About: My senior dog passed away after we shared 18 wonderful years together. I know how much your family members mean to you. I will ensure my time with them will be fun and show care and love as if they were my own. I'm retired and have plenty of time on my hands. One reason for pursuing this opportunity is to get more involved and out of the house. I currently have only my little Percy - he's strictly an indoor cat with his routine - early am feedings and lots of sleep during the day. I love to walk and enjoy having a pal to share the time outside. I do miss my dog, our daily walks are where I hold very fond memories. She loved to bring sticks home and place them in the yard. I have always enjoyed my experience with pet sitters that I've hired. Each person understood how important it is to follow instructions and established routines. I would ensure I have complete understanding of each request and treat your pet as if they were mine.
“Anya had a great time and Logan and his family were wonderful hosts. She is excited to stay again with Nico sometime in the future, thank you so much for taking care of my baby girl!”
“We’ve now used Luis and Sarah for pet sitting for the second time, and once again they were absolutely wonderful. They took such great care of our dog and treated him like he was their own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was comfortable, and happy while we were away. They’re reliable, attentive, and clearly genuinely care about the pets they watch. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving pet sitters.”
“Lauren was great. She was very accommodating with our last minute request & very open & honest, answering all of our questions & helping us feel at ease. She sent pics & kept us up to date on how the dogs were doing, letting them snuggle on the couch or the bed. They got to run around & play in her awesome yard, & came back just as happy as when we left them. She had space to keep multiple dogs separately (but only took our dogs for the weekend), or was willing to help socialize our pups in a safe, controlled environment if we wanted. It was a great stay & the dogs loved it. Thanks Lauren!”
“Wonderful couple ! This was my first time using the app , they made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog while I went out of town. Javier kept me informed and sent pictures my entire booking ! I will definitely be booking again”
“Ayelet was so wonderful. She sent me a bunch of photos and videos of Booker, and it made me feel so much better leaving him knowing he was having a good time. He had so much fun playing with Luke, and I’m so glad he was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be back next time we have to go out of town!”
“Isabella was fantastic and took such great job of our pup!! We are so thankful he had such a nice place to call home while we were out of town. Super responsive and provided great updates. Would highly recommend!”
“Hope and her husband are amazing pet sitters. We had to leave Jack for a week, and I didn’t feel good about leaving him at a boarding facility for that long knowing how impersonal and lonely it can get outside of play hours. I was nervous at first of leaving him for that long with anyone outside of family, but Hope and Jeff were amazing!!! I got daily photos and videos, and I could tell Jack was having the time of his life. He was so well taken care of for which I’m grateful. Will definitely be thinking of Hope anytime I need a sitter for Jack.”

“Becca dropped in each day to care for our cat while we were out of town for 3 weeks. She is not only super responsible and reliable, but also communicative, kind and clean. She left detailed notes with photos each day and was quick to reply to any questions. She even offered to water some plants and come for an extra visit one day when our cat had wandered off to make sure he was back home safely! We felt at ease knowing that our boy was in such good hands for so long!”
“Mary Elena was an amazing sitter! She was so patient with Biscotti while my kitten waited a few visits to open up. Mary Elena was very communicative and sent the best updates and pictures. I had no doubt that Biscotti was in great hands while I was away. Will definitely book again!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Elizabeth. She came prepared to our meet and greet with a through list of questions about my cat and our home. She was a great communicator and kept me up to date on what was going on with my cat and sent pictures every day. She even brought in my mail, watered my plants, and took out the trash before she left on her last visit. It’s obvious that my cat loved his time with her. I won’t hesitate to use her services again!”
“Meghan is amazing! She took excellent care of our 2 fur babies and kept me in the loop the entire time. She is so caring and will go out of her way to make sure they are well taken care of. I loved receiving photos daily, really gave us the peace of mind we needed when going out of town. We would absolutely book her again for future travel needs- 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for a great care taker in the area!”
“Solange is the best! Always takes such wonderful care of my cats, and leaves me veryyyyyy comfortable leaving my cat that requires 3 different medicines twice a day. Highly recommend!!”
“Jessica does well with our pets and communicates updates and photos to reassure us when we're away. Giving pills and injections to our cat is another skill that we're happy to have Jessica's help with. It's comforting to have a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Jay is a generous and attentive sitter! He was wonderful with our bonded kitties & even went above and beyond when one of the kitties pulled some funny business. Thank you for helping ensure our furry friends were taken care of over the holiday!”
