Kaylah was very helpful and responsive to all my questions and concerns. I felt very comfortable leaving my older dog with her. She took really good care of him and I know he enjoyed staying with them. I would definitely recommend her and would absolutely use her again :)

My dog stayed with Sue-Ling, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She took such wonderful care of my dog. Kind, patient, and really attentive to her needs. It was clear from the start that Sue-Ling truly loves animals and treats them like her own. There was a small health issue while I was away, but Sue-Ling handled everything calmly and responsibly. She kept me updated right away and made sure my dog was comfortable and safe. I felt completely reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Sue-Ling gave to my dog, and I would absolutely trust her to look after her again anytime. She’s amazing!

We had a last minute business trip and had to quickly find accommodations for our 6 month old puppy. Having never used a Rover we were VERY anxious and scared. We messaged several people and have still not received a response from some, but Andrea responded in less than an hour and was ready to help us out. Trooper is now home and exhausted from a weekend of fun and we were so grateful to her for taking such good care of our baby.

Brooklin took amazing care of my cat, Lylla, while I was away. Lylla is very shy around new people, but Brooklin was incredibly patient and was able to get her to warm up, which says a lot! She went above and beyond to make sure Lylla was comfortable and cared for, even helping encourage her to eat when she wasn’t showing much interest in food. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. Brooklin kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my spoiled girl was in good hands. I could tell she genuinely cared about Lylla’s well-being and treated her like her own. I would absolutely book with Brooklin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.

I am excited to rave about our experience with Christina! My dog, Bentley, loves going to her home for petsitting. Christina has excellent communication and provides the best updates (including pictures and videos). She is well informed of a pet's needs.Even when she takes Bentley for walks, she goes above and beyond. When we pull into her neighborhood, Bentley cannot contain his excitement and eagerness to see her.

I was very pleased with the everyday updates and pictures. I will definitely use her again. She was very accommodating for me. Very nice lady.

About: I’ve had animals since I was a kid and always enjoyed taking care of them! It’s very rewarding for me. In my early 20s I was a dog trainer I’m a stay at home dad. We have a 10 and a 5 year old. I take walks throughout the day and between my wife someone is always home unless we are taking the kids somewhere. If they like the car and the park I can even take them with me! I walk a lot and am outside with my kids throughout the day. My kids love dogs so they will be showered with love and cuddles (if they enjoy that).

Stella took great care of my girls (a Boston terrier and a “Velcro” Dalmatian) for a week. It was a last minute booking and she communicated so promptly and professionally. She even offered a meet and greet which made me feel even more comfortable leaving our fur babies with her. Stella had a great yard for them to play in, and updated us with pictures and videos nearly everyday! I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a sitter that they can trust and feel like their babies were made feel right at home! Thank you Stella!

I do weekly stays for a family in landfall with three doodles, and have lots of experience with all ages, breeds, and needs! I am experienced and comfortable with giving medications to all animals such as pills, oral medications, eye drops, ear drops, etc! I’m currently finishing up at CFCC this year, and own two online businesses. I am very reliable and flexible! I babysit only on Mondays, which leaves my week free. I will follow guidelines, routines, and schedules to ensure your pet feels at home and comfortable with me. I love sending check in photos so you can know what your fur baby is up to!

About: I have been around pets my whole life! I have taken care of each and every pet I’ve had. I have always had either a dog or cat in my house. And each of my family members have had pets that I have been around as well. I also use to volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center, where I cared for injured animals. I have my own mini farm, where I have pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and turkeys! So if you need any of those types of animals cared for I can do that too! I have a very flexible schedule so I basically have the whole day to come take care of any pets! I have plenty of time to come and hang out with your furry family! I have four loving dogs that get outside all day long because I have so much time during the day and a very large fenced in backyard. We go on walks all the time! We can have a pet play date if your pet likes other dogs. If you need your pet needs to crated, I can do that. If they need soothing music put on, I can do that too!

About: I have two dogs and a cat of my own. :) I worked two years at Pet Supermarket, first as a cashier, then as a manager. My responsibilities were to help keep everything tidy, ensure the animals were well cared for at the store, and assist customers with their pet needs. I also grew up in a home with reptiles, cats, dogs, birds and small rodents. I'm currently prepared to work part-time with boarding, dog-sitting, and walking dogs after 12:00 on weekdays, and I'm flexible with weekends. I have two dogs and a cat to help keep your fur baby company. I don't have a fenced-in backyard, but there are places around the community where I like to walk my dogs. We also have dog-proof rooms upstairs where we can separate pets as needed.

