“Maria is the best ever! She took such great care of Luke sent us frequent pictures and really seemed to enjoy having him which was such a blessing to us!!! I recommend her highly!”

“When you find sitters that are "above and beyond ordinary", its difficult to sum things up in a few words. Delaney and her fiancee was absolutely superb. For this to be our first encounter, I felt a sense of peace with caring for my 4-legged baby, Tim. They were inviting and very accommodating. Im glad to know that Tim has adopted Rover parents in 2 cities, Orlando (Caylie and Jacob) and now in Jacksonville with an added bonus sister, Ivy. As a protective dog mum, I would highly recommend Delaney. Just remember that Tim gets first dibs (LoL).”

“I recently had Laura watch my 100 lb Goldendoodle, Bogey, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment I picked him up, it was clear he had an amazing time—he didn’t even want to leave! Laura was fantastic about keeping me updated with daily pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease. You could see in every photo that Bogey was happy, relaxed, and having a blast. Laura clearly knows how to make dogs feel loved and cared for. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”

“Mariia and her family were excellent! They took such a great care about my little furry friend. Mariia sent me messages and pictures almost every day. I knew he was in good hands. Will definitely book again! ☺️”

“I had never boarded my cat before and having read such awesome reviews about Katie, I knew she was the right person to care for him while I was out of town for 2 weeks. Boy were those reviews spot on! She was so interested in getting to know him and knew how to let him get adjusted to the unknown world of boarding. She is both a wonderful sitter and an amazing person. I will absolutely use her again when I need to board him. You will not be disappointed when you choose her. Thank you Katie for taking such good care of Arlo.”


“Rosangely was great! So kind and very communicative throughout my dogs stay. She made sure he was well taken care of with lots of cuddles and plenty of walks! Would absolutely recommend and I will be booking her again in the future!!”

“Kaitlyn and Andrew were wonderful. They sent us pics of Abby every day while we were on vacation. We could tell Abby was loved and enjoyed her time with them. She also got to make friends with their dog Pancake who kept Abby company while we were away. Recommend 100%”

“I’m so grateful I came across Daisy and her family. They watched my dog over the weekend and took amazing care of her. It was clear she was treated like part of the family, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Daisy kept me updated, and I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Travis was great to work with and was amazing with our little guy Bruno. He was willing to meet up first to get acquainted with Bruno and to make sure he would be comfortable in his home before we finalized the booking. His home is very clean, organized and dog friendly. I received frequent updates and many photos of him and Bruno playing, walking or just hanging out. I felt comfortable knowing Bruno was well taken care of! Overall a great experience and will definitely book with Travis again if I need sitter services.”

“Oh my goodness, this sitter is wonderful! I've booked her service twice now and have never been disappointed. Natazia has excellent communication and sends lots of pictures and videos. She's very accommodating as well. Highly recommend!”

“Maria is fantastic! Our dog John warmed up to her right away. Communication was excellent, and we feel so lucky to have found such a great sitter for our guy. Thank you Maria!”

“Gloria and her kids are superb in taking care of my furbaby. She keeps me updated of whats going on with my furbaby. I know its not easy due to my furbaby needs to take some medications 2x a day. Inspite of that they did a great job. I thank them for taking care of hershey and for being patience with her❤️❤️❤️.”

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, from playful puppies to senior dogs. I currently have a 2 year old cockapoo and a 1 year old cavalier king charles spaniel fully trained and full of love. Working from home allows me to naturally build pet care into my daily routine, giving dogs consistent attention, structure, and companionship throughout the day. With two dogs of my own, I’m already on a steady schedule of morning and evening walks, regular feeding times, and plenty of play time in between. Due to me being home primarily, I can provide frequent potty breaks, supervision, and quick responses to any needs, which helps dogs feel comfortable and secure. I take time to learn pets routines, preferences, and personalities so they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat every dog like my own, with plenty of love, structured walks, playtime, and calm companionship. I’m also attentive to details like feeding schedules, medication needs, and behavioral cues, ensuring your pet receives consistent, thoughtful care.
“We are so grateful to Anolan for taking such amazing care of our two dogs, Maisy and Hendrix, this past weekend while we made a last-minute trip to New Orleans for the birth of our niece. From the very beginning, Anolan was incredibly kind, patient, and responsive. She sent us updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our doggos were both happy and in good hands. Maisy and Hendrix absolutely loved her (and her sweet dog, Benji, who they got to go on walks and play with!), and they were clearly spoiled with love and treats. Anolan’s boyfriend was also great with them, and it was heartwarming to see how comfortable and relaxed our pups were in their care. We ended up being delayed in picking them up, and Anolan was nothing but understanding and gracious about it. We would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you again, Anolan—you’re the best!”

