“Catherine was so sweet with my dog. She kept up with her energy and gave her lots of swims/walks on the beach. There was such a calm energy in the house. Daisy felt right at home 🩷”
“Lisa and Michael are wonderful. Their love of animals is clear and they immediately put us at ease. They watched our dog for 10 nights, and we received photos and updates several times each day. We could tell that he was well cared for and happy. We are so glad that we found them!”
“Kathy was an amazing pet sitter. My dog stayed for three nights and had the best time playing with her sweet dog Ollie. Kathy was incredibly attentive and kind. My dog had hurt her leg prior to going over there and she even took the time to gently massage her leg ( after checking with me) It really meant a lot knowing my dog was so cared for uncomfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kathy again and highly recommend her!”
“John was terrific! We called last minute and he was responsive, accommodating, helped us out on short notice. His place is beautiful and was spacious enough for our Aussies. Lots of room to roam and have fun.”
“John was an excellent boarder for Milo. He took such great care of him and kept me updated throughout his stay by sending pictures and text messages. He also made sure Milo received his medication on time and as scheduled. Thank you, John, for giving me peace of mind and reassurance knowing that Milo was in such good hands. I truly appreciate the love and care you gave him!”
“Apryl was so kinda to help us out in a very last minute pinch! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with! She had a great yard and home set-up for overnight doggy guests and our pup loved the one-on-one attention she got from Apryl. When it was time to pick our pup up she didn’t want to leave! We would definitely book Apryl again!”
“A big thank you to Vincent and his girlfriend for treating my dog with love and care. I received photos and updates on BUDDY wellbeing regularly. As a result, I was able to enjoy my 60th birthday celebration, in part knowing that BUDDY was in good hands. I highly recommend booking with Vincent.”
“Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.”
“Patrick and Karyn took good care of my dog. They treat her like their own pup with daily walks and play time. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands.”
“Maggie had a great experience with Maria. I knew she was well taken care of and came home well rested and happy. Great and fast communication. Shares photos during the visit for peace of mind. Will use again!”
“I left my 4 year old boxer Zeus with Donna for 8 days. It was winter recess & the first time we left him with someone he was not overly familiar with. Donna was friendly and responsive to my text messages so we set up a greet and meet to visit her in person. I noticed she was extremely knowledgeable about dogs and their behavior. I felt Zeus would be in very good hands after our meet and greet and locked the date in. Donna let me know she had a few other dogs she was also watching that week, but knew with her knowledge he would be fine and perhaps beneficial since Zeus loves playing with other dogs. After a week long play date Zeus is now tired but very content . It was nice knowing I could go away and not have to worry about my pup! I will be using Donna again in future. Thank you Donna :)”

“Stephanie is a reliable and super responsible dog sitter. We had to leave our dog for a week and knowing our dog was in the care of Stephanie really put us to ease. We are so grateful to her!”
About: Hey, I’m Janelle. Some people call me Nelly. I’ve grown up around all types of animals and just want to be an extra hand for anyone who needs someone reliable to watch their pets. I have a lot of experience with senior pets. I took care of my own cat who lived to be 20, and I still regularly help my sister out with her 18 yr old diabetic old lady cat, so I’m totally comfortable with daily medicine or specialized routines. I also really love being active and getting outside, so I'm always down to take your dogs out to get their energy out. Or even walking your cat if you are that type! I'll treat your pets like they're my own. Let me know if you need any help!
“Amanda is amazing! Had an impromptu emergency that kept me away from home and Amanda was available with extremely short notice. She’s communicative and attentive. She offered a flexible schedule when requested.”
“Gerri took very good care of my cats during the week we were traveling. She is very friendly and love animals and my 2 cats liked her, too. I'll ask her again next time. Thank you for your support. And see you later. Thank you again!”
About: I've always been such a huge animal lover and always took care of my own cats, dogs, guinea pigs and birds. I used to watch my family members pets when they would go away and feed them per special instructions and stayed with them as long as I could so they were never lonely. I work full time now but I make my own schedule! I'll be able to be reliable and work around the needs of anyone's babies! In my clients home I always have respect and take care of not only the pets but the home and property when I'm there always.
“Asked Madison to come back an extra day and she was super understanding and accommodating! Would definitely call upon her again if/when i need someone trustworthy to take care of my cat😁”
“Giana was fantastic! This was my first time using Rover and it was a last minute request, but she made the whole process smooth and easy. She even offered a meet and greet, and Malvin took to her immediately. Giana was incredibly attentive to Malvin, sent regular picture updates, and responded to my messages quickly. I highly recommend her to watch your fur baby and will definitely reach out to her again the next time I go away!”
“Ashley is the most amazing and sweetest sitter. So thankful to meet her because she helped me very timely and with so much grace. Thor loves her so much. We can’t wait to work with her again.”
“Julie took great care of our cat while we were out of town for Christmas. She was great about keeping us up to date on how things were going. She was also very flexible with scheduling, responded quickly to my messages, and was always very friendly in her communication with me. Highly recommend and we will definitely be using her again.”
“WE LOVE YOU! Thank you so much for taking care of our little Swetie Pie! You are a treasure! We are so happy we found you and we are so happy to relax leaving her in your care!”
“This was my first time using Isabella (Bella) and I was more than satisfied. I have four cats on four different types of food and two are on medications more than once a day. Bella followed the instructions for my complicated household perfectly and was in communication about updates the entire time. Additionally, one of my cats on medication gave Bella a very hard time. She was still able to medicate him which was no easy feat. I dont think anyone but a true, licensed professional like Bella would have been able to. I have the utmost trust and the highest rating for Bella, who succeeded my expectations. Bella is a reliable, compassionate sitter and I'd use her again in a heartbeat.”
“Sam took great care of my cat Elsa while I was away. She gave her the medicine she needed and made sure she ate. Her litter box was clean and I enjoyed the pictures of Elsa every day.”
“Kelly is the cat whisperer (for dogs too!!) My 7 month of age ‘Cornish Rex” Luna loved Kelly for knowing everything about kitten/cat life. She provided play time, kitty meal time, along width affection. And during Luna rest time her liter boxes and dishes were cleaned. Kelly also advised me regarding a skin care question I had about Luna too. She is very professional, reliable and experienced with dog/puppy care too. I highly recommend her with confidence.”

