“We will always call on Suzanne when we need day care or overnight stays for our furry kid. He loves to stay at Suzanne's and runs back and forth in the car when he knows we're going to her home to 'play with doggies'.”

“Thanks for providing such great care for Chewie! I loved the photo updates. We were really able to enjoy our time away, knowing he was in good hands. Such loving and competent care! We will be back.”

We had a meet and great a couple weeks ahead so she could meet my little pup and meet her two dogs as well they all got along fine and during her time there Tova, my pup had so much fun and I could tell she took real good care of her, sent me a few pics most of time I was not on WiFi. I would have her watch my little girl again.”


“I am so thankful to have found J, and can’t say enough great things! She sent me a bunch of adorable photo updates of my pup having a fabulous time out in the big yard, or cuddling inside with her newfound best friend Gus. Jean obviously really loves dogs, has a big home with space for large dogs, and is a wonderful sitter! We will definitely be visiting again!!!”

“Julie and Barry are always so wonderful with our little Cadi. She is very loving but not the easiest to care for, but they figured her out 😊 She feels so at home at their house.”

“I had an unexpected business trip and needed a dog sitter for Panda. I am extremely happy with Bonnie services of taking care of my dog Panda. Great communication and daily updates with photos. It gave me peace of mind knowing that my dog was being well cared for and loved. Bonnie noticed my dog had symptoms of a UTI and bought Cranberry Relief Soft Chews Plus Echinacea & Homeopet Leaks No More to help support a healthy urinary tract and overall bladder function. I will book Bonnie again in the future. Thanks again Bonnie, for showing so much love, care, and attention to Panda, it is most appreciated. Thank you.”


“Liz was great! She was so kind and easy to work with, and you can tell she really loves dogs. She has three dogs of her own, so she's definitely experienced and knows how to handle different personalities. She kept me updated throughout my dogs's stay with photos and messages, which made me feel super comfortable while I was away. I could tell my dog was in good hands and was so thankful for the peace of mind. If you're looking for a sitter who's reliable, sweet and great with dogs, I'd definitely recommend Liz!”

“Keelan and Sabrina took great care of our dog, Bingo. It was Bingo’s first boarding experience, so we were a little nervous, but they helped to ease our worry by doing a meet and greet first and then providing daily communication with updates and photos while we were gone. Bingo had a blast playing with Minty and Loki. We would definitely book with Keelan again!”

“Nadine took SUCH good care of my pups! They loved their time with her. The backyard is amazing… so much room to roam. And her pets got along so well with mine. Lots of communication and photos. It was so nice to know my babies were being loved on so much while I was away. I’d definitely recommend Nadine!!!!”

“Our boy Kai had a fantastic time with Cassie for a weekend! The picture, video and text updates put our minds at ease knowing our fur baby was well cared for while we were out of town. Cassie provided great feedback and ideas after being around him for the weekend and we are beyond grateful. Would not hesitate to book Cassie again for any of her provided service.”

“Enchi, our rescue beagle felt right at home in Angelique’s and Francisco’s home. Their small home is setup for family and furry friend comfort. Our Enchi loves to snuggle; therefore, he fit right in. Angelique sent updates and pictures during our week long vacation. It was comforting to see how Enchi was adapting. Angelique and Francisco offer a safe and loving home. They are two individuals that I would definitely entrust to care for our precious beagle again. Thank you Angelique!…and Francisco! :)”


“Thank you for pampering Lulu while we were out of town. She obviously received excellent care and lots of love. We hope to have her stay with you again in the future. Tim T.”

“I had a wonderful experience with Summer checking in and visiting my young and shy kitty Casper! She was always on time or early, and her communication was and is excellent. She sent updates with pictures and videos, and I had total peace of mind knowing Casper was in good hands while I was away. She is so wonderful, she brought little gifts and treats for Casper! I trust and recommend Summer, and I would definitely book her again in the future! 🫶🏼”

“Shianne was great. I felt very comfortable leaving my cat in her hands. She was very friendly and personable. She was flexible with instructions, reliable and responsible. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future.”

