“Tara was great. We were nervous to leave our dog since it was the first time she was ever away from us. Tara provided daily updates and pictures which eased our minds. I will use her again.”
“Gave us regular updates and helped make what was a chaotic weekend for me and my girlfriend, a nice peaceful getaway with no worries. Can’t thank them enough!”
“Kind, friendly, so easy to work with. Rahied made what was an anxious situation for me, completely worry-free. I couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker. I knew my furry friend was in good hands right at the moment I met Rahied. I have no reservations about recommending him.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Anjana! She took great care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the stay. We truly appreciated her kindness, reliability, and attention to detail. Highly recommend!”
“Tiffany was my main point of contact and she was so sweet and caring with my senior (14yo) husky mix Molly. I received updates each day morning, and night, and she took my Moll Doll on tons of walks. Molly got to sleep on furniture and I can tell she had the time of her life in the new comfy environment. It was such a relief knowing that she was so well loved while I was away that now I feel like I need to take her back for visits to her new favorite home away from home.”
“This was the first time using a sitter, and Kerri eased my concerns from the minute we met. She truly loves being a sitter, it shows in the care the dogs are given. I received videos of Jake playing in the yard each day 💕💕 I would recommend Kerri to anyone that is looking for a sitter and will use her again in the future.”
“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!!!”
“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.”
“Oliver had an amazing time with Whitley and her pup Ollie! They were so cute together, playing and having fun. I was nervous as this was the first time Oliver stayed with someone he didn’t know and Whitley made him feel comfortable and happy. Thank you!”

“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.”

“Julie is great and is very flexible. Our pup Riley liked her instantaneously. She is quick in responding to messages and sends regular updates and pictures. We recommend Julie.”
“Megan did a great job taking care of my baby while I was gone on a vacation for the long weekend. I received daily updates, pictures and videos of my dog playing with her puppy. She also bathed him and kept him in comfort during the Father’s Day fireworks. I am beyond impressed, thankful and appreciative to her love towards the fur babies!!”
“Queeny took such great care of my 5 month old puppy! She sent pictures and videos throughout the time of our Kaju being with her. She is also so attentive! At home we get Kaju’s water from the filtered fridge water spout out of habit and Queeny noticed that Kaju wasn’t drinking tap water and provided him with filtered water. I absolutely recommend Queeny!”

“Sarah did a GREAT job taking care of my cats. She established a bond very quickly. Twice a day visits sure helped! They were well taken care of, e.g brushed, fed, liter cleaned, and area around the liter box and dishes were kept clean. Sarah also kept me well informed, which I sincerely appreciated. Thank you, Sarah!”

Animals love me so there's no need to worry about anything at all! I love them as much as people so they will be treated like royalty.

About: I’ve had animals around me since I was younger than 10 years young. I’ve raised 2 puppies (Great Dane & Keeshound) in my short life, rescued a pair of sibling old cats and have had many exotic animals I’ve cared for. There hasn’t been a time in my life that I can remember that I didn’t have pets around to take care of and love on! I currently work only the weekends for myself and would love nothing more than to spend time with your pets during the week! I love spending time animals, especially in the outdoors so walks and drop ins are perfect for me! I do have a fenced in yard if I ever needed to keep your fur babies overnight. Since raising my own two puppies I do have a lot of experience with walks and feedings.

I am very comfortable around bigger dogs and would love to take care of yours! I lost my black lab German shepherd a couple years ago. I took a fur baby break, but now I have my baby puppy Luna who is a golden retriever mix. We also grew up with cats. For the month of July I am working part time so I have more time to look after your fur babies. For the month of July I work part time so I have extra free time to look after your fur babies.

I would also love to drop in and will double check the lock upon leaving.
About: I grew up with cats and have spent many years around varying personalities. I work with rescue cats and understand the patience and kindness that is required. Cats are such unique animals and should be treated as such! * I do not currently own any cats, so I apologize for the lack of kitty profile photo!
About: I have raised my fur babies as well as taken care of family and friends throughout those years. I have administered medications and cared for sickly pups. I have walked, cleaned up after, bathed and fed mine and their pets. I have a pretty flexible schedule with the line of work I currently am in.

