“Whitley is the absolute best! Gave our dog so much love, movement, and fun! Marshall loved playing with her dog too. She was super accommodating when our flight was delayed too.”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“Queeny took excellent care of our pup! She shared pictures and videos every day to keep us updated how he was doing. Her communication was excellent, very responsive, and she was flexible when we encountered a delay in our travel plans that impacted our scheduled pick-up time. We will definitely have Queeny watch our pup again the next time we take a vacation!”
“Steven has cared for my dog twice now and my dog has come back home well cared for and happy. Steven is accommodating and communicates well. Due to delays in our trip he kept our dog for longer and helped us. Thanks”
“Beverly is wonderful. My return flight was cancelled so I was stuck in Los Angeles and couldn’t pick up my dog as scheduled. I messaged Beverly and she contacted Rover to modify the booking. She was able to keep my dog until I was back home. Thanks again Beverly.”
About: Hello! My pet experience consists of having my own doggy for the past 20 years. I rescued my older dog and then got a new puppy. My old Rose passed away but I had to give her eye medication and oral medication everyday so I am comfortable with that. I also grew up with family dogs and cared for those dogs. My availability to watch your dog is very flexible. I work from home a most days a week so it is a high chance that I could work from home while caring for your pup. I am a very caring person. I have a PhD in human development and family science and work in the social work field. I have a giant heart and would love to care for your doggie! As a stay-at-home worker, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent attention, timely feedings, regular potty breaks, and plenty of play and cuddle time. My flexible schedule means I can easily accommodate pets’ needs, whether that’s sticking to a specific routine or being available for spontaneous walks and care. Being home also helps me monitor behavior closely and respond quickly to any changes, making pets feel secure, loved, and well looked after. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment tailored to each animal’s needs. In my home, pets have access to cozy rest areas, regular outdoor time, and plenty of affection and play throughout the day. I maintain a calm, clean space and follow any routines or special instructions provided. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick closely to the pet’s established schedule to minimize stress. I provide regular updates, ensure fresh food and water, maintain cleanliness, and give each pet the love and attention they’re used to.
“This would be like our 3rd time using Rahied! He was absolutely great as usual! He went above and beyond for Cobra! I think Cobra misses him and especially his son already! 😆😁”
“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”
“Cody was so great with our golden retriever, Snoop! His dog seemed to get along well with Snoop and it was great to know he was in a good environment being well taken care of!”
“Jess is wonderful. I have engaged her twice to board my American Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Both times issues arose, one was a health issue and another where my flight was cancelled and I needed extra days of care. She cheerfully accommodated the situation and put my mind at ease during a stressful time. She takes great care of Halle, who is a rescue and can be reactive towards other dogs. I usually have to give a lot of instructions for sitters, but not so much with Jess, she just knows what to do. I especially noticed that Halle was more relaxed after staying with Jess. Now that she is used to her, I feel really comfortable leaving Halle with Jess.”
“Meredith was super kind, lovely and made my little Bichon Frisé felt totally at home. She updated me with videos and pictures constantly even describing how my little one was feeling each day. Definitely I’ll book Meredith again, she is the best!”
“Enaes did a fantastic job handling my very nervous pooch and was very flexible when I was stuck out of town due to the weather. She provided updates and I felt comfortable having Pheo in her care.”
“Anna did a great job was little Maizie, she is only 7lbs, but Anna’s Ruby was so sweet to her 🥰 Anna was really attentive to Maizie’s eating habits - she is a picky eater and was able to eat her full meal by day two, would love to rebook with Anna again.”
“Theresa and Adrian took great care of our dog while we were away for 5 days! They communicate thoroughly and share updates daily. They even went above and beyond by sleeping on the couch with our dog on his first night when he was showing signs of anxiety. Highly recommend their services!”
“My girls returned for another stay with LaTash. Once again, they had the best time and were well taken care of. I am so blessed to have found a pet sitter like LaTash. I am extremely comfortable with her taking care of my babies!!!”
“Sogol was wonderful and attentive to my dog Chance. I appreciated the frequent updates that she provided. I could tell that Chance was well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely be booking with Sogol again and I would highly recommend her! 😊”
“We had an amazing experience with Sofia. She was incredible with our puppy and kind and flexible with us. A joy to work with, extremely professional, and full of love for our dog! Thank you SO much Sofia! Would 100% ask her to watch Dove again.”

