“Hadley was amazing, came to a first introduction with great enthusiasm. Our pets loved her, proof from the pics sent from every check-in. If Hadley is available she is our first choice!”


“Evelyn was great! She communicated with me the entire time I was on vacation with pictures and activities! She was so good with my boy!! Definitely using her again!!!”


“I had a last minute request and Megan rose to the occasion beautifully. I was able to enjoy my time away knowing my fur children were being looked after. I really appreciated the photos of my cats that she sent. I will definitely use her again all schedules permitting.”


“Emilee gave us so much peace and mind when we left for the weekend, we loved all the updates and our Winnie was so relaxed when we got home. We could really tell she had been able to get enough enrichment and attention while we were gone.”


About: I have 3+ years of professional pet care experience and currently work at an animal rescue! I have training in administering medication, bathing, nail trims, and teeth cleaning. I adore all pets and have personally owned dogs, fish, snakes, lizards, frogs, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, rabbits, and ducks! I have also taken care of cats, parrots/parakeets, and sheep. I am available 7 out of 7 days of the week! I get how chaotic life can be! That’s why my scheduling times are flexible to meet your and your pets needs. Safety is the top priority! My services and activities will be customized to the outdoor conditions (too hot or too cold = shorter walks outside and more indoor play time). As a pet parent, my house stays pet proof: no loose wires, batteries, sharp objects, etc. I have a 6ft privacy fence and use no chemicals in the yard. I am certified in animal first aid and CPR.

“Jamie was very attentive and flexible to our needs. We reached out to her last minute to care for our pets due to a flight cancellation. She responded almost immediately and gave us such a peace of mind while we were traveling that our fur babies were taken care of. Would recommend!”


About: I have had pets for as long as I can remember. We had pets of all kinds growing up. I have a dog (border collie + blue heeler mix) and a cat (Maine coon). I have been pet sitting for four years and have experience with complex diets, nervous and excited animals, and administering medications orally and through injections. I pet sit in my free time. I usually have to ask off work to take care of animals, so two weeks notice is best. My schedule will be more open in August. I always double check locks on all doors to ensure safety for the animals and belongings in the house. I always clean messes made by animals while I am there.

About: I have cared for dogs, puppies, cats, kittens and other pets and farm animals in homes and in shelter environments for the past 3 decades. I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule and I am available for last minute let outs and pet sitting or dog walking. I do not care for pets in my own home, but can provide safe exercise and care of animals in their home environment or walks in the neighborhood.

“Madilyn is the best! Thank you so much for accommodating, understanding, and very caring of my lil punk! Sam would definitely love to have you again for future house sitting visits!”


About: We have had dogs for over 30 years. So we thought why not help out the others!! We love to have the extra feet around. I work from home so I do not venture too far for too long. So lots of attention while mom and dad are gone on a break. I have a fenced in yard with lots of room to play. I can crate or cuddle depending on the dogs needs. Will be happy to give meds if needed.

About: I have been working at board and train facilities for the past 4 years. I have handled dogs throughout my entire life, from senior sick dogs to helping potty train a puppy I can do it all! I am currently only working for pet sitting. I no longer enjoy the boarding environment which means that 100% of my time will be dedicated to your babies. I will not leave your house and your dog unattended! I'll make sure every single accommodation is met for the pet that I am working with. They get maximum comfort and love when they are with me 🥰

About: I would love to spoil your pet rotten while you're away to work or on vacation! I am able to give your pet lots of potty breaks and plenty of play sessions. I also have a very flexible schedule and can walk dogs some days and most evenings. I have 6 years experience fostering dogs for a no kill rescue where I also would dog sit for my fosters after they were adopted out. I can administer medications if need be and have plenty of experience with different breeds sizes and ages of dogs. Im here for all your pet needs. We can play with toys, fetch, or just chill out and be couch taters, whatever they are in to! Would love to get to know your pet and spoil them so much they won’t even have time to miss their parent. Caring for your pet is my number one priority. I will keep them on their same schedule and routine easily as this is my only job other than caring for my kiddos. I’m am very big on safety and will do anything and everything I can to make your pet comfortable in our home. I can also keep pets separated or crated if needed.

About: I have had a dog in my life since age 2. I know what it takes, and will take amazing care of your four legged friend! Walks, playing, and bonding. I am free every day, for the whole day. Besides the daily errands, I will be able to provide all day sitting for your pet, and multiple walks and potty breaks. Overnight stays are welcomed! I live in a house, near a neighborhood, good for walking. Back yard is big and 3/4 fenced in. So your pet can have plenty of room to run around and play. If your dog needs to be leashed outside I’ll make sure I abide by that. I like to provide the owner with daily pictures and or text for updates of your dog. 🐾 I work for myself, and can make my own schedule. I’m very flexible on dates and time, so what ever works best for the owner/pet. Fenced in 3/4 back yard. pretty big. House is cozy. If your dog is crate training and or uses crate I have room for that.

About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 12 and have spent the past year at a professional pet boarding facility, where I care for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and attention, I’ve gained hands-on experience with a wide range of needs. I’m confident in daily routines like feedings, walks, cleaning, playtime, and helping dogs feel calm and comfortable while you’re away. I truly love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for like family. I work part-time during the week, so I’m available for pet care anytime after 1 PM on weekdays.

Whether it’s regular visits, walks, playtime, or last-minute care, I’m here to fit your schedule and make sure your furry friend feels happy, safe, and loved. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, so I’m committed to being reliable and attentive every time we meet. I prefer caring for pets at their own home because it’s a familiar, comfortable environment for them, and my home can be a bit busy at times. However, I’m happy to make arrangements to care for pets at my home if needed. My home has a securely fenced yard, so dogs can play and explore safely. Whether at your place or mine, your pet will receive the same loving, attentive care, with plenty of supervision, playtime, and comfort to keep them happy and safe.

As a military veteran, you can count on me to be dependable, responsible, and fully committed to your pet’s safety and happiness. I treat every dog like they’re my own that’s what makes me a reliable and loving caretaker. I’d love to meet you and your fur babies, so feel free to reach out with any questions!

“There are very few people that I would wholeheartedly trust to care for my dogs (one of which has some pretty extreme behavioral issues), and Abby is one of those people.

“I’ve known Raechel for 6 years and she has always been a huge animal lover. She has always fostered for dog rescues and has always been great. She has worked miracles with many of the fosters and found each one a forever home. She is great with all breeds and sizes of dogs and treats each one like it’s her own. She would make an excellent addition to the Rover family.”

“Austin was simply amazing! He consistently sent updates, was easy to stay in contact with, even went the extra mile by having treats for my little fur baby. Aside from his professional knowledge on handling pets he is very passionate and personable as well. From the moment my dog saw him it was apparent that he had an unwavering love towards dogs. I came home to a happy and content pupper! I know he's definitely looking forward to hanging with Austin again!”