“Tiffany and Steven watched my Great Dane puppy this time and gave him so much love! He can be a real handful and I needed some space to get my home ready to sell. They treated him like their own and sent so many cute pics. He got to go on lots of walks, have the bed to himself (and the humans) , and got to play with all the toys he could find. Otto had a blast. I cant recommend them enough. Thank you guys so much!”
“OUTSTANDING (AAA+++) Dog Sitter who followed all of our dog's dietary needs for 3 days, exercised our labrador every day in his HUGE fenced in back yard, and sent us multiple photos of dog throughout the day and even when sleeping!! C'mon now! Rohit was absolutely exceptional in every way. I would highly recommend Rohit to any concerned pet owner who wants to vacation worry free!”

My next door neighbor has a very small dog on the other side of the fence. The opposite side has no pets.

About: On top of having a genuine love for animals I am also task, oriented and believe in the upmost respect and welfare of each pet coming to my home. Pets are treated as part of my family however, I recognize that they are also held to a higher standard due to being a distinguished visitor in my home it is not only my pleasure But my duty to provide the best care possible for the best Rover experience. Phase 1 – Introduction An in-person or virtual meet-and-greet where the owner and I determine if care is a good fit. Phase 2 – Initial Care Day Often the hardest transition for the pet, but made easier for both the owner and me through successful meet-and-greets Phase 3 – Companionship This stage focuses on building rapport with the pet through bonding activities. Each day includes at least 30 minutes and three activities (e.g., walks, toys, fetch, petting, treats, and rewards). Phase 4 – Integration (for boarding or multi-day visits) At this stage, the pet becomes part of the daily routine and begins to see me as their temporary caregiver. Phase 5 – Reunion The happiest moment—when the pet reunites with their owner. Their excitement and expressions are truly priceless.

He loves being there and learning how to be a good dog from Samantha and the rest of her pack. Samantha makes sure to work on socialization, commands and gives the pups great treats too.

About: I’ve had many dogs of my own. My mom bought my first dog when I was 10 and my family and I experienced taking care of dogs over the years. We’ve experienced pregnant dogs, puppies, older dogs with arthritis, and much more. Just recently, I had the opportunity to dog sit my cousin’s husky Bella for a few months and I enjoyed it very much! I currently work part-time. The good thing about my job is that I don’t work long hours and my job is literally 5 mins from my home where your due baby will be. 3 days out of the 7 days of week I do not work and the other 4 days I only work up to 6 hours so I do have some free time to tend to your fur baby. No fenced in backyard however, in the even that your dog/puppy runs lose, my neighborhood is very friendly and familiar with who’s pet is who’s and they will try their hardest to return your fur baby.
About: My family bred dogs since I was born, so I’ve been active in animal care my whole life. Worked for a level 1 animal hospital during my pregnancy, learning the basics of emergency care for pets. I’m a stay at home mom with 2 dogs of my own that I’m already providing care and time for. I’m only away from home an hour or so at most to be able to come take care of my dogs again. I have any animals crated if I’m unable to keep my full attention on them, they are let out in a fenced yard every 1-2 hours for bathroom and extra play, and I have available extra space for special needs cases of pets that need their space.
About: After recently losing our two beloved fur babies back-to-back due to old age, our home has felt much quieter. We truly miss the love, companionship, and joy that pets bring each day, and we would be honored to care for your furry family members as if they were our own. Because I’m home full-time, your pets will receive plenty of attention, supervision, snuggles, and personalized care throughout the day. From hourly potty breaks and daily walks to playtime, cuddles, and a calm, loving environment, their comfort and happiness are my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I promise to provide a safe, loving home where they’ll feel welcomed, cared for, and treated like family every step of the way. I do work from home so I’m able to provide multiple breaks at all times of the day! If your pet is on a certain schedule please let me know. Your pup is my pup when in my care! They’re allowed to lounge on furniture and cuddle with me! They’ll feel right at home. Your pet will feel loved!
About: I love dogs and recently lost my Whoodle after 13 years. I have had dogs for most of my adult life including a Bichon Frise, Whoodle, and a Doberman mix. I am good with senior dogs and puppies. I crate trained my last two dogs until they were 2 years old. I have dog sat for numerous family members and friends.. I have dog bowls, leashes, lots of toys and just need some cool dogs to hang out with :-) I am mainly looking to care for dogs on long weekends right now because I am back to working in office several days a week. I will be able to ensure the longest your dog will be left alone will be 4 hours. I have a large yard but not fenced in so I will be taking them out on a leash in the yard and for walks. I also have a park at the end of my street. I can do crate trained dogs but you would need to bring their crate. I do allow dogs on the couch and in the bed. I took care of a blind Bichon with diabetes for 3 years so I can care for older blind or deaf dogs and can administer insulin or other meds if needed.
About: I have raised and cared for 7 different breeds and strays over my almost 40 years on this planet and have come to the conclusion that dogs are better than people I am a stay at home dad. I take care of my babies and fur babies everyday. I have 3 lovable dummies I take care of daily. They are absolutely lovable and pet friendly I have a fenced in yard that all the doggies can play. I spoil my dogos with kongs filled with peanut butter and snausage treats. If I'm eating they will get a healthy treat

