“Carla took extra time to get to know our anxious little dog before she came to stay with him while we were traveling. He was relaxed and happy when we came home and she was the perfect guest, so considerate. We have already asked her to return.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets and homes for over 5 years, with experience ranging from daily visits to long-term stays. I’ve worked with pets of all ages and needs, including those who require medication or special diets. 🐾 I work from home, which means I can spend the majority of the day keeping your pets company, making sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained. 🏡 I’ve grown up with dogs of all shapes and sizes from tiny Teacup Pomeranians to gentle Irish Wolfhounds and I adore cats just as much. My priority is to give you peace of mind while you’re away by keeping your pets happy and your home well cared for. I also love sending regular updates and photos so you can see your furry family is safe, happy, and in loving hands. ❤️ *I am willing to travel for pet-house sitting longer distances* I work remotely, which means I have the flexibility to be with your pets throughout the day. Whether it’s taking them for walks, playing in the yard, or just keeping them company while they nap, I’m able to give them plenty of attention and care. Your pets won’t be left alone for long stretches, they’ll have a buddy by their side. 🐾 I am offering pet care, & house sitting in a clients home, walking, feedings, and maintaining your home. I look forward to taking care of your fur-babies, with the same love and care as my own pets.
“Liseli is an absolute delight-our dog Winnie was super comfortable with her from the first meeting. Winnie was in great spirits when we got home. The house was in A+++ condition! Thank you, Liseli! So happy!!”
“One of my favorite Rover sitters! Communication was great! Fallowed directions. I came back after a long day to happy tired dogs. Falisity walked and played with my dogs. If you are at Shore Hills campground look for her on Rover”
“Jason was fantastic. He helped me in a pinch and was prompt, communicative and generally happy to spend time with Chloe (my dog). Received photos and updates. Very good experience, will certainly book again. Thank you Jason!”
“Caroline and Kurt were great!! We came home to happy pups and a clean house. They were great at communicating, asking questions, and sending pictures. We never had to worry if our pups/house were in good hands. Will definitely be using them again in the future and would highly recommend!!”
About: I grew in a home full of dogs and cats. I have experience with dogs from young pups to older dogs as well. I truly want to help and support pets and people in anyway I can. I am a teacher so I am available on weekdays after 3pm and anytime on the weekends. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. I cannot welcome your pet into my home in my current housing situation but I will provide any necessary care to your family including walks, drop in visits, and house sitting.
“Jennifer and her family took care of my dog for a week while we were out of town. Her detail to his well-being was exceptional and she offered many additional things such as giving him a bath, cleaning a gooey ear, offered to trim his nails and a calming care supplement for his nervous sensitivity. Upon return, I could see he had been in good hands! In the past when we’ve gone, he’s ended up with hotspots from stress, but this time his coat was healthy, and he seemed to relaxed.”
“Atlas is the best dog sitter we’ve found on this app - probably that we’ve found ever. We cannot recommend her more highly. She went above and beyond for our dogs and was quickly our reactive dog’s favorite person. We’ll be booking with Atlas for all our future travel and dog sitting needs.”
About: I have vet med experience that sets me apart, as I have handled all personalities. I have knowledge and experience with special need, and meditations. I do have a full time job, I can accommodate any homes that live that life. Available to stay in your home weeknights & weekends. I don’t care for them in my home. As I have an apartment and this in your home care only. I hope you understand this.
About: Having previously worked at a humane shelter and a doggy daycare, I understand that dogs require a lot of care, love, and patience! I'm pretty good at reading their body language and I love putting in the extra work to get shy or reactive dogs to trust me. I will do everything I can to make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for! My schedule is wide open to housesit, dog walk/enrichment, and check-ins whenever it's needed. Let me know what you and your pet need, and we can schedule something! I will do anything I can to make sure your pet is comfortable, entertained, and loved while you are away. You'll return to see the house just as you left it (with absolutely no judgment if it's cleaned or cluttered) and a happy pet!
About: I’ve had dogs in my house for as long as I have been alive and have a great love for dogs and cats alike. I have years of experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats. I currently work a full time job but have Sunday through Tuesday off every week and have plenty of time to drop in and feed or play with your pet as well as take your pet for a walk. I am un able to take dogs into my home as my current residence does not allow dogs, but I am more than happy to drop in to your home and take care of your pet.
“Nikki was wonderful with my two dogs. She came over for a meet and greet before and was very responsive the entire time while I was away. She sent picture updates and my dogs loved staying with her! I'll definitely be using her again.”
About: I have owned and taken care of dogs almost all of my life, I have experience with puppies and old dogs. I have a large private property with a long dirt road for long walks, and a fenced in front yard . Dogs really love it here. I am a retired school teacher with lots of energy and time to spend with your furry family member. There is plenty of love and fun times to be shared here, I have 23 acres for long walks, a fenced in front yard and a lake to swim and chase balls. I also have a large deck for drying off before coming inside. Your dog will love it here!
About: I have a dog allergy that I take medicine for. I am willing to work with dogs. I am hoping that exposure to dogs will help my allergies improve. I am flexible with my schedule. I can accommodate and move around my days depending on your needs. I have a 4 year old, so it will all hinge on her care. I have a senior cat living with me. I know how to follow dietary or physical restrictions set by the pets' owners. Clear instructions are key.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 15 mostly for my moms coworkers and family members who were going on trips. I would stay overnight for them and watch over their pets. I've fed, watched, bathed, and walked their pets for a day or overnight at times as well. I'm currently working part time but only work on Tuesdays from 3:30-5 as of right now. My classes end relatively early but also start later depending on the day so early/mid-day/evening walks/visits are very flexible with my classes and work schedule. I need another source of income and LOVE dogs :) I will give your pet 100% of my attention the entire time I am at your home. I will take them on walks if you request me to and I will play with them until they fall asleep. I will give your dog as much love and care as I would give my own.

“Stephanie is truly a gem! She makes it so easy for us to enjoy our time away, knowing our pets are happy and our home is in the best hands. Our dogs and cats absolutely light up when she arrives — they know they’re in for love, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. She’s responsible, respectful, and treats our home like it’s her own. What we love most is that she’s willing to travel, so whether we’re at home or up at our place in New York, she’s always happy to be there. Having Stephanie watch our pets feels like leaving them with family, and we’re so grateful to have her in our lives!”
