“We couldn't be happier with the care Frankie received with Eileen. She kept us informed with lots of updates and pictures the whole time and was very accommodating when our flight home was canceled. Highly recommend”
“Amanda was great with Sadie on our vacation! It was such a relief knowing she was safe and with a caring family! Amanda communicateed almost daily with me and sent photo updates while we were gone. Sadie got a surprise bath the day before we picked her up! We look forward to using her care in the future! Thank you for everything Amanda!”
“We are repeat customers with Leslie and have been so happy with our experience every time. She takes our dog to the dog park most mornings and she sends pictures and updates.”
“My senior girl loved Janiel's place. Beautiful yard, ball throwing, and Janiel made sure to keep me updated with pics. So glad I found such a great place for Scout. She tells me she hopes to visit again.”
“Georgia was SO easy to communicate with! She sent photos and videos, was flexible with timing, and quick to respond. She has a great yard and play space and is so clearly a dog-lover and caretaker. Tillie had an amazing time with her and we will definitely be going back!”
“Milo had a great time and was taken care of exactly as his medical needs required. We appreciate the flexibility with his pickup and will certainly return if we need boarding again.”
“Our dogs always have a great time and Cheryl sends us cute pictures and videos throughout the day. We had to extend our booking by a few hours due to car trouble and thankfully Cheryl was able to keep our pups later and was accommodating!”
“Wally had a great stay at Mae’s house. They took excellent care of him. He got to go on walks everyday and had a dog bed in their living room waiting for him. Being with people is his favorite thing. We got updates and photos. Knowing he was so happy made our weekend getaway to see grandkids stress free. We will definitely request a future stay.”
“Oscar spent a few days with Heather and was clearly well looked after, relaxed and happy. The communication was great and it's always nice to receive pictures and updates—I can only recommend Heather and would happily book with her again. Cheers!”
“We always have a great experience. We can always trust Hannah with watching Leeloo. She always sends us photos and keeps us updated. We can’t thank her enough! We’ll always try to rebook with her when we can.”
“We dropped off Ziggy for the weekend after a visit to the vet where we left with four medications, a cone and a bloody paw. Philip didn't flinch. (He was two minutes from where I was visiting my mom, so we could have been there if anything had come up.) We didn't get a lot of updates, but we came back to a dog who seemed happy, and better yet, hadn't been chewing on his paw. Highly recommend.”
“Carley was friendly and sent me pictures of my dog every day which I greatly appreciated. When I picked up my dog she was happy, healthy and exhausted. I definitely recommend Carley”
“Excellent experience working with Kate! She took Juniper in for almost two weeks and I felt very comfortable with her. Flynn is adorable and they got along great”
“Tiana did great with our pups! They stayed for three nights and had a blast. Tiana provided lots of pictures, videos, and updates about how the dogs were doing. We felt comfortable with her watching them and would recommend boarding with her!”
“We left our 3 year old dog with Emily. It was our first time leaving him. Our dog Beau had no problems going straight into her care from the start. She sent us pictures and videos. We knew he was happy and well cared for. Will be booking with her in the future!”
“Fantastic service with Kayla. I've already booked ahead for some future trips. Teddy and Mochi got along like two peas in a pod, and Kayla sent plenty of updates for a helicopter dog mom like myself. I highly recommend her services.”
“Chantel is amazing!! She was a pleasure to work with from booking Scout’s stay until I picked him up. My schedule changed a couple of times and Chantel graciously adapted to the changes. She took great care of Scout, sending pictures every day he was with her and he was obviously very comfortable and happy. Chantel will always be my choice of sitters in the future. Thank you so much, Chantel!”
“Alton & Valerie’s family take tender care of Mimi my tiny chiweenie. I love seeing the kids shower her with attention in the photos sent. Can’t thank them enough for giving me the freedom to go away and not worry. 😊”

“Megan is very professional and both my cats seem to love her. Even over a longer vacation I wasnt stressed because she kept me updated. My kitties were great when we got back. Will definitely be using her again.”
“Mylo did a super job dropping in and helping us out with our dogs over the holiday weekend. We were so grateful knowing that she was spending time with our dogs while we were away from our home. She gave them attention, pets, play time, fresh water, fed them, and even retrieved a beloved ball from underneath the deck and saved the day. She was communicative and kept us updated with messages and photos. We wouldn't hesitate to rebook with Mylo again.”
