“Shelly’s the absolute best - my dogs adore her and love getting to stay with her, even my anxious needy dog. She sends wonderful pics and videos and really treats them so well”
“John did a great job with our pup. He was great about sending updates and pictures each day. Quick and easy communication. There is plenty of indoor and fenced outdoor space. We will use John again when we need someone near the OBX.”
“Can’t say enough great things about the care that James C. & wife provided to our elderly dog while we were on vacation. They were willing to take Apollo at the last minute when our previous boarding reservations fell through. Our dog had recently experienced a spider bite with subsequent need for wound care & medication. Couldn’t have asked for better care due to their knowledge & experience. They provided updates & readily responding when we had questions. Would highly recommend!”
“Courtney is AMAZING! We have 2 very high energy dogs and I was very hesitant to leave them with anyone; Courtney kept us very updated and treated our babies like her own! We will be using her whenever we go out of town!! :)”
“Kristin, James, & Hannah were amazing! They took such great care of Theo and sent me pictures and updates to let me know how he was doing. They were incredibly kind to both Theo and I. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands.”
“I can't say enough good things about Melody and Matthew as dog sitters! This was Chloe's second time being away from us, and we were a bit nervous, but they put us at ease right away. Throughout the 8 days, Melody sent regular updates that showed Chloe making friends with other dogs and bonding with their kids. It was clear she was comfortable, happy, and getting all the attention she needed. I felt completely confident that Chloe was in great hands, and it made our trip that much more enjoyable. Highly recommend Melody and Matthew!”
“OMG! Michael and his wife are awesome! They kept my 14 year old Pitbull and loved every piece of him. They are a very loving couple and Im pretty sure I will use them again to sit for us. Awesome caregivers and I highly recommend them.”
“It was Bandits 1st time away from us. Megan and her husband were very welcoming. They took great care of him. She very knowledgeable and loves all animals. If you need a sitter, look no further than Megan.”
“Armonee communicated regularly and accommodated our many many many requests. I feared I was asking too much in a lot of ways but she really put my mind at ease. I can tell my old puppy loved spending time with her and her family and was well loved! Thank you for your care with my fur baby!”
“Carolyn is absolutely phenomenal! Her whole family was absolutely great with my Cane Corso who is 125pds!! Carolyn is very accommodating when I needed to extend a day! She sends updates daily and she treated my Togue as if she was her own!! I’m glad we found this family!!”
“Just wow! Nathan took such great care of our Furbabies we’re incredibly grateful to have found them and will continue to use them in the future. He kept us updated with daily pictures, they had plenty of play time with other pups and I was confident my babies were in good hands.”
“We dropped off our dog, Alfie, on our way to the outerbanks as our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs and we are so glad we booked with Kristin. Alfie had so much fun playing at their home and Kristin made sure to keep us updated with photos throughout the entire trip.”
“Amanda loved on my two girls and they got along great with her pup! She sent some photos and updates and was flexible with our changing schedule. Her prices are reasonable, and you can tell she loves animals!”
About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since i was a baby! They have always been my bestfriend! I currently have 1 dog (a golden retriever) and 2 cats. And I’ve house sat for many many fiends for long periods of time. In my eyes i don’t see them as just animals but another member to the family. And that’s how i would treat your fur babies! You should feel comfortable leaving your fur babies in the hands of someone else when life becomes busy or you just need to get away. and i promise I will give your babies all the love and attention they deserve! I work weekdays but i get off early almost everyday with very flexible hours and I’m off every weekend. My work schedule is pretty flexible. I have loads of free time! I have a fenced in yards. My dog is an inside dog (the house belongs to her lol) i have 2 cats that wants to sit on everyone lap. My dog has full access to the house when I’m home and only the downstairs when I’m gone. The cats roam the house as they please but they love to be by my side more than anything! My dog spends so much time outside playing and gets a long walk every day!
“OMG!!!! By far THE BEST EXPERIENCE I could ask for. Loved the transparency from the beginning! My Harmonie had the BEST time and I loved the pic mail received during her stay. Definitely will rebook when in town!!!!”
