“Zachary was so kind and conscientious of my older dog. Stayed a couple of nights and took great care of my home. Also, I came home to a calm dog and a clean home. He also gave me some great advice on end of life for my 17-year-old boy.”

“Having Hunter stay with our pets was a great decision. My dogs (pandemic puppies) get VERY excited when people come by so they were extra happy to have Hunter with them for a few days. I was at ease while she was staying with them and would book her again if the need arises.”

About: From our family pets to neighbor pet sitting. I walk, play, bathe, and relax with pets at their homes or at the parks. I want them to enjoy the day and be able to explore around town on their walks. I’m currently working full time hybrid office opportunity. I am able to work from home and can spend time with the pets while working. I do have tax seasons where I am in office but can walk dogs during lunch time or on the weekends I am working from home and work is flexible with this. I follow any instructions given to me by the client on how to make their pet comfortable at their own home and be able to enjoy their time at home

“Definitely above and beyond the call of duty. 3 nights away and cared for like i was here myself. Took on the challenge of feeding a raw diet to my 5 dogs and passed with flying colors. Didn't mind that they were bed hogs at night. Not small dogs either. Highly recommend!”


About: I’ve always been comfortable with dogs of all types. I grew up with dogs and have spent my whole life around animals, so caring for them feels natural to me. I’m calm, confident, and make sure to adjust to each dog’s individual needs so they feel safe, understood, and well cared for. I work full‑time during the day, but I’m available in the early mornings and evenings to take care of your pet. That gives me plenty of time for feeding, walks, playtime, or whatever they need before and after work. Mondays are my completely open day, so I’m available all day then for longer visits or extra care. My goal is to ensure your pet feels genuinely cared for. I pay close attention to their routine and what they need, and I make sure they stay comfortable, happy, and relaxed the whole time they’re with me.
“Keleigh is the best dog sitter we have used. She understands our anxious dog and makes a concerted effort to ensure she feels comfortable and safe. Keleigh goes above and beyond and I can’t recommend her highly enough!! Thank you Keleigh!”

“God/Goddess thank you for Katie & her hubby too. Quilly was so so happy in the pictures and when I came home. Incredibly trustworthy and friendly lady (neighborly too! ) to care for pup.”

“Madeline took great care of my babies. She communicated every day, and asked questions when she was unsure of behaviors, which I appreciated. My pups were happy and calm when I came home telling me they were well taken care of and loved. I will definitely have Madeljne stay with my pups again.”

About: Hi! I’m Nicole, a 27-year-old animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m confident in providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m friendly, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time playing, walking, and bonding with animals. I look forward to meeting you and giving your pet the care and attention they deserve! I am normally available Wednesday and weekends, For more descriptions and availability check my profile information, can’t wait to meet your family! ! ! I am currently available on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays only, and I make sure to dedicate focused, quality time to each pet during those days. At the moment, I don’t offer care in my own home since I have multiple pets. However, I’m happy to provide care in your home or take your dog out for walks. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment while sticking to their usual routine.
“Simply put….Exceptional! I cannot give Kathryn enough praise. Our pets are our family and she took that to heart. She kept us updated the minute she walked in the door with pictures and texts. She rarely left their side and any concerns she had she contacted us ASAP! I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation and my pets loved her as much as we did!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up with pets and continuing that today with animals of my own. That experience has helped me understand different personalities, energy levels, and the importance of consistency and routine—especially when it comes to dogs and their daily walks. As a full-time art teacher, I’m used to being dependable, attentive, and organized, and I bring that same level of responsibility to every walk. Whether your dog needs a quick outing or a longer walk to burn off energy, I’ll treat them with the same care, patience, and respect that I give my own pets, making sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. As a full time teacher, I am usually home by 3pm and off on the weekends. I am available for afternoon and evening care as well as weekends. During July and August my schedule is far more flexible and would be available at all times of the day, 7 days a week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, the goal is to keep their routine as normal, calm, and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication needs, and any specific habits or preferences the pet is used to. I treat every home with respect by keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as I found them. As a full-time art teacher, being responsible, organized, and trustworthy is a big part of my daily life, and I bring that same mindset into every pet sitting visit.
About: Hey there – my name is Madison, and I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. As an adult I have had the opportunity to be around lots of cats and truly appreciate each of their individual personalities! I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I have taken care of dogs who need meds, older dogs, puppies, etc. I wish I could have pets of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it’s sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy! I am a realtor and have a very flexible schedule. I am looking to book out the gaps in my schedule and fill them with taking care of your fur babies! I am very happy to offer drop ins at your home and to take your pets on walks. Unfortunately, I am unable to care for your pets in my home at this time.

The very definition of integrity is doing the right thing in any given situation whether there is a consequence or not. I wholly endorse David.”

“Nina was great. She stayed at our house for the week with our two dogs and you could tell by the pics they loved being with her. When we got home music was playing and the bed was stripped and in laundry. Would highly recommend.”

Maria did a wonderful job taking care of my girl Birdie while I was away on vacation. My dog is a little wary of new people, but she took to Maria right away and the two of them became good buddies! I got lots of photos and updates of them playing and having fun, so I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing that my dog was in good hands. Maria has a great personality and made me feel comfortable right from the start. I highly recommend her and will use her again!

Kadriya was great with both my dogs, they loved her. She sent pictures and updates the whole time which made me feel more comfortable about leaving them. Kadriya was an awesome house guest and left everything very nice and clean. I am happy I found someone I can trust my dogs.