“Karen was kind, professional, and very easy to work with! She was very communicative and provided great updates on our two cats while we were away. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Jess is the best the world has to offer for cat sitters. Obviously, she showed up for the meet and greet and for every visit on time. But she has the heart to love the cats even when they are elusive and shy (as mine are). She cleaned all the dishes, all the cat barf, the cat boxes, and made sure water bowls were filled and clean. You won't find better. THANK YOU, JESS!”
“Ven is a great sitter! I was really nervous about leaving my cat with a sitter because she is a bit shy and needed daily medication, but Ven did so amazing with her. They stayed in communication with me and didn’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I would absolutely recommend Ven to anyone looking for care for their pets!”
“Thank you Nicole. I am so surprised that Callie came out while you were there. Brandon and I will love to have you continue as our kitty-cat sitter. Hopefully at some point you will be able to snap a photo of Coco too.”
About: I have had the privilege of caring for my own kitty for two years. His name is Greyson; a gray tabby with lots of need for attention and food. Unfortunately, I had to rehome him due to a change in my living circumstances. I loved him so much and miss being around such a lovable little guy. I am highly interested in possibly house sitting or walking your kitty, to make up for the loss of my own! I also have experience house sitting cats and dogs who live in the same home.
About: I’ve grown up with many cats and have two cats of my own whom I love with all my heart! I have become the main pet sitter for all my friends and Family ever since I was a teen. I have a passion for all animals and being able to care for them.
About: I’ve worked and volunteer at shelter for 5 years and have experience working with cats that have many different personalities and level of care such as fearful and reactive. I was crossed trained as a veterinary assistant and have given medications to cats before. I’m currently enrolled at Animal Behavior Institute and am working towards a certification in Feline Training and Behavior.
About: I haven’t had much experience in raising cats, but I do love them and am very patient with feline friends. I keep my distance to the skittish ones while cooing and playing with the more social types, I’ve got no issues cleaning out cat litter, and I’ll be sure to follow all feeding directions diligently, no matter how specific it gets.
“Jordyn was great to work with, and our kitties, who often need some time to warm up to new people, seemed to like her from the first visit. We will not hesitate to have her take care of our kitties again when we're gone. She kept us well informed and really went above and beyond in taking care of everything we asked. She was Awesome!”
About: From human babies to cats, bearded dragons and beyond, I'm excited to meet you and your pet! I've always loved animals, especially dogs, cats, and reptiles. Caring for your furry (and not so furry!) loved ones brings me lots of joy and is how I wish I could spend every day. I'm eager to please and find I'm available for daily drop ins for potty and feedings, or spending more time with your pet in the evenings while you work late. Also available for overnights up to a week, staying in your home so your animal is most comfy! I love taking relaxing walks and playing fetch, or playing in your fenced yard enjoying the warm weather. I can administer pills and monitor health conditions, and can provide physical assistance for small dogs and cats with mobility issues, like getting up and down furniture. I'm open and eager to learn administering other medication types if you are comfortable teaching! Anxious and shy pets warm to me easily, and so do senior dogs and cats! I have open availability during the summer months as I work for the school district. I want to spend my time loving and caring for your pet/s, so please let me know what your needs are and I'll do everything I can to make it work! After summer, I work part-time during the day, so I can stop by mid-morning to let dogs out to potty and play, and my evenings/weekends are open. I want to be best friends with your pet, so knowing their favorite treats and keeping their routine consistent is important to me. I promise to care for your baby like my own.
“Kara was an wonderful house sitter. She stayed at our home for 6 nights caring for our two cats. We came home to a house just as clean as we left it, all of our plants were watered throughtout her stay, and she sent the perfect amount of daily kitty updates. It's clear she genuinely cared for our home and fur babies. We would highly recommend Kara to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and trustworthy house sitter!”
About: I grew up with cats my entire life! I love cats and their personalities! I have personal experience with kittens and older kitties and I can't wait to spend time either your kitties!
“Shontaeia was super responsive and communicative each time she checked on our cat and even watered our pots as well. She always took a ton of pics and gave great updates each time! Highly recommend!”

