“Shelby went above and beyond caring for Shadow 🫶 Daily walks, lots of photo updates, and even a thoughtful card and treat at pickup - it meant so much! I could tell he was happy and well cared for the entire time, and will absolutely be booking her again in the future 😊”
“Madison took great care of Zeus and sent us fun photo updates frequently. She was very accommodating, communicative and flexible and we look forward to having her watch Zeus again during our next trip. Highly recommended!”
“Allison was amazing with our pup! Pepper loved her right away and I could tell from the meet and greet that this was a great fit. Allison was communicative, engaged and helpful with every step of setting up our dog’s boarding. She sent pictures and updates during our trip so we knew our girl was happy and cozy. We are excited to have found someone we feel so comfortable leaving our girl with and will definitely be connecting with her again in the future!”
“Can I give more than 5 stars??? First time taking our dog, Bobby Lee, to a sitter and we couldn’t possibly be any happier…and Bobby Lee too! Elizabeth kept us updated daily on how he was doing, sent pictures, and communicated and a professional and prompt manner. Elizabeth was great with Bobby Lee, even teaching him some new tricks (really it was manners). She took great care of him as if he belonged to her. We are very grateful we found Elizabeth and will continue to use her to care for Bobby Lee whenever we are out of town.”
“Our dog Prim had a great time visiting Jade's again! Jade offers just the right combination of spacious environment, doggie friends to play with, and relaxed and flexible bedtime arrangements. Prim is able to make herself right at home here. Jade is also always very responsive and attentive, and we appreciate the regular updates and photos throughout her stay - thanks again Jade!”

“Had to change sitters last minute right before a flight and Tracy was able to get me set up quickly and easily. Considering the time constraints she was very helpful! Many pictures and updates were appreciated. It seemed like my pup enjoyed his stay. Thanks again!”
“Chandra was great with our pup, Ivy! We had a last-minute change in our original booking and she was very accommodating. We got lovely updates and would definitely book with Chandra in future!”
“Miriam has watched Chowder for over a year now and she has been amazing! Chowder and her have connected so well and it’s clear that he is completely comfortable and happy around her. She is very attentive and sensitive to his needs. Very happy to continue working with her 😊”
“Joe is great with our doggos! Lets them sleep on his bed, takes them for walks, and he’s careful with giving them their medications on schedule. They had a very nice time with Joe, and we will book with him again.”
“My dog has a great time with Bradley. He seemed very happy and got plenty of attention and activity. Bradley wa great in communication, genuine affection for pups. I’d definitely look to Bradley in the future for dog sitting.”
“Gayle is the absolute best! She sends lots of update, pictures and videos and is very flexible with owner’s needs. My dog is so excited to see Gayle and her dog Sitka, he just runs in her house, he doesn’t even look back to say bye to me 😢🤩😊.”
“Thor was amazing with my cat while I was on a long vacation. Made sure he took his daily meds and I got regular photo updates! He was also very flexible and accommodating when I made a mistake in my booking and asked to a drop-off later in the day. I recommend Thor very highly.”
About: I worked at a pet boarding facility for a 7 years before I moved. I am a fast learner and choose to have the pet accept me before moving on to anything else. I shadowed groomers and vets to be sure the road I was taking would assure me happiness with animals and still plenty of time with my own animals. Working with the boarding facility I learned pets are different without there parents and can act differently around them so learning their likes and dislikes personally is a must for me. I want to make sure Pets and Parents are happy with me as help. I want both parties to feel safe, happy, and well rested when staying with me. I am currently working part-time with a flexible schedule. I would be able to come for an early morning and evening walk or adventure if needed. I have two dogs that are high energy. We often go to parks, take long walks, or swimming during hot days. I do have a kennel and a large vehicle for transport.
“Diana took wonderful care of Reggie and was thoughtful enough to send regular photos and video to let me know how things were going. Reggie had a good time and I had peace of mind know he was well cared for!”
