“This was the second time Jennifer has cared for my fur baby, and I couldn’t be happier. My little one was so well taken care of and given lots of love and attention. It gives me such peace of mind knowing my pet is always in such caring hands. Truly grateful!””
“A'Briana was great! She kept me updated everyday as to how my anxious girl was doing and even sent pictures. Sophie is a 3 1/2 yo Golden Retriever who has rarely left our side, so warming up in a new house takes a bit. Soph came home happy and exhausted - she went straight upstairs to bed on her own and that never happens! Thank you for giving us peace of mind for the weekend. We will def be using her services in the future!”

“My first time using Rover… last minute booking and came across Catherine, finding her amazing reviews confidently sold me. Catherine was quick to respond and sent a pic daily, even though my old girl mostly snuggles and sleeps. Highly recommend!”
“Miranda was great with our pup, Charlie! She kept us well informed throughout the stay with photos and videos and was very flexible with our pickup time when our travel schedule got delayed. Really glad we got the opportunity for our pup to stay with Miranda!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Maria! She took incredible care of my puppy while I was on vacation, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. She sent regular updates, adorable photos, and kept me in the loop without me even having to ask. It was clear my pup was happy, well-loved, and in great hands. Coming home to a relaxed and content dog said it all. Maria was reliable, professional, and truly went above and beyond. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, she’s the one!”

About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, and other pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve worked with everything from high-energy puppies to senior pets that require extra patience and attention. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering basic medications, and ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

I have two pets of my own, with very simple schedules! I’m very good a paying attention to what your fur baby will need.

About: I was born and raised with St Bernard’s, Irish Setters and miniature poodles as well mutts, ducks, cats, birds etc. I have continued to have pets in my life through my adulthood. The last of my pack of 5 has now past away. I love dogs so much I volunteer in the pet community and have a non profit to help educate, maintain and build off leash dog parks. Responsible pet ownership is very important to me. As someone who had a pack of 5, all sizes, breds and ages and health, understand the need to have someone you trust care for your pet, at least as good as you would!! Rescue, special needs and seniors have a special place in my heart ❤️🐾 I look forward to meeting you and your fur family!! I have a flexible schedule working remotely from my home. I usually know what I have to be in front of the computer for at least a week in advance and work around where I need to be and when. Because I work remotely I am able to stay with your pet. Let’s set up a meet and greet to get to know each other before you need my services. Your fur family is a priority. I love to share time with your family. If they want to play, or snuggle or just know someone is there. I am flexible. I work remotely the majority of the time giving me the opportunity to be with your pets the majority of the time. I also limit the amount of other families I care for at one time, so I can give more of my attention to your family. I follow your rules, or example allowing them or not on furniture, specific snacks, or okay time routines. If you allow I’d love to snuggle with them through the night in bed with me.
About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime, just have to work around my husbands schedule! But that shouldn’t be an issue. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily
“Tammy came by to feed the cats and change their litter boxes while we were away. She was great with the cats, and very respectful of our home while we were away. She did a great job! We would not hesitate to hire her again.”
About: I bring more than just pet-sitting experience—I bring heart. As a devoted cat mom to two spirited male cats, I understand the rhythms, quirks, and quiet needs of feline life firsthand. Whether it’s administering medications with a calm touch or tuning into subtle shifts in behavior, I care for each cat as if they were my own. I specialize in creating peaceful, hygienic environments—yes, even deep-cleaning litter boxes is part of my joy. I believe that a clean space is a loving space, and I take pride in maintaining comfort and calm for every creature in my care. From playful pounces to midnight meows, I’ve lived the full spectrum of cat companionship. I offer intuitive, compassionate care tailored to each animal’s personality, and I’m honored to support their well-being while you're away.
“Ayla-Lynnette graciously accepted my last minute request for her to take care of my cats while I was gone on vacation with my husband. She was easygoing, flexible, knowledgeable, and understanding. I would definitely book her again.”
About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself.
