I came in from out of town to visit my parents and needed someone to watch my three pups at an Airbnb—and Claire was everything we could have needed and more. She was communicative, kind, and clearly experienced. The dogs took to her immediately, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!

About: I've pet/house sat for multiple people in the past. Animals include dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. I like to have a meet and greet before ever staying with your pets alone. If you have any special diets or quirks make sure we discuss them in advance! I don't mind staying for a few hours to watch your animals or just drop in, whatever is needed! I have a nighttime job so, your animals will need to be able to be alone at night a few days of the week! I will discuss meal plan, how often you walk them/let them outside, and if they have meds with you prior to caring for your animals.

Sam went above and beyond for Hazel, my high-anxiety dog. I received so many great pics and check-ins and knew she was well-cared for, and tired when I got back. I can't recommend her enough!

Jen house sat for a long weekend and she was great. I was nervous to leave our dog Barry but she came over for a meet and greet and he loved her immediately. She was very responsive and sent cute pics everyday. Barry seemed well cared for and Jen left our house in great shape. We will definitely call Jen again!

Allison recently stayed with Maisie again for 4 days. I say “again” because we are repeat customers of Allison’s. she is such a great dog/housesitter. I know I can travel without worrying about Maisie’s care and without the hassle of taking Maisie someplace else. And the condo is spotless when I return. Thank you Allison!

Yasmin took excellent care of my dog during a week-long trip and I would definitely book with her again! Ranger gets anxious sometimes, especially when his routine is disrupted, but he seemed happy and content in all of the picture/video updates (and I appreciated her sending those regularly). Thank you for keeping my best friend happy and healthy while we were gone, Yasmin!

About: Growing up, my family didn’t have pets, so I love my friends and family’s pets like they are my own! I am intentional and ask questions when learning from owners how to best interact with their pet(s). I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats, up to two of each at the same time. I prioritize playtime and being active with any pet I’m responsible for. I’m comfortable with both cats and dogs, and can adapt my skills and schedule based on their unique needs. My schedule is extremely flexible as I continue the job search post graduate school. I am able to support pet owners with short-term drop ins, frequent walks for high energy pets, and extended stays. I am available to care for pets in their own home. I aim to ease any stress by keeping their environment familiar and maintaining their usual schedule as much as possible.

Elliana did a great job with our 5 month old golden. She was very responsive and sent pics throughout her stay with him. I was so worried about how he’d do his first time away from us and was quickly at ease once I saw all the cuddle pics. Will definitely book with Elliana again!

We rebooked Sam to watch our senior frenchie Tiffany while we went out of town for a week. Sam was amazing! They reached out with any questions and sent lots of updates and pictures. We just got home and Tiffany is chill as a cucumber, no stress at all. Sam was wonderful giving Tiffany her meds (there are so many) on schedule and without any issue. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip because Sam was here taking the best care of our Tiffany. Sam is also very friendly and chats with us in the app and in person so this whole situation is even more comfortable because we have a super cool person dog sitting, someone we would want to hang out with and who is competent, funny, and so caring. I cannot recommend Sam enough!

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals-dogs, cats, and everything in between, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. From pet sitting for neighbors as a kid to loving on my own furry family members, animals have been a constant in my life. I know pets aren’t just pets, they’re family. That’s why I treat every dog or cat in my care with the same love, attention, and patience I give my own. As a stay at home mom with my kids in school full time, I have plenty of free time during the weekdays to dedicate to caring for pets. I’m home and available most mornings, afternoons, and early evenings, which makes scheduling walks, drop ins, or daytime care easy and flexible. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I only care for pets in their own home, where they’re most comfortable and everything smells familiar! I always follow your instructions closely- from feeding routines to favorite toys and I keep your pet’s safety and well being my top priority. I treat every home with respect and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and stress free while you’re away.

Nothing but AMAZING things to say about Mackenzie and Anthony who took the time to watch our sweet boy Tiger! We were new to the Rover app and had some anxiety, but Anthony provided updates with photos and videos throughout the entire day! We are so so thankful! Anthony went above and beyond!

About: Hello there! My name is Coty and I am here to help provide exercise, care, and happiness to your beloved fury ones! I grew up with at least one, if not two dogs in the home at all times. I currently have three dogs. Our oldest is an 11 year old Terrier-Chihuahua mix. His name is Oliver Walter, or Ollie for short. He is a rescue dog and is my absolute pride and joy; I simply cannot imagine my life without him! While he’s slowed down a bit, he’s still decently active. Our middle fur child is an 8 year old Cavapoo named Piper Jo or Piper for short. Shes seeet and sassy and loves her walks! Lastly, we have an almost two year old Bernadoodle, named Gus. Gus has completed our little family with his playfulness and love for his humans. He, too, loves his walks and any time outside! Dogs are such a huge part of my life and I truly wouldn’t have it any other way! I am available weekdays after 4:30 and available at any and all hours during the weekends! I am currently working full time but would love to walk your dog or dogs after 4:30 on the weekdays and anytime on the weekends! I treat others homes and animals with the same respect that I treat mine with. To a lot of us, our pets are our fur babies. I treat them with care, patience, and compassion.