I would love an opportunity to care for your furry family member. Send me a message and set up a free meet and greet!! We welcome small dogs that would be compatible with our 2 little fur babies.

Our house is very dog friendly and the pups have stair access to the couch and can sleep on our bed. We have a small home in a dog friendly community. We do not have a fenced yard but provide several walks and play time on our large gated deck. Inside is a safe environment with lots of toys and comfy places to rest.
About: Hi! I'm Cat, and it is my literal pleasure to care for your dog, cat, lizard, bunny, or parrot! What you can expect from me: -Fast, clear, and concise executive-level communication. -Deep breed-specific knowledge of behavior underpinned by my time as a vet receptionist -High quality photos -Easy, flexible scheduling -Complete focus and attention to detail -Genuine joy and enthusiasm to care for your pet In my previous life, I was a design program manager within corporate tech (Meta, Comcast, Pinterest), and I'm thrilled and privileged to pivot into pet care. I have cared for dogs of every size, flavor, and temperament. I have extensive experience training dogs, and quite frankly, I've watched a whole lot of Westminster dog show. In particular, I have specialized experience with shy or nervous dogs and will provide them the space and understanding needed to relax and feel comfortable. I am happy to walk or jog to help burn canine energy. Not afraid to get down in the dirt and play! I have been deeply involved in cat rescue since 2020, when I began working remotely. I have fostered dozens of cats over the years. This includes kittens with complex medical issues. I am very capable at medicating cats and kittens as well as identifying when a cat may be feeling unwell. When you board with me, your pet will not be left alone for more than 1 hour. I only board pets from one household at a time and provide dedicated personal care. When your baby is at my house, they are family. Feel free to reach out with any additional questions. I'm currently working remotely doing project-based contract work, so I have plenty of availability and scheduling flexibility. If boarding or house-sitting, I will be fully available and no pet will be left alone longer than an hour. I have a friendly chihuahua mix (8 lbs) and 2 cats, but if needed, I have plenty of room to give everyone their own space. I have an unfenced backyard with plenty of room to romp. Dogs will always be leashed or tethered in yard.
“Five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They are incredibly caring and clearly very attuned to the dogs in their care, especially how they interact with one another and what each dog needs to feel comfortable. I really appreciated the photos throughout the day. It was obvious from every one of them that my dog was relaxed, engaged, and having a genuinely good time. I felt completely confident that he was in wonderful hands and would absolutely book with them again.”

I’m looking to add or even change my career and do something that I want to get up and do and put my all into something for once that I enjoy . I’ve always wanted to work with animals I have so many and they bring such light into my life I can’t ever not have a pet,I’m Better and complete with them Yes, I have a fenced in yard.

I love that I was able to get a run down on how he was during the day it made me feel very confident that she was watching him and caring for him like we would at home .

