime so they stay active and happy. I also keep their space clean, make sure feeding schedules are followed, and give them plenty of attention so they feel comfortable. At night I make sure they have a safe, comfortable place to sleep and that they’re settled in for the night. In the morning I repeat the routine by checking their food and water, taking them out for a walk, and making sure they start the day happy and well cared for.
“Stacy is amazing. She took such good care of Migo and treated him as if he were her own while I was away. She is kind, professional, and a great communicator. I will definitely be using her in the future!”
“I would definitely be using Jessica for Future bookings. She's nice and pleasant soft spoken and gentle with my cats. Jessica sent such cute pictures of the cats to let me know how they were doing throughout the day. I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a pet sitter”
About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was young. Ever since I was a teenager I enjoyed walking my family, friends, and neighbors’ dogs. I have experience with dogs of all ages and many different breeds I am available to walk, board, or visit your dog all days of the week. I prefer to be notified at least a day in advance so I can properly schedule and prepare to care for your dog. I have a large backyard with clear space for the dogs to around and play. There is open space in the living room for dogs to relax, with room for dog beds or anything else they arrive with. This space is gated off from the rest of the house for safety. There’s enough room to separate the dogs from one another if they need space.
“We have found our fur baby's home away from home!!! After various dog boarding, pet resorts, and other rover sitters we found the prefect match for our German Shepard. Marissa and her son watched after Dexter while we went on a long weekend trip. They were perfect and understood his needs of having company with him at all times. They only watched over our dog and didn't take additional dog owners, which was a requirement for us. Their house is prefect with plenty of room for Dexter to be inside and outside. We met before the scheduled date to meet her dogs and pets and everyone got along. The communication was great also. Marissa sent pictures of Dexter daily and let us know how he was doing at all times. We drive 1 hour to get to her home, but I don't mind the drive as long as Dexter's in good hands. It was tough to find a good match, so we're very happy Dexter has a great home to stay at when we need to go out of town.”
