“I’m so so happy I booked with Luba! This was my first time hiring a pet sitter instead of having a friend sit for me and I was so relieved by Luba’s wonderful care and communication. She was so patient with giving medication to my spicier cat, kept up on all the tasks I gave her with ease, and was great at sending notes and pictures during each check-in. Her friendly nature and empathy towards animals really put my mind at ease about trusting a stranger in my home and with my pets. I would absolutely book her again!”
“Ariana was very kind and considerate while watching my cat Vi. She even went above and beyond by bringing in some packages that were delivered and also following some additional asks I had for Vi since she struggles to clean herself. I would highly recommend her!”
“Arielle was absolutely great! Our dogs bonded with her immediately. She provided pictures for us and had great communication. She is very attentive and you can tell that she genuinely cares about the wellbeing of your dogs. I would recommend her services to anyone seeking. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
About: I've taken care of many different pets over the years. Not only paid but voluntary. I love animals and I also have a dog of my own. He's loving. I have a nice backyard that's fenced in that's perfect for your dog to play. I have a pet of my own. Your pet will not inconvenient me in any way. In fact they will fit right in to our home. I will make sure your pet is fed, clean if necessary, used the bathroom and even have playtime to insure your pet that he/she is safe and can enjoy themselves.
“Neveah was very sweet and patient with my antisocial dog Kylo. She was very reliable, and responsible we didn't worry at all while we were gone. They even managed to become friends. I would definitely recommend her and use her again in the future.”
About: I have lived with cats for the last 12 years. I’m the oddball in my family who prefers cats, but I also enjoy my mom and my sister’s pet dogs. I am a huge believer in animal therapy and enjoy hanging out with other life forms I work remotely and have a pretty free control of my schedule. I can sit most weekdays or weekends. There are a few select weeks I’ll be traveling and not available, but in general I’m pretty free and flexible; whenever, wherever! Cats have ample access to cozy blankets and couches in my house. I provide cats with wet and dry food usually and have lots of treats and toys like a mouse on a string of a wand and a little tunnel with holes. For dogs, I like to go on 2 mile walks on the path that goes to the beach near my house, give them lots of play times and good boy/good girls, and they have a doggy bed to sleep in. I’m also very good with any animal that has special needs like medicine.
About: My upbringing on a farm sets me apart from other sitters. Not only adding experience tending animals to my resume, but instilling an incredible work ethic, integrity, and accountability. Since leaving the farm I have always lived with dogs, I've owned my own, I can tend to large animals like horses and cows. I have been a nanny for four families and started a side business of house/pet sitting through college. The biggest thing that sets me apart from the others is that I didn't have to use chat GPT to write this... I am lighthearted, happy, and nurturing and trustworthy. I work as a server, my longest shift is 8 hours and that is two days out of the week. The other shifts are shorter than that. I am a competitive boxer so I run and do bodyweight workouts which allow me to stay home and exercise, taking a dog for a jog, and allowing them to be with me outside is ideal. If you have a senior dog that just wants love, that works for me also because I hate running and am always looking for an excuse not to. I care for your pets exactly how you instruct me to, each dog requires individualized care and that's what I provide. I usually have my client, or I'll write it myself, leave as detailed instruction as they require for their pet(s). I keep everything on a routine and checkmark each task. Dog's aren't a one size fit all and I don't treat them in such a way, they get individual attention, care, and love from me.

I take my children to the park once a day and it would be possible to take a pet with us. We live in a small apartment and can host visits with pets. We keep a clean, efficient, safe home. There are no carpets. We can bathe and groom small pet. We enjoy taking walks, cuddling, playing, and feeding them.
About: My family has had dogs as long as I can remember from labradors, German Sheppard, golden retrievers, yorkies and mutts, and I love taking them for walks, playing fetch, and giving ear scratches. Beyond dogs, I am also comfortable caring for cats as well as turtles, lizards, birds and fish. I currently work part time five days a week with hours that are early to mid morning (3-9am). My schedule is fairly open and i am l available during weekdays/nights, and, always willing to help! It is always important to make sure that doors are secured and to be fully aware of where the pets are— ideally, on a leash! Accidents can happen in a moment so I always take safety seriously.

“Carrie has been an absolute life saver! I recently adopted a 6 month old puppy and was looking for someone that could work with my work schedule since I work long hours at night. Carrie always replies quickly, works perfectly with my schedule and any sudden changes, and she treats Don Julio so well and is always keeping me updated with pictures and what they get up to. This was my first time using rover and Carrie has made it so easy and not stressful at all. I will continue to book her in the future”
“Vanessa is the absolute best. I had a senior dog that I’d had for 13 years plus a new puppy that I adopted at the beginning of the summer. When I had to go back to work (teacher), I needed someone who could check in on the dogs during the day, and booked with Vanessa. The puppy needed to get used to me not being home during the day, and just when she was starting to get used to it, my sweet senior dog passed away. My puppy, Winnie, was heartbroken. Vanessa has truly gone above and beyond to help my puppy through her grief and bring her joy back. Vanessa has been an absolute blessing, and I am so thankful for her. I highly recommend her!”
“Erin was wonderful! We had an emergency and needed to book a sitter on very short notice. Erin was able to come out the same day for a meet & greet and agreed to help with the dogs. She helped us tremendously and I am so grateful. We will definitely book her again! Thank you Erin for making sure our dogs were very well taken care of and it was one less thing we needed to worry about!!”
