“Jim is a great sitter and you can tell he really cares about the dogs he watches. I was referred to Jim and know a few people who bring their dogs for him as well. Being a pet owner it’s the greatest relief to know your dogs are being well cared for and see your dog immediately trust him. He also updates you with photos so you know what they’re up to. I’ll definitely be reaching out to him in the future. Thanks!”
“Janette was wonderful with my 7 months old puppy. He is extremely energetic, inquisitive, and playful . She shared pictures of him every day. He participated in the birthday of one of the furries of the household and had some of the home made treats! She answered my requests right away . I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with her and will definitely come back again. Thank you for your love and care to our lovely puppy!”
“Julie and Caleb were absolutely amazing with our two boxers, Laila and Apollo! From the very beginning, their communication was outstanding—they kept us updated daily and sent plenty of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Laila and Apollo had the best time playing with their kids and running around their large property. It was clear they were treated like part of the family. Every photo showed two very happy pups! They came home tired from all the fun and full of love. We couldn’t have asked for better dog sitters and would trust Julie and Caleb again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”
“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“Our dog Poncho stayed with Chonlada for a week while we were on vacation and we could not take him with us. She was very flexible and agreeable to a meet & greet beforehand. Poncho and her dog Tokie were similar in size, age, and activity level so they seemed to get along great. She has a large fenced property for the dogs to explore and run around. I got daily updates as well as pictures and videos of Poncho, which made my family and I feel better about leaving him. Chonlada and her family took great care of Poncho (spoiled him...lol) and made sure he ate his meals and slept comfortably. They also comforted him during a thunder storm, which he does not like. Chonlada even contacted me when she noticed that Poncho was licking his paws and had a small abrasion, which she treated and monitored. Thanks so much to Chonlada and her family and I would definitely recommend her for boarding and will use again when needed.”
“Mayra and her husband was so warm welcoming! They let me know where Milo would be playing and hanging out. Which left me at easy leaving my baby boy. As well Mayra loves playing little games with the doggies she sent me a video of my Milo playing the game and doing so well! She shared pictures as well and always communicated with me when i would ask about Milo. Milo came back so happy ❤️ I would definitely book again with Mayra! Thank you so much!”
“Dawn was amazing with our boys. They were so happy when we dropped them off enjoying the big yard. So many things to explore. The pictures through the day was a great comfort! I just know they can’t wait to go back!”
“Thank you so much for watching Thor!! We are so happy we found you. He seemed even sad to leave you all which makes me happy he got so comfortable with you!! I can’t wait to book you again.”
“I hadn't left my dog Honey for so long before and am ecstatic about how well Diego and Amelia did with her! She was happy, bouncy, and bright-eyed when I picked her up. The pictures and notes they provided every day were wonderful to get along the way. I'll definitely trust them again when I travel.”
“Amanda was awesome while we were on vacation. She sent us daily pictures and updates. Her house has a huge fenced in backyard and our pups loved it. They came home happy and exhausted. She was also so accommodating with our drop off and pick up schedule. I highly recommend her. We will definitely take our boys back!”
“Samantha was great! Our dog Toast had a great time with her and her family for along weekend over the holidays. This was his first time staying in someone else's home, and Samantha made sure he fit right in and enjoyed his time with her. Samantha was also very responsive and answered any/all questions I had. Would definitely recommend!”
“Sruthi and Abha were so wonderful to our little Meatball! While we were on vacation, it was clear that Meatball was too! They sent updates with photos multiple times a day. It was so sweet and my kids, in particular, loved hearing what adventure their dog was having each day! We look forward to booking when we go away again! Thanks!!!”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”
“Mary was absolutely amazing with my dog, Nova! She took such great care of her, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I could tell Mary genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Tiffany took wonderful care of Koda while I was away. She stayed in contact with photo updates, and I could tell Koda was well adjusted and happy to be there!”
“Lisa did a great job with our 1 year old lab Franklin, he was very happy there all day. Lisa sent us pictures of him playing. Would definitely use her services again!”