“Hannah did a great job with our dog Teddy. Teddy was was a little nervous when we first arrived but Hannah helped him to get settled in quickly. She sent us lots of photos and kept us updated on how he was doing.”
“Georgia was amazing with my dog! She was excellent with communication and easy to work with and very flexible with my schedule. I highly would recommend her. She treated my dog like family and took great care of him.”
“Cheryl is the best puppysitter ever! I felt super confident leaving my crew of three with her and she texted throughout the day with pictures and updates! My normally super manic depressed dog when I’m gone was happy as a clam! Thanks so much for caring for my crew!”
About: My wife, Audri, and I are lifelong animal lovers with experience caring for a wide variety of pets. Audri grew up with Huskies, Malamutes, cats, rabbits, and birds, while I grew up with countless dogs and cats, as well as goats and even a pet rat. Animals have always been a central part of our lives, and our long-term dream is to have enough land to rescue and care for even more of them. As pet owners ourselves, we understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets and home. We regularly use pet and house sitters and know the peace of mind that comes from receiving updates while you're away. When your pets are in our care, you can expect dependable communication, regular updates, and plenty of photos. Our current furry family includes three cats, two rabbits, and two spunky Pomskies. We believe pets are family and take pride in providing attentive, loving care tailored to each animal's needs. From energetic dogs to shy cats and small animals, we're comfortable caring for a variety of personalities and routines. Last year we relocated from Bend, Oregon, to Spokane and are excited to put down roots in the area. While we're still in the process of purchasing our own home, we are currently available for drop-in visits and pet sitting in your home. After 6/27/2026 we would love to host your pups in our new home! We look forward to meeting you and your pets! I (Haley) primarily do the pet-sitting. I have been out of work with a back injury and have a pretty open schedule outside of PT and doctor’s appointments. When caring for your pets in your home, we will treat both your animals and your space with the same respect and attention that we give our own. We're a "shoes off at the door" kind of family, and we believe that the little details matter—from keeping food and water areas clean to paying close attention to your pet's behavior, appetite, energy level, and bathroom habits. As pet owners ourselves, we know that changes in routine can sometimes be the first sign that something isn't quite right. If we notice anything unusual, we'll communicate with you promptly so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My wife, Audri, is a nurse and is experienced in administering medications and caring for pets with special health needs. Whether your pet requires medication, extra patience, or a customized routine, we're committed to following your instructions carefully and providing attentive, compassionate care. Our goal is simple: to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, while you feel confident knowing they're in good hands.
“Haley was amazing with my VERY energetic one year old pup. She shared several photos during his stay and from those, and the fact that he was ready for a nap when he came home, I KNOW he had a wonderful time. In fact, he ran immediately to her door on the second day of the visit, ready for more action with her amazing dog, Zeus. Thank you so much, Haley, for taking such good care of our pup!”
“David and Jennifer took great care of my pup that ended up having a lot of separation anxiety when I left her. They kept me in the loop on what was going on with her and kept her safe while I attended a wedding.”
“Teri is wonderful! Great communication and lots of photos of dogs having fun! My dog adores her and gets so excited to visit. When I pick her up, she just naps in the back seat because she's so tired from playing all day.”
About: I have had a dog ever since I can remember and I am 69 yrs old. I have TIME and am reliable, because I am retired. I made sure my kids grew up with a dog and now they have my grand dogs which I love to babysit. I lost my last dog (he was 14) in 2018 and I knew I was going to retire (and travel) in 2021 so now I have my grand dogs and all my friends dogs to babysit and get my fix. I also have volunteered for Path of Hope rescue since I retired. I have a medium sized doggie door out to a wonderful patio and yard fully fenced with 6 ft high vinyl fence. I love dogs so much. They are just the most loving, gentle, and FUN animals put on this earth. I am a walker, so all dogs that stay at my house get walked everyday, with a ton of love and affection. I am going to start Rover on Jan. 2026!!!! I am retired, so I would love to walk your dogs during the day for you. (I am a daily walker anyway :) so why not?) If they stay with me, my home is perfect with a fenced yard, medium sized doggie door (but I do love and will have larger dogs too) and they will get a lot of love and attention. While I prefer crate trained dogs, it does not mean they would be in their crate during the day unless you say it is needed if I leave the house. If not crate trained I would be okay if they are a very well trained dog :) My home is just me, so dogs will get that one on one attention. I am retired so I can accommodate any feeding/walking schedules that are needed.