About: I grew up with dogs, so caring for them is second nature to me. I am able to do basic grooming as well as bathing!

I have experience with both large/extra large dogs as well as small dogs, with varying activity levels. I am currently home from college for summer break. I have church on Sunday mornings as well as karate Monday evenings, but other than that I am free to care for your fur babies! I am open and willing to adapt to the needs of your fur babies to the best of my ability. I have experience with fenced in yards and e-collars/invisible fences.

About: I am an experienced foster animal caregiver, and a teacher. I offer a totally open schedule during the summer and on weekends. I’ve taken care of animals since a young age; I’ve personally had, kittens, cats, dogs, puppies, chickens, fish, and hamsters too. I have experience in crate training, potty training, basic obedience and leash training as well. Currently I have a male Golden Retriever in my home who is not neutered due to breed standards- he will be as soon as he is old enough, and he is up to date on all his vaccines and shots. He is well mannered and loves all animals- we have hosted puppies and dogs through the foster rescue and all were successful :) I am currently a teacher, so my weekends and “breaks” are fully open; beginning in June will be home full time! I wake up pretty early and like to spend time in the backyard with my resident doggie and any fosters I have playing with toys, balls, or sticks. Then I move into a short training session based on what the pups need- if it’s just my resident dog I usually work on a new command or leash skills. We head inside and usually it’s nap time (where the pups can relax on the couch if they want)! After naps or relaxing time we go back outside for more playtime, or go for a walk and repeat throughout the day. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in backyard and a very friendly/playful golden retriever pup to keep your doggies company. I do have a separate “doggie room” which has crates, beds, toys, etc on hand just in case the pup needs a break or some adjustment time- and in there we have extra collars and leashes. We have two baby gates that block of the bathroom and front door area so the doggies don’t get into cleaning supplies or slip out the front door :)
About: I’ve always had great experiences of taking care of pets since childhood. From taking care of my own, pet sitting for friends while they’re out of town as well as working at a doggy daycare for a year. I have experience with both cats & dogs of various sizes and ages. Currently I have open availability for house sitting (Sunday through Saturday) and will be available for dog walking and check ins Wednesday through Saturday (mornings and afternoons). I cannot board pets at my home since I share my living space at this time, however, I’m opening to visit/stay at the client’s home if needed.
About: Hi There! My name is Megan and I’m the kind of dog person who cheers for zoomies, applauds good sniffs, and treats every walk like a mini field trip. Big dogs, tiny dogs, goofy dogs—I adore them all and make sure they get exercise, fun, and plenty of happy tail wags. Looking forward to working with you! Working part-time allows me the time and freedom to walk your dog along with assisting with any check-ins that may be needed, ensuring that your pet is always taken care of! I provide safe, attentive, and joyful walks tailored to each dog’s needs. I make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise, positive interaction, fresh water, and a calm return home. I treat every dog with the same care and respect I give my own.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and caretaker. With my own animals in adulthood, I’ve found incredible joy building bonds with them through training and adventures. I enjoy learning from professional trainers and using their techniques to create a great relationship with animals. I have a flexible schedule right now with extra time for walks and drop-in visits both during the week and on weekends! If you’re unsure whether timing lines up with my calendar, don’t hesitate to ask. Pet safety is always top of mind for me. I’m conscientious about factors like temperature, escape opportunities, animal encounters, and unexpected food, glass, etc. I closely observe your pet’s behavior to track comfort and stress levels so I can adjust as needed.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since day one. I've been pet sitting since I was a young girl, and that really honestly prepared me for motherhood. As a mama of 4, and a doggy mama of 2 your pets will get the love they need with me! Ive got a lot of energy to play with more high energy dogs, and I love to just chill with the couch potatoes. I’ve had puppies and dogs all my life so if you’re in a training regiment I’m happy to help keep that consistent on my visits! My schedule is also very flexible so I’m available most days, even for last minute bookings. Just shoot me a message and I’ll be happy to make it work! Any special instructions for you cat or dog? No problem! Send all the tips and tasks my way! I’d be happy to do anything from bathing, to administering medication to grooming! All I know is I can’t wait to meet your special lass or lad!
About: Hello all! I am a huge animal lover and have been an avid volunteer at various shelters for many years. I have been a trusted sitter for many friends and family members, and have pets of my own who are very much part of my family. I have a great deal of experience with many different breeds, some positive reinforcement training experience, and some basic first aid/troubleshooting experience. I will always treat any animal within my care as my own, and take my responsibility of being trusted with someone's family member incredibly seriously. I work from home on a varied, part-time schedule. I plan to use the late morning/early afternoon hours when I am typically free to do walks and/or check-ins and can do overnights as needed when my schedule allows. Making sure there is not "people food" easily accessible to the pet when that's a concern, being mindful of small parts they may try to eat and choke on etc. Making sure the animal has enrichment activities to make it less likely they will chew on or destroy anything they aren't supposed to. Paying attention to notes on pet profiles, making myself aware of any concerns with cats/dogs/kids/food aggression etc. Being sure to lock & double check doors before bed or when leaving the property.
