“Vivian and her family are wonderful! We have used them several times and our little Timmy really seems to enjoy going there! They take such great care of him and send loads of pictures!”
“My booking request was super last minute because my previous arrangements fell through, and Augusta was originally not available but reached back out to me later on to tell me she would be able to if I still needed it which I greatly appreciated! She was great with Bobble and communicated very regularly about how he was doing!”
“Jessica is a wonderful person and takes such good care of my dog! I am so glad that she is there for us. She even gave Hero a massage every night! She is amazing! ”
“Highly recommend. Our boy was well taken care of with daily updates and pictures. He loved playing with her dogs and actually came home pretty tired from all the activity. Will definitely be using Melissa again.”
“We left our mini schnauzer in the BEST care for our 2 week trip away. Andrew, Karen, and Finn were the best hosts to our boy. We received many daily updates of photos/videos of Moose having the best time playing with Finn. They were always so quick to respond to any messages we sent. When we picked up Moose, he was clean and brushed. I’m one of those crazy dog moms and am 10000% happy with how Moose was taken care of! Thank you so much Andrew and Karen!”
“Carol and her whole crew of pups are wonderful! She took to my two pups like they were her own! We could relax on our vacation knowing they were in the best hands. Thank you!!”
“Jordan was exceptional with our pup! She is an expert in the field and provides high quality care. She provided regular updates with pictures during the booking. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Coralee and her family are wonderful people. They were so warm and loving, it felt like we were leaving Olive with family. Olive and Coralee's pup Angel became good friends. Olive looked happy and relaxed in all the pics Coralee sent, which we appreciated a lot along with her regular updates. Would use her again in a heartbeat!”
“Beatriz is amazing! My dogs loved her and the attention! She made sure they were safe and happy! I honestly am pleased. Much better than a pet hotel. I thought my one dog didn't like other dogs but turns put she loves them when I'm not present. I will use her in the future and always.”
“My pup spent a week with Lindsay and her family and I couldn’t be happier with how attentive she was to my dog’s needs through the entire process. She provided many updates so that I knew my pup was happy and enjoying himself. I can tell that my furball will be so happy to go back!”
“Sharon was awesome accommodating a last minute boarding for my corgi, Millie! Millie can definitely be a handful, but Sharon was totally unfazed. Millie loved her time here and had so much fun playing with the other dogs. Sharon was so sweet and helpful even when we were running late for pickup. Lots of video and photo updates helped keep me at ease and were beyond adorable. 5 stars and I would definitely book again!!”
“Steve was amazing with our dog, Winnie. This was our first trip without her, and without Steve, I definitely would’ve been worrying about her and how she was doing. Instead, we got daily updates showing Winnie living her absolute best life and getting completely spoiled. Honestly, our only concern by the end was whether she’d want to come home. Steve is clearly an animal lover and just a cool person. If you want your dog to have an awesome vacation of their own, book with Steve.”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“I loved Gary and his wife they were soooo good to Teddy I didn’t even have to worry about my dog for the first time ever . Teddy can’t wait to come back !!! Thanks guys see you again soon”
“Our labradoodle Leo had a great time at Maria’s. We appreciated the care she took in acclimating him to a new environment and the updates with pictures! We would absolutely use Maria again!”
“Lucas did a great job watching our two dogs while we were away. Communication was easy and everything went smoothly. We’d definitely trust him to watch them again and would recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter”
“Ashlyn was great! She made the the dropoff so easy, and we had no issues. She was great with sending pictures, and eased my worries big time. This was the first time we've left our little guy in someone else's care, and I was very nervous, but she did a fantastic job walking lots and taking care of him. We would definitely have her watch him again 😁✋”
“Nelia and family took such good care of my pup she never missed a beat. She even ate the first day I was gone---this NEVER happens. Can't say thank you enough 😊”
“Listens to details from little to big to ensure a happy and safe environment. Takes time to engage with them and ensure they’re happy. Daily communication and updates. Friendly pets to engage with mine. Will book again when needed. Very thankful for a reliable sitter like Jennifer.”