About: I am a mom to 4 high-energy medium/large breed dogs. I am no stranger to cleaning up accidents, administering medications, handling pets with reactivity, and fulfilling exercise such as playing fetch, tug, flirt pole, long walks, brain stimulation (keeping up with training/commands) or simply snuggling if your baby is low activity. I have been a self-employed residential cleaner for over 8 years and create my own schedule allowing me the flexibility to care for your pets and mine! I am so grateful for all my clients who trust me to help take care of their home and I am hoping to build trust with pet parents as I would love to transition into pet care full time as it has always been what I am most passionate about. While I do have four dogs of my own, I am able to keep your dogs separate from mine at all times if requested and or necessary when boarding. I built my dogs their own apartment behind our house fully equipped with heat, ac, a bed, and doggie door leading to a fenced in area so your dog(s) does not have to be dog friendly and we are also child free so your dog can be the only baby in our home the duration of their stay! But if you would like for your dog(s) to have a playdate and a doggie daycare style stay that can be arranged as well!
“Rachel is FANTASTIC and truly loved my pup like it was one of her own. I know my pup had an absolute blast when she stayed the night. She sent me plenty of pictures and videos and kept me updated during her stay :) definitely will use her again when I need to!”

“Such a wonderful sitter who cares about animals! She makes time to play with them and give them some attention. She has made friends with our cat who is slow to warm to new people. Would recommend to anyone looking for a caring sitter. She's great!”
“Our cat was well taken care of. Carolyn came on the days scheduled and gave fresh food, water and clean the litter box. Our cat was fine when we returned home. Carolyn did a great 3!”
About: Spent my entire life around various types of pets (Cats, Dogs, Reptiles) to include a few exotic animals. I have additionally trained all of my own pets through the years through time and repetition. I love animals and treat them as I would any human. They are after all mans best friend (Doesn't just apply to dogs). I am currently Active Duty Military, however I am available most weekends as well as early morning time frames and later afternoon/evenings. Talk to me about what your needs are and more than likely I can accommodate. I have a decent sized yard with 4 friendly and well trained dogs of my own, if your dog were to be at my house. If Not I have the option to bring one of my furry friends for a play date during a check in or whatever may be required. My dogs range from senior to Junior age group (2 years to 11). Communication is key, you tell me what you need or would like to see and I do what I can to accommodate. Quality care for our friends is what I aim to provide.
About: I have experience working with animals of all breeds/species. I used to work for a boarding/daycare/grooming facility that was also connected to a vets office. I’m familiar with farm animals, dogs, cats, most small pets, and reptiles. I had my own horse for 17 years. Currently I have two German Shepherds who are both 4 years old- so I’m very familiar with working breeds! *I have experience with administering medications and animal first aid* I’m currently a stay at home mom and have full availability. More than likely my son will be with me for drop in visits- but for house sitting, arrangements can be made if necessary! With my two being a working breed we go on a lot of walks, and play a lot of fetch. But they also know how to be couch potatoes! Either way I can follow the lifestyle your pet is used to whether it be cuddles and lounging or going outside to play. I’m all about communication so pictures and daily check ins are something I like to provide!
About: Hey, my name is Janna Reeves. I am located in Belvidere, NC. Trying to descirbe my passion and love for animals is unexplainable. Just look at how many animals I have! I got into Rover to build a customer base for when I can open my dream rescue and training facility. I love taking care of animals, no matter their shape or size. I know how important it is to leave your animals in trusting hands now and days. I’m an anxious mess when I leave behind mine. If I can give just the slightest bit of relief to you and your family while you are away from your furbabies, that’s my goal! I listen to instructions and am not aftaid to say my thoughts and questions, if any. I am always willing to accommodate your babies needs. I am willing to help my client and their family as much as I possibly can. Pictures and videos will be provided and you can even ask for more. I like to send updates throughout the day and I will send pictures as well. If any problems arise while they are in my care, you will be contacted immediately. I will treat your animals how I would want mine to be treated by others. I am currently working from home as a stay at home mom. Your pets care and needs will fit in to my schedule as if they were my own. I would care for your pets as if they were mine. I want your furbabies to feel like nothing had changed despite your absence. I strive to make sure they are comfortable and happy!
