“Our Winston loved his time with Kent and his family. He was treated like one of the family. Several updated to keep us from worrying about our boy also. Highly recommend!!”

“John and Becky took wonderful care of our two Scotties while we were recently on vacation. They are a kind and caring couple that truly loved our dogs. We received updates and pictures from John and Becky throughout our trip. When we picked the dogs up to go home, Piper didn’t want to leave! We will definitely book with them again on our next trip. Thank you for opening your home to our babies. 😊 Dina and Brian”

“Nicole and family were great. She made pickup and drop off quick and easy. When my flight was cancelled and I had to extend 1 more day, Nicole was very flexible. I'm glad I had one less thing to worry about. Highly recommend.”

“Andrew took such great care of my dog. He has a wonderful, spacious yard and friendly dogs, and I believe my dog really enjoyed the stay. I will definitely ask Andrew to host my dog again.”

“Kelli is one of the nicest people I've ever left my littles with! She communicated regularly with me, paid attention to their moods/needs, and I believe she did everything in her power to make them as comfortable as possible. I really appreciated the extra care and hope to book again ❤️”


“Kristine was simply amazing! She took such good care of my little girl. She had the best time over there! I would give her more stars if I could! Awesome job. Thank you!”


“This was my first time using Rover — I'd never left my dog with anyone outside family before, so I was nervous going in. That worry didn't last long. I got thorough updates throughout my trip, which meant a lot for peace of mind. My dog came back happy and clearly well cared for. Highly recommend, especially if you're a first-timer like I was!”

About: I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and loving home where pets feel comfortable and owners have complete peace of mind while they’re away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to learn their preferences, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any medications or special instructions. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy who needs patience and consistency, an adult who loves playtime and walks, or a senior who needs a slower pace and extra care, I’ll make sure they receive personalized attention. My home offers a comfortable, family-style environment rather than a kennel experience, with plenty of affection, supervised play, and opportunities to relax. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. My focus is simple: making sure your pet feels safe, happy, loved, and excited to come back for their next stay. Pet care is naturally part of my daily routine, and I schedule my days to ensure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I enjoy spending time at home, so dogs are rarely left alone for extended periods. Throughout the day, I provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of affection. I also believe consistency is important, so I do my best to follow each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys active play or prefers quiet cuddle time, I’ll make sure they receive the individualized care they deserve. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every stay as an opportunity to give them a safe, happy, and loving home away from home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any medications or special instructions so I can provide care that’s as consistent as possible with what they’re used to. I supervise pets during playtime, monitor their behavior to help ensure they’re comfortable, and give them plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Fresh water is always available, and I keep pet areas clean and secure. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll respect both your home and your pet’s routine by following your instructions carefully, maintaining their schedule, and providing updates with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Kaela and her family were amazing with lexie and max. They treated them like there own. Kaela was very flexible with pick up and drop off and she kept in contact with me during our trip. She sent many pictues on how they were doing. I would highly recommend using her to take care of your fur babies.”

“Alexandra did a wonderful job caring for our pup Leo. She would send us updates/photos through out our trip and I appreciated her love/care for our dog. I’d definitely recommend and would rebook with her in the future!”
“Chelsea R. Did a terrific job taking care of my dog. Keep me updated while watching her. Most importantly kept my dog happy 😊 and safe. Would absolutely request Chelsea again.”

“So grateful for for Kittiyaporn and her husband for making Onyx and Polly’s stay memorable and loving! They provided them with love care and support! Cooper was so sweet and compatible with the Onyx and Polly. Forever grateful for their new second home!”

“This was my first time boarding outside of a pet resort and my dogs appeared to be well cared for. My oldest dog had started having seizures when boarded due to anxiety, and he had no issues with Silvana. Thank you!”

“Johanny was so incredibly kind and flexible when I needed someone to take care of my pup VERY LAST MINUTE while I was already out of town. I had a family emergency and my friend couldn’t take care of him anymore so I rushed to find someone late at night and Johanny was quite literally the only one willing to take him in at such last minute. We are very appreciative and THANK HER a million times over. All was well upon our return.”


