“Another great stay, Navi was so happy when we dropped her off! Navi always looks like she’s having fun in all of the cute photos and Jin provides detailed updates. We’re really glad to have found Jin and her family!”
“Cheyanne was amazing with my dog Courage. She was so kind and patient with him since it takes him awhile to be comfortable with people. They seemed like best buddies by the end of his stay. I can’t thank Cheyanne enough for taking such good care of him.”
“Ashley was awesome! Our dogs had a blast on their vacation. They even sent us photos sleeping in the big bed. We were happy to be reunited but they were so sad we ruined their party. Next time we have to go out of town without them hopefully Ashley's schedule is available because they would love to hang out with their new friend Carter again as well as their doggie sitter Mom.”
“Valerie and Juniper were the absolute sweetest. Valerie provided great communication and flexibility during Pee Wee’s stay. Pee wee had a great time hanging with the other pals, exploring outside, and getting cuddles. 10/10 recommend!”
“Kimberley was a savior for me on the last minute booking. My Gus loved her and her Donut and I’m pretty sure he didn’t want to come home after his two nights there. Her communication along with pics were incredible! I had some separation anxiety and she absolutely erased it. I will be forever indebted!”
“Trevor was a wonderful sitter for our dog with some unique special needs. He treated her like family and we felt she was left in great loving care. He was attentive and patient, great at communication, and a gem to work with. We are lucky to have found him.”
“Eddie was phenomenal with Kai. Kai can be pretty high energy but Eddie was great about finding time to take him out on walks even during a Rainy weekend. Felt super comfortable having Kai stay at their house for the weekend with all the great pupdates. Would definitely book with Eddie again in the future”
“Aimee was great as always with our little fluffball. She went above and beyond to take care of Coda as well as provide a fun, playful space for him to play with other fur pals who also joined him during the holiday. Coda is definitely missing his fun crew for sure! Until next time!”
“Joel gave daily updates on my dogs and was sweet about doing slow introductions with my dogs and his cats. Very communicative and’s easy to work with for drop off and pick up. It also helps that he works from home because my dog can be quite anxious and I also appreciate that he only watched my dogs, so I didn’t have to be nervous about what may happen with other rover dogs as well. Will book again. Thank you Joel!”
“I had the best experience with Wilson and Jessica! They were super communicative, and made me feel great about leaving my dog with them for 5 days. I got tons of photos and felt reassured that she was cared for and loved. Highly recommend!”
“Erika did an excellent job watching after our Peppercorn. Regular photo and video updates and our dog had plenty of other dogs to play with throughout her stay.”
“Brendan took great care of our pup, was easy and quick with communication, sent pics and updates, and was flexible with some last minute schedule changes. I would send our pup back anytime!”
“Cassandra was excellent! Her dog, Cory, was very sweet to our puppy and they got along well all weekend. Cassandra was very responsive and we could tell Stella had a great time when we picked her up. Best of all, she sent tons of pictures so we felt very comfortable all weekend knowing Stella was in good hands.”
“Highly recommend! My dog was so well taken care of and came home happy and relaxed. I received updates throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind. It’s clear they genuinely love and care for the dogs they watch. I’ll definitely be booking again!☺️💕”
“Leo enjoyed his stay with Chris and got plenty of playtime! He was very communicative, responsive, and sent pictures and updates each day during his stay. Would definitely book him again and recommend to others.”
“Yazmin has been so wonderful and loving with Oliver. She's sent a lot of pictures and stays in touch all the time. I highly recommend and know Oliver will stay there again.”
“My 6yo pup clearly loved staying with Juan and Annie. She was very well taken care of and enjoyed all the free time outside and walks. Feels good to find someone who looks after her so well.”
“Sarah is great! She was communicative and took great care of my dog. I got daily updates and photos of them playing, lounging and snuggling. Knowing my dog was safe and being cared for while I was away was great peace of mind.”

