I highly recommend Jackie! I received many pictures of my pups while I was away which was very reassuring for me. I will most definitely look for her again the next time I need someone. She also has a fenced in background which was perfect for a ton of play time.

Floki was well cared and extra happy to be with Christine. I would recomend her highly for your pup and I will be doing business again with her in the future.

Caitlin was so incredible to our girls. We got lots of great pictures and updates! She was great for both my super senior and my rocket dog who never wants to quit playing. They were picked up and dropped off which was such a blessing when our flights were at crazy times. Sue gave us the sweetest parting gift as well. Love Caitlin!!!

Sydney was able to help us out on short notice and everything went very smoothly. Our dog seemed very well cared for, communication was great and her home was very well suited for pet sitting.

Happy repeat stay! Roux was so excited to be back with Ashley’s family! She didn’t even want a goodbye hug she was so ready to play! I don’t want to say this publicly for fear of Ashley’s calendar filling up, but she’s our first choice when it comes to someone taking care of our pup.

Jon and Jessica were a wonderful choice for our Sammie when we were away. They offered a meet and greet which made the choice even easier, and was so nice to meet their kids too! They provided updates while we were away and Sammie was well taken care of (and tired too!). Would highly recommend them!

I had a fantastic experience with Amy & Greg! Communication was fantastic, drop off and pick up were seamless and most of all, they took great care of my Lola! Their pups at home are so sweet and it sounds like their whole family enjoyed having another furry friend to take care of. I would highly recommend and definitely will be using them again.

Hannah was great! She accepted watching our dog Nille on short notice cause our other dog sitter cancelled. She let us come for a meet and greet prior and sent us pictures and videos throughout Nille’s stay. Nille seemed to have a great time with Hannah and her family.

Kendra did a great job taking care of my dog. I would use her again if I was in the area. It was my first time using Rover so I was hoping for a good experience. I was a little discombobulated having packed late or a camping trip. Even though I forgot to leave my dog's dishes and supplement Kendra took it all into stride. With the missing supplement she contacted me and and made sure she understood how the medication my dog is on were given before I left my pup with her. Throughout the entire process she was communicative responding quickly to any questions I had. It was a good introduction to Rover.

We had a last minute need for our little pup to be watched over night and Amanda pulled through for us! She sent a picture of Skye just loving it up. When we picked her up she didn't even want to leave. It's so amazing to know that my baby is in great loving hands while we are away.

Mikayla helped me out when I was stranded in town for a funeral during a blizzard and my pre-arranged sitter canceled at the last minute. She sent me frequent photos and updates, and both pooches came back healthy and happy! Thank you so much for your help!

Renee was very communicative during our dog's stay and even wrote up a "report card" that we received when we picked up our pup! Our dog returned to us happy and was clearly taken care of during her time in Renee's home. I will recommend Renee to anyone needing pet care!

Jill and her family took great care of my dog. She was very accommodating with drop off and pick up. She sent me constant updates and pictures which was very nice and reassuring as I was away. She took the time to understand my dog’s personality and needs. My dog was very cheerful after the time spent at Jill’s and her family (including their cute dog). Would Definitely recommend!

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each dog or cat’s personality, routine, and specific needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I have experience working with both puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I focus on reinforcing basic training like potty routines, crate training, and positive behavior habits. For senior pets, I’m patient and attentive to mobility issues, medication schedules, and creating a calm, low-stress environment. I’m also highly reliable and communicative—I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, structured routines, or gentle, attentive care, I adapt to what works best for them. Above all, I aim to build trust—not just with pets, but with their owners too—so you can feel completely confident while you’re away. I am currently working full-time but with my scheduling I am able to build time around pets needs. Each day includes feeding, walks or playtime, and general check-ins to make sure they’re healthy and comfortable. I live in home with a fenced in yard. All animals are allowed in all rooms as well as furniture. I do have a crate if need be and two friendly doodles to keep your dog company with lots of toys to play with!

About: I have walked dogs and have had dogs and cats of my own throughout my life, animals ranging from a 100+ pound German Shepard to a small cat. I love them all. During quarentine my friend and I also had our own little dog walking business around or neighbor. We had around 10 frequent clients who we would walk on a weekly basis, so I have had experience with many different dogs. I am here for your animals and excited to meet them! I am going to be working full time this summer and will be working night shifts. I can play with your animals in the morning and mid afternoon. I can also check on them after work. Weekends I will be available every other weekend. I will be able to tend to animals very early in the morning and a little after noon. I am hoping to spend more time with a variety of animals this summer at reasonable costs! I have a decent sized yard with large hedges around it. My mom loves animals so she is happy whenever we dog watch our neighbors dog. I get along with almost all dogs and cats.

If you are looking for flexible and accommodating, this is it! They agreed to sit my 8 month old 80 lb unneutered puppy AND feed raw. Nice large fenced yard. I specifically wanted a home with older dogs and it was helpful for my puppy. They are quick to communicate, kept me updated, and very competent and experienced with dogs. My puppy was happy and tired when I picked him up.