About: I am first-aid certified for both cats and dogs by the American Red Cross. I currently work as a dog bather, and have had previous experience as a dog daycare attendant. I am the one my family calls on whenever they need a sitter for their furry/scaly friends, on top of caring for my own animal family members. I am a huge animal lover and have a deep passion for the well being and happiness for all of them, big or small, young or old, furry or scaly! I currently work as a dog bather, and the longest shifts I do are 9 hours maximum. My schedule is fairly flexible at the moment, so if your pet needs more frequent care/potty breaks, I will most likely be able to adjust my work schedule. Just let me know! In my eyes, pets should be treated like family. Although I cannot watch your pet in my own home, I will make sure they are extremely comfortable in yours while you're away. I will provide an appropriate amount of play time, make sure they get frequent potty breaks, feed them on their established schedule, and of course give them lots of cuddles if they like that!
“Samantha is amazing, she never failed to send pictures and get plenty of exercise with my insanely hyper dog, he just loved her. In February of this year I got into a horrible accident and didn’t wake up for two days, I lived alone and my dog didn’t have anyone, I woke up in the ICU and Samantha was the first one I got a hold of knowing she had a key. She showed and saved my dogs life, my keys were lost in the accident and I had no way to get home. She safely got the key to my family and Obsidian is safe and healthy with me traveling across the United States and happier then ever. I couldn’t thank her enough for being that reliable. I don’t know what I would ever do without my boy.”
“She got my boy who likes to sniff everything to stay moving and walk 2.5 miles! I got pictures and video all along the way...and I am sure he will sleep the rest of the afternoon while we are at work!! Adding her to my list of favorites!”
About: I am the person that my friends call whenever they have issues with their pets. They know I like animals more than them anyway :) I do currently work full time. 2 days at home 3 days in office. However, my spouse and I schedule over lap which my animals are not left alone for more than 4 hrs on the days I am in office. I have a fenced in yard and sweet 8 yr old girl named Lola. If you would like to have your pup crated I can provide. I am very accommodating.
About: I have 4 cats and 2 dogs of my own who are very socialized! I’m great at training fur babies if they need any and I have lots of energy to keep up with them as well! My partner and I recently bought our home in Detroit that has a good size yard for play space for your dogs! I also do date night sitting in the surrounding areas so I have no problem driving out to give your fur babies a potty break and some love when you’re out at work. I have been doing house sitting along with pet sitting for some time now so I have great references if needed! I am married, no children yet and as I mentioned have 2 dogs and 4 kitties! They’re all very friendly and welcoming to others. I work from home so I have time to give love and as many potty breaks as they need while they are here! I treat all dogs like my own. I have a fenced yard and will do lots of supervised play time in it! My dogs love to play with other dogs as well, all supervised of course!
About: I work from home so your pet will not be left home alone for extended periods of time. I am kind, compassionate, and patient. I have knowledge of working with a variety of pet personalities, including those shy and nervous. I have extensive experience working with dogs including working in a boarding kennel, at a pet store, and at a dog park. I also have 15 years of house and pet sitting experience. My personal experience includes being around dogs my entire life. My family has always had them in the home and once I moved out, I gained a couple of my own. I have two dogs who are 100% pet friendly. I specialize in sensitive and older dogs who may have a hard time at a boarding kennel or in a more lively home. I have both a rescue and older dog who are sensitive and unable to be boarded outside of the home. I know how difficult this can be and would love to open my home to your pet when you are in need. Iwould like to make your dog sitter situation as stress-free as possible, and am willing to do what is required to diminish the worry that comes with leaving your pets in the care of someone else. My home is an excellent environment for the more particular pets, as it is tailored to my own. I live in a ranch with no other people in the home. There are no stairs and the majority of the floor is carpet, perfect for pets who have issues with mobility or fear regarding flooring. Pets are always given the option to socialize with us but if they prefer to be on their own to rest. We will not have visitors while your pup is a guest. I am a public school employee and do not work out of the home over the summer. Your pet will get plenty of attention and entertainment. I care for your dog as if it were my own. I can make accommodations on a dog by dog basis. My personal dogs have wildly different needs and I recognize that not all dogs have the same needs. I will do what is necessary to keep your dog happy, healthy, and safe.