“Mimi and her family took such wonderful care of our Velzy girl! From the moment we met I felt at ease and so did our pup. Velzy had the best time with Chester and they got along great!Lovely home with the best backyard. We will MOST DEFINITELY be booking again and again and again. Highly recommended! Thank you Mimi + fam!!! 🧡”
About: I have experience in dogs when it comes to what they can and can't eat. I have experience when it comes to medicine And a lots more. I know to be cautious around other dogs and people. I know not to let them chew on things they shouldn't chew on. I know not to let the eat things off the ground. I know to let them warm up to you first so they aren't scared of you or aggressive to you. I know that they gotta go outside very often so they can use the restroom and play and run off some energy I also know that dogs love toys to play with and even when we play with them and show them love and attention.
About: I’m two years dogless and I truly miss the companionship and the joy that dogs bring to daily life. Joining Rover is my way of getting back into the "dog world"—offering your pets the same dedicated love, patience, and attention I gave my own for over a decade. What I Offer: • Senior Care Knowledge: Having cared for a dog through his final years, I am very comfortable with senior pups and slow walks. Don’t think I don’t love puppies too! • A "Dogs-First" Home: Since I don't currently have a pet, your dog will be the "only child" and get 100% of my attention. • Lifelong Intuition: I understand that every dog has a unique personality, from high-energy athletes to professional couch potatoes. I work from home full-time, which means your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone. My home office is "dog-friendly," and I love having a furry coworker at my feet (or on the sofa!) throughout the day. What a day with me looks like: • Constant Supervision: Because I’m at my desk, I can offer frequent potty breaks and immediate attention whenever your pup needs it. • Structured Breaks: I use my lunch and mid-afternoon breaks for neighborhood walks, games of fetch, or just some quality backyard time. • Active "Face Time": I don't just sit in another room; I enjoy the companionship of dogs while I work. Whether your dog prefers to nap quietly nearby or needs occasional head scratches between my meetings, I’m here for it. • Flexible Needs: If your dog has a specific medication or feeding schedule that requires midday attention, my WFH setup makes that easy to accommodate. My home is a quiet, hazard-free sanctuary designed for stress-free stays. • Safety First: No other pets or children in the home—perfect for anxious or selective dogs. • Open Communication: Expect frequent "pupdates" and photos throughout the day. • Expert Handling: I am comfortable with senior care, medication, and following strict house rules.
About: I've cared for dogs (small to medium size), cats, ducks, fish, chickens and some birds since in my teens. I've looked after friends, family and neighbors pets for feeding, boarding, day care, walking, play, etc… I am an artist, so I am free to be home all day therefore my availability is Monday through Sunday. My hours are flexible and accommodating to your pets needs. I have a house with a tall fenced yard and 3 dogs that are dog and people friendly. Your pets can play with mine or they can be placed in a separate area. During good weather, I leave the back door open so dogs are free to come in and out of the house. All dogs sleep inside the house together or if requested in a separate room.
“Velma was wonderful! We were going to be in town for the weekend and needed a place for our pup one of the days. Velma was willing to video chat in order to have a “face to face” prior to setting the booking, since we are not in her local area. She was flexible as our schedule changed and was able to accommodate the change. She was great with our senior dog, and she really seems to care and enjoy her furry guests! We hope to be able to utilize her services again!”
“Sarah is THE BEST dog sitter! Kind, considerate, detail oriented, great communicator. She took care of my pup Piper during the day for a few days while I was in town to watch a volleyball tournament, and I couldn't be happier with how it worked out. I really appreciated the status update text messages that Sarah sent from time to time, and it was abundantly clear from the pics she shared that Piper was totally comfortable and really enjoying her time there. Also -- a big shout out to Sarah's pup, Sully, for sharing his home and his mom with Piper for a few days! He was a great host and he & Piper got along very well. I would hire Sarah again in a heartbeat if/when we visit Spokane again!”
