“Andrea was really responsive and provided updates throughout the day. My pup Biggie is a big brut and he transitioned right in. Truly appreciated the extra touches of love that made his stay easier for both of us! Will book again and share with friends💛”
“Joshua, you were fantastic with my dog Slippy for the full 10 days. From the very beginning, I could tell how much care and attention you gave him. The regular updates and sweet photos meant the world to me and let me truly relax on my trip. Slippy came home happy, energetic, and clearly well-loved. I so grateful for everything you did. Thank you so much, Joshua — I would happily trust you with Slippy again anytime!”
“Heather is always wonderful with our anxious boy, Baxter! She’s friendly and helpful, cares about your pets and answers all your questions. I’ve always worried about Baxter when we are away, but when he’s with Heather I’m never worried! She’s the best!!”
“Rosie was very happy and well taken care of. Jessica went out of her way to make sure she ate since Rosie was homesick and not eating her dry food. I was updated daily with pictures.”
About: I am a reliable, active, and detail-oriented dog sitter. I tailor every stay to your dog's unique routine and personality. Fully equipped to handle feeding, medication, exercise and plenty of TLC. Let's chat about how I can make your dog's day great! I do doggie daycare/boarding full time, so I am always home. During the day, the pups go on pack walks, explore and sniff or they can chill in the fenced yard, if that is more their style. I am fully insured and certified in canine first aid and CPR, so your dog is always in safe, capable hands. My family dogs are friendly, laid back and always welcome to new friends. My home is set up with multiple boundaries to allow dogs to have quiet time when needed.
“Becky and Bob were fantastic and our dogs had a great stay! We were nervous to try Rover, but needed to find something after having a few unpleasant boarding experiences. I'm so happy I decided to book with Becky - her and her husband made us feel right at ease the moment we met them. Our normally shy dogs warmed up to them quickly and came home happy, healthy and tuckered out. Thank you for taking such good care of our fur babies while we were away. I would definitely book again and hope they are available for our next vacation! - Jenn, Josh, Kaya & Kain”
“Donna was amazing! Super friendly, very attentive, and our doggos felt comfortable with her immediately! The dogs asked to spend some time there again in the future and we are happy to oblige ?”
About: 🔆Hi! You can call me Jordan! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 12 years of hands-on experience caring for both 🐶 and 🐱 I raised my own rescued dog and cat from just 1 month old and they’re now happy, healthy seniors — so I truly understand the patience, consistency, and love pets need at every stage of life. They’ve moved with me through five cities and three countries. I’ve never given up on them through any stage of my life. 👩🍳 I enjoy cooking nutritious and balanced meals for animals (sometimes for myself ) I love all animals and will learn more knowledge if you need cares for all kinds of pets (chickens, ducks, birds, pigs, etc) 💻 I have been working from home for over 6 years so I will be available everyday! Do not hesitate to contact me on any holidays. Available 7 days a week including all holidays🫡 I will strictly follow all instructions and offer detailed services for them. I will use all the pets knowledge I learnt from books and internet
“I can’t say enough how happy I am to have found Julianna. She has a great personality, is informative and took our girl (Brook) in as one of her family, in fact - her entire family took her in. We didn’t get the usual ‘cold shoulder’ from Brook when we returned from our vacation, so that speaks volumes. This is our third time we’ve had to leave Brook to travel. I wouldn’t go to anyone else. Hard to leave, but knowing Brook will be well taken care of and happy makes it MUCH easier. She earned and deserves all five stars from our family!”
“This is our third booking with Briahna! We greatly appreciate her responsiveness and updates, but most importantly how much she actually enjoys having Charlie! It definitely puts our minds at ease knowing he is well-cared for. We are already scheduling his next stay!”
“I recently boarded my dog with Daria for the first time, and I was a bit nervous since it was my dog's first experience staying in a stranger's house. However, Daria was amazing! She made my dog feel comfortable and at ease right away. The updates and pictures she sent showed how well my dog was adapting and enjoying the stay. Her kindness and attention to detail made all the difference. I highly recommend Daria for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter, especially for first-timers!”
About: I have had 2 dogs for the last 6 years although one recently passed and have helped out with dogs since I was 16. Not great with cats but could watch it needed. I can administer medication as well as I had to for my dog. Monday and Friday I can use my lunch break for a visit, middle of the week days , I am available after 3, weekends are wide open I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space and our dog cannoli is very very friendly and will love to have a friend. She is up to date with all vaccinations.
