“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.”


“Julia has watched my 11 week old puppy a couple times now and I have nothing but good things to say about her. She is very kind and knowledgeable. She keeps me updated with pictures and texts the whole time which I really appreciate. I always feel comfortable having her in my apartment to look after my little baby. I highly recommend her!!”


“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.”


“We were so lucky to meet Theresa! This was our first time away from our pup, and she put us at ease. She sent photos and kept us updated all weekend, and Milo was so happy and well cared for! We can’t recommend her enough!!”


About: I'm available to provide the best care for all your furry (or fur-less), scaly, and or feathered friends. I understand that each pet has unique needs, from daily walks and belly rubs for dogs to creating the perfect habitat for reptiles and keeping your cat’s world enriched with toys and cuddles. I offer compassionate care tailored to your pet’s specific personality and requirements, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away. No matter the species, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family, with lots of attention, patience, and of course, treats! I'm currently working and going to school part-time, but feel free to reach out and I'll see what I can do to help you out! I always prefer to provide care in your home, and will treat your home, property and of course your pets with the upmost respect. In addition to caring for your pets, I am happy to bring in the mail or delivered packages, and provide other random services at your request as needed. I may be able to provide boarding care in my home with notice on a case by case basis provided your pet is house-trained and gets along well with my personal pets.


“This was the very first time I ever inquired for a pet sitter with Rover and am very happy I chose Robin. She held my hand through the entire process and was always prompt in responding to my questions and continued to hold my hand. Very happy with the care she gave my pets and would highly recommend her. Thanks again Robin!!”


“Jasmine stayed the weekend with my 2 dogs and cat. She did a great job taking care of them, was attentive to their needs and sent me some picture updates. I will definitely book with her again!”


About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and began attending dog training sessions with my parents when I was just six years old. From age 6 to 16, I learned more than just commands—I learned how to connect with dogs, understand their behavior, and earn their trust. My mom always believed it was important to understand how dogs think, and that’s shaped how I care for animals today. Now, I share my home with Gracie, my sweet golden retriever, and two lovable female cats. Living with both dogs and cats has taught me how to balance different personalities and routines, and I love every minute of it. Over the years, I’ve dog-sat for friends and truly enjoy caring for all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup is playful, shy, high-energy, or a senior in need of some extra TLC, I’ll be there with patience, respect, and lots of love. I genuinely believe dogs are better than people—so your pet will be treated like family while you're away. I'm comfortable with all breeds, offer dog walking and overnight stays, and will keep you updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind. During the week, I work Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, but I’m completely open on weekends and available on all major holidays. Whether you’re headed out of town or just need someone to stop in and give your pup a walk or cuddle, I’ve got you covered. I have a fully fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor play, but I never leave any dog unattended outside—supervision is always a must, even in a secure space. I believe in providing a safe, structured, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I share my home with my golden retriever, Gracie, who is super friendly and loves making new doggy friends. I also have two sweet female cats. All of my pets are spayed/neutered, fully vaccinated, and used to sharing their space calmly and respectfully. Whether your dog is staying for a visit or just dropping by for playtime, you can feel confident knowing they’ll be safe, supervised, and treated like part of the family.

“Good communication before and after booking, responsive! Received a photo check in while we were gone, which is always reassuring. Gaby seems really nice and trustworthy and I would definitely use her again!”


“This was our first time having April stay over and look after our dog and two cats. April's communication skills are incredible. She texted before to confirm, during to give updates, and after to let us know the animals were all set. Just enough communication to let us know our animals were doing well during our time away. She kept our home in great condition and locked up when she left. I know our animals look forward to having April take care of them again!”


“Tara sent beautiful photos of my girl, and it is obvious just how happy she is. Tara is knowledgeable about dog care, and identified a potential ear infection right away, and our vet told me she did all the right things and it cleared up the next day. I completely trust her with the care of my dog and my home and will definitely book with Tara again.”