“Bhuvana was wonderful with our kitties! She played with them and sent so many cute photos. It really helped calm my mind and helped me relax being away from our fur babies. Having a trusted pet sitter is such a relief!! We will definitely book her again soon!”
“Very professional and took such good care of my fur babies. I got regular updates and photos and she followed all the special instructions so I felt at ease leaving them in her care.”
“Julia was great! Our kitties love her and she took such good care of them. She was super communicative and we felt very comfortable with her taking care of the kitties. We will definitely try to book Julia again when we go out of town!”
“This was our first time with Mariia and she did great with our mobility special cats! She’s great at following instructions, receptive to feedback, reliable and responsive. She sends lots of pictures and videos to let us know what they are eating, their potty habits, if they had any vomits (which she cleaned like a pro (thank you!)), and playtime/pets and scratches! Our one cat is kind of shy and she took the time for him to get used to her with each visit until he was (quickly) comfortable being out and about! She gave our love bug cats lots of scratches and pets as he requires it, lol. We asked Mariia on short notice since our usual cat sitters were unavailable, and although we were nervous with the boys meeting someone new/adapting, she did so well we were able to relax while away visiting family! She also went above and beyond and took our trash out when she noticed our neighbors had put thieves out. You can tell she cares for the animals under her watch and we came back to a peaceful home and critters that were able to quickly forgive us for leaving. We’d recommend Mariia for your kitty needs and are very thankful we found her for our 9 day trip home. :)”
“Marisa was great with my cat! She constantly provided updates and genuinely cared about him while I was out of town. She made my vacation much better by knowing I didn’t need to worry about my cat and that he was in good hands with Marisa. Thank you!”
“I had a great experience with Michelle! Having never used Rover before I wasn’t totally sure what to expect, but I feel lucky to have had her for my introduction to the app. Michelle was on time, easy to contact, and took a ton of cute photos of my kitty, which were so fun to receive while I was out of town. I would absolutely recommend Michelle to anyone! 😊”
“Yihung took incredible care of Jerry. We arrived home and she was well taken of. He followed my instructions exactly and it was great knowing she was looked after by someone smart and responsible! 💜”
“Our newly adopted cat was in amazing hands with Lara as we left town for a few days. She loved on him twice per day for drop in visits and made sure we got very thorough updates. Highly recommend her with your kitties! We came home to a very happy and well loved boy!”
“Kody gave very detailed updates with each visit and Loki, my shy, skiddish cat came out to see him after just 1 visit. I would ask Kody to care for my cats any time I was away.”
“Olivia was amazing with my dog, Finley!! She was great with communication, keeping me updated while I was out of town. I could tell from all the pictures he was very comfortable with her and had a great time. She also was willing to add a last minute drop in when my flight was delayed returning home!! Highly recommend!!”
“Clem was a fantastic sitter! They updated me thoroughly each day about my cat, and provided lots of pictures. Clem also had consistent timing with check ins and I came home to a very happy kitty after being away.”
About: I’ve cared for a wide range of pets growing up, including dogs, cats, fish, and small animals like guinea pigs. I have hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life—from raising my own dog from 8 weeks old to caring for senior dogs with more specialized needs. I live an active lifestyle and enjoy working with high-energy dogs, making sure they get the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to stay present, maintain routines, and give pets consistent care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I also prioritize clear communication and provide regular updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care is something I intentionally structure my day around, not something I fit in when I have time. Since I work remotely, I’m home and available throughout the day, which allows for consistent walks, playtime, and attention instead of long gaps alone. I live in a large home with a fully fenced yard, so dogs have safe, easy access to the outdoors for breaks and fresh air. I still make sure they get proper walks and activity based on their energy level—it’s not just yard time. I adjust my schedule to match each pet’s routine—whether that’s higher activity and stimulation or a calmer, more predictable pace—and focus on keeping their day consistent and low-stress. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, structured, and low-stress environment. I keep routines consistent with what they’re used to—feeding schedules, walks, and downtime—so the transition feels as natural as possible. Dogs have access to a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor breaks, along with regular walks and playtime based on their energy level. I’m home throughout the day, so they receive consistent supervision and attention rather than being left alone for long periods. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine and environment. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, walks, medications if needed—and make sure the pet stays comfortable in their familiar space. I’m respectful of the home, keep things clean, and provide regular updates so owners know how their pet is doing. In both settings, I focus on being attentive, reliable, and responsive to each pet’s individual needs.
