Wonderful with our pup. Sent lots of pictures. So kind when we had trouble opening the door (from the app) for her to enter. Came to our aid when we needed last minute assistance.

Tracy was an absolute blessing!! She took amazing care of my 2 cats while I traveled out of state. I received updates and pictures with each visit. It was so comforting knowing my boys where well taken care of while I couldn't be there. If I ever have to leave them again, I will be sure to rebook Tracy with Rover! Thank you Tracy!!

Devon was incredible taking care of our cat! She spent so much extra time with her, and we had such peace of mind knowing that our cat is in great hands. It’s always scary leaving your pets in the care of someone else, but Devon made it so easy. Thank you Devon!!

Allie was great. My kitty Suki who has anxiety loved her, played with her and let her pet her. She even took out the garbage for us without me asking. Allie brought in the mail, sent pics of Suki and watered plants too. Excellent! I highly recommend and will ask for her again.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a young girl. There was always a dog and cats in the house, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I recently lost my dog to old age, and I really miss that daily companionship, which is why I’d love to help care for other people’s pets. I’ve pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors over the years, and now I’m ready to open that up to more families. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I have two cats of my own. I’m patient, attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable and easy to communicate with, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m home most of the day, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention and care. I do have two kids, so with a little advance notice I’m happy to plan ahead and make sure I’m fully available for your pet’s needs. I’m an active person and enjoy going on walks, so dogs will get plenty of movement and time outside. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and sitting during the week and weekends, and I can adjust to your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. I have a fenced backyard, and pets are always supervised when they’re outside. Most of the day they’ll be with me, so they’re not left alone for long. I handle all feeding, walks, and care myself to keep things consistent and done right. I have two cats that are indoor and outdoor. They’re friendly and used to being around other animals, but they mostly keep to themselves and won’t bother your pet. My home is calm, clean, and safe. My kids are gentle and love animals, and I always make sure interactions are respectful and supervised. I treat every pet like my own and do my best to make them feel comfortable and at home while you’re away.

About: I’ve cared for small to medium-sized dogs in home settings, including overnight stays and multi-day visits. My experience includes feeding, walking, and keeping pets comfortable in their own environment while their owners are away. I’ve also managed multiple dogs at once, so I’m attentive to different personalities and routines. I focus on providing calm, consistent care and making sure each dog feels safe and supported. Pet care fits into my routine outside of my school hours, so I’m able to be present and focused during walks and visits. I plan my time so I’m not rushing and can give each dog proper attention I’m respectful of your home and your dog’s routine. I follow any instructions you leave and keep things calm and consistent so your dog feels safe while you’re away. I pay attention to their behavior and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. Your pets are like my little brothers and sisters ✨

About: I have had dogs my entire life. I love training, walking, and loving on dogs of all kinds. I have taken care of a wide range of dogs from friends, family, and others. I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with, take care of, walk, and love on your doggos. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for every pet in my care. During dog walks and dog sitting visits, I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and treated like family. I follow each client’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise routines, and safety preferences. I keep water bowls fresh, maintain clean spaces, and ensure dogs are secure on walks using properly fitted leashes and harnesses. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet owners can feel confident and reassured while away.

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life so I have a lot of experience caring for them. They become my family and I love them dearly. I treat them better than most people treat their children.

I live in a safe neighborhood with large sidewalks that are great for afternoon walks. I have a standard poodle and a mini-poodle who love to run and play together, they would make your pet feel welcomed and right at home. I also have two cats that are very friendly and loves the dogs.