“Shannon is an ANGEL. She went above and beyond for our kitties and even brought in a package and our trash cans that we forgot about! I felt a lot better being away from home knowing my kitties were in good hands. ALSO my shy kitty who doesn't come out for ANYONE came out for Shannon and even let Shannon pet her!! I would absolutely recommend Shannon to anyone who needs pet care! We were so lucky to have her!”
“Mary Kay was great! My cat doesn’t warm up easily and she was able to make her feel comfortable enough to eat treats out of her hand and sent tons of great photos over the weekend, greatly appreciated knowing my cat was happy.”
About: I have been caring for both cats and dogs my entire life, personally and professionally. This includes disabled + senior care! I do my best to match the energy & demeanor of each animal; if they are extra active & playful, I’m prepared to keep up! If they are more timid & anxious, I’m very gentle, patient, & soft spoken. I love animals a lot & I’m a natural when it comes to meeting their needs. I have an office job 3 days a week as well as a 4-year old but my time is shared and very flexible. I’m free by 4pm every single day and weekends are open. I have a 4 bedroom house with 2 cats & some gates so I generally keep them separated. My backyard is fenced in as well
“Rhea did a great job with Spock! She sent cute pictures of his outside time and him getting a treat, and she put a bowl of water down when his fountain stopped working 10 out of 10 stars!!”
“Genelle was kind and timely and updated me every drop in with pictures and comments on my cats. Super easy to talk to and flexible to plan with. Highly recommend booking her.”
“Amanda was great! She sent lots of pictures and made sure my two cats (including a very anxious one) were well taken care of while I was out of town for work! She also left my apartment super clean which was so nice to come back to!”
“Sam Q was great. She understood complicated directions and fed, watered, and medicated my elderly kitty. Would definitely recommend, and will book again myself with, Sam Q.”
About: I have been pet-sitting since I was a little kid, and grew up with a mom as a vet, so a love of animals and concern for their well-being is deep in my bones. I was a volunteer at an animal shelter for three years, fostered cats and dogs for four years, and currently have two cats of my own. I love caring for cats, dogs, rodents, fish, and exotics of all ages. :) I work full time, so I can drop in early in the morning or evenings. Weekends are typically open and more flexible. I have a car and can come to you. I am happy to care for your fur friend in your home. I like to meet them ahead to build trust and will go all-in on playtime. Let m know if you need plants watered too!
“Dalonna is stellar! She was very enthusiastic for the challenge that we had for her. Good communication, good with new care tasks, etc. Great experience for us while on our vacation.”
“Audrey was responsible, communicative, and always sent a note with photos of all the cats when she visited. She also played with the more active ones. Thanks! I will be using her services again in the future.”
“Carli definitely went above and beyond! Carli spent time getting our cat Lola adjusted to having a new person in the house and by the end she was super comfortable and cuddly. Carli also brought in our mail and organized it without being asked! We really appreciated all the care and help.”
About: I grew up in a household of all kinds of pets! I've taken care of our fur babies as well as those of relatives since I was about 12. I'm also very experienced with handling different temperaments of cats from the playful to the grumpy! I have two cats myself and one is 5 years old and the other is 2 so I'm used to entertaining less active cats to get them active as well as playing with little balls of energy to burn some of it! From cleaning to walking to feeding I have experience in several different aspects of pet care.
About: In a fast paced environment it is easy to overlook our place in the world as animals. Being in close contact with other beings can create connectedness and a sense of place in nature. Simple tasks like dog walking may seem beneath most people, but I see it as an act graciousness and a chance to connect to other beings. As a walker or sitter my goal is to consciously occupy space with your pet. This, for me, means accommodating and changing as situations seem fit. I would also like to stay conscious of any owners wishes and feelings regarding the service I may provide and remember that it is only a service if it works to make their and their pets experience more comfortable.
“Rachel is absolutely the best dog sitter we've ever worked with. Her timing was prompt, her communication was fantastic, and she went over and above on multiple occasions, including gracefully working with our oldest dog who had been scared by fireworks, making sure all of our pups' needs were met. We can't thank her enough!”
