I just want to tell you how amazing you are at dog sitting. You take such great care, and it really shows. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing Bella is with you. Thank you for everything you do!”
“This sitter was amazing I gave her 5 stars. She brushed my dog and my dog came back so happy and smelling so good! My dog had so much fun at their place. She responded quickly and also sent me pictures of my dog Pearl. Our flight got canceled and she let me rebook Pearl and just helped resolve so many worries. What a great sitter!! Wow my family was impressed. :) Thanks so much again!! Would definitely recommend!”
“Channon was so great. We left our 75 lb Pyrenees mix with Channon for two nights. Channon's dog Bizzy was the perfect playmate for our pup! She did a great job caring for him, sharing any concerns she had, and sending a video or two. We could tell that our pup was having a great time and felt very comfortable. Thank you Channon!!”

“Shanna was excellent! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and works with them regularly which is a plus! She is an expert in dealing with dogs of all kinds and different temperaments. she takes them on long walks in the beautiful forest where she lives and has a beautiful home that is viable for dogs. She was very detailed in her daily reports of Remi and I was comforted to know that she was with somebody who knows what they are doing!!”

She sends updates and plenty of photos while they are there. Highly recommend Carrie and we will definitely use her in the future if we need someone to watch our boys!”

“Talia did an amazing job caring for Dino. She sent photos and descriptions of their time together, making him part of her family. Dog parks, long walk and playtime with her family’s pet were just part of their routine. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. And he smelled great when I picked him up! She bathed him (which is no easy task.)”
“Ellie and Carson did an amazing job taking care of our sweet Uri! From the start, they were kind, communicative, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving Uri with them. You can tell they truly love animals and treat them like family. They made sure Uri was safe, happy, and well cared for while we were away. When we picked Uri up, he was excited and waiting at the door but yet he looked relaxed and content at the same time, which means everything to us as pet owners. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Uri was in such good hands. We are very grateful for the care and attention they gave him. We would absolutely trust Ellie and Carson to watch Uri again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable and caring dog sitters!”
“We had a great experience! Very accommodating to our dog’s needs and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for. It gave us peace of mind knowing our senior pup was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend and would happily book again. 🐾”

“I cannot say enough positive things about Jane! She took exceptional care of Kylie, kept in touch with us throughout Kylie's stay by sending pictures and videos AND she even celebrated Kylie's birthday with special treats in our absence.

