“Kailyn was awesome! She watched our pup and two cats for a couple days and honestly couldn’t have picked someone better. She gave updates and sent pictures/videos which were super helpful in easing my mind. Would definitely recommend Kailyn, she treated our pets as her own!”


“Madeline was great with our two dogs. She came for two meetings prior to watching them and asked great questions, took notes and was very attentive. We are very appreciative and the boys were happy!”



“Megan was wonderful! Took great care of house dog and house while we were gone. Didn’t worry at all while we were away. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Our babies had the best time with Makenna. She sends lots of pictures and will keep you updated if you want. We have a pup on medication that she administered that to. We will definitely use her again.”


“Lucas and Bo was Amazing with our furry babies!! Lucas is very compassionate and kind. He will keep you updated on how your furry babies are doing which I simply loved. Highly recommended. I even tried to get him to extend his stay! Lol. Thank you Lucas. Will definitely consider again.”


“Maddy stayed with our girl Bayoo. She took great care of Bayoo, taking her on walks, sending photos and giving her treats. The house was clean and Bayoo was happy. I will be using Maddy again.”


“Donna did great with our two dogs while we were out of town. She also did a few light housekeeping tasks for us upon request! We felt comfortable having her in our home while we were away.”

“Allison was amazing with my babies! She sent pics and kept me updated on everything while I was out of town. She even gained the trust of my 14 year old chihuahua in less than 24 hours! lol”


“Baylee is AMAZING! From start to finish and all the in between's, she is far more than i could have asked for. I have never boarded my babies and thought I'd give this Rover thing a try for in home sitting, so they could be comfortable in their own environment. I was at ease the entire trip away, she kept in contact and even sent us photos and little messages about our babies. I never worried once about having someone I didn't know in my home, that's how comfortable she made me feel and I hope she felt the same. My babies needed to be fed a special diet and meds daily and she was on top of everything. She even took the sheets off the bed, washed them and re-made the bed before leaving! I didn't ask her to do that, but it doesn't surprise me that she did. She has spoiled us, so if ever go anywhere else, there's nobody other than Baylee that I would ever call. BOOK her! You will not be sorry, she is precious! P.S. I think they miss her, because they've been pouting since we returned!”


About: I have taken care of multiple animals. I have experience in providing medication as well as dog walking. I’m excited to have the opportunity to love on your fur baby while you are away. I currently work Tuesday through Friday. I’m available for lunch time walks and evening care on these days. I am mostly available Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I live on 10 acres and have space for your fur babies to run around. I currently have 1 small dog and two cats that get along well with other animals. I have the ability to crate your babies as well. If I am in your home, I strive to make your fur baby feel comfortable and safe.

“Emily was absolutely incredible! Highly recommend booking with her. She sent me updates and photos which was wonderful. Everything went very smooth, she is very caring with animals and respectful of our home during her stay here. Thank you for watching our 2 dogs, we will keep you in mind for future stays!”


“Caitlin is terrific! The pups loved her and, despite them being a husky handful, she managed beautifully. It allowed us to have a stress-free vacation knowing our house and especially our babies were well cared for with love and attention. Thanks Caitlin!”


“Finding someone to care for our pets and home was genuinely was biggest concern prior to traveling. Gwen was a wonderful sitter and completely took my worries aways. Her attention to detail and flexibility calmed my demanding pets while we were away. I highly recommend Gwen to anyone looking for someone reliable that will ensure your fur babies are cared for, loved and safe. Thank you Gwen!”


About: I have had animals all of my life. I have been personally responsible for the care of my pets since I was seven years old. I was always raised to treat my pets like family, and I do the same with all animals I interact with. I regularly pet sit for my friends and family, and have been doing so since I was a teenager. I have experience with cats, dogs, lizards, snakes, birds, frogs, and most rodents. I am a stay at home wife and mother, so I have a lot of free time in my day. My children are young, so I cannot have animals in my home that don’t get along well with children. I have three friendly, well trained dogs to get along with each other greatly. They’ve gotten along with any other dogs that have been under my care. They are also great with my small children. My dogs get fed twice a day, they get walked on demand, and they are allowed to sleep where they please. When they were puppies, they did sleep in a crate in my room. But as they were trained, they were allowed to use the crate as they please. My dogs are very spoiled, they get plenty of treats, they have lots of toys, they have their own beds, and their own blankets.