“Sherry delivers 5-Star service. She is very personable, responsive, and engages our dog, Anubis. Our family can rest well knowing Anubis is in good hands. What I really love is she is a “dog whisperer” ! 😅 Really! She is in tune with Anubis’ body language and gestures and knows how to work with him. She allows Anubis to engage with other dogs in her care ensuring they all respect each other's boundaries. He plays outside and she takes him for walks. Lastly, she keeps us informed and sends pictures throughout the day. Sherry is a “hands down” sure thing!”

“Great experience with these two. My maltipoo is very picky when it comes to strangers, but I had a meet and greet with Jonathon first and then Leslie when we dropped off Thor. He quickly melted away into their arms. Definitely booking with them again!”

About: During my visit, I will feed your cat and ensure they have water, give treats if allowed, provide playtime, and clean litter boxes. I follow instructions clearly and I aim to create a calming, positive experience for your cat.

“Kira did an excellent job caring for my kitties! The fact that she was able to send me pics of them was amazing, they are usually very camera (and people) shy! I’ll definitely book with her again 😻”


“Logan is a wonderful pet sitter! Logan took excellent care of our two cats and home and followed instructions exactly, as well as staying late one night to help get our cat in. Highly recommend!”

About: I love animals, I have experience caring for animals since I was a child. In my family we have always been animal lovers. My family and friends have given me the confidence to care for their pets. Me encantan los animales, tengo experiencia cuidando animales desde niña. En mi familia siempre hemos sido animal lover. Mi familia y amistades me han dado la confianza para cuidar a sus mascotas. Currently I am not working, I only study, I am a housewife and I have 3 girls and my pets, I have the time to take care of your pet. Actualmente no estoy trabajando, solo estudio, soy ama de casa y tengo 3 niñas y mis mascotas , tengo el tiempo para cuidar a tu mascota. I have a fenced garden, and the animals can be inside the house. I cannot take care of aggressive dogs or dogs that do not get along with other dogs since I have my daughters and my pets in the house. Tengo el jardin vallado, y los animales pueden estar dentro de la casa. No puedo cuidar a perros agresivos o que no se lleven con otros perros ya que tengo mis hijas y mis mascotas en la casa.
“Brooklyn really went above and beyond and braved the awful icy roads to make sure my kitties were fed and watered in the awful cold weather we had. Excellent caretaker all the way around 🤩”


About: Cats have been a part of my life from my earliest days, living on a farm. I've cared for many varieties and temperments, from Maine Coon to Calico, from timid and shy to mean and aggressive. They are a Critter that requires understanding and their own space. I'm cool with that.
“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! She was reliable, took our dog out exactly when requested, and kept us updated throughout the visit. We especially appreciated the photos she sent, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dog and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

“This is Tania’s third time watching our dogs. She has dog sat for my Great Danes twice before, which is amazing in itself, but this time I added my two small dogs and she did great. Tania is super kind and follows direction so well. I will absolutely continue using Tania as my dog sitter! She’s the best.”


“Katie was absolutely amazing with my shy cat! I never had to worry once while I was gone. Katie kept me beyond informed with every visit. Would highly recommend. Only want to book with her!”

About: I have a gentle and loving spirit. I accept all animals into my world. The more the better! I have a lot of love to give. I work part time so I have plenty of extra time to spend with all the pets. I love being outside and going for walks and spending time with animals as much as I can. Whenever I'm with any pets, they have my full attention and care. I'm happy to sit with pets as long as needed and give them the love and care.

About: I have 2 years of professional pet-sitting experience caring for both dogs and cats, and my experience with cats goes back much further. I grew up around stray cats that my family and I cared for, so I’ve always had a special place in my heart for them. I understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level, whether they’re affectionate and playful or shy and prefer their space. I’m patient, gentle, and respectful of their boundaries while making sure they’re fed, comfortable, cared for, and given plenty of attention and love while their family is away. I’ll treat your kitty like they’re one of my own.
“I contacted Shaina out of the blue and very last minute, and even had to adjust my schedule after initial contact – she was very accommodating, and responded quickly and with enthusiasm to texts. I have two cats that she dropped in to check on, and sent pictures every day of the "girls". She texted questions as needed during the visits (which I told her to please do) and arrived like clockwork when she said she would. Honestly, could not have asked for a better experience, and will definitely book her again!”