About: ***Any rates listed are inflated due to service fees and might be negotiable, please inquire.*** My first (and possibly best) job ever was riding around the neighborhood on my bike taking care of neighbors pets, plants, and homes while they were on vacation. I come from a family that had one or more dogs always, and plan to continue that legacy for my family now the second our situation allows. I'm well versed in all that's typically required for dog and pet care and have always been consistently diligent about instructions from owners. Happy to come by for an in person meet and greet before starting any services! Very flexible and open currently, as I'm working various jobs, all of which allow me to construct a completely custom schedule. Let me know what you need, it likely won't be an issue! Again, I'm always mindful of specific instructions from owners firstly. My first priority is to honor the trust that owners (and their pets) place in me to do the job whether it's an afternoon walk or staying in the home for an extended amount of time. Being communicative, honest, compassionate, considerate, and reliable I consider to be standard operating procedure.

“Angela took great care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats over a long weekend! She reported on their status frequently and sent lots of pictures. We have a dog who has some fear aggression with unfamiliar people, and she was patient and understanding and was able to earn his trust. Thanks so much, Angela!”


About: I've taken care of variety of dogs and cats. When living in California I took care of two senior Dachshund with a series of medications and injections. I am also great with younger animals, I love to play with them and work out their energy. I’m currently working full time as a health care worker Monday through Thursday 7:30am-4:30pm and 7:30-12:00pm on Friday. I am available for walks, feeds, pop ins outside of those hours. My time is more flexible on weekends! Ask me about a day and I will do whatever I can to make it work! I will make sure all the pets needs are met. Water bowl refills, plenty of play time, feedings if needed. Overall safety for your pet is my first priority! I have had digs of my own with tons of energy. I currently have a senior cat and a kitten (two ends of the energy spectrum) I will treat every animal like my own.

“Sky was wonderful with our pets! She took great care of our dogs, ferret & guinea pig! She sent pictures & videos throughout our time away which we so appreciated. Our dogs have tended to be vindictive when they’ve come home from boarding but they have been completely happy & relaxed. This is the first time that we’ve had someone stay in our house but definitely not the last!”


About: I’ve had 2 Golden retrievers. One passed away in my arms. I can train puppies. I can take care of older senior dogs too. Specialize in friendly dogs, but I can work with any dog with any personality. I’m looking to make pet care a full time purpose driven endeavor. Right now working part time so I’m available for pet sitting TH, FRIDAY, SAT & SUN. In my home I have a fenced yard and my 8 year old golden, buddy. If needed I can offer in home services but I prefer to go to clients home.


About: I enjoy the outdoors and taking a walk. Your dog will have lots of play time, as well as fun, treats, food and water. I just like having a dog around to keep each other company so they are not home alone for long time period, you know getting into mischief we can do that together and have more fun haha. I currently do not have any dogs but will get one when the time is right. I have enjoyed and attended dog shows showing for obedience and agility(Dalmatians). I also attended and passed the canine good citizenship test with my first dog. My second dog was adopted and we did agility and was a lot of fun. A dog is a companion in which you meet other dog friendly people. I'm currently working full time but would have time to care for your fur kid/s before and after work, get mail, water plants, check house. I do not have a fenced yard so would take your fur kids out on a leash at your home or if fenced and you chose for them to be loose at your home.

Jesse R.
“I can’t say enough great things about Jesse. He’s incredibly affordable, reliable, and just all-around amazing with animals. My dog is super friendly, hyper, and has an endless amount of energy—but somehow, he keeps up with her like it’s no big deal. She always comes back happy, tired, and clearly well cared for. He has a natural way with animals and so much experience—not just with dogs, but all kinds of pets. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in good hands with someone who genuinely loves what he does. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, energetic, and kind dog walker!”

Tyler G.
“Let me start by saying that both my fur family and my human family love when Tyler comes over. We have had him care for our pets on multiple occasions, sometimes just coming for an hour in the afternoon when we are gone all day, sometimes staying in our home for a several days at a time. Our dog is a huge fan of the endless belly rubs, and our cat loves the quiet quality time, on the sofa, next to Tyler. I take comfort in knowing that Tyler reads and follows the instructions I leave, and always asks questions when he's not sure of something. As long as he is around, we know our pets are happy, plants are watered, and home is safe.”

“Trustworthy and Reliable! Alexis is an honest and responsible caregiver for our our 2 senior doggies that are 18 & 16 yrs old. I can rely on Alexis to give our dogs the medications throughout the day they need! When we're out of town, I see on our cameras that she gives them the love and care they need. She has even got the extra mile to send us pics and videos while we were out of the country. HIRE ALEXIS! She is the last Rover resource you will EVER need...”
