About: I’ve been dog sitting for multiple families over the past 8 years, providing reliable care through drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays. I grew up with dogs of my own, gaining hands-on experience in everything from potty training puppies to caring for senior dogs. I’m comfortable with a wide range of needs and always strive to make pets feel safe, loved, and at home while their owners are away. I’m currently finishing up grad school and have full availability for bookings throughout April. Starting in May, I’ll be available Friday evenings and weekends outside of my clinical hours. I honor each pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. In your home, I stick closely to their usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away.

Jeffery was so great with my four cats! He made sure to send me updates and pictures every day while I was out of town for thanksgiving. They loved snuggling him and he took great care of my older baby who needed daily meds. Prompt and communicative and very sweet soul!

Nicole was absolutely amazing this weekend with our orange tabby boy. She checked on him twice a day, stayed for the full 30 minutes, and provided the best updates and pictures with each visit. I get so sad and anxious leaving my fur baby, but definitely felt relief each time she checked on him. She was the best, and we will definitely use her again! -Abbey

I love little furry friends and I enjoy play time and will take great care of your dog like I do my own. I am available as needed and can make necessary arrangements to ensure you and your pup are taken care of! I am flexible ,dependable, and can make any accommodations as necessary. I am willing to stay in your home so your baby can be in their own environment, pop in for visits, or just go for walks! I'm here for you! Message me, I'd love to talk and answer any questions or discuss how to best accommodate you! Currently working from home so I have a flexible schedule that I can do walks during the day and constantly check in as needed. My schedule is pretty consistent. My apartment is a townhome style with plenty of space to move around and the neighborhood is very safe and walkable. The safety of your pet is my priority always. I have A baby/doggy gate to prevent accidents on the stairs.

Jade was so great! She was so accommodating with a last minute request and definitely made me feel at ease being away from my two pups for a few nights with her drop-ins. She always sent through great pics and updates about the dogs. We can’t wait to book with her again!

I was left in a lurch a week before a trip by my previous sitter. Hannah stepped in and did an amazing job! My dogs behaved like they do when I am here!! This was her first time with my three kids! I am in the process of booking her again. Highly recommend!

Excellent updates and pics. Very attentive and responsible—went above and beyond keeping our three big dogs entertained and cared for while we were away. Five stars!

About: I currently have 2 kittens and i had a dog for about 10 years so i love all kinds of animals and have experience with both cats and dogs :) I work full time, mostly early morning shifts so i’d be able to stop by and spend the night and make sure they’re taken care of. I am usually off Thursdays and Sundays and would be able to do more on those days. I will do whatever my client wishes, since i am not able to house any animals in my house; I will follow the rules for your particular household.

She was very easy to work with, and gave timely updates during her visits with my dogs. They both seemed to be in good spirits when I got home and in all the pictures she took of them. I would request her services again in the future.

About: Love living in the area, I have always enjoyed spending time outside in all seasons. On any kind of day, I would love to give your family member a walk/run in the neighborhood or at a nearby park/path or whichever they prefer to get some fresh year and exploration through the smells/sights. For the playful pup, I love to run around and play with them until the sun goes down. I have experienced many years with easy and difficult dogs as being a pet owner myself, finding love and care for all creatures all life from dogs all the way to my 3-year-old goldfish. I can not wait to meet your furry family member and give them all the pets and love they fully deserve!

Cory & Stacey were Great! They treated our cats as if they were their own. Their daily comments reflected the careful attention they paid to them. And the pictures taken always helped to reassure us that the cats were in great hands. We will definitely ask for them the next time we need them!

I have needy cats! One will not stay out of your lap and the other has a medication list a mile long. Hannah was fantastic with both and I would gladly trust her with my boys anytime.

Kelly was AMAZING!!! Her timing was prompt & she went above and beyond my expectations. Working long shifts in healthcare leaves me so stressed knowing my furbabies are at home alone & knowing they got such good care from Kelly was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Seriously, I can’t thank her enough. For taking the extra time to walk her, making sure she got multiple potty opportunities, and the photo updates. Highly recommend 🤩

I can’t say enough good things about Aunt Cindy! Leaving our cats is never easy, and this was the first time we had left some of them with a sitter, so I was definitely anxious. From day one, her detailed Rover cards, consistent updates, and tons of photos helped put my mind at ease. I genuinely looked forward to every update and felt so much better knowing exactly how everyone was doing. Our cats are very shy and don’t get much exposure to people outside of our household, so I fully expected some of them to spend the entire time hiding. To my surprise, she managed to get even our shyest cats to come out, play, and engage with her. That alone speaks volumes about her patience and understanding of animals. She also administered medication to our cat Penelope without any issues and clearly paid attention to each cat’s individual personality and needs. What stood out most to me was how obvious her love for animals is. She genuinely cares, and as a pet parent, that means everything. It made my heart so happy knowing our cats were being cared for by someone who loves animals as much as we do. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and complete peace of mind. I would book with her again in a heartbeat and honestly wouldn’t hesitate to pay whatever rate she asked. She is absolutely wonderful, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

We left our boys for the first time overnight and we were very nervous about it because they have a lot of stomach issues so feeding is peculiar. Niagara was absolutely amazing and accommodating to ease our minds! We will definitely be looking to book her again!
