“Aine was amazing with Bono. Bono developed a severe allergy to something during his stay and Aine took Bono to our vet and even bathed him in the medication shampoo so he would feel much better. Though we were out of town, we felt comforted that Bono was in such good care. Thank you so much!”
“Cashew had a great time! I could tell from the many pic updates that he was well loved and cared for. Gol was extra accomodating when I ran into car trouble and I couldnt pick up my dog until hours after the original drop off time. Will definitely use again!”
“Marissa is amazing and took such wonderful care of our little Uchi! It was our first time having someone outside of our family and friends care for him and we could not have been happier. Lots of pictures and updates and overall an amazing, seamless experience!”
“Denise was a communicative and thoughtful host to my 9 year old Corgi, Gus. She watched him over July 4th weekend and administered meds/ cared for my nervous pup as if he was her own! Denise gave great updates and was flexible with drop off and pick up. Will definitely reach out the next time we need a dog-sitter. Thanks Denise!!”

“Ziggy loved his stay Amane & her husband. They took him on lots of walks, and adventures in town. There happened to be another dog there and Ziggy seemed to enjoy having another dog to play with. Amane sent photos & detailed notes each day, which we appreciated. Ziggy was so calm when we picked him up. I think he truly enjoyed his stay! I highly recommend Amane and will book again.”
“Michelle was fantastic with our girl Lily. Highly recommend her to take great care of your little one. Traveling for work for the week and never worried that my little one wasn’t taken care of. She sent updates and pics and had excellent communication. I couldn’t ask for anything more to feel secure with leaving my furry family member for the week. Her dog is super sweet too!”
“Lexi really enjoyed being there and I have nothing but good things to say about these two. I appreciate them coming through for me and keeping lexi happy in my absence!”
“Outstanding Care! Finding an exceptional pet sitter for your furry family member is not easy so we felt incredibly fortunate to find Jared. He took care of our Frenchie, Halo, for 17 nights, and despite the initial stress of leaving him for so long, Jared immediately put our minds at ease. He has a calm, confident presence so Halo warmed up to him immediately, even though it normally takes him a bit. Jared was incredibly diligent with all of Halo's specific instructions, including feeding him his fresh food diet, putting on his bug collar before walks, and using his cooling neck gator when the weather was a little too warm. Jared even took it upon himself to eliminate any chance of Halo running out the front door by putting up a puppy gate. Jared’s communication was also outstanding – we received daily and detailed updates that included photos. What truly set him apart was how he handled things when Halo unexpectedly got sick. Not only did Jared take Halo to the vet and later drive back to pick up his medication, he also prepared special meals for him and ensured he got all of his medication right on schedule. On top of the incredible care, Halo had a blast playing with Jared’s dog, Maui! It was clear Halo was not only safe and well-cared for, but genuinely happy, which made our trip worry-free. If you are looking for THE BEST pet sitter, look no further than Jared. He is truly amazing!”
“Rui’s home was a haven for our little Sugar dog! She loved playing with the other little dogs Rui was watching and came back being more consistent in her “stay” command which was an awesome help to us. When we left she put her paw on the window sill and watched us leave like a movie scene or something ? she really had a great time.”
“From the moment we met Rachel and Justin we felt so thankful it was them we were leaving our doggo with! They are incredibly genuine and warm and truly care about your pet as their own. They send multiple updates and lots of photos and our dog is always so excited when we pull up to their home. We try and use them every time we leave town if they’re available :-) Thank you!!”
“Lilia was great! She was very responsive and sent plenty of photos and updates throughout the stay. I could tell that my pups really enjoyed their stay and were well taken care of. Thanks again!!”

My home was very neat and clean and my cats were calm and content upon my return. Thank you Aryanna. I look forward to having you cat sit again!”

“Antonio had great communication from the start. He came over to see our place and meet Zoey before our vacation. I felt very comfortable with his help. He even brought in a package on our porch for us that had arrived late. We will definitely use him again as Zoey seemed like a very happy cat when we got home.”
“Nicole was the best cat sitter I could hope for! She cared for my 3 cats like they were her own. She sent me lots of updates with pictures and truly went above and beyond.”

“Taylor was so communicative and sent so many great pics of my Marty! It was so reassuring to know that someone was being attentive to him while I was away. Thank you!”