About: My full time job allows for flexibility during the work day and allows me to work anywhere with wifi. I can often be in the home caring for your animals or taking them out more often than a traditional sitter who works a 9-5. I dog sit for many members of my family and have had dogs since I was 2 years old. I have a lot of experience giving medication and working with elderly animals. If I am available, I would love to set up a meet and greet to see if I would be a good fit! I work a flexible 9-5 and can drop in to walk or spend additional time caring for your animal(s) because of the flexibility! I wake up early as well! I treat each home like I am a true guest there and treat it and the animals if they were my own. I am very respectful of the rules and furniture.
About: We’re Jana and Kendric, and we both have hands on experience caring specifically for cats of all ages and personalities. We understand that cats have unique needs and routines, so we focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment where they feel safe and relaxed. Our experience includes feeding routines, litter box cleaning, playtime, brushing, and giving cats the space and patience they often prefer. We’re comfortable caring for everything from energetic kittens to senior cats who need a quieter and more attentive approach. We also pay close attention to cat behavior and body language, which helps us make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while their owner is away. If a cat is shy or takes time to warm up, we’re patient and gentle so they can adjust at their own pace. We’re happy to follow specific care instructions, including administering oral medications if needed. While you’re away, we provide regular updates and photos so you know your cat is safe, happy, and well cared for. Our goal is to make sure every cat feels secure, respected, and loved while you’re gone. 🐾🐱
“Valerie took care of my 3 cats while I was out of town. When I initially met her, she was great!! I knew that they’d be well taken care of. She was very informative and professional. And she also sent pictures. I would definitely recommend Valerie to anyone to take care of their fur babies!!! Awesome experience!!!😊😊😊”
About: Your pets are family, and they deserve the same care, attention, and affection they receive at home. I provide dependable, genuine pet care with a personal touch—treating every cat like they’re my own. I’ve cared for my 3 cats Bread, Tree and Toasty mama for a great long while. Simply put I enjoy animals and their company and little personality’s
About: I’ve owned cats throughout my life and taken care of my friend's, roommate's, and neighbor's cats since high school. I have been told I know how to get even the shyest cats to warm up to me. However, experience with my own extremely sassy cat has shown me how to cater to all pet needs, including alone time in a hiding spot.
“Christopher was super easy to work with, did exactly what he said he would, and was very kind! We are so pleased and will be working with him again in the future!”
“Kristy was the most perfect pet sitter for our kitty, Bear. This was our first time using Rover and it couldn’t have been a better experience. After meeting with Kristy we knew it’d be a great fit and that was clear during her visits with Bear. We received detailed updates with each visit, along with pictures and videos. There was no doubt that Bear loved the check in visits with Kristy!”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and have cared for many different pets throughout my life, including cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, and turtles. I’ve rescued animals, cared for my own pets for many years, and have experience dog-sitting for different families. I treat every pet like my own and want them to feel comfortable, happy, and loved while in my care. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule and am available for pet care around my classes and work. I’m especially available in the afternoons, evenings, and on days when I don’t have classes, and I’m happy to work with each owner to find a schedule that works best for their pet’s needs. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable and follow their normal routine. I can provide feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and other care based on each pet’s individual needs. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Kelly was awesome! I had last minute travel plans for the holidays and had never used Rover before, but I’m glad I did! She was prompt, communicative, and sent detailed updates/pictures so I could have peace of mind while away from my kitties. She even went above and beyond by offering to bring in my mail and cleaning up a mess one of my cats made. I would recommend her services to anyone!”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I also have a puppy of my own! I can take care of dogs or cats of any size or age! I am free weekdays and weekends. I can easily accommodate to your schedules and times. I have a puppy of my own. With a fenced in yard that she loves to stay in. I have a fenced in backyard. With a puppy of my own if needed company. I will have 24/7 care with your pup or cat. I am very flexible and can accommodate to any needs!
“Carmyne was amazing. She followed directions very well. Pitbulls can get a bad rep but she definitely took a chance on my sweet baby. Good looking out. Hopefully he sees you soon.”
About: I’ve had cats in my life for as long as I can remember — from playful kittens to senior cats with special needs. Over the years, I’ve cared for cats of all breeds, temperaments, and ages, giving me a deep understanding of feline behavior and how to earn their trust. What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and attention to detail. I’m certified in pet CPR and first aid, so you can feel confident your cat is in safe, capable hands. Whether your cat is shy, social, playful, or independent, I always respect their personality and routine while making sure they’re comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to handle feedings, litter box maintenance, medications, and of course — playtime, brushing, and cuddles (if your cat is into that!). My goal is to keep your cat feeling safe, secure, and loved while you’re away.

