“Alex was great with Sunny. Sunny is a very shy dog and can be anxious, but she did well with Alex. It was a one day booking and he sent a picture with Sunny. I was happy with his professional attitude and have already booked him for a 9 day booking.”
“Annie stayed at my home for 4 nights and days to watch my two small dogs. She also got my mail for me each day. I met her before I left and my dogs took to her immediately. She walked them every day and sent me brief texts and a few photos to let me know how they were doing. She even baked the dogs some homemade cookies when she left! She left me a detailed report card on each dog too. Only thing I would have preferred is for her to stay with the dogs all day every day. She did have to go to her job one of the days, and I didn't know about that until the night before I left on my trip. So she left the dogs alone for much of the first day (I wanted someone with them all day since one is still a puppy and not used to being alone). I would use Annie again and recommend her!”
“Tess was amazingly helpful with my dog, Boston!! He is a big dog with a lot of energy and I always worry that he might be a lot to handle for anyone coming over, and this was my first experience using Rover. Everything went seamlessly and I couldn’t recommend Tess enough!!”
“Lawrence took great care of our dog and house while we were away— would definitely recommend him! Our dog is often anxious around new people but she liked him pretty much immediately.”
“Ashley did an amazing job. Tons of photos and updates of our cat and puppy. She also cleaned our home(kitchen and floors) which was SUCH a treat to come home to after travel! She was amazing!”
“This is the second time Asia has watched our dog for an extended period of time! She did a great job taking care of our dog and keeping an eye on our house! She’s on time and detailed in her communication! Thanks Asia!”
“Julia was great! She sent pictures of our animals as an update and was a huge help when we needed someone pretty last minute to watch our house.”
“Niara is awesome. ! She offered us a meet and greet before we booked the stay and she showed up early and was very knowledgeable about dog temperament - one of our dogs Sky is a rescue and not good with all dogs. She sent us daily photos and videos of the pups and we felt very comfortable and confident that they were in good hands. It was very apparent that the pups and her had a great time together! Niara would definitely be our first choice for dog sitting for the next time we are out of town!”
“I was super hesitant to have a sitter in house for my pup because I was scared of my house being a wreck when I came back. Thankfully, this fear did not come true with Mary as a sitter. They were clean and kept my apartment how I left it… if not better. They sent me quite a few update pictures of my pup, and just regular updates in general. They also made sure my pup was okay with plenty of water in the time it was going to take me to get home after they left. Your pup will be in good hands with Mary!”
About: Hi all! I’m Jen. I teach preschool and kindergarten in the mornings, and in the afternoon/evenings I enjoy spending my time working with animals. I have many years of experience petsitting and housesitting, as well as doing drop-in visits for cats and walks for dogs. I currently have one cat of my own, but I’ve had dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and chinchillas in the past. Please reach out to me with any questions! I look forward to caring for your animals. I am available for overnight care in your home, as well as drop-in visits or walks in the afternoons and evenings. I do not offer boarding or care in my home at this time. I have years of experience working with clients in their homes through babysitting and petsitting. I will treat your pets wonderfully and your house with respect.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I can play with them, pick up after them, bathe them and make sure they’re happy and well fed. And I can take the dog on short or long walks and make sure they’re happy and safe. Also for house sitting I’ll make sure the house is clean and any messes the dog makes is cleaned up as well I’m a student at an online university, but I am taking a break from perusing my BS in forensic accounting. So I have plenty of time to watch your pets. I have two dogs that I take care of with my family. And they are well cared for and I play with them throughout the day and feed them when they need to be fed.
“It is super hard for those of us with elderly animals to find peace of mind when you have to leave your precious pet, they may have anxiety, medical issues, and certainly confusion over the temporary change. Add to that, the my dog hasn't had a non family member sitter in many years, and there was a decent amount of stress going into this sort trip. Catelyn was quite literally a saving grace for me. She gave me updates consistently, updating on food, potty times, and Nonnie's general behavior. But more than that - she absolutely gave me confidence that my sweet old lady was in the best of hands. I could not have asked for a more caring and compassionate sitter. It is clear that she loves dogs, and cares for all of those in her charge as her own. She even went above and beyond by cleaning up the doggie food containers, picking up poop in the backyard and changing out the sheets on the bed (just all star moves right there) It was wonderful knowing that I had someone so competent with my dog and my house. I will absolutely not hesitate to book her for my next out of town trip.”
About: I have worked with animals since I was in middle school. I enjoy being around animals and I want the best for them. I am certified and very good at what I do. I am currently working part time and also homeschooling my children so I will have ample time to care for your companion. I am available everyday after 3pm but sometimes I have morning's open as well. Communication is key with me so we can work something out so everyone is happy. I have learned fear free tactics that can help with introductions and getting comfortable. I can easily crate if needed and will calm down any stressful environment.
“So Diane is absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our elderly dog (Puddles) ended up having some medical issues while Diane was taking care of her, and Diane did an outstanding job taking care of our Puddles during this time. Puddles is doing fine and we truly appreciate Diane keeping Puddles. We highly recommend Diane taking care of your pets. She is someone you can trust! Thanks again.”

“Jen is a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter. She has watched my cats for me while I was away countless times and made sure they had everything they needed and more. She never missed a day to send photo updates of my fur babies! Would recommend”
Mason M.
“I can’t recommend Mason highly enough when it comes to dog care. From the very first meeting, it was clear that he genuinely loves animals and understands their needs. My dog, who’s usually shy around new people, warmed up to him almost immediately—a true testament to Mason’s calm and caring nature. Whether it’s regular walks, feeding, playtime, or just spending time keeping my pup company, Mason goes above and beyond. He’s reliable, communicative, and always treats my dog like his own. I never have to worry when my dog is in Mason’s care, and that peace of mind is priceless. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about dogs, Mason is the one!”