About: I have my own ESA cat and French Bulldog. I take very well care of my pets and assure you I will take the best care of yours! I love going on walks so adding an animal to that wouldn’t be so bad. I work part time and do this on the side for fun. I keep my space very clean and/or yours and feed and care for the dog or cat per the owners instructions. Every animal owner is different.
About: I am negotiable with pricing depending on needs/location! Please message me! I will respond same day guaranteed. I have had my own fur babies and have taken care of them from as young as I can remember. I have pet sit for friends and family for many many years. I walk, feed, bathe, play, care for, and watch pets at their home. I have four cats and a dog & love them bunches. I treat everyone’s pets as if they were my own. Which means lots of love and snuggles!! I follow instructions very well. I’m always excited to meet fur babies!! I am realtor and have my own set schedule. I am able to drop by anytime of the day and stay for as long as needed! I do not offer housing in my home because I live in a townhome without a fenced in backyard. However, if you have a puppy or kitten (or small animal) I’d be happy to reconsider!! In your home I make sure your animals feel loved and are taken care of. I feed them per your desired amounts and make sure they have fresh water. I play with them to make sure they let some energy loose. I also will take them for walks or play with them outside with toys! I also ALWAYS leave the home as how I found it. Which includes cleaning any messes made. *If you are out of town, I will not do only one drop in per day. I personally feel an animal should have at least two drop ins per day if alone for multiple days. Reasons are: 1. For potty breaks 2. So they are able to stretch 3. So they do not feel any type of separation anxiety, get frustrated, or get scared. (I am willing to reconsider based on certain situations.)
“Carly is the best!! She was very responsive and accommodating in the booking process, and during her visits she was so loving to my cat Dill - including lots of snuggles and play time!”
About: I was raised on a ranch so I've been exposed to all kind of care. I've also worked in pet boarding. I know how to do basic care to administering insulin. I also can take care of reptiles, avian and aquatics I'm currently working in between part time and full time at a petstore while also saving to go to school as a vet tech. My schedule changes weekly but is normally pretty open. I can come over as often as needed to deliver the upmost and personalized care for every one of my clients. Anywhere from having just basic check ins to over night stays and administration of medicine
“Kayla was amazing! I needed a sitter very last minute and she was perfect. She was prompt in answering the booking request and any messages. She took amazing care of my crazy pups and made sure to keep me updated on how they were doing and made sure everyone ate and went potty. Will 100% be using her again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Dover
About: I’m a Licensed Vet tech and can take care of small animals. From older puppies to seniors. I’ll take care of them like my own dog. I’m looking towards working and can help out in many ways for your pets needs. From feeding to going out to go potty, and even naps! I walk them out the potty. And have 2 dogs to keep them company. I have crate to put them in at night, if needed.
About: I bring dedicated, loving care to every dog I sit, with a strong focus on daily walks, interactive playtime, and personalized attention that keeps tails wagging. Skilled in reading body language, managing feeding schedules, and providing calm, patient support for pups of all ages and energy levels, I treat each dog like my own. What sets me apart is my genuine commitment to building trust—offering consistent updates with photos and notes, going the extra mile with extra belly rubs and enrichment activities, and creating a stress-free environment so owners can relax knowing their furry family member is happy, safe, and well-loved. As a stay-at-home mom, dog sitting blends beautifully into my daily and weekly life, letting me give your pup the dedicated time and affection they deserve. My home-based routine means I’m available for morning outings, midday play breaks, evening wind-downs, and everything in between. Weekdays are wonderfully open once family tasks are done, while weekends offer even greater flexibility for overnights or extra adventures. I love building a trusting bond through consistent walks, fun activities, and plenty of belly rubs—creating a stress-free, happy experience so your furry family member feels right at home while you’re away. I have a fenced back yard that can ensure the safety of you fur babies while they are out an about doing their business. My Dog Cooper gets along really well with other dogs and loves to play! Your fur babies will have time inside and also time out side. I will require a crate for the night when its bed time as i dont want the dogs out and about while my family sleeps. Overall I will take care of your babies as if they are my own and love them, play with them ,and have fun with them!
