“Alan and Luis take such great care of our Hiro. He now knows their house and gets so excited in the car when we pull up to the driveway he can barely contain himself. He does still act like a lab puppy, and tends to try to eat everything, but they have always been very patient and understanding with him. We trust them completely to take great care of our boy when we are out of town.”
“Kathryn and Jeremy were great, can't recommend them enough. They were extremely communicative both before Bella's stay and during, updating us with pictures etc throughout the day. The couple are very well versed in dog behavior/needs and asked all the right questions to make us feel confident Bella was going to be well cared for and safe. When we picked Bella up she was very comfortable in their home and was resting with Kathryn and Jeremy. If you are looking for trustworthy couple to watch your pup with love and attention, this is it!”
“Laura was great with our pups! She accommodated our pick up and drop off times and sent lots pic pictures and videos. Her house is very nice and she has a big backyard on a lake. My dogs were so happy and at home with her.”
“Our dog was a rescue and can be timid and nervous around new people and in new places. We have used Maria's services three times and each time our dog is more and more comfortable at her home. It is clear that Maria and her family love dogs and don't mind about some of our dog's quirks! Maria has been flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and accommodated us when we needed to switch up our plans. We will definitely be using her again! ”
“Mylinda was wonderful with Milo! She was very accommodating with my last-minute needs, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in her care. She sent pictures and updates multiple times a day, was very responsive, and handled any unexpected situations really well. Milo seemed happy and well taken care of when I picked him up. I really appreciated how communicative and attentive she was throughout the week and would definitely book with her again!”
“Noel, his wife and son were very attentive to Khloe’s needs even before her arrival. It is obvious that they have passion for what they do and strive to give fur babies the best experience. Khloe thoroughly enjoyed playing in their spacious yard, running thru their fire hydrant sprinkler and lounging on their comfy couch. I received great updates with pictures included. This family offers peace of mind that your fur baby is in the best hands and surrounded by love. We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Contacted James kinda last minute. We met that evening and I dropped my dog off the following night. He must've had fun cause when I picked up up the following evening he was tired from all the playtime. Would definitely use again”
“Lennox came home happy and exhausted. A good sign she had a great time with Wendy and her new friends! I appreciated how quick Wendy was to respond and the great care she gave our pup!”
“If you need a pet sitter - Pauline is your girl!! I can’t thank her enough for hosting my two dogs in her home for the night. I received photos & an update within 30 minutes of dropping them off - & without having to check in myself - which I absolutely loved & appreciated. I then received updates all throughout the day which is exactly what I needed! She was VERY attentive to the dogs, asked about/followed their normal routine & updated me if she sensed anything was wrong or if the dogs seemed uncomfortable (one of them was exhibiting signs of an ear infection). I know my dogs were well taken care of and enjoyed their stay. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and we are so very grateful to Pauline!!!”
“Rosmery was wonderful with our fur baby! I received many pictures and videos of Lana. Her and her family made feel our pup like home! Definitely, we will bring Lana back.”
“Michelle and her husband were great. I was nervous to leave my baby overnight with a stranger but the minute I met them, I felt more comfortable. They are dog people, they updated me constantly, and their process for intake and care is thorough. Bruno not only spent time with them but got to play with other dogs his size - he had a great time. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Loved Jennifer! She was awesome and met me in the park to introduce Cooper to some of the other dogs she was currently watching prior to the stay. She gave regular updates and did a great job with socializing Cooper with other dogs. She is a great photographer and put together an album of the week. Loved her and wouldn’t use any other sitter!”
“Izzy seemed to have a great time here! She loved playing with their dog Madden and another doggie that is a regular there. She stayed there for 6 nights for the first time and they took her to the park and played everyday. They also made them yummy cooked carrot treats and Izzy just loved being there with the other pups. Iz would love to stay again for play days, great doggie friendly home :)”
“Araceli is an amazing pet sitter! Our little guy can be grumpy & challenging at times, but Araceli was so patient & caring with him! We are so thankful to have found someone who understands the quirks of small dogs!!”
“Destini is the best with my dog Zinni! This is my second time boarding my pup with Destini and it won’t be my last. She’s so great about communicating and sending lots of pictures and videos showing how happy my girl is during her stay.”
“Anna was the best sitter for our Doberman/German Shepard mix, Onyx! She watched Onyx for 4 days while we were out of town and did an amazing job at giving updates and sending pictures. Would definitely use her services again and gladly recommend to anyone looking in the future”

“We were confident our cat was in good hands from first meet-and-greet to final checkin. Beyond being a caring and thoughtful cat-sitter; Midas (aka Meredith) is responsible, perceptive, and capable of handling unexpected situations. We enjoyed our vacation even more, knowing that our cat at home was safe and well cared for.”