“Krystyna and Sara were AMAZING. They took care of my 2 dogs for a long weekend when I had to go away for a family funeral. I was already anxious about leaving them with someone new and they went above and beyond. They sent pictures and messages throughout the day. One of my dogs was having a paw issue with his nail and they took care of him and all the needs that came along with it. I will be recommending them to everyone I know and will for sure book with them again!!”
“Aya and Abdullah are absolutely amazing. I was desperately looking for someone to care for my beautiful cat, Zoë while transitioning to a new place, and they were truly a blessing during such a stressful and emotional time. The moment they told me they could help, I felt such a huge sense of relief. They gave Zoë her own space, treated her with so much care, and sent daily pictures and updates that gave me so much comfort and peace of mind. They’re kind, reliable, professional, and always quick to respond. I trust them completely with Zoe and will definitely reach out to them again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and trustworthy pet sitters!”
“Heather was very quick to respond when I was looking for a dog sitter. She is very responsive and always kept me updated! My dog had a little upset stomach and she did give him some pumpkin puree :) I would definitely rebook with Heather and highly recommend!!”
“Donnie rocks! From our meet and greet, to boarding our German Shepherd for over a week, to picking him back up, it all went so awesome! Donnie gave us great feedback on what he observed, good and not so good, and how to work with him. He has a great set up for the dogs! We were relaxed the entire time. Will definitely always use him in the future.”
“I couldn't have for a better sitter. Julia was so communicative, sending frequent pictures and updates. Jake had such a good time and we trust Julia and her family to take care of him.”

“Yajing went above and beyond caring for our cat for 8 days while we were vacationing. She was very communicative and our cat loved spending time with her. Yajing brought additional toys for our cat to play with, kept us updated with photos and videos, and left our home super clean. We would definitely book again with her in the future!”
“I hired Tiffany to take care of my cat’s needs for a day during a short road trip. She communicated well and did everything needed! Meeting and talking with her made it clear she’s a true animal person. Highly recommended for the care of any sort of pet!”
“Sorry Im so later with a review .Chelsea did a very good job taking care of Fred ,she gave him his insulin shots twice a day ,did a good job taking care of his food ,water and tray .Sorry you moved I would have you take care of Fred any day .”

“Andrea was very nice and had excellency communication. On top of that she was able to get Tucker in last minute (the next day). For sure recommend using Andrea for your furry family.”
“Minnie is a great resource for cat sitting. We have three cats and one is very skittish. She will run when most people open the door. By the end of the 2nd day, she was sitting with Minnie on the couch allowing her to be pet, it was amazing. Minnie was great when the oldest cat had some kind of episode, possible seizure. Definitely recommended Minnie for taking care of your fur babies.”
“Lily was diligent and terrifically communicative. She put our minds at ease all throughout the process and connected with Pickles easily. A true animal lover and a true professional!”
“Olivia went above and beyond to take care of my cat Nona! She sent lots of lovely photos & took great care with Nona’s food, water, litter & playtime. She was super reliable and communicative. A phenomenal sitter!”
About: I've taken care of cats since I was a small kid and I've studied and learned everything possible to really understand them! I've become quite excellent at reading the smallest of cat body language. I love all of them and will love, and take care of yours, with utmost dedication and care! I'm also very experienced with cats who have a traumatic past and are reactive or skittish. I will love and take care of your kitties like they were my own!
“Jessica was caring and attentive to our kitties! She was able to modify some instructions when my kitten wasn’t eating as well and was very communicative with updates. Thanks, Jessica!”
“Lindsay took care of our (cat) babies like they were her own. She took photos of them every time she came to see them, and spent time playing with them as well as feeding and medicating as needed. My cats loved her from the very first introduction. Lindsay is not only an animal lover, she's also a great lady. She surprised us with a list of places and things to try since she knew my husband and I had just moved into the area! We’re definitely looking forward to having her care for our cats in the future.”
About: I have never lived without an animal in my home as a child or as an adult. Animals are true members of the family. I have volunteered in animal shelters for many years, and still continue to do so. Therefore, I have experience with all ages, including seniors, administering medications and general care and socialization, and more importantly know how to calm and make an animal feel safe and at ease. I will love your pet, send photos, and take as much time as needed to be sure his/her needs are met.