About: Growing up, I have cared for two cats for a few years. I adopted my own cat, Cleo, when she was 3 months old. You can also find me caring for all the neighborhood cats!
“My cat Pinto warmed up to Kayla immediately! She was so sweet, thoughtful and flexible when my plans changed last minute. Great communication and updates, impeccable care. I could tell Pinto was not just looked after but loved. Would definitely book Kayla again. Thank you so much!”
About: I have grown up loving and caring for dogs of my own as well as others. I have always been the person people always call when they have some kind of animal emergency. I absolutely love animals and know a lot about taking care of them and many different types. They will get lots of attention and quality care for me. I will spoil your baby as much as you will let me! I can work on training and other fun activities to keep your dog’s mind distracted. I love cats as well and have lots of experience with them. I have lots of experience with special needs and elderly pets. I can administer any medication necessary. Thank you and have a good day! ? I have a flexible schedule so I can meet most needs. I keep in contact with you asap if there are any changes that are needed I live in a charming small house in the corner of Ferndale and a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. I have a fully fenced in backyard that is about 97% privacy fence. There’s one little corner where my dog can talk to the dog in back through a chain-link fence.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 12 years old. My family has had cats and dogs my whole life. I adore all animals and treat them with the most love and care. I myself I have two cats who are 6 and 5 years old who now stay at my parents house (they love all the room there). They rely on me for their litter changes, feeding and cuddles. I’m a self certified cat lady. They are the world to me and I treat them as family. My sisters both have dogs and I treat them as family as well. I love to take them on walks, play with them, and take care of their every need. I’m currently focusing on my art full time. Im a multidisciplinary artist. My schedule is very open and I have completely open availability through the week and weekend. I will care for your home and for your pet as if they were my own.

“My dog loved his visit and Rachel loved him too! He was there for a dog birthday party and was sent home with a new tie and cupcake, it was very cute. She sent videos and pictures. We did a doggy daycare experience when we needed somewhere for our dog until we could check into our Airbnb.”

“Amazing Care for My Fur Baby! I cannot recommend Dalonna enough! She went above and beyond in taking care of my 3-month-old Morkie making sure all of my pup’s needs were met, I felt completely at ease knowing my baby was in such loving hands. Dalonna was professional, communicative, and treated my Morkie like one of her own. I came home to a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for dog. If you're looking for someone reliable and compassionate, Dalonna is the one!”
“Greatly appreciated Kristen's 1) willingness to accommodate us when we needed daycare at the last minute, 2) her patience with and fondness for our super energetic 4-month old puppy, and 3) the pictures that gave us a glimpse of our boy's first time with the other dogs at her home. Each of these things made us feel more at ease. We will definitely request Kristen G. again.”
“Bentley had a great time hanging out with Murphy and Meredith. We've just moved to the Ferndale area, and he misses his old neighbor friends. Happy he's made a friend with Murphy:)”
About: I would love to take care of your furbaby! I have several years of past experience working at animal hospitals and a year of volunteer experience at the ASPCA animal shelter. I offer boarding with only one pet family booked at a time. I also offer house-sitting and love how it is a great option for some pets who feel most comfortable in their own home. I also make sure to keep your home at least as clean and tidy as I found it. I usually stay overnight for the pet's care needs, but if you are looking for just morning to evening or partial day house-sitting, message me for a custom rate. Whether boarding or house-sitting, I will do my best to adhere to your furbaby's normal routine. I have a knack for relaxing anxious/shy/reactive pets and have quite a lot of experience winning them over. I would be happy to do a meet-n-greet in a large outdoor space for your pup to warm up to me on neutral ground. I've cared for the full spectrum of dog sizes and ages. With older pets, I go slowly and make sure not to startle them if they're sleeping, as they may not see or hear me come in. I like to discuss how I can accommodate any special needs your pet may have. Extra plus if your pet is a cuddler! I look forward to getting to know all of your pets' personality traits and quirks! I LOVE hearing stories about the weird things your pets do that make them unique! :D I work from home and can often accommodate same day requests for walks, drop-ins, and house-sitting. I do my best to follow your pet's normal routine. I like to go slow when meeting new furbabies, especially if you tell me they are shy or anxious. I use a few calming techniques that have shown to be effective. I like a challenge! It's so rewarding watching the transformation of a cat/dog go from showing defensive/protective behavior to them rubbing up on me or giving me kisses. Earning their trust is the best!
