“My dog has had the same sitter for 14 years, so I was concerned about how he would adapt to a new person and setting. Grace was wonderful with him. She followed his schedule and routine. When I picked him up, he was relaxed and happy. Grace kept me informed about how he was doing with messages and pictures. I will definitely use Grace again.”
“This is the 2nd time that I have boarded with Megan and Vitality. I will continue to use them! They took great care of my special needs little blind boy. They always send pictures to let me know he is ok. My baby came home happy and relaxed. They are great caregivers!”
“Kaylee was AMAZING! Not only did she take great care of my pup, but she was super detailed and sweet - made him Easter egg treats 🥚💕 to take home! Kept me posted with adorable pics too. Highly recommend!”
“Lisa continues to be a great help to our family. Lucy knows her well now and always comes home in a great mood and a bit tuckered out. I miss Lucy so much while we are away but with the updates throughout her stay, I can see she's having just as much fun, if not more, on her vacation too.”
“Lorraine provided a wonderful home-away-from-home for my senior dog. She certainly gave him the royal treatment and he clearly enjoyed his stay with her. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my dog was happy and comfortable. Everything about our experience using Lorraine's dog hosting service was exceptional. She provided quick updates and photos of our dog having fun, which we really enjoyed while away. She was also very flexible and responsive to communications. I highly recommend Lorraine as a dog host!”
“Anita was great with my pup!! She sent pictures and updates daily - her home is clean and she lives in such a dog friendly neighborhood for multiple walks and fun!! Definitely recommend booking with her!!”
“Angelita is accommodating and her prices are reasonable. She was quick to respond to my request and she welcomed Aurora into her home with open arms. She texted me updates and photos to make sure I knew how things went. She also responded quickly to texts from me checking in. I will definitely book with Angelita again when I am in need of a sitter for our dog.”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“Our dog Henry stayed with Betsy and Ron for 6 days June 2026. They were fantastic in every way. Very friendly and interested in making sure Henry (and my wife and I) were completely comfortable with the arrangement during our vacation. We received frequent text updates with pictures which we truly appreciated. We would gladly book with them again in the future.”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life from German Shepherds to our little cavachon. Since my kids are getting older and don’t need as much help, I have time to take care of your precious pets when you need it! I’m here to take care of everyone! My day is full of making sure every person and every pet has what they need! Walking, sleeping, eating, drinking, and mess making-someone has to take care of it all! I have a good sized yard and a nice wooded park with walking paths nearby for daily walks and outside time. Our home is clean and comfortable with big kids coming and going who love animals like I do!
“Deborah was great with our 9 year old terrier. She was very communicative and sent updated pictures throughout our trip. When we returned, our dog was calm and content. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Muffy had a great experience staying with Meagan and family. Highly recommend Meagan and her services, would definitely revisit when looking for boarding and/or day care. Thank you Meagen for taking care of Muffy when we were out.”
“Very thankful for Beth's flexibility! She was able to watch my dog at her house (for the second time) when I had to go on a quick work trip with only a few days notice. She also sent me pictures of my dog to let me know that my dog was having fun!”
“Curtis took really good care of our dog while we were away. He was really excellent with updating us with pictures and how our dog was doing. Curtis made my dog feel comfortable and at ease. If i ever need a dog sitter, Curtis will be my first choice.”
“I cannot say enough great things about Alyssa! Our two doggos, Ava and Peyton, are two very unique pitties. Ava is 10 and is a nervous Nel who just likes to cuddle up and relax. Peyton is almost 3 and more like a wreck it Ralph. As worried as I was that Peyton would destroy their home or that Ava would have a heart attack, they ended up loving their stay! Not only that, but I could tell that they got exactly what they needed from Alyssa and her family because when we got home, Ava and Pey were spent. Alyssa always remained in contact with me and answered all my questions and accommodated a last minute request. Thanks, Alyssa!!!”
“Rita is truly one of the BEST caretakers we’ve ever had!! Our Chihuahua is usually a little shy at first but before we even pulled out of the driveway he was in Ritas arms ready for a weekend! Her house is all about caring for your pup & she sends pictures keeping you updated all weekend - 1000% recommend Rita!!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles, and fish through both pet sitting and caring for my own animals. I’m patient, dependable, and understand that every pet has different needs and routines. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medications, or additional attention. I always follow owners’ instructions closely, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule to make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship they need. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, drop in visits, or evening check ins, I’m committed to providing consistent, reliable care while keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I always follow each owner’s instructions closely. I’ll make sure your pet is fed on schedule, has fresh water, gets plenty of exercise and playtime, and receives lots of attention and affection. I’m also happy to administer medications if clear instructions are provided. I keep a clean, safe environment, pay close attention to your pet’s behavior, and can also provide regular photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for until you return.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is, my enthusiasm to get all of your animals outside having as much fun as we possibly can! I have been taking care of my own dogs for the past 4 years. Including giving medication, nail trimmings and everything else that comes along with being a pet parent! Pet care fits into my everyday routine because, I am currently taking care of 4 puppies for my grandparents. As well as helping my grandparents out with whatever they need assistance on. I will do whatever you ask me to do to care for your animals the right way! I will also make sure they get plenty of outside time to get that energy out!
“Stephen was absolutely wonderful watching Brick and Odie! He went above and beyond, sending us pictures, taking them on a nice walk, and keeping us updated. His communication was excellent, and we could tell our dogs were happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for his help and look forward to having him watch them again!”
“Our cat is terrified of outsiders - even family members. Cassidy charmed him out on their first meeting! We asked if she could do a check in on him once a day, refresh food and water, and stick around to be company for a short while. Each day we were gone, she would send us photos and short videos of our cat being pleasant and sociable! (I had half expected him to hide during visits while we were gone.) Not sure what charm Cassidy has with kitties, but I’m glad she has it! We plan to book with her again in the future.”
About: I have been a cat owner for the last 10 years to my beautiful kitty Grace. Before that, and during this time, I've pet sit cats of all ages for family and friends. I'm always excited to meet a new kitty for a cuddle session or game of chase the laser pointer.
About: As a cat owner myself, I know every cat has their own little personality! I've cared for cats over the years and am comfortable with everything from feeding and litter box cleaning to playtime and cuddles. Whether your cat is social and playful or prefers to do their own thing, I'm happy to follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your cat is in good hands.
“Kailyn took very good care of our two precious cats while we were away. She sent us LOTS of photos every day. Honestly, we’re not sure what was cuter – – the pictures of our kitties, or the fact that Kailyn took so many! Thanks, Kailyn and Rover!”
About: I have four dogs at home. I have experience with pet care through drop in visits and home care from puppies to an elderly cat.