About: I've loved cats for longer than I can remember - and I already know I love yours! I've had my own kitties for 6 years, and I've been taking care of others' cats for even longer, from young kittens to grumpy elders. I can give most kinds of oral and topical medications comfortably if your kitty needs any, and I have a decent amount of behavioral experience. Some of my own cats have been highly anxious or prone to aggression, and I've done long-term sits with cats still being gradually introduced, so I've seen and handled a lot! I'm also no stranger to litter box issues, and am more than happy to scrub any carpet. Bring on the enzyme cleaner!
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, having cats growing up and later volunteering with dogs at rescue orgs. My time as a training class assistant for Puppy Manners and New Dog Basics at the San Francisco SPCA gave me valuable skills in positive reinforcement training, socialization, and handling dogs of all temperaments. Beyond dogs and cats, I also have experience with horses, having owned and leased several. I’m comfortable with feeding, turnout, mucking stalls, brushing, and general equine care, making me a well-rounded caregiver for multi-pet households. What sets me apart is my ability to care for pets at all life stages—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior pets needing extra patience and comfort. Whether it’s structured walks, reinforcing good manners, or providing a calm and loving presence, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. With a deep understanding of pet behavior across species and a passion for ensuring their happiness and well-being, I go beyond basic care to provide engaging, enriching, and compassionate pet companionship. After our Husky mix’s TPLO surgery in Fall 2024, I’ve decided to make pet care my main focus. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and this shift allows me to dedicate my time and energy to providing top-quality care for pets in my community. With a flexible schedule, I’m available for daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and customized care based on each pet’s needs. Whether it’s a midday walk, feeding and playtime, or extra TLC for pets recovering from surgery, I tailor my services to fit both routine and special care requirements. My experience with dogs, cats, and even horses means I’m comfortable handling a variety of schedules—from structured training sessions to free-spirited outdoor adventures. No matter the time of day, I ensure pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my clients’ homes. At my home, we have a fully fenced yard, providing a secure and spacious area for dogs to play and explore. Your pup will also have built-in companionship with our two friendly dogs, ensuring plenty of socialization and fun. For exercise and enrichment, we have scenic trails nearby, perfect for peaceful walks in the woods—giving dogs a chance to sniff, explore, and enjoy the great outdoors. In my clients’ homes, I respect each pet’s unique routine and environment, providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care. Whether it’s reinforcing training, maintaining feeding schedules, or ensuring a calm presence while you're away, I treat every pet like they’re my own. No matter the setting, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free, and enriching experience for pets—so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands.
“Kaylee was amazing! She spent time with our kitties, played with them, fed them, and even gave them treats that her cat didn’t love. She was a clear communicator and reliable! We’d have her watch our cats any time!”

“Thank you Emily for taking care of our little rascals this week. Thank you for going out of your way to Google plant toxicity when our kittens decided to eat the succulents. And for going back for an extra check in when they played hide and seek. Your check-ins made is feel reassured while we were away.”

“Matthew did an amazing job coming by our house to check on our cat and gather our mail. He contacted us with updates on how everything was. Would definitely have him house sit again in the future.”

“Rachel took care of my house and cat for two days. She followed all my instructions and sent several reassuring photos of the cat while I was away. The cat and I are entirely pleased with her services and I recommend her.”

“Damita did a great job watching our kitties again! My stubborn, doesn't-like-anyone kitty was so cuddly with her! The house is always left nice and clean. She sends picture updates which I really appreciate too. I will continue to use her for my kitties!”

“Sophia was able to accept a last minute booking for me when my friend got sick and couldn’t check on my kitty! She was responsive and followed my directions exactly. Will definitely book her again!”


About: I’ve grown up with cats around. I got my first cat at age 8 and he was with me till I was 22. I understand that not all cats like to be loved on and want their space. I have helped administer medication and take care of cat and all animals since childhood. If you need special care instructions I can help and follow them to a T. I now work in the medical field and so I’m comfortable with medication administration of any kind, that being oral, topical, or injectable.
“Christine was great for this first time Rover user. Great communication and pictures, she made the process easy for me overall. I would absolutely use Christine for overnight cat watching!”


“Olivia took great care of our cat Sophie! She was thorough in her home visit to ensure she was well prepared to care for Sophie and was extremely personable. She provided the cutest check-in photos and updates each day we were gone. When we got home she left our house exactly how we left it. We would rebook with her any time.”