“Kamron was amazing, will definitely book again! He was very communicative and sent pics each visit, and two of my cats needed meds and he had no issue giving them (a pill, liquid oral med, and asthma inhaler). Highly recommend!”

“Andre was an outstanding caregiver for our kitties! We adored the notes he included in our Rover cards along with many enjoyable photos! We had a nice meet and greet and appreciate Andre’s great communication.”
“Carla made some house visits to feed my cat while I was out of town. She was so reliable and kind, even though my cat isn’t the friendliest to others!! I am so grateful to her and would absolutely use her services again.”
“Megan did an incredible job - following instructions, sending cute photos and lovely messages to describe the visit - giving me great peace of mind during a long trip away. I will definitely be rebooking Megan in the future. Great job Megan! You are a life saver.”
“Grace is great with my two cats. I know they are well cared for with her feeding them. My very timid and scared younger cat even accepted her as someone to play with, a verty rare honor from him.”
“Dem did a good job with watching Pari our cat. She had pictures and notes in daily. She was on time and stayed the visit time. I am glad we had Demi to cat sit. We would use her again. Thank you!”

“I wish I could keep it a secret but my conscience compels me to say that Peggy was my luckiest and best find since relocating to Decatur. Both Chispa and I were delighted and impressed with her, her home and her Sparks. I know Chispa is in good and loving hands. Peggy is our new BFF.”
“I loveeeeeeeddd Josh! I was so nervous to leave my dog with someone other than family but Josh quickly became family for Saint. He sent constant updates with pictures and videos of Saint playing with friends and running around the yard. It helped me stay calm during the stay. I can't wait to send him back over there with his new friends. Thank you again so much Josh!”
“Thank you Cassandra for making Tashi feel welcome....he looked very happy in the photos. Since he will have an over night stay next week, daycare was a good way for him to get to know you and your place.”
“Luis was absolutely amazing with my yorkie pup Sadie she smell so good and was happy when I picked her up. I will definitely utilize their services in the future. Thanks again🥰”
“Sarah was wonderful with our dog, Rocco. It was his first time being away from us and he spent most of the day snuggling with Sarah! She was so sweet and kind with him, and I felt totally comfortable leaving him with her. We look forward to having her watch Rocco again!”
“Alannah H is absolutely wonderful with my fur child Yana. She treats Yana as if she is her own. I constantly get photos and communications regarding Yana. It is a relief to know that I found someone that I can just and someone that treats my fur child as if she was her own. Thank you Alannah!”
About: I’m a huge dog lover, there isn’t much that I’m more passionate about than dogs. I come from a big dog loving family. I’ve been a dog owner most of my life. Since I was about 8 I would study and research all I could about dogs and I’ve even trained pretty much every family dog we’ve. It was mostly the basics and cool tricks. Even til this day I enjoy teaching my pup new fun tricks I pretty much have open availability on weekends. I work through the week but I’m willing to help out with the pups through the week as well My pup has free roam in my house. Only place off limits is the kitchen but I like for her to be comfortable . My pup is crate trained but I allow her to stay out if I’ll only be gone for a few hours. Making sure the house is clean first
“Sydelle took such great care of Luna. She has a dog named Luna too and they started playing from the start. She was sweet responsive and dependable. She walked the dogs, sent me pics and even got Luna to eat which she only does when she feels comfortable. I was on vacation but if I’m ever back or move here I will hire her again for sure!”