About: Hi! I'm very active during the day and super chill at night. I work a full time job but will spend breakfast, lunch, and dinner with your dog plus a 30+ minute walk/run. I like to curl up and watch tv or read a book after work and will cuddle with your dog. I have a Bernese Mountain Dog of my own, currently 7 months old and he loves meeting new dogs. I can always bring him with me or leave him at home to give your dog all my attention. I work from home so having an extra dog here is very easy. I am also able to get away and come to you to care for your dog. I have a fully fenced yard that my dog loves to run in. We can’t wait to have your dog over to play with Kevin!

“5 stars! Lindsey took very good care of my doggy while I was visiting from out of town for Newport Seafood and Winefest. She was happy to watch him for however long I needed, which I loved because I didn't have to rush to and from the fest like I have had to in years past due to using the Commercial Dog Daycare in Newport. She took him to the dog park and sent me a picture of him to check in, and he returned to me as one tired pup, which is good! She is also quick to respond to any messages sent, and will check in with you a day or two prior to watching your dog. I trust Lindsey with my dog, and will definitely contact her again in the future!”
“This was my first time ever using rover as a customer and I am VERY impressed!!! We were in the area for a few errends, and didn’t want to leave our pup home for 8hrs😂 I got AMAZING pictures, she’s super sweet, and bonus points for taking my request THE MORNING OF! Simba didn’t even want to leave 😭 he had so much fun and I think will sleep the entire 3hr car ride home!”
“My 2 dogs had a meet & greet with Nicole before spending the day at her home. There was a nice fenced in area and other dogs to play with. When I dropped them off for the day, they didn't even look back. She was kind enough to send photos during the day and let me know they were doing fine. I picked them up that evening - they were happy and tired!”
About: I am a mom to a wonderful 4 year old boy! I am a server at the moment, also looking to fill up some of my free time by spending time with and looking after some pups and cats since I am not allowed to have my own full time at the place I currently live! I have been around animals almost my entire life, mainly dogs, but also cats; birds, ferrets, guinea pigs, and also a chameleon! When I was around 7 up until age 12, I helped my aunts take care of over 20 miniature pinchers, as well as a Doberman, 5 cats, 3 ferrets, and two birds! And afterwards, I’ve lived with three pups that have absolutely all of my heart. Since moving out of my parents a several years ago though, I only get to see my pups a few times a week, and god do I miss being around them for snuggles, walks, and playtime outside. I cherish every moment with them. I don’t currently have any pups living with me at my own place, the stars haven’t aligned quite yet to take in a dog of our own, which is why I’ve decided to become apart of this community so that I am able to still spend more time with pups and also help out others who need their’s watched and cared for! I know most dogs (and some cats depending on their mood aha) just need lots of love and attention, and it can be super nerve wracking for them to be away from their owners, but also nerve wracking for the owners to leave their pets with a stranger. Dogs and cats are more than pets, they’re family. Trusting in me to care and look after your pet is something that will never be overlooked, and I will do whatever I can to ensure that they are cared for and kept safe, as well as doing whatever is needed to give you complete piece of mind that your loved one(s) are in the greatest of hands✨ I look forward to meeting you and your pups or kittys!! I have Monday-Wednesday off, varying things going on during those three days so availability will vary! Fridays I’m available anytime after 4 ! Weekends I usually do doubles so I don’t have much time on those days Although I don’t have a fenced in yard, there are plenty of parks around for exploring and play time, as well as some yard space just right outside my home if you don’t feel comfortable with your pup being brought elsewhere! My place isn’t too big but my home is their’s for as long as they’re here! I can give baths if needed, walks, snuggles, and playtime!
“Briahna was absolutely wonderful! She communicated regularly, sent cute pics of my puppy Rio, and treated him with so much love and affection. I would recommend Briahna to any first time or veteran pet owner looking for reliable, worry free, quality pet care. 10/10! ⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Heather was an absolute lifesaver and a fantastic sitter! She jumped in last minute when we needed her, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She provided regular updates with messages and adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was so sweet to hear how my dog enjoy playing together with her dog, enjoyed a little backyard chase, and even went on a car ride! Heather even let my dog borrow a coat for their walk, which was such a thoughtful touch. I truly appreciate all the care and attention she provided, making sure my dog felt comfortable, safe, and well-loved. If you're looking for a reliable, kind, and communicative sitter, Heather is the best! I highly recommend her and would definitely book again.”
