“Mikayla was amazing with our Muggsey. She sent updates and pictures that made my day. I definitely will hire her again and highly recommend her for your pet. She definitely has a beautiful spirit with animals. ❤️”

“Zia was fantastic. Excellent communication, daily updates, and kept the house spotless! Our boxer was very comfortable with her. She was timely, and even stayed a little late when we had a late return flight so our boy wouldn’t have to be inside too long. Very professional, and clearly loves animals. We will be reaching out again in the future!”

About: My résumé includes dogs, cats, muddy boots, mystery noises in barns, and convincing animals that the thing they absolutely do not want to do is actually a great idea. I've learned that patience, consistency, and a pocket full of treats or a favorite toy solve most problems. Animals have always been a huge part of my world. On any given day, I might be caring for horses, spending time with my dogs and cats, or helping a nervous animal feel comfortable in a new situation. I understand that every pet is different. Some want a long walk and a game of fetch. Some want a quiet companion who respects their space. Some have very strong opinions about breakfast arriving precisely on time. I have experience caring for animals of all ages, from energetic youngsters to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with large dogs, multi-pet households, and pets with established routines that need to be followed carefully. Friends often describe me as observant and dependable. I pay attention to details, communicate clearly, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's personality. Whether your pet is an adventure buddy, a professional napper, or a lovable troublemaker, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. As a lifelong animal owner, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will treat them with the same attention and respect I give my own. I currently have flexible availability most days of the week and can often accommodate pet care requests around my existing animal care responsibilities. Caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and showing up when expected. Beginning in August, my availability will shift as I start graduate school, and I will primarily be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I believe in being upfront about scheduling and only accepting bookings that I can fully commit to, so you can count on reliable care and clear communication. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to follow it as closely as possible. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, meals (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and attention tailored to their personality. Some pets want to play, some want belly rubs, and some prefer a quiet companion who respects their space. For walks, I focus on safety, consistency, and making sure your dog gets both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I pay attention to weather conditions, energy levels, and each dog's comfort and confidence. I also keep an eye on the little things. As someone who has cared for animals for many years, I know that changes in appetite, energy, mobility, or behavior can be important. If I notice something unusual, I will communicate it promptly. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the household itself. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, and for you to come home to a happy pet and a home just as you left it.

“A huge thank you to Isabella for making our first trip away from our pup worry free. This was the first time in eight years Rocky has been left with someone other than family. She was an absolute rockstar! She reassured my husband and I that Rocky was in the best hands possible. She came to our home to take care of Rocky for the duration of our trip. The entire time we were away, we received photos and texts updating us on Rocky’s adjustment. Turns out Rocky was fine. It was his parents that needed reassurance, which, by the way she was completely understanding of. I would 1000% recommend Isabella. She was patient loving towards our baby and extremely responsible. She was right he was in the best hands possible we will be using her again.”

“We absolutely love when Ted has the availability to watch Waylon, our dog for us! Ted is incredibly responsive, caring, and our dog loves him. We don’t worry for a minute when he’s watching Waylon and that is priceless to us!”

“Carlee was amazing! I hope to hire her again in the future. Our pups LOVED her and she did such a great job updating us about them, how they were doing, and sending pictures. It gave us such peace of mind to have someone watching them where they were comfortable.”

“Alex is amazing with animals and was great with my dog daisy. I have a 2-year old mountain feist that still has a lot of energy and Alex was able to give her the exercise and attention that she needed while I was away.”

“Tyson was awesome, my dogs felt immediately comfortable around him. His knowledge of behavior and training was such a wonderful bonus. My husband and I were able to enjoy our trip knowing our home and large dogs were well cared for!”

About: I have had dogs all of my life since I was 4 years old. I didnt start to take up the responsibility to take care of them until I was about 7 or 8 years old. I have had a range of dog breeds and sizes in my care from a golden retriever to a toy Aussie. I love take care, play and just hang out with animals. I currently work as a middle school teacher so my summers are pretty free! Whether it’s a one day check in or a vacation, I will happily spend my summer with your pups! I will follow whatever needs you have for your dog(s) whether I have to house sit, walk, or just hang out with your animal for the day. I want to make sure you are comfortable with the care I give them.

“Mya was wonderful with our furry crew! Mya sent us daily videos, this allowed us to enjoy our time away knowing they were being well cared for. I would definitely use Mya again!”

“Irma stayed at my apt for 48 hours and dog sat for my 43 pound corgi, Batman. She was very loving and took excellent care of the love of my life. She sent constant photos and videos to help me miss him less. She is very sweet. I strongly recommend Irma for all of your dog walking and sitting needs. 10/10!!!! Thanks, Irma!”

Christopher L.

“Janisa was truly amazing! She was incredibly responsive, answering right away and asking questions when needed. She followed every direction and sent so many pictures of our dogs, which was reassuring. The dogs absolutely loved her, and we felt completely confident leaving them in her care. She was trustworthy, respectful, and left our home exactly how we left it. We will 100% be rebooking her in the future. highly recommend! :)”

“Kashawna was incredibly caring and kept us in the loop on any changes in our babies while we were gone. We will absolutely be using her services again!”

Kristina S.

“Frances was Wonderful taking care of my babies while I was on vacation. I was gone for 5 days, and have two dogs….a German Shepherd and a Boxer, and they were well taken care of. I would highly recommend Frances for any of your dog sitting needs and will definitely use her again!”

Tracie S.

“I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful Dennis is. He and his wife (also on Rover) is how we connected. They have both cared for our babies since beginning of year. I trust them wholeheartedly and would recommend them to anyone! I’m beginning to wonder if my fur babies love them more than us 😆. They get overly excited when I tell them Mrs Sara and Mr Dennis are coming to visit. They are punctual and take extra care of the pets and house. Very attentive, loving and cogzinant of personalities and behaviors. They found a rather nasty sore on two of my babies that I would’ve probably never found or thought to even look for cause the babies never gave me reason to believe anything was wrong/bothersome. So thankful for them!!”

“We needed someone to house/dog sit while we were out of town for a week. Jonathan was great! We could tell the dogs got lots of long walks and plenty of attention. We would definitely rebook him!”

JG W.

“Carltyn went above and beyond with my shepherd who recently had knee surgery! Not only did she administer his meds and monitor his bandages, but she also took him to the vet when we learned last minute that his leg was infected. We would not have been able to go on our trip without her wonderful care!”

Isabel Mabree S.

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for friends and family, including walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and energy levels, from playful puppies to relaxed seniors. I currently live with and help care for three dogs (ages 1, 3, and 12), so I’m very familiar with managing different needs! I work part-time hours, so my time is pretty open overall. My schedule is set for each week, so my availability will be posted well in advance. I make sure to keep a consistent eye on animals even if they seem to be low maintenance. That includes indoor/outdoor time and during walks. If you have any safety concerns regarding your pet, just reach out.

“Everything seemed to go great. Very quick responses. House was even cleaner than we left it. My dogs seemed to really like her, and they seemed completely happy and stress free when we arrived home.”

“Diego gave me peace of mind tending to my dog while I was away! He’s really great and send some pictures to let me know everything was going great! He always checked in with me to let me know when he arrived and when he was taking the dog out for a walk. Will deff use him again! He’s a great guy and also was available to do a meet and great before hand 💜”
