“As always amazing! This one was a long stay, over 2 weeks! But I never ever worry, not for a moment. Every day is fun day when they are with Karen & Del. Ellie didn’t want to come home lol. Thank you!”

“Taylor has watched my dog twice this month and done an excellent job!! She is very consistent and easy to communicate with. She provides updates and lots of photos. I travel multiple times a month and will be using her every time!”

“Hosts were great, my dogs were happy and enjoyed the company of the host family, I got updates and was ensured my doggos were well taken care of - will for sure use them for all my future dog sitting needs”


“This was our first time using Lexy since we just moved to the area she serves. She was fabulous! She kept our in-house dog at her home and came to our home to feed the outside dog. She was very responsive, accommodating to our schedule changes and took excellent care of our pets. So relieved to have found our new local pet sitter!”

“This was my first time leaving my dogs with someone I didn’t know. I was a little uneasy at first but Rick was so kind and made the transition so easy. I loved the picture updates! He has a big property with a big fenced in back yard. Plenty of space to run and play. I chose Rick for Eevee & Pickles’s weekend sleepover because of all the glowing reviews. And he did not disappoint! We will definitely be back in the future and will recommend Rick’s service to everyone!”
About: You know what I like about people? Their dogs. While it's not "formal' I do have all the experience of someone who has grown up with pets their entire lives. Mostly (big) dogs but also cats, ducks, chickens, geese, donkey, parakeet, ferrets, several rats (my fav!), turtles, and fish. So as long as it's not a bug I'm totally into it! 🙂 I am capable of bathing, nail clipping, brushing teeth, cleaning ears, etc. I have 2 children. One school age, the other is a year. My days are spent caring for them. My oldest is about to start school for the year so I will have plenty of extra time. We love animals and have 2 dogs of our own. Learning how to care for and RESPECT our animal friends is very important to us. Setting boundaries and learning what behaviors are acceptable and which are not is an important part of teaching children about and how to care for pets.
“Haley took care of my 1yr old dog Rocco for almost 2 weeks. I’m so thankful for her because she did an absolutely fantastic job watching Rocco! She was attentive, caring, and made sure he felt comfortable and loved while I was away. Rocco seemed so happy and well taken care of when I returned. I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. Rocco also enjoyed spending time with her dog Nala. Haley kept me posted throughout the entire time I was away which I really enjoyed. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone flexible, reliable and compassionate!”

“If you need a pet sitter and you are in Markie's travel area, don't hesitate to enlist her. Markie is very conscientious and caring. My cats are shy and leery of strangers. Unbelievably, Markie was able to make "friends" with my girl. Next time I need a sitter, I will definitely hire Markie. No doubt. Thank you Markie!!!”

About: I’ve actually been pet sitting for years and have volunteer experience with the ASPCA. I’ve cared for senior and special needs dogs. We love all pets though I’ve even pet sat lizards snakes and cats. My schedule is pretty flexible I work remotely as a contractor for a big company Monday through Friday. Although I’d prefer daytime bookings let me know what you’re needing My dogs eat chicken free food cause our pug is allergic. Mushu’s special care is we wipe his wrinkles & ears daily with a weekly bath. Buddy is a tank who can eat anything but he needs his paws trimmed once a month. Buddy deals with anxiety from being a sheepdog with no sheep so he has lots of toys and an occasional cbd treat.

I have 5 years of vet tech experience and can help with oral or injectable medications.

About: I treat every cat with patience and respect for their unique personality. I’m comfortable with shy cats, seniors who need medication or extra care, and keeping routines consistent to reduce stress. I provide gentle attention, clean litter boxes thoroughly, and send regular updates so you always feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I have had and taken care of dogs since I was about 8 years old. I've had friends and family members rely on me for doggy sitting, bathing, and walking. I definitely believe that dogs are family not just pets and they deserve to be treated as family members. I have a pretty open schedule so I'd love to work with doggos and their humans to find what suits their need. I want to get to know every individual to get to know to best way to be of service! I'm willing to give needed care and playtime for fur babys with a variety of needs or personalities. I love going on walks for fresh air and sunshine as well.

About: We have both grown up surrounded by all kinds of animals of every age range, big and small, along with some volunteer work at various shelters. Emily is currently a nursing student and Johnny works full time. We work together at our bookings and at least one of us should always be available! We are more than happy to update you with lots of photos and videos if you wish, we also have a dog of our own, Bear! He is social and friendly and we would love to have him tag along with us if allowed! As for animals coming to our home, they will need to do well with other people and animals in order for us to accommodate.
About: I was raised with lots of puppies and other animals. I have two fur babies now, Oakley and Remi! I would love to visit your babies and keep them company while you are away from them. I work full time but have a couple days off a week on a rotating schedule. I am willing to travel and make our schedules work together as best as possible. Leaving your pets is very difficult but I would love to be able to help ease your worries! I am responsible and trustworthy. You would not have to worry about the job not getting done.
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a small child but as I’ve gotten older I’ve become extremely interested in the training and grooming side of things. I’ve got experience with dogs ranging from 3 months to as old as 15 years old. I myself go hiking and walking with my dogs (2 year old Australian cattle dog mix) on a daily basis so I’m familiar with regularly exercising dogs. I’ve walked dogs for family members and friends so I’m familiar with walking dogs of all sizes, shapes and temperaments. I’m currently unemployed so I spend more of my time walking and hiking with my personal dogs, I’m very focused on dog training as well. I typically spend about 4-6 hours a day out with my dogs. I’ve been a pet sitter for various family members, sometimes staying with their pets for up to a week. Daily walks, mental stimulation and some training goes a long way for a pup being taken care of by someone else!

About: I have taken care of every type of animal since I was 16 years old. I have gone to school for animal science as well to currently working on my degree as a veterinary technician and animal nutritionist. From puppies to geriatric dogs. To newborn kittens and senior cats. I can also take care of any reptiles or amphibians. Anything you need of me, I can do, including rodents. Distributing medication or even helping your dog do their daily exercise. I have knowledge and experience with previously working at the Emergency Veterinary Clinic. * Hi! Thank you for your interest in having me watch your loved ones while you plan to be away. In order to provide you with the most accurate information, please be sure to have the following before confirmation: - please make sure you have all information rover needs about your pet filled out. - Include all animals (even exotic) and feeding instructions for everyone. - Any medications or medical needs while you plan to be away. (Seizure, diabetic, etc). - Anything special that I may need to know. In order to maintain better scheduling, please note I plan to do a meet and greet up to two weeks in advance.* Please keep in mind while housesitting, I do have occasional drop in visits for other clients and try not to be gone for more than 4 hours at a time. If you are needing me to mainly stay in your home, I do charge extra. I am available anytime you need me! I have my own routine for my animals. Pet care is my priority, always. Whether its mine or yours. My animals have routine and structure. I also have a fenced in back yard. Everyone knows how the routine works as far as time outside to play, cuddle, and the feeding schedule.