About: My husband and I work from home and have very flexible schedules that allow us to be present with our pets during the day. There are no kids in the home during the day during the week. Typical day include walks around the neighborhood or nearby park, lounging or playing in the backyard or the dog park. Plenty of toys for chewers and plenty of space in our fenced yard to roam and play. I currently work from home as a technology sales rep. When I am not working, I’m entertaining both my toddler and pets. I often have a decent amount of free time and dog sitting has been a great outlet for my dog to socialize and get some fun in! For repeat pets, I have noticed a big difference after a few days of adjusting. Its important for pets to feel safe in whatever space they are in.
“Mariana and her husband have hosted our dog Shama multiple times now and they are always our first choice because we know Shama is always happy to see them and stay with them. Very flexible and communicate very nicely with us. We highly recommend them.”
“Cody has a way with dogs, and it’s clear ours enjoyed being with him and was well cared for while there. We booked a few days before the stay and he was extremely accommodating! We will use him again!”
“Tia was my first dog sitter on Rover and I couldn't have asked for a better person to watch over my dog! She took great care of my baby. She was so kind and welcoming towards Olive, even at times when she can be a bit hyper. She sent me updates during the day as well as pictures. I would highly recommend her!”
About: Your home is my base. Professional housesitter, LGBT+ND Friendly. My homebody routine (WFH yogi) mean tons of time with your pet. I'm very tidy, and a good fit for clean nonsmoking homes. Over 200+ nights per year petsitting! Your place is my home, not just short visits. I also enjoy multiple pet households of 2, 3, 4 or more! I am patient with anxiety, special needs, medication, and puppies. I love written instructions, and take medication seriously. My day is typically yoga, meditation, movie nights with your pets, two hours WFH, and walks or yard time. I also offer daytime care in your home via the Housesitting tab (3 hours to 10 hours+) even if you don't need overnight. You can also book Drop Ins of 30 mins to an hour, or multiple hours. I usually send 2ish updates with photos per day, but if you'd like more or less, let me know. I'm mature, sober, nonsmoking; I don't vape or use drugs, not even caffeine. I have decades of experience caring for houses and pets. I WFH a few hours a week as a property manager, so I'm very available for pets who need more attention. Feel free to send a request even if Rover suggests I may be booked, because sometimes it's just for a doggie walk. Note: All of December will be at Rover Holiday rates. After our initial meet and greet, it is standard to do cold swaps vs hot swaps, for your out of town trip. I arrive after you leave, and depart before you return. This usually means smoother transitions for pets and humans. If you need a sit start time before 8am, or end time after 8pm, or drives over 20 minutes, there is an additional charge of $30 each, not included in your estimate. You are very welcome to book additional drop ins or walks before your sit so we can all get to know each other! Your home is my home base, I bring my groceries/book/yoga mat. Playtime, downtime, and sleepytime are spent with your pet. I WFH and love reading, cooking, meditation, movies. My commitments are important to me, and I care about your pets. I am responsible, a great communicator, and will always respond to your messages.
About: I’ve been a pet owner for over 20 years, ranging from the typical fish, cat, and beloved Murphy, to include even a pet iguana (or two). 🥰 I have a fenced yard where both Murphy and your furry loved one can play and hang out. For overnight stays I have a large adult dog kennel that can accommodate a Mastiff just as comfortably as it can my Min Pin (who believes he’s the size of a Mastiff). 😄 I have an older dog with lots of energy and plays well with other dogs. I am an active person, so neighborhood walking is available for dogs with proper training. I can also provide some minor training reinforcement for puppies or young dogs learning new skills and/or tricks. 🐾 Tips are APPRECIATED!!! 🐾 I work from home! 🙌🏾 So my schedule is flexible and allows me to be able to work with and respond to clients in a timely manner. My home is fenced. All pets remain on the property unless they are taken for walks. I also will let clients know about overlaps in booking wih animals.