“Elisabeth and her family were wonderful! I highly reccomend booking her! She's very responsive and makes me feel extremely comfortable with bringing my puppy to socialize!! Thank you Elisabeth!”
“Linelle was absolutely wonderful with our puppy! We had a last-minute request, and she was incredibly accommodating and communicative throughout the entire stay. We loved receiving frequent updates and photos, which gave us such peace of mind. We truly appreciate the exceptional care and attention she provided. Our puppy was in great hands!”

“Vanessa is great, this is the second time she has been available at the last minute to help with our dog. I injured my knee and couldn’t walk her so I was super grateful that Vanessa was able to help!”
“Two weeks so far with Jalai and our Remi has been enjoying her walks and time with her. She gives us detailed walk reports and we love the pictures she sends us of our girl. Highly recommend Jalai, as we will continue to go to her :)”
About: I’ve grown up with many cats and dogs as well as volunteering at animal shelters, I have a true passion for taking care of animals and giving them the love and attention they deserve! I have become the main person to pet sit for friends and family since I was a teen so I have many year of experience caring for and loving all animals! Let me care for your animals as if they are my own! I’m currently working 3-12s so that gives my plenty of time to care for your pups and kitties, my schedule rotates but I typically have 4-7 days off in between my shifts. Let me know your needs and we can plan from there!:) I have been house sitting since I was a teen and not only is my biggest priority caring for your fur babies but also leaving a home better than when I arrived. Your animals will be loved and taken care of by someone who would love your animals like they’re my own.
About: I worked in dog grooming for a decade, and I do miss the dogs, often. I will be happy to help regardless of breed or size. I have open availability in my schedule. I work with many different service partners, and can easily adjust my schedule, with proper notice, of course. Dogs will be played with, of course! I will run them, depending on age and whether they like that. Feed them, walk them. Cats will get nozzles and pets
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats, including my own, for as long as I can remember. I have trained my pets as well as other's in basic obedience. I like to study dog psychology and I have a bachelor's degree in psychology. I've taken care of all kinds of dogs from tiny-huge and fearful-calm temperaments. My favorite breeds to care for are large breeds, most specifically breeds like pitties, mastiffs, and dobermans, but I love all dog breeds too and love how every dog has their own unique personality. I've also cared for cats doing volunteer work and have 2 of my own. I'm currently available anytime of the week all year besides the few times per year that I travel. I am working to potentially have a career with dogs. For care in the client's home, I will do whatever is instructed to me to be done for the pet. I am good at reading dog body language and understanding their needs. I've cared for fearful/avoidant dogs and hyper/clingy dogs alike. I am not able to provide care in my own home since I live with family and own 2 rescue cats.
“Milo has been amazing since day one with my puppy, Jett. She is always reliable and consistently communicates if there is ever anything concerning during her visits or if she is unable to make a scheduled time.”
About: I’ve had dogs around me my whole life; from active labs to precocious cocker spaniels to mutts with needs, I’m happy to provide the care your pets need while you’re away. I’m flexible with all play styles and feeding habits, all while staying firm against begging for food we can’t have and keeping a close eye on problem behaviors such as digging or pillow ripping. I love all kinds of dogs, from hyperactive to couch potatoes, malamutes to chihuahuas, puppies to senior dogs. I’ll be sure to keep your fluffy friends entertained and well kept while you’re away! As for walking, I always strive to make sure your four legged friend has their share of exercise and fresh air. My time is currently open to weekdays from 6 am to 11 pm. I’m happy to check on your pets multiple times a day to keep up with their schedules, and am happy to follow plans as needed. I do my best to follow any instructions provided for your pet. I’m happy to play, take pets outside into yards or for walks in the neighborhood to get their energy out, feed them on their schedules, and visit multiple times a day to keep your pet happy and entertained. I have a preference for crate trained dogs, but for those more well-behaved, I have no qualms. As for cats, I’m happy to keep quiet and leave them to their own pace, letting myself be available to them while not invading their space.
“Velma is a loving dog walker. She is very reliable, always shows up on time and always kept me informed as to whether my dog had pooped during his twice daily walks which I very much appreciated. My dog got excited and always looked forward to his walks with Velma. We will both miss her. I can't recommend her enough.”