“Blanca was amazing! She was so good with all of our cats and even earned the trust of our shy kitty who hides from everyone. She was super communicative and sent great updates detailing the visit. Truly a lovely experience 😻😻😻”
“Thomas is a reliable and professional sitter. He always replied quickly to my messages and provided excellent care for my cats while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Suzanne was so great and thorough, and it truly gave me such of peace of mind to know that someone so attentive was looking after our pet. She also provided really detailed updates with each visit, which gave me even more peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Suzanne to anyone looking for a petsitter.”
“Loving, Patient + Amazing Pet Sitter – Highly Recommend! We were so lucky to find Payton; she is the best! We couldn’t be more pleased with the care Payton provided for our 2 high-maintenance dogs. Payton was extremely professional, attentive, and loving towards our fur babies. She provided us tons of updates and adorable pictures during her visit.We will definitely be booking Payton again in the future! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. Thanks again, The Miller Fam”
“Eileen was amazing. I had to leave town for Christmas and couldn’t take my cat Barty with me. It was the first time we would be separated for several days so I was a little anxious. Eileen gave me so much peace of mind with her daily updates and photos! Barty looked very happy to see her every time, laying on her lap and just generally being his usual lovebug self. I came back to a clean smelling home (every cat owner knows the slight dread of wondering just what state the litter box will be in) and a calm cat who had clearly been well cared for in my absence.”

About: Hello! My name is JJ and I'm a trail runner that decided to combine the two things I love the most: exercise and animals. I have been providing pet care for dogs, cats and other household pets full-time for over 8 years in Austin now. I am currently providing pet care full-time during the week and often have weekend availability. As a pet parent and a user of Rover pet sitters myself, I know how important good communication and reliability is when you are away from your pet family. I prioritize responding promptly to all booking requests and communication throughout the duration of booked appointments. This includes happily answering questions, sending updates and pet pictures of each visit. For me, communication, transparency and trust are key to having a worry-free workday or trip away! PET CARE: *NEW* Now offering boarding and doggie daycare. My partner and I purchased a house in North Shoal Creek and can now host up to 4 dogs. My partner, Josh Cross, is a software developer and works from home, so visiting pets will always have a human companion while I am away on walks and check-ins. I offer check-ins for dogs, cats and other household pets, to give them food, water, bathroom breaks, clean litter boxes, etc. If there is ever a package or mail by the door, I always bring it inside, as well. WALKS: If your dog(s) just need a potty break and some exercise, I’m more than happy to go for 30-60 minute walks. I typically use my own waist leash, but I can use your leash, if preferred, and I have a tandem leash attachment to take two dogs for an outing together, if needed. RUNS: For dogs that like to run, I can jog at your dogs pace for 30-60 minutes. Slow or fast, with water breaks, walk breaks, and potty breaks. On hot days, I prioritize finding the shadiest routes in the area and run in the grass when possible. For running dogs, I prefer them to wear a body harness or gentle leader, if available. *I offer a limited number of dog runs per day depending on daily volume.* My love for animals comes from growing up with a family that spoiled inside pets of many species and sizes. I cherished my own chihuahua, Zeus, of 14 years. Nowadays, I share a big, sweet super-mutt named Ozzie with my partner, Josh. I currently have weekday availability during traditional work hours, but I also have some evenings and weekends available. I don’t prefer to book recurring weekly appointments on the weekends. I regularly keep my Rover calendar updated and list the dates I’m out of town in my profile, in case I don’t have reception on vacation, usually a camping trip. I prefer to use a waist leash, which is safer and more secure than holding a leash in my hand. Please supply waste bags and any treats you would like me to give to your pet.
