“Shelby was a godsend! Responsible, attentive, and kind, she took excellent care of Fluffy Girl, our Siberian Forest Cat. She listened carefully the requirements and carried them out perfectly, filing a daily record -- with plenty of photos! I recommend Shelby.”
“My cat Smudge can be a bit picky but Jordan seemed to break his tough guy attitude. She took great care of Smudge and I really appreciated her playing with him and taking pictures. He was a happy cat!”

About: I love all animals! I have previously owned and trained a Belgian Malinois rescue and a lab/pit rescue. Both wonderful dogs. I am a navy vet, dog owner and dog lover. I use positive reinforcement training methods, and I know how to read the body languages of animals. I am respectful, neat, and I'll make sure you pet is well taken care of! I offer dog sitting, and occasional boarding services. You can rest easy with the knowledge that if you hire me, they will be my number one priority. I will communicate at least once a day, and more if requested. I live in an apartment and WFH full time, so I'll be able to provide ample attention to your dog! Not that they might need it because my puppy Orion will be begging them to play nonstop! I monitor play time continuously to make sure they get along well. Sometimes if a client's dog DOESN'T want to play I make sure Orion leaves them alone. He'll just be whining on the couch. No matter the size of your dog, I'll make sure they are safe and comfortable. Orion has had experience playing with 100lb German shepherds and snauzers to mini pinchers. He loves all dogs that will play with him.
“Kim watched my 2 bunnies and did a phenomenal job. I have never felt so comfortable leaving them home! She gave detailed updates, specialized care, and even left a cute personalized note! Couldn’t have been happier, she is awesome!”
“Amy did such a thorough job looking after our two cats and house which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away! She always included details and lots of photos every visit.”
“Micaela is an exceptional pet sitter and a true animal lover. She looks after our 2 cats, Timmy and Panda. She is reliable, sends great photos, and the cats love her visits. They are always calm, relaxed, and happy when we get home. Highly recommended!”
About: Let me be besties with your pet! My schedule has a lot of flex. I also accept last minute reservations. *I have military base access.* My schedule is extremely flexible so I can provide services most days and nights. I’m trustworthy in your space and want the best for your pet. I have a fully fence backyard with plenty of space to ruuuuuun! I have two friendly pups who are fully vaccinated and love having friends over.
“Elana was fantastic with our two cats! She did house visits for about a week and took great care of them. She is very communicative and responsive and we will definitely ask her to watch our kitties again!”
“Jeremy has been an amazing dog sitter for my drop-in visits! He’s always great at communicating and consistently keeps me updated with pictures, which gives me peace of mind while I’m away. My dog can be a bit wary of new people, but Jeremy was incredibly patient and took the time to build trus which I really appreciate. It’s clear he genuinely cares about animals, and I feel confident knowing my pup is in good hands with him. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with dogs, and have been a dog sitter for friends and family for as long as I can remember. As a teen, I didn't babysit much, but I would often dog sit for the neighbors. I can't wait to go for walks, play fetch, and cuddle up with your fur babies. Dogs have always loved me, and I love dogs! I'm very good at understanding a dog's body language and reading their moods. I'm very patient and know your dog will be missing you, and I know how important it is that they feel loved while you are away. I am available to walk your dog at least twice a day, minimum 30 minutes each session. And I'm available for potty breaks all day.
“Allison has done a great job of taking care of my boy for drop in visits. Shes dependable and I look forward to her reports she fills out with pictures. I don’t have to worry when I’m away!”
“My dog absolutely loves spending time with Zoe. She is a very courteous house sitter, and a great communicator. She will regularly check in via rover messenger when she has questions. Would recommend her services to friends and family.”
“Went above and beyond! So very thankful for Lisa’s help with my animals. I had a cat and rabbit and she took excellent care of both, even cleaned their cage areas and gave them lots of love and pictures!”
About: I've been around animals most of my life and have spent lots of time taking care of them whether they be my own, friends, or relatives Just finished my first year at college and currently on summer break so I have plenty of free time available to help out however I can. If they are low energy I usually stay inside with them, take them out when needed, make sure they have water, fed at the right time, etc. If they're high energy then I take them for a walk, play in a fenced yard, nearby dog park, or if there is a good place inside the house to do so then maybe there as well. It all comes down to what the pets need at what time.
About: With over 15 years of active pet-sitting experience and a lifetime of caring for animals, I bring compassion, playful attentiveness, and calm confidence to every home I visit. In 2024, I spent four months road-tripping across the U.S., housesitting along the way and caring for 7 cats and 14 dogs in 10 households—ranging widely in breed, age, temperament, and needs. This experience left me especially comfortable quickly building trusting relationships with new animals and adapting to their individual personalities. I have extensive experience with medically complex pets, including administering pills and liquid medications, giving injections, and providing wound care. I understand the importance of consistent routines, detailed observation, and gentle handling when working with animals who require special attention. Whether caring for playful puppies, senior cats, or anything in between, I offer dependable, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I work four days a week, Thurs-Sun in the afternoon and evening. On work days, I am available in the morning and late-evening. Mon-Wed I have full availability for all types of care. I prioritize safety and active stimulation for my own pets and those I care for. In addition to maintaining feeding schedules and security, I make sure those animals in my care receive exercise and mental stimulation, depending on their needs.