“Jess is absolutely my 1 and only go to for caring for my sweet baby. After such a terrible experience with my previous sitter .. jess has been a breath of fresh air. She takes amazing care of Nova! And Nova just loves her and all her friends she gets to see when she visits. Jess is patient and kind and really treats your pets as her own. Nova gets to run around and gets nap times throughout the day. Jess makes sure she addresses the needs of each dog individually and they each get the attention they need. I would 100% recommend her EVERY SINGLE TIME”
“Simply the best! Vicki and William love the pups in their care and go the extra mile. They have been so good helping our puppy Hazel socialize, play, and grow into a happy teenage dog for the past year. She is always so excited to go to daycare and is a very happy, tired dog after.”
“Angela and her rescue pack are great! She’s so kind, comforting, and understanding with our shy anxious rescue girl. Her boys Ernie and Jerry are a nice bonus to help socialize Gretchen with other dogs. I also appreciate Angela’s open honest and frequent communication.”

Making time for multiple things multitasking , and juggle activities throughout the week. I make sure to have my whole week in order for new opportunities I will make a safe space for them and make sure they are comfortable in that area with all the things they need in front of them
About: In a fast paced environment it is easy to overlook our place in the world as animals. Being in close contact with other beings can create connectedness and a sense of place in nature. Simple tasks like dog walking may seem beneath most people, but I see it as an act graciousness and a chance to connect to other beings. As a walker or sitter my goal is to consciously occupy space with your pet. This, for me, means accommodating and changing as situations seem fit. I would also like to stay conscious of any owners wishes and feelings regarding the service I may provide and remember that it is only a service if it works to make their and their pets experience more comfortable.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life. I would walk my dogs daily, to explore and go to the bathroom. I would also groom them myself. I am also familiar with cats too. I currently work part-time flexible shift during the week. I am available for boarding after 9 a.m. and on the weekends. I also specialize with deaf dogs. I will be getting gates and crates if needed fur your fur babies. When outside your puppy will me monitored at all times. Safety is #1 for all pups.
About: I possess extensive training that equips me to handle various situations, including managing aggressive behavior in animals. My experience ensures that I can navigate challenges effectively and provide a safe environment for both pets and their owners. Additionally, my knowledge extends to administering medication, allowing me to cater to pets with specific health needs. I love taking funny pictures of them too lol I’m currently the owner of the sweetest kitten, so it is already a part of my daily routine to care for and love my furry friend. I am very gentle, loving, patient, cautious and kind. I can carefully but easily follow specific instructions for special medical procedures if that’s ever needed.
About: Hi there! My name is Grace. I was a dog owner for a long time, and now I'm hoping to meet some new dogs and help you out in the process. I love to jog, and would be happy to take your dog for a run. I love to play fetch or whatever your dog's favorite game is. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I'm trained as a paramedic, so I'm responsible and cool-headed during emergencies. I love all dogs, but rescues and those scrappy-looking mutts hold a special place in my heart. I have experience with larger breeds as well. There's no dog too big or small for me! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I can devote as much time to your animals as you need! I am available on short notice. I love to stay active, so I love going for walks or playing with animals. I live right across from a park with tons of space to run and play.
About: I have had dogs since I was born. I have experience dealing with training puppies as well as dealing with senior dogs. I will follow your instructions for care to the T because I know how important it is for dogs to have stable training and schedules. I will take your dog to the park, out on a walk, on a run, or with me around town. In my mind dogs are part of the family and I will treat them as one of my own for as long as I have the privilege to take care of them. I have two rescues, both fixed that get along great with other dogs. I foster for several rescues so i know how to deal with different temperaments of dogs. Your dog will receive the same care as mine and all the same walks/runs/play time. I work from home so I am able to take your dog outside, for walks, and ensure they are getting the exercise they need to thrive. I have a fenced in yard, gated front porch, and a gate on the stairs. The dogs will have full access to the basement (dog proofed) and first floor. Access to the top floor will be for bedtime (if the routine is the dog sleeps in the bed). We also have a playpen and crates here at the house.