About: My approach to pet care is rooted in patience, genuine love, and treating every dog as a valued member of the family. With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and puppies, I deeply understand that pets require more than just basic needs. They thrive on love, reliable structure, and a comfortable place to stay while you are away. My goal is simple: to give pet parents complete peace of mind during vacations or work trips, knowing their animal is in safe and genuinely loving hands. I am excited to shower your beloved companion with care and make a new connection. I am a stay at home mom so I would be able to adjust to almost any schedule. I would be able to give one on one care to your special pup! I would love your dog to be able to make a comfortable living space. We have a small fenced in yard to play and potty breaks, but I am very comfortable with leash walking for bathroom breaks and exercise. We are able to use a crate if needed for night time, I also don’t mind a dog sleeping on our couch for added comfort if that’s what the dog is comfortable with. I truly want it to be a specialized and adjustable experience to whatever the fur baby needs.
“Maria took amazing care of our baby ! Our puppy has a lot of energy and Maria was super accommodating to our baby’s need. She updated me throughout and send pictures while we were away. She also accepted the booking even tho it was pretty last minute. Would highly recommend her and would book with her again!”
About: I have taken care of pet’s since I was a kid from family pet’s to friends to walking neighbors dogs. Whether your pup is wanting to take a nap on its bed, or chase squirrels in the back yard or take a stroll around the block I’m here to accommodate his/her needs. I work from home majority of the time, the most I’m out of the house is 4 hours consecutively. When I am away and at night I lock the pet’s in their own crate ( unless they have a “thunder-buddy”) to ensure their safety so no accidents happen. Your pet’s health and safety is my top concern. I have a child in home so his safety is also my concern. I know new places and people can give some pup/s anxiety and not all dogs do well with kids. If your doggo is anxious around kids please let me know so that way I can ensure my families safety while also accommodating and ensuring your pet is at ease while in my care. I have a fenced back yard for your pet to get adequate outside time, If your pet likes walks I am happy to take them for a stroll around the block, I am firm on sticking to your pet’s feeding times and will accommodate that to my best ability. I provide treats and toys to pets that are cared for in my home, if your pet requires any type of special care ( allergies, anxiety, food aggression, hyperactive, etc) please don’t hesitate to tell me so I can make sure I am providing your baby the best service possible.
“Savana was great! I had to book last minute due to my poor planning and was not sure how long I would actually need her help. She was so accommodating and my pup seemed to love his time there. 10/10 recommend!”
“They loved every second - playing with the other dogs and kids, relaxing on the couch and watching tv. It worked out perfect because Ashleigh was off work for the summer :) They got a lot of love and attention while I had to work! I was very comfortable leaving them for the day and will schedule again!”
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is the kindness and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I truly understand that every dog is unique, whether they’re a bouncy puppy learning the ropes, a senior dog needing gentle care, or a shy pet who just needs a little extra love to feel safe. I approach every pet with compassion, making sure they feel at ease and cherished in my care. From creating a nurturing routine to sending heartfelt updates to owners, I treat every furry friend like they’re part of my own family. Their happiness and comfort are always my top priorities. Lo que me distingue como cuidadora de mascotas es la amabilidad y la paciencia que le brindo a cada mascota que cuido. Entiendo verdaderamente que cada perro es único, ya sea un cachorro saltarín que está aprendiendo a comportarse, un perro mayor que necesita cuidados suaves o una mascota tímida que solo necesita un poco más de amor para sentirse segura. Trato a cada mascota con compasión, asegurándome de que se sienta a gusto y querida bajo mi cuidado. Desde crear una rutina de cuidado hasta enviar actualizaciones sinceras a los dueños, trato a cada amigo peludo como si fuera parte de mi propia familia. Su felicidad y comodidad son siempre mis principales prioridades. 