“Shirley has taken care of Ripley several times, and she has formed a genuine relationship with our little boy. The photos she sends every day as well as her comments show that Ripley enjoys staying with her. We have full trust and confidence in Shirley as the best person for Ripley when we are out of town. She cares for him and his well-being, physically and emotionally. Thank you, Shirley! Dagmar and Mohsin”
“This was our puppy’s first time being away from us and Connie helped it go smoothly! She was great at sending a couple pictures while we were away, and when we picked him up, he was clearly very happy and comfortable in her home. She’s warm and welcoming.”
“Tamara had great communication and made me feel at ease since it was my first time using this service. My dog loved her stay, and came home tired and happy! Will definitely book again when I need it. Thank you!”
“Bailey is a caring, knowledgeable and experienced pet owner and caretaker. Freddy was well-cared for and I was sent several photos during the day to let me know how he was doing. Bailey was sensitive in incorporating Freddy into her pack of two dogs. I felt very comfortable and confident that Freddy was well cared for. Thank you!”
“Sarah was great. She took very good care of my dog and cat and kept me updated with photos and recaps of their activities. She obviously loves animals and I felt my boys were very safe in her care--I recommend her highly.”
“Angelina was amazing with our senior dog! She watched our dog for four days while we took a quick vacation and Angelina sent fantastic photos throughout the trip. She gave her belly rubs and comforted her through thunderstorms. It was such a relief knowing our dog was comfortable and well cared for while we were away. I will definitely be reaching out to Angelina again for our next vacation!”
“John did a great job with our 125lb Bernese Mtn Dog, Georgia. From the pictures we received every day, it was clear Georgia was getting a lot of love and attention. She had a fenced in back yard and a very friendly playmate. We definitely plan to use John again!”
“Angelica is amazing leaving our 2 fur babies is never easy, but our 8 year old Morkie had never been anywhere else besides grandmas and she did amazing job with our boy. With our Goldendoodle he had a blast! Angelica is caring and thoughtful. I would recommend to all my friends and family members. Thank you for what you do!”
“Amazing! My doggy’s were so happy. One of my dogs had a cone and he was extra cared for it was really appreciated! The dogs came home with a goodie bag and everything. Will definitely book again!”
“Katherine and her family are beyond wonderful. They took such great care of our dog Rosie that at times we felt she was the one who was on vacation! Knowing your dog is safe and well cared for when you’re away is important. Knowing that she’s safe, well cared for AND loved is a gift.”
“Janeth is great at keeping in touch. She sent me pictures and videos of how my dog was doing frequently. She was a great communicator and pleasant to talk with. I would recommend her to anyone who needs their dog taken care of.”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, comfort level, and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I adapt to their needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely enjoy being around dogs. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, walks, routines, administering basic medications if needed, and providing updates/photos so you feel at ease while away. My goal is to create a warm, low-stress environment where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy — not just watched. It would truly be an honor to care for your dog and give them the same love and attention every pet deserves. Daily and evening care including walks, feedings, playmate, bath time and bed time with any other activities including the dog park when availabe based on weathe. Pets are free to roam while I am home and crated when I need to run errands. They are treated like the rest of the family.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of hiring Emily to take care of Mel, my beloved dog, while I was away. From the initial meet-and-greet to the daily updates during my trip, I was thoroughly impressed with the level of care and attention provided. Emily took the time to understand Mel's routine, preferences, and any quirks that might need special attention. It was evident that they genuinely love dogs and have a strong understanding of their needs. Every day, I received updates and photos that put my mind at ease, showcasing how happy and comfortable my pup was in their care. Not only did Emily provide regular meals and exercise, but they also engaged in fun activities and even took Mel on walks to the river walk. I could tell that my dog was getting plenty of love and attention, which is so important when you're away from home. Upon my return, Mel seemed relaxed and happy, which reassured me that I made the right choice by entrusting Emily with their care. I highly recommend Emily to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. They exceeded my expectations and truly treated Mel as if they were their own. I will definitely be reaching out for future sitting needs! Thank you, Emily, for your outstanding service!”