About: Hi there! I’m a mom of energetic triplets and a lifelong dog lover. For the past 5+ years, I’ve been caring for friends’ dogs in my home, often with a full (and happy!) pack of up to five pups at a time. I work from home, which means your dog gets lots of attention, cuddles, and supervision throughout the day. My kids are with me 50% of the time, and they absolutely adore dogs — lots of love, belly rubs, and a little spoiling guaranteed! We have a big, fully fenced backyard for plenty of playtime. If your pup enjoys adventures, I try to make it out to the Domain dog park a few times a week. We currently have two dogs of our own: 🐾 A mellow 16-year-old who likes to keep to himself 🐾 A playful 2 year old who’s crate trained and full of energy — but I always set boundaries to keep things peaceful and positive. This is a loving, safe, and dog-friendly home. Whether your pup loves to play or just needs a cozy place to nap, they’ll feel right at home here. Let me know if you have any questions — I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I work full-time from home and take my dog to the park practically every day and I have a pretty light workload, which allows me to give lots of attention to all my furry friends . I spoil them with attention and very good with paying attention to each dogs needs and personalities . My visitors get plenty of rest, routine and I cater to any diet, exercise, and training needs that owners have.
About: I have been a dog owner for 8 years and have experience with post surgery, administering medicines, and senior dogs for 2 years. I’ve watched my several of my friend’s dogs and they all get along great with Tendie! I love to play with energetic dogs and relax and snuggle with lazy dogs. I have a good sized fenced in yard for dogs of all sizes to explore and sniff to their hearts desires! I work from home so I can accommodate any special bathroom or other timing needs. Tendie is a senior dog who does very well with other dogs and mostly keeps to himself after he’s met another dog. I work from home so I can accommodate any special timing needs your dog may have. I can let a dog out in my yard anytime of day for bathroom breaks and typically go on walks around 4-5pm, but can adjust if needed. I have a fully fenced in yard and live on a quiet street away from loud traffic and busy intersections. I also have several rooms to separate any dogs if some alone time is needed.
“Jen took great care of my little best friend! He was excited to arrive and meet the dogs of the house and they were excited to meet him! It is immediately obvious that Jen is a bone-a-fied (pun intended) Dog Person!”
About: I have about 10+ years of experience in care. I’ve been dog sitting since I was about 15. I have a lot of love to give, and I personally crate & potty trained my dogs. I’m currently a full-time student, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I spend most of my time studying from home, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I can’t wait to meet your babies! 💕 I live in a pet-friendly apartment with plenty of walking areas nearby. I take dogs outside regularly for potty breaks, walks, and playtime, always ensuring their safety and comfort during every outing.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have cared for over five dogs of different sizes, breeds, and ages with my family. From playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, I understand how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs and personality. I love spending time playing, walking, and giving dogs the attention they deserve. Whether it’s belly rubs, outdoor play, or quiet company, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and happy! Besides dogs, I love all animals! I have had bunnies and birds before and know how to take care of them! I work remotely full-time, which which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout their stay. My daily routine is flexible, so I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, cuddle time, medication routines, and regular check-ins. I like to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. Whether they need active play, quiet company, extra patience, or a calm space to relax, I do my best to adjust my day around their comfort and needs! I live in a spacious apartment that offers plenty of room for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well supervised! I got my two friendly American Shorthair cats at home, so I’m very mindful about introductions, boundaries, and each pet’s comfort level. I always take time to understand how each pet does around other animals! If a pet needs their own space, quiet time, or a slower introduction, I make sure they have a calm area where they can relax. I keep the environment clean, organized, and peaceful so every pet feels cared for during their stay!
“I had a wonderful experience. I showed up completely forgetting my pup’s belongings and didn’t get a chance to drive home to grab his stuff. They were very accommodating and helped me feel at ease with text updates and photos. When I picked up my pup his tail was wagging and I could tell he had a good time. Will definitely use their services again! Thanks again for everything !”
