“I was impressed how Sarah kept me abreast on how my dog was doing and with pictures. That made it more personable and helped to relieve any anxiety I had being away. She showed that she cared and that meant a lot. I highly recommend Sarah for boarding needs.”
“Mocha has found her home away from home! We are so pleased with the care our girl Mocha received with Nicole and her family. After seeing the pics and updates, my son was afraid Mocha would not want to come home with us! She was loved and treated as a part of their family. I have already asked if it would be ok to become a repeat client. Best choice ever!!!!”
“Aida sent pictures daily and made sweet observations about our pup, letting me know she sees him for who he is! She showed enormous patience and understanding. Will definitely rebook!”
“Meagan, Chris, and pups, Butter, and Lucy took great care of Ozzie. Ozzie does not always warm up to strangers immediately but felt at home with them burrowing under their blankets and sleeping in their pup beds. They provided daily report of Ozzie antics and photos keeping me posted. Meagan really loved Ozzie and animals in general, and adjust to them easily. It was evident Ozzie enjoyed his staycation. We will definitely board Ozzie at their place in the future.”
“Michelle was absolutely amazing with my baby! She watched her for two nights while I was away on business travel, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, responded promptly, and every single picture she sent had my baby smiling! 🥹❤️ I could tell she was safe, happy, and getting plenty of activity and attention. Michelle also had all of my baby’s things organized and ready to go when I arrived for pickup, which I really appreciated. It gave me so much peace of mind being away. I would definitely trust Michelle with my baby again! 🐾💕 Book with her.”
“Jessica's place was great stay for my dog. I loved her cute back yard and that she's right across the street from a park. I also appreciate the one on one attention my pup received. Thank you for loving on my girl while we were away.”
“Demetrius watched our dog Taz and quickly became one of his favorite people!!! We got updates throughout the day about how well they were doing together. It usually takes Taz a long time to warm up to people, leading us to consider Demetrius a dog whisperer!!! We are so grateful for him and look forward to bringing Taz back to stay with him and Sebastian again in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Shanikki was great! Watched Coal over the weekend, and I could tell from the start he'd have a good time and be safe under her care. Space was more than accommodating for my dog, and she showed him a lot of love and attention to help manage his separation anxiety. Also had great communication and updates on him with very prompt responses. Will definitely book again. ✨️”
“After multiple sitters canceling, I found Rover and Danielle, who was happy to watch Remi at the last minute. The universe knew what it was doing, as Danielle and Remi bonded the moment they met. As he spent the majority of his life as a puppy mill papa, Remi can be challenging. As a teacher and a mom, Danielle had the skills and patience to work with him. She kept us updated throughout the weekend and it was easy to see the Remi was happy and content. I’m fairly certain Remi didn’t want to come home !! We couldn’t be happier to have found someone to care for our dog like one of her own! Next time we need somebody to care for our pup, she will absolutely be our first call!”
“Anna & Christian were great! They were very accommodating to Nahla. They did a meet and greet to make sure she would be comfortable during her stay. They were very communicative and sent updates and pics. They made sure Nahla was comfortable despite her having allergy flare ups. They had no problem giving her medication. I appreciate the care they provided. I would definitely recommend.”
“Fatty had the absolute best time staying with her family. He was showered with affection, got tons of cuddles, and even got treated to pup cups. He loved them so much and we are so happy he has an open invitation to return anytime. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will love their dog like family!”
“My dog and I love Kyra! She was responsive, kind and eager to meet all of my dog’s needs! He came home tired and happier than ever! Can’t wait to book her again!”
“We just picked Coal up from a day with Rich. Appreciate having a safe place and someone kind and understanding to watch him. Will be booking with Rich again.:)”
“April took great care of our dog Charlie! She was very attentive and was flexible with some last minute medication our dog needed. She was also on top of keeping us updated throughout his stay.”
“Veronica did an excellent job with my pup Noah. I appreciate the pre-stay visit to meet her and her husband, it gave Noah a chance to sniff around and get comfortable in their home. When I dropped him off for his stay, he wasn’t nervous at all. Veronica is definitely a dog lover, and she took care of my little guy just like he was one of her own pups. Lots of socialization and play time, Lots of human love, Lots of update pictures and texts. I will definitely use her services again when traveling!”