“I definitely recommend Dale for peace of mind when leaving your furry friends. He took excellent care of my senior fur baby and even got my nervous cat to warm up. He sent great photos and updates the whole time, and went above and beyond tidying their litter and eating areas. I would absolutely have Dale back to care for my guys!”
“Jessica is an amazing pet sitter. She looked over my cat while I was away for a week. She's very descriptive & timely in her visits & reports. She takes the responsibility seriously. Will rebook if she's available.”
“I booked Samantha for drop-in visits for my cat while I was away for a week. She did a phenomenal job keeping me updated during the week and really made me feel secure that my cat was well taken care of. My cat can be high maintenance in her older age, but Samantha went above and beyond with her care. Highly recommend!”
“I will always feel at ease with Samantha taking care of our fur baby. He is very shy and wouldn’t come out for her, but she always sent me pictures of his food. Knowing that he was eating was very reassuring for us. Samantha is so responsive and easy to work with. She will always be my first choice!”
“Lillian was wonderful with my two cats Max and Millie. Very responsive, responsible, and caring. I realized late I needed care, and ’m so grateful she was available and interested at the last minute. Big fan.”
“Christine and Felipe were awesome! Quick to respond, on time, and left the place looking exactly like I left it. My cat was happy and healthy upon my return. 10/10 sit!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including puppies and seniors, and I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medication, and giving each dog the attention they need. I treat every pup like family. I’m home full-time, which means your dog will have my full attention throughout the day. From regular walks and playtime to feeding and cuddle breaks, I’ll be there to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. You can relax knowing they’re never left alone for long and are getting plenty of care and companionship. I live in a pet-free home with a fenced yard, providing a quiet and safe space for your dog to relax and play. Your dog will get my full attention, daily exercise, and lots of love while you're away.
“Denise was so amazing with Finley. Sometimes he takes a while to warm up to people, and within an hour he was sleeping on her lap! We will definitely be using Denise again-- she has a way with animals.”
“Marissa was very attentive to our puppy. She went out if her way to talke extra care of her, gave her medicine and always walked her and sent us picttires. She was very responsible and easy to work with”
“Rachel and Justin are nothing short of phenomenal! Leaving my puppy Queenie in their care was the best decision I made. They treated her like a member of their own family, going above and beyond to ensure she was happy and well-cared for. Their flexibility and warm welcome immediately eased any nerves I had about leaving her with strangers. Queenie not only loved spending time with them but also adored their fur children and their son. I couldn’t be happier with the love and attention they provided. I’ll definitely be choosing Rachel and Justin again in the future for their exceptional care and genuine love for dogs!”
About: I provide a safe, loving, and fun environment for your furry family members. I know how hard it is to leave your pets. That is why I offer personalized care tailored to your pet's exact routine. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime or quiet companionship, I adapt to their unique personality. You will receive daily photo and text updates so you can enjoy your time away with total peace of mind. I work remotely, meaning your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive constant supervision. I read dog body language well. This ensures your pet stays safe, relaxed, and stress-free in my care. I understand the patience required for young pets. I reinforce your house-training, crate-training, and leash-walking routines using positive reinforcement. I am comfortable and precise with oral medications, supplements, and strict feeding schedules.
“Bassam was absolutely wonderful with Lady Guienvere. It’s so refreshing to find a sitter who is just as enchanted with my fur baby as I am. He was attentive, gentle, and clearly cared deeply for her comfort and happiness. I truly appreciated the care he showed my little one, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again.”
About: I have experience watching dogs of all ages and sizes in NY and now Texas. I understand needs of dogs whether that be sensitive to noises, separation anxiety, etc - I’ve seen it all. Especially with my own six pound Chihuahua! Experience in administering medicine and training, I can help you and accommodate for anything you may need. I have tons of love to give and will provide an easy and calming experience for you and your family. I work from home and am able to give your pet 24/7 attention. Walks can be given every hour and the dog park at least once a day, if your dog likes dog parks. I am available every day and very flexible with scheduling. I live alone in a quiet house with a fenced backyard so there’s plenty of space for your furry friend to get comfortable. I also have a very friendly chihuahua that will be with me for any dog boarding. Your dog may sleep on the furniture or in a crate, whatever you prefer. I can administer medicine (no shots) and live within walking distance of a vet that I know personally, so this is the perfect place in case of any emergencies.