About: I've been around well trained and untrained dogs alike for most of my life. I am capable with strong dogs, aggressive dogs, and dogs who just have tons of energy! I am currently doing gig work in the film industry, so in between gigs I have plenty of time to care for our furry friends. I care for other people's pets same as I care for mine at home. Simple basics are essential, but the magic happens when you build a bond and enrich each other's time together.

About: Hi, all! Years of living with and caring for pets and working as a veterinary assistant has led me to be attentive, knowledgeable, and most importantly, so loving to any and all animals. I currently care for a pup, cat and ducks in my life. I intend to care for your pet as if it were my own! I am easy-going, flexible and willing to abide by any reasonable requests in care-taking. This won’t be considered “work” for me. It’s a bonus for the joy of spending time with and caring for animals and helping out pet parents as well :) I hope to meet you and your pet soon! Krista E. As far as my schedule, I am completely open during the daytime. I work evening shifts five days a week, but my schedule changes weekly. For walking: 1-2 walks a day from the hours of 8-3. I can also do night walks on days that I work, outside of the hours of 3-10ish, depending on the day. If I am off, I can walk at any time in the day or evening. I am willing to make multiple visits in a day. For House Drop-Ins: Similar to above, the evening times may vary. For House Sitting: I receive my schedule weekly, so I am available for overnight at least twice a week. However, if consecutive days are needed, I will be available for morning and afternoon care, but will have to leave for work and return afterward at night. Again, this time varies, so it will be either 3-8:30/9ish that I am gone, or 4-10/11ish. I can understand if this is an issue, but am willing to walk during the day, feed, and let out for a potty break as soon as I am able. I do not accept pets in my home because of the other animals already here, but as far as in yours, I am clean, courteous, quiet, respectful, and most importantly, there to keep your pet well-cared for, entertained, and at ease.

Cassie did a great job of keeping us updated on our pets while we were away! She provided a thorough update on their moods, health, and appetites, and took the best pictures! She even took the time to meet them beforehand and ensured we felt comfortable with her. If something looked off in the house, she advised us of that as well. We could tell that our pets were well taken care of and had gotten plenty of play time and attention. Would recommend Cassie as she obviously loves animals and cared for our pets so well!

Kate taking care of our cat allowed us to actually enjoy our nearly weeklong trip. Our cat has some difficult health issues, a finicky diet, and loves attention. We were so grateful for Kate’s updates, where it was so clear our cat was happy, healthy, and very well-taken care of. We’ve had several pet sitters over the years, and Kate was the best by far!

About: I love animals, I am currently going to school to become a Marine Veterinarian. I also did an Internship at an Animal Hospital for about a year and a half. I have personally been taking care of animals since I was about 14. I had a husky for almost 12 years, I had to give her baths, take her on walks, and feed her. I now have a Shih Tzu and for her, I have to take her to her hair cut appointments, her vet appointments, give her baths twice a week, walk her and feed her. I also took care of my Grandma’s cat and I had to take her to hair cut appointments, feed her, and clean her litter box. I am hardworking and also put 110% into everything I do. I am very reliable, trustworthy and I make sure everything I do is done correctly. I have also watched way more pets than what rover says I have, and about 95% of the people I dog sit for do reach back out to me to see if I can watch their pet again! I am a full time student! I havs a part-time job back in august because I wanted to take a break from pet sitting since I had been doing it continuously for so long. I still pet sit for my old clients, but am now ready to take on some new ones! I’ve realized I want to work my way back into pet sitting so I can quit my part-time job! I would prioritize the visits needed over my current job for your animal! :) I really do miss pet sitting and hope to be able to get back into it! The pets I have watched, if it’s at the owners house, or mine, they always seem very happy, and the owners are always pleased when they arrive back home! I am very observant when it comes to watching animals, so I try to provide the best care I can while they are with me!

Great sitter for our two kitties for a week, when our other sitter wasn’t available. Trustworthy and would book again. Courtney was responsive, took pictures of the kitties, and was not hesitant to ask questions while we were gone. She had no issues using our technical alarm system. We appreciated that she brought in our mail without being asked (we never expect our pet sitter to do this, but always appreciate it) and she was accommodating to our change in travel schedule. Thanks Courtney!