She was incredibly friendly, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure our pup was well cared for. Traveling with a dog can sometimes be stressful, but Cindy made us feel completely at ease and was so kind and accommodating. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond, communicates well, and truly cares about your dog, I can’t recommend Cindy enough.”
About: I have hands-on experience working with animals through both therapy dog work and my previous experience as an assistant to a veterinary technician. This has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and how to handle pets with care, patience, and confidence. I’m comfortable supporting pets with different needs and always focus on making them feel safe, calm, and well cared for. Working from home allows me to be a consistent, calming presence for your pet throughout the day whether at my home or yours. I truly enjoy spending that time with them—whether it’s going on walks, giving them attention, or just being nearby so they don’t feel alone. I know every pet is different, so I follow their lead and make sure they feel comfortable and secure, whether they’re full of energy or prefer a more relaxed, quiet routine. I keep your pet’s routine consistent while providing attentive care, companionship, and a calm presence. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet time, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I am also a photographer which could lead to getting some great photos while you are away!
“My dog spent the whole day with Eliana yesterday and we couldn’t have been happier with the car he received. She sent pictures, kept me updated on how he’s doing, and gave him so much love. Will definitely use her again in the future!!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, and I'm surrounded by them every day. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, rats and more. Every dog I've owned has been personally trained by me, giving me hands-on experience with behavior, structure, and individualized care. I live on a small farm and work from home, so I'm available throughout the day for animal's needs. Caring for horses, dogs, and cats is already a part of my daily routine, making pet care a natural part of my lifestyle. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs that can provide companionship for social dogs. I'm experienced in safely managing separate spaces if a dog prefers to be alone of is not dog-friendly, ensuring every pet gets plenty of personalized care, attention, and outdoor time.
“Want to rest easy your pup is in good hands? Look no further you can rest easy that your dog will be well taken care of and happy here! My boy is special needs. I'm usually only tolerate one sitter where he's not immediately throwing up when he gets in the car from stress!!!! Cindy and Sonnie are caring and attentive and have a beautifully clean home that is super dog friendly! 10 out of 10 would absolutely recommend!!!”
“Jeff is more than a dog walker….he’s a dog whisperer. Henry learned so much in a matter of hours. If you are willing to be open to Jeff’s suggestions, even the most experienced dog owners will learn something new…getting a fresh perspective on handling our 150lb Great Dane pup was well worth the time! Thank you Jeff!”
About: Since I was young, I have taken care of a variety of dogs. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, and playing with them. I have also been with puppies that were in the process of being potty trained. I have a flexible schedule. Please reach out to confirm my availability for specific days and times. I am also willing to take last minute bookings. In both my home and yours, I will make sure your dog is comfortable by ensuring they get to do all the things they love!
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I currently own four dogs: two adult Belgian Malinois, a German Shepherd puppy, and a senior Shih Tzu mix. I have crate trained and potty trained multiple puppies and am familiar with the time, patience, and consistency required for successful training. Through caring for both high-energy working breeds and senior dogs, I have experience managing different exercise needs, routines, temperaments, and levels of care. I am committed to providing a safe, structured, and positive environment for every dog in my care. I am home most of the time and provide full-time care for the dogs in my home. Because I am available throughout the day, dogs receive regular supervision. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely go outside for potty breaks and exercise. I am comfortable reinforcing crate training when needed and believe crates are a valuable tool for safety and routine. My own dogs are crate trained and are crated when they cannot be directly supervised to ensure their safety and prevent unwanted behaviors. I provide a structured, safe, and supervised environment while making sure each dog receives plenty of attention, care, and opportunities to play and relax.
“Theresa was a great dog sitter very attentive and caring. She sent updates, which I really appreciated, and my pup was clearly happy and well taken care of.She didn’t even want to leave when I picked her up! I would definitely use her again.”
“Melissa was wonderful. Although I treat my Pug like a human, he's a little spoiled, Melissa comforted me with a few photos throughout my dogs stay with her. My Gabe has a new furry friend & he is looking forward returning in the future. Grateful Dog Mom, Rosemary.”

About: I have a passion for working with dogs (and cats), especially in training with them. I have 10+ years experience of working, riding, and training horses!

I am available for most holidays as well! I try and leave everything as if I was never even there! I love brushing cats/dogs so I might just spend time doing that as well! I try and be as comforting as possible to keep the pets routine the same as well.
“Julia went above and beyond to accommodate our very socially anxious dog. He’s always extremely excited to see her again, she stayed with him to calm him down when he was howling out of loneliness, she always replies quickly, and she’ll even bake cookies for the owners. Best experience we’ve had on this app”

I just want to be an extra hand for anyone who needs someone reliable to watch or walk their pups.I really love being active and getting outside, so I'm always down to take your dogs out for a good walk or run to keep them entertained and get their energy out.

Whether you need a midday check-in, a quick walk, or someone to hang out with them while you're at work, I have plenty of open windows to make it happen. I only watch pets at the client’s house, I don’t do any boarding at my own place. When I’m at your house, I just focus on keeping your pet’s routine exactly how they like it so they don't get stressed out. I'm always super careful about keeping doors locked and making sure no quick cats or dogs try to slip out past me. I'll follow whatever instructions you leave for food, walks, or medicine, and I’ll send you updates and pictures so you know everything is good.
“Madison is great! Great communication, followed all the steps needed to properly walk Enzo and went above and beyond to ensure my dog was taken care of.

