About: I originally grew up taking care of rabbits,guinea pigs, and chinchillas, which included grooming / shaving/ nail clippings and baths. I even litter trained them myself. I learned at a young age how to be gentle with all types of small animals and the importance of a clean environment. I am also available for exotic animal drop in visit care services (rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas). In my later years I fell in love with dogs and cats. I rescued all of my cats from trees and crawl spaces and learned how to cut their nails as well. When I got my first schnauzer - I learned the joy of training, patience, and positive reinforcement. My favorite thing to do is walk and spend time with animals, so it only makes sense that I create a lifestyle conducive to the things that bring me joy. I love spoiling dogs with special treats and I always talk to them like I would a person because they are so smart and pick up so many words. Walking with dogs outside, playing, chasing squirrels, and the joy of fresh air is my favorite thing to do. No walk is ever long enough for me. I am highly interactive and assertive to animals needs and I know how important positive energy is for their wellness. A good environment allows them to thrive and trust the company they are with. I am currently working part time, and I have a somewhat flexible work schedule, so pet care is something I enjoy and do daily as I have a pup of my own. I share my pup part time with my ex partner, so I have many days available to help take care of other animals. If it was completely up to me I’d have a tiny farm. I love animals so much and walking dogs is my absolute favorite pastime. I live in a one bedroom apartment with my cat Penny. My pup visits me two days a week. My cat is very dog friendly because she is used to my pup visiting twice a week. Fresh water, teeth brushing, home cooked meals/kibble are all things I do and I have stairs for smaller dogs to come on my couch. No areas in my home are off limits to pets.
About: I’m a huge dog lover who’s been around dogs my whole life! I have experience with many breeds — from Pitbulls and Huskies to Chihuahuas and all kinds of mixed breeds. I’ve even sheltered stray dogs, helped them find loving homes, and volunteered at animal shelters. Right now, I have a high-energy Pitbull mix who keeps me active and reminds me how important daily walks, playtime, and affection are for every dog. I believe all dogs deserve to be treated like family — with patience, love, and care. Whether your pup needs a brisk walk to burn energy, a calm stroll to sniff and explore, or a quick drop-in visit for food, play, and cuddles, I’ll make sure they’re happy, safe, and cared for like my own. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule! Available before 9 AM and after 4 PM on weekdays, with more flexibility on weekends for walks and drop-in visits. During walks or drop-in visits, I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I follow your routine closely — from feeding and potty breaks to playtime and cuddles — so your dog feels secure and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, tortoises, guinea pigs, and more. I love them like they are my own, and give them constant care. Taking care of your pets, and your home is my number one priority. I will take care of both like they're my own, with respect and love. I offer in-home pet- and house-sitting for those who are looking for someone to love their pets and take care of business at home, without worry
“My cats instantly trusted Ciai, which says a lot! She fed them, cleaned their litter, and spent time playing with them so they weren’t lonely. She was reliable, caring, and made me feel at ease while I was away. Highly recommend her and will definitely book again.”

“Courtney did an amazing job with our little Maltese Teddy. It was his first time being left at home and he can be quite nervous around new people. Courtney came twice a day to feed and walk Teddy and reassured us with notes and photos that all was well. Highly recommend Courtney’s service and would use her again and again. THANK YOU!!!”

About: I’ve spent the last 10 years walking dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and caring for animals is truly one of my favorite parts of life. I’m super active, love being outdoors, and I’m always excited to take your pets on runs, hikes, or long adventures. If your pet prefers a slower pace, I’m just as happy to enjoy cozy couch cuddles and calm hang-outs. I’m also a cat mom, so I fully understand the different needs and quirks of both dogs and cats. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or just keeping their routine consistent, your pet will be treated like family. My partner and I both have very flexible schedules, which means one of us is always home and available to give your pet attention, supervision, and love throughout the day. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 💛🐶🐱 I’m self-employed and work entirely on my own schedule, and my boyfriend does the same. Because of that flexibility, we’re able to ensure that someone is always home to give your cat consistent care, attention, and supervision. Your baby will never be left alone for long periods — they’ll have company, comfort, and plenty of love throughout the day. We live in a home with a spacious, fully fenced backyard that has plenty of sun and grass for your pet to enjoy safely. We’re also just one block from a large park with a huge open grass field, perfect for playtime, walks, and outdoor enrichment. I’m a very clean and organized person, and I always clean up after pets and keep spaces tidy. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll make sure everything stays neat, maintained, and respected while you’re away.
“Stephanie was great with our dogs. We forgot to leave our leashes outside for her to walk the dogs and she was able to bring the leashes that she had over to walk them while we were away. I would recommend her and will use her again.”

“Kevin is an exceptional cat sitter who went the extra mile. He took the time for a meet and greet to understand Ragnar and Freya's needs. He provided adorable pictures and detailed updates, demonstrating his expertise and care. Will definitely book him again in the future. Thank you, Kevin, for your outstanding service!”

“Susan was a lifesaver! She was able to help us in a pinch with our special dog Zoey. She took amazing care of Zoey and kept us updated everyday. We felt very comfortable with her in our home. We are so thankful for her help and so happy to find someone who loves and cares for Zoey. We will definitely be using Susan again.”

About: I have taken care of puppies up to senior dogs for 8 years! Family and friends trust me to watch over their fur babies because I love and treat them as they were my own! I pay attention to detail and you can trust your fur baby will be taken care of very well! I work from home so I am home basically all day every day. I take breaks to take my own pup out, so I have time to take your pup out or do a drop in visit as well. I live in an apartment and my door is always closed at all times. If I do have to open the door for any reason I make sure the pups are no where near the door or I can make they are crated if needed.
“Excellent fur baby sitter. Reliable and on time. I still have a kitten (and her big brother) so was worried about leaving the baby. But she did great. I would absolutely use her again.”

“This was our first time using Rover for drop-in visits, and Erik made the experience very smooth. He even did a meet-up beforehand to make sure our dog was comfortable with him. He was very responsive and great at giving updates, which gave us peace of mind. Highly recommend him!”

“We were nervous because This was our first trip away from our new cats, but with Sami we had peace of mind 😺. She gave the cats lots of love, and had fantastic communication. Came home to healthy and happy cats, Would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter”

“Josephine is friendly, prompt and reliable. She took care of my dog while I was in the hospital and helped 100% of my worries of leaving my dog behind. My dog loved having her walk her. I will use her services again in the future.”

About: Experienced caring for dogs of all sizes, including feeding, walking, bathing, administering medication (oral), and providing patient, reliable, hands-on care tailored to each dog. Also have experience with cats, birds, and exotics. I’m currently unemployed, so this would be my full time work. I’m currently available any day and anytime. So I will be able to care for animals full time. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, litter or potty cleanup, medication if needed, and attentive companionship. I keep the home tidy, respect house rules, and send regular updates with photos so owners feel confident and informed.