About: I have experience caring for, dogs, cats, and reptiles like breaded dragons. including my own cat and dog at home. I’m gentle, patient, and love giving pets playtime, snuggles, and lots of love. I’m good with shy pets, puppies, and am able to give medication to pet if they need it. I always keep owners updated with photos and messages. I treat every pet like family! I am able to do morning and night checkups and sometime evening checkups. I am free all day Fridays and weekends so for those day I can do as many check up as needed! If the pet is stay at my house then I make sure to feed them regularly and have lot of potty breaks and playtime. I always make sure pets are safe and comfortable, when i am visiting their home. When caring for pets in a client's home, l follow all instructions carefully, keep things tidy, and give them lots of love and attention. I always update owners with messages and photos, so you can trust your pets are in good hands!

“Tanée was amazing! I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a more than reasonably priced house/pup sitter. Not only did she look after my fur baby with the love and care she’d give her own animals, she also looked after my home and even did some cleaning! I’m so impressed with her work ethic and the amount of effort and energy she put into keeping me updated on my puppy’s wellbeing. She really was such a blessing to find! I’m definitely booking again with her. She clearly loves doing what she does. Thank you Tanée!!”


About: Growing up, our home was a joyful (and sometimes chaotic!) zoo of dogs, cats, hamsters, turtles, and even the occasional rescue rabbit. My earliest memories are of curling up with our German Shepherd after school, sneaking bits of toast under the table, and learning—through muddy paws and tail wags—that animals aren’t just pets, they’re family. Over the years, I’ve been lucky to care for animals in every stage of life—from bottle-feeding newborn kittens to administering medication to sweet senior dogs with arthritis. I have a soft spot for rescues and shy animals who need a little extra time to trust. I’ve worked with high-energy breeds that thrive with structured walks and stimulation, as well as gentle couch potatoes who just want someone close by to snuggle. What truly sets me apart is my intuition and respect for each animal’s individuality. I don’t treat pet care like a checklist—I listen, observe, and adapt to what your pet needs. Is your dog a slow walker who likes to sniff every blade of grass? We’ll take our time. Do they need mental stimulation? Let’s puzzle it out together. Does your cat demand a very particular style of chin scratch? Challenge accepted. I’m also comfortable with basic training and reinforcing routines around crate time, leash etiquette, and mealtime manners. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels, because I know those subtle shifts matter. I’ve cared for pets with special diets, separation anxiety, allergies, and mobility issues—and I always treat these needs with the seriousness and compassion they deserve. To me, being a great pet sitter isn’t just about showing up on time—it’s about being fully present, fully invested, and truly loving what I do. I’m not just a caregiver—I’m your pet’s new best friend (and maybe their second-favorite human after you!). I work from home and make my own schedule so I build my days around your pets’ routines, not the other way around. I’m available for early morning walks, midday play breaks, or evening check-ins, and I pride myself on being reliable and responsive. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or your 9-to-5, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. Whether in your home or mine, I create a safe, loving, and peaceful environment. I follow your instructions closely, keep spaces tidy and pet-friendly, and maintain communication throughout. I never leave pets unsupervised in unsafe situations, and I pay close attention to details—from locked gates to feeding routines. I have a fully-fenced, large yard for playtime and potty breaks, and there is no off-limits furniture for furry family members. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure, seen, and cared for.

“Hannah was fantastic. She kept in contact the entire weekend, and made sure to send pictures and updates. She took wonderful care of Thor and I will definitely be using her again!!!”


About: With a lifelong passion for animals, I bring years of hands-on experience to pet sitting, starting from my teenage years working alongside my sisters in grooming and boarding facilities. I have cared for dogs of all sizes and a wide range of breeds, as well as cats. As a pet owner myself—a Great Pyrenees mix and two cats—I understand the importance of reliable, compassionate care. I currently work full time with a flexible schedule, including remote work for most of the week and full availability on weekends. Whether you need care for a dog or a cat, you can trust that your pet will be in attentive, loving hands. I currently work full time but, my job allows for me to set my own schedule and offers me the ability to work from home. Other than that, I have free weekends! I provide attentive, reliable in-home care for both dogs and cats, allowing your pets to remain comfortable and relaxed in their own environment while you’re away. With experience caring for animals of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—including those with special dietary needs—I tailor my visits to meet the unique routines of each pet. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or litter box maintenance, I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own.