“This was our first time with Emily and she was wonderful! We got the cutest photos of our cats and a detailed report of the check in. Even our shy cat came out for her from first visit we couldn’t believe it! I could tell when we came home that our kitties were happy and well taken care of, thank you so much Emily for everything that you did :)”
“She was amazing. She took amazing care of my cats and they loved her visits and play time. I truly appreciate the kindness and love she showed my pets and home.”
“Sam did great with my pets! She watched my dog for 6 days and he had a blast hanging out with her dog and kids. I know my cat loved having her stop by and feed him during that time. Sam is a very nice, reliable person.”
About: I've been a cat person for as long as I can remember, and I currently share my home with two littermate brothers who couldn't be more different. One is a shy, sensitive guy who thrives on patience, gentle voices, and earning trust at his own pace—then happily settles in for cuddles. His brother is a curious, chatty gray tabby who's either curled up napping or racing through the house during his zoomies. Living with such different personalities has taught me that every cat has their own routine, preferences, and way of showing affection. Whether your cat is outgoing, independent, or prefers to admire people from across the room, I'll care for them in a way that makes them feel safe and comfortable. As a cat owner myself, I know how much peace of mind comes from knowing someone reliable is checking in while you're away. I'll make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, plenty of playtime and enrichment (if they're interested!), lots of scritches and affection on their terms, and photo updates so you can relax knowing they're happy and well cared for.

“Betty was superb again! She took care of our cats while we were away with such care - even bringing them a toy to help ease their nerves when there was construction on our street.”
“Audrey took great care for our 3 cats with detailed updates, pictures and kindness. She was courteous and prompt with her responses. This was my first experience with hiring someone I do not know and Audrey gave me confidence that all would be well. I would for sure invite her to care for my pets again and recommend her!”
“Julie was absolutely amazing with my kitties, and it was such a relief to know that they were in great hands while I was away! I loved getting the photos and thoughtful updates she provided, and my cats loved her! I would give her 10 stars out of 5 if I could!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for myself and my pets with Jennifer. My dog who can be a bit shy really warmed up to her which is huge! Jennifer’s communication and overall positivity, care, and friendliness is so appreciated and made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dog and cat in her care. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda and Joe did an amazing job taking care of our kitties. I got pictures every day they visited and updates on how each cat was doing while they were there. They even got our super shy cat to come out of her shell a bit after a couple visits. I will definitely be using them again!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better person to take care of my three cats. Elena was thoughtful and caring and followed instructions exactly as I asked. My big boy Archie took to her right away! It's such a relief to know that while away, my cats were loved and I had nothing to worry about.”
“Jessica was great! It was my first time using Rover and she walked me through the process. She provided notes and pictures daily. I would use her again for taking care of my pet!”
About: I grew up with dogs and while my current situation isn't conducive to owning, dogsitting and walking suffice the immediate urge. I grew up with St. Bernards, so I can handle dogs of all sizes. My schedule will be very open, but I enjoy waking up early and going on walks, so if that is something that you are looking for I would gladly volunteer my services. I am very active and am ready to tire out your dog in the yard or on a run when necessary. Looking forward to spending time with your dog! I'm taking some time in between jobs, so my days are wide open, but I play soccer in the evenings very regularly, so that is the only part of the day where I may have limitations. I am not able to offer boarding given my apartment restrictions, but I can assure you I will treat your home with care and respect.
About: Kaitlyn has had cats all throughout her life growing up. She also has volunteered at her local ASPCA taking care of the cats. She has also been a pet sitter and has 4 years experience. Connor and Kaitlyn now have two cats of their own that they love more than anything in the world. They are experienced in administering medicine. They are very patient and understand cat body language and boundaries.

“Jim has been an awesome sitter for our 14 year old Yorkie poo, Cupcake. He helped us in an emergency and cared for our old girl as if she was his own! We will definitely use Jim again!”
About: Looking for a calm, loving place where your dog will be treated like family? You've found it! I know how hard it can be to leave your furry best friend, so my goal is to make their stay feel as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible. Whether you need doggy daycare for a few hours, overnight boarding, or care for a long weekend, your pup will receive plenty of one-on-one attention in a peaceful home. One of the biggest perks? I don't currently have a dog of my own, so your pup gets my full attention without having to compete with other resident dogs. I work from home full-time, so they'll have companionship throughout the day, regular potty breaks, playtime, belly rubs, and lots of love. My home is set up with dogs in mind, including a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. Every dog has their own routine, and I'm happy to accommodate it. If your pup is crate-trained, I'm happy to continue that routine. If they prefer to free roam, they're welcome to make themselves at home. I have a naturally quiet household—no loud music or constant commotion—making it an ideal environment for dogs who enjoy a relaxed atmosphere. Whether your dog loves to play, snuggle on the couch, or simply nap in a cozy spot, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have two cats who live upstairs in their own separate area and do not interact with boarding dogs, allowing everyone to enjoy their own space comfortably. I know you're trusting someone with a member of your family, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll treat your pup with the same patience, affection, and care I'd want for my own pet, while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

“Julie & Caleb were incredibly responsive and helpful when I needed a daycare arrangement for my Pointer. I ended up cancelling due to a change of plans, but will absolutely rebook in the future if I need daycare when in town.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid. Everything from turtles, fish, hamsters, to cats and dogs. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a 5.5 and 3 year old. All of us love animals, especially dogs. We would be honored to care for your fur babies while you are away! I’m a stay at home mom and my husband works from home. Between the two of us, someone is usually here. Sometimes I have errands to run but I’m not ever gone more than 2-3 hours max. I do not have a fenced in yard but am happy to walk your dog as often as needed. We have a very dog friendly neighborhood and it’s quiet. We are open to using a crate or don’t have to- whatever is the owners preference.
“I can’t say enough good things. Thoughtful, kind and gentle and so easy to leave my pet with these lovely people. I am so grateful for their animal love and easy manners. Made my experience wonderful. Thank you!”
“Sarah was able to take my dogs on short notice and she was very communicative and also just a very nice person. I would definitely use her services again in the future and recommend her to anyone who needs a safe and reliable dog sitter!”
“Janette was incredibly accommodating with my last‑minute request. She was patient and understanding with my energetic Rain, even when Rain had two accidents in her home. When I picked Rain up, she was clearly comfortable with Janette, her wagging tail and happy little hop said it all. We will definitely be using Janette again.”

My aunt runs a dog rescue, so I am always around all different breeds, sizes and personalities of dogs! I love to play, snuggle and take care of dogs! My experience with dogs extends past 20 years! I promise to treat your pets as if they were my own! I don't have a preference to the breed, as long as they're nice and friendly dogs! Hope I can be a fit for your needs! I currently am a stay at home mom to my 3 sweet kiddos. Aside from my daily errands - I am almost always home and available! I take the dogs out on a leash, always, to ensure the safety of them. I do frequent potty breaks. I have a water bowl that they are free to drink from as needed, and always have a treat and cuddle ready for them!
About: I’ve had all sorts of animals since I’ve been 10 years old. I currently have a yellow lab who is the sweetest dog! He enjoys all animals and is gentle when playing.

About: Hi, I’m Adina, owner of Playful Paws Pet Sitting. I offer thoughtful, high-quality care for dogs and cats in a calm, home-style environment. I specialize in one-on-one attention, consistent routines, and low-stress care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m experienced, insured, and deeply detail-oriented — from feeding schedules and medications to walks, playtime, and quiet companionship. I intentionally limit bookings so every pet receives unrushed, individualized care. My clients are often busy professionals who want complete peace of mind while they’re away. I provide clear communication, photo updates, and the kind of dependable care I’d expect for my own pets. Your home and your pet will always be treated with respect, warmth, and discretion. If your pet stays with me, I offer an executive home on a large one acre flat lot and access to nearby trails. For sporty dogs, we take two twenty minute walks a day and one long hike in the woods (1-2 hrs) in addition to regular potty breaks outside. For the couch potatoes, I offer lots of quiet places to lounge and toys and enrichment like puzzles. Your dog can have total privacy if needed, but it’s better for everyone if they get along with other dogs. My home is like camp for dogs! I am with your dog all day, and will not leave them for more than 1.5 hours to run a simple errand. If you’re looking for reliable, concierge-level pet care, I’d love to connect. I specialize in anxious pets, senior pets, and pets who need a lot of medical attention throughout the day. My clients are mostly long term and like family and I develop lasting relationships with your pets! This is my full time job and so I am available to you and your pets. Please discuss with me the details of what you need and I will give your pets all the love and attention they deserve. I’m friendly, flexible, and will go above and beyond to keep your pets happy. I treat all animals with love and respect. I have been an animal lover my entire life. I am neat and organized and will treat your home with care and respect. I will send you photos/videos of your pet(s) as well as daily written updates. I specialize in dogs and cats with anxiety or who are shy, as I take the time with your pets to make sure they are comfortable.
“We can not say enough about how wonderful Jean is and such a caring person. Our Bella had such a great day with Jean and little Muffin. We will definitely be using Jean in the future when we need a dog sitter for Bella.”
“Belle had such an amazing time! Chonlada and her fam were absolutely amazing. We are from out of state and were a little nervous to leave Belle, but Chonlada made it such a great experience and took wonderful care of our pup. She even sent Belle home with a parting gift and her daughters drew a beautiful pic of Belle! I would certainly trust Chonlada with any dog!”
About: About Me Hi, I’m Pam! I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all breeds—puppies to seniors—and treat every pet as family. I’m organized, caring, and deeply dependable, and I’d be honored to care for your pup. Why Choose Me? Flexible & Present: I work from home and dedicate undivided attention to each pet—companionship is always there. Routine-Focused: I follow your pet’s normal routine closely—mealtimes, walks, play sessions—to help them feel at ease. Why I Love Pet Sitting Dogs and cats have been part of my life forever—I can’t imagine not having at least one around! I balance caring for pets with raising my son—I’m home, present, and fully engaged. We’re warmly present at all times—your pet will be with company and attention throughout their care. Thank you for considering me—I look forward to making your pet feel right at home! 1. Adhere to Your Pet’s Regular Routine As an effective sitter, I stick closely to your pet’s feeding, walking, and activity schedules to reduce stress and help them feel at ease. Consistency makes all the difference—pets thrive on familiarity and structure. 2. Lean on Written Schedules & Reminders I rely on alarms, digital reminders, or a shared care document outlining feeding times, walks, and medication schedules. Detailed care plans—not just verbal instructions—help ensure nothing is overlooked. 3. Balance Walks, Play, and Mental Stimulation Your pup will enjoy walks in the morning and evening, play sessions in the yard or with toys, and brain games like puzzles or training drills. This balanced mix keeps pets physically active and mentally engaged, which is a hallmark of personalized, attentive care. 4. Clear Communication with Owners I provide updates via text, photos, or videos—tailored to your preference. Whether you'd like a daily summary or only updates if something important comes up, I'll make sure our communication fits what works best for you. Clear, consistent updates help build trust and peace of mind. 1. Create a Secure, Pet‑Safe Environment I prioritize safety by pet-proofing all areas—tucking away loose items, securing small objects, and removing anything toxic within reach. I supervise pets at all times, even in fenced yards, and avoid assuming familiarity protects against escapes or mishaps. 2. Use Barriers and Supervision for Added Security To prevent accidental exits, I employ secondary barriers—like baby gates or exercise pens—when entering or exiting through doors. Even in clients’ homes, I discuss acceptable barrier use ahead of time to ensure safety. 3. Establish Safe Boundaries & Routines I maintain separate feeding areas and “own spaces” for each pet to avoid tension and provide comfort. Cleanliness and routine are central—each pet has its own safe zone, whether in my home or yours- 4. Meet & Greet for Confidence and Preparedness I always recommend a Meet & Greet before booking—this gives us a chance to establish comfort and go over logistics such as key access, gate codes, and safe entry routes. It also helps me anticipate quirky behaviors and preferences that enhance care. 5. Respecting Your Home & Access Protocols When caring for pets in your home, I ensure a secure access plan—whether through tested codes, spare keys, or lockboxes—and always return keys promptly. I conduct perimeter checks to confirm gates are closed, trash secured, and hazardous zones off-limits. 6. Open, Tailored Communication Builds Trust I’ll work with you to determine your preferred update style—daily summaries, photo check-ins, or notes only if something unusual occurs. Consistent, clear communication not only reassures you, but also ensures your pet’s care is seamless. 7. Emergency Preparedness Included I keep emergency contact info—including vets, local animal hospitals, and your trusted contacts—on hand. I’m prepared to act quickly and responsibly in case of illness or safety concerns. 8. Built‑In Assurance through Rover’s Standards As part of the Rover community, I’ve passed a comprehensive background check and adhere to Rover’s Trust & Safety protocols, including the Rover Guarantee and responsive booking protection. Our communications always stay within the platform to ensure transparency and security.
“Alexa was amazing. Super responsive, sent a ton of pictures and kept me updated. Roo had a cone on during his stay and when the one I had broke, Alexa made she he got a new one same day. Would highly recommend”

I’m best suited for small breeds and won’t be a match for large or strong dogs. Your pup will get plenty of love and attention. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for pups. You can drop off anytime — just message me to confirm availability. I’m open on weekends and most weekdays, so your dog will get my full attention when they’re here. I live in a townhome with a shared open backyard for potty breaks and take dogs on regular walks for exercise.

“From pulling into Spencer's driveway this morning, my grand dog was so incredibly excited, she didn't even say goodbye to grandma She spent the day begging, interacting with the resident dogs who are amazing, resting and playing and just living her best life. She can't wait for the next time grandma has to go to the office”
About: While I only board small dogs, I have cared for dogs of all ages and breeds. I enjoy caring for, cuddling with and playing with dogs in my home and fenced in backyard. While in my care, your dog's safety and well-being is my priority. Your pet will have lots of play time in my backyard. I am available to provide specific dietary and care needs.

About: I’m the go to for all my friends and family for dog and cat sitting. I love walking, staying with, and spoiling my furry nieces and nephews! I’m on a hybrid work schedule, so can pop in according to my availability. Always around on the weekends and have a fenced in backyard at my own home if they’d like to play here for a bit! Always ask for a collar with tags, vets info just in case, their dietary restrictions, and of course I need to know their fav treats!
“Nicola is absolutely amazing! We couldn’t ask for a better person to care for Rocky while we’re away. She is always reliable, on time, and goes above and beyond to make sure he’s well cared for. She doesn’t just walk him—she spends time playing with him, makes sure he’s fed, comfortable, and happy, and treats him like one of her own. Knowing Rocky is in Nicola’s care gives us complete peace of mind. Her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We highly recommend Nicola to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!”
“We had a positive experience with Andrew. It was a last minute booking and he confirmed promptly. He was punctual, with proactive communication before and during the walk. Our pup was happy and he paid attention to our special instructions to keep her from picking up trash off the ground. Thank you!”
“We are extremely happy with Michelle. Hallelujah has already decided they're best friends. Michelle is prompt and provides excellent communication. It's hard to trust people with your beloved pets but I instantly felt trust with Michelle and knew my dog would be in good hands!”
“Amanda is the absolute best!! I reached out to schedule dog walking services with less than 24 hours notice, and she responded right away to book. She did such a wonderful job. Amanda arrived right on time each day, sent pictures of my dog during the visit, and even filled up his water bowl before leaving. I am beyond thankful that she took such great care of my dog and he loved her company. I would highly recommend her services and can’t wait to book with her in the future!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I grew up with three wonderful dogs throughout my childhood, each teaching me something different about love, patience, and companionship. One of them was even a future seeing-eye dog. Although we only had him for about a year before he went on to begin his important work, it was incredibly rewarding to be part of his journey and to help prepare him for the life-changing role he would have. When my husband and I bought our first home, one of the very first things we did was adopt the sweetest girl named Kora. She filled our home with joy, laughter, muddy paw prints, and unconditional love for ten unforgettable years. Saying goodbye to her was one of the hardest things we've ever done, but I wouldn't trade a single moment we had together. Because of these experiences, I know that dogs aren't "just pets"—they're family. Whether your dog loves long walks, endless games of fetch, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I'll care for them with the same patience, kindness, and attention I'd want someone to give my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy until you're back home. Beginning August 1st, my scheduled will be wide open. I have been working as a Licensed Massage Therapist for the past 11 years...and for 6 of those years I have owned my own business. I have recently decided to retire and close my business. I feel that pet sitting is the perfect mix of flexibility while also scratching the itch to spend all my time with fluff balls! I am looking forward to taking your dog on their walks, playing fetch in the backyard, or cuddling on the couch with them. I also love to spend time with you cats, rabbits, rats, hermit crabs...you get the idea!
About: I am the ultimate pet lover! I grew up with fish, a hamster, a rabbit, and dogs. In 2008, I adopted 3 puppies of my parents’ dog. They were my kids and my pride and joy! My last pup passed away in January 2024, 2 months shy of his 16th birthday. Since then, I’ve been helping to take care of family pets and am excited to offer walking, feeding, and sitting services for others in the community. I am focusing on finishing my last year as a doctoral student. I’m also an expert at time management! I am available almost everyday of the week. I am detail-oriented, caring, trustworthy, customer service-oriented, and I love animals! I don’t have any direct experience caring for cats, but I have been around them enough to be comfortable with them. I promise to take care of others’ pets like they’re my own.
About: I have lots of experience administering medication to dogs and cats and I am comfortable doing so. I am also comfortable watching puppies, who are not potty trained, and cleaning up after them. I have had many puppies in my life and cleaned up a lot of messes. Depending on your requests (and your dog's preference), I will take your dog on a long (2 to 3 mile) walk a day or to the dog park (probably in Pheonixville: on Longford Rd). A dog deserves to get all his energy out, and I do not charge more for walking them. I recently moved to the Valley View Apartments in Pottstown, PA. I work part-time at The Home Depot (6 minutes away). I have a BA in English from Stony Brook University in NY and I am returning to School this fall, part-time, to begin a new journey in Engineering. I love dogs and I would enjoy watching them and taking care of them. I have had dogs my entire life, and due to my recent move, this is the first time in my life I am without them in residence. Your dog(s) is free to go and sleep wherever they want in my apartment. My dog, Oliver, is a gentle, sweet pup with random bursts of puppy energy. He suffers with epilepsy, which is where I gained experience administering (over fifty: not an exaggeration) pills a day to my dog. Our dogs and cats are free to go wherever they want at the house back at home and when they stay here at my apartment. Although I am not living with them currently, I believe taking them out either for a long walk or to the dog park for at least forty five minutes is essential.

About: I currently work from home for a family business, but I am looking to expand my own business and passion - taking care of animals! I worked for doggy daycares and boarding facilities for 3.5 years, ensuring the safety, happiness, and health of a wide variety of dog breeds and ages. I have administered medications, completed dog handling courses, and grooming training as well. This led me to groom professionally full-time for 2 years after college. I now prefer to do at-home bathing sessions and spend more time with pets one-on-one in a homey environment. In addition to dogs, I have taken care of fish, cats, amphibians, lizards, and birds. I have a 9 year old bunny of my own, so I am well-versed in rabbit care. Throughout high school, I volunteered at PetSmart taking care of the cats and at Diane's Pet Supplies, too, walking their dogs. These are all in addition to being my primary neighborhood dog-sitter/walker. Pet sitting fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely with a highly flexible schedule. This allows me to adjust my day around your pet’s needs—whether that means regular walks, consistent feeding times, play breaks, or simply being present for companionship. I’m able to provide frequent check-ins. For stays in my own house, because I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and interaction. My flexible schedule also allows me to closely follow your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care to keep them comfortable and well cared for. I’m committed to providing attentive, reliable care for every pet I look after. I’m happy to take your dog on walks, follow feeding instructions closely, and administer any medications as needed. When caring for your pet in your home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while you’re away. I also pay close attention to behavior and overall well-being, ensuring your pet stays happy, healthy, and at ease. If your dog is staying in my home, they’ll be treated just like my own. They’ll enjoy plenty of affection, attention, and enrichment throughout the day—including couch privileges, treats (as approved), and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home, your pet will have near-constant supervision and companionship, allowing me to closely monitor their safety, comfort, and health for a smooth and enjoyable stay!
About: I grew up working on my aunt’s horse ranch and petting zoo, taming barn cats and swimming with my chocolate Lab, Yogi. Animals have always had a special place in my heart. I specialize in medically sensitive pets, seniors, animals who take their time warming up, and the ones who decide we’re best friends immediately. I care for every animal like I would want someone to care for my own. Clients often tell me, “You must think I’m nuts for doing all this for my pet.” My answer is always, “You should see what I do for mine. 😂” With four cats and a senior rescue dog I truly get it. Our animals are family. They give us unconditional love without words, and they deserve the very best care, patience, and stewardship we can give them. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, understood, and genuinely loved while they’re in my care. Pet care is my daily life and full-time passion. My schedule is built around providing reliable, attentive care while giving every animal the time they deserve. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I expect for my own. I follow routines closely, prioritize safety, communicate consistently, and pay attention to each pet’s individual needs, comfort, and personality.