🐶🐱❤️ Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I make sure to set aside dedicated time to care for pets, whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening cuddles. Each day starts with planning to ensure pets have everything they need, from meals and playtime to exercise and companionship. I adapt my schedule to fit the specific needs of each pet, whether that means flexible times for potty breaks, feeding, or quiet time for older dogs. On a weekly basis, I create a routine that maintains a pet’s consistency and comfort while making sure to have time for new activities and learning opportunities for puppies or energetic dogs. Pet care isn’t just a job—it’s a fulfilling part of my day that brings me joy and allows me to build strong bonds with each animal I look after. El cuidado de mascotas es una parte integral de mi rutina diaria y semanal. Me aseguro de reservar un tiempo específico para cuidar de las mascotas, ya sea con paseos matutinos, sesiones de juego al mediodía o abrazos por la noche. Cada día comienza con una planificación para asegurarme de que las mascotas tengan todo lo que necesitan, desde comidas y tiempo de juego hasta ejercicio y compañía. Adapto mi horario para satisfacer las necesidades específicas de cada mascota, ya sea con horarios flexibles para ir al baño, alimentarlas o momentos de tranquilidad para los perros mayores. Cada semana, creo una rutina que mantiene la consistencia y la comodidad de la mascota, al mismo tiempo que me aseguro de tener tiempo para nuevas actividades y oportunidades de aprendizaje para los cachorros o los perros enérgicos. El cuidado de mascotas no es solo un trabajo, es una parte gratificante de mi día que me brinda alegría y me permite construir vínculos fuertes con cada animal que cuido. When caring for pets at a client’s home, I make their safety and comfort my top priorities. I start by getting familiar with their daily routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any special needs or preferences. I ensure the home is secure by checking for potential hazards and making sure doors and gates are properly closed. During walks or play sessions, I stay attentive to keep them safe from traffic, other animals, or any unexpected situations. I provide interactive play, walks, and plenty of affection to keep pets engaged and happy. If any special care is needed, like administering medication or following a specific diet, I make sure to follow the owner’s instructions exactly. Building trust with both the pet and their owner is important, so I keep communication open with regular updates and photos. My goal is to create a comforting environment where pets feel at ease and loved, allowing their owners to feel confident and relaxed while they’re away. Cuando cuido mascotas en la casa de un cliente, hago de su seguridad y comodidad mis principales prioridades. Empiezo por familiarizarme con su rutina diaria, incluidos los horarios de alimentación, las pausas para ir al baño y cualquier necesidad o preferencia especial. Me aseguro de que la casa sea segura comprobando si hay peligros potenciales y asegurándome de que las puertas y portones estén bien cerrados. Durante los paseos o las sesiones de juego, me mantengo atenta para mantenerlos a salvo del tráfico, otros animales o cualquier situación inesperada. Ofrezco juegos interactivos, paseos y mucho cariño para mantener a las mascotas ocupadas y felices. Si se necesita algún cuidado especial, como administrar medicamentos o seguir una dieta específica, me aseguro de seguir exactamente las instrucciones del dueño. Generar confianza tanto con la mascota como con su dueño es importante, por lo que mantengo la comunicación abierta con actualizaciones y fotos periódicas. Mi objetivo es crear un entorno reconfortante donde las mascotas se sientan a gusto y amadas, lo que permite que sus dueños se sientan seguros y relajados mientras están fuera.🐾

I love building a trusting bond through consistent walks, fun activities, and plenty of belly rubs—creating a stress-free, happy experience so your furry family member feels right at home while you’re away. I have a fenced back yard that can ensure the safety of you fur babies while they are out an about doing their business. My Dog Cooper gets along really well with other dogs and loves to play! Your fur babies will have time inside and also time out side. I will require a crate for the night when its bed time as i dont want the dogs out and about while my family sleeps. Overall I will take care of your babies as if they are my own and love them, play with them ,and have fun with them!
About: I’m a Licensed Vet tech and can take care of small animals. From older puppies to seniors. I’ll take care of them like my own dog. I’m looking towards working and can help out in many ways for your pets needs. From feeding to going out to go potty, and even naps! I walk them out the potty. And have 2 dogs to keep them company. I have crate to put them in at night, if needed.