About: I have fostered and cared for a variety of temperaments as well as accidents and ailments. My personality under pressure is imperative to calm pets. I am fully remote and working on European time zones. My husband works in office and I just love the company! My furbaby motivates me to go on walks during a break and other energy mixed in just creates a fun happy environment. It should be noted that when we have all had a big day, lounging in the sectional collectively to some good TV before sleep is crucial. Along with pupsicles-duh. I have a fenced-in yard that backs up to a protected piece of land. It is absolutely gorgeous and calm, not to mention for great fetch. A dog trail leads to a nearby park with all of the smells! I can accommodate the preferences and needs of any pet or owner's request.
“Tex came home happy and tired! I can tell he was well taken care of and enjoyed his time at Emma’s. Emma was wonderful to work with and sent multiple pictures throughout the day. Would definitely book again! 😊”
About: For several years, I've consistently volunteered at numerous animal shelters. My experience ranges from maintaining the health of puppies and kittens to nurturing and caring for older animals. On top of this, I am very cleanly so you can be rest assured your loved one will treated with the sophistication all animals deserve. As a financial planner, I have a hybrid work schedule that is highly flexible. Without delay or hesitation, your pet's needs will be at the top of my priorities! I frequently run so rest assured, your dog will have all the exercise he/she needs! On top of that, my apartment complex has a convenient dog walking environment so potty breaks will be often!
“Highly recommend! My dog has dementia which means he's constantly having his brains turn more and more into mash potatoes. Patches was able to provide exceptional care with all his special needs and I never worried about him bc he was in such good hands! 😻 Meow!”
“Maria is awesome! My young doggies didn't want to leave her. They had such a good time and were exhausted from the whole day of play. I'm thankful for her and rover.com for keeping our animals safe and comfortable.”
About: Looking for a calm, loving home instead of a crowded kennel? That's exactly what we provide. We're Rachel and Max, a French American couple who genuinely love dogs. As Rover sitters, we provide a safe, calm, and personalized home for every guest. We intentionally welcome only one or two dogs at a time so every pup receives individual attention, affection, and plenty of supervised play. Our home has a fully fenced backyard, daily walks, lots of cuddle time, and frequent photo updates so you'll always know how your dog is doing. Your dog will be treated like part of our family, never like just another booking We both work from home, with one of us home full time and the other part time, so your pet is rarely alone and always has company. Walks, meals, playtime, and breaks fit easily into our daily routine, and we’re used to giving dogs plenty of attention and care throughout the day. We provide a calm, stress-free, and relaxed environment where pets feel safe and at home. We follow their usual routines for meals, walks, playtime, and rest, and adapt as much as possible to each dog’s energy level and personality. Whether a pet needs active time outside or just quiet companionship, we keep things easy, consistent, and comfortable, with lots of attention and care throughout the day.
“She takes care of my deaf and partially blind puppy--what more can I say?! He gets lots of walks with her and thrives on her one-on-one attention. I know it's a good day when he comes home tired, which is very hard to accomplish with him. :) I was worried about him being in an apartment, but they go outside so often, it really isn't an issue for him. Vivien is attentive, responsive, and extremely patient with my high energy (and sometimes high needs) puppy. Thanks Vivien!”
“Absolutely recommend Daniel, My pet absolutely loves spending time with him and gets so excited every time he sees him. He is also incredibly knowledgeable about dog behavior and care, which gives me total peace of mind whenever I’m away. He is professional and very reliable. He also keeps me posted by sharing photos and videos!”
“Savannah and Gabriel are great with my puppy Peaches!! They are attentive to her needs and provide me with photos/updates during the day. She also comes home tired after playing with their doggie!! They’re the best!!”