About: We love our dogs with an insane amount of love and care. They are our babies. Specializing in pugs and senior and disabled care. I am empathetic, give attention to detail, and give the utmost respect to all who are unable to care for themselves. 🐾🙂 Pet care doesn’t just FIT into the daily routine. It IS the daily routine, 24/7, no days off, no holidays. Our dogs are members of our family. I care for others animals just like I would want ours to be cared for. Which, if you know us, is like royalty. 😊😉 (Our pugs’ closet is bigger than mine.)
About: I am a lover of all animals. I have owned and lived with dogs for over 15+ years and cats for 20+ years. I have also worked for a dog rescue in which I resided with at least 20 dogs daily. I understand the love and care that animals need and strive for! I have an 11 year old and 4 year old, in which I have 1 full time and the other split custody, so please be aware that there will always be at least one small child present! I live in an apartment in a house with plenty of room to roam! We are on the second floor, so we do have stairs, just incase your pet has an issue with them. I look forward to meeting your pets and having some fun! Please feel free to ask any questions you may have! I work from home so I only usually have to leave to either pick up the kids or run errands! I am available all day to attend to your loved ones! I will always treat your loved ones as if they were my own! Lots of love and attention! We will play games and run around like goof balls!
About: I have always been described as the animal lover in my family, always trying to convince my parents to get me a new pet. I have been petsitting since 2020, and have excellent references! I’m comfortable with anything from feeding, to walking, to just hanging out, to administering medication! I am currently home in New Hampshire from college in Boston looking to expand my pet sitting experience! I am free almost every day, and can provide exceptional and reliable care for your pets. Pets at my home are always taken care of with the same love and respect I give my own pets. I have a fenced in yard!
“Jodie is absolutely amazing! Booked her last minute for two days of daycare for my puppy and she excepted right away. Her updates and communication throughout the day is absolutely awesome. I could not recommend a better person to watch your pet. I will be continuing to use her for all my daycare and boarding needs! If I could give her 10 stars I would!!”
About: My husband and I have been around dogs our entire lives and have hands-on experience caring for them in a home environment. Currently, we have a large, professionally trained dog who has helped us develop strong skills in structure, consistency, and understanding dog behavior. She was trained through 6 months, and we continue to reinforce that training daily, so I’m very comfortable with commands, routines, and maintaining a calm, well-balanced environment. We have experience with: • Large and high-energy breeds • Maintaining feeding schedules and routines • Reinforcing basic training and good behavior • Reading dog body language and temperament • Creating a safe, calm environment for multiple dogs For us, safety and attentiveness are second nature. We are always present, aware, and intentional about making sure every dog in our care feels comfortable, secure, and well looked after. Your dog will never feel like they’re in a kennel they’ll feel like they’re part of our family. Your dog’s stay will feel like a true home away from home, safe, loving, and tailored just for them. • Daily walks (morning, afternoon, and evening) plus plenty of outdoor time • Support with training and reinforcement of good habits, we’ve worked with professional trainers and are happy to continue that structure • Lots of snuggles, attention, and one-on-one care • Supervised playtime with our gentle, well-trained dog, Paris • Calm evenings with a consistent, comforting routine • Kind, dog-loving kids who interact gently and safely We’re highly attentive to each dog’s unique needs and energy level, whether they’re playful and active or more relaxed and cuddly. We’re happy to accommodate your dog’s individual sleeping routine to make them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether they prefer sleeping in a crate, on a dog bed, or having their own space to roam (including an entire floor if needed), we’ll follow your preferences and keep their routine consistent with what they’re used to at home. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel completely at ease knowing your dog is happy, cared for, and part of our family while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. We provide a calm, structured, and impeccably clean home where dogs are always supervised and cared for with intention. To ensure a truly personalized, low-stress, luxury experience, we limit the number of dogs in our care. We typically host just one client at a time, if you have multiple dogs, we’re happy to accommodate your family together. We never exceed three dogs total, including our own, so every dog receives dedicated attention, comfort, and care. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and all interactions, whether with our dog Paris or my children, are closely monitored to ensure safe, positive experiences. Paris is well-trained, gentle, and accustomed to being around other dogs. We take time to understand each dog’s routine, preferences, and temperament so we can provide a consistent and comfortable stay. Feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific instructions are followed closely. Our home is designed to feel like a second home, not a kennel, where your dog can relax, feel safe, and be genuinely cared for. ***We take trust and safety very seriously and are committed to following your dog’s routine as closely as possible. This includes accommodating any feeding method or dietary needs, whether that’s raw food, fresh or home-cooked meals, kibble, or more specific requirements like low-protein or other restricted diets. We carefully follow your instructions to ensure consistency, safety, and your dog’s overall well-being.*** We also provide regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and confident while you're away. We understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable with who is caring for your dog. When we've have used Rover for Paris, we always appreciated the opportunity to meet beforehand, so we are more than happy to offer a meet-and-greet prior to booking. This gives you the chance to see our home, ask any questions, and feel confident in the safe, calm, and personalized care your dog will receive while staying with our family.