About: Hello! I love making new fur friends! I’ve been using rover for a few years now but took a break. I just started back on here and looking forward to meeting new clients! I am very dedicated to the wellbeing of animals, both mine and others. I got my first animal at age 11, lived 15 long years with me. Then, since the age of 13 I have taken care of animals that were not mine, normally for weeks at a time. I’ve bottle fed and fostered kittens.

I treat pets as family and would treat your animal just the same. A meet and greet is preferred so that both me and the dog are familiar with each other.

“Jim is a great sitter and you can tell he really cares about the dogs he watches. I was referred to Jim and know a few people who bring their dogs for him as well. Being a pet owner it’s the greatest relief to know your dogs are being well cared for and see your dog immediately trust him. He also updates you with photos so you know what they’re up to. I’ll definitely be reaching out to him in the future. Thanks!”
“Julie and Caleb were absolutely amazing with our two boxers, Laila and Apollo! From the very beginning, their communication was outstanding—they kept us updated daily and sent plenty of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Laila and Apollo had the best time playing with their kids and running around their large property. It was clear they were treated like part of the family. Every photo showed two very happy pups! They came home tired from all the fun and full of love. We couldn’t have asked for better dog sitters and would trust Julie and Caleb again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”
“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“Dawn was amazing with our boys. They were so happy when we dropped them off enjoying the big yard. So many things to explore. The pictures through the day was a great comfort! I just know they can’t wait to go back!”
“Thank you so much for watching Thor!! We are so happy we found you. He seemed even sad to leave you all which makes me happy he got so comfortable with you!! I can’t wait to book you again.”
“Samantha was great! Our dog Toast had a great time with her and her family for along weekend over the holidays. This was his first time staying in someone else's home, and Samantha made sure he fit right in and enjoyed his time with her. Samantha was also very responsive and answered any/all questions I had. Would definitely recommend!”
“Sruthi and Abha were so wonderful to our little Meatball! While we were on vacation, it was clear that Meatball was too! They sent updates with photos multiple times a day. It was so sweet and my kids, in particular, loved hearing what adventure their dog was having each day! We look forward to booking when we go away again! Thanks!!!”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”
“Mary was absolutely amazing with my dog, Nova! She took such great care of her, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I could tell Mary genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Lisa did a great job with our 1 year old lab Franklin, he was very happy there all day. Lisa sent us pictures of him playing. Would definitely use her services again!”
“Had a great experience with Manu and Dhruv. Loved getting pictures and updates throughout the day, it really put me at ease. I would absolutely trust them with my dog again and for longer periods.”
“William and Kristen are true dog people- loving, caring and sensitive to your furry family member’s needs. They were prompt in getting back to us and kept us posted with pics and fun comments. Asha seemed very “at home” in the their home when I picked her up. Thx guys for treating our pup like one of your own!!”
“Dolly took care of our two dogs for 5 days and nights and they were SO WELL LOVED by her whole family. Well taken care of, and we received lots of photos of how much fun they were having. No hesitation to recommend Dolly!”
“Zen had a very nice stay with Tim and his family. She LOVES kids and Tim provided plenty of opportunities for playtime with them and with his 2 small dogs. Drop-off and pickup were super easy. It was a nice bonus to receive a couple pictures of Zen while we were away. We would certainly select Tim again if he is available! 😀”
“Jetzy was awesome with our little frenchie. She provided daily updates, and was able to accommodate his special needs. Our dog had a ton of fun with Captain. Would absolutely recommend and use Jetzy and family again!”