About: Hi, I’m Macee! I’ve been pet sitting for several years and love caring for animals. I have experience with dogs of all ages and personalities, including senior pets. Whether it’s overnight stays, drop-ins, walks, or medication, I’ll make sure your pets are cared for like my own! I work full-time during the week, but I am available before and after work, on weekends, and for overnight stays. I make pet care a priority and always ensure pets stay on their normal routine as much as possible. I believe consistency is important for pets, so I follow each owner’s instructions carefully. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, walks, or bedtime routines, I strive to keep pets comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I treat every home and pet with respect.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and love them all. I have been petless for the last year since we lost our corgi to cancer. We are not ready to get a new dog yet but this service allows me to get my pet fix and help out dogs…and their owners. I currently do not have a real world job so I am open to any kind of schedule. The closer to home the better, though. I have a small fenced yard and live in a quiet dead end neighborhood. I am open to care in my home or yours. I also have a medium sized crate from my corgi if needed and lots of toys and snuggly beds.
About: Hi, I am a licensed vet tech and work at an emergency animal hospital as an emergency vet tech. I have worked in the veterinary medicine field for 4 years now. I have had cats my entire life (young and old). I’ve been know to deal with sweet and grumpy cats with no problems. I know how to safely and correctly give medication. Cats are my spirit animals and I have a deep love for every one of them.
About: Cat sitting is a calm and rewarding experience. When I arrive, I make sure the cat has fresh food, water, and a clean litter box. At first, some cats may be shy and keep their distance, so I give them space and move gently around them. Over time, the cats become more comfortable. Some will come up for attention, while others prefer to relax nearby. I follow their routine and pay attention to their behavior to make sure they are happy and healthy. Cat sitting is about being patient, respectful, and making sure the cat feels safe and cared for while their owner is away.
“Robert was amazing with my two dogs! He kept me updated with photos and took great care of them while I was away. They were happy and relaxed when I got back. Highly recommend him!”
About: Caring for and loving dogs has always been a passion of mine! I have a relaxed and jovial demeanor that they seem to gravitate to. I’ve owned 3 dogs so far of 3 separate weights, so I know how to cater to dogs of different sizes and personalities. I currently live in an apartment with lots of open spaces nearby for playing and walking. I always treat pets (dogs and cats too) in my care as I would my own, which is slightly spoiled but still disciplined. If you give me your trust, I will bring your pup or kitty happier and ready for more playtime! However, I do request that owners with dogs with behavioral issues notify me about them up front so I may work with them closer one-on-one. I'm currently working full-time in the Navy every 4 days, so I can watch pets on my off time. Four days a week on and off. I care for pets by learning their personalities, likes and dislikes, eating preferences, bathroom needs, what motivates them (toys, food, attention) and go from there.
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, growing up with 10 German Shepards has provided me with a lot of experience. I will ensure your dog gets the best care possible! I look forward to taking care of your fur baby! :) My schedule is very flexible and I am currently working part time, so i will have plenty of time to play with your fur baby! I have a fenced in yard and 1 German Shepard to keep your fur baby company. A crate must be provided with food & bowls.
About: For at least the past 3 or 4 years, I have dog sat for a family that goes on vacation for a week during the 4th of July. During that time, I enjoy the time of the pups and we have endless fun. We go on walks and spend time outside running around. After being outside, we go inside for a good snuggle. Recently, my friend found kittens and rescued them after they had been harvested in peanuts. While she goes to work I watch them, feed them, and play with them. As kittens they have to be bottle fed and manually assisted in using the restroom. I am capable of doing both as I have had to tend to those sweet babies. I promise i'll take care of your pet and we'll share lots of fun times!