“Victoria is amazing! We board our sweet girl Hannah who is a doberman mix, and she has the best time. Victoria communicates twice a day and more if needed to help us feel better about leaving Hannah especially when its more than a week. Thank you Victoria for taking such good care of our sweet girl!!!”

“Amanda was responsive and took multiple pictures each visit. She also did not mind last minute changes in regards to feeding my fish, key drop -off, etc, and could be reached with questions, concerns and updates by phone easily. When I did not respond to the pictures she was sending she even reached out to my personal contact to make sure I was getting them after a couple of days. Will definitely recommend and will be using in the future if available”
“Nicole, was wonderful. She kept in communication. Let me know of any issues. She left a detailed account of the visit. Her detailed account also was very accurate to what i expected for each cat. And some cute pics my cats. Definitely would recommend her.”
“Becky was wonderful. She provided once a day care plus extended 30 minute time for our two cats while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Becky went above and beyond, even picked up some meds and administered pills to our elderly kitty. We definitely were blessed to have Becky take care of our fur babies when the need arises. Don’t hesitate to book Becky.”
“Abby Jo was available and willing to help on a short notice and my cat Mario loved her! She was very communicative during her drop in with pictures, updates, and concerns. I look forward to her help in the future!!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter for my two kitties Chase and Mulan. Paul accepted the request very quickly because we had an international trip in two days. He quickly went to our house to learn how to use our cat's litter robots, feeder, etc. He is gentle, patient and amazing with our kitties. He always goes the extra mile to better take care of them. He played with our kitties, sent updates and photos, and even helped us with cat-related issues while we were away. His care made us feel at peace! I would definitely recommend Paul for anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you Paul for taking such wonderful care of Chase and Mulan.”
“Mallory went above and beyond for my two cats. She catered to their every need (and they have a long list of needs)! They could not have been better taken care of. She sent lots of pictures and kept in constant contact. Even letting us know our power went out and checking to see if our pool pump needed turned back on. HIGHLY recommend!”
“Cristina was a fantastic drop-in pet sitter for our cats! I was able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing she had them taken care of. She followed my instructions for dosing our elderly cat with his medicine perfectly, and even cleaned up litter. She went above and beyond my requests, and it was much appreciated!”
“Ashlyn was absolutely amazing!!! She took really great care of my cat while I was away for a week. She had GREAT communication the entire time and sent so many pictures. I know for sure my cat had a great time and was very well taken care of. I will definitely be using her services again. 😄”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Export
About: Although this account is under my name, this is a team effort with my wife. We’re a young, energetic couple who have all the time and patience your pup deserves. A fully fenced yard out back provides a great place for playtime, and there’s always a spot on the couch to hang out with us. We have raised rates due to high demand going into the summer. If you’re a returning client, please reach out and if there are any issues with cost, we can work something out. I work a 9-to-5 schedule from home and I tend to spend a lot of my free time there as well. My wife is also home most of the day, so we have plenty of time throughout the week to give your dog the attention they need! My fully fenced yard, quiet house and neighborhood are perfect for dogs who are looking to relax on their vacation, but I have plenty of energy to walk and play with them too. Your dog will be hosted by our Bernedoodle, Finn, who loves making new friends.
About: I've had a strong passion for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family relied on me to care for our dogs, cats, and hamsters. I now live in my own home with 4 cat children. I have dog-sat and cat-sat for several neighbors. I am very experienced at dog and cat walking, bathing, feeding, and medicine-giving. During the week I work as a full time engineer and cat mom. On the weekends, I have plenty of free time to hang out, play in the yard, or go for walks with your pet. In my home, I have 4 cats of varying ages (1 yr, 3 yrs, 4 yrs, 6yrs). They are friendly and well-adapted to other dogs and cats. They often have playdates with my parent's 16 year old cat and 7 month old kitten. Each of my cats are vaccinated, neutered, and love making new friends! In your home, I will accommodate any requests you may have. I will ensure the safety and happiness of your pet above all else.
“Carol has been very responsive and has taken in our girl Georgie. Georgie is a little timid and backwards at first, but Carol made her feel right at home. Georgie took to her welcoming, home environment and settled right in. She gets along great with the other babies being baby/dog sat, and Carol is very good with her. We will be using Carol in 2025!”