About: I've always had a big heart for all animals. Growing up, we weren't allowed to have any pets larger than a rabbit- so I worked with that. We had fish, turtles, a lizard, chinchilla, but always begged for more. On my 12th birthday was when my sister and I were finally granted a miracle- our mother was allowing for us to adopt a set of kittens. From there, our furry family grew. We now have another cat and two dogs! When working to prove our responsibility, my sister and I took it upon ourselves to become our neighborhoods pet sitter and walker. In school, I had won an award for dedicating most community service hours where I volunteered to help at my local animal shelter. After high school I moved a lot for school and work, so had to leave behind my furry family behind at my familys home. Today in NC I have a small pup and rescued stray cat. They are the lights of my life and I would love to share some love with your fur baby as well!

Cheryl was a wonderful pet sitter, she took very good care of my dog that has separation anxiety. She only takes one dog at a time which I love, I know that my dog is going to get the attention that she needs. Sheryl is very thoughtful caring and made my dog feel very comfortable. She took her on long walks, and made her feel comfortable. I will definitely use her again whenever I am in town. She is the best dog sitter in this area.

Murphy came home exhausted after a full day of playing in the snowy backyard with Andrea’s dogs and the others she was watching for the day. He was a stinky, sleepy, happy pup! She was flexible and easy going, considering our change in pickup/dropoff times due to the snow and traffic. I will definitely use her again.

After my first visit to Julia's house, speaking with her, and seeing her great fenced yard and the way her home is set up, I am so comfortable with leaving our pup Annabelle in Julia's hands. We did one day of doggy day care because I'm a nervous dog momma who wanted to make sure it was going to work out before leaving Annabelle overnight for an upcoming trip we have. She came home tired and very happy!!! I Ioved getting to see pics of how much fun she was having with her new dog friends running and playing. I am confident she felt so loved throughout the day. We will definitely take her to Julia's again!

About: I have worked with all types of animals since I was a child. My friends would call me the dog whisperer because I just understand them naturally! I love training dogs and horses. I currently have 3 dogs, 2 cats and a flock of ducks! All of my dogs have been raised from puppies. I have cared for senior pets as well. I have spent hundreds of hours over the last several years educating myself on animal behavior for my own pets benefits so I am well equipped to love and care for yours as well! I have always been passionate about working with animals of all type. I will always go the extra mile to provide topnotch care and service. My husband and I travel often so I know how important it can be to find petcare that you can feel good about! I currently work from home full time with a very flexible schedule. I am able to come to your house during the day or stay nights! I can offer limited boarding as well. I love animals and I love travel. I would be committed to caring for your pets as if they were my own. I enjoy getting to know your pets as each one is so special. I am reliable and can accommodate just about any extra requests such as bathing, working on training skills, hiving medication, providing adequate excercise etc. I will ALWAYS do this with your pets safety and happiness as my top priority.

Amanda was GREAT!!! First time doing doggy daycare and I was highly satisfied. As I pulled into the driveway both her and her daughter was outside waiting on Luna. Throughout the day she messaged me on how Luna was doing and also sent pictures. She enjoyed so much she slept from the time I picked her up til the next morning. Definitely booking on the regular.

About: Reliable and attentive professional dog sitter dedicated to providing safe, comfortable, and stress-free care for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. Experienced in daily routines including feeding, walking, administering medications, and maintaining consistent schedules to keep pets happy and healthy while their owners are away. Known for a calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail, I focus on building trust with both dogs and their owners. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra support, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I prioritize clear communication, regular updates, and a clean, secure environment so owners can have complete peace of mind. Passionate about animal wellbeing and committed to treating every dog as if they were my own. I have decided to make caring for pets my full time job. I am single and live alone with my 2 yr old female pupper. We have plenty of time to make your fur babies feel how special they actually are. I have a small fenced in yard. If it's nice out then I like to leave it open so they have free reign. My place is small so I'm always near. I will only accept pets that get along with other dogs. It starts with my dog, Kaiya. She gets along with all dogs so if a dog has a problem with her then they won't be invited for doggy day care. However, that does not mean I cannot pay a visit to your house for any needs. I can also crate any dog that is better suited for that environment. Safety for all pups under my watch is the number one priority.