“Everything went very well. Lucy seemed happy and well taken care of. Malchom, Nicole and kids do a great job letting Lucy be part of the family. I’m sure Lucy enjoys being with the children. Would definitely keep using their services.”
“Eniya is very nice. She clearly likes dogs and enjoyed having our fury baby. He came back happy. She was very fast to respond to communications. She was VERY flexible with pick up and drop off, which was greatly appreciated. I would have appreciated more check ins from her, with pics, to tell us how he’s doing.”
“Kyla tood great care of Winston. From the pictures, he had access to a good size yard that help release his puppy energy and need to play/explore. I received regular updates with photos. She was also very good with questions. She is also very experienced with dogs, especially high-energy puppies. I will definitely use her again.”
“Regan was great! She sent plenty of pics and updates. She took amazing care of both Joe Willie and LuLu Bug and I’m not sure they wanted to come home ? Will definitely bring my furbabies back to Regan next time I need an overnight or have to go out of town. ?”
“Lorraine has taken care of our 2 dogs multiple times now and is fantastic! She takes such great care of them and is in constant contact with pics and updates so we can be away and have no worries.”

“Brittney was absolutely amazing! Not only did she follow directions exactly, she also took the initiative to address some unexpected situations that arose. She handled feeding, watering, and doing litter for my three cats as well as chasing one down twice a day to administer medicine. The posts Brittney provided were perfect at reassuring an anxious cat mommy, giving peace of mind so I could relax and enjoy my vacation. This was my first experience with her, but I’m already planning to contact her for my next trip. Thanks so much, Brittney!”
“The weekend of my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding, Angelina provided care to their cat as well as my three cats, staying overnight for two nights at my home. Prior to that weekend, she came over to meet the cats and myself and run through their daily care routine. Even my shy cat Brody seemed curious about her. Wedding weekend, she was great at providing updates through text and photos throughout her stay, and I appreciated her attention to cleaning up their litter boxes and feeding mats one more time before she left. She has a gift for working with animals and is trustworthy and easy to communicate with. I will definitely use her again!”
About: I've had cats since I was a kid and know that they all have very different personalities. I'm happy to drop in to feed and play with your cats when you can't be there. I've watched numerous cats for friends and families over the years and enjoy having fun with them, or being patient with them if they nervous or shy.
About: I have over 4 years of experience in dog walking and overnight dog sitting, and grew up taking care of our family dog. Moreover, I am experienced in senior care, in dogs with special needs (deafness, autoimmune disease, etc), and high energy dogs! I have a very flexible schedule with availability during typical work hours, weekends and holidays. I am more than happy to help out in early mornings! When pet sitting, I closely adhere to your pet’s routine to keep them happy and healthy. I am always mindful when walking to stay away from busy roads and prioritize pet safety.
About: Cats have always been a part of my life, and I’ve cared for them from kittenhood through their senior years. Living with cats has taught me how to understand their unique personalities, respect their boundaries, and earn their trust. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they need while maintaining their normal routine. I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats and will treat your furry family member with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own.
About: I spent all of high school volunteering at my local animal shelter, caring for both dogs and cats. I have experience with newborn kittens to senior cats with feline leukemia. I assisted in finding kittens foster homes during peak season and helping some of the more fearful cats open up.
“Aimee was a great drop-in sitter for Mr. Cat. She was punctual and good with the cat. Aimee sent pictures of MC every day and was fast to communicate. I recommend Aimee for your petsitting !”
“Grace was wonderful with our four cats! She was so patient with one of our cats who needs to take oral mediation twice a day and gave us a lot of updates on how it was going. We don’t travel often so it was a relief to know our boys were taken care of!”
“This is our second time having Rebecca help us with our kitties while we’re gone. She does an amazing job with communication and lets us know promptly if anything around the house needs our attention when we get home. All of our cats are happy when we get home and it’s clear that she provided them with awesome care during her drop ins. We will absolutely go to her next time we need care!”
“Rebecca is an amazing sitter! She is attentive and thoughtful with my cat. I really appreciate the descriptions she leaves me after her visits. I never have any questions because she is so thorough!”