“Gave us regular updates and helped make what was a chaotic weekend for me and my girlfriend, a nice peaceful getaway with no worries. Can’t thank them enough!”
“Kind, friendly, so easy to work with. Rahied made what was an anxious situation for me, completely worry-free. I couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker. I knew my furry friend was in good hands right at the moment I met Rahied. I have no reservations about recommending him.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Anjana! She took great care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the stay. We truly appreciated her kindness, reliability, and attention to detail. Highly recommend!”
“Tiffany was my main point of contact and she was so sweet and caring with my senior (14yo) husky mix Molly. I received updates each day morning, and night, and she took my Moll Doll on tons of walks. Molly got to sleep on furniture and I can tell she had the time of her life in the new comfy environment. It was such a relief knowing that she was so well loved while I was away that now I feel like I need to take her back for visits to her new favorite home away from home.”
“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!!!”

“Amie was amazing for our Bellamy! I could always count on detailed daily reports and pictures. I knew he was being cared for and loved just as at home. And playing with her dogs and family made him so happy! I think he already misses being at their house. 🥲”
“Bella & Flynt have a lot of medical issues, and Rohit is super communicative and keeps us updated on everything going on. Our dogs have so much fun and come home exhausted!”
“We recently moved and were looking for a new dog sitter. We are so happy we found Michelle! Our dog Niko made fast friends with her and felt right at home. She even repaired one of his favorite toys when it ripped. We look forward to continuing to work with Michelle!”
“Julie is great and is very flexible. Our pup Riley liked her instantaneously. She is quick in responding to messages and sends regular updates and pictures. We recommend Julie.”
“Queeny took such great care of my 5 month old puppy! She sent pictures and videos throughout the time of our Kaju being with her. She is also so attentive! At home we get Kaju’s water from the filtered fridge water spout out of habit and Queeny noticed that Kaju wasn’t drinking tap water and provided him with filtered water. I absolutely recommend Queeny!”
“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!!”
“Chelsea was great ! She texted pics of Dexter everyday and genuinely seemed to enjoy taking care of him. It’s so hard leaving him, especially since he can be an anxious dog. We were gone for a whole week and I didn’t have to worry about his well being. Would feel comfortable booking with her again !”
