“Sherry was very communicative, accommodating for an energetic puppy, and went above & beyond with treats! Mila was treated like the princess she is. I appreciated the transparency and patience she provided. I would leave her with Mila again in a heartbeat (and will again soon!).”
“Excellent Sitter. Probably around my 5-6th time returning. My pup always returns home happy and tired from all the playing and running outside. Will continue to use”
“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”

“Rita was great! Quick responses, frequent updates and our dog Maple and cat Olive loved her (boarded our dog and had drop-in for our cat). Olive is usually fine when we are away but it was our first long trip away from Maple and she came home happy and healthy. I would use Rita’s services again, no problem”

“Bronwen took amazing care of my pup. Keep me updated all throughout the day during the time she was boarded. I can tell she loves Maple like one of her own dogs. Thanks again.”
“Nicolette was the best! She is very communicative and quick to respond. Before our booking we coordinated a meet and greet with our dogs, which made me feeling very comfortable leaving Belle with her for a week. While I was away, Nicolette sent lots of picture and updates so I knew that Belle was doing well! Would definitely recommend Nicolette!”
“Juliana was truly a godsend, I can’t imagine leaving Milton with anyone else, she took amazing care of him, sent us photos and updates everyday and truly made it feel like he was staying with extended family ❤️ she treated him like one of her own dogs and we will absolutely be using her for all of our future trips!”
“I would highly recommend Steffani and Joshua. They put us at ease with a visit to their home prior to our dog’s stay to see their place and meet their sweet dog. They have a clean and tidy home and great fenced in yard to play. They sent us photos and videos during the stay and were awesome at communicating how things were going. Our dog had such a great time with them and we’ll definitely consider them for our next pet sitting needs!”
“Jessica took great care of my girl Cora. She is super sweet and I could tell Cora made herself right at home. Her kitty was also part of the welcoming committee 😂. She was flexible on drop off/pick up times. I would definitely use Jessica’s services again!”
“Laura was the absolute best!! I couldn’t ask for a better person and environment for my dog. I didn’t have to worry at all while I was away - I was confident that my dog was being loved and cared for. Thank you!”
“Loved her! She kept me up to date daily with a photo, video, or comments regarding my dog, Sadie. She was attentive to any concerns I had in the beginning as my dog has food allergies, and she assured me she would follow my instructions regarding her care completely. I will be using her again!”
“Jordyn is fantastic with dogs! Her calm and loving personality was a great match for our hyper “still-a-puppy” at three years of age goldendoodle. She is one of the best sitters we have had!

“Alana was wonderful! She gave great updates and lots of pictures every day, and was very communicative about her schedule so we knew exactly when she’d be stopping by. She handled our cats’ different personalities very well, giving our shy boy plenty of space and our friendly boy lots of play time. We felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands all week!”
“Jordan was fantastic! She was very flexible and understanding of last-minute changes to our plans. The cats appeared happy and well cared for when we arrived back.

She always responded promptly to messages and even brought in packages left on the porch. She truly went above and beyond and we are so grateful!”

“This was my second time having Catherine visit my cat Molly. Catherine is very reliable and great at communicating how well Molly is doing in my absence. I completely trust Catherine and look forward to working with her again in the future.”
About: I’ve grown up always having cats, so I’m very comfortable caring for them and understanding their different personalities. I’ve also fostered 12 cats, which gave me experience with a wide range of temperaments, from shy and nervous to very social and playful. I have experience pet sitting for others, including feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure cats feel comfortable while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I’m patient and respectful of each cat’s personality; whether they’re social and playful or more shy and independent. I know how to give them space when needed while still making sure they’re cared for and safe. I pay attention to routines and small changes in behavior so I can make sure everything is okay. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of cats in volunteer shelters alongside helping family members. I have also had experience in helping take care and watch a friend’s kitten. My main experience is cleaning litter boxes, grooming (when necessary as kitten) and taking care of feeding. I am patient, caring, and give time to be playful!
About: I've been watching the pets of friends, relatives, and neighbors since I was about 18. I've given insulin to both dogs and cats during my time pet-sitting. I currently own and care for two very spoiled female guinea pigs. During the week, I work full-time with a hybrid home/office schedule. On the days I am in the office, I do leave at mid-day to finish my workday from home. I can be available for bathroom breaks all throughout the day and go on walks/play with your pets in the evening. I work from a laptop, so I have the ability to relocate my workspace if necessary. I am able to provide all-day availability on weekends. Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that need to be accounted for. I currently have experience taking care of furry ones of all ages and medical conditions.