“Jen was great. She was able to provide care on short notice and adapt for scheduling. Most importantly, she immediately was befriended by my feline & k-9 duo. Really good energy. Would definitely book her again for pet sitting. Thanks.”
About: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my genuine comfort with feline temperaments and health needs. Thanks to my clinic helper and farm background, I am completely confident administering oral medications and injections safely and calmly. I also understand that a clean environment is vital for a cat's well-being, so I am incredibly diligent about deep-cleaning litter boxes, wiping up messes, and keeping their spaces pristine. I focus exclusively on in-home care, ensuring your cat can stay happy, relaxed, and secure in their own territory.
“Hunter was great with our cat, who is usually very shy around new people. She was reliable and kept us up to date with photos etc. Would definitely recommend Hunter.”
About: Friends and family have always trusted me to take care of their furry family members! I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and needs by taking them on walks, feedings, hikes, and just keeping them company. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to fit your care needs! My work schedule alternates between mornings and afternoons, but my evenings are almost always open. I also am around weekend to do overnights and all-day care! I have an older dog at my house who loves to have a lowkey hang out with other dogs. I live in a very dog-friendly, residential neighborhood.
About: I have been cat sitting for over 20 years and have two of my own, brother and sister Monte Cristo and Muffuletta. I provide calm, loving care that respects each cat’s unique personality, whether they’re playful, independent, or a little shy. I make sure your cat’s daily routine stays consistent and that they receive plenty of attention, affection (on their terms!), and care while you’re away. I currently work 3:30 pm to 10:30 pm Wednesday through Saturday. This leaves me with mornings and days open or late night availability if needed. Mail retrieval services available. I’m an attentive cat sitter who understands feline behavior, health, and comfort. I have experience caring for cats of all ages, including shy cats, seniors, and those with special routines. I follow instructions carefully, keep spaces clean, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your cat is in good hands.
“Nora was very attentive during the meet and greet, she asked a lot of great questions. Nora sent adorable pictures of my cat, Tiny, while cat sitting! No complaints. I would book with Nora again!”
“Tara is so sweet and kind to our kitties! She hung out with them and gave them lots of good pets and attention I can tell that she’s spent time there because they seemed calm when I got home. I highly recommend Tara!”
About: I grew up with cats and have always been comfortable caring for them. I understand that every cat has their own personality—some love attention and playtime, while others prefer a calm and quiet environment. I’m patient and respectful of their space, and I make sure they feel safe and comfortable. My experience includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and keeping an eye on their overall wellbeing. I’m happy to follow your cat’s routine so they feel as relaxed as possible while you’re away.
“Olivia did an awesome job ! It's always hard trusting someone to care for your babies but she gave me peace of mind while I was away. My cat warmed up to her right away which made me happy that they had company while I was gone 🥰 she even took the initiative to clean up and always reached out if she had any questions. She was quick to respond, followed all care instructions, and the communication was great! Lots of pics ☺️ I highly recommend her and look forward to having her sit for me again !”
“Jacqueline graciously looked after my cat while I was out of town. She was incredibly nice, responsible, and caring of my pet. I felt entirely comfortable leaving my apartment and furry child in her care. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs pretty much my whole life and always had a dog growing up, so being around pets has always felt natural to me. While I don’t currently have my own dog, taking care of someone else’s dog gives me that same joy and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ve dog sat for multiple people in the past and also help with cat sitting for my neighbor from time to time. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and following each pet’s routine, whether that means burning off energy or enjoying some quiet cuddle time. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well loved while you’re away. I work a 9–5 Monday through Friday, but I’m happy to stop by in the mornings or after work for feeding, walks, or quality hang-out time. I also have no issue staying over during the week if needed. On weekends, I’m fully available and open for business! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to follow all care instructions closely, maintain routines, and make sure pets feel secure and well cared for in their own environment. I’m respectful of your home and keep everything clean and organized while you’re away. Unfortunately, I’m not able to bring pets back to where I live, but I’m more than happy to provide care in your home, including drop-in visits and overnight stays. I believe caring for pets in their familiar space helps reduce stress and keeps them happy and comfortable.
“Nina is very responsible and took great care of my new puppy, Charlotte. She played with her, took her outside gave her a snack and made sure she is left in her enclosed area. Will definitely re-hire!”