“Lia was AMAZING. If I could give her 10 stars I would. She made my fur baby feel like he was at home. She communicated with me his entire stay she even sent videos. I definitely will be using Lia again and I recommend anyone with fur babies to book with her as well”
“Shruti was super patient with Flora, and provided plenty of updates and photos without me having to ask. I will definitely be asking her to keep Flora again!”
“Daniel took fantastic care of our pup! Sent lots of photos and was super communicative, we will definitely be using Daniel again next time we’re out of town and would highly recommend him!”
“We loved having Gina watch our dog, Camden. She sent lots of pictures and videos which made us feel so comfortable. He’s been sleeping ever since we picked him up so I know he had a great time! Would definitely rebook with her and highly recommend.”
“Our dog Casey and my sister’s dog Mia had a nice time staying with Theresa. She is calm and loves dogs. Mia is shy and takes time to adapt but having Casey there really helped her build trust. We’ve never left our dogs either anyone other than family and it was comforting to know they both were in good care. Thank you!”

“This is the second time we have booked with Jun and we will continue to book with him for as long as he is pet sitting. Our shy, people-adverse kitty warmed up to him immediately and he treats her like she is his own pet. We can’t recommend Jun enough!!”
“Arianna was incredible and I will 100% use her as a cat sitter going forward! She was so kind to my cat and very communicative with me about how she was doing while I was gone. I could not be happier with the care my kitty received. Thank you Arianna!”
“Kal was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our cat during drop-in visits and kept us updated. What stood out was how thoughtful and attentive she was when there was an unexpected power outage and fire alarm in the building. She noticed the alert in the neighborhood, went out of her way to drive back and checked on our cat to send us an update and photos to reassure us that she was ok. It gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was out of the city. Kal was incredibly reliable, communicative and genuinely caring. We would absolutely book with Kal again and highly recommend her!”
“Nancy did an amazing job taking such good care of our cat while we were away. Our cat is very shy around new people, however she warmed up to Nancy right away and got plenty of pets, love, affection, and treats. Nancy is very professional, dependable, and quickly responsive. Would recommend to any cat owner and we plan to reach out to her again in the future!”
“Anastasia took great care of our two kitties while we were away! She made sure to do a meet and greet before which was very helpful. She was communicative, professional and kind and took great care of the cats.”
“Kimberly took such wonderful care of our 2 cats while we were away for a week. She communicated with us frequently and quickly, kept our home tidy and brought in our mail without us asking, and just overall seemed to truly care about our cats, taking the time to do the little things that we’d do for them. She earned their trust throughout the week and invested time to play with them and just give them company. Would absolutely trust her to care for them again! Thank you so much!!”
“Henry and Sadie love Olivia so much! We are so sad this is the last time they will get to have their own ‘vacation’ with her as we are moving soon. Henry and Sadie are always in excellent hands with Olivia, and their care is seamless. She was exceptional this stay as there was an uncommon and severe weather event in the area. She made sure she was with them until things had cleared up, and reassured us with updates until everything had passed! We appreciate her so much 💕💕💕”
“We are so lucky to have found Paula, she's an absolute blessing! She is competent, reliable, responsive, and just overall a kind and lovely human! It was such a relief to know our furballs were in good hands while we were away. I cannot recommend Paula more highly, and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Nina is an incredible sitter- we loved reading the detailed reports of her visits with our cat and the pictures showed a very content kitty. 10/10 would book again!”
“Christopher was amazing! His communication and professionalism was top notch. He kept us updated with notes and pictures while we were gone so I knew my babies were in good hands. He kept their water and litter clean and played with them until they were worn out. I would hire him again in a heartbeat!”
“Andrew took such good care of our cat while we were away for the holiday weekend. I highly recommend Andrew for taking care of both cats and dogs. He’s very reliable and loves animals.”
“Chris was amazing with my cat while I was away and was very flexible when my schedule kept changing. She left very detailed messages and sent lots of pictures. I would definitely recommend!”

However, please contact me if you are open to working something out beyond those hours (crate-ing, early morning drop-offs, etc.)! Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet sitter with a 5-star rating on Rover. I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog like family, and that’s exactly how I approach every visit.

Whether it’s overnight boarding, drop-in visits, or walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and personalized care while you’re away.