“Jessie was great with my cats and even accommodated a last minute fish feeding request that I forgot to include! She was flexible and I felt very comfortable with her monitoring one of my cats that was under the weather.”
“Estefanía took awesome care of my kitty Moji! She was always on time to the drop-in, sent plenty of photos, and very quickly converted my shy scaredy cat to her usual sweet self. Thanks Estefanía!”
“Lexi is amazing! I was fortunate to find her in a last-minute situation, and she enthusiastically took on three drop-in visits with less than 24 hours’ notice. My timid rescue beagle warmed up to her immediately, she followed very specific instructions perfectly, and I will definitely be using her services again!”

“Luisa helps us to feel like our Murphy is safe and cared for while we are at work. She’s great at updating pictures throughout the day and he LOVES it there. They even let him borrow a toy to keep until next daycare. The best!”
About: I’m currently in training to become an NBCAAM Board Certified Animal Massage Therapist. I’ve been dog-sitting and house-sitting for clients locally for the past 15 years. I’m an avid animal advocate and treat others pets like my own. In my spare time as a health coach, I enjoy researching pet wellness and nutrition. My clients know when they go out of town that their pet is in good hands. My current schedule and availability for pet-sitting is open, as I complete additional training for health coaching. I also work remote but have flexibility on the weekdays and I’m open on weekends. I provide care for your pets based off the directions and specifications provided. All pets are completely unique and have different needs and levels of care. I enjoy providing extra attention and play to dogs/cats who have anxiety. This can get overlooked when families are busy in their routines, and is so important for pet wellness. I have many friends who have pets with “behavioral issues,” that end up being alleviated with some extra attention, love and play.
About: I have raised and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, all sizes and ages, several with serious medical needs. As a child, my family bred and raised Irish Setters and kept any pup that was not 100% healthy for adoption. Therefore I have experience with all aspects of pet care and I have raised my kids to do the same. We are Tara (49yr), Jaden (15yr) and Alia (12yr) and have been dog sitting for friends and family for years and really enjoy hosting pups to play with and pamper on the weekends since unfortunately we are not home enough during the week to provide adequate care and attention to a full time pup. Our three kitties are very accustomed to dogs but we have plenty of room to separate them if they overstimulate your doggy. Our three level home, plus large back yard, will give your pup plenty of room to play inside and out! We typically run and play in the backyard during potty breaks and go out for several walks a day. The yard is only 90% fenced so I have several 50ft leashes around the yard to provide the illusion of freedom while maintaining safety. If your pup is high energy, they can also play with the neighbor’s dogs or we can take a trip to the dog park so they can socialize and run with other pups. I assure you they will get lots of cuddles and attention and I will send photos and vids of your pup to you throughout their stay! I am available for boarding in my home on the weekends, beginning Friday evening through Monday morning. I can also board at your home from Saturday morning through Sunday evening. I will treat your pet like a member of the family! If they get muddy in the backyard I have no problem giving them a bath and brushing them. They are welcome on the furniture and will not be left alone while they are in my care.
“Emily was a great sitter. She was super easy to work with. She had a great backyard setup. Our pup, Bandit, loves water and Emily had a doggy pool all set up for him. Would book with Emily again.”
“Michelle was great!! I feel so lucky to have found her on the site!! She went above and beyond, sending me pictures and updates throughout the day. Also, she was willing and patient to work with my dog even though she is still a puppy. I truly felt relieved to know she was in Michelle's hands! I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Dezmond was so wonderful! He kept our dog happy and took such good care of her. He was great with letting her get comfortable with his pups before I left for the day, and she came home happy and wonderfully exhausted.”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets since elementary school, especially dogs. Family friends and neighbors have had me walk, feed, play with, and even medicate their dogs. There isn't a dog or pet that I wouldn't be happy to handle! Not only am I good at what I do, but I care as well. Pets are family too and I most definitely understand that. I am doing a bit of work for my father around the house and our local store, but it is all very flexible, so your pet could be my number one priority. I am free to care take for dogs almost all days during the work week. I have a great yard for dogs to run around in. I live in a very suitable and safe home for pets with mature family members who are gentle and could care just as good I will. I even live right near a dog store that I would be happy to take them to as well.