About: I have been pet sitting for family friends since I was 10 years old. I love getting to spend time with dogs and I will make sure that they get the same care and attention as if they were my own. I’m currently a student and looking for an extra way to earn cash for the summer so my schedule is open! I will be out of town June 9-30. I am currently not accepting pets in my apartment because there is a no pet policy. I’m looking into changing this, but for the meantime I can’t have pets in my apartment.

About: I grew up with one dog in my house and have house/pet sit for family and friends. When I was getting my degree I worked at PetSmart in the Doggie Day Care. I’m a teacher and home more in the summer! I’m a teacher and usually leave my house by 7:30 am and return no later than 4:45 pm. Growing up my family’s dog’s routine was to be walked and fed twice a day. When it was hot outside the routine changed with him having a bathroom break and then walked later that evening. I have experience in providing medication. I have a fenced in yard for your dog(s) to run around, sidewalks in my neighborhood to walk, and room to crate your dog(s) if thats what they need to feel comfortable. I currently don’t have a dog so they would have all the pets and snuggles!

“Sruthi was great! Blaze was a little scared at first as it was a new place but quickly acclimated. He was playing and having a good time. Sruthi sent regular updates, videos and photos. Will definitely use again!! Thank you Sruthi!!”

About: I would love the opportunity to care for your pet! I have a very welcoming and fun-loving personality that has never met an animal personality that didn't mesh.

Caring for animals is my passion and I thank you for the time with your pet. I have a flexible work schedule, so my flexibility is a bonus when it comes to pet care! I offer dog walks, dog drop-in house visits, over night house sitting, and doggy day care.

I will follow any rules or guidelines set by the owner to ensure the best care is given to your furry loved one. I submit photos throughout my care time to keep you up to date with the great time your pet is having with me!

“Kristine is great with Zoey! And Zoey loves going over there, which is a good sign. We are moving next month, so I hope we find another 5-star dog loving family like Kristine’s!”

About: I typically help neighbors & family with their pets when they’ve gone out of town many times. Walking, feeding, medicine, baths, etc. My parents recently got puppies that I helped raise from a month old! 💙 I work from home as a video marketer & work part time door dashing, which allows my schedule to be insanely flexible to help out with play time, walks, & drop by visits. 😎 I often help my elderly people bring their groceries all the way to the kitchen. I make sure to greet the animals, let them build confidence & trust, before entering the homes. My intention is to leave a safe impact on the house.

I have also bottle fed baby animals and had to assist one of my dogs when she had a litter of 11 puppies, which I cared for on my own. My only job right now is caring for my two dogs and my cat!

About: I have been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds ranging from Labradors to German Shorthairs and Mastiffs to Miniature American Shepherds.

I am confident in assisting in any potty training of puppies as well. Additionally, having three dogs of my own I know how difficult it can be to leave your dogs in someone else's care. I am very engaged with you during anytime I'm with your dog so you know how they're doing. I work remote and my schedule is very flexible. For the most part I have the ability to set my own schedule.

I make sure that my pets and the pets that are entrusted into my care are comfortable and content. In order to achieve this I use a variety of tools and tricks such as calm exercise, interactive play, and enrichment activities.

About: I have 3 years of experience working in an animal shelter, where I was lucky enough to care for animals of all kinds. I am familiar with the necessary care needed for pets of all ages, from baby to senior. I am practiced in giving medication and basic grooming/ maintenance, as well as having worked with trainers in the past though I am not credentialed. Due to my history, I am also experienced working with animals with behavioural issues and am not intimidated by the size of a pet. I am currently between jobs and, therefore, am able to move around my schedule at will. I have a reliable form of transportation that allows me to be wherever you need me to be when you need me to be there. My apartment is not large enough, nor would the complex allow me to, house animals not already on my lease, but I am physically capable of taking dogs out multiple times per day on walks (duration depends on the heat). I play with my own animals multiple times a day for at least 20 minutes each, so rest assured your cats will also get the exercise they deserve. I will go above and beyond for your pets simply because I believe they deserve it.

I’m attentive, dependable, and will carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special requests. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes—including large breeds, as I own a Rottweiler myself—so I’m confident handling energetic or strong dogs. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I have been caring for dogs for several years and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet.

I am responsible, reliable, and committed to following your pet’s routine, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and medication instructions if needed. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide attentive care for your pets. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week. I always make time to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs. I provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.
About: I have been dog sitting for a few years now. I have helped take care of lots of family and friends dogs growing up. From helping bathe dogs with my grandma, to walking neighbors dogs, and even sitting on weekends and weeknights from a young age I have handled dogs of all ages and sizes and cats as well! I do work part time at a coffee shop so my hours are usually very flexible and I can stop in at short notice. I have a large dog park right next to my home with plenty of space for dogs of all sizes to run around and play. Or if your pet is a couch potato they’re more than welcome to lay around in the house too. With plenty of toys and space to run around or lounge around your dog will be well taken care of. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions concerns, or special needs for your pets. I currently work part time at a coffee shop so I have very flexible time and can drop in at almost any point of the day to check in on your fur babies. I like to spend lots of time with animals in my care to ensure they have the love, attention, and play time they need and desire. I provide the same love and attention to all my clients fur babies as well.

“Nicole and family were great. She made pickup and drop off quick and easy. When my flight was cancelled and I had to extend 1 more day, Nicole was very flexible. I'm glad I had one less thing to worry about. Highly recommend.”

“Andrew took such great care of my dog. He has a wonderful, spacious yard and friendly dogs, and I believe my dog really enjoyed the stay. I will definitely ask Andrew to host my dog again.”

“Kelli is one of the nicest people I've ever left my littles with! She communicated regularly with me, paid attention to their moods/needs, and I believe she did everything in her power to make them as comfortable as possible. I really appreciated the extra care and hope to book again ❤️”


“This was my first time using Rover — I'd never left my dog with anyone outside family before, so I was nervous going in. That worry didn't last long. I got thorough updates throughout my trip, which meant a lot for peace of mind. My dog came back happy and clearly well cared for. Highly recommend, especially if you're a first-timer like I was!”

“Chelsea R. Did a terrific job taking care of my dog. Keep me updated while watching her. Most importantly kept my dog happy 😊 and safe. Would absolutely request Chelsea again.”

“So grateful for for Kittiyaporn and her husband for making Onyx and Polly’s stay memorable and loving! They provided them with love care and support! Cooper was so sweet and compatible with the Onyx and Polly. Forever grateful for their new second home!”

“Johanny was so incredibly kind and flexible when I needed someone to take care of my pup VERY LAST MINUTE while I was already out of town. I had a family emergency and my friend couldn’t take care of him anymore so I rushed to find someone late at night and Johanny was quite literally the only one willing to take him in at such last minute. We are very appreciative and THANK HER a million times over. All was well upon our return.”


“Sherry delivers 5-Star service. She is very personable, responsive, and engages our dog, Anubis. Our family can rest well knowing Anubis is in good hands. What I really love is she is a “dog whisperer” ! 😅 Really! She is in tune with Anubis’ body language and gestures and knows how to work with him. She allows Anubis to engage with other dogs in her care ensuring they all respect each other's boundaries. He plays outside and she takes him for walks. Lastly, she keeps us informed and sends pictures throughout the day. Sherry is a “hands down” sure thing!”

“Great experience with these two. My maltipoo is very picky when it comes to strangers, but I had a meet and greet with Jonathon first and then Leslie when we dropped off Thor. He quickly melted away into their arms. Definitely booking with them again!”

“God Bless this wonderful at the last minute host who was able to watch our Gouda. He showed us videos of Gouda at play. While getting exercise in his enormous backyard, it looks like a dog’s Dream.) I would highly recommend Don.”

“My Oliver loved his stay with Whitney and we would most definitely use her services again. She sent me pictures and kept me updated on how he was doing throughout his stay. She even taught him how to use the doggy door. =)”
“My dog and cat loved Jaclyn, and I was so happy to not have to split them up and keep them apart, like I would have at a traditional boarding facility. My dog is hit or miss with other dogs, so I felt better that Jaclyn only takes one client at a time, and I know my dog liked getting all of her undivided attention! Lots of photo updates, so I could feel assured to see my pets settling in and getting comfortable. We will definitely be using Jaclyn again!”

“Nataly was great with communication and professional and personable. This was our first time using a sitter and she made the process great and provided updates with pictures. We will definitely be returning!”


“This is our second time boarding Ramen with Sruthi, and she’s been amazing! Ramen absolutely loves her, and she’s always quick to respond and incredibly friendly. We’re so glad we found her and will definitely continue boarding with her in the future!”
