About: I’ve had dogs in my life for many years, and I’ve also helped care for my aunt’s dogs, who she groomed professionally. My patient and gentle nature allows me to connect with dogs of all personalities — from energetic pups to shy or nervous ones. I’m attentive to routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or basic training reinforcement. I follow instructions closely and am happy to help with commands, leash manners, or gentle encouragement for anxious dogs. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with kindness, respect, and plenty of love, so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is an important part of my daily life, and I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they need. I plan walks, visits, and playtime around your pet’s routine, and I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and enrichment activities. I’m available most days after 3 PM, and all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can adjust for regular visits or last-minute needs whenever possible, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I provide loving, attentive care in your pet’s own home, following your routines and instructions closely. I offer walks, playtime, enrichment, and medication if needed, making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: Hello. My name is Sheila and I have extensive experience with dogs and cats. For the past 20 years I’ve worked with rescues like…ATRA (Airedale Terrier Rescue Association) where I would do transport and foster dogs. All together I’ve fostered 5 and ended up keeping 3 of the 5 fosters. I’ve had a few cats growing up and then 1 of my own as adult. Her name was peaches and she lived for 14 years. I never even tried to replace her. I have experience with giving dogs of all ages meds, including injections. I’m used to having 3 to 4 dogs at a time but now I just have 1. I’m missing the craziness. If you’d like me to dog or cat sit for you I can assure you that I’ll love them no less than my own. ✌️ I currently have a pretty flexible schedule so I can spend quality time with your pet. I’m committed to giving your pet the time he/she deserves. With the understanding that all pets have different needs I will follow your instructions to the letter to make sure he/she doesn’t have any confusion in their schedule.

Sadie did a great job with Cozmo. He is a big dog that has a lot of energy and is always looking for attention. This was her first time meeting him and she went over and above to create a friendship by playing with him and even taking for a ride for a pup cup. I will be hoping to book Sadie the next time I need a dog sitter!

Judy took amazing care of our elderly dog, Winston, while we were overseas for over a week—and that’s not something I take lightly. It was really hard to leave him, especially with his morning and evening meds and his full-on obsession with his ball. She was incredibly consistent and detail-oriented, which mattered a lot to me. I never had to wonder how things were going—she kept me updated with photos, quick responses to texts, and just the right amount of communication to put me at ease. She walked him, played with him (ball included, of course), and genuinely paid attention to what he needs. And when we got home, the house was exactly how we left it. Beyond all of that, she’s thoughtful, easy to communicate with, and even a little witty—which made the whole experience that much better. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was with him, and honestly, I feel really lucky we found her. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Winston again.

Brooke was awesome! Very kind and came home to a very happy kitty 😊 Brooke sent pictures and updates which is always appreciated. Our flight was cancelled and had to end up driving home from the East coast the following day and Brooke was super understanding and stopped over on short notice which was a great relief 😊

Samantha is amazing. Her communication is excellent and she sent us tons of pictures. This was our first time using Rover so we were a little nervous but Samantha put our minds at ease. She is professional and friendly and came over before she watched our pups to introduce herself to us and our dogs. She was a perfect fit and plan on using Rover and Samantha again!

Kathy is simply the best!!! I can tell from the photos she sent during our trip that our Critters absolutely adored her based on the smiles on their sweet faces and we agree that she is a rare gem! Not only did she take pawfect care of our Pack, our Nest was nicely cared for as well!! I especially appreciate that she is able to spend so much time with the Critters as Critter Sitting is her main gig! Highly recommend! We’ve already booked future dates and are all looking forward to seeing Kathy again! 🐾🐾💚

Asher stayed, in our home, with our 14wk old puppy for 12days! We returned to a well trained potty trained and polite gentleman. Asher kept us updated multiple times everyday. He then wrote a report of all the training, tricks and how to continue the training. Asher also had an emergency in the middle of the stay and communicated through the whole thing …. Working with us to ensure our dog was completely taken care of. With a few hours he was back for the rest of the booked stay! I cannot recommend Asher enough. He is worth every penny and much more.