I would highly recommend Madison and would definitely use her services again in the future.”

About: I’ve owned and cared for four dogs of my own, giving each one consistent love, structure, and attention. I regularly take shelter dogs out for walks, playtime, toys, and treats to brighten their day. I’ve been a dog-lover since I was young, and I often dogsit for friends and family, giving every pup the same patient, reliable care I give my own. I work full time, but I’m consistently available every day between 4pm and 7pm. That window fits perfectly into my routine, and I’m always ready for walks, drop-ins, or evening care during those hours. Safety and trust are always my first priorities. During drop-ins and walks, I follow your pet’s routine exactly as you prefer; feeding, water, meds, or crate needs included. I keep a close eye on gates, doors, and leashes, and I make sure every walk is calm, controlled, and enjoyable. I always send updates, photos, and notes so you feel fully informed and confident while you’re away. Your pet gets my full attention, patience, and care every visit.

About: I've taken care of multiple dogs and cats in my neighborhood. I watch dogs for my family and friends when they go away. I walk, feed, and play with their pets. I work part time, three days a week until 4 pm. I can walk dogs after work or any other day. I am available on the weekends. I currently do not accept boarding requests. When I am caring for dogs in their home I give them lots of love and attention and play. I take them on walks as needed or determined by their physical abilities. I am attentive and here to give your pet companionship!
“Kurt walked Henry and Hudson every day for 6 weeks and was amazing with them. They are farm dogs most of the year and not perfect on a leash. But within a day or two with Kurt they became model citizens ! They looked forward to their time with him every day. Kurt was 100% reliable and really a pleasure to see every day. 5 stars!”
About: I have had a dog at home all my life and have been volunteering at animal shelters for the past 4 years where I would walk dogs and socialize cats and dogs. I am a college student and have a completely free schedule over the summer. I can come on same day notice and can stay over night. I can’t offer my home for boarding but I can stay over at your house and am responsible and have lived alone and can clean do laundry and other tasks to keep the home clean for when you return. I can also come over and bring your dog out for walks.
“Amanda is absolutely conscientious and dependable, but what REALLY shines is the calm demeanor and gentle nature that won over our old but still a bit rambunctious Mac immediately. Dogs always seem to know who to trust and he wasn't wrong. Sad to see her go, but we'll most definitely hire her again!”
“Wow! Amazing couple… very professional and thorough. They did everything by the book and went beyond the call of duty. Seriously, they’re wonderful. Plan on using their services again. Thank you!”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs (and other animals!) for many years. Family, friends, and co-workers have relied on me to watch and care for their pets whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, even taking them to the vet. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages, from senior bull mastiffs to pugs under a year old. There is no dog too big or too small because they’re all perfect to me. I’ve also found lost dogs and helped them return to their owners! I have experience caring for anxious dogs, blind dogs, deaf dogs, dogs with mobility issues, and dogs that require medication. Other animals I’ve taken care of include: cats, parrots, guinea pigs, fish, rabbits, and hamsters. Pets are so precious, they’re such an important source of joy in their family’s lives so it’s such a privilege to be trusted with their care!! :) Pet sitting is currently my full time job, so I have lots of time to give your animals the special care and attention they deserve! I have a fenced in yard which is perfect for dogs to run around in. I also have a car so I’m able to take dogs to the dog park or dog beaches nearby (if that’s something they would enjoy). At a client’s house I still follow any guidance/schedule given to me. In between I typically take the dog’s lead. I’m at their house so it’s important to me that I respect their space (and the clients above all)! I like to take their cues to make sure that their sense of routine isn’t disrupted.

“Joselle and her family were great! She kept us updated with pictures of our dog Scout walking, playing and relaxing. Scout came home healthy and happy! We highly recommend Joselle for all your pets needs!”
“A big thank you to Vincent and his girlfriend for treating my dog with love and care. I received photos and updates on BUDDY wellbeing regularly. As a result, I was able to enjoy my 60th birthday celebration, in part knowing that BUDDY was in good hands. I highly recommend booking with Vincent.”
“Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.”
“Christine was a great host, she accommodated all the special needs of our old lady. The big grassy yard is a huge plus as our pup is an outdoor lover. Thanks Christine, we'll be back!”
“Patrick and Karyn took good care of my dog. They treat her like their own pup with daily walks and play time. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands.”
“Maggie had a great experience with Maria. I knew she was well taken care of and came home well rested and happy. Great and fast communication. Shares photos during the visit for peace of mind. Will use again!”
“Samantha and her family were wonderful. They were reassuring and kept in contact with us through pictures of our Merlin. We were apprehensive about leaving him because he is an indoor-outdoor cat. They had no issues with that and kept him safe and loved. Highly recommend!”