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I’ve spent more than 10 years caring for animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, including dogs, cats, and exotic pets. Having cared for such a variety of animals has taught me that every pet has their own routine, boundaries, quirks, and way of communicating. I also have personal experience raising and training puppies of my own, including potty training and teaching basic commands and simple tricks. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’m comfortable reinforcing the routines and training methods you already use at home so your pup has consistency while in my care. What sets me apart is that I’m comfortable with more than just the traditional furry family members. Whether your pet has paws, claws, scales, or a personality three times their size, I’m happy to learn their routine and provide patient, attentive care. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your pets, so I treat every animal with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. 🐾 My weekday schedule is very open and flexible, with general availability from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday. This gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, feeding schedules, playtime, and spending quality time with pets throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine whenever possible, whether that means an early morning potty break, midday walk, meals on schedule, or simply having someone around to keep them company. I’m currently focusing on weekday care and am not offering weekend services at this time. 🐾 Safety and comfort come first in my home or yours. I take the time to learn each pet’s normal routine, personality, boundaries, feeding schedule, and any household rules so I can keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible while you’re away. At my home, I have a friendly 4-year-old Boxer mix, plenty of toys and blankets for playtime and snuggles, and access to crating when needed or preferred. I also have a large backyard; however, it is not fenced, so visiting dogs are always supervised and kept securely leashed or on an appropriate lead while outside. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect both your pet’s routine and your space. I follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and make sure your pet feels safe and cared for in the environment they know best. 🐾
About: My family personally has never owned any pets for more than 3 years but I have close relatives and friends who have. I have been asked to dog walk, sit, board, bathe and so many other things that I actually genuinely enjoy. Im not saying im a dog whisper but I have found it very easy to get a long with almost any animal I have came in contact with. I love the easy connection you can make with an animal just in the first few minutes of meeting them. While the pay is definitely a plus I enjoy taking care hanging out with all sorts of pets and hopefully I will have the chance to meet yours! I am currently and online college student so most days my schedule is very open. My weekends tend to get a little busy but not until the summer time so I am usually very free then as well. I spend most of my time at home so your pet would be with me during the duration of whatever service is being provided, can always clear my day for any furball! While I do have an unfenced yard anytime the animal needs to be taken out I am willing to do multiple walks. My house is fair in size so they have plenty of room to roam and access to water and food unless their diet is specific. I will admit this is my first time doing this through an online service and taking care of the animal within my home ( if needed) but am excited to learn and allow for any accommodations that may need to be met.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats well over 40 years. This includes small and large animals of many breeds including young animals and also seniors with temperaments as well. I'm a dedicated animal lover with hands on experience caring for dogs and cats and other animals as well. I currently work from home so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet and allow potty breaks as needed as well. I have a fenced back yard and two friendly animals (cat and dog) to keep your fur baby happy and comfortable while being cared for. I will also provide companionship, cleaning litter boxes and pet areas, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities and my goal is to treat every pet s if they were my own, giving their owners peace while away and knowing they will be in good hands.
About: Hi! I’m Amanda, and dogs are a big part of everyday life in our home. I have several dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and the importance of making sure each dog receives the individual attention they need. I keep my boarding numbers limited because I want every dog staying with me to feel comfortable and cared for—not like they’re just one of many. My partner works from home, so someone is usually here throughout the day, and dogs are rarely left alone for long periods. We also have a fully fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised potty breaks, playtime, sniffing, and time outside throughout the day. I also have a wooded area behind my house for hiking adventures! A typical stay may include walks, outdoor time, enrichment, play, rest breaks, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I’m happy to adjust the routine based on your dog’s normal schedule, personality, energy level, and comfort. Safety is always a priority in our home. I take introductions slowly, closely supervise interactions, and can keep boarding dogs separate from my personal dogs when needed. I understand that not every dog is immediately comfortable in a new place, so they’ll be given the time and space they need to settle in. I also have experience with dog training and enjoy providing dogs with structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement during their stay. Feel free to message me about your dog’s training needs and the individualized options that may be available! I know leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your dog receives thoughtful, personalized care and is treated like one of our own.
“Communication from the beginning has been fantastic! I was looking for a daycare weeks before I actually needed it because of a relocation and Rachelle and Christopher answered every question and addressed every concern. I have a challenging dog and she’s only ever been in one daycare in her life. She and her sister had an amazing time during their first visit. Driving from Greensboro is totally worth it!”
“This was my first experience with Rover.com for daycare for my dog, Rudy and it went great. He seemed to do well with Rebecca even with it being a new environment. Rebecca interacted with him very well at the greeting to get his comfort in going with her.”
“Lutisa was very helpful in that I needed a sitter ASAP, and she agreed to take my Myra. I was so appreciative that I didn't have to leave her alone for many hours. She took very good care of her.”
“Loren! Simply amazing for willing to watch my fur baby last minute, sent updates, pics and Kylie for right in with the gang!!! Thank you again we will be seeing you again! Thank you Loren!!!”
About: I have loved all animals since I was a small child. I have over 20+ years experience loving and caring for all types of animals. Nothing makes me happier than being around any type of animal. We live on 5 acres for your animal to enjoy! They will have the best time here. I can watch and take care of other animals besides dogs, so just let me know what you need. No need to worry about your schedule because I’m available pretty much anytime and will work with you! I can come to your home or you can come to mine. I definitely understand all animals have different needs and wants! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to love your pet! Lisa
About: What sets me apart isn’t just my certifications or years of experience. It’s my commitment to creating customized training plans that teach both the dog and the handler. Every dog learns differently and every owner deserves to understand why their dog behaves the way it does. My goal is to build lasting communication, confidence and reliability that extends far beyond our training sessions, whether I’m working with a family pet, a behavior case, or a future service dog. Because I work with dogs daily in my own home or on location it fits right into what we do here. Board and trains also come into play as we offer a family environment over kennels and runs. Our pets are part of our family and believe that they deserve the world and as much unconditional love just as they show us, no matter our faults are. ALL DOGS WHO BOARD WITH US MUST HAVE UP TO DATE VACCINES INCLUDING KENNEL COUGH - no exceptions.