“We are so happy with our decision to leave George with Katie while we were overseas for our wedding for 2 weeks. It was obvious he was extremely happy in her care and alongside her dog, Maggie! She shared pictures and updates throughout the stay to keep us updated. It was nice knowing our dog George was having his own mini vacation while we were away missing him. 10/10 and will book with Katie again.”

“Deborah is always so great with my kitties! They love her, and always look forward to seeing her. She’s dependable, and we’ll absolutely be booking her in the future!”


“Erin was an outstanding pet sitter! Her communication was spectacular, she always sent plenty of photos of my kitties, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She followed every instruction perfectly, made sure my cats got plenty of playtime and attention, and clearly cared for them as if they were her own. I highly recommend Erin and will absolutely be booking her again for future trips!”

“Hannah treats our kids si well! She has to track down one kitty and sent a lovely picture! Smoke alarm had to be silenced , Hannah found the ladder and addressed the problem before I could reply! Thanks so much!”


About: Hi my name is Grace! I have two cats of my own named Chicken & Dumplings and Shrimp, so I know all about what it takes to gain the trust and affection of your babies! I always treat every cat I care for with the same love I give mine at home. I have several years of professional experience handling and grooming cats, so I’m comfortable around all kinds of cats- even the spiciest! I look forward to meeting and taking care of your babies! I know how hard it can be to leave them alone, so don’t hesitate to ask me anything!
“Shera is very kind-hearted and outgoing! She easily understood all of my instructions, and took great care of my fur babies while I was away. This was my first time leaving BOTH of my cats in the care of someone else, and I was a little anxious. After I met her, I knew I had nothing to worry about! I could not recommend her enough.”


“Margaret was absolutely incredible with Mew and Lily! She was very attentive and sent photos that made us feel 100% more confident our babies were taken care of while we were out of town. Highly recommend.”

“Sure! Here's an awesome and casual review you can post for Ruth: --- Ruth is a total gem! She took care of Luna, Stelly, and BK like they were her own—with *lots* of cuddles and love. Loads of updates and pictures. What really blew me away was how immaculate everything was when I got back. Usually, after a trip, I’m stuck cleaning up litter scatter, wiping down slimy bowls, and trying to reclaim some order, but not this time! Ruth is next-level OCD when it comes to clean pet areas, which allows me to relax after my trips. My fur babies were happy, loved, and my home was spotless. 1000% recommend grabbing her for your pets while you still can!”

“Ruby did an awesome job taking care of our Theo while we were away on vacation. She spent time with him morning and night feeding him his meals, giving him some treats and love while we were gone.”


“Alivia went above and beyond taking care of our sweet fur baby, Nutmeg - She took tons of pictures for us, cleaned her space up, and played with her with all her favorite toys! Will definitely be looking back at her whenever we need someone to drop in again 🥰 Highly recommend~”


“We're so glad we found Iva! We booked her so close to when we needed her for and she delivered. She always arrived on time day and night and our cats who only knew one sitter for years began trusting her. Iva absolutely did amazing, and we're definitely going to hire her again. 5 stars highly recommend!”

“Sara normally watches our dog at her house, but this time she came to our house twice a day while we were out of town to care for our cat. She did an excellent job, and we will do it again! Thanks Sara!”