I offer drop in visits to feed and/or let your pet outside mornings and nights. I also offer dog walking services to keep your fur babies active!
About: I have experience caring for cats of all ages through fostering and personal pet ownership. I’ve cared for everything from newborn orphaned kittens requiring bottle feeding to senior cats needing extra patience and specialized care. My experience includes socializing shy or fearful cats, caring for pregnant and nursing mothers, monitoring litter box habits and health concerns, administering medications when needed, and helping newly rescued cats adjust to home environments. I’ve also cared for multi-cat households (like my own!) and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and comfort level. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers their space, I’m committed to providing compassionate care while maintaining their normal routine and reducing stress while you’re away.

“Our terrier mix puppy has been going to Grace’s for a few weeks now (2x weekly for a full work day) and I can’t say enough good things! My husband and I found Grace because on the days my husband can’t come home during lunch, we didn’t want our puppy to be crated or left unattended all day. Grace and her family treat our puppy like their own dog, she becomes part of their family while she’s there. She gets tons of playtime, attention, affection. I absolutely love seeing the “report card” pictures after each day. It’s very clear my puppy is well cared for during her visits. It’s now to the point when we’re pulling up to Grace’s, our puppy gets excited because she knows where she’s at! 10/10 recommend!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve fostered and rescued dogs, cats, litters of puppies, and litters of kittens, giving me hands-on experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Through fostering, I’ve worked with a wide range of temperaments, including shy and fearful animals, high-energy pets, senior pets, and those needing extra patience and reassurance. I’m comfortable reading animal body language, following care instructions, administering basic medications when needed, and helping pets feel safe and comfortable while their families are away. As a pet owner and foster caregiver, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care and plenty of updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to treating your pets like they’re part of my own family! I currently work part time, mostly from home with flexible hours. I could easily accommodate your schedule so your baby is well taken care of when you are away.