“Dante was Great. This was Bubba's first time being babysat by someone that him and I didn't know. Dante kept me updated on Bubba's progress throughout the day which gave me relief because I was just as nervous as Bub. He's very pleasant, excellent in communication, and l can tell that he genuinely love dogs.”
“Weiyu is a great sitter. Excellent communication and updates. She took great care of my puppy and he had a great time with her adorable mini doxie. Would definitely bring my dog back for another visit !”
About: I have taken care of animals for over 25 plus years both as a pet owner and pet sitter. I love all animals (especially DOGs!!) and I am happiest when I get to spend time with my furry friends I am a retired scientist who enjoys spending my free time gardening, walking, practicing Pilates, and—most of all—caring for animals. I truly enjoy dog walks, park visits, and building meaningful relationships with the pets and families I serve. I provide dependable, compassionate pet care, including regular visits, dog walking, and transportation to veterinary appointments to help keep your furry family members healthy and happy. Services Offered: Dog Walking Drop-In Visits Boarding House Sitting Medication administration (including injections) Special care upon request, such as diapering, assisted feeding, and cleansing With over 25 years of experience as a pet owner and caregiver, I have cared for animals with allergies, cardiac and pulmonary disease, heart failure, dementia, and incontinence. I am attentive, patient, and comfortable managing complex care needs. Caring for animals is both a blessing and a privilege. I pour my heart into every pet I care for and treat each one as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a secure, calm home environment where pets are closely supervised at all times and treated like family. My boarding services include regular neighborhood walks and park visits, always conducted safely using secure leashes, pet-appropriate gear, and routes suited to your pet’s needs and energy level. Playtime is structured, supervised, and balanced with plenty of rest, affection, and cuddling. I strictly follow each pet owner’s feeding instructions, schedules, and care preferences to maintain consistency and reduce stress. I am experienced in administering medications, including oral medications and injections/shots, and I do so carefully and confidently according to your veterinarian’s guidance. I maintain a clean, pet-safe home, free from hazards, and I take extra care to ensure doors, gates, and shared spaces remain secure. Small pets are welcome to enjoy free access to the main living area, including cozy couch cuddling, while always being monitored to ensure their comfort and safety. I prioritize positive experiences, gentle handling, and clear communication with pet parents, so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for, safe, and truly loved while you’re away.
“Bronwen is an excellent pet dog caregiver. She went out of her way to make sure Tootsie was comfortable, safe and enjoyed her experience. Her 2 dogs are very pleasant and add some playfulness to Tootsie’s visit. Her yard is lovely and a joy for my small dog to explore. Her home is comfortably set up for her to share her affection for the dogs under her care.”

About: I grew up having pets since I was born, including dogs, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs and others. My daughters and I have taken care of our neighbors and friends dogs, and we have experience interacting with cats from my brothers and friends. We have only guinea pigs now, but my daughters are longing for any dog-sitting especially, so we have plenty of space, love and affection to spare, if needed. I am a teacher with my summers off. My daughters are in camps periodically, but we are largely staying local throughout the rest of the summer, and I have a number of house projects that will keep me based at home for most days. I have a pet-friendly townhouse community that I live in. Safe, slow-moving cars, dog-walking areas with doggie bag stations, coupled with open grassy areas, and conveniently located near several close-by parks and even a dog park 10 minutes way. Other dogs are leashed in the community. If needed, your dog can be kept in our finished basement, with plenty of space to move around. In your home, if you prefer to have the dog walked nearby and/or caged at night, that will not be a problem.
“Juliana was so sweet and out meet and greet ahead of time was fabulous! Our Puppy got along so well with her pups and one other she was watching. Paulie is still sleeping off all the sun and activity he had yesterday!!”
About: Back home, I rescued and cared for several dogs while helping them recover and find loving, responsible families. I have always felt a deep connection to animals and enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I learn quickly and follow instructions carefully to ensure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, prioritizing their happiness and well-being. I work part-time and online, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine and needs. I am available throughout the week and can provide regular attention, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand that consistency is important for pets, and I do my best to maintain their usual schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I personally prefer house sitting because pets are often happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special instructions provided by their family. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while providing attentive, loving, and reliable care. If needed, I may be able to host pets in my apartment on a case-by-case basis, but my primary focus is providing care in the pet’s own home where they feel safest and most comfortable.
“Cathy and Amy were wonderful and took great care of our Doggo! They are super friendly and create and joyful environment for the visiting dogs. As soon as I heard my dog was relaxed in the dog bed outside the bedroom and the kitchen I knew we found great sitters for our dog:)”

She was super patient with our dog even when she was jumping a bit, and she came right on time as we has requested. We will absolutely use her again!”
“Amanda was great! She is always on time and makes our dogs care her priority. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible dog sitter or walker.”
“When I was injured and unable to walk my dog, Luna, Matthew was an absolute lifesaver. He showed up every single day; rain or shine; right on time, without fail. His reliability and dedication gave me such peace of mind during a challenging time. Not only was he dependable, but Luna absolutely adores him. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks. Matthew’s consistency, kindness, and professionalism have been an essential part of both my recovery and Luna’s happiness. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker.”
“Cara is the BEST! My buddy Apollo is always happy to see her because he knows he’s going for his walk that he loves. Cara is always pleasant, great with Apollo and has concern for his welfare whether it’s too hot, if he can have a treat, or if he pooped haha! Cara rules!”
“Jordan is patient and kind when working with my dog. She is punctual and flexible if you need her to be. I have already booked her for another walk and will continue to do so in the future.”

About: Hello! I am a studying veterinary technician at Purdue University! I've also have done work at both boarding facility's and doggy day cares. I have had training in handling, playtime, walks, designated diets. Everything you can think of to keep your pet happy while you are away. While my schedule may vary during different semesters,it should mostly stay the same. I am available during most afternoons till later into the day. So I can take care of any potty breaks, lunchtime, or later day walks as needed. We have a fenced in back yard with plenty of space for the dogs to run around. The backdoor is a glass screen door, so it is easy to keep track of them if I need to step inside quickl; but I prefer to stay outside as long as I need to keep an eye on them.

It will definitely use him again, and I have actually recommended him to my mom for her dogYou will definitely use him again and I actually have recommended him to my mom for her dog.”

“Janelle is very friendly, patient, and helpful! My dog is usually nervous around people she doesnt know but she warmed right up to her immediately and enjoyed her walks. Communication was great and the overall experience was pleasant. I look forward to booking with Janelle again in the future(:”
“AMAZING! Thats the only word I can think of to describe Linda. We were lucky to be able to work with her last minute. She is very flexible with booking, and extremely responsive. We look forward to having her continue to walk our dog as much as possible!”
About: My personal experience has consisted of hands-on settings caring for dogs through pet sitting, volunteering at an animal shelter, and helping raise and train my own dog from puppyhood. At the shelter, I regularly cared for and walked both dogs and cats, gaining knowledge and experience with a variety of temperaments and energy levels. I’ve also sat alongside a professional trainer with my own dog, watching taught me how to set appropriate boundaries, understand behavior, and use patience and consistency. In addition to basic training, I’ve taught fun commands like “roll over” and “paw.” Overall, I’m confident handling dogs with different personalities and needs. I prioritize being both patient and attentive while maintaining structure and safety. Your pet will be treated like family! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your pet lots of attention, exercise, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure each pet feels comfortable and loved. I’ll also send regular updates so you never feel out of the loop. I love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I always make sure they are always in a safe, supervised, and stress free environment. I pay close attention to them, follow any instructions you may provide, and keep walks and visits secure while aLeo enjoyable. I also believe communication is key, so I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away.

“Kate and Bill are the most fantastic dogsitters we've ever worked with on Rover. Kate is responsive and reassuring. During our meet and greet, she asked great questions and was proactive in acclimating my dog, Belle, to the space and making both Belle and me feel comfortable. I consider myself a neurotic pet parent, and this was the first time I didn't feel that knot of anxiety when I dropped Belle off with a new sitter. It truly felt like I was leaving her with family. Belle clearly had a great time with them and didn't show any of the separation anxiety signs we usually see from her when we return from vacation. Kate and Bill are 100% our preferred sitters from now on, and we will absolutely be repeat clients!”

We are so thankful to have found Jason and his family as they are clearly dedicated to doing such a great job taking care of pets. Will definitely be rebooking soon and would give 10 stars if I could! Thanks again, Jason and family!”