About: I owned a huge Malamute/Lab rescue who ended up rescuing me. I miss being around animals. I will take my time in walking and spending time with your furry family member. I just moved here from Brooklyn NY. I walked miles upon miles in the snow and rain with my Dog. I enjoy being outdoors. I have been a dental Assistant for the past 30 years, I’m more than capable in keeping calm in a tense situation. Our Dental practice was pet friendly. I was the person in charge of handling all of the pets. I had a Great Dane panic at the sound of the drill, I soothed him throughout the appointment. I’m also a trained Dog Walker. I volunteer at the Jacksonville Humane Society a few days a week. I’m looking forward to helping out families that need an extra hand.

“We needed last minute care for 3 dogs and he was on it! I have high anxiety leaving my dogs with anyone and my dogs have separation anxiety, after day one, they were excited to return to him and opened up tremendously. He sent photo updates, was great with communication, and very kind. My husband and I highly recommend him as a dog sitter!”

“Laura was great. I was nervous about leaving Bella and she assured me she would be fine. Bella warmed right up and they had a great first day. I received pictures and videos of how Bella was doing throughout the day.”


“Tannia and Chris went above and beyond my expectations when caring for my senior girl. They are very accommodating and their knowledge of animals is impressive. They took alot of time listening to my concerns/instructions and followed them carefully. Thank you guys for loving on and caring for my baby.”


“AMAZING SERVICE! Randy and Mimi took care of our dog like he was their own. He had such a good time and was able to socialize and meet new dogs. We would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing doggy day care/boarding for their dog!”

“For parents of a shy and anxious dog, finding daycare is next to impossible. Marissa, her pups and family have been a blessing to our dog (and us)! We worry not at all with Zoey in Marisa's care. We couldn't be more grateful!”

“Cookie had the best time with Maria! She was really nice and made us all feel very confident about leaving him in her house (which is super nice and clean and super pet -friendly) She sent me pictures and videos of Cookie frequently and sent me updates all the time and I could see from the videos that he felt right at home.We can’t wait to book house sitting and boarding again 😊”

“Delaney was so amazing with my 1 yr old Labradoodle. This was our first time with her and, right from my initial request, she made us so comfortable, taking into consideration all our requests and information regarding my anxious and sensitive pup! We had some very specific requests as our dog recently had surgery, and after our meet and greet, I knew we had found just the right person! She kept us updated throughout the day and sent lots of pictures and videos. Thank you so much! We will be booking again soon.”

“As a first-time dog owner, I wasn't sure what to expect from a dog sitter. The moment we walked into Maria's home our dog (who barks at EVERYONE) didn't make a sound, I knew we were in good hands. That alone gave us so much reassurance that he was with the right person. Maria was professional, caring, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her, and we'll definitely be using her services again!”