About: I have worked in and out of the veterinary field since I was 15, so I am well experienced with all types of animals, with varying degrees of care. I am able to give medication if needed, special needs pets and work with any specific dietary needs. I am a stay at home mom with a lot of time on my hands, especially during the weekdays! I can come anytime during the day or night to help ! Feel free to reach out about any questions or scheduling needs! If you have a fenced yard, I am happy to play fetch, run around and play with your pups. I’m happy to take them on walks, dog parks, and adventures. I am very flexible and willing to do whatever is most helpful and causes the least amount of stress for you and your fur babies.

“Kristin was absolutely the best! Goose got so excited each day I dropped him off. Kristin was flexible with my changing work schedule and so loving towards my sweet boy. Will definitely be using her to care for my pup again.”
About: I am a true animal lover. I have a level of empathy for pets that most people think is crazy. Your pet is part of your family and will be part of mine as well. I have a lot of love to give. I am more then happy to accept a million phone calls and texts because I know top care is important. I am patient and understanding and take the time to help with house breaking and learn new tricks. I use to breed Siberian huskies. That is one of the most energetic and mischevious breeds out there. I help with a local rescue in rehoming and donations. I am also actively involved with helping take strays to local vets and following up with owners. My family consists of me, my husband and our five children. There is always someone to give love and attention. We keep our own pets somewhat on a schedule and we play a lot in our back yard. I have a large fenced in yard and three very active dogs who enjoy to play. I also have 5 indoor cats. I can easily crate if needed.
“The best doggie day camp available. Julie, her boys, the dogs, cats, etc. took the best care of my 2 month old Aussie. Even working on obedience and crate training. Highly recommend.”
“Michael and his wife took such great care of our puppy and made me feel such at ease being away! He sent updates throughout the day and the pictures he took of her were amazing! Highly recommended, he is now my go-to person!”
About: Hello there! My name is Jessica & I have grown up with pets my whole life and have had experience with several other species which has included dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, and even fish. I'm even a fan of reptiles! I believe pets play a very important role in their human pals life and teach us so much about life and the kind of love that I have for my dog has taught me just that! Your pet(s) will find pals with my family & our dog Orie. Know that if you choose me to walk or watch your pet(s), they will be treated like a family member. Look forward to meeting your pet(s) and hopefully gain a new friendship through a mutual love for our animals.
“Rhonda was warm and friendly! It seems that Dakota had a very interesting visit with her. This was the first time we had him to a sitter. He came home exhausted and happy!!”
About: As a stay at home and home school mom there is usually always someone home to love and play with our (your) animals. We have two daughters (17 & 15) and one son (10). *I’ve recently updated this profile to include the following: As an owner to two small dogs myself, I understand the worry and anxiety of leaving my small, fragile, pup, in the care of others who may have larger dogs coming and going where an accident can happen. I don’t like to take chances with one of my own, or one of yours getting hurt. Even by accident. I’ve recently updated my profile to only accept dogs up to a certain pound. This will help with my profile score, for the many dogs I’ve had to turn down. However, if you are a prior client, I will accept your larger dog (they’ve all been wonderful and fine because of my judgement at meet and greet) and in addition any future clients who have a small dog/big dog combo, I will consider a meet and greet to verify we would be a good fit and will make exceptions on a case by case. I will not be sitting for more than one family at a time. I’d like to advertise our service as a small dog oasis. We have tons of toys, treats, dogs beds, and love to offer to spoil and keep your little ones happy and safe. I know the peace and ease of mind I offer will stand out. I send pictures, and/or videos, daily, unless you ask me not to. I will also FaceTime you with your pet, upon request. * We have a 5 year old, 10lb Maltipoo, who acts more like an indoor cat, (sleeps a lot) and follows me everywhere, a 9 month old, 7lb, Malshi (Maltese Shitzu), who is a baby and wants to play with her toys all the time. We also have a 4 year old yellow lab, Sam, who acts like a lab. Aren’t they all full of energy? Sam likes to stay outside and loves his job as a guardian dog to our miniature goats. He comes in for freezing temperatures, over night to sleep, or heat advisories only. He’d rather be outside. All three get along with ALL animals, strays, neighbor’s yorkies’, neighbors dogs, etc. We have two acres of yard with a fenced in area that has a dog house, goat house, tree house, etc. which is where he stays. We are an animal loving family. No young kids that harm or hurt in any way. Your pets are guaranteed a “spoiled rotten” experience for sure. Schedule We are home most of the time. We let the pups run around and play inside. We prefer inside dogs over outside dogs, but will take the dogs outside many, many times to walk, run, and play. Just I inform us of their home habits of how often they like to go out. Safety, trust & environment- I am highly protective over the dogs well being. Safety and emotionally. We use leashes when walking/running your dog and to let them out to use the bathroom. Dogs are fed at separate locations to ensure no jealousy and fights. Not to mention stolen food and a hungry pup. The dogs we sit for sleep in the master bedroom. We sleep with the door shut. This is to ensure we can always have eyes and ears on your pup. No accidents or trouble to get into. They seem to like having the constant company around them, even if we are asleep, they know they’re not alone.