“Beatriz was amazing!!! She was so willing to help us in a bind for a last minute booking and we are so glad we met her! We have 2 chihuahua mixes; one is very anxious and can be a handful sometimes. He is quite fearful of new people, animals, and places. Within minutes of us dropping the dogs off, Beatriz texted me photos of both dogs playing in a pack with others and even snuggling up with her soaking up the attention! It was amazing. She is so patient and kind. Truly someone we would certainly trust with our dogs again!”
About: Animals have been a passion of mine my entire life! I have owned and loved cats and dogs of all ages and sizes since I was 10. I would love to show that same love to your babies, too! I am available to do in-house stays, walking, play dates, and much more! I work full-time, but work from home so that makes it easy for me to care for your furry friend. My weekends are usually filled with playing with my puppies, but I would love to make time for your pets to join us for walks or play dates! I have a fenced in yard and an open floor plan home that allows for plenty of room to play, rain or shine. I live on a quiet street that makes walking your pet a breeze. All doors remain shut in my home to ensure no nosy pups can get in to things that they should not. I am big on taking pictures and can keep you updated on the status of your pet to ensure you feel comfortable with leaving your pet in my care!
About: I just like being around puppies. Especially the smaller ones. I don't have any special skills and definitely not a professional. But I'm a responsible person and so you can trust me with your puppy. No cats though. I work one one week and one week off. On my off weeks I don't really do anything (yet). Filling the void. Free throughout the day during off weeks and not a single second during work week. I can walk your puppy, feed your puppy, ensure that it has company, play around with it, watch for signs of the puppy needing additional care.
“Steve was a big help so we could have peace of mind that Maive was being well cared for while we where visiting In the east Pittsburgh area. Big fenced in yard! We had to change the drop off time and Steve always quick to respond, would definitely use his dog sitting services again.”
“We have been using Beatriz & Hayden for almost three years. They have cared for all three of our dogs; each who had/have their own special needs or quirks. Beatriz & Hayden have graciously accommodated all of their needs with much love and kindness. Our boys love(d) going there and I always felt comfortable leaving them with these extremely capable sitters. They send great photos and updates during a visit and I was always able to get in touch with them in a very timely manner and always felt respected and acknowledged when communicating with them. These are only some of the reasons why we will continue to drive the extra distance just to book them as our pet sitters!”

I have the ability to be able to stay home with my family and my pets and care for them during the day and night making sure no one is ever alone ❤️ Currently a stay at home mom caring for my 5 year old and 1 year old twins! With being home I have all the time in the world to dedicate to your fur babies. We love adventures like playing in the fenced in yard, throwing ball and going on long walks.

Lots of room for playing outside in the safety of not having to worry about your pets roaming off. We have a crate available for dogs who need it and are crate trained. Of course only if the owner request will they be in it.
“I was definitely a nervous new mom dropping Rosie off with someone I just met but Jordan was kind, patient, and thorough. She is also extremely knowledgeable and supportive. Rosie had the best day on her farm!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was born and have cared for them myself since I was 10 years old. My dog of 14 years recently passed away and I've decided to sign up for Rover to get my puppy fix keeping other dogs company while their owners are at work, traveling etc. I work from home full time, have a large fenced in yard and can give your dog(s) the love and attention they deserve! I currently work from home full time so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am available from any time in the morning until whenever needed in the evening. I can take breaks as needed to walk your pups in addition to letting them run around in our fenced-in yard as much as they please! I have a large fenced-in yard where I can play with them and be fully-attentive or let them relax on their own outside if preferred and acceptable to you. Our home is air conditioned/heated and comfortable to your pets while you are working/away.
About: Reliable boarding, house sitting and check-ins with lots of love and attention. Why pet parents love booking with me • Work from home—pets get lots of attention • Quick responses and easy communication • Daily photo & video updates • Reliable, dependable care • Comfortable with dogs and cats • Plenty of walks, playtime, and affection • I treat every pet like family Whether your pet is staying in my home or I'm caring for them in yours, my goal is simple: I want you to enjoy your trip knowing your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. I've been around animals my entire life and have experience with both dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I work from home, pets in my care aren't left alone for long periods. They receive frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles (if they enjoy them), and lots of supervision throughout the day. When you're away, you'll receive regular photo and video updates, quick responses to messages, and the reassurance that your pet is being cared for like one of my own. I'm committed to keeping your pet's routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'd love the opportunity to care for your pet! I only care for a limited number of pets at a time so each one receives plenty of individual attention. Please contact me for any questions or to set up a meet and greet! ❤️ Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting in your home depending on your pet’s needs. I also enjoy getting my steps in and staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to while making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm, and supervised environment with plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I do currently have two cats, so I ask that dogs staying with me are cat-friendly. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routine, follow feeding/walking instructions carefully, and make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I believe pets should feel safe, loved, and treated like family in any environment. I have a pet-friendly backyard space for supervised outdoor time, walks, and play. Since the yard is not fenced in, safety and supervision are always a priority.

“Vivian and her family have been helping take care of our little pup, Ebby, for a little less than 3 months now and I cannot say enough good things about her. She is so reliable, loves Ebby like she’s her own, and updates us daily with pictures and videos during their walks. We could not work full time and give our energetic puppy the attention she needs without her help. Thank you for all that you do!”
“Mallory was a fantastic support as we were training our new puppy during her first week home. We were able to go to work with peace of mind knowing that Mallory would be there to take care of her while we were gone! Her knowledge, flexibility, creativity with games and training are so wonderful and Mallory has quickly become a very important part of our lives! Thank you Mallory!! You are truly a very caring and gifted person! We really appreciate everything you have done for us!!”

About: Hello! I'm Kristina, a special education teacher by day and an animal lover at heart. Caring for others has always been my passion, and my love for animals began at a very young age. I've been a dog owner since I was five years old, and pets have always been an important part of my life. As a teacher, I have a dependable schedule that allows me to provide loving and reliable care for your furry family members. I understand that being away from your pet can be stressful, so my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether it's a walk around the neighborhood, a drop-in visit for potty breaks and meals, playtime in the yard, or plenty of belly rubs and cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits. During the school year, I am typically available before work around 6:00 AM, after work beginning at 4:00 PM, and later in the evening. During the summer months, my schedule is much more flexible. I may also consider overnight house sitting for established clients once a trusting relationship has been formed. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet and provide dependable care, companionship, and peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to helping keep tails wagging! I work as a teacher full time during the school year. I have summers off and weekend/evening availability during the school year. I am very flexible. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as much as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. During drop-in visits, I provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, playtime, walks if requested, medication administration (if needed and instructions are provided), and plenty of love, attention, and cuddles. I also enjoy sending updates and photos so pet parents can have peace of mind while they are away. For dog walking services, I make safety a priority by ensuring pets are properly leashed, hydrated, and exercised according to their age, energy level, and individual needs. I take time to provide affection and companionship during each visit, not just a quick walk.

About: I’m Emily! A little about me: I love to run, lift, paint, and read. I am currently a student at the University of Pittsburgh studying Speech Pathology and Audiology who’s home for the summer! I've been a pet owner myself for about 5 years now. My family currently has three cats and has had a dog and another cat in the past. Within the last seven years I have dog and cat sat for a lot of my extended family and friends. I'm currently on the hunt for a part-time job for the summer, so I have plenty of time on my hands to look after and care for pets. I also have my own car and am hanging out with friends a lot, so I am always around. I am very diligent with making sure doors and windows are shut and locked to ensure that your pets do not go in or out (if they're indoor pets/ not on a leash) as I have to do that with my own pets! I also realize as it grows hotter, animals become dehydrated and hot as well, and I am careful to make sure water bowls are filled, and there is water during walks as well.
“Thank you Mariah for caring for my two pups! I have a senior and a reactive dog that both require great patience and care. I am also fairly particular with who I trust caring for my dogs; however, Mariah was wonderful and made the pups comfortable. Highly recommend!”