About: My approach to pet care is rooted in patience, genuine love, and treating every dog as a valued member of the family. With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and puppies, I deeply understand that pets require more than just basic needs. They thrive on love, reliable structure, and a comfortable place to stay while you are away. My goal is simple: to give pet parents complete peace of mind during vacations or work trips, knowing their animal is in safe and genuinely loving hands. I am excited to shower your beloved companion with care and make a new connection. I am a stay at home mom so I would be able to adjust to almost any schedule. I would be able to give one on one care to your special pup! I would love your dog to be able to make a comfortable living space. We have a small fenced in yard to play and potty breaks, but I am very comfortable with leash walking for bathroom breaks and exercise. We are able to use a crate if needed for night time, I also don’t mind a dog sleeping on our couch for added comfort if that’s what the dog is comfortable with. I truly want it to be a specialized and adjustable experience to whatever the fur baby needs.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals, grew up on a farm, and currently live on one. I currently work with horses. I quit nursing to do something I love and work with animals. If I cannot give your animal the care I would expect mine to get for some reason, I won't take the job. I currently work with horses every day. I live on a farm where we have goats 🐐, horses 🐎, chickens 🐔, a pig 🐖, cats 🐈, dogs 🐕, a rabbit 🐇, and a guinea pig so I'm no stranger to animals. I care for my clients pets as if they are my own. If my scheduling conflicts with their care, I will simply turn the job down because it's just not fair to them. I'm not really about leaving them locked up. I enjoy playing with them, walking them, and getting to know their personalities.

Clean water bowls, fresh bedding, and a tidy environment aren’t just details—they’re part of how I show love. I take pride in creating a space where dogs feel safe, soothed, and seen.
About: I've cared for dogs big and small since I was eleven. I've watched pets, dogs and cats, for my neighbors and family who needed a caregiver while they're out. I've given the animals baths, walked them around their neighborhood, kept them fed and cared for, and I've stayed the night at my relatives for their dogs. They're typically calm and happy around me, despite separation anxiety. I love animals more than most people! I have full open availability with no other pressing school or work obligations. Sitting and dog walking fits perfectly into my routine as a very active person who needs a lot of walking and stimulation myself. It depends on what the client has provided for me at their home and what they have instructed me to do. I'll take them outside or keep them in per the owners' requests.
About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself. When it comes to my fur babies - they have been a part of my life for nearly a decade. Whether its my own, families, or friends - I'm always striving to offer my attention and care to making sure our four legged friends are not only taken care of but shown love. I'm blessed that I routinely get to balance my week by reducing the burden on pet parents seeing more of my furry friends! I live in a house with a fenced in back yard and a cat that is a sweetheart. I treat other people's pet like my own.
About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.

About: I am negotiable with pricing depending on needs/location! Please message me! I will respond same day guaranteed. I have had my own fur babies and have taken care of them from as young as I can remember. I have pet sit for friends and family for many many years. I walk, feed, bathe, play, care for, and watch pets at their home. I have four cats and a dog & love them bunches. I treat everyone’s pets as if they were my own. Which means lots of love and snuggles!! I follow instructions very well. I’m always excited to meet fur babies!! I am realtor and have my own set schedule. I am able to drop by anytime of the day and stay for as long as needed! I do not offer housing in my home because I live in a townhome without a fenced in backyard. However, if you have a puppy or kitten (or small animal) I’d be happy to reconsider!! In your home I make sure your animals feel loved and are taken care of. I feed them per your desired amounts and make sure they have fresh water. I play with them to make sure they let some energy loose. I also will take them for walks or play with them outside with toys! I also ALWAYS leave the home as how I found it. Which includes cleaning any messes made. *If you are out of town, I will not do only one drop in per day. I personally feel an animal should have at least two drop ins per day if alone for multiple days. Reasons are: 1. For potty breaks 2. So they are able to stretch 3. So they do not feel any type of separation anxiety, get frustrated, or get scared. (I am willing to reconsider based on certain situations.)