About: My love for animals runs deep, beginning with my fifteen year old yorkee, Riley🐾, and my two year old kitty, Daisy🌸. I can provide the endless energy needed for puppies and the gentle patient care needed for senior dogs with health problems My day job is only part time, so I have plenty availability for pet care!! Even early mornings (starting at 6am), late nights (10pm latest), or anytime in between😋. I always respect the boundaries of pets and match personalty. Whether your fur baby is energetic and upbeat, or shy and unsure (cats included😉), I will care for them with love and patience.
“Gary is the best!! He's so amazing with my pups! They love him and really enjoy their walks with him. And, he really helped me out when I found myself in need of a walker on short notice. Can't say enough how thankful I am for him & Rover.com!!”
About: I've had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with both dogs and cats as well as smaller pets like hamsters and fish, so caring for animals has always felt second nature to me. I currently live with three cats and am very comfortable with feline routines, personalities and special needs. I also have experience with small and large dogs; from growing up with a Chihuahua to caring for an American Bulldog, so I understand how different sizes and temperaments require different approaches. I am attentive, patient, and always focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable and cared for while you're away. I currently work Tuesday-Saturday in the afternoons (typically from 3:30pm-8pm with the occasional later nights). I am available in the mornings for check-ins, quality time, play time, feedings, and walks and I'm happy to help pets start their day calmly and on a schedule. I communicate clearly if my evening availability changes and always prioritize routines and consistency for the pets in my care. Safety, trust and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in your home so pets can stay in a familiar environment, keeping their routines consistent and minimizing stress. I follow all feeding, walking and care instructions closely, maintain a clean and calm space, and pay attention to details to ensure your pets safety and well-being. My goal is to make both you and you pet confident and relaxed while you're away.
About: Hello I Am a loving dog and cat mom, I currently foster for Nashville humane society. I have always had a pet in my home ever since i was a small child i love all animals.I prefer dogs because they are more playful but cats are also a lot of fun. I have worked with local trainers to learn new techniques on potty training and behavior and i am good about showing positive reinforcement for good behavior. While in my home or in yours, or even out for walks, i will treat your furbaby no different then i would treat my own. With all of the same love and care that you would give your own pet. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
About: I had a wonderful dog named Miles who passed in 2021. He was my first experience with my own animal friend and it was one of the best experiences of my life. He needed a lot of care in his last couple of years (he died when he was 16) as he had arthritis and other age related issues that required a lot of love and patience. Currently I have a cat named Alice who is a sweet orange cat with lots of personality. I look forward to making some new animal friends! I currently work full time two miles from my house so I am able to come home for a long lunch break when needed. For over night stays a Friday through Sunday would work best for me so that I can provide lots of attention to your pet. I care for my cat by providing her with a stimulating environment. Lots of pets, lots of love, and attention. I would do the same for your beloved animal friend.
About: Hi! I'm David. I grew up in Michigan surrounded by dogs and farm animals. Labrador Retrievers were the family favorite, however, I rescued a Basset Hound Mix during the pandemic. One of my college jobs was working at a doggy daycare center. I was quickly promoted to manager and ended up rolling out a marketing plan for the business. It was a blast! I live in Metro Detroit (Oak Park) and am currently "funemployed" which means I have all the time in the world to take care of your furry companions! I take pride in my ability to be patient, gentle, responsible, and fun with all kinds of dogs, sizes, and ages. I have vast and diverse experience taking care of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, horses, and birds. During college, I volunteered at various humane societies and frequently dog sat for friends and relatives. I was also instrumental in co-training a Golden Retriever to be a service dog. That was a highly rewarding experience. My approach to dog care is to start with the owner and get to know the dog through their eyes. I then channel that love and devotion to esteemed care, ensuring that walks are done frequently, food is out at a responsible time, and that enough attention is spent with the dog. I'm an outdoors guy and walk whenever I get the chance, so rest assured that your dog will get a healthy amount of outside time. If you've made it this far and like what you've read, let's schedule a meet-and-greet! I take my pup for walks at least four times a day, and let her roam free in my fenced in backyard. I provide attention and care throughout the day! I'm very respectful not only of my client's pets, but also their homes. I'm very trustworthy and neat/tidy. I've dog sat in many homes both for the day and overnight. I treat other people's property as if it were my own.