“Highly recommend! We use Josh for dog walks and couldn’t be happier. Our dogs LOVE Josh and so do we. He is extremely dependable, an amazing communicator, and treats our girls like their one of his own. One of our girls can be very reactive towards other dogs while on walks and Josh took the time to help with this. He was even able to include one of his dogs on a walk with our reactive pup after some training. The walk went great and we can see such a difference in our girls behavior for the better! We truly couldn’t ask for better care for our girls. 10/10!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for friends and family for about 14 years. I started off helping my older sisters. I have dogs, cats and a ball python at home. I had a bearded dragon that recently passed. I’ve also house sat and watch horses, goats, ducks and chickens for about 7 years. Message me with any questions. At the moment I’m very flexible because I’m not working. I’m in online school and have a baby (born June 2025) that will be coming with me. Send me a message and I’d love to talk and see if I’d be a good fit. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats in my home, as well as a ball python. I have a fenced in backyard and have a baby born June of 2025.
“So happy to have found Lily! She is amazing with my dogs! I really appreciate that she wants to get to know your pet and their specific needs, very loving and caring.Thank you Lily you’re a true gem!”
About: I currently have two cats and two dogs that I absolutely adore and consider part of the family. I've also pet sat for family friends and have experience caring for pets with different needs and personalities. After caring for a sick fur baby of my own, I'm comfortable giving medications and helping pets who need a little extra attention or medical care. I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands, and I’ll always treat them with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own. ❤️ I’m currently a full-time college student completing my classes online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. Because I can plan my coursework around my commitments, I’m able to be dependable and accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. I’m more than happy to provide in-home visits to care for your precious pets. Before any visits begin, I like to meet with families to discuss any questions, concerns, or special care instructions. It’s also a great opportunity for your pets to get comfortable with me and for us to make sure we’re a good fit. My goal is to help both you and your pets feel safe, confident, and at ease while you're away.
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is not only my reliability, but also my lifelong experience with dogs. I grew up with a Labrador who showed me the joy of unconditional love, and I recently had to say goodbye to my sweet girl after 12 wonderful years together. She was truly family, and I cared for her through every stage of life, which gave me a deep understanding of what it means to love and look after a dog. Now, I get to share that love with my two young kids (ages 4 and 6), who absolutely adore dogs and treat every pup like their own playmate. Whether it’s long walks, cozy snuggles, or just keeping up with your dog’s daily routine, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and part of our pack. Because I work full time during the week, I reserve dog care for weekends only—this way I can dedicate my attention and energy to your pup. My weekends are open for long walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles, and my kids and I love having the extra time to focus on making each dog feel happy and cared for. By keeping my schedule this way, I can promise that your furry family member won’t just “fit into” my day—they’ll become a part of my family for the day(s). When caring for dogs, I focus on keeping them active, loved, and comfortable. My two young kids (ages 4 and 6) have endless energy and love to play, so visiting pups get plenty of attention and interaction. I live in a quiet town with lots of sidewalks and nearby neighborhoods, which makes for safe and enjoyable walks. While I don’t have a fenced-in backyard, I do have plenty of grassy space for outdoor time, and I’m happy to crate dogs if that’s part of their routine or helps them feel secure. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or downtime, I’ll make sure your pup feels right at home.