“Valarie is a fantastic caretaker to your pet in any capacity. Rest assured if your a pet owner you will admire the expertise Valerie brings to your dog. Please take this message as a ticket for any pet owner to utilize when there away from their pets.”

About: I've always had dogs in my family, including several rescue dogs which has been super rewarding. My husband and I have been fortunate to be able to retire early but we are both very active. I want to spend my spare time doing something productive that I love... caring for dogs is a perfect fit! Most of my time is spent at my home and in our back yard. I have 2 dogs that are very social and love spending time with other dogs. They will enjoy having play-dates with your dog(s). I believe that every dog deserves to be valued and loved. I limit the dogs I board to a maximum of 4 dogs at a time in order to ensure that each dog will get proper care and attention. I don't work outside of the home. If I need to run an errand or go shopping, my husband is typically home to care for the digs. Dogs are rarely left alone, but if they are, it is for no longer than 2 to 3 hours. When the weather is nice, we keep the sliding door open so that the dogs can hang out indoor or outdoors, wherever they feel most comfortable. During the colder months we let the dogs out every two to four hours. We don't crate dogs unless that's what they're used to. We allow dogs on our furniture and in our bed.
About: From human babies to cats, bearded dragons and beyond, I'm excited to meet you and your pet! I've always loved animals, especially dogs, cats, and reptiles. Caring for your furry (and not so furry!) loved ones brings me lots of joy and is how I wish I could spend every day. I'm eager to please and find I'm available for daily drop ins for potty and feedings, or spending more time with your pet in the evenings while you work late. Also available for overnights up to a week, staying in your home so your animal is most comfy!

I can administer pills and monitor health conditions, and can provide physical assistance for small dogs and cats with mobility issues, like getting up and down furniture. I'm open and eager to learn administering other medication types if you are comfortable teaching! Anxious and shy pets warm to me easily, and so do senior dogs and cats! I have open availability during the summer months as I work for the school district. I want to spend my time loving and caring for your pet/s, so please let me know what your needs are and I'll do everything I can to make it work! After summer, I work part-time during the day, so I can stop by mid-morning to let dogs out to potty and play, and my evenings/weekends are open. I want to be best friends with your pet, so knowing their favorite treats and keeping their routine consistent is important to me. I promise to care for your baby like my own.
About: Hello! My name is Claire and I want to meet your pet! I am new to Rover but am an experienced pet sitter and care provider. I have grown up, spent time with, and cared for many different types of animals in my life, and I have loved each one. I have experience with all kids of pets, from large to small, from puppies and kittens to seniors, with a wide range of personalities, activity levels, medical needs, and all those adorable little quirks that make your pet special. Does your precious baby dog need a kiss on the head and to be tucked in before bed? Easy. Does your fancy pants cat require a spotless litterbox every time? No problem. Do I need to put on a show and act like I "cooked" a gourmet kibble meal for them every time? Done. I am very comfortable assisting with any medication needs for your animal and helping train/reinforce any training regimen you may have as well. Let me go above and beyond for your pet! I currently have very open availability and I have time to focus on Rover as my primary responsibility. I am able to commit to a regular schedule of pet care. While I am unable to host your animal in my home due to the fact that I rent, I am more than happy to travel to the environment where your pet feels the most comfortable: your home and neighborhood. I am more than happy to follow any rules and routines you may have.
“Katie was such a great help walking my dogs while I was away for the holidays. When I got back they were still pooped from their walk Katie went above and beyond making aurw their meeds were met and left us a very sweet Christmas gift. Thank you!”
