“Kristie did great with our animals! She cares for the animals like they are her own. She communicates so well and made sure that our dog who has high anxiety was comfortable throughout her drop in visits!”
“Karen has been an amazing sitter. My dog, Mia, does not usually get acclimated to new people in a short period of time. Karen has been able to gain her trust. I really do not enjoy leaving Mia, but my mind is at ease now that I know Karen is keeping an eye on her.”
“Excellent sitter! Came at last minute notice for us, as our original plan failed. She let us know of all issues and any she thought might be a problem, our cats really enjoyed her presence as well! And they have a sense of people, human and cat approved!”
“Ray was an incredible help while I was on vacation. She went out of her way to find out what my cat Yoda liked doing for fun and spent time playing with him every day. She also sent me a ton of adorable pictures and videos of Yoda. It was very clear that Yoda felt very comfortable with her. I will definitely continue using her for my petsitting needs!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. I treat every pet like family and understand that each one has their own personality, routine, and comfort needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved — whether it’s a long walk, cuddle time, playtime, or simply keeping their routine consistent while you’re away. My current routine gives me the flexibility and availability to provide dependable, attentive care for pets throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, which makes dog walking and pet care a natural fit for me. I’m able to dedicate quality time to each pet, maintain consistent schedules, and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of affection, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention so they feel comfortable and secure. I keep a clean, safe environment, pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. Communication with owners is also important to me, so I provide updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Gretchen was wonderful! Our first time hiring a pet sitter and she made us feel much more at ease about it. She showed up, did everything asked of her for our 2 dogs, 2 cats, & 2 aquariums. I felt she was very capable of administering insulin to our newly diabetic kitty. Kept in daily contact providing updates and many pictures which is always reassuring. Even sent photos of our chickens which we did not hire her to provide care for. <3 Looking forward to having her come help with our fur babies in the future.”
About: I have been a dog sitter for my aunt who has had up to 3 dogs at one time. I am really good with animals and love spending time and playing with them. I own 3 dogs and 1 cat who I love with all my heart. I also have helped raise a puppy and own a dog over 12 years old I do not have another job. I typically bowl on Thursday and Sundays at 6:30 and also play soccer Sundays at 4. Other than that unless plans come up I am free At my home I have a fenced in yard. I also love playing with animals and using that as a way to keep them calm and collected inside the home.
“Allie provides excellent care and attention to our cat during her visits. She provides expert documentation via the report cards, which gives me much peace of mind. I book with Allie time after time for while we are away. I know my very particular (11 year old) Siamese is in expert hands.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 11 years old. I am comfortable with bigger dogs, overactive dogs, stubborn dogs, & more. Let me meet your pet and we can go from there! I can walk dogs most Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I work a 9-5 but can head out for my lunch break on Fridays and walk your pup. I am all about positive reinforcement and using a firm but gentle tone. I would love to learn what training if any your dog has so I can keep up those good habits!
“She made three visits a day to our house for our dog and cat. They loved her, and she did everything perfectly including giving our dog plenty of walks and giving her her medicine. We will definitely be asking her to come watch our pets again in the future!”
About: I have worked 2 week long dog sitting jobs before. I have owned pets my whole life, so I am comfortable with the process of taking care of them. I am an electrical engineering student home from college trying to pay off my loans. I am free all summer so please give me work!! I am friendly and have a lot of time to match any request your pet needs. From difficult animals to sweet ones I can watch them.
“Miah is fantastic! We can trust our pets are well taken care of. She is reliable and responsive and we can recommend her for a drop by or overnight sit. She will be our go-to sitter when we need to be gone.”
Alpha pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kristie cared for our Great Dane while we were away for the week and exceeded every expectation we had. She was always on time, sent us pictures everyday, & followed our specific care guidelines. Most importantly, our pup loved her. We are so happy we found Kristie!
