About: I have been house/dog sitting sine the mid 1980's ( I know, a whole other century)! I have no problem staying at your place and taking care of your doggies, collecting the mail, watering your plants, or whatever keeps strangers at bay. I do have allergies to cats which is a bummer as I am a new cat-grandma but can do feedings or litter changing ( I wear a mask)- I just can't stay over. I have always had dogs in my adult life, and would love to be the "Mrs. Grandma" to your little fur baby! I work from 8am to 4pm Monday-Friday beginning Aug 8.. My evenings and weekends are free of work obligations. I do love to stay busy and explore fun things to do in and around the city or I can snuggle at home with my Winnie and a good book. I have had double knee replacements so walking dogs can be a tad difficult if it is a long journey. My dog (Winnie) has graduated to not requiring her cage during the day and a fenced in yard which she loves chasing the frisbee and tennis balls. We live near a park and Winnie loves to explore the trails. We also have a rabbit (Chip) who was originally a gift for my son and quickly became mine. Chip has an area where he resides inside but loves to be hopping around the living room.
“Madelyn was wonderful with my dog and 2 cats. The house was all in great condition when I arrived back home. She sent pic updates during her stay and was easy to follow up with. I will be rebooking her again!”
“Always super helpful and nice when I book with her. This was a last minute booking and I’m so thankful she was available. My dog has crazy anxiety and compared to the first time and this one she took barely any time to get used to Kaelin.”
“Lily was very friendly and was available rather last minute which made our lives so much easier! She was communicative and followed instructions perfectly. Would recommend her for any pet needs :)”
“Zach was a GREAT Rover. He sent frequent pictures and updates, we were never worried about how our pups were doing. We would highly recommend him and will be using him again in the future!”
“Dajon is absolutely AMAZING! We just moved into our new condo and the first time we were leaving Styles as well as the first time we used Rover. In viewing all of the pics Dajon sent, Styles had a great time and we were worry free! Dajon is timely, dependable, and a great communicator! We will definitely use him again!!”
“Excellent!!! Brittany watched our two German Shepherd in our home, both are over 100lbs and one is becoming a bit elderly. Britany was prompt and followed all our listed care needs to the letter. While we have used Rover for years, Brittany is one of the few we have found that truly loves animals, and give real love and attention to your pets. The house remained spotless and Brittany clearly took extra steps before she left. In addition, Brittany checked in with us before leaving for to make sure our flights were on time an no extension was needed. Thanks Brittany for taking great care of our very hairy children!”
“Justin was amazing! I’m so grateful he took such great care of my baby Nittany. She’s on multiple seizure medications, so I needed someone truly reliable to give them on time, and Justin absolutely delivered. He even kept a close eye on her sneaky ways of trying to avoid them (not surprised, lol)! I would 100% book with Justin again and recommend him to everyone on this app. Thank you, Justin!”
About: I have had dogs in my family since I was little and adopted a little tuxedo cat two years ago. I have worked for various humane societies and watched family and friends pets for the past 8 years. Happy to watch dogs or cats! I will be available full-time from June through early August, so pet care will be a central part of my daily routine. With a very flexible schedule, I’m able to prioritize each pet’s unique needs, whether that means regular walks, playtime, feeding, or just providing companionship. I'm committed to giving pets consistent attention and care throughout the day and adapting to any specific routines they may already have. Since I’m not able to have pets in my apartment, I provide care in my clients' homes. I focus on maintaining the pet’s regular routine in a familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and keep them comfortable. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication, or just spending quality time together. I also make sure to keep the home tidy and follow any specific instructions the owner provides.

Zachary C.
“I've known Zach my entire life and have had the privilege of seeing him raise his own pets and care for others. Few people can reciprocate a dog's welcome, but he always manages to—a quality that is reflected in the relaxed manner that dogs adopt around him. He is gentle, playful, and loving, always looking to have his pet within arms reach. I would trust him completely with any of my pets, confident in the knowledge that they will be getting the attention they need and the care they deserve. I highly recommend him, and my pets do too!”