“We were in town for a short visit and needed a place for our pup to stay for several hours. Jin and her husband were very friendly, responsive, and sent many picture updates. Highly recommend and would definitely rebook when we’re back in Austin!”
“David was great for daycare with our dog! He responded promptly, took care to understand our dog's needs and was provided us with photos and updates throughout the day. He also provided us with a framed portrait of our dog at the end of the day, which was an awesome gesture. Would highly recommend David for doggy daycare or boarding!”
“Casandra took great care of Niko during my day trip out of Austin. When I picked up Niko, he was happy and tired! Casandra made sure Niko got along with her dog Cory by having a meet-and-greet beforehand. She also updated me with a lot of photos from the day. Would definitely drop Niko off with her and Cory again! Thanks, Casandra.”
“Yujie is an incredibly responsible dog sitter. He made sure to take time to meet Monty beforehand, which helped us confirm they were a great fit and left us with a good feeling. During the visit, he took wonderful care of Monty and sent us pictures throughout the day! Monty clearly loved being with him and is eager to visit again soon.”
“Great experience overall. Aimee is personable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs she watches. I feel safe leaving my dogs with her and will definitely be coming back!”

“Linda was great to work with! My dog absolutely loved being with her - after the second day he'd go willingly wait in his kennel for the morning pick-ups while I was getting ready for work. Linda was so communicative throughout the day, flexible when my schedule changed, and also very communicative in scheduling the day care. I would hands down use her again! Oh - I also loved receiving the daily cards and updates at the end of each session.”

About: I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, medication if needed, and plenty of photo updates while you’re away. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to spend most of the day with your pet. I can provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of companionship.

“Kody was great. Came for a meet and greet and seemed genuinely interested in what Theo’s needs were. Arrived for Theo’s walk on time and sent a few photos and a nice update. Was kind and considerate with all of our instructions as we have a lot of concerns due to Theo’s size and medical history.”
About: I spent more than a decade loving a very large, very opinionated German Shepherd named Ruta through epilepsy, severe allergies, endless medication schedules, and his senior years, so “high-maintenance” pets don’t scare me. I tend to love them even harder. These days I’m supervised by Edwin, my mini Aussie rescue, who has strong opinions about other dogs, delivery trucks, and apparently several completely innocent squirrels. Living with him has made me very comfortable with boundaries, reactivity, slow introductions, and the fact that not every dog wants to be everybody’s friend. I’m also the person who genuinely wants the six-paragraph document explaining exactly how your dog likes breakfast. Give me the quirks, the routines, the medications, the weird little rules, the favorite toy, the thing they absolutely will not do unless you ask them in a very specific way. I want to know all of it. Basically: I take your pet seriously without taking myself too seriously. And yes, I will probably send you too many pictures. My schedule is pretty flexible, which means I can usually work around your pet’s normal routine. Walks, meals, potty breaks, meds, couch hangs; tell me what they’re used to and I’ll do my best to keep things consistent. Tell me everything. What’s their routine? What makes them nervous? Are they an escape artist? A sock eater? Do they lose their mind when a skateboard goes by? How are they on leash? I’m big on respecting a pet’s boundaries and keeping their routine as familiar as possible. I’d much rather know about a quirk or trigger ahead of time than be surprised by it later.
About: I am an animal lover and have had dogs and cats my whole life. I work full time from my home and would love to care for your pet! I currently work at home and will hang out with your dog all day! I have 3 breaks, 2 15 minutes (1130 am and 3:15pm) and one 30 minute lunch break at 1pm. I will take out the dog in the morning as well before I start work at 9am. After that, they can hang with me in my room while I work and I will make sure to give them lots of pets!!! I have no other pets and I don't mind the dog on my furniture. I just want them to be comfortable with the A/C on and a full water bowl so they can feel at home!
“Olivia is great she is very polite, professional and attentive with my pet's needs and has great communication skills I can be at work and know my pet is in good hands. I would highly recommend her services!”