“Katya was great! She stayed in contact and progress updates on how Smokey was doing! Smokey came home exhausted from all the fun and in great shape. Highly recommend! Thank you!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and in college I used to volunteer and foster cats/dogs. My partner was a dog trainer prior to joining the service, so I’ve also learned a lot from him, too. My husband and I have a Belgian Malinois puppy that we are training. During the pandemic, I impulsively adopted my cat, Remi! He is my literal baby and I am very meticulous about the care I give him and people I trust to care for him when I’m away. I’d be happy to provide services to you and your furry family member(s). You can be sure I will treat your animals with kindness, love, and care just as I do my own. This is a side-job for me as my full time job is working in foster care. I have the ability to work from home M/W and can be flexible during the week with advance notice. I worked in foster care and typically WFH M/W. Throughout the week, I’m in the field or at my office, but I can be flexible with my schedule with advance notice. I’m available almost all of the time unless already booked. Advance notice is very much appreciated, even if you “maybe” have plans! I love giving priority to my repeat clients, as well. 😊 During drop in visits, I always ensure to follow all specific instructions and be as respectful to the home as possible (e.g., not leaving a mess or lights on, etc.). I also try my best to take quality photos and specific updates, if applicable! Also, my partner trained dogs prior to joining the service, so he will sometimes tag along with me if you are comfortable with this!
About: Hello, I'm Maya! And that handsome model you see on my profile is Kash'Money Jones, my 4 year old Labrador. He is great with all dogs and offers a great opportunity for socialization and group play! I've taken care of multiple dog breeds and sizes over the course of 7 years, my experience allows me to provide the safest care to your furbabies. Being a dog owner myself, dogs are my passion. My main objective is the safety and enjoyment of your pets, I'm so excited to offer my pet sitting services again and I'm excited for us to board with us! I work full time as a remote Social Services Coordinator. What this means for you is the I am home and available M-F and S-S 24/7 to provide reliable and loving care to your pets while you take care of weekly responsibilities! My work from home position provides great flexibility for walks and playtime all throughout the day. Your furbaby will have fun here, guaranteed! Kash and I live in beautiful apartment homes on Southside Jax. Our home is clean, comfy, and spacious! The apartments are "garden-style" which means beautiful, naturistic scenery for your furbuddies to walk and romp. The entire area is pedestrian friendly with many sidewalks, crosswalks, and grassy areas great for sniffing. It does come with a wonderful dog park, however, I do not take Clients to the park unless requested as it can pose an unnecessary safety and health hazard.
“We were so pleased with Cody and Angel's care. They love staying with Amy and her doggy's. We are very happy . Amy is wonderful looking forward to using the service with Amy alot in the future.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets for years and truly love spending time with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and comfortable environment, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care and plenty of attention. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to keep them safe, happy, loved, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind that they’re in great hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home, so I’m able to provide pets with plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. I have a friendly 2-year-old pug who loves meeting new friends, a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, and a walking trail right outside my neighborhood for daily walks and exercise. I enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and right at home while they’re in my care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a secure, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore under supervision. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and provides a calm environment where your dog can relax. I have a friendly 2-year-old pug who enjoys the company of other dogs, but I always introduce pets gradually to ensure everyone is comfortable. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines, and I’m happy to crate your dog if that’s part of their normal schedule. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Millie did great with my little one! He was immediately comfortable with her. This was my first time using Rover so I was very nervous leaving him with a complete stranger. She provided me pictures of him enjoying his stay. When I return to this area I will definitely bring my Fudge to Millie instead of boarding him at home now that I know he has a safe, clean and comfortable home to stay in. I recommend Millie 100%!”

“Yekaterina and her family are amazing! They watched my 8 week old puppy whitney for several days and treated her like family. She sent videos and cute pictures throughout the day and the kids played with my pup and were so good to her. My puppy loved it at their house! 🩷💕”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I am very patient and loving. I know everyone might say that, but I really do love animals 🥰 I have my dog Kota who’s been my best friend for 10 years now, he’s super sweet and friendly with other animals. I have a huge backyard with a pool where your furry friend can run and swim. I also work from home so they will always have someone there. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. My mornings start off with feeding my animals and going for a morning walk with the dogs. During my lunch hour that’s when I let the dogs outside to run around and swim for an hour, and then again once my work day is done. We also take potty breaks in between. When my friends and family leave their dogs with me I follow the same schedule and make sure the dogs get plenty of exercise, tired dogs are happy dogs :) since I’m home all day me and Kota can provide companionship all day long for your furry kid :) I live in a house with a huge fenced in yard and a pool. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. I’m always around to make sure that they’re not eating things they’re not supposed to.
About: I have always grown up and been around dogs and cats. I grew up with big dog breeds and they will always hold my heart, but I currently have a small dog who I love like a human child haha. I’ve been around and helped train puppies and also have experience with older doggies. I accept and love all shapes, sizes, ages, and breeds. I have a full time remote job , so I am always home! I may go to the gym for an hour but I am never more than 20 minutes away from my house. I have time during my day for long walks and even longer cuddle sessions. I have a larger apartment so accommodate any size doggo and my own small pup to offer some company to yours! I also love to be outside and go on walks so there is no shortage of outside time.
“Carolyn took great care of my Dustin boy!! She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day! Will definitely be using her again to watch my sweet boy. Thank you!”