About: Invite me to your home, and I'll hang out with your dogs more than the humans. I even prefer to sit on the floor with your dogs. At my house, dogs are family. They sit on the couches and sleep in my queen size bed. They have the freedom to run the house and the yard. I work from home. I'm always home and enjoy the company of dogs. My dog and I are best friends, so I only leave my house to shop for food and necessities, such as Kevin's homemade dehydrated chicken breast strips (treats)!

“BOOCHI’S FIRST DAY AT DAYCARE 🐶 All I can say is WOW... I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Monti! When it comes to loving on your fur baby & making them feel at home away from home, Monti is an absolute ANGEL!!! When we first met for our meet and greet last week, it was abundantly clear that Monti and her husband truly love and understand dogs. At first, I was hesitant to book my pup, Boochi, for his first day at daycare because he tends to be a bit picky and kinda anxious sometimes, but Monti and her hubby made him feel completely at home right away – it was like Boochi was part of their family! ❤️ Yesterday was Boochi’s first day at daycare, and he was initially a little nervous when I dropped him off… he wasn't sure whether to follow me or stay with Monti. Fortunately, Monti is a PRO with dogs, and she was SO on top of his care plan – you can tell that she honestly loves and cares about the dogs she watches. From bringing out an entire room full of toys to streaming Boochi's fave comfort cartoon, Monti went MUCH further than the extra mile to make sure that he was comfortable and content… and did I mention how well-fed Boochi was? Not only did she make him his fave lunch, but she even sent him home with cheerios and some leftover chicken with broth! Throughout the day, Monti sent me adorable photos and videos, as well as regular updates with cute little stories about Boochi’s first day at daycare – which really put my mind at ease while I was away… it was clear that Boochi was bonding with Monti, having an awesome time, and getting LOTS of love, attention, and “sugars” (aka kisses). Later, when I arrived for pick-up, Boochi almost didn’t want to leave… he was happy, totally relaxed, and sorta tired from his fun, eventful day – which is always a good sign! In fact, Boochi barely ran over to me because he had become SO comfortable with Monti! Ultimately, Boochi’s first day at daycare couldn’t have gone better! I’m SO glad we found Monti and her husband, and we will definitely be booking again ASAP… it’s such a relief to know that we’ve finally found someone that we can trust with our baby boy! For anyone seeking a warm, caring, professional, and reliable sitter who goes above and beyond to treat your fur baby like family, I HIGHLY recommend booking with Monti… and don’t just walk – RUN!!! 🐾”
About: Your baby will feel right at home with our spacious 1 acre yard. Our hardwood floors make messes easy to clean up, and we always have a basket of toys for every playful pup to enjoy! Our open floor plan allows for your pup to run around and play fetch inside and out. I'm an animal lover, and am equally biased for playful pups as I am lap dogs. Im comfortable administering medication as animals need, soothing pets that have anxiety and specialize in belly rubs and back scratches to help your baby feel confident and safe in their home away from home. I do work full time, but on those days my husband is home to love on the babies so they will never be lonely. We make ourselves available for the friends that come stay with us, and ensure they never feel left out or bored! I keep your babies indoors aside from potty breaks and walks/play time for dogs. I have two dogs and 1 cat who are very friendly and will keep your pet entertained! If a crate is typically where they sleep, we can accommodate!

About: I grew up with lots of animals and have plenty of experience. I have experience with senior animals. I have some experience in dog training as I trained my Labrador Retriever as a puppy in doggie obedience school. My Lab is now currently a senior doggie. We breed and raise pedigreed Mini Rex, and pedigreed Netherland Dwarf bunnies for showing and pets. My husband also has experience working with a vet some years ago, as well as experience in dog breeding. So I have even more experience as backup if need be. I homeschool a preteen and teenager. I'll be able to look after your pet so he or she will not have to stay crated all alone at home. Can provide frequent potty breaks for your pets. I like to get to know your pets typical routine so I can replicate that comfort for them 🙂

I care for pets by learning their personalities, likes and dislikes, eating preferences, bathroom needs, what motivates them (toys, food, attention) and go from there.
About: For over 10 years, we've cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities — each one holding a special place in our heart. Whether it’s mealtime, playtime, bath time, potty training, or giving medications, We make sure every tail keeps wagging and every pup feels safe, loved, and at home. With a flexible work-from-home schedule, I’m here to give your dog plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I’m usually only out briefly in the mornings for school drop-off and in the evenings for kids’ sports — My husband is home during the evening time to keep your pup company. It’s a team effort to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved Our 1,650 sq. ft. home and fenced-in yard offer plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and relax. We’re happy to adapt our home to meet your dog’s unique needs during their stay, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved — just like part of the family. For added peace of mind, we have security cameras outside and cameras inside our home, so even if we’re away for a short time, we’re still keeping an eye on things to ensure everyone’s safety
About: What makes me different is the level of care, patience, and versatility I bring to every animal I look after. I’m not just here to cover the basics—I focus on making sure each animal feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. I’m experienced with a wide range of animals, from dogs and cats to large and farm animals like horses, goats, and chickens. This means I’m comfortable handling different routines, environments, and responsibilities with confidence. I also have a strong understanding of pets who need extra support, including seniors and those with anxiety. I take a calm, gentle approach, move at their pace, and prioritize building trust so they feel secure while you’re away. I pay close attention to small details—changes in behavior, appetite, or mood—so nothing gets overlooked. Combined with reliable communication and consistent updates, you can feel confident your animals are in capable, caring hands. Animals have been a constant part of my life, and caring for them is something I take seriously and genuinely enjoy. I provide reliable, attentive pet sitting for families who want their pets to feel safe, comfortable and loved while away. Whether it is daily walks, playtime, medication, or simply keeping them company, I focus on creating a calm, lovable and predictable routine that helps them feel secure. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, cats with all different personalities, small and large animals who need gentle, constant care. I pay close attention to behavior changes, eating habits, and comfort levels so you always know how your pet is doing. Communication matters a great deal, so I send updates, photos, and notes to keep you connected. My goal is simple, to treat your pet like they are my own and make those time away as stress-free as possible! I provide loving, reliable sitting, giving your pet a safe, calm, and comfortable place to stay while you’re away. I treat them as part of my own pets. Keeping routines consistent and their environment peaceful.

About: Hi, I am a licensed vet tech and work at an emergency animal hospital as an emergency vet tech. I have worked in the veterinary medicine field for 4 years now.

I know how to handle crazy puppies and couch potato seniors. I love all types of dogs equally and have a deep passion of working with them. I work full time at an urgent care animal hospital throughout the week but during the weekends I am completely free for all of your babies! I would not be able to have other animals at my house as I have elderly/grumpy animals. I am more than willing to stop by your house to care for animals!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and love them all. I have been petless for the last year since we lost our corgi to cancer. We are not ready to get a new dog yet but this service allows me to get my pet fix and help out dogs…and their owners. I currently do not have a real world job so I am open to any kind of schedule. The closer to home the better, though. I have a small fenced yard and live in a quiet dead end neighborhood. I am open to care in my home or yours. I also have a medium sized crate from my corgi if needed and lots of toys and snuggly beds.

About: I recently moved back to Virginia after living in Upstate New York for a handful of years. In addition to my work experience, I also attended a veterinary assistant class which covered everything from small animals to large. I have always had multiple dogs and cats growing up and have worked on farms caring for horses, dogs and chickens since 2013. I currently work at a local Animal Clinic as a veterinary assistant full time so my schedule will work around my full time job. I do receive an hour lunch most days I am scheduled therefore, if you live close to Main Street in Suffolk I will gladly stop by for a potty break during my lunch on days that I work a long shift. I do require meet and greets before the first initial drop in, sitting or walk so I am able to meet you and your pet. I would like to know: •Your pets allergies •Your pets normal routine to keep it as normal as possible •Do they get along with other dogs or cats •Their habits (good or naughty if they have any) •Any training routine that should be kept consistent •Dietary needs Thank you for taking your time to look into my services! My schedule can be rotating, in order to align care appropriately. I appreciate detailed discussions in order to make sure your pets needs are met! I attempt to keep the environment and routine as similar to when the pet parents are home. Understanding that limitations may come, these limitations are expected to be addressed and agreed upon prior to official booking.
About: I have worked in and out of the veterinary field since I was 15, so I am well experienced with all types of animals, with varying degrees of care.

About: Hey there! I'm a proud military member and animal shelter volunteer with 10+ years of experience caring for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even the little critters! From playful puppies to sweet seniors, I’ve got the skills to handle it all. Need meds given or special diets followed? No problem! I’m all about keeping your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free. I’m big on communication, so you’ll always know how your fur-babies are doing. With me, it’s not just pet sitting—it’s personalized, loving care that gives you total peace of mind. Let’s make sure your pets have a tail-wagging good time while you’re away! Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I dedicate specific times for walks, feedings, playtime, and any special needs such as administering medications or training sessions. I schedule my work and personal activities around my pet care responsibilities, ensuring that each pet receives consistent and attentive care. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate various needs, whether it's daily visits, overnight stays, or extended care. This dedication ensures that every pet in my care feels loved, safe, and well-attended to throughout the week. In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment for pets by providing a designated area with comfortable bedding, toys, and plenty of space to roam. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walking, and playtime, ensuring each pet feels at home. I also have a secure backyard for supervised outdoor activities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain the pet’s usual routine. I ensure their environment is clean, provide fresh food and water, and engage in regular play and exercise. I also send daily updates and photos to keep owners informed about their pet’s well-being. My goal is to provide personalized, attentive care that meets each pet’s specific needs, whether at my home or theirs.
About: I've been an animal lover all of my life. I had cats for most of my childhood and early adulthood. They were my best buddies who cuddled and slept with me, as well as posed for drawings and paintings. About 18 years ago I adopted a pit mix, named Humble. He was the most gentle giant you could ever meet. He accompanied me on camping and hiking trips in Maine. He passed away a few years ago. Now I'm the lucky mom of a rescue dog named Chance. He is an 8 year old undetermined breed. He may be a Doxie mixed with Papillion. I rescued him from the streets of China. I was working as an ESL teacher in Shenzhen,China at the time. He is one of my best friends and I spoil him with lots of love, treats and walks. I am a certified yoga teacher, artist and pet care provider. I started out pet sitting as a side business to earn some extra money, but it has become so much more than that. It is such a rewarding job and a great honor to care for so many beautiful animals! I will take great care of your fur babies and your home. You can have peace of mind with me as your pet sitter. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I am usually available most week days and weekends ( except the ones marked off my calendar), for house sitting and drop in visits. I can walk your dogs and keep the house and yard picked up during my stays. I will spoil your pets with lots of love and attention Safety is always my first priority. I never leave pets unattended outside, make sure harnesses and collars are secure during walks, and never feed them anything but their food. I will give them your treats if you give me permission. I also make sure the floors and rugs if the home are kept clean and that their is nothing dangerous around that they could eat .. I am Extra careful!
About: I am 27 years old and a recent graduate at Johnson and Wales University. I have been taking care of my dog India for the past 6 years I even trained her on my own. I even took her to college with me for 4 years. I also took care of a Scottish terrier when we had her when I was in high school. I currently help take care of and train my grandparents schnauzers. I have taken my dog on many walks and bath her weekly. I have experience taking care of a cat as well as horses! I am adept at dealing with dogs with separation anxiety, PTSD, and big personalities. I currently work full time and my schedule varies based on the week and holidays. I typically have off Tuesday, Sundays so I will be available all day those days. I am also usually off by 3 at work. I have a fenced in backyard but due to my dog India being so small we typically keep her on a leash when taking her outside. For my 2 lab puppies they just wander the backyard. I do request a meet and greet for most bookings for safety reasons for new clients. At your home I will ensure all instructions are followed based on the needs of your pets!

“Can’t say enough great things about the care that James C. & wife provided to our elderly dog while we were on vacation. They were willing to take Apollo at the last minute when our previous boarding reservations fell through. Our dog had recently experienced a spider bite with subsequent need for wound care & medication. Couldn’t have asked for better care due to their knowledge & experience. They provided updates & readily responding when we had questions. Would highly recommend!”

“I can't say enough good things about Melody and Matthew as dog sitters! This was Chloe's second time being away from us, and we were a bit nervous, but they put us at ease right away. Throughout the 8 days, Melody sent regular updates that showed Chloe making friends with other dogs and bonding with their kids. It was clear she was comfortable, happy, and getting all the attention she needed. I felt completely confident that Chloe was in great hands, and it made our trip that much more enjoyable. Highly recommend Melody and Matthew!”

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since i was a baby! They have always been my bestfriend! I currently have 1 dog (a golden retriever) and 2 cats. And I’ve house sat for many many fiends for long periods of time. In my eyes i don’t see them as just animals but another member to the family. And that’s how i would treat your fur babies! You should feel comfortable leaving your fur babies in the hands of someone else when life becomes busy or you just need to get away. and i promise I will give your babies all the love and attention they deserve! I work weekdays but i get off early almost everyday with very flexible hours and I’m off every weekend. My work schedule is pretty flexible. I have loads of free time! I have a fenced in yards. My dog is an inside dog (the house belongs to her lol) i have 2 cats that wants to sit on everyone lap. My dog has full access to the house when I’m home and only the downstairs when I’m gone. The cats roam the house as they please but they love to be by my side more than anything! My dog spends so much time outside playing and gets a long walk every day!
“OMG!!!! By far THE BEST EXPERIENCE I could ask for. Loved the transparency from the beginning! My Harmonie had the BEST time and I loved the pic mail received during her stay. Definitely will rebook when in town!!!!”
About: I am a mom to 4 high-energy medium/large breed dogs. I am no stranger to cleaning up accidents, administering medications, handling pets with reactivity, and fulfilling exercise such as playing fetch, tug, flirt pole, long walks, brain stimulation (keeping up with training/commands) or simply snuggling if your baby is low activity. I have been a self-employed residential cleaner for over 8 years and create my own schedule allowing me the flexibility to care for your pets and mine! I am so grateful for all my clients who trust me to help take care of their home and I am hoping to build trust with pet parents as I would love to transition into pet care full time as it has always been what I am most passionate about. While I do have four dogs of my own, I am able to keep your dogs separate from mine at all times if requested and or necessary when boarding. I built my dogs their own apartment behind our house fully equipped with heat, ac, a bed, and doggie door leading to a fenced in area so your dog(s) does not have to be dog friendly and we are also child free so your dog can be the only baby in our home the duration of their stay! But if you would like for your dog(s) to have a playdate and a doggie daycare style stay that can be arranged as well!
“Rachel is FANTASTIC and truly loved my pup like it was one of her own. I know my pup had an absolute blast when she stayed the night. She sent me plenty of pictures and videos and kept me updated during her stay :) definitely will use her again when I need to!”
“Jane and her family were able to take my request during a last minute change of plans on my part, and made to make Rogue feel at home as soon as she walked in the door. We were all sad when Rogue had to finally leave but they took such good care of her during her stay and I'll definitely be contacting them again if I ever need a sitter 💙”