“Yihung is incredible with our pup Winnie. He took the time to visit her and take her around the block to make sure everything went smoothly. He shared plenty of photos along the way. No doubt, we’ll be regulars of Yihung moving forward!!”
“April was exceptional. It was a last minute booking and she was so beyond accommodating. We will be asking April back whenever she’s available! Love, Corbin and Little Bear”
About: I have been surrounded by animals and family responsibilities my entire life, and caring for others is a core part of who I am. Growing up in a busy, dedicated pet-owning family, I spent years helping look after my little sister and raising three different dogs across all life stages. My first childhood dog, Fonzie, sparked my deep bond with animals early on. Later, our second family dog, Crembo, was my constant companion from the time I was seven years old until she passed away fifteen years later. Caring for her throughout her senior years gave me immense, hands-on experience handling aging pets and maintaining gentle, patient daily routines. Today, our family dog Kiwi has been a huge part of my life since I was sixteen, keeping me fully dialed into the daily energy, habits, and exercise needs of active pets. In addition to dogs, my family has also kept fish tanks my entire life, giving me a lifelong familiarity with maintaining basic aquarium care. Beyond my own family, I have a proven track record of independent responsibility when looking after other people's homes and pets, including a wide variety of dogs, cats, and fish. For nearly three years during high school, a neighbor hired me to care for her dog, Splenda, almost every single day after school. I managed her afternoon routine for an hour or two daily, ensuring she got her exercise, fresh water, and companionship before her owner returned from work. This long-term commitment taught me the absolute importance of punctuality and consistency in an animal's life. Over the years, I have regularly house-sat and pet-sat for various people, which includes managing feeding schedules and daily care specifically for a close family friend's cat over many successful stays. These experiences often involved staying at properties entirely alone overnight or managing them independently during the day. Because of this, I am highly adaptable to different home security systems, household rules, and unique pet personalities. My background working as a camp counselor and professional bartender also adds a strong layer to my reliability. I am deeply accustomed to high-trust environments, handling unexpected situations with a cool head, and maintaining strict organizational standards. Working in hospitality means I am naturally obsessed with cleanliness and organization, closing down spaces spotlessly, and keeping environments completely neat and tidy. I am fully accustomed to managing daily household chores and handling a property responsibly while owners are away, treating every home with the exact same respect I give my own. I recently relocated to Austin and I'm in the process of picking up part-time bartending shifts, which works out well for both of us — I get the time, and your pet gets someone who's actually around. I've got a sweet dog, Kiwi, back home, and I've missed having that kind of company since moving, so I'd love having a pet around again. My schedule is wide open — I'm available every day, any time, including weekends. Most of my days are spent job hunting, settling into the city, and just being around the house, so I'm home and available a lot, not squeezing visits in between other things. If your pet wants extra walks, more playtime, or just someone hanging around keeping them company, I'm happy to make that part of my day. I treat every client's home and pets the way I'd want mine treated. Since I only provide care in your home (house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking), my focus is making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own space, and that your home is exactly how you left it when you get back. Household Security & Care: I'll double-check doors and gates, make sure the alarm's set, bring in mail or packages, and keep things clean and tidy the whole time I'm there, like you never left. Safety on Walks: Dogs stay securely leashed, and I keep an eye out for other dogs, traffic, and Texas heat on the pavement. I'm also a bigger guy, so if your dog's a puller, gets nervous in busy spots and needs to be held close, or just needs a lift now and then, even a big dog, that's genuinely no trouble for me. Routine & Health Monitoring: I'll stick to your exact feeding, medication, and exercise routine, and I pay attention to how they're acting, eating, and moving so I notice early if something feels off. Communication: You'll get daily photos, a quick note on how walks and meals went, and a fast reply whenever you reach out, so you're not left wondering how things are going.
