“Awesome sitter!! Only booked her for 1 visit daily but when she saw my cat had puked during her first visit, she came back unprompted to check on my cat again later that day.”


“Lavinia did an amazing job looking after my cat! She was very considerate with excellent communication and went above and beyond to try and make a very shy boy feel comfortable!”


“Paige was amazing! She was a quick responder to messages, communicative, detailed in her overviews of the drop ins, an extremely kind person, and did great/was accommodating with my cat! I would rebook in a heartbeat 😊”


“anna is such a lovely human and an incredible communicator. she stopped by to feed our cat & dog and made sure our dog went to the bathroom. she followed all of the instructions left and sent photos and updates during her time with our girls! so grateful to have a trustworthy person come to take care of our girls! will definitely book anna again in the future :)”


“Top notch, triple A, 5 star, academy award winning...okay not that last one. Becca is the absolute best. Highest marks for care, reliability, photos and narratives. Could not recommend more highly for housesitting, walking or check ins.”


“Emily did a great job with the drop in for my kitten. I book her last minute and she was able to book with me. Sent me pictures of the visit and even brought my mail inside for me :)”



“Rachel is the best! I was nervous to have someone walk my dog especially while I wasn’t there but Rachel kept me updated on how my dog was doing and was quick to answer any questions I had. Highly recommend!”


“Alyssa does a great job caring for my cats while I’m away! She’s super easy to communicate with! It’s nice to know my cats are being well taken care of while I’m gone!”


“Corrie did an amazing job taking care of our clingy little cat while we were out of the country for 2 weeks. She took the time to give her lots of attention and cuddles and sent us great updates daily. Our home and fur baby were well taken care of. Best Rover sitter we have had in a long time! Thank you for everything ❤️”


“Ronnie was fantastic with our pups! It was only a drop in, but he took notes when we did our meet & greet and asked all the right questions. Showed up on time and sent pics during his drop in. Will definitely be using Ronnie again!”


“Melissa took excellent care of our two cats! She had excellent communication during booking and while we were away. We are very thankful that she was available and would absolutely rebook in the future.”


“Emalee was awesome. Had to cancel the first sitting due to unavoidable circumstance. She was very accommodating for a future date. She made the scheduled drop in visits and I trusted her implicitly. Would definitely use her again.”


“Priya was fantastic with our pup—very conscientious of his needs, and willing to go above & beyond to make sure he, our home & our yard were well taken care of while we were gone. We’ll definitely be booking her again!”


“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We are so grateful to have found Morgan! She took care of our whole kitty crew with incredible attentiveness, warmth, and good humor. From the moment we connected, she was friendly, professional, and easy to communicate with — even asking thoughtful questions ahead of time to make sure they had all the details right. Throughout the week, we received daily updates, adorable photos, and sweet little stories about our cats’ personalities (even shy Chanchita came out of her shell!). She followed our very detailed instructions perfectly, including medication, litter box care, and keeping an eye out for mischievous Mr. Bingley’s adventures. When we accidentally left out a knife and panicked, they calmly reassured us it was already handled. She even took care of little extras like bringing in a Chewy delivery and making sure the finicky keypad didn’t slow them down. We came home to happy, well-fed, calm cats — who honestly seemed a little bummed their new best friends weren’t still around. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Morgan again. Highly recommend her if you’re looking for caring, reliable, and genuinely lovely people to care for your furry family!”


“Suzanne was a great communicator and reliable! I appreciated the pictures and videos and most importantly felt that my animals were being well taken care of! Would use again!”


About: From high-energy pups to more anxious or reserved dogs, I have the skills and experience to take care of all of your pups needs! I love every pet like they're my own, making sure they feel as safe and comfortable as possible. I'm a grad student with night classes coming up part-time this fall, meaning I have lots of time during the day to take care of your pet! When I care for pets in their own home, I cater to their needs - whether that's giving lots of attention, playtime, or snuggles. I'm always careful to respect household rules and keep everything clean and safe. I'll also keep you updated on a regular basis, and make sure to send lots of pictures while you're away!

“We really like Alicia! Alicia is very responsive and easy to work with. They sent us a report after the visit with a video of our kitties and took care of everything we requested. We’ve already booked Alicia for house sitting next!”


“This was our second time booking Cassidy, Charlie absolutely loves her. Charlie is normally a very nervous dog around people but he warmed right up to her the first time and the second time was no different. Cassidy is very attentive to what Charlie is doing and her communication is great!! We will definitely book her again!!”