About: I specialize in providing calm, attentive, and personalized care that helps pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities—including puppies who need consistency and seniors who need patience and extra support. I’m confident with leash manners, basic training reinforcement, medication administration, and recognizing stress or anxiety signals early. What truly sets me apart is my communication—pet parents receive frequent updates and photos, so you’re never left wondering how your furry family member is doing. Many pets warm up to me quickly, even those who are shy or anxious. I'm currently WFH, which allows me to prioritize pet care. I’m available for boarding and daycare, giving me ample time for walks, play sessions, enrichment activities, and relaxed companionship. Your little one will also have my little to play with throughout the day. Because pet care fits seamlessly into my routine, your puppy will receive plenty of affection throughout the day and evening. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment with close supervision and plenty of cozy spaces to relax. I follow all care instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walk routines, and any medical or behavioral needs. In your home, I’m respectful, reliable, and detail-oriented, ensuring your pet’s routine stays consistent. If I'm housesitting, my dog, Bugsy, will also be with me. I always provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is for you to return to a happy, relaxed pet—and book with me again.
“By far the most amazing experience I’ve had with a dog sitter! Wrigley was so happy and comfortable there he didn’t to leave! Came home EXHAUSTED everyday :) Will absolutely be using her again!”
About: I have cared for dogs all of my life. As a child, we bred Labrador puppies. We were taught to raise them from the beginning with love, care, and discipline. While I've been around dogs and cats all of my life, I also have plenty of experience with other pets like snakes, Guinea pigs, chameleons, pet rats, turtles, lizards, birds and always love meeting a new animal to learn more about their care routine. Boarding/Day Care: We have a highly energetic, one year old puppy. We usually only take males or spayed females as our puppy is not yet neutered. If your dog is easily triggered, it may not be a fit. Yote is friendly, but high energy, so fits well with an energy match. I’m a software engineer, but my schedule is fairly flexible and I work from home. If the request fits into my schedule, I’d love to help care for your pet. I will work with you to make sure that your pet gets plenty of love while you are away, whether it be that you have to work late or are going on vacation.

“Thank you so much Aryanna for the meet and greet, the walk, the wonderful details and for taking the best care of our Sammie! So happy to have someone so competent watch her. We can’t wait to book you again and we really appreciate you! MANY THANKS!”
“I was incredibly nervous about leaving my two dogs in the care of someone else, as one of them has lots of anxiety issues and can be reactive with people and other dogs. But Dale did incredible and had no issues. He was super patient with my reactive dog and was super mindful about all my concerns. I was so so anxious and left a whole essay of information/instructions he needed to know and he made sure to keep all of that in mind. I will definitely keep him in mind for future sitter needs.”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs, including German Shepherds, Boxers, and Mastiffs, so caring for animals has always been a part of my life. My family always had two or three dogs, which gave me years of hands-on experience with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I’ve also provided dog walking, pet sitting, and overnight care for friends, and through TrustedHousesitters. I’ve completed extended pet sits lasting up to a month. I treat every pet like family and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part time and remotely, this means that my schedule is pretty flexible. I have a few work meetings and a workout routine that I will stick to. This make it super easy to have time to care for your pets. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of walks, playtime, and companionship, and receive any medications or special care they need. I love spending quality time with pets, whether that’s playing, cuddling, practicing basic training, or simply keeping them company. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 8 years and understand that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. As a dog owner myself, I currently have a 7-year-old Pit Bull mix and a 10-year-old Shepherd/Lab mix, so I have firsthand experience caring for dogs with different energy levels, temperaments, and care requirements. In addition to walking dogs for years, I've also cared for many dogs that weren't my own, giving me experience earning the trust of pets in new environments and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I'm incredibly detail-oriented because I know the little things matter—whether it's following feeding instructions exactly, giving medications, sticking to a familiar routine, or recognizing when a dog needs extra patience, playtime, or reassurance. My goal is always to provide the same level of care and attention that I'd want for my own dogs. Above all, I want every pet in my care to feel loved, happy, and well cared for. I'll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I'd be happy to help with your pet care needs! I work full-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to accommodate a variety of schedules and provide dependable care throughout the day. Whether you need a recurring dog walker, last-minute drop-in visit, or a unique schedule, I'll do my best to make it work. I'm available for dog walks and drop-in visits daily between 6:00 AM and 9:00 PM. I understand that every family has a different routine, so I'm happy to work with you to find times that best fit your schedule and your dog's needs. My goal is to provide reliable, stress-free care while making sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. For walks, I'm happy to bring one or both of my friendly, well-socialized dogs along if your pup enjoys canine companionship—but only if that's something you'd like. If your dog prefers one-on-one attention, I'm just as happy to keep our walks focused on them. Whether it's neighborhood sidewalks, local trails, or your dog's favorite walking route, I'll make sure they get exercise in an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and have the most fun. For drop-in visits, I treat every client's home with the same care and respect that I would my own. I'm extremely detail-oriented and know how important it is to follow your instructions exactly as requested. From feeding schedules and medications to potty breaks, playtime, or any special routines, you can trust that I'll pay close attention to every detail without cutting corners. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your home is respected and your dog is receiving the loving, reliable care they deserve.