“This was our first time using Angela and was very happy with everything! Great communication! Our pup seemed happy and tired after spending the day with Angela! Love the nice fenced in yard.”
“Great baby sitter! Michelle and her family did a great job at taking care of my little yorkie and I feel comfortable having someone to leave my sweet boy with. Highly recommend and I use her for all my baby sitting needs!”
“Our dog Rocky loves to go to Maria’s house. Everyday Rocky runs up the steps and can’t wait to go inside. He has a great time playing with other dogs. Maria is flexible and accommodating. There were nights that we couldn’t pick up Rocky until late and she was always accommodating and flexible. I can tell that she really love dogs! We had a great experience with her and very thankful of her watching Rocky.”
“This was the first time that I used Eric. Eric and his wife were wonderful with Milo. Eric let me know that Milo was doing well and also sent a picture. Milo came home happy and tired. I will definitely use Eric again.”
About: Hi paw friends 🐾 I am somewhat new to Rover but I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have always helped my family and friends care for their animals and I always enjoyed doing it. My husband and I got married four years ago and our little girl is three. It's so amazing to see her interact with the dogs because she gets more comfortable and happier each time. My husband and daughter are my best pet helpers when I am not around. Our family loves dogs and we will eventually get a dog when the time is right, but I love Rover because it’s give me the opportunity to still bond with pups. I truly love being around animals. Our families sometimes come to stay with us with their dogs and I get a crazy burst of happiness every time. Life is just better with a dog around and I would love to care and help with your pups! :) I know it can be tough trusting your animals in others hands but rest assured that your pet will be in great hands with me & I will send plenty of updates and pictures 📸🐾 I currently work part time (every weekend). So I am free to take care of your pups during the week and still on weekends when I’m home. My amazing husband and daughter are my best pet helpers when I am not around. I still offer some services on the weekends. I will care for the pet how the owner(s) want me to care for them. They will always bed fed, hydrated, clean, warm, and the happiest they can be in our home. Our home isn't that big so someone is always around. I am not much of an out-going person, I do have a good amount of friends but they all come to my house since I am the mama of the group :)
“Left my baby for a trial stay. While it was hard to leave him literally crying Katie was so great about assuring me things had calmed down a few minutes later and all was good. I appreciated that peace of mind. Katie was also great about super responsive and timely communication. We would definitely reach out again.”
“Kevin was so patient with Winnie! I really appreciated the pictures and check ins throughout the day, long walks and flexibility with his schedule & mine. I would 100% recommend and will be coming back! His pup is super friendly as well”
“Ziggy had a great time spending the day with Jaylese for doggy daycare! They went on a nice walk and Ziggy came back happy and sleepy. She accepted my request last minute and was a breeze to work with - highly reccomend!”
About: I've taken care of many breeds large and small for my friends and family over the last 20 years. Patience and calming demeanor are key to establishing trust with our fur babies. I work from home with a flexible schedule so my job would not impede on caring for your pet and making sure they are getting enough attention. I currently have two golden doodles that are well mannered and socialized with other dogs. They are shared between my home and their Mom's so they aren't always with me. We're accustomed to multiple walks throughout the day and visit a dog park most days during the week.
“Wonderful experience! Anagha was very communicative before and during Lucy's visit. She sent messages and pictures throughout the day which gave me such peace with leaving our pup with someone new. Hoping that we'll get a chance to use Anagha again in the future!”
“Ariadne did a great job caring for our puppy for a day on short notice! It's easy to tell that she loves animals and had a great time playing with our pup. Her fenced in backyard was an excellent and safe environment for our small dog.”
“Jennifer is a sweetheart. She brought Lola right outside when I pulled up. She gave me photos and videos. My dog was so tired when I picked her up I can tell she had a great time cause when Jennifer turned around to leave Lola tried to follow her 😂 I will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve always treated dogs like part of the family, not just pets. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be in a home environment where they get real attention, affection, and care…not just supervision. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your dog is comfortable, loved, and well cared for. They have a huge back yard to enjoy running around with their tongues hanging to the ground lol! We usually bathe them outside before heading in on hot summer days. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m home throughout the day. This allows me to give consistent attention, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, and plenty of supervision to make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for at all times I currently have three small, well-socialized dogs who are friendly and enjoy meeting new dogs. Any dog in my care becomes part of our routine and is treated like family. Our day starts around 6 AM with the first potty break, followed by consistent outdoor time every 3–4 hours. I have a backyard, so the dogs get plenty of supervised outdoor play, along with daily walks for exercise and stimulation. I keep a structured but relaxed environment. My dogs are on a routine that includes feeding schedules, treats, and basic obedience reinforcement like sit, stay, and lay down. This helps create a calm, balanced atmosphere where all dogs can feel comfortable and settle in easily. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and well-managed home where your dog feels like they belong
“Very satisfied with the care of my puppy. Rosmery is a very kind person. My puppy quickly went crazy for her when she picked her up. I loved that she sent me photos while I was away from my Luna. My puppy was very happy when I came back to get her. —————————————————————- Muy satisfecha con el cuido de mi perrita, Rosmery es una persona muy amable, mi puppy rápidamente se volvió loca con ella al cogerla, me encanto que me envío fotos mientras estaba lejos de mi Luna, mi perrita estaba muy feliz al regresar a buscarla. THANK YOU!”

“We had a great experience with Nataliia watching oir dog for a week while we were out of town. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Nataliia pays close attention to detail — from monitoring food and water bowl levels to sending regular picture updates and check-ins throughout the week.”
About: I grew up with dogs. I had a Great Dane that lived to be 12. I currently have a mini bernedoodle that is almost 5 years old. I also have a bunny. I currently work full-time and am available on Saturday and Sunday for boarding and dog walking. From late June through August, my schedule is more flexible. I will be available daily.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life and understand that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. As a current dog owner to my energetic 1½-year-old dog, I have hands-on experience with daily walks, exercise, training reinforcement, feeding schedules, and providing lots of love and attention. Growing up with dogs taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets can thrive. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. In addition to my experience with dogs, I have spent years caring for animals through my equestrian background, which has helped me develop strong animal-handling skills, attention to detail, and a calm, responsible approach to animal care. I have spent the last 5 years riding and training horses professionally am really passionate about all things animals ! Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or companionship while you’re away, I’ll make sure they receive attentive care, plenty of affection, and regular updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. 🐾 I work as a professional rider and spend much of my day caring for and working with horses, which has given me extensive experience handling animals and maintaining consistent care routines. My schedule can vary depending on training and horse show commitments, but I do my best to keep my Rover calendar up to date and am often available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I always make safety and comfort my top priority when caring for pets. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and routine so they feel relaxed and secure while I’m with them. I’ve grown up around animals and currently work around horses, so I’m very used to reading animal behavior and staying calm and responsible in different situations. I bring that same mindset to every dog I care for.
“Steve was fantastic with my three dogs! His calm, easygoing energy made a noticeable difference right away. One of my dogs, Dolly, typically needs some time to warm up to new people but almost immediately she was walking happy and relaxed. This honestly blew me away. It's clear Steve has a natural way with dogs. I'd highly recommend him, especially if you have a pup that can be a little hesitant with strangers. We'll definitely be booking again!”

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs since I was 14. I was a free-lance dog walker for my neighborhood so I’ve had plenty of experience with many kinds of dogs! I go to school part-time so I’ll be able to take care of your pups as long as I’m not in school. I enjoy taking dogs on walks as I enjoy being active. I have plenty of toys to keep your pups busy as well as my own dog, Tucker, to keep them company! I will play with them and give them as much attention and love as I can.
About: Hello! I have 30 years of experience caring for pets. I own an 80lb lover-girl named Lobster and a 10lb rascal-cat named Trinity (from The Matrix!) My schedule is very flexible and I'm available for couch snuggles, energetic playdates, and walkies. My furry companions have other members of the family to care for them at home if I'm pet-sitting overnight. I can drop-in your place, go for walks, stay overnight, give your cat snuggles, or (with your approval) bring your pup(s) to my large fenced-in backyard!
About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was little, and not just family pets. While I grew up in a golden retriever family (on golden 4 now), I also currently have a cat, have had fish, guinea pigs, and bunnies. I have worked and volunteered at local farms, and bathed, groomed, fed, and played with all sorts of animals, and am equipped for a variety of animal care services. I also have lots of experience with pets of friends and family, and dog sitting, and get along well with all! I am recently graduated and back home in CT for the foreseeable future. I have a very flexible schedule, so please reach out with any requests and I am sure I can make it work. I am very good at tending to animals needs, but also going beyond. I know how to play with animals and help even the shyest feel comfortable, whether with treats, playtime, cuddles, or even my dog’s personal favorite - classical music! I am good with animals who are fearful as much as I am good with animals bursting with energy. I am able to feed dogs and cats and any pet, make sure they always have water available, give them potty breaks and walks, and playtime and rest time as needed. And of course, I am always happy to just sit and keep animals company - they need it as much as we do!
About: As a stay-at-home mom, caring for others is a big part of my daily life, and that includes animals.

Over the years I’ve also cared for guinea pigs and bunnies, which gave me experience handling small animals and making sure they feel safe and well cared for. I don’t currently have dogs of my own, but I have plenty of experience being around them and caring for them.

About: I've raised my own cat, Bug, age 2, since he was 2 months old, alongside my roommate's cat whom I've lived with for 4 years. I've also raised over 30 houseplants and have vast knowledge of a variety of plants and their needs. Additionally, I've been around the many animals in my family my whole life and have sat for relatives' cats and dogs of all sizes over the years. I'm currently in between jobs as I relocate from North Carolina to Connecticut and ultimately back to NYC, so I have a pretty open schedule! Happy to alter my plans around pet care and house sitting. I'm also a gigging musician so there are sporadic nights and weekends that may become unavailable, but I am largely looking to be a sitter while I'm in CT. Willing and able to care for indoor/outdoor pets, go on walks, make sure cats and dogs get plenty of play and pets as desired, give treats, clean and maintain home spaces, and whatever else you may need!

About: Hi paw friends 🐾 I am somewhat new to Rover but I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have always helped my family and friends care for their animals and I always enjoyed doing it. My husband and I got married four years ago and our little girl is three. It's so amazing to see her interact with the dogs because she gets more comfortable and happier each time. My husband and daughter are my best pet helpers when I am not around. Our family loves dogs and we will eventually get a dog when the time is right, but I love Rover because it’s give me the opportunity to still bond with pups. I truly love being around animals. Our families sometimes come to stay with us with their dogs and I get a crazy burst of happiness every time. Life is just better with a dog around and I would love to care and help with your pups! :) I know it can be tough trusting your animals in others hands but rest assured that your pet will be in great hands with me & I will send plenty of updates and pictures 📸🐾 I currently work part time (every weekend). So I am free to take care of your pups during the week and still on weekends when I’m home. My amazing husband and daughter are my best pet helpers when I am not around. I still offer some services on the weekends. I will care for the pet how the owner(s) want me to care for them. They will always bed fed, hydrated, clean, warm, and the happiest they can be in our home. Our home isn't that big so someone is always around. I am not much of an out-going person, I do have a good amount of friends but they all come to my house since I am the mama of the group :)

“Alan and Luis take such great care of our Hiro. He now knows their house and gets so excited in the car when we pull up to the driveway he can barely contain himself. He does still act like a lab puppy, and tends to try to eat everything, but they have always been very patient and understanding with him. We trust them completely to take great care of our boy when we are out of town.”
“Kathryn and Jeremy were great, can't recommend them enough. They were extremely communicative both before Bella's stay and during, updating us with pictures etc throughout the day. The couple are very well versed in dog behavior/needs and asked all the right questions to make us feel confident Bella was going to be well cared for and safe. When we picked Bella up she was very comfortable in their home and was resting with Kathryn and Jeremy. If you are looking for trustworthy couple to watch your pup with love and attention, this is it!”
“Laura was great with our pups! She accommodated our pick up and drop off times and sent lots pic pictures and videos. Her house is very nice and she has a big backyard on a lake. My dogs were so happy and at home with her.”
“Our dog was a rescue and can be timid and nervous around new people and in new places. We have used Maria's services three times and each time our dog is more and more comfortable at her home. It is clear that Maria and her family love dogs and don't mind about some of our dog's quirks! Maria has been flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and accommodated us when we needed to switch up our plans. We will definitely be using her again! ”
“Noel, his wife and son were very attentive to Khloe’s needs even before her arrival. It is obvious that they have passion for what they do and strive to give fur babies the best experience. Khloe thoroughly enjoyed playing in their spacious yard, running thru their fire hydrant sprinkler and lounging on their comfy couch. I received great updates with pictures included. This family offers peace of mind that your fur baby is in the best hands and surrounded by love. We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Contacted James kinda last minute. We met that evening and I dropped my dog off the following night. He must've had fun cause when I picked up up the following evening he was tired from all the playtime. Would definitely use again”
“Lennox came home happy and exhausted. A good sign she had a great time with Wendy and her new friends! I appreciated how quick Wendy was to respond and the great care she gave our pup!”
“If you need a pet sitter - Pauline is your girl!! I can’t thank her enough for hosting my two dogs in her home for the night. I received photos & an update within 30 minutes of dropping them off - & without having to check in myself - which I absolutely loved & appreciated. I then received updates all throughout the day which is exactly what I needed! She was VERY attentive to the dogs, asked about/followed their normal routine & updated me if she sensed anything was wrong or if the dogs seemed uncomfortable (one of them was exhibiting signs of an ear infection). I know my dogs were well taken care of and enjoyed their stay. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and we are so very grateful to Pauline!!!”
“Anna was the best sitter for our Doberman/German Shepard mix, Onyx! She watched Onyx for 4 days while we were out of town and did an amazing job at giving updates and sending pictures. Would definitely use her services again and gladly recommend to anyone looking in the future”
About: l've always loved animals and have several years of experience caring for dogs, including my own French Bulldog. I've cared for dogs of different breeds, ages, and personalities, so I understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or needs a little extra patience, l'Il make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Friends, family, and people I know trust me with their dogs because I care for every pet the same way I'd want someone to care for my own, with kindness, patience, and lots of love. I'Il always follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away ❤️ I’m a full-time college student, and most of my classes are online, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I’ll make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I live in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with great walking areas. Dogs receive regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. From playful Goldendoodles to tiny Yorkies, I’ve had the opportunity to care for so many wonderful dogs over the years, and I truly love getting to know each one’s unique personality. I also have plenty of experience as a dog owner. I had a Yorkie for about 5 years, a Maltese who was part of my family for 15 years, and I currently have a mixed-breed pup who has been part of our family for about 2 years. Being around dogs has always been a huge part of my life, and I honestly can’t imagine it any other way! Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs who are calm and happy to lounge around, as well as high-energy pups who need lots of playtime, attention, and exercise. I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual routine, personality, and needs. When your dog is in my care, they’ll be treated like one of my own—with plenty of love, attention, patience, and care. My goal is for both you and your pup to feel completely comfortable and confident while they’re with me. 🐾❤️ I’m a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a very flexible and open schedule for pet care. I’m also a part-time nursing student, but my school schedule is something I plan around, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine and will do my best to accommodate different schedules and needs. I’m also available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, boarding, and house sitting depending on my availability. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel completely confident that they’re in good hands. I treat every dog in my care like they’re part of my own family and make sure they receive plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and affection. I’m also happy to follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable and at home.
“Kevin was amazing. My dog, Scruffy is very shy, but he got comfortable with Kevin and his dog very quickly. It was evident that Scruffy had a pleasant stay with Kevin, and he’ll be back soon 👍 Bonus: Scruffy also smelled nice (like himself) when he got home. When Scruffy stays with other sitters, he usually comes home smelling like other dogs for a few days. It was definitely a bonus (for me) that it didn’t take a few days for Scruffy to smell like himself again, haha.”
“We found Anita and her wonderful family through Rover, and we are beyond grateful for the love and care they provide our dogs. Donnie and Nora absolutely love staying with them, and it’s clear they feel comfortable, happy, and truly at home. Anita keeps us updated with frequent photos and messages, which gives us complete peace of mind every time we’re away. Her family is incredibly kind, and their two daughters adore our dogs—it’s so special knowing our pups are not just being watched, but genuinely loved. We never have a single worry when Donnie and Nora are with Anita, and that level of trust is priceless. We will absolutely continue booking with Anita and her family for all future needs. I highly recommend them and can say with complete confidence that your pet will be in the very best hands.”
“Careen was wonderful with our senior dog and he loved her just as much as she loved him! She gave him lots of love and attention- I could tell he was very well cared for while we were away. We got lots of pictures and updates so I was completely at ease. We can’t wait to have Careen watch Shadow again!”
“Thank you Kevin for taking care of Rocco while my family and I were on vacation. Kevin has a warm and caring personality so we felt comfortable to leave our 10 month old husky under his care for 7 days after only 5 minutes of first meeting him. Kevin provided exceptional care to our Rocco and keep us updated by sending pictures and videos of the adventures Rocco experienced while we were away. We will definitely work with Kevin again, and of course recommend him to care for your dog. Thank you Kevin 😊”
“Nicole took such good care of our sweet Charlie! She was easy to get a hold of and sent us tons of photos. Charlie got lots of walks and scratches while we were gone! Thank you again Nicole!”
“Ifan is the best seater we've ever had. He took good care of our baby Toshi. We have found our person to care for dog in our absence. We love the regular updates and pictures and he is very affordable for the care he provides.”