Our home has a fully fenced yard and we’re ready to provide a safe, loving environment for your dog while you’re away! We own a business and operate out of our home so there’s always someone around to give your pet attention, feedings and potty breaks throughout the day. We provide attentive, loving care for your pet. Dogs are let out on a regular schedule for potty breaks, exercise, and fresh air. Weather permitting, they’ll enjoy supervised playtime in our fenced in yard. We give plenty of attention, belly rubs and companionship so your pup feels safe.
About: I have fifteen years of pet sitting experience. I sat for neighbors, family and friends. I will take your dogs for walks, clean out your cats litter boxes, and feed your pets. All pets need love and extra attention when their family is gone and I will give extra scratches and accommodations to make them feel right at home. I’m a part time preschool teacher with a flexible schedule. If your pet loves car rides, say no more they are more than welcome to come. Your furry friend will have a companion all day. If your pet requires medication, no problem I have experience with giving pills and shots. If your dog requires a bed to sleep nearby or in the bed that’s not a problem. We have a toddler bed for your pup to sleep on or a king size bed to share. My home has a fenced in yard and three friendly Golden Retrievers. I have four children in the home from ages 5-11. We have a quiet room that can be fenced off if your dog needs some quiet time.

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs, I was the kid who wanted to meet every pet I came across, and that passion has only grown into adulthood. Along with having my own two dogs and cat, I've spent years caring for the pets of friends and family, treating each one as if they were my own. I also worked as a stablehand at a local farm, where I cared for a wide variety of animals—including cats, dogs, horses, donkeys, goats, cows, and even swans. I've also volunteered with dog walking programs in the city, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. As a pet owner myself, I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your beloved companion with someone new. That's why my goal is to provide the same love, patience, and attention that I would want for my own pets. I believe communication, reliability, and attention to detail are incredibly important when caring for animals, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cozy couch cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal schedule, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Caring for animals has always been more than a job to me—it's something I truly enjoy, and I would love to help you! Pet care fits easily into my routine! I work a typical 9–5 during the week and have some flexibility for evening visits, but I primarily focus on pet care on weekends. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet and provide reliable, attentive care while you're away. I believe pets are happiest when they're able to stick to their normal routine, so I always do my best to follow each owner's instructions and provide care that's tailored to their pet's needs. Whether I'm stopping by for visits, going on walks, or caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'll keep up with feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and of course provide plenty of attention and updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. There were always multiple cats and dogs in my home growing up. My husband, three children (15,13,11) and myself love pets and have take care of family and friends' pets quite often, including bunnies and chickens! We had a large labradoodle with special needs in the past and currently have another large labradoodle. I am comfortable with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes and with giving meds as needed. My kids are always up for a snuggle also! I am a homeschool, stay at home mom of 3. Now that my children are older and more independent my schedule is rather flexible. We are active and walk often and can do school anywhere! Sometimes it would be just me but at times my children (15,13,11) would accompany me as well. We have a fenced in dog run which is very secure. If I am coming to your home I will follow any and all guidelines you have to make sure your pet is safe and happy and loved while you are away.
“Kendall has been wonderful with my rescue pup who’s experiencing a lot of separation anxiety since we moved and I’ve been having to travel for work a few days a week.