“Emma did a great job of taking care of our sweet girl. She was very communicative and kindly brought our packages inside when we were away. Thank you so much-highly recommend!”
“Danielle is absolutely amazing with Mishka! She is great about listening to Mishka’s cues when she wants to keep walking or needs a chill day to just play inside. It’s very apparent how much she cares about the dogs she walks. Mishka is so excited to see her each day and it shows in all the pics that Danielle sends! I’m so happy to have found someone I trust Mish with in Austin.”
“Ollie absolutely loves his walks with Madison; he gets so excited when she arrives. Madison is reliable, communicative, and clearly a true dog person. Ollie has some leash reactivity challenges, and I really appreciate the care and attention she takes to keep him engaged, set him up for success, and avoid situations that might trigger a reaction. It’s obvious that she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with and tailors her approach to their individual needs. Don’t overthink it; book a walk with Madison! 🐾”
About: With 10+ years of caring for my own pets plus family and friends’ dogs, I bring patience, reliability, and genuine love for every pup. I’m committed to giving dogs the caring attention they deserve when their owners can’t be there. My schedule is very open right now, which gives me a lot of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and playtime. I’m able to adjust to your pet’s routine and make sure they get consistent care whenever needed. In my clients’ homes, I always follow their routines, preferences, and house rules. My goal is to keep each pet comfortable and cared for while I’m a guest in their space.
“Lara has been amazing! She is always on time to take our dogs on walks, and has been very responsive and flexible with any sudden schedule changes. Our dog gets super excited to see her, and I know she’s well taken care of with Lara.”
About: I have had dogs and cats all my life (also fish, hamsters, mice, and a hedgehog). From puppies and kittens to elderly chihuahuas and grouchy senior cats, I have handled it all. I routinely care for pets for my friends and family and am happy to care for your babies too. I'm recently retired so I have a lot of time on my hands! I'm happy to administer medication or cater to your pet in whatever ways they need. I recently retired from my full-time job and will be mostly at home doing a little contract work here and there. I already care for my own five pets (or six if you count the fish) and can easily add yours to the mix. I will listen to what your pet needs and accommodate whatever it is they need/want. I am used to dealing with a diverse group of pets and providing each of them with what they need.
About: I’m new to Rover but not new to pet care! My family has always had cats and dogs so I’m always happy and comfortable around animals. I’m very patient, calm and attentive. My cat was very sick when I first got him but his symptoms were very subtle, the vet said had I not been so adamant about getting him checked multiple times, he probably would not have made it. I love all animals and would bring that level of attention to any fur baby that I sit for. I know that each animal requires specific care and is unique in personality and I am happy to work within whatever sitting style would make your pet comfortable and happy. I am trusted sitter for friends and family and would treat your pet with the care and love that I would treat my own. I just graduated with my masters at UT Austin so I currently have a very open schedule! I drive and would be happy to come by whenever you need. I think that it’s really important for your pet to have the care that you think is best. Whatever your routine or situation I’m happy to accommodate to keep your pet on schedule. For example, I am very particular about how I take care of my own cat in my home. He has an automatic feeder and a water fountain so that he is always fed on time and has enough water throughout the day. Each night I play fetch with him for at least 15 minutes to get his energy out before bed. At night time he sleeps next to me the whole time. This is what works for us but everyone’s situation looks different. If you give me a step by step of how your pet likes to be cared for I can assure you I will do exactly that :)
About: I've been caring for pets since I was eight years old and my family adopted its first dog. Beyond the typical duties of walking, feeding, playing, and training I've performed for my personal pets, I also began walking dogs at shelters when I was in middle school, and continued to throughout college. Since graduating college a year ago, I've been hired to walk and take care of multiple dogs in my neighborhood, which I've done so joyfully. I am also a member of Trusted Housesitters, and have travelled around the country to visit new places while caring for pets. I have a variety of experience and am the biggest dog lover you'll probably ever meet! I currently work virtually, so am incredibly flexible and able to accommodate a variety of situations during my workday. This means I can work on both workdays and weekends. Furthermore, I am generally very flexible and have lots of free time, so chances are I'll be able to make something work! I will care for my client's pet in their home with care and love. I try to walk dogs I care for at least 3 times a day for at least 15-20 minutes - more if the dog is very active. I also make sure to fill the water bowl and feed the pups on time. I will also go outside to the backyard (if present) and play with the dog there. Because I work from home, I am extremely flexible and able to give dogs more attention than they might get at a kennel or other situation. Overall, I am extremely conscientious, and what's more, I am a genuine dog lover and am attuned to their needs. I will care for your dog with the utmost attention and love.