“Javier and his wife were awesome with Sam. Ot was my first time using Rover and he helped me navigate the app. Sam enjoyed his day and played with Javier’s 2 dogs. He has a great back yard!! Lots of room to run and play”
About: I provide a safer and more relaxing experience for your pets — as well as a more worry-free time for you — than you'll find with many sitters and kennels who intermingle pets from different families. That practice unavoidably creates unpredictability and risk, which I eliminate by giving your pets their own private room. And since I only host a maximum of 4 clients at a time, I'm able to offer a level of loving attention and individualized care that isn't possible at large operations. I'm the guy you see at parties, in the corner talking to the dog or cat. I'm mature, responsible, and nice and I've had pets all my life. In fact, it's because of the many times I've faced the tricky and nerve-wracking challenge of finding great accommodations for all my own animals that I decided to offer this service to other pet lovers. I've worked as a boarder at 2 vet clinics. I've also got tons of experience caring for my own pets and those of friends and family, as well as countless strays and fosters. When your little ones are with me, you can truly and comfortably enjoy your time away, knowing my mission is to keep them very safe and happy. 🥰 A DEDICATED CARETAKER I don't go away to an office job, so I'm almost always home and free to build my schedule around serving my pet-guests, who are treated as if they were my own. 💬 GREAT COMMUNICATION You'll get photos, videos, and updates! (Unless you prefer not to.) And you can always feel welcome to check in. I want you to have peace of mind while you're away from your critters. 🏡🌳 A PARK-LIKE PROPERTY (see photos 🌺) We have a massive yard, with a large pond, a sidewalk all around it, and even an island accessed by a bridge. All of this is inside our fence, and this is where I'll be walking your dog(s), which, of course, is safer and more secure than walking them out on the streets. I also built a secure 100ft cable run with locking carabiners, which is available to dogs for extended (supervised) outside time, upon request. 🐶🐱 A PRIVATE SPACE JUST FOR YOUR PETS Your pets will never have to mix with unknown and unfamiliar animals, so you'll never have to worry over a risk of stressful interactions or dangerous altercations with strange dogs or cats. I carefully maintain several entirely separate zones... • Critter Den 1 — A single family of dogs gets this big, fun room to themselves. It's the biggest section of our basement, which I've converted into a pet haven. There's a comfy loveseat, a beanbag chair, dog beds, a dog house, rugs, blankets, and toys. • Critter Den 2 — Another large, private room in our converted basement. It's got a comfy chair, a small couch, dog beds, rugs, blankets, and toys. • Critter Den 3 — A cozy, private room with a beanbag chair, doggy beds, blankets, rugs, and toys. My quietest space, it's perfect for seniors, puppies, or generally laid-back dogs. • The Littles Lounge — One family of cats and/or smaller dogs (or a big dog of a certain disposition) can have our guest room, which I've turned into a fun retreat. Pets will enjoy a floor-to-ceiling custom cat tree, watching windows, a couch, pet beds, cat houses, toys, rugs, scratchers, and a litter box. • Main House — Our own pets live in a different section of the house and will always be kept completely separate from yours. So, from your pets' perspective, it'll be as if they're the only animals here! 🔐 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Each guest is equipped with a special QR Code tag, just in case. If scanned on any smart phone, your pet's details and my contact info will be displayed, and I'll get an alert with their GPS location. 🐰🐷🐭🦊 A HARDCORE ANIMAL LOVER 🐴🐮🐥🐟 I'm vegan, which I mention only because it's an indication that my life is largely focused on keeping all animals safe and happy, and this same philosophy will drive the way I treat yours. ❗️ EMERGENCY PLAN If a medical emergency arises, I'll take your pet(s) to The Village Vets 24-Hour Emergency, which is only 5.7 miles away, and keep you well informed.
“We were very lucky to have found Brooke! We needed a last minute sitter that could watch our pup for the entire day with a late-night pickup, and she was happy to accommodate us. She was very communicative throughout the stay, and it was such a relief knowing our dog was in good hands with all the pictures & updates that were sent to us. Brooke is an absolute gem - we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Kristen and Jason get 5 stars! Our puppy Blitz had a great time. She came home exhausted and napped for hours which means she burned a lot of energy! We appreciate the daily updates and photos. On the second day of returning, Blitz was very excited and ran to the door when arriving. Definitely recommend and will be dropping her off again!”
About: I am located in beautiful Belvedere park with lots of outdoor green space. For active pups, I have a large fenced in yard and the location is great for daily walks in the neighborhood. My 12 year old pup Leo passed away 🌈 recently and it has been a comfort to have furry friends in the house to keep me company! Being a dog lover who travels frequently, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog. I will be sure to keep your dog well fed, active, and loved while you are away. If you would like, I would love to send you pictures of your precious pup while you are away so you can share in their fun! I would be happy to schedule a meet and greet with your dog before your time away to discuss any special needs or care that your dog may require! I work 100% of the time remotely and can take your dog out during the work day for a stroll or potty break, or give them some playtime in the backyard. I currently live in a house with a large privacy fenced backyard for dogs to roam around and get exercise. Whether we are playing fetch or tug of war, there is always something to keep your pup entertained.