“Deb is awesome! She’s a lifesaver for working long hours and makes sure my dogs get their legs stretched and good potty break so I don’t have to worry about them all day. Also greatly appreciate that she always picks up any stuff they’ve gotten into during the day and puts it away. Never expected that so it’s greatly appreciated. Also always checks the water bowls and my dogs seem happy to see her!”

About: My siblings would ask me to babysit their dogs while they were away, and I always made it a point to leave their homes as I found it. I’ve worked in childcare and taught karate for three years now (not saying is the same thing) so your pet will be receiving the attention and play they need. Karate lessons too if they’d like🙌! I work part time at a martial arts school. Tuesday and Thursday nights I am working for certain. Throughout the day I’m available to walk/babysit/etc. I have work on my laptop so I can take whatever I need to a home and house sit at the same time. I always want to keep an eye on them, making frequent checks to see how they’re doing. I’d like to be informed of any quirks or habits I should be aware of so the pet is comfortable and receives the best care possible. If they want to play, I’m so ready to play!
“Hannah is amazing we loved hearing how the boys are and she took care of them just like they were her own we will definitely be using the service again and definitely be using Hannah in the future”

“Thank you so much, Aaliyah! We were very happy with your service and the way you took care of Soda. We felt completely at ease during our absence thanks to your presence with our daughter. We truly appreciate your kindness and professionalism. We highly recommend you!”

About: Hi, I’m Grace — a pet care professional who works at a dog facility, with hands-on experience in grooming, boarding, kenneling, and daycare. Rover is something I do on the side, because honestly, one job’s worth of animals just isn’t enough for me. Senior dogs and anxious pets hold a special place in my heart. I’ve cared for animals with complex daily routines, multiple medications, scheduled feedings, and extra TLC, and I treat every one like they’re my own. Finding someone your babies can truly relax with matters, and that’s something I take to heart with every visit. As a cat mom myself, patience and attentiveness just come naturally to me. I’d love to meet your fur baby and learn what makes them feel at home — don’t hesitate to reach out! I currently work part time at a pet care facility, and my schedule is flexible! I’m available for overnight or drop in visits- whichever works best for your pets! I care for each and every pet as if they were my own babies! Being away from your pet is hard for you and them, so I do my very best to keep you up to date and make sure they’re happy and healthy while you’re gone :)
About: I’ve grown up taking care of cats, dogs, turtles, and hamsters of my own. I have done pet sitting for about two years mostly with dogs and cats. I am an unemployed post-college grad currently job searching so I have plenty of free time to take care of your lovely pets. Available pretty much all the time every day With taking care of pets in other’s homes I first and foremost follow every instruction explicitly, whether it be feeding, medicine, bathroom needs, etc. Then depending on the sociability of the pet I am always open to spending some quality time playing, sitting with, petting, or whatever other form of human interaction your pet wants and needs. And if they want no attention I will not overstep their boundaries.

