“Katie was great with my dog while we were out of town. She gave us a detailed update on our dog with the pictures and was very responsive via text message. I will definitely ask Katie to take care of my dog next time!”


About: Hey, y'all! I had 3 dogs for about 8 years, walked and fed them daily, I have experience with almost all dog breeds from great danes to chihuahuas! I've also had bunnies, guinea pigs, flying squirrels, hamsters, and mice! I absolutely adore cats and have experience with animals of all ages ☺️ Sitting or playing with my cats has become part of my daily routine. I loved walking my dogs when I had them because I don't go outside enough. As long as I know where food, leashes, and pet supplies are, I can guarantee your pet's safety and comfort :) I look forward to meeting you!
“Gavin was great! We needed a last minute sitter for our big hound dog Beau who can be reactive to other dogs. Gavin was confident and experienced with handling Beau. I would highly recommend Gavin!”

“I can’t thank Baily enough for how great she was caring for my cat!! She was very kind, communicative and consistent. I highly recommend her to anyone that is in need of a sitter— she’s the best!!”

“Both during the initial visit and while she was taking care of them, Ashleigh was great with my dogs! My three husky mixes loved her! She took the time to go outside and engage with each one of them and cater to their individual personalities. She was extremely patient with their high energy needs and even took the time to send me several photos of them playing in the yard. Her exerperince of currently being in Vet school, and of previously working in a kennel and as a Vet Assistant really put me at ease in that if there were some type of an emergency, Ashleigh would be able to promptly and properly be able to handle it. I will defintely request Ashleigh's services again in the future!”

About: I have had and cared for a variety of pets throughout my life, including dogs, cats, reptiles, etc. I have a passion for animals and ensuring they live a great life! My fiance and I have a sweet cat named Poe who welcomes any visitors. I have experience caring for seniors dogs, puppies, and everything in between and have been trusted among friends, family members, and neighbors to care for their dogs deeply and ensure all needs are met. I currently work Monday-Thursday and I am available after hours through the week or any time Friday-Sunday. I can be flexible as far as coming to you or hosting your pet! I live in a safe, private apartment close to several parks and great outdoor areas. I will cater the needs and schedules specific to each dog or cat and ensure all their needs are met. I am happy to host your animal, come for a check in/walk, or anything in between to ensure your time away is stress-free when it comes to care for your pet.
“We love Kamy! She sent us great pictures everyday, and was consistent and reliable with our cats’ care. We were gone for 10 days, and I never felt stressed about the well-being of our pets. She took great care of them, and played with them during each visit. I’d recommend her, and am hoping to be able to work with her again for future bookings.”

“We highly recommend Gabi and will definitely ask her to look after our dog in the future. The daily updates, including walks and bathroom breaks, that we received were great! Pictures of our pet were sent to us each day too! 5 stars!!!!! Thanks Gabi!”
“Christa took great care of my cat while I was gone! She was very attentive, followed instructions, and made sure my cat was happy and comfortable while I was gone. I got very detailed updates and lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away!”

About: I have experience with loving and taking care off my family pets. Our current household is at 1 dog and 5 cats so I am no stranger to multitasking. I am able to handle dog walking, cleaning a litter box, and maintaining a consistent meal time schedule. All while making sure to get a healthy amount of play time in. I have a consistent schedule that i can pkan around that will allow me to be consistently available to rehular and new pets. And I will take full responsibility for any scheduling conflicts on my part that may affect care. I will have clear communication with the owner about what they want to keep consistent with there pets and how they want they want there house rules maintained.

About: Reliable and attentive professional dog sitter dedicated to providing safe, comfortable, and stress-free care for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. Experienced in daily routines including feeding, walking, administering medications, and maintaining consistent schedules to keep pets happy and healthy while their owners are away. Known for a calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail, I focus on building trust with both dogs and their owners. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra support, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I prioritize clear communication, regular updates, and a clean, secure environment so owners can have complete peace of mind. Passionate about animal wellbeing and committed to treating every dog as if they were my own. I have decided to make caring for pets my full time job. I am single and live alone with my 2 yr old female pupper. We have plenty of time to make your fur babies feel how special they actually are. I have a small fenced in yard. If it's nice out then I like to leave it open so they have free reign. My place is small so I'm always near. I will only accept pets that get along with other dogs. It starts with my dog, Kaiya. She gets along with all dogs so if a dog has a problem with her then they won't be invited for doggy day care. However, that does not mean I cannot pay a visit to your house for any needs. I can also crate any dog that is better suited for that environment. Safety for all pups under my watch is the number one priority.
“Paige was amazing!! I booked her the night before, and she took great care of my two doggies! Her communication is very much appreciated. I will be referring her to anyone in search of a sitter, and will be booking her again!”


About: Extensive experience caring for both puppies and kittens as well as older pets. These animals have ranged from hyper energetic to very relaxed. My main focus is always to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I am currently available at anytime during the week, which allows me to provide consistent attention, exercise, and care to any pets who need it. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention to keep them comfortable and stress free.

About: Growing up around dogs my whole life, I’m that girl who can handle even the wildest pups. From tiny terriers to big goofballs, I make walks fun and safe! My energy level sets me apart. I’m the walker who doesn’t just stroll, I turn every walk into an adventure with games, training tricks, and real playtime. Your dog won’t just get exercise, they’ll come home happy and tired! I just wrapped up a travel nursing contract, so my schedule’s wide open right now! I’m super flexible, available mornings, afternoons, and evenings most days of the week. Whether you need daily walks or last-minute help, I’m your girl! I’m fully background-checked through Rover, insured, and always treat homes with complete respect! You can trust me to keep your space and your dog safe while I’m around!
“I've rebooked Amanda a few times now and she's always very caring and flexible. When my power went out she adjusted her check-in to much earlier the next day to make sure the auto feeders were still ok. Very responsive and respectful; will continue to rebook!”

“Lindsay took great care of our girls while we went out of town for the weekend. She provided great care to them and we were very happy with her services. Will definitely use her services again”
“Dakota was amazing! I'm new in town & didn't know my dog couldn't be in my apartment while the movers unpacked my furniture. Unable to to leave work, Dakota was kind enough to accept my last minute booking. She was communicative & sent pictures & updates throughout her stay with my pup. She was great with Ka'Lani & I'll be booking with her again :)”

I would highly recommend Stephen to anyone looking for a pet sitter. He went above and beyond handling all my requests and providing tips on toys to help me tire out my rambunctious kittens. He also included pics of them playing which brightened up my day while I was away.