About: I’ve been surrounded by and taking care of dogs since I was young. I have experience with all ages, giving medications and with handling reactive dogs. I am currently working full time (4-5 days) as a server/bartender. My shifts are short(4-5hrs) and usually in the late morning or early evening so I always have part of my day to dedicate to your pet. I do not offer boarding services but I am more than happy to visit your pet and make sure they are comfortable, fed and walked if needed. I enjoy interacting with animals and assessing their body language to meet their needs.

“Whitley is the absolute best! Gave our dog so much love, movement, and fun! Marshall loved playing with her dog too. She was super accommodating when our flight was delayed too.”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“Queeny took excellent care of our pup! She shared pictures and videos every day to keep us updated how he was doing. Her communication was excellent, very responsive, and she was flexible when we encountered a delay in our travel plans that impacted our scheduled pick-up time. We will definitely have Queeny watch our pup again the next time we take a vacation!”
“Steven has cared for my dog twice now and my dog has come back home well cared for and happy. Steven is accommodating and communicates well. Due to delays in our trip he kept our dog for longer and helped us. Thanks”
“This would be like our 3rd time using Rahied! He was absolutely great as usual! He went above and beyond for Cobra! I think Cobra misses him and especially his son already! 😆😁”
“Cody was so great with our golden retriever, Snoop! His dog seemed to get along well with Snoop and it was great to know he was in a good environment being well taken care of!”
“Jess is wonderful. I have engaged her twice to board my American Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Both times issues arose, one was a health issue and another where my flight was cancelled and I needed extra days of care. She cheerfully accommodated the situation and put my mind at ease during a stressful time. She takes great care of Halle, who is a rescue and can be reactive towards other dogs. I usually have to give a lot of instructions for sitters, but not so much with Jess, she just knows what to do. I especially noticed that Halle was more relaxed after staying with Jess. Now that she is used to her, I feel really comfortable leaving Halle with Jess.”
“Anna did a great job was little Maizie, she is only 7lbs, but Anna’s Ruby was so sweet to her 🥰 Anna was really attentive to Maizie’s eating habits - she is a picky eater and was able to eat her full meal by day two, would love to rebook with Anna again.”
“Theresa and Adrian took great care of our dog while we were away for 5 days! They communicate thoroughly and share updates daily. They even went above and beyond by sleeping on the couch with our dog on his first night when he was showing signs of anxiety. Highly recommend their services!”
“My girls returned for another stay with LaTash. Once again, they had the best time and were well taken care of. I am so blessed to have found a pet sitter like LaTash. I am extremely comfortable with her taking care of my babies!!!”
“My dogs Nimbu and Sona have stayed with Vicki and her husband multiple times and they always have the BEST time! They are so kind and respectful and always go above and beyond for us and our pups! They send the best photos and we absolutely love them! If you need to board your dogs you should ABSOLUTELY go with Vicki!!!”
“I felt like they took care of Carter like he was their own pet. They sent periodic photos on how he was doing. Those were much appreciated. I will definitely use book with them again.”
“First time booking with Angela and it won’t be our last! She was incredibly kind and considerate when taking on Wade. The meet & greet went great and the stay was even better. It’s clear she cares about animals and their needs. Wade had a great time! Great communication throughout his stay and very accommodating! Highly recommend.”
“Monica is absolutely awesome! She is so kind and sent lots of funny updates when I was out of town to keep me in the loop. My dog was all smiles when I picked him up. He slept for like 2 days straight after getting home so they must have stayed busy & had lots of fun lol. Looking forward to boarding with her again in the future. Thanks again!”
“Mariana was awesome! Had a need for a dog sitter last minute and she came through for us. I believe this was the first time Ava has actually eaten her food regularly somewhere else other than our own home. She came back nice and tired as an added bonus. Definitely would book again!”
“They were fantastic! I felt like I left my dogs in great and capable hands. They were great with keeping me updated and sending photos. Very responsive and flexible with me. Would definitely use them again.”
“Gabrielle is awesome. This is the second time she’s watched Brady and we would use her again in a heartbeat. It was for our wedding and she even sent us cute pictures of Brady with a bow tie emoji on the big day.”
“This was our first time boarding with Kara and we are very happy! Kara sent pictures and updates on how toast was doing. Communication was great and she’s very friendly! We definitely will be booking with Kara again! 😁”