About: Caring for animals has been a part of my life since I was a kiddo. This is a new venture for me with Rover specifically, but I’m excited to get started. My goal is to be sure your pup(s) feel happy and at ease, comfortable, protected, spoiled, fun and playful, having a day that mirrors the day as if they were with you. It’s important for them to be excited to see you as if nothing was different for them. I have extensive experience with all ages, sizes and breeds of dogs, as well as other animals. I’m able to give medications, work with special needs, basic training, seniors and babies, I will be present and attentive to their needs, following your guidelines. I’m excited about this new adventure and appreciate the opportunity. My availability is wide open and I’m looking to establish a continuous opportunity for folks and their pets. I’m available for daily/weekly sitting, drop-in’s, walking, and extended or scheduled times. It’s important to me for your fur baby to feel comfortable with me, trusting and at ease. I will always follow your guidelines, suggestions and instructions with handling, walking, playing, crating, treats, food, medications, whatever is needed and expected. I will reach out if there’s questions on any issue. I am committed and ‘present’ while caring for your special pet. I appreciate the opportunity.
About: I've grown up with cats, and have been a personal pet sitter for the past couple of years in my local neighborhood. I previously worked at a dog daycare/boarding business and have learned many different skills with dogs. I also used to have a foster dog whom I was able to train and care for continuously for 6 months. I am currently a full-time student at UNF, but have pretty open availability. I am mostly looking to help out within clients' homes, whether it's walking your dog and/or letting them out to play, or just stopping in to check on your cat! I am fully dedicated to caring for all your pets! I love animals and will do whatever it takes to give them the love and attention they need!
About: Ever since I was little, I have a huge heart for dogs. It wasn’t until I was 10 that I finally had a family dog, and from then on dogs have always been a part of my life. I’ve done personal dog-sitting on and off for a few years for some friends and family and I’ve always really enjoyed it. I did Rover a few years ago and loved it, but life got a bit crazy so I had to pause it. I was still able to consistently dogsit for some repeat customers these last few years, and now my wife Linsey joins me in that! Your dog can expect walks at the park or in our neighborhood and for my home to be their home. If your dog likes play dates, my Rover friends would certainly be about it! My normal job is pretty flexible on where I can work, so if your dog needs extra attention, working from home is totally doable. Between me and Linsey, at least one of us is always home. I’ve done Rover on and off for the last 8 years, and have really enjoyed it! My job is super flexible, with set hours only 2 nights a week and once during the day. I’m mostly working from home or at coffee shops, so it’s super easy to stay home with a dog. Between me and my wife, someone can pretty much always be with your pet. Our home is your dog’s home. If they want to go on the couch or follow us around, by all mean. If they like their space, I’ll give them space. Many dogs have taken a snooze on our couch, legs in the air.

“Paige did great! We had to book someone last minute and she really came through. She was open to all the details regarding walking our puppy and provided pictures and descriptions! Highly recommend!”
About: I have been around dogs almost all of my life. I had a chihuahua mix growing up. I also know the basics of senior care, since I had to go through that with my dog. I like working with smaller dogs. Taking them on walks and giving them all my attention to play. My schedule is all over the place as a nursing student who works and I own my own small business. But mostly my weekdays are free at some point in the day. While my weekends are more busy. Dogs are so great to walk, play with, watch, and give all of your attention to. I would care for dogs in a clients home by making sure the dog has the appropriate water and food. And is getting any medication or care if they are a senior dog. As well as taking walks and play time.
About: Having three dogs of my own, trust me i get it! I've been helping friends and neighbors since i was thirteen. Ranging from cuddly Retrievers to hyperactive Pit bulls, I've had the chance to hang with all different breeds. I am currently out of college for the summer and have already started dog sitting for some friends, I would love to add more pets to my schedule. Thanks to my open schedule, I will have plenty of time to get to know your cuddly companions! I like to walk my dogs in a familiar area so they feel comfortable as well as everyone else. I'm always equip with a water bowl, doggy bags and a few treats to reward good behavior. If I'm doing drop-ins, I like to stay and do some activity with the pets to make sure their staying active and happy.

About: I have worked and volunteered with dogs for the past two years. I am happy to love and care for your dog! I am looking to gain even more experience. I work for my family’s construction business and am flexible with my hours. I also take care of their chickens and dogs. I also have my own dog who lives with me so I prefer to dog sit in the clients own home. I have a reliable car and can travel to drop in on clients pets. I specialize in drop in’s for cats and dogs.

“Hannah is soo wonderful and accommodating! Most importantly, I could tell by all the pictures that my dog was very happy while boarding with her. Extremely thankful we found Hannah and highly recommend her”

“When you find sitters that are "above and beyond ordinary", its difficult to sum things up in a few words. Delaney and her fiancee was absolutely superb. For this to be our first encounter, I felt a sense of peace with caring for my 4-legged baby, Tim. They were inviting and very accommodating. Im glad to know that Tim has adopted Rover parents in 2 cities, Orlando (Caylie and Jacob) and now in Jacksonville with an added bonus sister, Ivy. As a protective dog mum, I would highly recommend Delaney. Just remember that Tim gets first dibs (LoL).”