“I am a "new" dog owner and I was super stressed about finding a sitter that also boards....well I found that in LeRene. I couldn't ask for a more caring and communicative sitter. From the meet & greet to the drop off, and the pick-up, she was professional and most importantly, Kingsman loved her.”
About: I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m active, patient, and highly observant, which helps me quickly pick up on a dog’s energy, routines, and individual needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just a calm and consistent environment, I adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable. I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have experience caring for different sizes, ages, temperaments, and energy levels. I understand how important consistency, safety, and communication are for pet owners. I’m experienced with administering basic medications, sticking to feeding schedules, and making sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and care. What sets me apart is that I’m reliable, responsive, and genuinely enjoy building trust with both pets and owners. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Because I have a flexible day-to-day schedule, I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, and updates throughout the day—so your pet gets the care and presence they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate a lot of time and attention to the pets I care for. This allows me to be consistent with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m available on weekdays and weekends, and I can adapt to your dog’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. Whether that means early morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening playtime, I’m able to be reliable, responsive, and present. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for dogs in my home. I live alone in a spacious ground-floor duplex with easy outdoor access and a large courtyard right next to my unit, which makes bathroom breaks, fresh air, and playtime simple and stress-free. I aim to create a calm, structured, and welcoming environment where dogs can settle in comfortably and feel at home. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, energy level, and individual needs—whether that means active walks and play or a quieter, more relaxed environment. I also have access to a strong local dog community and nearby dog parks, so social dogs can enjoy safe play and interaction if that’s something they’re used to and enjoy. At the same time, I’m mindful of each dog’s temperament and always prioritize safety, supervision, and owner preferences. Because I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular updates, and plenty of care throughout the day so you can feel confident your dog is safe, comfortable, and in good hands.

About: I’m an experienced dog owner with two huskies of my own, and previously I had a Jack-Russel terrier I took on lots of walks, so I understand high-energy breeds, strong personalities, and the importance of structure, routine, and exercise. I have a 6 foot fence, that my huskies cannot jump, so if you have a dog that likes to jump, my fence can probably keep them contained in my backyard for their safety. I’m comfortable handling energetic dogs, leash manners, and dogs that need consistent exercise to stay happy and calm. Walks are never rushed—I tailor them to each dog’s energy level, weather conditions, and comfort. I also pay close attention to hydration, behavior cues, and overall well-being. Your dog will receive individual attention, affection, and calm supervision in a home environment. I take pet safety seriously and follow owner instructions closely, including feeding routines, medication schedules (if applicable), and house rules. I am also a mom to two humans, 7 years old and an older baby. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible for dog walking or drop-ins, but I may have my baby in stroller with me for walks, please let me know if that’s not ok. I recently quit my job at the CDC, I was a biologist, to spend time with my girls during their formative years. I take honesty and dependability very seriously so you need not worry about your pets or home in my care. Thanks for reading my profile. I am a stay-at-home mom, taking care of my huskies and kids. As long as you don’t mind me bringing my baby to walk alongside your dog in my stroller, I can walk your dog anytime of day during the week or weekends. I have a 6 foot tall, fenced-in backyard, so I am ideal boarding spot for high energy dogs. I have a 6 foot tall, fenced in backyard and 2 sweet husky ladies to keep your dog company in doors. I can crate your dog in my house if needed. I believe clear communication is key, so I provide updates, photos, and honest feedback during each booking. My goal is for you to feel confident and for your dog to feel secure, exercised, and cared for while you’re away.

“Elizabeth did such a great job walking my dog. She was attentive and took her on nice long walks. I was able to feel completely at peace knowing my dog was getting such focused and personal care. Elizabeth was also always excellent at communicating any changes and gave me daily updates on the walk. I highly recommend her and will continue to use her in the future!”
“Our elderly dog recently had procedures and Deedee was willing to accommodate to all his abilities and restrictions plus medications. We are so grateful for her care.”
“This was my first time having a dog walker and Solange was amazing. Worked very well with my leasing office and key situation while also doing great with my dog. I will choose Solange next time I need a dog walker!”