About: Hello! My name is Katrina, I am an elementary school counselor currently saving up to buy a home! I have my own dog, Milo, a 4-year old lab mix but I have always loved dogs and have experience volunteering at service dog training facilities, shelters, and I have fostered dogs, as well! I have done dog walking and petsitting for multiple years now and have experience working with all types of dogs, small or large, reactive or non-reactive, all energy levels, and I love them all :) I will update you as much as you want on your pet when I am with him or her, I know it can be stressful to be away from them but I promise they are in good hands if they are with me! I currently work full-time so I am available after 4pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends! I am more than happy to work with your schedule. I have a large, fenced-in backyard and my own dog that loves to spend time outside. Please let me know whether your dog is more of an indoor/outdoor dog and how I can adjust the environment to fit his/her needs.
About: I recently relocated from Greenville, South Carolina, to the Winston Salem area. While I'm new to the area, I'm not new to pet care! I've been a lifelong dog owner and have over five years of experience caring for dogs. I'm excited to start building new relationships with pet parents here in Winston Salem. I'm a registered nurse, so providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care comes naturally to me. My career has taught me to stay calm under pressure, pay close attention to detail, and follow routines and special instructions carefully-all qualities that also make me an excellent pet sitter. Whether your pet needs medication, has a specific routine, or simply loves extra attention, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels-from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to build trust so they feel comfortable, loved, and secure while you're away. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, or plenty of cuddles, my goal is to make your pet feel as happy and relaxed as possible. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life! As a nurse, I work only 3 days a week, which means I’m home the majority of the week with plenty of time and energy to care for pets. On my days off, I plan my routine around feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddle sessions. Even on the days I’m working, my husband, who has just as much experience with dogs as I do, takes over to ensure pets are safe, happy, and cared for. We truly enjoy having dogs around and treat every one like our own! In my home, pets are treated like part of the family! We have a fully fenced backyard in a quiet, safe neighborhood, perfect for pups to run, play, and get plenty of fresh air. Inside, there’s lots of space for lounging and relaxing, and I always make sure pets are comfortable, well-fed, and getting plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, mealtime, or just some cozy cuddles, I follow each pet’s routine closely to make sure they feel right at home.
About: Hi! We’re Jana and Kendric, a reliable pet care team with a shared love for animals. Having two sitters means your pets receive extra attention, supervision, and care while you’re away. We both have experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets who need a calmer, more attentive routine. We’re comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, litter box care, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. We understand that every pet is different, so we take time to learn their habits, preferences, and personality. Whether your dog needs plenty of exercise or your cat prefers quiet companionship, we adapt our care to what makes them happiest. We also have experience following detailed care instructions and can administer oral medications if needed. Safety and communication are very important to us, so we always make sure your pets are supervised, secure, and well cared for at all times. While you’re away, we provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and in good hands. Our goal is to make your pets feel loved and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind. We treat every pet like they’re part of our own family and look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! 🐾🐶🐱 We (Jana and Kendric) work opposite schedules, which allows us to provide consistent care and supervision for your pets. Because of this, someone is home with your pet most of the time, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. We’re able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins. Having two caregivers also means greater flexibility if your pet has specific needs or requires extra attention. Our goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and never left alone for long periods, while maintaining the routine they’re used to at home. 🐾🐶🐱 When caring for pets in our home or in a client’s home, we focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. We follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, medications, and any special needs their pet may have. For dogs, we provide regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and exercised. For cats, we make sure litter boxes are kept clean, feeding routines are maintained, and they receive playtime and affection while still respecting their space. We always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication. We keep environments secure, monitor pets closely, and send regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. Our goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved. 🐾🐶🐱
“Christina is phenomenal! I had never used Rover services before, so she answered all the questions that I had. I reached out to her kinda late in the evening & she still was able to accommodate us for the next morning. She sent pictures & messages throughout the day to let me know how things were going. I highly recommend her & we will definitely be using her again in the near future. 🥰”
“So grateful for Tara! She was very accommodating and patient with my many questions. Once you meet Tara and her family you can tell they are animal lovers. Autzen was well cared for the entire time. Tara's home is a perfect space for running and relaxing. We will definitely be returning!!”
About: I have over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. I grew up on a working ranch, which gave me the opportunity to care for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, ferrets, chickens, goats, sheep, donkeys, and horses.etc. That background taught me how to confidently handle animals with a variety of needs, personalities, and energy levels. I have had all breeds of dogs growing up, but currently, at home, I have two large dogs — a Doberman, a Cane Corso, and a boxer/pocket bully mix — so I’m no stranger to strong breeds, high energy, or big personalities. I understand how to manage powerful dogs calmly and safely. I also have three cats. What sets me apart is my wide-ranging animal experience, my confidence with large and exotic pets, and my professional training. I’m certified in pet CPR and first aid, and I take pride in providing reliable, attentive care while following your instructions closely. Whether you’re looking for someone to care for your dogs, exotic pets, or farm animals, I’m here to offer safe, compassionate, and knowledgeable care. I am currently switched my schedule where I work a lot less and pick what days I want to work, so I can have more time on my off days doing what I love best, caring and loving on animals. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the animals and the home with the utmost respect. I follow all care instructions carefully and stick to the pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. JUST A HEADS UP! I do require all boarding dogs to come with a crate, for comfort and safety! I understand how important it is to create a safe, stress-free, and trustworthy environment. I’m calm, reliable, and always make sure pets feel seen, heard, and cared for. Whether it’s feeding, walking, litter box cleaning, administering medications, or just providing company, I handle every task with patience and care. I’m also certified in pet CPR and first aid, which gives added peace of mind in case of an emergency. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pets are safe and happy while you’re gone.

I’m especially available in the afternoons, evenings, and on days when I don’t have classes, and I’m happy to work with each owner to find a schedule that works best for their pet’s needs. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable and follow their normal routine. I can provide feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and other care based on each pet’s individual needs. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own.

About: I’ve had animals my whole life. From dogs, cats, horses and cows. I’ve also worked in a Vet’s office as a receptionist. I enjoy taking walks with my dog, Layla. Animals are my true passion and I treat every one of them as if they were my own. I wake up in the morning and my dog, Layla, and I head out for our morning walk. We typically walk about a mile a day. I do a little door dashing at lunch time but I would love to help someone else out with their daily pet care needs. I am currently unable to care for pets in my home but I would treat your pets and your home with the upmost respect. I am reliable and very dependable. Being on time is very important to me.

I am a runner so can give your dog extra exercise, if requested. I have a wagon for elderly or injured dogs so they can get some fresh air. I'm reliable, responsible and professional. This is my full time job. I can give my full attention to your pet. Whenever your pet needs me, I can be there for them.

About: I recently relocated from Greenville, South Carolina, to the Winston Salem area. While I'm new to the area, I'm not new to pet care! I've been a lifelong dog owner and have over five years of experience caring for dogs. I'm excited to start building new relationships with pet parents here in Winston Salem. I'm a registered nurse, so providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care comes naturally to me. My career has taught me to stay calm under pressure, pay close attention to detail, and follow routines and special instructions carefully-all qualities that also make me an excellent pet sitter. Whether your pet needs medication, has a specific routine, or simply loves extra attention, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels-from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to build trust so they feel comfortable, loved, and secure while you're away. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, or plenty of cuddles, my goal is to make your pet feel as happy and relaxed as possible. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life! As a nurse, I work only 3 days a week, which means I’m home the majority of the week with plenty of time and energy to care for pets. On my days off, I plan my routine around feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddle sessions. Even on the days I’m working, my husband, who has just as much experience with dogs as I do, takes over to ensure pets are safe, happy, and cared for. We truly enjoy having dogs around and treat every one like our own! In my home, pets are treated like part of the family! We have a fully fenced backyard in a quiet, safe neighborhood, perfect for pups to run, play, and get plenty of fresh air. Inside, there’s lots of space for lounging and relaxing, and I always make sure pets are comfortable, well-fed, and getting plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, mealtime, or just some cozy cuddles, I follow each pet’s routine closely to make sure they feel right at home.

“This sitter was amazing I gave her 5 stars. She brushed my dog and my dog came back so happy and smelling so good! My dog had so much fun at their place. She responded quickly and also sent me pictures of my dog Pearl. Our flight got canceled and she let me rebook Pearl and just helped resolve so many worries. What a great sitter!! Wow my family was impressed. :) Thanks so much again!! Would definitely recommend!”
“Jasmin is a great pet sitter. We went on a cruise vacation and she took care of our two doodles while we were away. She did a great job and she sent me updates throughout the week of how the dogs were doing. If you need a pet sitter I would highly recommend Jasmin.”
“Shanna was excellent! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and works with them regularly which is a plus! She is an expert in dealing with dogs of all kinds and different temperaments. she takes them on long walks in the beautiful forest where she lives and has a beautiful home that is viable for dogs. She was very detailed in her daily reports of Remi and I was comforted to know that she was with somebody who knows what they are doing!!”
“Kylo really enjoyed his time and seemed to just fit right in at Stephanie&Matthews home. it was such an easy drop off and pick up:) also appreciated the update pictures on all the days we were gone.”
“Carrie is a wonderful dog sitter, she was happy to schedule a meet and great to make sure our dogs were compatible with hers and she was very accommodating with our anxious rescues needs. She sends updates and plenty of photos while they are there. Highly recommend Carrie and we will definitely use her in the future if we need someone to watch our boys!”
“Christopher spent a lot of time giving my dog, Lucy, personal attention. She is a 14 year old who is very fussy when taking her food and many meds. He kept in contact with us and she looked very happy once he spoiled her. I would highly recommend Christopher.”
“Holly was an amazing host. Our 10 month old doodle was well cared for and happy. Holly shared daily updates and was always available whenever I texted. I really appreciate Holly's whole family for taking such great care of Gus.”
“Im so happy I was able to find Nelcy last minute to watch my dog Ally. The meet and greet was perfect and Ally went right into play mode. I knew that she was going to be in good hands and really enjoy someone taking care of my dog like they're part of the family. Loved the updates and pictures as well. 10/10 recommend!!”
“Our dog Diggs just enjoys being with Ashley & hr family. She is often very accommodating and helpful to urgent needs and requests. Practically our dog’s 2nd family”
“Talia did an amazing job caring for Dino. She sent photos and descriptions of their time together, making him part of her family. Dog parks, long walk and playtime with her family’s pet were just part of their routine. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. And he smelled great when I picked him up! She bathed him (which is no easy task.)”
“Rachelle handled our nervous hound well, understanding he needed a few minutes to evaluate the situation. Meet up before the stay was helpful so our dog could get to know theirs and them.”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Jane! She took exceptional care of Kylie, kept in touch with us throughout Kylie's stay by sending pictures and videos AND she even celebrated Kylie's birthday with special treats in our absence. Jane, you are a Godsend! We hope you allow Kylie to stay with you again!”
“We found the perfect person to watch our Gracie. MARILBEL was accommodating, sweet, and a natural dog lover. Along with her dog, Molly, Maribel gave Gracie a wonderful few days. We had tried our vet's kennel and even the "luxury" pet kennels, but our dog is a "people" dog, and was definitely traumatized by those places, and it took days for her to get back to our normal dog. Putting my dog in a cage for days is NOT what we wanted. But Maribel was our answer. She loved on Gracie, played with her, texted us with pictures, and when we picked her up, she was not traumatized. She was her happy, normal dog self. We are grateful for Maribel and highly recommend her.”
“Dessie took great care of our dogs. She took them to the dog park and sent us updates daily. She also gave us a nice bag of treats, doggie bags, and a nice letter! I could tell my dogs were super happy with their stay and well taken care of”
About: I’ve worked in vet med for 4 years and can promptly handle any type of emergency. I am comfortable medicating dogs and cats of all ages, and I can perform CPR if necessary. I have also worked at doggy daycares taking care of 100+ animals at a time. I have been pet sitting since I was in high school, and I care for each animal as my own! I am trustworthy, reliable, and very communicative with pet parents. My schedule is completely open right now! I am available to pet sit weekdays or weekends. I can do same-day bookings, but I would prefer at least one day’s notice to stay overnight. I have a fully fenced in backyard. I have one senior husky, one middle-aged mutt, and one young cat in my own home. They are all healthy and on heartworm/flea/tick prevention. They are well socialized and get along with other dogs really well. I am happy to take your pet on walks if that is what they need to get their energy out as well!

She kept me informed all week and she was very quick in responding if I had a question. Definitely recommend. Thank you so much Beth. Woody will be back.”
“Paisley was great! Very communicative and easy to deal with. Gave us great updates while we were away and made coordinating pickup and drop off very easy. Definitely will hire her again!”
