“I am very happy that I found Julie to care for my cats while I was away. She kept to my detailed feeding schedule and was patient with the boys while they warmed up to her.

“Sara was incredible! She went above and beyond any expectations for a drop-in petsitter. She noticed my cat was walking with some difficulty and researched massages that could help her. She spent time massaging Maddie's back and leg muscles and now she's walking with much more ease! She made recommendations for play toys that has given my 12-year old cat some much needed excitement.

“Carter was a great house and cat sitter. He left our house just as clean if not cleaner than when we left. He stripped the bedding and bathroom and kitchen towels, washed them and left them folded. We got great kitty updates each day with pictures. Just an overall friendly guy and took great care of our kitties. We look forward to booking Carter again!”
“I was looking for someone who could give my cat his medicine and keep an eye on him incase he was in need of anything. Jenna was awesome and I can't wait to have her come cat sit again. Thank you Jenna!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - McIntosh
“Yesterday was the first time I used the app to have kevin aka Holden , watch my dog, Ruger, but Ruger has been to his farm many times—probably over 100! Ruger absolutely loves going there and gets so excited whenever we get close to Kevin’s driveway. He knows exactly where he’s going and can’t wait to see Kevin’s dogs, goats, chickens, and other animal freinds. Kevin’s farm is an amazing place for dogs—spacious, safe fenced, well maintained and full of life. He took great care of Ruger, working with his anxiety and making sure he was fed and comfortable. Kevin’s flexibility, trustworthiness, and reasonable pricing make the whole experience even better. It’s clear that Kevin loves what he does, and that love shines through in how happy Ruger is every time we visit. I highly recommend Kevin for anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog. I’ll definitely be bringing Ruger back!”
“Darby was excellent with our girl, Cass! This was our first time being away from our 6 month old pup and we felt so comfortable that she was in good hands! Darby took Cass on a few walks and made sure she got lunch, dinner, and good exercise. Cass seemed to have had a great time and was so tired from all the fun she had when we got home. We will definitely be booking with Darby again!🤍”
“We had a really great experience! Jett & Denver were well taken care of, and it was obvious they were happy. We got tons of updates and pictures, which we really appreciated. They were also super accommodating to our pets’ needs, which made everything so much easier. Will definitely book again!”
“Such a sweet family! They took wonderful care of Tom and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone whose dog likes kids. He even had a personalized bandanna from them when he left!”
“I am so grateful to have found Jennifer! She was wonderful from start to finish. She was communicative and eager to make Sofie’s stay a great one. I highly recommend her !”
About: I have had dogs and cats nearly all of my 36 years. I have experience with walking and caring for dogs from 5 lbs to 150 lbs. I currently have a beautiful male pit bull boxer mix that loves other dogs as well. My children, ages 4 years and 9 years both love animals and would love to play with your pets! I have a very flexible schedule and enjoy going for walks. As a stay at home mother I am glad to earn some income while easing the stresses of having to be away from your pets while working or travelling. Please contact me with any questions you may have so I can start helping you and your pets today! As a stay at home mom I am quite flexible. Other than drop off and pick up times for school I am open and free. I am always cautious with new animals and slow to introduce my pets to yours if it becomes necessary. Taking cues from the animals and soft confident speech are the way to go.
“Our 3 babies had their first visit with Miss Rachel today and it went amazing. They seemed happy and well taken care of. We’re already scheduling for another day next week. Miss Rachel seems very sweet and her family all were involved as well. Thanks Miss Rachel. See you again soon”

“Hi Scott, Thank you so much to you and your family! You were all awesome and took care of Olive as if she were part of the family. She felt right at home from the very first day, and the atmosphere in your home was incredibly welcoming. We truly appreciate everything you did.”
“Bobbie is the best. Took great care of Barry. Was friendly and nice to work with. She’s flexible with her schedule, so I can pick up my pup when it works best for me. And she’s really reasonably priced.”
“First time using doggie daycare with Sonia. We could not be happier. Our 18 month old dachshund is a bit skittish. Sonia made him feel right at home. She sent us photos which relaxed us because we did not know if he would fit in. So happy with Sonia and her caring way with dogs!”
“We were very happy with our dogs care with Pamela. Our dog got the attention and activity with other dogs that he needed while we were gone for a day. And he was tired and happy when we picked him up 😀 It was nice to receive pictures thruout the day too! Will definately use Pamela's services again for our pup!”
“This was my first time my one year-old Australian terrier was using daycare or being boarded. Both he and I love Allison and her lab. The dogs got along very well because her pup is so sweet. He was very tolerant of a speedy short dog zooming around him. Allie made me feel extremely comfortable with leaving him.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - McIntosh
“Clair is great! She follows instructions, walked at Mo’s pace, and took care of him like I would. I booked longer because my dog(Mo) is a slow walker. She fed him, made sure his water bowls had fresh water and also gave him just supplements when needed, and treat. Will user her services in the future again!”
“So happy Julie was available to walk our pups. We look forward to booking with her again. She sent a photo of the pups and texted me before and after the walks. We Highly recommend Julie.”
About: Animal lover here! I take very good care of dogs of all kinds as demonstrated by my volunteer and pet sitting experience. I have volunteered at shelters with scared dogs large and small, fostered and trained shelter puppies, was a babysitter for puppy raisers with Guide Dogs for the Blind and served client families as a professional pet sitter. My role for others' fur babies is to provide care so that they have their needs met in their parents' absence. I am a great surrogate parent! I like to keep dog routines continued to minimize stress on pets and their people. For parents that don't have the time or for dogs that can use additional exercise, I can take dogs out for walks. I have also been a cat mom of 4 at once and love cats too! I have my dog, Brodie, and my routine revolves around him. I make sure he gets the memtal and physical stimulation and exercise he needs to be healthy and happy. I want to help my clients and pets with this as well for their families.

“Amanda is amazing 5atars Great communication Responded Within minutes of my inquiry . Responded with professionalism and was personable. Very sweet and easy to talk too.

I love playing with them, taking them outside, feeding and can also clean litter boxes

About: I’ve been around dogs for many years and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and following each dog’s individual routine. I also have personal experience caring for a dog with allergies, so I understand the importance of following feeding instructions, avoiding known triggers, and paying attention to changes in a dog’s skin or behavior. I treat every pet with patience, care, and attention just like I would my own dog, Korona. 🐾 I’m retired from the military, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-in visits, and plenty of playtime and attention. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while making sure each pet’s individual routine is followed.

About: Since I was young, I have always had large breed dogs in the household, Rottweilers and German Shepards, and have always been comfortable with them. While in high-school and college, my fiance and I raised puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind, 4 of our 5 puppies finished the program and were matched with people in need. We helped co-raise around 6 additional puppies as well. We also love cats, we have a tabby-calico mix named Teva, a lyxn point siamese named Minnie, and a gray siamese mix named Baby. Pima, one of the puppies that did not complete the program has been with us for 11 years now, and we have loved every moment of it. Unfortunately Pima passed away from cancer, but we do have a new addition to the family! We now have a big boy named Koa, an 80 lb American Rottweiler mix we adopted after he was found roaming Lacey Wa. He was very aggressive and untrained when we adopted him, but now he is the prime example of a model dog with our training! My schedule is very open. My wife is a school teacher so I do prefer to have the weekend off, but weekend visits are fine as well. I do have a fully fenced yard, our cats are indoor only, but one does go outside on a leash because she is adventurous. Very respectful of other's space.
About: I grew up with dogs, ive been taking care of them for a while. I can handle most animals that are non-agressive. I can keep your sweet pup safe and sound!

About: I’ve had pets most of my life, however I can’t own any where I live currently. I fill that need by watching friends animals. I’m excited to try this out! I’m a current grad student and I’m not currently working so I have a lot of in between time! I’m happy to fill that time with caring for your pets!! I moving soon to a fenced yard. I live near a park where I can bring your dog! I live in a nice and quiet also friendly neighborhood.
About: I been fostering kittens for two years with my partner, including bottle-feeding newborns, caring for young or special needs litters, and administering medications. It's been an incredibly rewarding experience and has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and animal care. I also have experience house-sitting for both cats and dogs through the Rover app, making sure pets stay happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and always treat them like my own. I work full-time, but pet care is still a big part of my routine because I’m super flexible and adaptable.