About: I started training dogs at a very young age, and decided to make it into a career a few years ago. I specialize in fearful and reactive dogs, the overlooked and misunderstood. I have open availability Saturday through Tuesday! Even on the other days I am working, I’m always working with dogs. We can always work around work schedules If your dog is up for it- I will include your dog in my daily life as if they’re part of the family. If they prefer a place to be calm by themselves, I have a few runs to offer for that as well. I also do in home training, as well as meeting up at dog friendly locations depending on the need of the dog.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 7 and I have taken increased responsibility over those years: feeding them, walking them, and watching them while my parents are out of town. I’ve dealt with training puppies: like walking on the leash, teaching simple tricks, and house training them. I’ve taken care of one dog through her end-of-life: including giving medicine, and dealing with bleeding and bladder control issues. I’m open seven days a week during normal day time hours. I’m willing to walk dogs or visit them in home. I have my own transportation if needed. I would walk the dogs in their neighbourhood or a local park. I’m willing to visit the home to play or help train the dog.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have taken great care to ensure they are as happy as can be! I also occasionally dog sit for some senior dogs in my area! I am currently available every day of the week! I am more than happy to take your babies on walks, drop in, or dog sit any day including weekends! At this time I do not have any other pets in my home, I have a huge yard in a quiet neighborhood, if your fur baby needs extra care or attention I am more than happy to provide it!
About: What sets me apart is my personalized approach—treating every pet like my own, with dedicated attention, consistent communication, and a deep understanding of each animal’s unique needs and personality. I work from home all week and have a pretty short working schedule. I have lots of time at home to make sure each pet has the best care they need while the owner is out. Been doing it for so long and it's the best job ever! I have a fenced yard with lots of space, i live in a home in a mixed suburban neighborhood and there's lots of walking space around the block, dog park 5 min away and great space at home (no kids, just my wife)
About: I have loved animals since I was a small child. I got my first cat over 15 years ago and still love her dearly. My parents wouldn’t allow me to have a dog so I had to wait until I moved out when I was 20. After buying my house I rescued my neighbors dog that was permanently locked up in an outdoor kennel. Unfortunately she already had Lyme disease so it was for less than a year that I was able to give her a good quality of life. I then adopted my ex-coworkers German Shepard who was 5. Unfortunately despite all my efforts to have her live longer than her lifespan I lost her years later due to paralyzing seizures. Not too long after that I sold my house and have not been stable enough to get another dog due to my constant traveling. I love dogs and want to have another but can’t make a life long commitment at this time. However I can make a day/week/month long commitment to take care of your loved dog. It would be a pleasure to take care of your fur baby/babies. I work from home so I’m only gone for a couple/few hours out of the day to go to the gym and maybe grocery shop. I frequently go on walks when the weather permits and would love to bring your dog with me. If you have a dog who pulls as hard as they can I do prefer that you have a gentle leader. I am available all days and times when I am not traveling. I have a large yard at the end of a cul-de-sac in a nice neighborhood. I do have two cats who have lived with dogs before. If watching your loved pet I ask for details on what your expectations are to insure that you are 100 percent satisfied with my care for your fur baby.

“We left our mini schnauzer in the BEST care for our 2 week trip away. Andrew, Karen, and Finn were the best hosts to our boy. We received many daily updates of photos/videos of Moose having the best time playing with Finn. They were always so quick to respond to any messages we sent. When we picked up Moose, he was clean and brushed. I’m one of those crazy dog moms and am 10000% happy with how Moose was taken care of! Thank you so much Andrew and Karen!”
“Jordan was exceptional with our pup! She is an expert in the field and provides high quality care. She provided regular updates with pictures during the booking. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Coralee and her family are wonderful people. They were so warm and loving, it felt like we were leaving Olive with family. Olive and Coralee's pup Angel became good friends. Olive looked happy and relaxed in all the pics Coralee sent, which we appreciated a lot along with her regular updates. Would use her again in a heartbeat!”
“My pup spent a week with Lindsay and her family and I couldn’t be happier with how attentive she was to my dog’s needs through the entire process. She provided many updates so that I knew my pup was happy and enjoying himself. I can tell that my furball will be so happy to go back!”