About: I have cared for my own dog for 5 years and am patient, reliable, and attentive. I love animals and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout both weekdays and weekends. I provide a safe, clean, calm, and loving environment where pets are always supervised, treated with patience and kindness, and given proper care, affection, feeding, and attention daily.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10, growing up in a home full of pets. That early experience gave me a natural comfort with animals and a genuine love for building trust with them. I’m reliable, attentive, and enjoy making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for—whether that’s walks, playtime, or just good company. I would love to take good care of your fur baby! 💛🐶🐈🐾✨ I’m currently a self employed tattoo artist and designer. I am very flexible and have plenty of availability to take care of your fur babies. I will mostly be available week days 9am-5pm I am not currently accepting jobs to take care of your pets in my home as I don’t have a suitable space with my two roommates and two kitties but would be happy to take care of your pet in your own home.
“Christine was a life saver during our recent visit to Austin. The hotel we were staying at didn’t have a pet area and the closest grassy area was several blocks away. Our Pomeranian Gigi loved her outings with Christine, she is highly recommended.”

“Aine was amazing with Bono. Bono developed a severe allergy to something during his stay and Aine took Bono to our vet and even bathed him in the medication shampoo so he would feel much better. Though we were out of town, we felt comforted that Bono was in such good care. Thank you so much!”
“Gail was amazing with our dog. The photo updates were precious and my dog really bonded with Gail. She would be so happy to return the next time we are out of town! Thank you Gail!”
“Lexi really enjoyed being there and I have nothing but good things to say about these two. I appreciate them coming through for me and keeping lexi happy in my absence!”
“Outstanding Care! Finding an exceptional pet sitter for your furry family member is not easy so we felt incredibly fortunate to find Jared. He took care of our Frenchie, Halo, for 17 nights, and despite the initial stress of leaving him for so long, Jared immediately put our minds at ease. He has a calm, confident presence so Halo warmed up to him immediately, even though it normally takes him a bit. Jared was incredibly diligent with all of Halo's specific instructions, including feeding him his fresh food diet, putting on his bug collar before walks, and using his cooling neck gator when the weather was a little too warm. Jared even took it upon himself to eliminate any chance of Halo running out the front door by putting up a puppy gate. Jared’s communication was also outstanding – we received daily and detailed updates that included photos. What truly set him apart was how he handled things when Halo unexpectedly got sick. Not only did Jared take Halo to the vet and later drive back to pick up his medication, he also prepared special meals for him and ensured he got all of his medication right on schedule. On top of the incredible care, Halo had a blast playing with Jared’s dog, Maui! It was clear Halo was not only safe and well-cared for, but genuinely happy, which made our trip worry-free. If you are looking for THE BEST pet sitter, look no further than Jared. He is truly amazing!”
“Maura and Shawn were AWESOME to my pup, Boone. I received a picture of my buddy relaxing on the very first night of his stay and every subsequent day. It was so nice to see that he was enjoying his time. Thank you, Maura and Shawn for taking Boone on so many walks ( that is always the highlight of his day). We hope to see you again!”
“Elijah is totally on top of it- starting with a meet and greet, so I felt completely comfortable leaving Harry with him. Harry loves Zee Zee and was so happy to see her when I dropped him off. I know he was well taken care of, and he was a very happy boy when we picked him up! We’ll definitely check with Elijah anytime we need someone for Harry.”