As a teacher, my schedule reflects my summer availability. I plan to be available all throughout the summer but if anything changes my schedule will be updated promptly! My apartment is extremely dog-friendly and I am fortunate enough to have a decent sized patio for late night/early morning potty breaks or just basking in the sun. I am also a short distance to Patterson Park, perfect for long walks. I have fostered dogs from BARCS in the past as well as watched my friends dogs and I cannot help but treat them like the babies they are. I have no shame in showering every dog with all the compliments. I am diligent in how I let dogs interact while making sure everyone is happy and comfortable. I also have experience with administering medication orally as well as ear drops.

“Sausage had another wonderful time with Veronica, Caleb and their fur family. I recently found out that Harper, the matriarch of Veronica’s pick of Westies, has taken a special interest in Sausage and is very protective of him. Makes me feel so reassured to know that I’m addition to Veronica and Caleb’s watchful eyes, Sausage has Harper looking after him too. 4 paws way up!!!”
“I couldn’t be happier with our dog sitter! He’s incredibly prompt and always available—even on short notice, which has been a lifesaver more than once. It’s clear he genuinely loves my dog, and that kind of care and attention means a lot to me. He also has his own dog, so mine gets a built-in playmate and comes home happy and well-exercised every time. It’s such a relief knowing my dog is not just being watched, but truly cared for and enjoying the experience. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve helped care for pets for years by providing walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable working with energetic puppies, helping reinforce routines and basic commands, as well as senior pets who need a slower pace, medication support, and extra comfort. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive, making sure every pet feels safe and happy in my care. I’m available Thursday through Saturday, both day and night so you can have fun in the weekend. I’m able to provide walks, drop-ins, overnight care, and extended attention during these days, including weekends. This allows me to be fully present, flexible, and attentive to each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in my home, I always follow the pet’s normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they’re fed on time, have fresh water, get regular walks, I also live next to a park or playtime, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I’m attentive to instructions such as medication schedules, training routines, and any special needs. I also keep the space clean and secure, provide updates to owners, and treat every home and pet with respect—just as I would my own.
About: This young adult is filled with energy, patience and love! I have owned a dog since I was a child and tried to open a mini petting rescue zoo in my moms barn . It worked until I had to actually adult and pay my own bills . I love giving one in one attention and healthy treats . My availability is flexible due to working around my human patients . I value bedside mannerisms and do believe they don’t just apply to two legged friends. I have been known for my cautious and preventative decision making skills ! My temperament is easy going but firm because if not, all paws will break loose! Seriously , I would have 100 dogs at home if possible. I am currently working part time and from home . I have plenty of time to give your fur baby the attention and love deserving ! I have a mini fenced in area in my back yard that my own pup adores. It is just enough space to get the job done and provide leg room. I live in walking distance to three huge parks, and on leash we will have a wonderful time.
“Kristen was super friendly, responsive and flexible, asked lots of questions about Finn, and clearly loves animals! Finn can be a bit anxious when with a new sitter, and he didn’t hesitate to run right up to her and make himself at home. She sent pictures throughout the day and kept me updated. I felt incredibly comfortable leaving Finn with Kristen and was confident through his stay that he was being not just well taken care of but also getting lots of love and attention. I’d highly recommend Kristen!”
“Elizabeth and her pup have been amazing with Oliver! He clearly loves getting to have playtime during daycare with her, it’s exactly the socialization and fun that we want for him!”
“Sonoma had a GREAT first day at Peter’s. He sent pictures throughout the day. And flight cancellations meant we picked her up hours later than expected, but Peter was super flexible.”
About: I adopted my first dog when I was 12, and the rest, as they say, is history! I have experience pet sitting for neighbors and friends, from puppies to senior dogs, including animals with medication needs. When I haven't had dogs of my own, I've been involved with fostering to get both cats and dogs ready for their forever home. I'm a hybrid worker with a flexible work schedule, so I'm available throughout the day, for whatever your pet(s) need, whether that's a midmorning walk, an afternoon play session, or meals at specific times of the day! I have a small fenced in patio, and I'm open to working with you to make sure your pet is happy, healthy, and safe. I have experience with obedience training, crate training, and animals with special requirements, and I will do whatever is necessary to meet your pet's individual needs.