“Our favorite people to watch our dog. He loves going to daycare with them every week and they treat him like part of the family. We are so appreciative of their care.”

“Jinx had a blast and it was great to get updates throughout the day. Since this was her first time at daycare and we haven’t spent much time apart, I was nervous, especially considering the virus going around. Cassie made me feel very comfortable that jinx was in safe hands and covering all the bases to make sure no one gets ill. Jinx can’t wait for her next visit”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kelsi! From day one, it was clear how genuinely caring, patient, and attentive she is with my puppy Lucy. She treats her like her own, making sure she’s safe, happy, well-exercised, and loved. I always receive great updates and photos, which gives me total peace of mind knowing Lucy is in such good hands. Her reliability, communication, and obvious love for dogs truly sets her apart. I am so grateful to have found someone I trust completely and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog—especially puppies!”

“Chelsea has been awesome with my pups, and they love playing with her dogs as well. Their stay has been great. They’re tuckered out and happy every day I’ve picked them up after daycare 💞”

“Nicole and Colton are always welcoming towards me and my labradoodle. They have a great yard and send fun pictures! They also accommodate my last minute requests! AND, they blow off the dust before I pick Rosie up. 🐾”

“Matthew had excellent communication, and took great care of Lucy. I appreciated getting a mid-day update with photos. Lucy was tired and content. We would definitely return!”


“With lots of young children attending, our relatives hosting the Christmas Day gathering asked that no guests bring their pets. Rather than leave our little guy by himself for that many hours, we turned to Rover - and Julie came to our rescue! We had done a meet-and-greet previously, so I felt that Django and Aspen would spend most of their time playing and chasing each other, and by all reports that's what they did. I must thank Julie again for taking care of my pup, and on Christmas to boot! I would not hesitate to recommend Julie as a dog-sitter.”

“We are really pleased with our dog’s first stay with Peter and Missy! We appreciated being able to meet them and their sweet dog, Gunner, prior to booking with them. Peter and Missy seem very caring, conscientious and knowledgeable about dog care. After our dog’s visit, we were pleasantly surprised to receive information about our dog’s activities (e.g. map showing where he went on a walk, at what time and distance) and loved the photos! We appreciated them taking such great care of our dog!”


“Damon has been a life saver for my daycare needs. He is reliable, personable, and communicative. I work full time and have an active GSD who needs adequate mental stimulation and play. By the time I pick her up, she’s ready to eat and relax for the rest of the evening. He has a spacious and clean backyard for the dogs to roam/play around in without it feeling too crowded. I always get pics and updates thru out the day to make me feel reassured she’s safe and having a great time. Would absolutely recommend Damon and his services.”

“Tara did a fantastic job with Huey! She was easy to communicate with and make a plan, even though I asked her to dog sit less with less than 24 hours notice. She sent lots of pictures throughout the day to ensure that Huey was having a good time. They even went on a long walk together! When I picked him up he was happy and content. I can tell that Huey was very comfortable with Tara, and I would highly recommend her caretaking!”

“Amanda, thank you so much for your sweet care and understanding of Sunny today. The pictures tell the story of how comfortable he was with you and your family. With time, I know he'll be playing fetch without hesitation! Hope to have day #2 next week! Nanette & Sunny🐶❤️”

“Thank you for watching Lilith! This was our first time using Rover, I was pretty anxious after drop off but your messages reassured me that things would be ok.”

“Maggie was thoughtful and patient with Stella. She let Stella warm up to her in her own time and let her be independent. We appreciate the care and understanding Maggie had of Stella. We’ll be back.”

“Couldn’t have been happier with Tommy and the care he provided for Juniper. He’s very experienced and it shows. He sent pictures of junipers stay and other updates. Will definitely be booking more stays with Tommy.”


“Ava is an amazing host! This was Dexter's second time with her, although a much shorter stay, Dexter came back home wiped out from all of the playing. I feel very comfortable whenever Dexter's over there playing because I know he's getting love and attention! Highly recommended.”

“Veronica took excellent care of our 13.5 year old Penny Lane. She took her on a walk with her pups and sent multiple photos throughout the day which we so appreciated. Veronica is a conscientious person who understands dog behavior. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Veronica to look after Penny Lane again in the future. Thank you, Veronica!”

About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs in the house, even one gerbil! Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to care for their animals since the age of 12, and I have experience administering medication and feel comfortable with any extra care your pet may require. I am a freelancer and my last contract ended recently. I am appreciating this downtime, which means I have an open schedule to provide care throughout the day for your pets. I would like to meet your pet in their own environment to keep continuity, and am happy to set up a check-in schedule with you for updates about your pet’s day and routine, including pictures if requested.
“Shianne is an exceptional dog walker! She's incredibly dependable, flexible, and has fantastic communication. She's also wonderfully sweet with our two corgis, and always makes sure they get a great workout. Our Lulu, who is obsessed with greeting people on her walks, especially loves her time with Shianne. She's my go-to person for our pups!”

About: I love every pet I've ever met, from my childhood hamsters to my three silly cats - and I already know I love yours! I've had my own kitties for 6 years, and I've been taking care of others' cats, dogs, and small animals for even longer, from playful puppies to grumpy feline queens of the house. I can give most kinds of oral and topical medications comfortably if your pet needs any, and I have a decent amount of behavioral experience with anxious pets. I'm also no stranger to incontinence issues, and am more than happy to scrub any carpet. Bring on the enzyme cleaner! I'm in a transitional period right now, so I am happy to spend as much time with your pet as needed to keep their regular routine. As the owner of more than one anxious cat, I know just how important it is to keep your pet's environment as close to normal as possible while you're gone. I'm more than happy to work with you to make your house as close to routine as possible, from feeding times, play styles, or even someone to pounce on at 3am!
“Stephanie was great! She gave great updates and gave me piece of mind that Blue was taken care of and got some energy out while I was at work, which ment I could come home to a little less hyper puppy!”

About: I’ve have one Doberman that my dad made sure I was apart of the their training and raising. So I pick up poop every week, wash them when they’re dirty, walk them every other day since she’s about 5-6 months old so has a lot of energy. I also take her to vet appointments and I help feed her dinner. I’m very experienced with big dogs and little ones because I have friends and family with dogs that range from chihuahuas to cane corsos/giant schnauzers/Hungarian sheepdog. I can do walks and pet-sit after school. On the weekends I can stay overnight if needed. I’m willing to adjust depending on the situation! A bunch of butt rubs and back scratches! I like to really connect with the dogs so if they prefer silence or tv that’s fine! Also feeding them on time and getting them out to use the bathroom on time helps create that trust and bond! I can play with the dogs to their content since I’m young and have the energy!
“Nadine was super responsive and flexible when I needed last minute help with walking my dog. Nadine was great at communicating before and during the walk if there were any questions and being patient with my stubborn boy. Highly recommend!”


About: I worked at a vet clinic for 3.5 years but due to life changes I now work at a pet store and petsit to continue to work with animals while I work towards my goal of working in vet med again. I’m reliable with my own transportation and am very knowledgeable in proper pet care. I am communicative, compassionate, and attentive to animals and their needs. I have been my own friends’ and family’s pet sitter for the past 5 years and I treat every animal as if they were my own while in my care. My whole life revolves around animals; I have 5 cats of my own and have fostered over 20 animals ranging from cats of all ages, dogs, and guinea pigs. I also work directly with animals at my job and am looking to continue that path. I have multiple rooms in my home to separate the animals in my care if needed, I have access to professional services if an emergency were to arise while also having knowledge of what to look for in with different medical conditions that can be present in animals. I have a good understanding of animal behavior and I understand their needs.
“Emily has been a wonderful and reliable dog walker for our Labrador puppy, with dozens of visits/walks from true baby puppyhood to adolescence. We feel very comfortable with her and she has always been communicative and flexible.”

About: Hi! I'm Nate, and if you've got a dog who needs a walk, a cat who needs a buddy, or a pup who just wants a solid hang — you've found the right human. I didn't just grow up around animals — I grew up with them. We're talking dogs, cats, birds, and full-on farm animals. At any given point in my childhood, our place was basically a petting zoo with a roof. I've hand-fed, cleaned up after, played with, and genuinely loved more species than most people have on their bucket list. These days I'm a proud dog owner myself, and I've also fostered for multiple rescues and organizations — including the Puerto Rico Dog Fund and Many Miles from Home Animal Shelter — so I know firsthand what it means to trust someone with your fur baby. What does all of that experience mean for your pup? It means I'm calm in chaos, patient with personalities, and I actually enjoy watching animals just... be themselves. Whether your dog is a zoomies-at-6am type or a "I will sniff this one blade of grass for 45 seconds" type — I'm here for all of it. My goal is simple: to be the person your dog loses their mind over when they hear my car pull up. Walks, hangouts, check-ins — whatever your pet needs, I bring the energy, the patience, and the genuine love of animals to back it up. Your furry friend won't just be in good hands. They'll be having the time of their life. 🐕 I work from home, so your pet gets real quality time — not just a quick pop-in between meetings! I'm also an early riser, so mornings mean walks, fresh air, and getting those zoomies out before most people even hit snooze. Whether I'm at your place or mine, I follow your rules — feeding schedules, routines, preferred spots on the couch, all of it. You know your pet best and I'm here to keep things consistent and comfortable for them. If your pet stays with me, they'll have a fully fenced backyard to roam and my 4-year-old smaller German Shepherd to show them the ropes — she's basically the ultimate icebreaker.
About: Hello! My name is Rahul (say the “h”). I have had experiences with all kind of dogs. I feel there no need for a preference. Every dog can be loved. I know how hard it is to find a good sitter for your pets and that is why I wanted to do this.I've always had dog(s) in my household growing up. I've seen them all, hyper dogs, lazy dogs, mean dogs, social dogs, and dogs that think that they're human. In my experience in dealing with all of these personalities I've noticed one trait that is essential in dog-care, patience. Patience is something that I have no shortage of, I've seen it all. I am are looking forward to helping you and your family! Can’t wait to take care of your pet! As a full-time Doctor of Physical Therapy student, I have a structured schedule that gives me flexibility throughout the week for dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. Spending time with pets is a great way for me to take a break from studying, get outside, and stay active, so it's something I genuinely look forward to. I'm committed to being reliable, punctual, and communicative. Whether you need someone to walk your dog, check in on your pets during the day, or stay in your home while you're away on vacation, I'll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I know that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and any special instructions before caring for them. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible—from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and cuddles. I treat every home with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. For dog walks, I prioritize safe routes, secure leashing, and positive interactions with people and other animals. I always pay close attention to your dog's body language and energy level to make sure they're comfortable and having a great time. Communication is important to me, so I'll send regular updates and photos during each visit or stay. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is being cared for with patience, kindness, and genuine attention.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life! My mother was a dog breeder, meaning I have experience with puppies! I can’t remember a time when we didn’t have a dog in the house growing up, wasn’t till recently that I haven’t had a pet in the home. I’m a single mom to an animal loving 3 year old, who would be my little helper. I currently work in the medical field meaning I’m comfortable administering all kind of medications, whether that be topical, oral, or injectable medications. I have done pet sitting in the past, I have taken care of many kinds of animals, dogs, cats, horses, livestock, you name it I’ve probably taken care of it! I currently work full time, but I am home on evening and weekends, so I’m home starting Friday night to Sunday night to take your pup out as often as possible. During the week I am gone typically 12-14 hours a day, but if your pup is use to that I can make it work to let them out in the morning and then rush back to let them out once I’m home. I live in a duplex with a small fence in area that I can do quick potty breaks and then live close to walking trails for longer outside times. I have a 3 year old daughter who loves to play with animals. I also love close to parks that I can take dogs to if owner is comfortable with me transporting them. I also live close to my sister who has an active dog who loves friends to play with so that is an option if you have a high energy dog that likes friends.

About: I offer more than just pet sitting—I provide loving, attentive care that ensures your pets feel safe, comfortable, and nurtured while you're away. With hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs.

I treat every pet like family, keeping their routines, comfort, and happiness at the heart of what I do. You can count on me to keep you updated and your pet well-loved until you return. As a college student returning home for summer, pet care will be part of my daily routine through feeding, walking, grooming, and spending quality time with your pet(s). Caring for your pets in your home is a responsibility I take seriously. I tailor my approach depending on the type of service you book, always prioritizing safety, comfort, and trust.

About: I have grown up with a dog in my home as well as have been around lots of pets! Have 3 cat fur babies of my own that I adore, love dogs as well! Currently working 4, 10 hour shifts as a medical assistant so am available 3 whole days a week 2 of the days being Saturday and Sunday and my day off varies weekly but I know what days I have off each week through the end of the year I will make sure each gets play time as well as walk time across the way we have a dog park and lots of place to run!
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs in a wide range of environments—from raising my own multi-dog household to fostering rescue dogs with diverse personalities and needs. Dogs aren’t just part of my life—they shape how I live it. I currently have three dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with managing different temperaments, energy levels, and household dynamics. I understand how important structure, supervision, and reading body language are—especially when introducing new environments or routines. Through both personal experience and rescue work, I’ve developed a strong skill set in caring for senior and specialized-needs dogs. I’m comfortable administering medications, including injections and subcutaneous fluids, and have experience supporting dogs with mobility challenges, arthritis, and limb differences (including tripods). I’m also experienced with crate training, post-procedure care, and maintaining consistent routines for dogs who need additional support. I’ve worked with dogs coming from high-stress or transitional situations, so I’m especially patient with anxious, shy, or more complex personalities. I take the time to understand each dog’s needs and meet them where they are. I’m attentive, reliable, and highly tuned in to each dog’s individual needs—whether that’s active play, calm companionship, or more hands-on care. I also prioritize clear communication, so you’ll always feel updated and confident while you’re away. I’m comfortable walking dogs in a variety of environments, including neighborhoods, trails, and more natural settings. I tailor walks to your dog’s comfort level, energy, and leash skills—whether that’s a structured neighborhood walk or a slower, more exploratory outing. Safety, awareness, and control are always my priority. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are always my priority. To ensure every dog receives the level of care they deserve, I’m intentional about taking on the right fits and may ask a few questions before confirming bookings. I work a consistent weekday schedule and build my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. I’m up early for morning walks, feeding, or medications, and I return home midday to check in, let dogs out, and provide a short walk or break as needed. I’m typically home by the early evening and prioritize time for longer walks, attention, and routine. My home also has a securely fenced yard with multiple dog doors for safe, convenient access throughout the day. Weekends are more flexible, allowing for additional time, activity, and individualized care depending on your dog’s needs. Dogs in my care are treated with a high level of attention, structure, and awareness. With a multi-dog household of my own, I’m very mindful of introductions, energy levels, and group dynamics to ensure every dog feels safe and comfortable. I have a securely fenced yard with multiple dog doors for safe, consistent outdoor access, and I maintain a calm, structured environment inside the home. Dogs are always supervised during interactions, and I can easily separate or crate as needed based on temperament, routine, or owner preference. I’m equipped with crates for dogs of all sizes and have custom gating that allows me to section off areas of the home—including spaces with direct outdoor access—so each dog can have a setup that best supports their comfort and safety. I take time to understand each dog’s behavior, triggers, and needs, and I prioritize safety in all environments—whether at home, on walks, or in new settings.
“This is the second time Mara has helped me out with taking my pup on a walk while I’m at work. She is so great with my girl and sends the cutest pics and videos of their adventures. It’s wonderful having peace of mind that your furry child is well taken care of while you’re gone! She’s the best!”

“Thank you for taking care of our dogs! We have been looking for someone we can rely on in the coming weeks to help walk our dogs and feel so thankful to have found that someone in you!”

“We've been using Christine for semi-regular walks for our very nervous-yet-twerpy lab for the last few weeks, and have been absolutely thrilled to have her! Her communication is fast, thorough and reassuring, she's been super patient with our girl getting to know her, and it seems like they've been having some fun saunters through the neighborhood. Thanks so much Christine!!”

About: I’ve always known I was an animal lover, but it wasn’t until I got my very own cat at 18 that I finally recognized the great responsibility and deep bond that comes with pet ownership. I have been pet sitting on and off for 10 years and love meeting every furry friend. I have experience with senior animals as well as young, energetic puppies and kittens and am able to carry out your unique care plan. I will make sure your pet is treated with as much care and love as if they were my own.

“I am so thankful to have found J, and can’t say enough great things! She sent me a bunch of adorable photo updates of my pup having a fabulous time out in the big yard, or cuddling inside with her newfound best friend Gus. Jean obviously really loves dogs, has a big home with space for large dogs, and is a wonderful sitter! We will definitely be visiting again!!!”

“Gary and Carol are wonderful! Waldo almost jumps out of the car with excitement when we drive up to their place. They are by no means close in proximity but the drive is well worth it!”

“I had an unexpected business trip and needed a dog sitter for Panda. I am extremely happy with Bonnie services of taking care of my dog Panda. Great communication and daily updates with photos. It gave me peace of mind knowing that my dog was being well cared for and loved. Bonnie noticed my dog had symptoms of a UTI and bought Cranberry Relief Soft Chews Plus Echinacea & Homeopet Leaks No More to help support a healthy urinary tract and overall bladder function. I will book Bonnie again in the future. Thanks again Bonnie, for showing so much love, care, and attention to Panda, it is most appreciated. Thank you.”


“Liz was great! She was so kind and easy to work with, and you can tell she really loves dogs. She has three dogs of her own, so she's definitely experienced and knows how to handle different personalities. She kept me updated throughout my dogs's stay with photos and messages, which made me feel super comfortable while I was away. I could tell my dog was in good hands and was so thankful for the peace of mind. If you're looking for a sitter who's reliable, sweet and great with dogs, I'd definitely recommend Liz!”


“Leah & Chris were absolutely amazing, i was in communication with them the whole time and felt at peace leaving my dogs with them. Thank you guys so much 🐾🐾”

“Once again, Oliver had a great time and was so well taken care of. The day before our trip, Ollie had an issue with his foot and was put on several medications. Stephen's wife, Connie, made a meds chart to ensure that every dose was given on time. That wasn't something we had planned for, but they were so great about it. That really allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. Thanks so much, Stephen and Connie!”

“Holly is a new dog to us. We are still getting to know each other. I was grateful to have felt at ease during our trip. Don and Melanie were understanding of her puppyish behaviors. Holly came back to us calm and undeterred by changing settings. I will be calling on Don and Melanie in the future.”

“Our boy Kai had a fantastic time with Cassie for a weekend! The picture, video and text updates put our minds at ease knowing our fur baby was well cared for while we were out of town. Cassie provided great feedback and ideas after being around him for the weekend and we are beyond grateful. Would not hesitate to book Cassie again for any of her provided service.”


“Michelle was amazing with my puppy! It was my first time using a dog sitter and it couldn’t have been better. She was very communicative and stayed in touch during my 5 days away. I’m confident my puppy was spoiled and well taken care of!”

“Bonnie is super hospitable and accommodating . She cared for our dog who showed up at her home with a little injury and she took care of her really well. Bonnie also was attentive to Zuzu missing us.”

“We hit the jackpot with Zo and Margaret!!! My girl is timid, has a sensitive tummy, and goes on a hunger strike every time I leave. Not only did Margaret and Zo treat her like the queen she is, they loved and pampered her like their own. I came home to a relaxed pup who was hesitant to leave (why would she want to?!)! There are no words adequate enough to convey my gratitude to Zo and Margaret. Their excellent care of my girl, their timely communication, and their highly evident love of animals allowed me to relax and enjoy a trip with my family. I am forever grateful!”

“Kimo was great with Kovu! He was super communicative, provided daily updates and always checked in with me if he had specific questions to ensure Kovu was taken care of. Excited to have Kovu stay with him again!”

“Kristen has watched Watson several times, and he’s always so happy to stay with her (and he never wants to leave when it's time to pick him up)! We really appreciate the photo updates and knowing he’s so well cared for. Thanks, Kristen!”

“Veronica is very sweet. She was very nice to my dog. Her 2 dogs are very friendly and seems like my dog had a great time at Veronica’s house. I will ask her again. I do strongly recommend her to all dog owners.”


“Damon was a wonderful Rover for our girl June! We got lots of updates throughout the day, she was taken on lots of walks & activities, & she was clearly very loved in his & his partner’s care. Will definitely use Damon’s services again!”