About: I’m a dog lover with 5+ years of hands-on animal care experience! 🐶 I have a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from Maryville College and a Master of Public Health from UAB. I’ve worked as a canine caretaker, veterinary assistant, and at animal shelters and spay/neuter clinics. I’m also a proud pet mom to a dog, two cats, and a bearded dragon! 🐾 I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, grooming, and medication support. I treat every pet like my own and love making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! Im a stay at home mom available 24/7. My dog goes on a walk three times a day. We have a dog park that I take her to and give her time to be outside and sniff. My pets are very well taken care of and get a lot of attention. My dog is crated when I leave as she is a escape artist and likes to take food off of the counter. However my animals sleep with me every night and gets plenty of cuddles.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life! Starting when I was in elementary school, I began pet-sitting for friends and neighbors. I cared for my dog, Zoe, for 15 years, before she passed away in 2019. I know how to care for senior animals who might need medication or struggle with sight/hearing or going to the bathroom. I’m accepting of any and all animals! I previously worked at a Doggy Daycare, which helped me gain experience with various dog breeds, sizes, and ages. I also gained invaluable knowledge about dog body language and the best ways to interact with anxious or shy dogs. Through working with Rover, I’ve gained a lot of experience working with cats and have learned to take a unique approach to each cat based off of their personality and temperament. I currently have full-time availability, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets that I sit. I also love taking lots of cute pictures to send to pet parents! I am open to new clients and can’t wait to build a bond with your pet/pets! I am currently available full-time. A day of pet care for me would be having one housesitting booked and a few drop-ins or walks. I would spend my time with the pet I’m housesitting for, when I’m not completing another booking, making sure they’re kept company and all their needs are met. When housesitting, I try to spend most of my time with the pet/pets, whether that means walks, playing, or simply lounging together. When doing walks/drop-ins and housesitting, I treat the owner’s house with the utmost respect.
“Carla is a warm, kind, affectionate person who genuinely cares about my puppy. She was on time, respectful of my home, and rules for my dog. I plan to use her again in the future. I feel lucky to have found her.”
About: (If you like your mom and your mom loves dogs) ;) It is not enough to love animals, you must also be honest, dependable, and reliable. *Housebroken dogs only. Cannot accept incontinent dogs* *Must be dog friendly* *Not best match for high energy dogs* I love, love, love taking care of animals and helping them feel safe and comforted while they are away from their family and may be nervous and/or scared. This is not a side hustle for me, but my main focus along with taking care of my dog and cat. I worked in animal rescue and fostering for 15 years and have had pets all my life. I am a certified pet sitter through Pet Sitters International. I will welcome your pets into my home and treat them as my own -they will be my first priority. My job is to help them feel happy, loved and calm while they are separated from their two-leggeds. And to give you peace of mind while you are away. I live in a house with a large yard, the back is completely fenced, and we also have a screened in porch that is great for sunning and relaxing. I am retired and now at home full time, except for when I leave to do in-home pet appointments for others, errands, etc. I have one dog, a senior Jack Russell Terrier. A pre-stay consult is REQUIRED at no cost. Therefore I cannot accept same day requests. Texts, pictures, and sometimes videos if I get something good, sent daily. For in home stays, if you drop off in the morning and pick up in the evening, a daycare charge is added for the last day. Hours: Drop offs and pick ups accepted at my home 8 am to 8 pm. Transport for your dog (5 mi radius from my home only) Nov - March: 9 am to 5 pm . Apr - Oct: 9 am to 7 pm. Cat care visits in your home: 9 am to 5 pm. Messages returned between 8 am and 8 pm.

I have a completely fenced and well maintained backyard. The fence is a 4 ft high chain link fence. Dogs can run and play freely off leash with my dog. For in-home cat care, I am VERY careful when going in and out and make sure everything is left clean and organized. I will interact/play with all cats who will let me!

Your pet’s safety and comfort is my priority, whether it be taking your dog to their favorite park or making sure your escape cat artist stays inside.
“Demi was awesome! She stepped in to walk my elderly father’s dog while he was recovering surgery. She came several times a day for over a week, was reliable, on-time and courteous, and great with our pet of course.”