About: Hello, My name is Nikcole. I’ve been around animals my whole life, I was the little girl who always brought stray dogs home and talked my parents into letting us keep them. I currently own a 90lb Golden Retriever named StilestheGR and 2 cats Millie and Montana. I used to operate a dog rescue (the stray saver in me) for 5 years and am proud to say that our operation saved and rehomed over 500 dogs. I love all animals, I would say cats are on my intermediate list of knowledge and dogs are my specialty! My main focus on Rover is dog walking/hiking or even adventure outings but I also do drop-ins and house sitting. I do currently work full-time M-F and typically have early evenings and weekends available to my rover clients. I’m available M-F evenings and all day and night on weekends. I typically only need one day notice for bookings and 3 day notice for cancelations. My current capabilities are walking dogs and house sitting. I will following your instructions exactly as listed and provide updates as many times as you would like to give you peace of mind. I can also provide a list of personal references upon request.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover who understands that every pet has their own unique personality and comfort level. Whether your pet is energetic and ready for an adventure or prefers a slower, quieter approach, I’ll meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’ve loved dogs my entire life, growing up in a family with dogs and spending about a year volunteering at my local humane society walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Today, I also share my home with two cats, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and understand their different needs and behaviors. Building trust is one of the most important parts of pet care. I know that not every animal is immediately comfortable with someone new, and I’m happy to let them set the pace. I never force interactions or push boundaries. Instead, I focus on creating positive experiences so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed at all times and stay alert to our surroundings to help ensure every outing is safe and enjoyable. I’ll treat your pet with the same care, patience, and attention I’d want for my own animals. Whether you need a midday walk, a potty break, playtime, fresh food and water, medication reminders (if applicable), or just someone to spend quality time with your pet while you’re away, I’d love the opportunity to help. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I work full time from home, but my job allows for a lot of flexibility during the day, evenings and weekends. My only immovable commitment right now is coaching softball Monday and Wednesday evenings over the summer, and the occasional work meeting that I will plan around ☺️ Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being will always come first. I strive to create a calm, low-stress environment where pets feel secure and respected. I believe trust is earned through patience, consistency, and kindness, so I always let animals set the pace and never force interactions. Whether we’re out on a walk or spending time together during a visit, you can count on me to provide attentive, safety-focused care while treating your pet like one of my own.
“Skyla was not only on-time but even spared a little extra time because the dogs wanted to sniff around on their walk a little longer! She also made time to come over ahead of the very first booking to meet the dogs and me so we could all get acquainted and she could see where their leashes, bowls, and treats are kept. The dogs LOVE her, and we look forward to booking more walks, stop-ins, etc. with Skyla.”
About: I have over 9 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including grooming, basic training, and pet sitting. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, temperaments, and needs. I was actively involved with my local humane society in Arizona where I fostered multiple litters of puppies as well as dogs with complex trauma backgrounds, helping them build trust, confidence, and readiness for their furever homes. That experience taught me patience, calm handling, and how to read animal body language closely. I also have two kitty boys of my own and have helped care for several new litters, so I’m very comfortable with kittens and multi-cat households. At home I have a very friendly, well-socialized Australian Cattle Dog who is also my trained service animal. She has excellent manners, is welcoming around other animals, and has helped me deepen my understanding of structure, training, and positive reinforcement. I truly love animals and treat every pet like family, focusing on safety, comfort, and individualized care. I’m a small business owner, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to intentionally build pet care into my daily routine. I plan my days so I can give pets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Working with animals has always been something that fills my cup, and I’ve really missed having that regular connection with pets. Now that I’ve moved to a more populated area and have more flexibility, I’m excited to work with animals again and support my community in a way that I’m naturally good at. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I genuinely enjoy making time for. I love building trust with animals and creating a calm, positive experience for them while their owners are away. My approach to pet care is calm, attentive, and tailored to each animal’s needs and routine. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely so pets feel safe and comfortable with familiar schedules, feeding times, and boundaries. In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s normal environment and keep things consistent. I provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and calm companionship. I also send updates and photos so owners feel connected and reassured. If caring for pets in my home, I create a safe and structured environment with plenty of supervision. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I prioritize slow introductions and compatibility if other animals are present. My home is pet-friendly and calm, with space to relax as well as engage in enrichment and play. Overall, I focus on safety, communication, and making sure each pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for while their family is away.

“We are repeat customers with Leslie and have been so happy with our experience every time. She takes our dog to the dog park most mornings and she sends pictures and updates.”
“My senior girl loved Janiel's place. Beautiful yard, ball throwing, and Janiel made sure to keep me updated with pics. So glad I found such a great place for Scout. She tells me she hopes to visit again.”
“Georgia was SO easy to communicate with! She sent photos and videos, was flexible with timing, and quick to respond. She has a great yard and play space and is so clearly a dog-lover and caretaker. Tillie had an amazing time with her and we will definitely be going back!”
“Milo had a great time and was taken care of exactly as his medical needs required. We appreciate the flexibility with his pickup and will certainly return if we need boarding again.”