“Steve was amazing with our dog, Winnie. This was our first trip without her, and without Steve, I definitely would’ve been worrying about her and how she was doing. Instead, we got daily updates showing Winnie living her absolute best life and getting completely spoiled. Honestly, our only concern by the end was whether she’d want to come home. Steve is clearly an animal lover and just a cool person. If you want your dog to have an awesome vacation of their own, book with Steve.”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“I loved Gary and his wife they were soooo good to Teddy I didn’t even have to worry about my dog for the first time ever . Teddy can’t wait to come back !!! Thanks guys see you again soon”
“Ashlyn was great! She made the the dropoff so easy, and we had no issues. She was great with sending pictures, and eased my worries big time. This was the first time we've left our little guy in someone else's care, and I was very nervous, but she did a fantastic job walking lots and taking care of him. We would definitely have her watch him again 😁✋”
“Nelia and family took such good care of my pup she never missed a beat. She even ate the first day I was gone---this NEVER happens. Can't say thank you enough 😊”
“Listens to details from little to big to ensure a happy and safe environment. Takes time to engage with them and ensure they’re happy. Daily communication and updates. Friendly pets to engage with mine. Will book again when needed. Very thankful for a reliable sitter like Jennifer.”
“Victoria is amazing! We board our sweet girl Hannah who is a doberman mix, and she has the best time. Victoria communicates twice a day and more if needed to help us feel better about leaving Hannah especially when its more than a week. Thank you Victoria for taking such good care of our sweet girl!!!”
“Lindsay and her family were so sweet and accommodating. They went out of their way to learn about my puppy and sent updates. They were there when I needed them. Thank you!”
About: Reliable boarding, house sitting and check-ins with lots of love and attention. Why pet parents love booking with me • Work from home—pets get lots of attention • Quick responses and easy communication • Daily photo & video updates • Reliable, dependable care • Comfortable with dogs and cats • Plenty of walks, playtime, and affection • I treat every pet like family Whether your pet is staying in my home or I'm caring for them in yours, my goal is simple: I want you to enjoy your trip knowing your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. I've been around animals my entire life and have experience with both dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I work from home, pets in my care aren't left alone for long periods. They receive frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles (if they enjoy them), and lots of supervision throughout the day. When you're away, you'll receive regular photo and video updates, quick responses to messages, and the reassurance that your pet is being cared for like one of my own. I'm committed to keeping your pet's routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'd love the opportunity to care for your pet! I only care for a limited number of pets at a time so each one receives plenty of individual attention. Please contact me for any questions or to set up a meet and greet! ❤️ Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting in your home depending on your pet’s needs. I also enjoy getting my steps in and staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to while making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm, and supervised environment with plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I do currently have two cats, so I ask that dogs staying with me are cat-friendly. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routine, follow feeding/walking instructions carefully, and make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I believe pets should feel safe, loved, and treated like family in any environment. I have a pet-friendly backyard space for supervised outdoor time, walks, and play. Since the yard is not fenced in, safety and supervision are always a priority.
“Erin has now watched Eleanor (12 year old Chinese Crested - Beagle) twice, and has been absolute dream to work with! Eleanor is quite picky when it comes to sitters, and takes quite a long time to warm up to people. Her connection with Erin was immediate. I received multiple updates every day, very clear line of communications, and drop off and pick up very timely. I highly recommend Erin, and look forward to working with Erin many more times.”
“Annette was lovely and caring to both Gustavo and me. Delays in flights meant I was 7 hours late in getting to Gus. Annette graciously dealt with this inconvenience. She was always quick to respond to communications. Most importantly, Gus clearly felt at home and welcomed from the minute she greeted him. When I picked him up, he was clearly comfortable with Annette. Thank you.”
“Tyler was great with my dog Riley! She immediately took to his house and yard, as well as Tyler himself. He was flexible in terms of scheduling a meet-and-greet that was kinda last minute and was professional. He also provided plenty of photo updates of Riley throughout the stay. Overall, I would definitely use Tyler again for dog sitting.”
“Alex is a fantastic sitter. She sent me lots of photos of Hank during my trip, and when circumstances held me up for an extra day, she was willing to extend the booking. I can feel confident leaving Hank with her, knowing that he will be in good hands, and I highly recommend Alex to any pet parent.”