“Jordan is seriously a dog whisperer. His energy and confidence is God send. My dog Cedar can be reactive, barking, jumping, even nipping when meeting people but with Jordan, it was like a completely different dog. Calm, relaxed, and instantly comfortable. I was in total shock. Even around another dog (which normally worries me), Cedar was in dog heaven. No issues at all. I went in nervous and left totally at ease. THANK YOU Jordan for making my vacation that much better. If you’ve got a challenging dog, Jordan is your guy, Just go with Jordan.”

“This was our first time having Alyssa as our house sitter and it was for quite a long stay. I’ve had some challenging experiences in the past, but Alyssa made me feel very secure in her ability to take care of all the animals. She was communicative, reliable and overall just had great energy about her. We feel really fortunate to have found her and we hope to use her in the future! Thank again Alyssa, we really appreciate you!”
“Morgan took wonderful care of my two cats and home while I was on vacation. I felt confident that she would follow my detailed instructions, which was a huge relief. I tend to be a worrywart about my kitties and knowing that someone reliable was taking care of them eased my anxiety. There were even a few house-type things I asked if she could help with like watering plants and getting the mail, and she was graciously willing. Morgan always responded to messages quickly and professionally. I highly recommend Morgan and would rebook with her if needed. Thank you for taking great care of my fur babies!”
“Angela was an amazing cat sitter! She took excellent care of all our cats and made sure every one of their needs was met. She truly went above and beyond, doing thoughtful extra things without even being asked. She even watered our fuchsia, which was so sweet. It gave us great peace of mind knowing everything at home was so well cared for. I highly recommend Angela’s cat-sitting services and would gladly hire her again!”
“Shawnee did an amazing job taking care of my cats , they both were comfortable with her right away. She went out of her way to check on a problem we had with our automatic feeder, thankful for that. We received photos daily and updates on our cats. I’ll definitely book her again when we need someone to watch over our cats.”
“Kelly did an amazing job caring for our wounded chicken, who required special care and handling. She went above and beyond and was as kind with our chicken as you would want her to be with your dogs and cats. We absolutely recommend her!”
“This was our first vacation with Rachel as our kitty wrangler. Took her just one visit before our shyest kitty realized she was a friend 😊 We will definitely rebook with Rachel.”
About: I have had pets my whole life, different kinds, and ages! I am willing to help with any medication or any special request nothing is too big or too small for me to help with for your peace of mind! I work full time as a QC chemist, but my job is very flexible anyday! I am around almost all the time in the area unless I am going somewhere myself! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs myself. One is 6 years old who is a high energy husky and a 3 year old tuff chiweenie. 😅I have a wife and kids that will extra love on your fur babies as well if you want your fur baby to meet them!
“Whitney stopped by and provided check in visits as we had arranged. She was able to give the snacks my kitty enjoys and build rapport. Sent pictures to reassure me that my kitty was not stressed. Appreciated knowing someone dependable was checking on my little family member!”
About: I have owned cats my whole life and I understand what it is like to keep a cat safe and healthy. I currently only have one cat named Dobby but I used to have 4 more. I will care for your cat like my own.
“Elizabeth was very responsive and flexible and helped us in a pinch with a very last minute drop-in request. We are so grateful for her. She did everything we asked and even helped us out by bringing a package inside. We feel lucky to have found her and plan to request her for all of our future drop-in or house-sitting needs!”
About: Taking a break from being a pet foster to petsit again. I was a vet tech for 8 years and I have had personal cats. I have experience taking care of nursing mamas, cats and kittens of all ages along with medical need cats.
About: I was raised in a dog and cat household and loved taking care of them. For the brief time in my adulthood that I did not have a pet, I would dog/cat sit for a various families often. I am fond of elderly dogs/cats and have taken care a few (including giving medications, shots, cooking specific diets, etc). I am also comfortable feeding farm animals such as horses and mules. I work full-time from my home allowing flexible time to play and care for animals. My outings are usually quick errands around town so my pets get a lot of dog mom time! I am available to do longer stays given that I work remote and love making pets feel safe and comfortable whilst their owners are away. I have a fenced-in yard and 2 friendly dogs (lab and border collie mix) to keep your furry loved one company! I also play music often for myself and for the dogs. I find it helps soothe some anxiety for them as well!
“Great experience. My cat didnt let Emily interact much but she was a great communicator and took excellent care of my girl. Will gladly book again when I need a sitter.”
“Nicole has been such an amazing sitter we went to seven feathers for my grandma’s birthday and she just amazes me she is just the best person to have at ur house watch your animals I would recommend her to anybody!! I’m so happy I never had to get a pet sitter but we were just blown away with her and her service the way she just handled everything was amazing! 100/100 couldn’t be happier with her service!! 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ she’s just so uplifting and has such great energy thank you Nicole for everything”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs big and small for 8 years. I have some experience training puppies and adult dogs as well. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, over all take great care of their furry friends for weeks before. I have always had a love for furbabies, I always volunteered at the rescue shelters as much as I could. Im currently enrolled in college, however after class hours and in between I spend all my time taking care of my fur babies at home. I am not currently working which gives me plenty of time to play and care for your loved pups/kitties. I have a big yard and 2 playful pups to keep your furry friends company. I have a couple crates so that if needed they can have down time away from each other to ensure I can prioritize the care given to your loved ones.
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats for more than 20 years, and animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I understand that pets aren’t “just pets”—they’re family. I’m loving, patient, attentive, dependable, and comfortable caring for cats with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and needs. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, behavior, comfort, and safety. Whether your cat wants to play, or curl up next to me for cuddles, I want them to feel safe, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy and cared for. ❤️
“Tamra was great with my kitty who is not very social. I was nervous that Punkin would be afraid and hide while I was away, but she took to Tamra and her home right away. I received a picture text within 5 mins of leaving her all snuggled and settled in! Tamra sent me pictures of Punkin throughout her 4 day, 3 night stay which put me at ease. I would definitely use here again.”

“We brought our dog to Whitney’s house for three days while we were in the area for work and she took great care of him! She was super flexible since we needed to pick him up at different times each day. And our dog was happy and well exercised when we got him in the evening. If we are ever back in the area again and need babysitting we will definitely bring our puppy back. Thanks Whitney!”
“Shelby did a great job with my sweet old dog. He felt so comfortable, and I could tell that he was excited to see her by the way he was prancing at the front door when we arrived. There was even a special gift in his travel bag when we got home and a thank you card! I will definitely use her services again, he loves her.”
“Bruno and Cooper just had the most amazing day at Elizabeth’s. We have been looking for our new sitter after ours for the past ten years decided to retire from dog sitting/daycare. Elizabeth kept me informed all day through picture updates of our boys having a great time. Our dogs came home happy and tired. Everything we could ask for after a day of playing. Thank you Elizabeth. So happy we found you.”
“I really appreciated how Tracy was able to provide daycare when I was out of town over the holidays when I needed to alter my plans last minute. My daughter needed some help caring for my puppy and Tracy was able to help us out. I was able to set everything up while I was stuck in the airport, which was great! I also got lots of picture updates and my daughter said that my puppy was excited to go to Tracy’s house everyday.”
“Loki loved spending time with Riley. Riley was excellent to work with, very communicative about all aspects of care and scheduling. We will definitely book with Riley again in the future”

About: Hi! I’m an educator who has always had a deep love and respect for nature and all living creatures. As a professional in education, patience, responsibility, structured care, and high attentiveness are built into everything I do. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have had a dog since I was 3 years old—she was my best friend and was by my side until she passed away at the age of 19. When I lived in Turkey, I had two dogs, and I brought both of my sweet girls with me when I moved to the USA. Sadly, they have both crossed the rainbow bridge and are now our little angels. ❤️ Today, our family includes two little dogs and one sweet cat. I have been caring for pets since elementary school and have always shared a special connection with them. Back in Turkey, I actively helped many people adopt dogs, including helping the school where I worked adopt a campus pet. I truly believe animals are family, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and deeply loved is second nature to me. Why Choose Us for Your Pet? Constant Care & Attention: My husband works from home, and I work from home most of the time as well. This means there is almost always someone around to give your pets endless love, companionship, and attention. Professional Responsibility & Safety: With my educational background, strict adherence to feeding/walk routines, safety protocols, and individualized care come naturally to me. A Loving Home Away from Home: A friend encouraged us to try Rover, and we jumped at the opportunity simply because my husband and I both love animals so much. We treat every guest like our own family in a calm, welcoming, and stress-free environment. Peace of Mind: You will receive prompt responses, clear communication, and frequent photo/video updates so you always know your furry family member is happy and thriving. We can’t wait to welcome your sweet pet into our home! 🐶🐱✨ My husband works from home, and I work outside the home for a maximum of three half-days a week. The rest of the time, I’m home. I understand that every dog is different, and I adjust my approach based on each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort level. For example, I recently cared for a large-breed puppy who wasn’t used to playing with small dogs. To make sure everyone was comfortable and safe, I divided my home into separate areas so he could have his own space while my dogs had theirs. I also moved my workspace next to his area so I could spend more time with him throughout the day. Since he had a lot of puppy energy, I took him on walks more frequently than I normally would to help him get his energy out and keep him happy and relaxed. My goal is always to understand each pet individually and create a routine where they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
About: Hi there and thank you for taking the time to view my profile! If you're looking for a place where your dog will be treated like a member of the family while you're away, you've come to the right spot. Since the day I was born, I have been surrounded by all sorts of breeds (herding, working, hounds, toys, sporting)…you name it. There isn't a breed or size I don't adore. This has taught me that every dog is uniquely special and I truly love them all. After I recently lost my sweet and wonderful 16.5 year old Blue Heeler, Sooky, I have so much love to share and I'd be thrilled to give it to your fur baby! Whether your dog enjoys running around in my fully fenced yard or snuggling up by the fire when it's cold, they'll get cozy and comfortable care while they are with me. I'm experienced with dogs at all life stages, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. I can also handle things like giving medication or if you're working on commands/hand signals (I trained Sooky by hand signals only…no words) at home, I am more than happy to keep up that consistency while they're here! As a stay at home mom, I'm usually home all day so I can provide lots of company, attention, and affection! Treats are free with your permission! The only times I have to leave are for quick school runs for my kiddos, who are 3 and 6. My kids have been surrounded by dogs since they were born so they love dogs but they also understand some dogs need space and time to acclimate. With that said, if your pup is coming to visit, I kindly ask that they should be okay with kids and other dogs. Thanks for taking the time to read, please reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your fur love. I am 100% invested in creating a positive experience for both your pup and you. I look forward to having your pup steal my heart. P.S. Just something deeply personal to me. I take huge pride in my natural connection with dogs, I have heard countless times over the years "they never warm up to people that fast!” so know they will be in a loving environment. P.S.S. Please know I am happy to give you photo/video updates so you have complete peace of mind. As a stay at home mom, I have a lot of flexibility. This means I can really focus on what your dog needs each day and tailor it to them. If you have an energetic pup who needs frequent potty breaks and active fun, I’m here for it! If you have a wise senior who just wants a quiet spot to snooze with periodic belly rubs or back scratches, I’m here for that too. Besides taking my kids to and from school in the morning and afternoon, I'm usually home. This means your dog won't be left alone for long hours. Whether your dog likes morning fun, lazy afternoon naps or a cozy evening wind down, I'll make sure your pup has a wonderful time with me. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities for every guest pup. I want them to have a "home away from home". My home features a fully fenced, secure backyard where dogs can safely run, explore, and play under my constant supervision. Inside, they’re welcome to roam freely, play with toys or snuggle up where they please. To keep the environment safe and happy for all, I will make sure every pup is friendly with children and comfortable playing alongside other dogs. I will be sure to supervise all interactions and treat your dog with the same care I’d give my own. You’ll receive photo/video check-ins during the day so you can see just how safe, happy, and settled your fur baby is!
“As a first time user of Rover and never having left our pets with anyone other than family, naturally, I was very apprehensive about leaving Henry and Zira with complete strangers. Philly immediately put my mind at ease with the first video conference - he was very reassuring and understanding. During their stay with Philly we received regular updates on how the two were doing including pictures. When we picked them up they looked happy, healthy, and well cared for. I will most definitely remember Philly and Rover the next time we need someone to watch these two again. Thank you so much.”

About: I am an animal lover, I only have 2 pets in my home right now, but I would have a cat rescue if I was able. Experience with all ages of pets. My schedule is flexible as I work from home. I prefer to walk in the morning or evening, to avoid heat stress, but I am able to work around your schedule I have an 8yr old St. Benard who is a gental giant and a 8ish year old cat that's my baby.

About: I have years of experience caring for small and medium sized dogs and am the owner of two friendly pups, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle. Because I focus exclusively on dogs under 40 pounds, I am highly familiar with the unique temperaments and safety needs of small and medium breeds. Working from home full time allows me to provide constant, dedicated supervision throughout the day, easily keeping up with your dog's specific feeding and bathroom schedules while keeping their anxiety low. Your dog will also have access to a fully fenced backyard, offering a completely secure space to get fresh air, stretch their legs, and enjoy supervised outdoor playtime with Minion and Gizmo without any risk of escaping. Whether your dog has high energy or is a calm companion who just wants to nap by my desk while I work, I provide a peaceful, attentive environment tailored to making them feel safe and right at home. Since I work from home full time, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine. My workday is structured around the dogs, meaning guest pets are never left unattended and receive constant companionship. Throughout the day, I take regular breaks to step away from my screen and supervise outdoor playtime in my fully fenced backyard. Your dog will join my own friendly pups, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle, for a consistent schedule of morning feeds, afternoon backyard romps, and plenty of desk side company while I work. Because my schedule is highly flexible, I can easily adapt to your dog's specific feeding, bathroom, or exercise timelines without any disruption to my work week. Trust and safety are the foundation of how I operate, which is why I provide care exclusively in my own home where I can maintain total oversight. To guarantee a secure environment, I strictly enforce a 40 pound weight limit for all guests. This ensures everyone is evenly matched with my own friendly dogs, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle, eliminating the safety risks and anxiety that come with mixing large and small breeds. Because I work from home full time, your dog will never be left unattended and will receive constant supervision. Outdoor time is restricted to a fully fenced backyard where I am always physically present to monitor play and bathroom breaks. I build trust with owners through transparent communication, regular photo updates, and precise adherence to your dog's established feeding and routine instructions, providing a predictable and protective environment where your pet can feel completely safe.
“Candace is a wonderful dog mom!! From the moment we met I knew Maizie would be in good hands. Candace is warm and nurturing but also aware of the mischief puppies can get into. She sent me lots of photos throughout the day and kept me updated on Maizie’s progress. Maizie had fun meeting the other animals around the farm. We are hoping to leave her for a longer time next time. I know Maizie is looking forward to seeing Candace-mom and her new big brother playmate, Wilbur again. She had a great time!”

“Stacy provides great care, communication and pictures. I can tell by reading her comments she is tuned in to how he is feeling each day. It’s been great to see him happy and well cared for while we’re away.”
About: I have been around dogs and cats since before I could walk! I started pet sitting for my neighbors when I was a kid and have spent most of my life helping out my friends and family with their pets. I am a huge animal lover and also very active! I often pet sit for my friends and love to take their dogs on walks and runs. I live in Albany with my cat, Bill, and work from home a lot so I have lots of availability and would love some more dog time in my life! I work from home four days a week (wednesday’s i am in office) so i have a lot of availability to spend time with your dog! I am also an active runner and walker, so I can get your pup outside and get out energy if that’s what they need, or we can cuddle up inside and play or hang out :) I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment with lots of grassy areas and walking paths around. I do have a cat, he gets along well with dogs, but your pup would need to be okay with cats! I have a very gentle approach to dogs and respecting their boundaries is so important to me. Depending on what you prefer for your dog, they are free to roam my apartment and be on furniture, unless you prefer them not to be! I have some experience training so if you’re in the middle of building habits, i will adhere to those practices :)
About: I’ve always grown up with pets in the house and we’ve had dogs in all ranges from chihuahuas to siberian huskies! I trained all three of our huskies to sit, shake, lay down, pray, roll over, etc. They are also all leash trained. My cats are fed twice daily so I definitely understand the importance of keeping a routine with pets! We are fortunate to have an automatic litter box, but I truly don’t mind cleaning litter boxes/picking up after pets. My cats have been trained to stay off furniture in my home and are leash trained to go on walks with me. They are fed twice a day and has access to their space which includes their food and water, litter box, cat tree, and toys at all times.
“On time. She is patient and able to redirect my reactive small dogs with treats and/or a squeaky toy. She goes above and beyond by helping me to continue to train my dogs not to react while on their walks.”
About: I have been responsible for, owned, or been caretaker of animals of all sizes (cats to buffalo) for 50+ years in the Pacific Northwest, Florida, and in Texas. I love animals of all kinds (except reptiles) and am comfortable and confident in their care. I am semi-retired and have a very flexible schedule. The job I have now only requires that I have internet access, so I am able to work from just about anywhere. I spend the summer months in the Pacific Northwest and the rest of the year traveling from Southern California to Key West and up through the Carolinas. I am happy to follow client's instructions and respect your pet's routines and expectation. I know that love is just as important as fresh water and a regular feeding schedule. I'll take the time to make sure chins are scratched, tummies are rubbed, balls are thrown, and time spent just loving on them is prioritized.
About: I have had pets my whole life, different kinds, and ages! I am willing to help with any medication or any special request nothing is too big or too small for me to help with for your peace of mind! I work full time as a QC chemist, but my job is very flexible anyday! I am around almost all the time in the area unless I am going somewhere myself! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs myself. One is 6 years old who is a high energy husky and a 3 year old tuff chiweenie. 😅I have a wife and kids that will extra love on your fur babies as well if you want your fur baby to meet them!
“Elizabeth has been really great! She has made it easy to book services, her notes are detailed and she always shares lots of pictures. Murphy really seems to enjoy his time with her and that means a lot to us.”
“Mady our new dog walker has been a wonderful addition to our support team for our pup Jude. She is a great communicator and we know Jude looks forward to seeing her everyday. Would high may recommend Mady to anyone who has doggies and needs extra support. Husband and I work all day and it’s comforting to know Mady is taking care of him while we are away. We can tell a huge difference when we come home 👍🏻”

About: Please reach out to me with questions, my schedule right now is a bit wonky, so if there’s a day you see I’m not available and are curious about, please message me! I've been around lots of animals my whole life. My parents had anything from hamsters to bearded dragons. All I need is clear and precise instructions on how to take care of your pets, and we're good to go! I have most of my week available to help take care of your pets! I will work around my schedule to spend some quality time with furry and non furry friends! I can do anything from taking your dog on a walk, to just letting them out every few hours. Or even doing overnights if need be. I'm good at cleaning up along the way, so if your pet makes a mess, rest assured you'll maybe never even notice it was there! I love giving constant attention to animals if they are willing to have it, but am also okay with just occupying the space they breathe in. You just gotta tell me the vibe and I'm all in!
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs for more than 20 years, and animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I understand that pets aren’t “just pets”—they’re family. I’m loving, patient, attentive, dependable, and comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and needs. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, behavior, comfort, and safety. Whether your dog wants to play, go for a walk, or curl up next to me for cuddles, I want them to feel safe, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy and cared for. ❤️ My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available throughout the week for dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and overnight care. I enjoy being able to spend quality time with each pet rather than rushing through a visit. Your pet’s routine, comfort, and individual needs will always be top priority. Safety, trust, and your pet’s comfort are extremely important to me. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, boundaries, and any special needs. I understand that every animal is different, so I take the time to learn their personality and allow them to become comfortable with me at their own pace. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their home and their pet’s established routine. I provide lots of affection, attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles while always keeping safety first. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾❤️
About: I have a lovely but crazy dog and a judgmental cat at home. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all kinds, fish, rodents, you name it! I’m used to leash pullers, aggressive protectors, car chasers, overly enthusiastic door greeters, and every quirk that your pup has. No matter their craziness, I’m happy to meet new pets and provide cuddles, walks, and anything else they need! I currently work part time, but I’m very flexible and can be back for visits with pets every 3 hours if needed. My availability may not be consistent, but I’ll always be able to make room in my schedule for pets! My home is not available for boarding due to my own crazy pets, but I am able to care for your pets at your home in whatever way is needed!
About: I've taken care of pets basically my whole life, especially cats, and I've also had a dog for a couple years. I'm always the first person my friends and family call when they need help with their pets. I stay well read on what's good for animals, from training to helping with anxiety, and I'm always willing to go the extra mile to make sure a pet is happy. They're living creatures who deserve just as much happiness as we do. In terms of training, I've helped a cat retrain to use the litter box after it regressed due to anxiety, working through the root cause rather than just the behavior itself. I've also reduced aggression in animals through consistent training. I'm willing to stick with things for a long time and stay consistent, especially when it's for the betterment of the animal. My life is quite flexible, so pet care fits easily into my routine. I prefer jobs where I'm able to stay in charge of how the work gets done, since that's when I feel like I can give my best contribution. That flexibility means I can adjust to a pet's needs rather than squeezing them into a rigid schedule. When I'm caring for a pet in their own environment, I make sure to respect their space and routine completely, from where they're allowed to go to how they're used to being handled. I pay close attention to safety details like doors, gates, and anything that could be harmful to them, and I adapt to whatever setup the home already has in place.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and absolutely love them. I have a 2.5 year old aussiedoodle who is my baby. I’ve house sat and pet sat for many families spanning from new puppies to large boxers. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, I’m a foster parent for Safehaven Humane Society where I’ve cared for animals from 2 week old puppies and new kittens to new Mom dogs saved from hoarding situations. I am good with more timid dogs and also dogs with lots of energy. I look forward to meeting you! I am working part time and taking online classes so I would love to get out and go for walks or have dogs come hang out with my and my puppy (Juno)! We have a nice size backyard that is all fenced in and another friendly dog to keep your dog company! Our dog was used in evaluations for new dogs at her daycare, and gets along with everyone!
About: Im passionate about all animals! When your pet stays with me they will spend the day doing puzzles, playing on the pawsome playground, and enjoying TLC. I offer new chew toys and treats and lots of love! I am a homemaker with free availability, I wake up early and spend a lot of time outdoors. I am flexible with schedules and routines to fit your needs. I have a home with a large fenced yard in SE Salem. I have two doodles in my home. We have a good sized backyard and lots of indoor activities: puzzles, new chew toys and more. Lots of cuddles, playtime, and treats are shared and given throughout the day.
About: I have raised three pets of my own, one dog and two cats as well as being raised with family pets. I have plenty of experience taking care of my family and friend’s pets. I am comfortable with cats, dogs, or really any animal. I can meet your pet where they’re at with energy levels, personalities and their quirks. I am able to administer medication if needed. I am in school and work part time but I am free to check-in or walk your pet around those obligations. I have availability almost every afternoon/evening and can do earlier in the morning depending on the day. I can check in on your pet as much as they need, make sure they are fed and watered. If you have cats I can clean litter boxes for them. If you have dogs I can take them out for potty breaks and walks.
About: I have years of experience volunteering with Humane Society and doing at home care for friends, family and have been expanding from that via word of mouth. I’ve participated in training classes during my volunteering. I also have experience with caring for wildlife animals. I’m comfortable with disabled or elderly. I'm also comfortable working with medications. I go above and beyond for your pets needs. My goal is to provide your fur baby the best care and to make sure they are living their best life while you're away! I am available Monday-Sunday. Providing fulltime care to your pets. This is my job and I make sure I have the time to do what I need for you & your pet. I do care in clients home. I show up and make sure everyone is comfortable and has their needs met before I settle. I always check in with the clients when I arrive and throughout my time there. I follow all instructions left or given by clients. Making sure the day to day is as normal of a routine for the pets as possible.

“Can I give more than 5 stars??? First time taking our dog, Bobby Lee, to a sitter and we couldn’t possibly be any happier…and Bobby Lee too! Elizabeth kept us updated daily on how he was doing, sent pictures, and communicated and a professional and prompt manner. Elizabeth was great with Bobby Lee, even teaching him some new tricks (really it was manners). She took great care of him as if he belonged to her. We are very grateful we found Elizabeth and will continue to use her to care for Bobby Lee whenever we are out of town.”

About: I worked at a pet boarding facility for a 7 years before I moved. I am a fast learner and choose to have the pet accept me before moving on to anything else. I shadowed groomers and vets to be sure the road I was taking would assure me happiness with animals and still plenty of time with my own animals. Working with the boarding facility I learned pets are different without there parents and can act differently around them so learning their likes and dislikes personally is a must for me. I want to make sure Pets and Parents are happy with me as help. I want both parties to feel safe, happy, and well rested when staying with me. I am currently working part-time with a flexible schedule. I would be able to come for an early morning and evening walk or adventure if needed. I have two dogs that are high energy. We often go to parks, take long walks, or swimming during hot days. I do have a kennel and a large vehicle for transport.
“Jordan is seriously a dog whisperer. His energy and confidence is God send. My dog Cedar can be reactive, barking, jumping, even nipping when meeting people but with Jordan, it was like a completely different dog. Calm, relaxed, and instantly comfortable. I was in total shock. Even around another dog (which normally worries me), Cedar was in dog heaven. No issues at all. I went in nervous and left totally at ease. THANK YOU Jordan for making my vacation that much better. If you’ve got a challenging dog, Jordan is your guy, Just go with Jordan.”
“Catrina was so sweet with our dog Mac. She sent us pictures every day to ensure he was being well taken care of. We will reach out to her the next time we need to leave town without our fury friend. Thank you Catrina!”
“Arielle was amazing!!! This was our first time ever leaving our fur baby with anyone other than family! She made us feel so at ease & remained in contact with us throughout his stay! She sent us pictures so we could see how he was doing & it looked like he was on vacation!!! She accepted him last minute & he came home so content & exhausted from his playtime! We have definitely found Opi’s home away from home!!! If you’re looking for an awesome sitter for your fur baby, look no further!!!”
“Our fun loving Bowie had a great time with Michael and his family. Michael shared daily updates and pictures of our girl living her best life. Highly recommend, especially if your pup would thrive in a family environment.”
“Pakuna is honestly hands down the best sitter ever. This was my first time leaving my puppy for a couple of days and was very nervous about leaving my puppy but Pakuna reassured me that everything will be ok and that my pup would have a blast. Our pup loved being with her and her pitty. Highly recommend booking her!”