“Morgan was amazing with our sweet dog Harley. Harley is typically anxious and timid with new friends, but Morgan made her feel right at home and she was her happy, goofy and playful self immediately. It made our travels so much easier knowing that she was comfortable and enjoying herself while we were away. Morgan was great about sending lots of photos and updates throughout our trip so our family could see the puppy adventures she was getting into herself. Will absolutely book with Morgan over and over again. Thank you, Morgan!”
“Amy is a great sitter. We’ve used her a couple of times for longish trips of about a week each time. She sends cute pictures and Cooper always has a blast with the other dogs.”
“Bassam, John & Adam took such great care of our pups! They sent picture updates throughout our trip which made it easier to relax knowing they were in good hands. We came home to two very happy, very tired dogs, which is always the best sign!! Thank you”
About: My husband and I absolutely love caring for dogs together, and we bring a warm energy to every pup we watch. Since we both work remotely, your dog is never left lonely for long stretches, there’s almost always someone around for snuggles, playtime, potty breaks, and attention throughout the day. We’re a very hands on, tag-team duo, which means your pup gets extra love, extra supervision, and lots of consistency. We genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality, what makes them excited, what calms them down, and how to make them feel completely at home with us. Whether your dog is high energy and loves adventure or more of a couch cuddler, we adjust to exactly what they need to feel happy and secure. And of course, you’ll get plenty of sweet updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. We treat every dog like part of our little household while they’re with us. Lots of love, attention, and tail wags included 🐾 Because we’re both home, we’re able to take turns or tag-team care depending on our work meetings, which means the dogs always get attention, companionship, and supervision. We love incorporating short walks and play breaks throughout the day so the pups stay happy, stimulated, and comfortable. In the mornings, we usually start the day with potty breaks and walks, followed by breakfast and some playtime or cuddles. During the workday, we naturally build in regular check-ins, outdoor breaks, and moments of attention. Evenings are more relaxed with longer walks, winding down, and lots of quality time. Our home is set up to be a calm, pet-friendly space where dogs can quickly feel settled and at ease. We focus on creating a predictable, reassuring routine so they know when it’s time for walks, meals, play, and rest.
“Maggie took excellent care of my Cooper, sending daily photos and video. Cooper got lots of play time with her dog, Moose, and squirrel-chasing time in the fenced backyard. Everything was perfect, and Maggie was super friendly and easy to work with. 100% recommended!”
“Beans had the best time with Ryan. Ryan was extremely communicative and had no issues with Beans’s schedule. She sent multiple messages throughout the day, lots of pics and I definitely will be rebooking.”
“Brian was an incredible sitter to Winnie when I was out of the country for two weeks. He provided consistent updates and I could tell that Winnie was having a great time. It’s hard to find sitters you can trust but Brian is one of those sitters. I Would 100% recommend Brian to anyone and I look forward time having Winnie stay with him again.”
“I am so so so beyond pleased with the care Amanda and Jared provided for my dog Kaio! It was super last minute and they took him the day off for about a week. My dog is very high energy and can be a lot to handle, but they knew just what to do and are clearly really well versed with all sorts of pups. It’s hard to find people that can handle my dog but as soon as I met Jared I knew kaio would be just fine. I was also afraid of leaving him with so many other doggies, unsure if he would get along with all of them as he can be a bit alpha, but he ended up doing great and had an absolute blast! Amanda and Jared were also great about sending tons of photos and videos. I was in tears dropping him off and in the end felt bad picking him up and taking him away from all his new friends! Can’t recommend these 2 enough 🙏🏼”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Sherry taking care of our two dogs over the Christmas holiday. From the very start she was incredibly communicative and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. She sent lots of photos and updates which we really appreciated, especially during the holidays when it can be hard to be away from your pets. She took them on regular walks, trips to the dog park, and gave them so much attention and love. It truly felt like she cared for them as if they were her own dogs. We came home to two very happy, relaxed pups which says everything. We would not hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing, reliable sitter.”
“Rachel was so comfortable and nurturing with my pup. She knows a lot about dogs and knew what to do with my little guy. He was well cared for there and got lots of snuggles. I felt comfortable leaving him there in her hands. She was great to work with.”
“Marissa and her husband were the best! They took such good care of my pup, were patient with her, sent tons of photos and showed so much love. They have all the toys, leashes and setup just for the pups!”