“Very patient Sitter. My dog is still a puppy and can be quite mischievous. Esterline was patient, kind and very understanding. I especially liked the environment that my dog was in. Her house was very clean and aesthetically pleasing. She even had another puppy for my dog to play with! When my dog came back home he was so tired he went straight to sleep and slept through the night! AMAZING!! Highly recommend.”
“Dorcas responded very quickly to my ad to watch my little boy spot. She even drove to my work to pick him up for me. She immediatly sent me pics & was very easy to communicate about his needs. I know spot loves her already & we are so happy we found such a kind, loving and compassionate sitter. Thank you so much.”
“Rey was AMAZING. He met with me and my pup so that I could see the location and get a chance to meet him. I really appreciated that and my pup took to him right away. He was really accommodating of my schedule with a long work day and he was very communicative. I loved getting pics of her and the other pups throughout the day. This was her first week and we will definitely be back.”
About: I’ve always been a lover of animals of any kind. I’ve been the family pet sitter for years and Never was paid for it because I just was doing it for fun. Pet care seamlessly fits into my weekly routine, as I'm able to dedicate flexible hours to ensure your pet's needs are met. I can provide regular walks, playtime, and cuddles, while also accommodating medication schedules and special dietary needs. My schedule allows for regular check-ins and updates, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I provide personalized care for pets in both my home and clients' homes, tailoring my services to meet each pet's unique needs. In my home, pets enjoy the space and environment with comfortable spaces for rest and play. In clients' homes, I respect their space and routines, administering medication, feeding, and providing exercise and playtime as needed. I also keep owners informed with regular updates and photos, ensuring their pet's comfort and happiness.
“Shanikki was very flexible with my last minute booking and my dog enjoyed her time! She was very responsive and sent pictures and was great with my nervous dog.”
“Emily was amazing! We did a meet and greet a few days before hand and then on the actual day, my dog remembered her and was so excited to be back. I was worried because he’s a bit of a Velcro dog but Emily said he slept behind her while she worked and spent some time outside with her dog as well playing. 10/10, I will book Emily and Patrick next time I need a sitter.”
“Lexi-Saige took to Jessica immediately. She slept with her and hung-out by her side all day. I'm glad my precious girl felt comfortable and enjoyed her day while I was out of town. Thanks Jessica!”
“It was so wonderful to know Mateo was in great hands! We will definitely be keeping April in mind in the future. He came home happy and tired every day that he spent with her and her pup!”
“Michelle has been so great with my sweet Paris that even though we don’t need her services often, Paris gets excited the moment we pull up (knowing exactly where we are) and is never sad to see me leave, lol! She’s happy when I pick her up but has clearly had a great time with Michelle and any other pups around. Michelle has simply been amazing to work with as she’s navigated some of my own challenging schedule issues with grace during an already difficult time. I am so grateful.”
“It was an interesting day in Cleveland. They were so sweet to roll with the changes for me from the change of times on the baseball game due to rain. Lexi had a wonderful peaceful time. She enjoyed their company and was a really good girl because she really felt loved. I highly recommend them.”

About: Ive loved with a dog since high-school and have had cats on and off for years. I currently have a dog and pet sit dogs ( and cats) for fun. My own dog is well trained and very kind so you don't need to worry about your pet. I work full time but I have a very flexible schedule and I'm home during the weekends. Especially since I have a dog of my own. I have a friendly dog whose very playful and a lot of space in the house for animals to play. I already have dog toys and treats
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and am currently a pup mom of a five year old GSD mix. I love walking and enjoy it more when I can bring a furry friend along with me. Outside of having my own pup, I have over 5 years of experience with dog and house sitting on platforms such has TrustedHousesitters and Wag!. I’m happy to share my profiles with my reviews 😇. As a sitter, I promise to treat your home with the respect it deserves and give your pup the same love that I give my own :). I can provide any pup assistance whether it's sitting, boarding, or taking your loved one out to stretch their paws :). I'm currently working from home so my schedule is really flexible. If a last minute walk or sitting is needed, I can most likely accommodate unless I'm already booked :). As a dog owner myself, I’ll know how to keep your pup happy and your mind at ease with updates and communication, unless told otherwise.
About: Friends and family know I will always jump at an opportunity to help out and spend time with a pet, and I've spent a lot of time taking care of both my own and other's dogs and cats. I grew up training and running with my family dog, and now I have my own little kitten who is my best friend! I am a master's student at Johns Hopkins with a pretty flexible schedule. My classes are primarily mid-day T-F, and I am available most other times for walks, feeding, or just a check in! Your pet your rules - I always like to make sure their environment is safe and free of hazards and accident prone things, but any additional things you might need I am happy to accommodate. I will always double check that their space is safe when I leave your home!
“Sun has been great to work with, and I hope to continue to work with them this year. Fitz responds really well to them, and I can tell they care about taking care of my dog. Thank you so much for all that you do!”
“Lady remains the constant star! She provided awesome updates while taking care of my puppy son! Will continue to use her services for as long as she’ll let me. 😂”
“Kal was great! She came and got the dogs from our hotel which was a huge help. She did a good job walking them and feeding them for us. She worked with our schedule to meet up prior to her coming to take them out. I highly recommend Kal!”
About: New to Rover, but Full of Love & Dedication! Though I'm just starting my journey on Rover, I bring a genuine love for animals and a commitment to their well-being. I may not have years of experience, but I make up for it with enthusiasm, patience, and a strong desire to learn. I'm dedicated to providing your pets with the care and attention they deserve, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Your trust means everything to me, and I'm excited to build lasting relationships with you and your furry (or not, much love for them as well) family members! I currently work full time but only 3 days out of the week so I'll have plenty of time to drop by and shower your babies with all of the love in the world and then some more on top of that! There's always time to get a tail wagging! I would greatly prefer caring for pets in their own home, but if necessary I do have a mid-sized fenced yard, space for roaming inside, I live less than 10-minutes away from a large park/dog park, and can crate if necessary. I live a pretty active lifestyle, I enjoy the sun so if your pet likes to run I'm on its tail, and if not, I'll lounge right beside 'em with snacks in hand!
“I really appreciate Andrew be willing to accept this walk despite the booking being so last minute. He was communicative, caring and seemed to be very in tune with my at times anxious pup. I would happily book Andrew for a future walk. Thank you!”
About: Hi! I offer dependable dog walks and drop-in visits with a focus on consistency, safety, and genuine care. I love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I grew up with dogs and have cared for a variety of animals over the years, including cats, birds, and other small pets. Being around animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I’m comfortable adapting to different needs and temperaments. I also have my own dog, which has reinforced how important patience, structure, and understanding behavior can be. I take a calm, thoughtful approach and always aim to make pets feel comfortable and cared for during each visit. With my background in healthcare, I’m very detail-oriented, reliable, and respectful of routines. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific instructions, I make sure everything is followed closely. Pet care fits into my routine in a consistent, structured way. I offer early mornings, limited midday visits (based on proximity), and evenings, and I keep my schedule intentionally manageable so I can be on time and fully present for each pet. This works well for clients who need reliable, ongoing weekday support. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine and following all care instructions carefully. Safety is a priority—I use secure leashing and entry practices, pay attention to each pet’s behavior, and adjust as needed to keep them safe and calm. I’m respectful of your home and provide clear updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
“SJ is wonderful to work with. The notes they provided after the daily walks meant so much to me while I was away from my fur-baby. Highly, highly recommend.”
“We would highly recommend Emily! She was responsive, responsible, reliable, and prompt. She clearly took great care of our sweet boy and showed him lots of love and attention during their walk together. Thank you, Emily!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for week long, long weekend, and day house sits. Love getting to know the different personalities of people's pets and I like getting my steps in during walks! I'm currently working on building up my own business so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I like to workout, but I can fit pet sitting around my gym schedule. I ask ton of questions about their pet's preferences and habits. My top priorities are making sure both the owner and the pets are comfortable and that trust is established.
About: Hi! I’m Molly, a recent college graduate preparing for law school and a lifelong dog lover. I’ve had dogs since I was sixteen and raised and trained my own goldendoodle, who now lives with my parents in Pennsylvania. I’ve also cared for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities, including puppies. I love having a dog around my apartment—the companionship and company are honestly one of my favorite parts of pet sitting. I live in my own studio with a private back patio, and dogs are welcome on the furniture and in my bed. I offer boarding, house sitting, daycare, walks, and drop-in visits. I do work part-time during the day, but I have a flexible schedule and make sure every dog in my care gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Outside of work, I’m flexible with how we spend our time. I live right outside Patterson Park, so I’m happy to take your dog for a long walk or to the dog park, or we can relax at home together while I study. Most importantly, I’ll work around what works best for your dog. Every dog has different needs, routines, and personalities, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely. I’m also very communicative and will send plenty of pictures and updates if you’d like them—or keep things more relaxed if that’s your preference. I’d love to meet you and your dog! I live alone and work a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for furry friends! I am an early riser and am happy to start the day with a walk or some play, as well as some quality time to unwind in the evenings. I have my own studio apartment within a townhouse in a great neighborhood, perfect for walks. I also have a fenced in back patio! If caring in your space, your rules and boundaries are my guide!
About: I truly believe pets are part of the family—and when they’re in my care, that’s exactly how I treat them. ❤️ I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including walking, drop-in visits, and caring for them in both my home and their own homes. I love getting to know each dog and figuring out what makes them happy. Whether they want to play, go for a good walk, get lots of attention, or simply curl up beside me, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’m an active, engaged pet sitter and love playing, talking to, and spending time with my furry friends. Once they’re in my care, they become part of my family. I enjoy playing with cats too, and giving them attention, but I also understand that many cats are happiest doing their own thing. I’m perfectly comfortable letting a cat have their space while keeping a watchful eye and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, fed, and cared for. My home is smoke-free, clean, calm, and pet-friendly. I keep food safely stored in cupboards and maintain a clean and sanitized environment. I’m mindful about keeping floors and common areas clean and making sure pets have a safe, comfortable place to relax. I have lengthy experience with large aquarium set ups with fish, turtles, geckos and lizards. Most importantly, I’m dependable, attentive, and respectful of your pet’s individual routine and personality. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated while you’re away, and treat your home and belongings with the same care I would want someone to give mine. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a playmate, a quiet companion, medication reminders, a cozy place to stay, or simply someone to keep them company—I’m happy to help. Your pets aren’t just pets to me. They’re little members of the family, and they deserve to be treated that way. 🐾 P.S. Rover is my first experience charging for pet care and that’s why I don’t have many jobs posted or reviews. Previously I traded services or offered free. I have been a Trusted Housesitters member for over 6 years. Right now, I’m working during the day, so my availability is primarily evenings, weekends, and holidays. Monday–Friday: Available after 6:00 PM for evening walks, drop-in visits, and pet care. Weekends: Flexible availability for walks, drop-ins, pet sitting, and boarding in my home. Holidays: Available for pet care, flexible. I’m also happy to care for pets in my home M-F when the timing is a good fit. I know pets do best with consistency, so I’ll work with you to understand their normal routine and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. As my schedule changes, I expect to have more daytime availability in the future! When you leave your pet in someone else’s care, trust matters. I take that responsibility seriously. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always come first. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, stick to their normal routines as much as possible, and pay attention to the little things that help them feel comfortable and secure. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well while you’re away. I treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I’ll keep things clean and secure, make sure doors and gates are properly closed, and never take shortcuts when it comes to your pet’s safety. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to doing what I say I’ll do. If something unexpected comes up, I’ll communicate with you rather than making assumptions. Most importantly, I understand that your pet isn’t “just a pet.” They’re family. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, comfortable pet—and to feel confident that they were cared for with kindness, patience, and genuine attention while you were gone. 🐾

My schedule is hybrid and I am flexible so I’m happy to discuss and work with you! I like to be with the dogs and cats as much as I can, but have the opportunity to occasionally go back to my own house to take a shower and grab some food.
“Christopher is the best! He is always quick to respond and incredibly flexible and accommodating. He is great with our dog who always looks forward to his visits.”
“Thanks to Imauri’s flexible schedule, she was able to accommodate our beagle who is just shy of four months and needed to be taken out for walks. Very professional, even checked up on my puppy when I was a little late getting back home just to make sure he was OK. She even tidied up after he came in from his walk which was extremely helpful. My baby loves her and is comfortable with her and that speaks volumes for my shy beagle.”