About: Hii my name is Nizar! I have 7+ years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I’ve lived with both dogs and cats, and regularly help friends with pet sitting, walks, and daily care. I’m comfortable with all sizes, from small dogs to large breeds, and have experience with puppies through senior pets (up to 13 years old). I’m attentive, reliable, and always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I also provide regular photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I have a flexible schedule. I’m most available on weekends and Mondays/Fridays, and can also accommodate morning or evening visits during the week. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine to ensure they get the care and attention they need. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment, in a very walkable neighborhood that’s great for regular walks and outdoor time. I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and a calm, comfortable environment while in my care. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s routine closely and can accommodate specific needs or preferences. If your pet is more comfortable in their own space, I’m also open to house sitting.
“Juan was excellent with our dog, Tina. Communication was great throughout the entire experience. He kept us updated and sent pictures, which gave us peace of mind. It was clear that Tina was well cared for and comfortable with him. We truly appreciated his reliability and attention to detail. I would definitely recommend Juan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
“Leigh is a great communicator! You can tell she's very conscientious about her responsibility of caring for your dog. I trust she will let me know of any concerns that should arise during her time with my dog.”
About: I’ve worked with many different dogs and cats at both kennels and boarding facilities for the past 2 years, I enjoy caring for dogs and cats of all kinds I would like the opportunity to continue caring for dogs and cats I am available for any time of the day needed. I will be happy to care for any pet that is needed to be looked after, walked or played with I have 4cats, clean their litter boxes 3-4 times daily, feed them 2 times daily and makes sure their water is full and clean.
“Francis is wonderful! He was agreeable to a meet-and-greet prior to starting services, took a genuine interest in finding out Beckett’s specific needs, and has always been punctual. I’ve been very impressed by his communication, ability to manage Beckett (who has a tendency to pull), and his patience and willingness to work on improving Beckett’s walking. Beckett can take a while to warm up to people, but he warmed up to Francis quickly and has been loving the walks! I’d highly recommend Francis to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, experienced dog walker!”
About: I’ve cared for a wide range of pets growing up, including dogs, cats, fish, and small animals like guinea pigs. I have hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life—from raising my own dog from 8 weeks old to caring for senior dogs with more specialized needs. I live an active lifestyle and enjoy working with high-energy dogs, making sure they get the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to stay present, maintain routines, and give pets consistent care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I also prioritize clear communication and provide regular updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care is something I intentionally structure my day around, not something I fit in when I have time. Since I work remotely, I’m home and available throughout the day, which allows for consistent walks, playtime, and attention instead of long gaps alone. I live in a large home with a fully fenced yard, so dogs have safe, easy access to the outdoors for breaks and fresh air. I still make sure they get proper walks and activity based on their energy level—it’s not just yard time. I adjust my schedule to match each pet’s routine—whether that’s higher activity and stimulation or a calmer, more predictable pace—and focus on keeping their day consistent and low-stress. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, structured, and low-stress environment. I keep routines consistent with what they’re used to—feeding schedules, walks, and downtime—so the transition feels as natural as possible. Dogs have access to a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor breaks, along with regular walks and playtime based on their energy level. I’m home throughout the day, so they receive consistent supervision and attention rather than being left alone for long periods. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine and environment. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, walks, medications if needed—and make sure the pet stays comfortable in their familiar space. I’m respectful of the home, keep things clean, and provide regular updates so owners know how their pet is doing. In both settings, I focus on being attentive, reliable, and responsive to each pet’s individual needs.
About: I LOVE a good walk. In the later years of my dog, I was very attentive of joint health and trying to keep her comfortable. Their comfort is my joy. I treat animals how I would like to be treated. Much love and care. Let me know if you need anything. I work full time at a grocery store. Unfortunately,I had to say goodbye to my Abby a few months ago. Let me know if I can be of any assistance to you. I have a full time job with strange hours. I do not have a set schedule but I always get my schedule for the next week by Wednesday. Making plans a week in advance works best for me but I'll let you know if there's time the week of also! I will abide by any treat rules and keep the space clean to come back to! Much love and care to anything I do (:
