We are so happy we went with Rover, but even happier we found Olivia. Thank you for taking such great care of our fur babies!”
About: I've had dogs and cats most of my adult life and love being surrounded by animals. I currently have one mini dachshund and a cat but wish I had triple the pets. I work from home and am free mornings and weekends for pet parents needs. I am willing to work with a flexible schedule if needed. I have watched my friends' pets and actually prefer to have them stay at home if at all possible so that the furry friends are most comfortable and feel safe.
About: I'm very good walking stop-and sniff dogs, and dogs that tend to pull a lot. I can usually get a dog's best behavior out of them. I love studying dog breed histories, learning about what they were originally bred for, and using those breed traits to make up games/tricks. Dogs love having work to do, and the happiest dogs have jobs that play to the strengths of their breed. Pet care is paramount. I can work my schedule and routine around the needs of any dogs in my care I've never had a problem with any dog entrusted to me, whether a twenty minute walk or a 5 day boarding. I have a fenced yard but I don't leave dogs unattended there. I also have a small Schnauzer mix rescue who likes having other dogs around but generally keeps to himself.
“Briasia was great! She helped us during a last minute sitter cancellation and was able to step in and help out on short notice. She took good care of both of our fur babes and kept us posted on how they were doing daily with pics and messages. She even helped care for my senior dog who needs a little extra TLC. Great 1st time Rover experience with Briasia! Will definitely yield use her again.”
“We were very pleased with Liz’s care of our special needs pup. She is an excellent communicator. Didn’t hesitate to text questions about our pup. Daily communications and photos - which she knew we lived.”
“Eva is the best! She followed our instructions exactly, took very good care of our anxious dog, and sent us daily photos so we knew he was relaxed and happy. She was very responsible in communicating with us about any questions and concerns. We absolutely love her.”
About: Hi, I’m an active pet foster, who has taken care of 1 week old kittens, large dogs, and all ages of cats, even medical cases. I grew up with 5 puppies, and know my way around medium-large dogs. I’m new to pet sitting, but have lots of personal experience combined with experience gained from fostering. Hi, I currently have a work from home job, that deems me VERY flexible work hours, meaning I’ll be free basically at all times of the day:) I currently am a cat dad to two cats of my own. I also foster for the Purrfect Friends organization. My house is usually pretty calm, and clean, with my two resident cats residing upstairs and the fosters roaming the basement. I have a spare room that is perfect for cat boarding. All of my pets are up to date on vaccines. As for client visits, In the past I’ve always done wellness visits. Usually coming once or twice a day, topping off food, and giving some socializing and play time. Or really anything else requested by the client. Followed up by daily photos, because I know I would love to receive photos!

“Christopher has been raised around pets his whole life. We have had dogs, both large and small, cats, and a rabbit. He is very compassionate and caring with all types animals. His dog loves going for walks and Christopher enjoys obedience training him and teaching him tricks. He has recently over the course of the last couple years began fostering both dogs and cats. With his fosters he provides them with a cozy home full of love while they are awaiting adoption. He had a full litter of kittens that he cared for with his girlfriend until they were old enough to be adopted. I would recommend Christopher for any pet care needs.”