About: I love animals but can’t have pets in my apartment so would appreciate sharing that love with your pet! I have been caring for a variety of pets since 2019, mostly dogs & cats (and the occasional bird!). I have experience with dogs of all sizes (from chihuahuas to Great Danes) and most ages. I have less experience with puppies but lots of experience with senior dogs. I have experience with high energy dogs that need multiple walks a day and dogs that struggle with mobility. I have experience with dogs who require medication. I have experience with cats of all temperaments. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. I have a fairly flexible schedule so am available during the day most days and on weekends. I have been regularly caring for my parents’ elderly Great Dane (11 years old now) since 2020. I am looking forward to spending more time caring for pets. I care for pets in their home environment according to the standards set by the owners. I am very conscious of varying family rules on things such as furniture and am happy to adhere to those expectations. I prefer to stick to whatever schedule the pet(s) are used to (regular walk times, regular feeding times, etc).
About: As an animal lover and dedicated pet sitter, I understand the joy and comfort that comes with knowing your beloved pets are in good hands. That's why I'm committed to providing personalized, loving care that's tailored to each pet's unique needs and personality. With my own experiences as a pet owner, I know how hard it can be to leave your furry friends behind - that's why I go above and beyond to build trust, provide emotional support, and create a sense of calm and comfort for both you and your pets. Whether it's a customized playtime routine or simply a gentle cuddle, I'm dedicated to making your pets feel loved, safe, and cherished while you're away. **Please note for boarding overnight: I’m only accepting female dogs up to 40lbs. I will decline any overnight requests that don’t meet this criteria** As a remote worker and animal lover, I've found the perfect way to combine my passion for pets with my flexible lifestyle. With my schedule, I can take breaks whenever needed to visit your furry family members, showering them with love, playtime, and snuggles. Whether it's a mid-day walk or simply spending quality time, I cherish the moments I get to bring joy and comfort to pets while their owners are away. When I'm working from home, I love welcoming dogs into my space, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere for them to feel right at home. As a dedicated pet sitter, I offer flexible care options to suit your pet's needs. I can welcome your furry dog friends into my own home, where they'll have access to a spacious, fenced-in backyard perfect for playtime and exercise. They’ll stay with me in my separate enclosed office as I work so your pets play and relax nearby. Whether in my home or yours, I'm committed to providing a safe, loving space for your beloved pets. Alternatively, I can visit your home to provide personalized care in a familiar environment. Either way, rest assured that your pets will receive top-notch attention and care.
About: I have been the proud fur mom of several animals over the years. Now that I am working from home, I have the flexibility to help others care for theirs. I have experience with administering oral medication and working with high energy pets. If there are special requests I am more than happy to discuss what is needed. I also have experience with taking care of cats, so if there are extra animals I am more than happy to care for them as well. I am available mornings, afternoons, evenings and nights during the week and have open flexibility on the weekends. Having someone you can trust to care for your pet is a huge relief, I promise that your fur baby (or babies!) will be in good hands and feel the love when you are not able to be there! Im currently working from home with schedule flexibility, so your pet will have the time and attention they need while you are away. Whether it’s an early morning walk or time needed after dinner, I can assist. I like to keep to the same schedule that the pet is used to. I ensure pets are fed and walked at times they are used to. I make sure to spend time with pets after feeding and then take them out before leaving. We currently do not have pets in our home, so if boarding is needed you do not need to worry about other pets. We also have a large fenced in backyard and live in a dog-friendly neighborhood that includes a lake with lots of ducks and geese, a fun time for everyone :)
“Anna has cared for our pets for several years now and she is wonderful. Her pictures and updates are always fun and informative and I never worry about the care our dog Marty and our elderly cats receive. She is a gem that I am so grateful to have.”

“Katie took excellent care of Hazel! She sent me daily updates and pictures. Before Hazel’s stay, we had the chance to meet, and Katie ensured that she was fully informed about Hazel’s needs and personality.”
“Marissa is awesome! Super friendly, great with communication, and our dog loves her + Zoey! One of our favorite babysitters and I'm always relaxed when we're out of town, knowing our pup is in great hands.”
“Anya had a great time and Logan and his family were wonderful hosts. She is excited to stay again with Nico sometime in the future, thank you so much for taking care of my baby girl!”
