“Paige is my first intro to Rover and it’s been a great experience so far. She is great with communication, offering detailed updates and is quick to respond. The care and time she gave to my pup made me feel more comfortable about (my first time) leaving her for a big stretch of time. Thanks Paige!”


“Elizabeth did a wonderful job visiting our pup to take him on a walk and then play with him inside as it was too cold to walk. He was happy and tired after! Thank you, Elizabeth!”

About: Hi! I’m Emily and I have the best job in the world! I work with humans and dogs to create a strong foundation built on trust, guidance, respect, and leadership. Backstory: I mentored with a veterinarian through high school, and I was so blessed to get incredible hands on skills medically caring for dogs and cats (and even some hamsters and birds)! Due to this, I’m very comfortable with the often not-so-pretty side to dirty messes and medical needs. If you have a pet with special needs, let’s chat about how we can keep them the most comfortable and cared for in my home! I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Human Development and Family Studies before moving overseas. There, I ran an animal rescue, overseeing the care and fostering of about 100 cats and dogs at a time, many of which I helped foster. Once stateside, I decided to continue working with animals and add in “human” training. I began training basic obedience and correcting behaviors for puppy and adult dogs, and I also worked with psychiatric service dogs. Throughout this, most owners I spoke with felt THEY were the ones lacking knowledge, and so I’ve adapted my training and care to the needs of ALL family members. Turns out, my degree wasn’t for nothing ;) About our family: I have a baby girl, two wonderful stepsons, three dogs, and three kitties that make our family wild and so lovely. We are an outdoorsy family, and we all take part in the care of the animals. Our kiddos have grown up learning to respect pets’ boundaries, and we are well versed in the proper introduction for the safety of all. I can’t wait to hear about your family and how we can best serve your pet care and training needs! I work from home, so I’m available during the day to accommodate your needs. Please, look in advance for weekend and holiday availability, too, as we try to help others with their pet care needs during busy times when we know we’ll be around! I have a vinyl fenced in yard. My dogs are crate trained, and I typically crate dogs overnight who are comfortable with it for their safety and to keep them out of trouble!

“Tara was amazing, if I could do more than 5 stars I would!! My dog can be a little psycho sometimes and she took such great care of him. There was a day that the park was closed and she took him back to her house to play fetch. She's such a caring and trustworthy person anyone would be dumb to not choose her to watch your pup! Thanks so much Tara for being so great!!”


About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was old enough to fill a water bowl! Growing up, my mom was always rescuing animals, so I had the privilege of learning how to care for pets of all kinds. Whether it was helping with medications, being gentle with nervous rescues, or lending a hand in training, I developed a lifelong love for animals—and a knack for making them feel safe, loved, and happy. These days, I’m the go-to pet sitter for my family’s pack of five dogs, and I also care for my neighbors’ Mastiff, Golden Retriever, and their four playful cats, including a majestic Maine Coon. Sometimes, I watch their pets for longer, extended periods while they’re traveling. The dogs love hanging out at my house, where they can play in the big backyard or lounge on the couch with my toddler. The cats prefer to stay home, and I always enjoy visiting them, playing, and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well-fed. Being a stay-at-home mom gives me the flexibility to care for your pet with the love and attention they deserve. My toddler and I are a great team, and we've got a fun, reliable routine that includes plenty of playtime and cuddles. I can't wait to meet your pet and treat them like part of the family. When pets are in my care, I focus on creating a comfortable, safe, and enriching environment that fits their needs. In my home: For dogs, I make sure they get plenty of playtime in our big backyard, whether it’s a game of fetch, running around, or simply enjoying some outdoor time. If your dog prefers indoor relaxation, they’re welcome to hang out with my toddler on the couch or snuggle up. I can also take them for individual walks to give them some fresh air and exercise. For cats, I provide cozy spots, cat condos, and plenty of toys to keep them entertained. I love using catnip or interactive toys to engage them, and I make sure they have a quiet, comfortable space to relax in if they need some downtime. In your home: If your pet is more comfortable in their own space, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and provide the care they’re used to—whether that’s feeding, administering medication, or simply hanging out with them for company. I’ll take extra care to keep them in a familiar environment so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. Whether it's in my home or yours, I always tailor my care to fit each pet’s personality and needs, ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and loved during their time with me! For cats, we have fun with cat condos, toys, and catnip to keep them entertained and relaxed. I make sure they have quiet spaces, plenty of enrichment, and, of course, lots of treats and affection (if they’re in the mood!). Whether your pets are romping in the yard, relaxing on the couch, or hanging out with my toddler, I do my best to create a warm, safe, and happy environment.

About: I have 10 years of experience pet-sitting dogs and cats of all ages, sizes and temperaments for family and friends. With my love and passion for both cats and dogs, I have developed the necessary skills to provide exceptional care for your pet. I have a dog and cat of my own who are my whole world! I know how important it is to leave your best friend in hands you can trust. What you can expect: - Photos - Frequent updates - Good communication - Loving your pet as my own🩷 Please let me know if your pet has any special care needs! I work a full time flexible hybrid position, however I’m available early mornings and evenings, as well as potentially midday (12-1pm) for drop-in visits or walks depending on your location. On the weekends I’m fully available! Kindness, respect, and safety are my top priorities. I specialize in dog walking and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to do a meet-up before booking overnight stays to help with comfortability if that’s best for your pet.

About: I've been pet sitting since I was in high school and have experience in cats and dogs. Although I love cats, I'm currently only looking for dog-walking gigs. Most recently, I've dog-sat a blind and energetic lab for six weeks. While it was a challenge, I loved getting to know the dog and learning his style. My days are free and so is my schedule. While I prefer walks on week day afternoons and weekends, I can also do week day mornings. Pet safety is of the utmost importance in my pet care. While on walks, I keep dogs on a leash to ensure they don't run into something unsafe and don't become lost. I also stay aware of my surroundings in case something unexpected happens.

About: I have been a dog owner for over 25 years. I have taken my dogs to obedience school when they were pups. My dogs are gentle and get along with other dogs. I do work day shift and preparing to retire. I would love to care for your dog in my home when you have a get away planned. I have a fenced back yard. One third of the yard is made into a dog kennel. There is access to the garage to get out of the weather. They have almost 1/8 to 1/4th of my garage. I would love for your fur baby to come stay at my home.

About: For more than 15 years I have been caring for my own pets and working as a house sitter and pet sitter for homes in my local area. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I have also cared for fish, chickens, goats, and cats. I love to learn your pets' personalities and find what kind of play, interaction, and exercise they like best. I know it can be sad and stressful for them when their owners are away. I like to provide your pets with the best company and attention, so they feel cared for while you're gone. My schedule is quite flexible. I have my own dessert-making business, so I make my own schedule. Just let me know what you need and I can be available both during the week and the weekends. I will take care of pets in your own home, so they can feel at ease in their usual environment. My husband and I do overnight stays together. He has been pet sitting with me for 6 years. Having two of us there means your pets gets double the attention! (Plus, he's the master of playing fetch!) Your pets will get all the walks, play, and nourishment they need!
