Hannah watched our two dogs for the weekend and she was great! She was easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures while we were away. Our dogs loved her! We will definitely be using Hannah again in the future.

Liz was fabulous. I have 5 pets, 3 main Coon cats and 2 yellow labs. They are a handful and Liz was awesome. When I came home from my trip. Our Pet Pod was very happy and chill. Unusual for having a stranger in the house. Liz when above and beyond! I will hire her again and again if she is available

Kelly was awesome. From our initial meet and greet to her pupsitting at our home for a few days, the process couldn’t have been any better. Communication was 100%. From the fun photos Kelly sent daily, we could tell our pups were so happy. We have 3 pups and 2 have special needs and she nailed it! We felt totally comfortable and will use Kelly’s service again.

About: What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine exactly, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or cuddle time. I’m attentive to their needs, quick to notice changes in behavior, and always focused on keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable. I currently have a daytime weekday schedule through mid-June, so during the school year I’m typically available after 4:30 PM on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. Starting in the summer, I’ll have much more flexibility with increased weekday and weekend availability. I’m also happy to communicate and work with pet owners to accommodate schedules whenever possible. While caring for your pets, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, from feeding and walk schedules to playtime routines and any special needs. I always keep their environment clean, provide fresh water, and give plenty of attention and affection. My goal is to make each pet feel at home, no matter where they are.

I was overwhelmed by how much my dogs enjoyed spending time with Brian ("Barry"). When I arrived home after a short trip, they were completely bonded to him and wouldn't leave his side. I loved the daily pictures of my two dogs. They were so well cared for and actually smiled for the photos. Barry kept in touch frequently to let me know that all was well. Shelby and Luke loved going out for walks with him. He kept my home safe and spotless, and my gang was in absolute heaven spending time by his side. I very much hope that I can have him stay again if ever needed. He is a gentle and highly responsible pet sitter!

I could not recommend Shauna more! She stayed at our home with our pup for over a week while we were on vacation and our house and dog could not have been in better hands. She sent wonderful updates/photos and cared for our place as if it were her own. Having someone so responsible while being away made our trip just that much more enjoyable. We can hardly wait to have her back and I know our furry friend agrees! Thank you, Shauna!

About: I've always loved dogs and cats and felt very passionate about them. I have two years animal shelter experience taking care of dogs and cats. This included feeding several different types of foods and diets to pets, ensuring pets' safety, cleaning cages and kennels, cleaning litter boxes, and taking out dogs into the yard. I am available most days and times every week to care for your pets. I offer mostly drop ins and I do have exceptions like I will be going on vacation this month so just message me within one day to request a booking. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I pay attention to dogs and cats body languages to ensure their safety needs and emotional needs are met. I let pets come to me first so that they can feel comfortable and safe around me. I treat every pet with respect and if they do not want to say hi yet, that is totally fine with me I will feed them and clean litterbox, etc and they will warm up to me eventually. I watch puppies and young dogs very carefully so that they do not get into trouble and I always make sure the floors are puppy/dog proofed.

Abhay was absolutely amazing. On first contact, his enthusiasm to meet and greet both us an our animals was encouraging. We knew from first meet that we could be confident and comfortable leaving our babies and our home in his care for two weeks. We were not wrong. Everything went as planned and our babies and our home were cared for perfectly according to our requests. We would, without question, request his services again and highly recommend to others.

About: I have experience working with dogs and cats through pet sitting and hospital experience. I have owned dogs for the past 16 years, chinchillas for the past 5 years, and hedgehogs for the past 7 years. I am able to detect symptoms and abnormalities that may require medical attention. I enjoy bringing my pets to a variety of places such as state parks, pet stores and public pet events. I am available most weekdays and weekends. I do not mind staying over for overnight care. My time is pretty flexible for now and I am able to drive to locations within an hour radius using my own car. I have a finished basement that would be used for the pets I care for. It has a bathroom with a hand held shower for easy bathing. I have a crate available for use for dogs under 30 pounds. The basement also has direct access to the back yard for easier potty times. The temperature in the basement is cool during the summer. In the winter the temperature would be adjusted using an electric fire place. Dogs would get enrichment through daily walks, puzzle toys and trick training. Cats would have access to the whole basement to free roam but will not have access to outdoors.

Our doggo Kailey has special needs - In particular, she takes quite a while to warm up to people and wants her own space. No touchy touchy! Because of this, it has been difficult to find care for her in the past. Enter Lynn. Lynn is wonderful. She took the time to talk with us, to understand what Kailey needs, and how we interact with her. She was warm and friendly, and instantly put us at ease. We felt 100% comfortable leaving her to watch over our doggo, with access to our home. Lynn was great at both following instruction and using her best judgement when interacting with Kailey. She provided care and companionship for our girl when we couldn't be there. We are so grateful for her help, and would highly recommend her to anyone else looking for compassionate care for their pets!

Lindsey watched our puppy Hank for 2 nights. He enjoyed every minute with her and was so excited when she can back for the 2nd night. She took him for walks, played with him and had him tired out when we got back home! We will definitely be using her again.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Animals love me and I love them. I don’t have any pets at this time and would love to help care for yours. I’m currently self employed and create my own schedule which is very flexible. I have plenty of free time to care for pets. No worries for frequent potty trips. My home has a fenced in yard so perfect for playtime. Lots of birds and squirrels parading around for amusement. Very comfortable and reliable to come to your home as well.

I only wish I could give Allegra six stars! Our dog Minka has always had an issue with boarding. She does not like the kennel and she gets very anxious boarding there. I’ve tried to find someone to board her with, but many people will not take shepherds because of insurance issues. I found Allegra on Rover and was impressed with her reviews. Minka does not do well when she first meets a new person and when Allegra came for an initial interview, Minka was not as friendly as she typically is with family and friends. Allegra was not phased in the least and said she was happy to come back and that she preferred working with big dogs. When Allegra came back to babysit for our four day trip once again, Minka greeted her with barking and suspicion. Again, Allegra was not phased in the least and by the time we got home from our short trip, Minka had been sleeping on the bed with Allegra and didn’t want her to leave. I was beginning to think Minka liked Allegra more than me! Allegra also left the house spotless! I was so relieved that Minka finally had a positive boarding experience that I already have already booked Allegra for two more trips. I would recommend Allegra highly and without reservation.

Rebecca and James were the best with Tolstoy! They were so kind, attentive, and thorough. I would recommend them to anyone. We were sent tons of pictures and videos with very detailed information about his day. He had the time of his life! They were very accomodating to his active lifestyle and loved on him a lot. I could tell he was well cared for and as happy as was possible with us away. They are just genuine dog people who will really understand your dog's personality and preferences.