“Lauren was great. She was very accommodating with our last minute request & very open & honest, answering all of our questions & helping us feel at ease. She sent pics & kept us up to date on how the dogs were doing, letting them snuggle on the couch or the bed. They got to run around & play in her awesome yard, & came back just as happy as when we left them. She had space to keep multiple dogs separately (but only took our dogs for the weekend), or was willing to help socialize our pups in a safe, controlled environment if we wanted. It was a great stay & the dogs loved it. Thanks Lauren!”
“Wonderful couple ! This was my first time using the app , they made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog while I went out of town. Javier kept me informed and sent pictures my entire booking ! I will definitely be booking again”
“Ayelet was so wonderful. She sent me a bunch of photos and videos of Booker, and it made me feel so much better leaving him knowing he was having a good time. He had so much fun playing with Luke, and I’m so glad he was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be back next time we have to go out of town!”
“Isabella was fantastic and took such great job of our pup!! We are so thankful he had such a nice place to call home while we were out of town. Super responsive and provided great updates. Would highly recommend!”
“Hope and her husband are amazing pet sitters. We had to leave Jack for a week, and I didn’t feel good about leaving him at a boarding facility for that long knowing how impersonal and lonely it can get outside of play hours. I was nervous at first of leaving him for that long with anyone outside of family, but Hope and Jeff were amazing!!! I got daily photos and videos, and I could tell Jack was having the time of his life. He was so well taken care of for which I’m grateful. Will definitely be thinking of Hope anytime I need a sitter for Jack.”
“Scout absolutely loves staying with Lerene and her pup, Max! They are the best play mates. Lerene is so sweet, flexible and accommodating the past visits that Scout has stayed with her. Her home is spacious and the backyard is maintained with a fence as well - perfect for the dogs to roam around and play. She sends us updates and photos when we check in with her. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Jax is always wonderful! She takes such great care of our furry babies, keeping us updated and making sure everything goes smoothly. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pets are in reliable hands. Highly recommend!”
“My Kasper was so loved and cared for. Trinise was the perfect host and her daughter made my baby her new best friend. I cannot say enough good things about the care he received. My dog has a new surrogate family when we need care. 🥰❤️❤️❤️🥰”
“Alvin did an awesome job taking care of my boy Oscar. He allowed me to have a meet and greet for him and Oscar prior to the booking. Oscar warmed up to him fairly quick and that’s not his normal. I felt it was a match from there. Alvin did a great job in communicating with me throughout Oscar’s day. I definitely plan on using him again for future bookings. EC”
“Thank you for being SUPER SUPER AMAZING to our sweet girl! We’re not sure she actually wanted to come home when we picked her up! Truly appreciate all your updates and the great care you provided! I know she can’t wait to come back and see you and Albert!! We would give you 10 ⭐️ s if we could!!”
“Josh has been absolutely fantastic with Bondi. He’s watched him for several days of daycare, an overnight stay, and most recently for six nights while I was traveling internationally. Every time, I’ve had complete peace of mind knowing Bondi was in great hands. Bondi absolutely loves spending time with Josh and his dog besties Phil and Buzz. Throughout every stay, Josh sends plenty of pictures and videos, so I always know Bondi is happy, having fun, and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Bondi with Josh again (and will!) and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter.”
“Chris took excellent care of my dog, Circe. He was very attentive and patient, and I could tell that she was happy and comfortable during her stay. He regularly took the dogs out to a large park, which Circe really enjoyed and benefited from a lot. Circe got along very well with Chris’s two dogs, and it was clear that they interacted in a calm and positive way. Chris also sent frequent photo updates, which made me feel very reassured while I was away. It was obvious that he truly cares about the dogs he looks after. I felt completely comfortable leaving Circe with him and would absolutely book with Chris again. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Owen took great care of my fur baby while I was out of town for the weekend! He has a great property that I know my dog loved to explore and run around on. He sent daily updates with videos/pictures that made me feel like she was in great hands. She also came home very tired, which is a plus ;) thanks again Owen!!”
“Kevin was incredibly accommodating. Before Maxwell's overnight he agreed to meet up and have a play date before the actual care time. He was great in sending pictures and asking clarifying questions about Max's tendencies. High ranking for Kevin and hope to have a need to work with him again. We all thank you! 💕 Woofs & Snuggles, Maxwell”