About: I’ve always been a lover of animals of any kind. I’ve been the family pet sitter for years and Never was paid for it because I just was doing it for fun. Pet care seamlessly fits into my weekly routine, as I'm able to dedicate flexible hours to ensure your pet's needs are met. I can provide regular walks, playtime, and cuddles, while also accommodating medication schedules and special dietary needs. My schedule allows for regular check-ins and updates, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I provide personalized care for pets in both my home and clients' homes, tailoring my services to meet each pet's unique needs. In my home, pets enjoy the space and environment with comfortable spaces for rest and play. In clients' homes, I respect their space and routines, administering medication, feeding, and providing exercise and playtime as needed. I also keep owners informed with regular updates and photos, ensuring their pet's comfort and happiness.
About: Have taken care of various breeds, both big and small, as well as high energy working dogs, for family and friends over the years. This includes both walks and full dog-sitting for up to two weeks at a time. Currently work remote and can provide lots of care for dogs who need it! I am usually an early riser and prefer to get outside in the mornings, but can also offer midday and night walks given my flexible work schedule. Willing to go on runs for dogs who have lots of energy to get out! I am primarily open to caring for pets in clients homes because I currently have roommates. I keep spaces clean and organized and will provide plenty of ear and belly runs for your pet.

“Mocha has found her home away from home! We are so pleased with the care our girl Mocha received with Nicole and her family. After seeing the pics and updates, my son was afraid Mocha would not want to come home with us! She was loved and treated as a part of their family. I have already asked if it would be ok to become a repeat client. Best choice ever!!!!”
“Demetrius watched our dog Taz and quickly became one of his favorite people!!! We got updates throughout the day about how well they were doing together. It usually takes Taz a long time to warm up to people, leading us to consider Demetrius a dog whisperer!!! We are so grateful for him and look forward to bringing Taz back to stay with him and Sebastian again in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Shanikki was great! Watched Coal over the weekend, and I could tell from the start he'd have a good time and be safe under her care. Space was more than accommodating for my dog, and she showed him a lot of love and attention to help manage his separation anxiety. Also had great communication and updates on him with very prompt responses. Will definitely book again. ✨️”
“Fatty had the absolute best time staying with her family. He was showered with affection, got tons of cuddles, and even got treated to pup cups. He loved them so much and we are so happy he has an open invitation to return anytime. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will love their dog like family!”
“My dog and I love Kyra! She was responsive, kind and eager to meet all of my dog’s needs! He came home tired and happier than ever! Can’t wait to book her again!”

“Shruti was super patient with Flora, and provided plenty of updates and photos without me having to ask. I will definitely be asking her to keep Flora again!”
“Daniel took fantastic care of our pup! Sent lots of photos and was super communicative, we will definitely be using Daniel again next time we’re out of town and would highly recommend him!”
“We loved having Gina watch our dog, Camden. She sent lots of pictures and videos which made us feel so comfortable. He’s been sleeping ever since we picked him up so I know he had a great time! Would definitely rebook with her and highly recommend.”
“Rey took such great care of my pups for a 1 week work trip. He even gave me some tips on how he gets one of my dogs to let him trim their nails. He gives great updates and they came home happy and healthy. Thanks Rey!”
About: I know how special our pets are in our lives. I will bring the same care, love and affection I have provided for my own fur babies to yours. Pet care fits into my schedule during the morning and afternoon hours around 4 pm. I am pretty flexible with my schedule so can adjust when needed. Much like children I have babysat in the past - keeping a safe environment is vital to everyone’s safety. With pets this is the same principle. Making sure everyone is safe and happy is my top priority.
“Karla is super responsive and took the best care of our dog, Ruthie. Ruthie can be pretty particular in her older age, and she was so comfortable with Karla. Loved the detailed updates and many photos! Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone.”
“Crissy is an amazing help. She took great care of our dog and gave timely updates. Truly a pleasure to be able to use her services. I have no reservations about using her again in the future.”
“Junie comes back happy and healthy! We received lots of great pictures of her walks and hangout time with dog friends. Julia is quick to respond to messages and knows a lot about dog behavior.”

“Ashley was a great sitter! Took very good care of my dog and sent plenty of pictures. She was also very flexible when I had some last minute travel changes. Would definitely recommend!”