“Our dogs always have a great time and Cheryl sends us cute pictures and videos throughout the day. We had to extend our booking by a few hours due to car trouble and thankfully Cheryl was able to keep our pups later and was accommodating!”
“Wally had a great stay at Mae’s house. They took excellent care of him. He got to go on walks everyday and had a dog bed in their living room waiting for him. Being with people is his favorite thing. We got updates and photos. Knowing he was so happy made our weekend getaway to see grandkids stress free. We will definitely request a future stay.”
“Oscar spent a few days with Heather and was clearly well looked after, relaxed and happy. The communication was great and it's always nice to receive pictures and updates—I can only recommend Heather and would happily book with her again. Cheers!”
“We always have a great experience. We can always trust Hannah with watching Leeloo. She always sends us photos and keeps us updated. We can’t thank her enough! We’ll always try to rebook with her when we can.”
“We dropped off Ziggy for the weekend after a visit to the vet where we left with four medications, a cone and a bloody paw. Philip didn't flinch. (He was two minutes from where I was visiting my mom, so we could have been there if anything had come up.) We didn't get a lot of updates, but we came back to a dog who seemed happy, and better yet, hadn't been chewing on his paw. Highly recommend.”
“Carley was friendly and sent me pictures of my dog every day which I greatly appreciated. When I picked up my dog she was happy, healthy and exhausted. I definitely recommend Carley”
“Excellent experience working with Kate! She took Juniper in for almost two weeks and I felt very comfortable with her. Flynn is adorable and they got along great”
“Tiana did great with our pups! They stayed for three nights and had a blast. Tiana provided lots of pictures, videos, and updates about how the dogs were doing. We felt comfortable with her watching them and would recommend boarding with her!”
“We left our 3 year old dog with Emily. It was our first time leaving him. Our dog Beau had no problems going straight into her care from the start. She sent us pictures and videos. We knew he was happy and well cared for. Will be booking with her in the future!”
“Chantel is amazing!! She was a pleasure to work with from booking Scout’s stay until I picked him up. My schedule changed a couple of times and Chantel graciously adapted to the changes. She took great care of Scout, sending pictures every day he was with her and he was obviously very comfortable and happy. Chantel will always be my choice of sitters in the future. Thank you so much, Chantel!”
“We found out pretty last minute that we needed to board Dempsey over Labor Day weekend and Victoria was very responsive and helpful. He had a great time and she has a nice big fenced yard to run around.”
“They accepted my booking on short notice and were very responsive when I had questions. Crystal sent photos and updates. I would definitely have them watch our dog again.”
About: * Lifelong animal lover with 8+ years of pet sitting experience for friends, family, and referrals. * Proud dog mom to Rocky, my 7-year-old Golden Retriever, who has been by my side since he was 9 weeks old. * Experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, cats, chickens, and even a bearded dragon. * I work remotely, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, companionship, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. * I only accept pets that are comfortable around large dogs and have a friendly, reliable temperament. Rocky’s safety and well-being are my top priority. * My goal is to treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind while they’re away I work remotely Monday through Friday, so my day naturally revolves around making sure the pets in my care—including my own—get plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, exercise, and outdoor time. My routine typically includes walks before work, during lunch, and in the evening, with longer trail walks or adventures mixed in throughout the week. Because every pet is different, I tailor activities to their age, energy level, and individual needs. One of my favorite things about dogs is that they remind us to step away from our screens and enjoy the outdoors. Whether your pet loves adventure or prefers a more relaxed routine, they’ll receive plenty of care, attention, and love while they’re with me. Trust is everything when it comes to caring for someone’s pets. I’ve been with the same company for 9 years, and I bring that same reliability, integrity, and accountability to every pet I care for. As a Project Manager, I’m highly detail-oriented and comfortable following specific routines, medications, and care instructions. I know every pet is different, and I take the time to learn what helps them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I genuinely love animals and don’t just “watch” pets—I enjoy spending time with them, keeping them engaged, active, and loved while you’re away. I mostly have dog sat at people’s homes. I do have a dog friendly apartment and would be open to select sittings in my home but it’s not fenced so there is less freedom that one would have in their own home.