About: When I was 8 my father surprised me with our first ever dog Harley! I fell in love instantly and am so grateful to have grown up with him in our family. When I grew older I took on more rolls taking care of Harley which gave me basic experience in pet care. When he was a senior dog I learned a lot through his medical issues like how to handle medicine and emergency vet visits. Our late dog, Dobby gave me puppy experience showing me how much time, care, and patience is needed for little pups. Anything you need for your dog I’m willing to do! Im a part time college student who also works part time as a server! This opportunity seems like something that could perfectly for my unusual schedule. Dog walking and quick house stop-ins would be my speciality!

I’m a college girl looking for an opportunity that benefits both parties, it’s just a bonus that I love animals! In my care, you and your pets have absolutely nothing to worry about.

“Kaylee was AMAZING! Not only did she take great care of my pup, but she was super detailed and sweet - made him Easter egg treats 🥚💕 to take home! Kept me posted with adorable pics too. Highly recommend!”
“Lisa continues to be a great help to our family. Lucy knows her well now and always comes home in a great mood and a bit tuckered out. I miss Lucy so much while we are away but with the updates throughout her stay, I can see she's having just as much fun, if not more, on her vacation too.”
“Angelita is accommodating and her prices are reasonable. She was quick to respond to my request and she welcomed Aurora into her home with open arms. She texted me updates and photos to make sure I knew how things went. She also responded quickly to texts from me checking in. I will definitely book with Angelita again when I am in need of a sitter for our dog.”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“Our dog Henry stayed with Betsy and Ron for 6 days June 2026. They were fantastic in every way. Very friendly and interested in making sure Henry (and my wife and I) were completely comfortable with the arrangement during our vacation. We received frequent text updates with pictures which we truly appreciated. We would gladly book with them again in the future.”
“Muffy had a great experience staying with Meagan and family. Highly recommend Meagan and her services, would definitely revisit when looking for boarding and/or day care. Thank you Meagen for taking care of Muffy when we were out.”
“Very thankful for Beth's flexibility! She was able to watch my dog at her house (for the second time) when I had to go on a quick work trip with only a few days notice. She also sent me pictures of my dog to let me know that my dog was having fun!”
“Curtis took really good care of our dog while we were away. He was really excellent with updating us with pictures and how our dog was doing. Curtis made my dog feel comfortable and at ease. If i ever need a dog sitter, Curtis will be my first choice.”
“I cannot say enough great things about Alyssa! Our two doggos, Ava and Peyton, are two very unique pitties. Ava is 10 and is a nervous Nel who just likes to cuddle up and relax. Peyton is almost 3 and more like a wreck it Ralph. As worried as I was that Peyton would destroy their home or that Ava would have a heart attack, they ended up loving their stay! Not only that, but I could tell that they got exactly what they needed from Alyssa and her family because when we got home, Ava and Pey were spent. Alyssa always remained in contact with me and answered all my questions and accommodated a last minute request. Thanks, Alyssa!!!”
“Highly recommend Alexa! She has watched my pup Harley twice now— she is super responsive and sends daily updates/pics. Harley always comes home tired and happy from all the playtime”
“Our pup had an amazing time at her overnight stay with Samantha! Sam took great care to make sure she was having fun and had plenty of time to play. Love that there are other dogs around as well. We will definitely be booking again as I trust Sam to be sure my dog is safe and happy while we are away.”
“Mary is the first person we’ve ever left Dozer with and I felt so at ease knowing he was in a wonderful home with Mary. She sent me multiple updates and pictures of Dozer. It was so nice to be away knowing he was in such good hands 😊”
“Lily is absolutely amazing. She treats our Charlie like family. She’s reasonable and listens to your questions and concerns. We absolutely love her! Thank you Lily for treating our Charlie as your own”
“Neetika took very good care of our puppy for a week while we were on vacation. The sending of daily updates and photos was so appreciated, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time away without worry. I would recommend Neetika, she has a loving family and her own pup who I know our Khloe enjoyed playing with in-between napping.”
“Jo-Ellen is an outstanding Rover host!! She really went above and beyond to make sure Zoom was comfortable given this was only his second rover stay. I'm grateful for the A+ communication and attention given to Zoom. Her place is in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic and lots of grassy lawns. Definitely will be leaving Zoom with Jo-Ellen during future travels!”