“Karen takes such great care of my baby. She is so kind, loving, attentive. I really appreciate her excellent communication, frequent updates, and professionalism. We can’t wait to see her again!”
“I can’t recommend Mary enough! She stepped in last minute to take care of our pup, Monty, for a full day, and we couldn’t be more grateful. From the moment we met her, she was welcoming and friendly, giving us a tour of her lovely home, which put us at ease knowing Monty would be well cared for. Mary took Monty out for a walk, fed him, and even has grassy areas in her backyard for him to enjoy. She kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages, which we really appreciated. It was clear he was having a great time! If you’re looking for someone to care for your pup, look no further than Mary. She truly is fantastic!”
“Rhae was very responsive, kept me updated during my dogs' stay, my dogs seemed happy! She took the time to walk them a few times while they were there just for the day. Very easy to work with, definitely recommend.”
“Even though she was sick, Kayla took great care of my 9 week old puppy today. She was great about keeping me informed, sharing photos and videos. I was impressed how much knowledge she demonstrated and shared about puppy behavior, my dog’s breed characteristics and nutrition, I feel confident leaving my puppet with Kayla will help her socialization tremendously!”
“Carmen was amazing. I was totally at peace to leave my 3 month old puppy with her. She was very responsive and gave regular updates throughout the day. Oreo had an amazing time with her. Thanks Carmen!!”
“Robert was very welcoming, patient, and helpful for both me and my dog, Maya, as this was our first booking ever! He took his time to let her get comfortable and introduce her with the other pups he had in house. Allowed me to be just as comfortable leaving her for the day! Came back to pick up one happy and VERY tuckered out pup! Loved the pictures! Looked like we both had a great experience booking with Robert!🐶 We will be scheduling again soon!”
About: I'm an art history professor at the University of Chicago which means I have a flexible schedule for walks and drop in visits. I enjoy running and love taking active dogs for a jog around the neighborhood. I really love exploring the outdoors with my dogs, so if your pup is up for it, we'll go for a hike too! I've lived with dogs my entire life and have experience with very young pups to geriatrics and am comfortable administering medication. I have one smallish and one large dog at home and one cat, but I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I also have experience with exotics and small animals and have cared for geckos, hamsters, guinea pigs, birds, chinchillas...even wildlife! I volunteer as a resident animal keeper at the Willowbrook Wildlife Center. I'm an all around animal lover, excited to meet your pets! I currently work from home a few days a week and would love to break up my day walking your dog! I’m happy to take high energy dogs for runs as well - just ask! I understand schedules and routines are very important to our pets. I will always do my best to stick to as close to your regular routine as I can when staying with your pets.

“James has been great. He responded to us right away and came over quickly to meet our dog. Our pup took to him from the very first meeting. James is punctual and attentive, providing us deatiled updates on how the walks go. Whenever we need walks for our little guy, we'll reach out to James right away.”
About: Hello I’m Marine I’m a bit new to Rover but that doesn’t reflect my experience. I've been an animal lover for as far back as I can remember, and have cared for my own dogs and cats throughout my life. I have experience dog walking at various shelters, pet sitting, fostering animals, taking my own dog to pet therapy visits at senior centers, and volunteer transporting injured animals to get care through a local response group. I'm familiar with the needs of senior dogs, and feel comfortable administering medication if needed. If you work odd hours or need evening drop in visits or walks I’m your person! There are some weeks I have earlier day time availability as well, it doesn’t hurt to ask. Looking forward to meeting your dog soon! I have reliable transportation to get to you. I look forward to getting to know your dog and making sure they are having fun, getting exercise, and lots of attention! I will take great care to be respectful of your dog and of your home. I look forward to discussing in detail your care instructions and will follow them closely because I like to provide the kind of service I would want for my own pets.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Having owned and cared for both dogs and cats throughout my life, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their different personalities, routines, and needs. I genuinely enjoy building trust with each pet and creating a positive, stress-free experience for them while their owners are away. Whether your pet loves playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and caring companion nearby, I’m committed to providing attentive, loving care that helps them feel right at home. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. As a recent college graduate, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize the pets I care for throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and pet care has always been a natural part of my life. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, play sessions, or evening cuddles, I can provide consistent attention and care while keeping pet owners updated and giving them peace of mind while they’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as possible by sticking to their usual routine and giving them the attention they need. Whether that means energetic playtime, long walks, lots of cuddles, or simply providing calm companionship, I adapt my care to each pet’s personality and preferences. I make safety a top priority, ensure they have plenty of fresh water, exercise, and enrichment, and keep owners informed with updates and photos throughout their stay or visit. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I strive to provide dependable, compassionate care every time.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life from little pups to gentle older dogs. I believe that dogs deserve the best care in the world. I’m a teacher and currently on summer break so I have an open schedule to help you walk your dog and care for them when you need. Whether it’s a big walk or a short walk I will take care of your dog! I’ll give them the time and attention they need during our walk to make sure that they are taken care of.