About: I treat animals as a parent would with a child. It's all about knowing that every creature has a personality of their own and providing the appropriate enforcement for positive behavior and training. I work full-time, yet I make time for evening walks with my dog (if the temperature is bearable). On the weekends, I take her for 1-2 walks within the two days. Late Spring to mid Fall is the best time for outdoor fun. I have another older dog that is crate trained if they need to be caged in because of visitors. If a dog is trained well enough to not run off, I do have a wide open backyard they can run around in.

I am empathetic, give attention to detail, and give the utmost respect to all who are unable to care for themselves. 🐾🙂 Pet care doesn’t just FIT into the daily routine.

“Olivia has been such a blessing to help break up the day for my newly rescued pup, Woody. She is kind, patient, friendly, responsive and is a great communicator. She takes her time with Woody never seemingly rushing or overwhelming him. She takes his ques when he’s anxious on walks and wants to return home pivoting to a play session out back or inside with his toys and giving me a debriefing. I was anxious about utility Roover at first with some friends poor experiences. My anxiety quickly disappeared after a brief FaceTime to connect prior to Woodys first walk. Woody and I certainly got lucky with finding Olivia to be apart of our days/weeks. Thank you Olivia for being you, we are truly grateful for you.”
About: Hi, I’m Jordyn! Animals aren’t just a job for me—they are my absolute passion. I’ve been working professionally in the pet care industry since 2019, running my own successful dog daycare and boarding services. Because of my background, I bring a high level of expertise, safety, and dedication to every pet I care for. I’ve loved and managed just about every breed, size, and personality out there, and I deeply understand canine behavior, social dynamics, and safety protocols. I know how tough it can be to leave your four-legged family member behind, which is why my goal is to give them a fun, stress-free environment where they feel right at home. Whether your pup is a high-energy bundle of fun or a sensitive soul who needs a little extra patience, I tailor my care to what they need most. What you can expect when your dog is with me: • Professional Expertise: Experience managing dietary needs, medicine administration, and diverse temperaments. • A Cozy, Structured Environment: Plenty of love, structure, and personalized attention so they feel like family. • Peace of Mind: Reliable communication and frequent photo updates so you never have to wonder how they're doing. I’m fully committed to making sure your dog has a fantastic, safe experience. I can't wait to meet your furry best friend! Because my profession and my lifestyle are completely centered around animals, pet care isn't just a task tacked onto my day—it is the structure of my daily and weekly routine. Here is a look at how pet care naturally shapes my schedule: The Daily Rhythm: Structure & Consistency Cats and dogs thrive on routine, so my days are built around predictable, high-quality care windows: • Morning Kickoff (The Energy Boost): The day always starts early with breakfast, fresh water, and essential health checks. For dogs, this means immediate outdoor time, structured group play, or morning walks to burn off early energy. For cats, it’s about refreshing litter boxes, feeding on a precise schedule, and offering some gentle morning scratches or playtime for the early risers. • Mid-Day Management (Balance & Maintenance): Mid-day is all about balance. It includes administering any afternoon medications, managing specific dietary needs, and supervising play dynamics to keep the environment safe and harmonious. For more independent pets or cats, this is a great time for quiet companionship, checking in on shy animals, and keeping their environment pristine. • Evening Wind-Down (Cozy Comfort): As the day wraps up, the focus shifts to winding down. After evening meals, I focus on creating a calm, cozy atmosphere. This is the time for belly rubs, lap lounging, and ensuring every animal feels safe, secure, and treated like family before bed. The Weekly Flow: Communication & Upkeep On a weekly basis, pet care involves the operational behind-the-scenes work that keeps everything running smoothly: • Constant Client Communication: A huge part of my week is dedicated to giving owners peace of mind. I stay in regular contact with frequent photo updates and detailed check-ins so clients never have to wonder how their furry family members are doing. • Environment & Safety Deep-Cleans: Maintaining a safe, hygienic space is a top priority. Weekly routines include deep-sanitizing play areas, washing bedding, checking safety gates, and thoroughly refreshing pet areas to ensure top-tier