“Rosangely was great! So kind and very communicative throughout my dogs stay. She made sure he was well taken care of with lots of cuddles and plenty of walks! Would absolutely recommend and I will be booking her again in the future!!”

“I’m so grateful I came across Daisy and her family. They watched my dog over the weekend and took amazing care of her. It was clear she was treated like part of the family, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Daisy kept me updated, and I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Travis was great to work with and was amazing with our little guy Bruno. He was willing to meet up first to get acquainted with Bruno and to make sure he would be comfortable in his home before we finalized the booking. His home is very clean, organized and dog friendly. I received frequent updates and many photos of him and Bruno playing, walking or just hanging out. I felt comfortable knowing Bruno was well taken care of! Overall a great experience and will definitely book with Travis again if I need sitter services.”

“We are so happy with our decision to leave George with Katie while we were overseas for our wedding for 2 weeks. It was obvious he was extremely happy in her care and alongside her dog, Maggie! She shared pictures and updates throughout the stay to keep us updated. It was nice knowing our dog George was having his own mini vacation while we were away missing him. 10/10 and will book with Katie again.”


“Absolutely amazing pet sitting experience! My pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for while I was away. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Reliable, professional, and genuinely caring — I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care. I’ll definitely be booking again.”

“Absolutely great sitter and we are so happy to have found her. She is beyond patient and has a process to get your pup acclimated to her home and her dogs. Lots of videos and I know my dogs are being well taken care of when they are there. She started working on behavior issues with our puppy while he was in her care. Her patience is unmatched and I am thankful we found her”

“Andrea and David are outstanding!!!! They truly show their care and love for animals. My Lolo abd Charlie were sooooo happy during their 16 day stay with them!!!! Excellent communication and accomodating to our senior doggie. When we picked them up, they had gifted them cute bandanas and treats!!! Definitely will use them again whenever we’re out of town!!!!”

“Betsy came back very happy and tired. Usually when I leave her with people she comes back with lots of energy. They truly take the take with the dog and exercise. Also respond very quickly with pictures and updates. Highly recommend”

“Joanna is an amazing dog sitter and was very patient with my 4 month old pup. She constantly updated me on how my pup was doing by sending me multiple pictures throughout the day. Would definitely book again!”

“Tyler you are the best. Thank you for take care for this nine days of our Luna, for supplying all your medications and give to her all your love specially your kids, for the photos and updates everyday. Again, you are the best❤️❤️”

“Lisa and David are great. Took the time to learn about Lucy, likes and dislikes. It’s very comforting knowing that she’s in great hands. Not everyone will let her sleep in the bed with them, which Lucy loves! Will definitely use them again.”

“My dog was well cared for with updated texts & pics to say / show- how she was doing. She was very happy & playful when I picked her up, no worries, no signs of stress ?. I could tell she had a really great stay. I definitely recommend this Provider.”

“Miss Cindy is wonderful!! If she’s available, grab her! She will love and take care of your dog just like it were her own! Her place is perfectly dog friendly and she will spoil your dog with comfort!!! Just do it! You will not be disappointed! First time ever leaving our Gypsy and after meeting Cindy we were not a bit concerned ….she communicates extremely well via text and pictures! Gypsy will be back to stay with Miss Cindy!!!! 🦮🐾🦴🐶”

“Adriana was amazing! My dog took to her immediately and he’s normally shy. She had a pool for my dog to swim in and a big backyard for him to run around and play. She sent me pics and videos of him everyday while I was away. She also helped me by cooking his food for him while I was away. I will definitely be rebooking with Adriana when I go on my next trip!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my whole life. I’m a great balance between active and just keeping company - from puppies/kittens to senior pets I work weekday mornings but am free after 1pm daily and all day Wednesday and Sunday — plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, overnight care, or just hanging out with pets. I live in a pet-free apartment in a safe, walkable neighborhood with access to a nearby dog park. I share the space with a pet-loving roommate, and we both enjoy spending time with animals. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, relaxed, and cared for with lots of attention and companionship.