About: I didn't have dogs growing up but I always pet-sat for friends and family. I have dog-sat, walked, and groomed dogs of all sizes. I also grew up riding horses so I have a ton of experience handling dogs and other animals together. My first dog was a 100 pound German shepherd/ Rottweiler mix who was my heart and soul. We lived with a big Rottweiler for a few years so I got very comfortable handling multiple large dogs on my own. Then when I got married my ex husband and I had my old dog, two pit bulls, and a cattle dog/ jack russel mix. I was there sole care taker and they taught me so much. I got divorced and it was just me and my shepherd, who sadly passed away in 2022. Fast forward to now and I have a 5 year old son and a Dalmatian/ terrier mix. We treat her as well as we treat my little boy. We recently (well in the last year) added a young female foxhound to the family. She is SO sweet and silky and has been the best addition to our mix! The past ten or so years have given me so much experience caring for multiple dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperments. I’m just super passionate about giving my animals and those I care for the absolute best care I can. It’s also given me experience administering medication, giving shots, walking multiple dogs at a time, feeding special individualized diets, taking care of a special needs dog, etc. I’m just a true animal lover :) I am currently not working so my schedule is incredibly flexible to meet your pets needs around the clock. I wake up early, let the dogs out in the backyard, feed them, let them out again. They usually play outside for a little bit before coming inside to nap. When my husband gets home we take them on walks, play in the yard, or go walk our favorite trail. Then we go home, feed dinner, and relax until bed time! At home my dog is walked Atleast three times a day, and one of those walks is always somewhere different- the beach, the park, the cross city trails, etc. When we’re hanging at home we provide lots of enrichment activities, playtime with toys, and also enjoy just snuggling on the couch. While your dog is in my care they will receive the same. We feed our dog a special diet and she requires daily allergy medication so meeting your dogs dietary and medication needs is no issue. Our dog is allowed on furniture, so as long as it is okay with you we have no problem with your pup joining us on the couch or in our bed. However if they aren’t allowed, we have multiple dog beds in each room so they can still be comfortable while we’re being lazy. Although we no longer have a fenced yard, our yard is pretty big and we take our dog out on the long lead often to sniff and play so your dog will receive lots of outside time as well.

About: I was raised around dogs, and have been taking care of them for more than 10 years. I also have experience volunteering at a dog shelter, and have no problem handling bigger dogs or cleaning up after any animals :) Currently I work with Woofies, which is very similar to Rover, just not completely independent. So technically I don’t have a primary job except this! This will probably change but if I’m successful enough you can rely on me frequently :) Always make sure they are fed and comfortable, taken out, and try to get some of their energy out so their isn’t any issues. With some of the rougher ones I’ve learned being gentle is all they need.

About: I have been around pets my whole life! I have taken care of each and every pet I’ve had. I have always had either a dog or cat in my house. And each of my family members have had pets that I have been around as well. I also use to volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center, where I cared for injured animals. I have my own mini farm, where I have pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and turkeys! So if you need any of those types of animals cared for I can do that too! I have a very flexible schedule so I basically have the whole day to come take care of any pets! I have plenty of time to come and hang out with your furry family! I have four loving dogs that get outside all day long because I have so much time during the day and a very large fenced in backyard. We go on walks all the time! We can have a pet play date if your pet likes other dogs. If you need your pet needs to crated, I can do that. If they need soothing music put on, I can do that too!

About: I am a certified, licensed, and insured dog trainer and the owner of Chaos To Clarity K9. I work with dogs and their families on obedience, leash skills, everyday manners, and behavior challenges. Many of the dogs I help are everyday family dogs who need guidance with things like pulling on leash, barking, jumping, reactivity, or learning how to settle in the home. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping owners build strong foundations early through clear communication and consistency. I have a strong interest in behavior modification, especially helping dogs work through fear, stress, and reactivity at a pace that keeps them comfortable and learning. My husband is a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) and a combat veteran and former military police K9 handler who trained civilian police dogs. Because of his veterinary background, I’m also able to consult with him when behavior questions may have a possible medical component, which can sometimes play a role in behavior. I also understand that dogs live in real families with real challenges. I live with multiple sclerosis and am raising an autistic four-year-old, so I appreciate how important it is for training to be practical, realistic, and supportive of the household environment. My goal is always to help create calmer, safer, and more enjoyable relationships between dogs and the people who love them. One thing that’s very important to me is paying attention to canine body language and stress signals. Dogs communicate constantly through subtle changes in posture, facial expression, and movement, and recognizing those signals early can prevent many behavior problems from escalating. During training, I help owners learn how to recognize what their dog is communicating so they can respond in a way that builds trust, confidence, and better behavior over time. Dog training is part of my regular weekly routine, and I intentionally keep my schedule structured so each client receives focused attention. My current training availability is: • Tuesday: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM • Wednesday: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Thursday: 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Saturday: 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Sunday: Afternoon appointments available by request Closed: Monday and Friday Because each dog and family has unique needs, I limit the number of training sessions I take each week so I can provide thoughtful, individualized guidance and follow-up support between sessions. Safety, trust, and clear communication are always my top priorities when working with dogs and their families. I pay close attention to canine body language and stress signals to make sure dogs remain comfortable and able to learn during training. Training sessions focus on creating a calm, structured environment where both the dog and owner can succeed. I work at the dog’s pace and help owners understand what their dog is communicating so they can respond clearly and confidently. My goal is to create training plans that are safe, practical, and sustainable for everyday life, helping dogs feel more secure while helping owners feel supported throughout the process.

I attended dog grooming school and volunteer for the Central Florida Pug Rescue and Greyhound Pets Of America. I have also facilitated safe adoptions for dogs needing forever homes. I do prefer that you bring a crate for your dog to sleep in. Please note: overnights are based on a 24 hour period. This means that there may be an additional fee if your dog remains past 24 hours on the day of pickup. This is why I need to know an exact drop off and pickup time before booking.

About: Hello! I have been dog sitting on Rover for a few years now and I absolutely love it. Some facts about me are that I’m active in my church, love exploring, being in nature, and drinking coffee with friends! I grew up owning dogs and I love them! I have experience in dog sitting overnight and taking them on walks. I am a timely person who will be careful to remember your specific needs and instructions in taking care of your dog. I have experience in staying alert around other dogs and either making sure they will get along before approaching or crossing the street. I’m happy to take your dog for walks and potty breaks throughout the day, and most of all give your dog lots of love, cuddles and good company! I look forward to meeting you and getting to know you and your dog(s)! My work schedule is flexible and I’m not usually gone for longer than 3 to 4 hours. If you have any questions or requests, don’t hesitate to ask! I will care for your pets by giving them lots of pets and taking them on walks. I will be attentive to your pets needs and do everything in a timely manner because I care about caring for your pet! I will also send pictures and updates 2x a day.

About: I have trained all the dogs I ever had . I fostered and dog sit . I have lots of experience. I'm an animal lover I do work. But when I'm not working I'm spitting every living minute with animals. I love my dogs and help walk my senior neighbors dogs in the morning and when I come home at night . I do live in an apartment. And though that might be questionable we do have a lovely dog park and a wonderful area to walk the dogs around.

Andrew was great with communicating, ensured Rupert was safe and comfortable, and got lots of walks! He also sent update photos so I knew Rupert was enjoying himself and administered Rupert’s daily medications without a hitch! 10/10 would recommend!

We had a last minute business trip and had to quickly find accommodations for our 6 month old puppy. Having never used a Rover we were VERY anxious and scared. We messaged several people and have still not received a response from some, but Andrea responded in less than an hour and was ready to help us out. Trooper is now home and exhausted from a weekend of fun and we were so grateful to her for taking such good care of our baby.

Cheryl was great with Buffy! Made her comfortable, made sure she introduced Buffy to her Dogs slowly so they would get along. She has plenty of space inside and outside for dogs to play. I was very pleased with the everyday updates and pictures. I will definitely use her again. She was very accommodating for me. Very nice lady.

About: I’ve had animals since I was a kid and always enjoyed taking care of them! It’s very rewarding for me. In my early 20s I was a dog trainer I’m a stay at home dad. We have a 10 and a 5 year old. I take walks throughout the day and between my wife someone is always home unless we are taking the kids somewhere. If they like the car and the park I can even take them with me! I walk a lot and am outside with my kids throughout the day. My kids love dogs so they will be showered with love and cuddles (if they enjoy that).

