“If I could give Jamie 10 stars I would!! She is amazing with the pets and house. I don’t have to worry about a thing when she is helping us out. She’s caring, kind, professional and reliable. Can’t say enough about her!!”



“Our experience with Jamie was 10/10. It is very nerve wracking to allow someone to stay in your home for over 2 weeks and watch your pets, but we were instantly put at ease by her level of care. Jamie was very communicative, sent regular updates and coordinated vet visits when one of our pets became ill. When we came home the house was spotless and looked better than we had left it. I highly recommend Jamie to care for your pets.”


“Another great experience with Vanessa watching Evie! Evie always looks forward to her playtime pal and loves all the attention she gets when Vanessa comes over to play. Vanessa is so wonderful with Evie and didn't bat an eye when I told her we added 2 little kittens to our house. Her laid-back and calm nature is really comforting to our pets when we have to travel and I believe that this lowers their stress level when we're gone. Sometimes I actually think they are depressed when I get back and she has to leave!”


“I can not say enough great things about Libah. She made my trip so much better because I had no worries about leaving her with my boy Journey. She provided daily pictures and messages. Some days there were multiple communications. She was absoluty great. I would without a doubt, would without hesitation use her again. Trust me if you are looking for a sitter, she is the one you should go to!!”


“Claire was very communicative and was great with my boxer mix and mini poodle. She sent pictures like requested and could tell that the dogs enjoyed being around her.”


“Erika helped us out in a pinch when we needed to make travel arrangements last minute. She watched our two big dogs in our home for a weekend. One of our dogs needs special attention (medicine, lots of physical and cognitive exercise), and Erika did a fantastic job. Erika was professional, communicative, kind and caring, and attentive to our dogs' needs. I felt completely reassured that our dogs were being well cared for. When we returned home, our pups were tired and well behaved. I'm sure they miss her already. We'd work with Erika again in a heartbeat.”


“Having Sam as an in-home sitter for our 15-year-old special needs Cocker Spaniel and two active playful Cocker Spaniels was a blessing. Dolly, Carl and Millie are all rescue dogs with issues. Dolly is deaf, has blinding cataracts and chronic pain. Carl has itchy skin and Millie just wants to play all the time! To find a sitter with ability to give proper care, which included giving Dolly and Carl medications, was a must. With Sam's ability to understand their needs and carefully follow detailed instructions was tremendous! Sam welcomed the challenge with no hesitation. We are planning to have her to take care of our threesome again soon. Thanks Sam!”


“Having Bailey housesit for us was such a gift. Her communication was great, she helped problem solve kitty situations while we were away, and I knew our kittos were in good caring hands. We came home after being away for just over a week to a tidy home and happy kitties. I wouldn’t hesitate asking her to help us again.”



“Alex went above and beyond! Desi was immediately charmed. Alex also took her to the dog park, and communicated throughout the entire time. Will def be my first contact the next time i need a sitter. Thanks a million”


“Abby was amazing with my puppy Sofie. Sofie loved her instantly upon meeting her. I was a bit worried due to my pup not handling me being away well, but I was pleasantly surprised when I received pictures and videos that Sofie is a very happy cuddly puppy, just being her natural self! I’d highly recommend Abby as a pet sitter !!”


About: I've been pet-sitting since I was 10 years old. I grew up around dogs and farm animals, and have always loved taking care of them. I'm familiar with all type of breeds and energy levels. I am a voice teacher and singer, so my schedule is very flexible. I can work around almost anything and will be able to give consistent care if needed. Each animal is unique, and I pride myself on being able to adapt easily to new routines so that your fur baby can continue their day with little to no upsets.

“Erin's stay with our girls was above our expectations. Why? It was the little things! She asked very good questions and offered a meet and great. She communicated throughout the stay, sharing a summary of their day along with pictures. She made sure to keep their schedule and the entire time playied and engaged with them. She treated our home as if it was her own. Laundry and dishes were done when we arrived. Thank you! We highly recommend Erin!”



“I lucked out finding Kim at the last minute. She was able to take care of the dog with a two day notice which was amazing. She kept me updated throughout the stay and even left me a note at the end that wrapped everything up so that I didn’t have any questions about how it went. I would most certainly recommend her but also book her again myself. I’ll already Recommended her to neighbors and friends.”


“Sophia did a great job for us. She sent multiple pictures every day, our dog bonded with her quickly and she left the house clean. It was the first time we used Rover and it was an excellent experience.”


“Ian was a fantastic sitter! I had him stay at my house since my puppy had just gotten spayed and wasn’t used to being alone — he did a tremendous job! He was communicative, respectful and followed all the instructions closely. He was also flexible with pick up and drop off since it changed a couple of times and my pup immediately liked him ? I will definitely use him in the future and will tell all my local friends about him as well!”


About: My name is Shelley. I have 20+ years Pet experience. I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant and technician for several years. I have experience with bathing and brushing. I have Pet set for friends, family, and coworkers. I have boarding experience from Vet offices. I decided to start my own pet sitting business for numerous reasons. One, to limit stress on pets. Two, reduce the inconvenience of the Pet owner. Three, Pet less likely to get parasites, kennel, cough, and fleas. I have experience with elder pets/disabled/puppies. I can administer medication. I have my pet CPR/first aid certification. I am insured and bonded as well. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish, and bunnies. You can relax while you’re gone. All cuddles are free! I am willing to do a meet and greet at no charge. Overnight hours 8pm-6am (Neg. On times). Do daily check in and walking. I’ve started my own pet sitting business. My focus is your pet. I’m currently doing overnight home stays in the comfort of their home for less stress for your baby/babies. I can check on them and let them out to potty. I care for your baby/babies in the comfort of their home. We can play, swim, walk or just cuddle & relax. If they are on medication, I can administer medication. I can do daily drop ins on them in the middle of the day to let them go out and potty or have some lunch. If they want to swim and no pool we can take a trip to my pool.

“Brooke is amazing!! She sent pictures of our pets while we were away and they all love her. I’m always nervous finding someone to watch our 2 dogs and cat because they’re family to us, but Brooke really did a great job with them. We’ll be booking with her again!”


“Michaela took great care of my babies while I was away for the weekend! I had to tell her the day she was arriving that one of my dogs needed meds as a result of an appt that morning and she happily administered her meds! She sent photos and updates and I never worried about their care while I was away. I’ll definitely be using Michaela for future services.”


About: I’ve always loved animals since I was a kid and got my first dog when I was 10. They lived a long and healthy 18 years of life. When they were 15, we got them some company with a puppy! Although their energy was opposite, they got along swelling well. Loving to get back in touch with the fur family so I’ve been caring for family and friends pets more often. I’m an actor so I always know how to entertain them as well as being able to read them pretty well. I have some experience with administering medication as well. I’m currently a grad student on summer break so I have plenty of time currently for all my fur babies needs! Once school begins in September I’m positive so early morning as well as evening care is more than possible. I do not offer care at my own home, but am an extremely neat, tidy, and minimal person. Any past clients I’ve had to do overnight stays with can attest to that.