“Aimee treated my senior pup very well. She came exactly when she said she would and took good care of Paris. She sent me a pic, too. I have met Aimee in person and she is a very kind and compassionate person. Will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve owned two Pitbulls who I hold very close to my heart and have dog sat for friends, family members and neighbors. Some dog breeds I’ve worked with are Pitbulls, Retrievers, mini Aussie doodles, labradoodles, and standard poodles. I am currently Dog/cat CPR certified. I’m currently working part time and taking classes at COD. My hours are: Monday 6:00am-12:00pm, Tuesday:6:00am-3:00pm, Wednesday: 6:00am-3:00pm, Thursday: 11:30am-1:00pm. I can do some Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays as well some current days I’ll be gone are July 17-19, and August 21-24 but other than that if you need help on Friday, Saturday or a Sunday please don’t hesitate to reach out. When it comes to taking care of pets - I care for them like they are my own. I make sure they are well cared for, fed, brushed, and I monitor overall healthiness. I report any changes in health or energy to their family. I’ve also given my clients a text letting them know I’ve arrived and when I’ve left, as well as a photo/video updates of their dog. When a client’s dog has medicine - I am skilled at helping administer the medicine so dogs feel comfortable. I monitor food and water change water and add when necessary or according to schedule. I clean up if there happened to be an accident such as potty or throw up, properly disposing of waste. I provide walks for exercise and believe in positive reinforcement. Play time is important so I provide games - such as chase or catch - to keep their minds and body active. I make sure their paws are clean after play/walks and wipe their paws when they come in the house. When I leave, I do safety checks to make sure I’ve properly lock up such as double checking to make sure the door is locked and if there’s a gate double checking to make sure the gate is closed and locked.
“Tamara is so patient with our anxious dog! Our dog warmed up so quickly to Tamara and its a relief knowing our pup will be looking forward to walks while we are away at work. Tamara sends great updates and leaves notes to let us know how our dog is doing while we are at the office. She even came for a meet and greet to make sure our dog felt safe with her before her first walk.”
“I’m so thankful for My’Anna! She is reliable, kind, and clearly loves caring for animals. She has helped me immensely with being able to walk my pup while I’m at work and has able to navigate challenges with her leash reactivity. She always makes sure to update me if there’s any issues or if everything went perfect. She goes above and beyond whether it be dealing with my neighbors or my building to ensuring my pup is getting a good walk and has water when they come back. It gives me such peace of mind knowing my pup is in such caring hands. I highly recommend My’Anna to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely passionate about dogs.”
“Jessica is wonderful! She has been very patient with our young, energetic (and sometimes poorly behaved) pit bull. She also has been patient with me, my husband, and our frequently changing schedule. Thank you for being so great and dependable!”
About: I have had pets from dogs, cats, fish, birds, and small rodents and loved them all. I am open minded about other caged animals besides dogs but would prefer no cats as my husky dog has a high prey drive. I am a big animal lover and would love to provide a loving temporary home for your pets. I am a stay at home mom who is available for all day care. I already take care of my own pets and it fits perfectly into my life. I have a fenced yard and a husky dog who will make great company. I am also willing to travel to your home if it makes you feel more comfortable.
About: I have over 4 years of experience in dog walking and overnight dog sitting, and grew up taking care of our family dog.

