“Fantastic communication, with lots of pictures and updates Stephanie is undoubtedly an animal lover! Our pups were lucky to have her attention when she came to visit.”
“Sandy was amazing with our 3 girls! It was so nice to head out of town for a few days and know that everything was taken care of and that the girls were with a fellow pet person! Will definitely be contacting Sandy again & would love to have her back!”
“After an unexpected sudden death in the family, Kelsey promptly responded to my request and started taking care of my two dogs the very next day. She did a wonderful job and even went the extra mile with cleaning up after my pups which is not easy lol. I highly recommend Kelsey and will book her again. Thank you Kelsey!”
About: I have taken care of many different animals of all ages, sizes, and breeds for over 12 years. Over the years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, guinea pigs, chickens, and ducks. I adore all animals and love taking care of them in the comfort of their own homes. I am happy to administer medications, give the animals as much exercise as they need, and follow their feeding and sleep schedules. I work from home, so I am around to provide love, care, play, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day when needed. I have many consistent breaks from work throughout the day to hang out with the animals! I am very flexible in my care of pets and will adhere to your specific routines and needs for your pet(s). I am very affectionate toward animals especially if that is what they need to thrive in their environment while their parents are away! I also understand if certain animals require a more hands-off approach and like to just do their own thing while I am around. I take dogs on walks 2x a day (unless other needs are stated and agreed upon) and play with them throughout the day as I work from home. Creating a comfortable environment for your animals is super important to me!
“Whitney is wonderful! She took care of our dogs beautifully with a calm energy that really helped them know they were safe with her. We will happily hire Whitney again!”
“Shayla was very concerned about Gus and wasn’t afraid to ask questions about his care. Our dog is used to being able to roam at his will which concerned her. He has trouble warming up to people but by second day he was happy to hang with her. She stuck in there!”
“Julia did a great job keeping our dog while we were away on vacation. The only downside I saw was that our dog was less excited to see us when we got home because I think she missed Julia! Hope to get to use her again in the future.”
“Amazing experience with Vicki!! Her communication was great, she was patient & sweet with my 3 crazy dogs, and left our house cleaner than we left it. Thank you ? would definitely recommend!”
About: Our pets are family and deserve the best care possible. I am animal lover of all sorts! I’ve taken care of a variety of different breeds and sizes. Thank you for checking out my profile! I am currently a CNA and a caretaker during the week and free on weekends. I am available for drop in visits or overnight stays over the weekend. I am also available during the week but my schedule is a little unpredictable. Typically I will establish a schedule with the owners and the pets. I prefer the owner to leave a written list of introductions for the pets.
About: Took a break from Rover to move and travel but I’m back! Animal lover. Kindred spirit. Pack leader. Alpha female. I will love caring for, excercizing, spoiling and becoming fast friends with your pet. I follow your instructions completely and am extremely trustworthy and reliable. I have dog friendly transportation and experience with all types of breeds and personalities. I can be active with your dog, lazy, silly, sleepy hungry whatever. They might even look forward to you leaving :) I am passionate about animals and as an owner myself I know how hard it can be to leave our pets at home for extended lengths of time. The look on a dog's face when I show up to walk them is my favorite thing ever! I’m available during holidays so please contact me for your pets needs. I’m home full time to care for your pets . I can leave them sleeping on the couch if I need to step out, crated or they can tag along, whichever you prefer! I always keep pets leashed and close by. I follow all instructions 100 percent for the safety of your pet. I am as careful with your pet as I am with mine.
“Adaline was amazing! She took such wonderful care of my pups and turtle while I was gone for nearly three weeks. She was very communicative and I could tell she took great care of them. They are happy and healthy! She sends pictures and videos daily, which I love, and she took great care of the house. I will definitely use her services again!!”
“Naya was amazing with our 2 pugs! I was so nervous to leave them with anyone as we are not from the area and she always kept us updated and was super flexible and responsive. She took amazing care of our pups and treated them as her own. Cannot say enough great things and would absolutely use her again if we ever need a sitter in the area again!!”
“Mckensey is amazing and her dog Clementine is adorable. She took excellent care of my dogs and gave many updates. I felt that my dogs were very comfortable and well entertained with walks and attention. Also my apartment was probably cleaner than I left it. I would recommend Mckensey to anyone!”
“I highly recommend booking with Courtney! She was so accommodating while I was on a trip recently, and she truly went above and beyond what I expected during my time away! My girl was definitely in great hands, and I know she had a good time with Courtney. She looked very content and comfortable in all the photos I got. You can tell right away that Courtney is an animal lover, and she took such good care of my dog. It really put my mind at ease while I was away! Thanks so much, Courtney!”

“Mireille cared for our 3 cats and high maintenance dog for a week while we were on vacation! We asked her to stay at our house since we felt that would be best for the animals. Mireille is dreamy!!!! Not only were our animals very well looked after and happy upon our return, but our home was also in perfect condition as well! …..and she kindly brought in packages that were delivered in our absence. I honestly cannot say enough amazing things about Mireille…..she is kind, caring, responsible, smart and loves animals and life! I would 100% recommend her for pet and/or house sitting, awesome friendship and many other things! Ha!”