cleanliness. • Individualized Attention Planning: Every week brings different personalities, ages, and temperaments. I constantly adjust my weekly flow to accommodate high-energy pups who need extra exercise, or older, sensitive pets who require a quieter, more patient pace. Ultimately, blending professional expertise with genuine affection means that providing a safe, structured, and loving environment is second nature to my everyday routine. When pets stay with me, they are welcomed directly into my daily life and treated like a member of the family. My home environment is designed to offer the perfect balance of professional safety and domestic comfort. • A Tailored, Safe Environment: Because of my background in professional pet care, my home is fully set up for safety and supervision. I closely monitor all interactions and group dynamics, ensuring that high-energy pets have space to play while more sensitive or older animals have quiet, designated areas to relax undisturbed. • Consistency is Key: I replicate the structure pets need to feel secure. This means adhering to regular feeding schedules, prompt bathroom breaks, and managing specific dietary or medical needs with professional precision. • The Best of Both Worlds: Pets get the socialization, playtime, and mental stimulation they crave during the day, followed by a calm, cozy environment in the evening. There is always a warm lap, plenty of belly rubs, and a comfortable spot to wind down. In Your Home: Maintaining Comfort, Routine, and Security When I care for pets in your home—whether for drop-in visits, dog walking, or house sitting—my primary goal is to minimize their stress by keeping their exact environment and routine completely unchanged. • Respecting the Routine: I step seamlessly into your pet’s normal schedule. I feed them in their usual spots, walk them along their familiar neighborhood routes, and follow your specific instructions to the letter. This continuity is especially vital for cats and anxious dogs, who thrive on predictability. • Focused, One-on-One Attention: Without the distractions of a daycare environment, your pet gets my undivided love and attention. Whether it’s an energetic game of fetch in the backyard, a focused neighborhood walk, or a quiet cuddle session on the couch with a sensitive cat, the time is entirely theirs. • Home Security & Peace of Mind: Beyond top-tier pet care, I treat your home with the utmost respect and discretion. I ensure doors are securely locked, mail is brought in if requested, and the living space is kept exactly as you left it. What You Get in Both Settings: Unmatched Peace of Mind. No matter where the care takes place, my commitment to communication never changes. You will receive regular, detailed updates and plenty of photos so you can see exactly how relaxed, happy, and safe your furry family member is while you're away.
“Owen came to walk our big Shepsky while we were out of town. My dog loved him! Owen was reliable, friendly, and clearly really good with dogs. We will definitely use him again in the future! Thank you from Timber and us!”
About: Hi, my name is Heidi and I love to pet sit! I'm 35 years old and I have been pet sitting all kinds of animals since I was young. I have experience sitting animals (cats, dogs, rabbits, etc.) overnight as well as feeding, administering medications, walking and playing with dogs, cats, etc. I love animals and enjoy hanging out with them. Currently I work full-time with children and adolescents as a licensed clinical mental health counselor. I do pet sitting on the side according to clients’ needs. When I care for pets, I go to the owners’ homes and provide drop-in visits for cats, provide dog walks, spend time with each pet, and ensure their safety and comfort.

“Andrea was really responsive and provided updates throughout the day. My pup Biggie is a big brut and he transitioned right in. Truly appreciated the extra touches of love that made his stay easier for both of us! Will book again and share with friends💛”
“Joshua, you were fantastic with my dog Slippy for the full 10 days. From the very beginning, I could tell how much care and attention you gave him. The regular updates and sweet photos meant the world to me and let me truly relax on my trip. Slippy came home happy, energetic, and clearly well-loved. I so grateful for everything you did. Thank you so much, Joshua — I would happily trust you with Slippy again anytime!”
“Heather is always wonderful with our anxious boy, Baxter! She’s friendly and helpful, cares about your pets and answers all your questions. I’ve always worried about Baxter when we are away, but when he’s with Heather I’m never worried! She’s the best!!”
“Rosie was very happy and well taken care of. Jessica went out of her way to make sure she ate since Rosie was homesick and not eating her dry food. I was updated daily with pictures.”
About: I am a reliable, active, and detail-oriented dog sitter. I tailor every stay to your dog's unique routine and personality. Fully equipped to handle feeding, medication, exercise and plenty of TLC. Let's chat about how I can make your dog's day great! I do doggie daycare/boarding full time, so I am always home. During the day, the pups go on pack walks, explore and sniff or they can chill in the fenced yard, if that is more their style. I am fully insured and certified in canine first aid and CPR, so your dog is always in safe, capable hands. My family dogs are friendly, laid back and always welcome to new friends. My home is set up with multiple boundaries to allow dogs to have quiet time when needed.
“Becky and Bob were fantastic and our dogs had a great stay! We were nervous to try Rover, but needed to find something after having a few unpleasant boarding experiences. I'm so happy I decided to book with Becky - her and her husband made us feel right at ease the moment we met them. Our normally shy dogs warmed up to them quickly and came home happy, healthy and tuckered out. Thank you for taking such good care of our fur babies while we were away. I would definitely book again and hope they are available for our next vacation! - Jenn, Josh, Kaya & Kain”
“Donna was amazing! Super friendly, very attentive, and our doggos felt comfortable with her immediately! The dogs asked to spend some time there again in the future and we are happy to oblige ?”
“I can’t say enough how happy I am to have found Julianna. She has a great personality, is informative and took our girl (Brook) in as one of her family, in fact - her entire family took her in. We didn’t get the usual ‘cold shoulder’ from Brook when we returned from our vacation, so that speaks volumes. This is our third time we’ve had to leave Brook to travel. I wouldn’t go to anyone else. Hard to leave, but knowing Brook will be well taken care of and happy makes it MUCH easier. She earned and deserves all five stars from our family!”
“This is our third booking with Briahna! We greatly appreciate her responsiveness and updates, but most importantly how much she actually enjoys having Charlie! It definitely puts our minds at ease knowing he is well-cared for. We are already scheduling his next stay!”
About: I have had 2 dogs for the last 6 years although one recently passed and have helped out with dogs since I was 16. Not great with cats but could watch it needed.

Monday and Friday I can use my lunch break for a visit, middle of the week days , I am available after 3, weekends are wide open I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space and our dog cannoli is very very friendly and will love to have a friend. She is up to date with all vaccinations.
“Krystyna and Sara were AMAZING. They took care of my 2 dogs for a long weekend when I had to go away for a family funeral. I was already anxious about leaving them with someone new and they went above and beyond. They sent pictures and messages throughout the day. One of my dogs was having a paw issue with his nail and they took care of him and all the needs that came along with it. I will be recommending them to everyone I know and will for sure book with them again!!”
“Aya and Abdullah are absolutely amazing. I was desperately looking for someone to care for my beautiful cat, Zoë while transitioning to a new place, and they were truly a blessing during such a stressful and emotional time. The moment they told me they could help, I felt such a huge sense of relief. They gave Zoë her own space, treated her with so much care, and sent daily pictures and updates that gave me so much comfort and peace of mind. They’re kind, reliable, professional, and always quick to respond. I trust them completely with Zoe and will definitely reach out to them again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and trustworthy pet sitters!”
“Heather was very quick to respond when I was looking for a dog sitter. She is very responsive and always kept me updated! My dog had a little upset stomach and she did give him some pumpkin puree :) I would definitely rebook with Heather and highly recommend!!”
“Donnie rocks! From our meet and greet, to boarding our German Shepherd for over a week, to picking him back up, it all went so awesome! Donnie gave us great feedback on what he observed, good and not so good, and how to work with him. He has a great set up for the dogs! We were relaxed the entire time. Will definitely always use him in the future.”
“I couldn't have for a better sitter. Julia was so communicative, sending frequent pictures and updates. Jake had such a good time and we trust Julia and her family to take care of him.”
“Dayna is very responsive and friendly. She took awesome care of my pup Moxie and sent daily updates. I’m pretty sure Moxie didn’t want to come home because she had so much fun getting all the cuddles, attention and playtime with the other dog. I highly recommend choosing Dayna for your sitting needs. I will definitely contact her again the next time I need a sitter”
“Veska and her husband took great care of George! She sent lots of updates with pictures on how George was doing and was very accommodating with my late request when my other dog sitter had to cancel due to sickness. George loved staying with them!”
“Nicole was absolutely amazing! It was our first time not using family, but she made it feel like thet were with family. We got daily updates and pictures. Excellent feedback at pickup. Most of all, peace of mind that they were with someone who would love them during our absence. Highly recommend 🥰”