“Alex does great with our 5 month old puppy that already weighs 100 pounds, it helps so much he adds training tips to their walk as I am disabled and need pup to always stay in heal on my left. Alex does a great job teaching him on the walks!”
About: I have ample experience dog-sitting, dog walking, and caring for animals. I love learning about dog grooming techniques in my free time. I have experience administering oral medication to dogs, driving with dogs in the vehicle, and basic grooming techniques like bathing, blow-drying, and brushing. This is my summer job, so I have lots of time during the day to care for your pup! I'm available mostly during the weekdays for walks and drop-ins, and some weekends for dog-sitting, so I am a good fit for you if you need someone to take care/check on your dog during the work day. I make sure I work with owners to determine how their dog likes to be walked, as well as what is the safest option for them (harness, prong collar, etc.), and I always uphold what the owners have decided. I am comfortable driving with pets in the car as well. I have experience crating dogs as well, if that is something your pup needs.
About: I am very caring and compassionate for animals and pets. I have a cat of my own named Bruni and he is my best friend. Attentive and reliable pet care is assured with me as your pet sitter! I work as a teacher so my morning and afternoons are busy up until 3:30pm. However, I am available after those hours. I do have days off due to breaks, for example, winter break, where I can be reliable all day during those times. I have a cat of my own that I attend to 24/7. Therefore, I am very familiar with pets’ needs. I will assure you great communication and punctuality.

“Angelina is fantastic with Griffey! She is super communicative, punctual, and makes me feel at ease knowing he is in good hands. Love the updates and photos too; it’s clear she really cares. Highly recommend!!”
About: Experienced, Thoughtful Care for Dogs of All Sizes With 15+ years of experience caring for dogs and two lovable and furry 85 pound dogs of my own, I’m very comfortable with all from active large breed to gentle senior companions. I’ve also spent years caring for small dogs (including pups around 10 pounds), so I’m used to adjusting walks, playtime, and care to fit each dog’s size, personality, and pace. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re the adventurous “let’s walk forever” type, the neighborhood squirrel patrol officer, or the happy couch companion who prefers a slower stroll and extra belly rubs. I take pet care seriously and prioritize routine, safety, and consistency. I always double check collars and harnesses before walks, follow feeding schedules carefully, and make sure each dog feels comfortable and secure in their environment. My goal is to keep your dog’s day feeling as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet owners, so I’m happy to provide photo and message updates during walks or visits so you know your dog is happy and well cared for. Services I Offer • Dog walking • Drop-in visits • Overnight pet sitting • Feeding and medication administration if needed • Playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection I treat every dog I care for as if they were part of my own family. Trust is incredibly important when it comes to your pets, and I’d love the chance to meet you and your dog to make sure it’s the right fit. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine. I currently care for two large dogs of my own, so regular walks, feeding schedules, and outdoor time are built into my day. Because of that, adding walks or visits for other dogs fits seamlessly into my schedule. As a student, my schedule varies slightly week to week, but it also provides flexibility that allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on what works best for each dog’s routine. I’m very intentional about planning my day so that pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and care. I understand how important routine and reliability are for both dogs and their owners, so I always make sure feeding schedules, walk times, and any special instructions are followed closely. My goal is to provide dependable care that keeps your dog comfortable and happy while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. Dogs tend to feel most relaxed in their own environment, so I make sure to follow their normal schedule for walks, feeding, playtime, and rest. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and energy level whether they prefer an active walk, playtime, or a slower pace with plenty of affection. I always make sure fresh water is available, feeding instructions are followed carefully, and collars or harnesses are secure before walks. I also understand how important trust is when someone is entering your home to care for your pet. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so owners know their dog is happy and well cared for. My goal is always to make sure your dog feels safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.

“Katherine and her family are beyond wonderful. They took such great care of our dog Rosie that at times we felt she was the one who was on vacation! Knowing your dog is safe and well cared for when you’re away is important. Knowing that she’s safe, well cared for AND loved is a gift.”

“Eniya is very nice. She clearly likes dogs and enjoyed having our fury baby. He came back happy. She was very fast to respond to communications.