About: I currently have a 10 year old female yellow lab, 10 year old male outdoor cat, and a 3 year old guinea pig! I do weekly stays for a family in landfall with three doodles, and have lots of experience with all ages, breeds, and needs! I am experienced and comfortable with giving medications to all animals such as pills, oral medications, eye drops, ear drops, etc! I’m currently finishing up at CFCC this year, and own two online businesses. I am very reliable and flexible! I babysit only on Mondays, which leaves my week free. I will follow guidelines, routines, and schedules to ensure your pet feels at home and comfortable with me. I love sending check in photos so you can know what your fur baby is up to!

About: I have been around pets my whole life! I have taken care of each and every pet I’ve had. I have always had either a dog or cat in my house. And each of my family members have had pets that I have been around as well. I also use to volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center, where I cared for injured animals. I have my own mini farm, where I have pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and turkeys! So if you need any of those types of animals cared for I can do that too! I have a very flexible schedule so I basically have the whole day to come take care of any pets! I have plenty of time to come and hang out with your furry family! I have four loving dogs that get outside all day long because I have so much time during the day and a very large fenced in backyard. We go on walks all the time! We can have a pet play date if your pet likes other dogs. If you need your pet needs to crated, I can do that. If they need soothing music put on, I can do that too!

About: I have two dogs and a cat of my own. :) I worked two years at Pet Supermarket, first as a cashier, then as a manager. My responsibilities were to help keep everything tidy, ensure the animals were well cared for at the store, and assist customers with their pet needs. I also grew up in a home with reptiles, cats, dogs, birds and small rodents. I'm currently prepared to work part-time with boarding, dog-sitting, and walking dogs after 12:00 on weekdays, and I'm flexible with weekends. I have two dogs and a cat to help keep your fur baby company. I don't have a fenced-in backyard, but there are places around the community where I like to walk my dogs. We also have dog-proof rooms upstairs where we can separate pets as needed.

Judging from our dog's demeanor before and after her stay (and the photos), Dottie felt very comfortable staying with Hunter. -- like staying with a known relative. I would highly recommend Hunter to watch anyone's pet. - Michael

This was my first time doing pet sitting with my 7 month old puppy and I was super nervous but Abigail was so helpful and calmed my nerves sending me pictures and videos of my dog. I felt super comfortable knowing he was okay and on his own little vacation. Her dogs were so playful and sweet even with a size difference. A bonus is my dog came back so well behaved it was crazy he learned a-lot from her dogs is such a good way and that says a lot for a puppy😂 I will only be booking with Abigail!

Amanda and her family were incredible with my dog Jax! Amanda was pleasant and kind to work with. I was afraid he would be scared, staying with new folks, but he fit right in! They made him feel welcome, and made me feel comfortable about his first ever sleepover. She always kept in touch, made sure to send pictures, and let me know how things were going to ease my mind. If I had a question, she was ready to answer. I know with 100% certainty and he was loved, cared for, and adored. When I was picking him up, he hardly wanted to leave! I would absolutely put any one of my animals in the trust of Amanda any day of the week. Thanks again!

Rose took great care of our girl Jada! She sent us pictures of her sunbathing and lounging on the couch. This was the longest we had our pup stay with someone else & when we picked her up, she was happy & her normal self! Highly recommend. We already have peace of mind for a future stay in a few weeks with her knowing the past week went great.

About: Hi! I'm Kaitlyn, and I've spent the past 10 years caring for pets of all ages-from playful puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats who need a little extra patience and gentle attention. I have two dogs myself a 3-year-old Aussiedoodle named Maxine and an 1-year-old Goldendoodle named Meeko so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. What sets me apart is my reliability, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals-I treat every pet as if they were my own. I'm comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, medication reminders, and, of course, giving plenty of affection. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. I'd love to schedule a meet and greet to see if I'm the right fit for your furry friend! - Kaitlyn Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m available Monday through Friday before 8 a.m. and after 5:30 p.m., and I’m home full-time on weekends, which allows me to provide consistent, dependable care. In a client’s home, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or cuddle time—so they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while keeping their space clean and secure. When caring for pets in my own home, I provide a welcoming, safe environment where they’ll enjoy lots of love, playtime, and supervision. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they feel at home and well cared for. I have two friendly dogs who love to play and make new friends!
