“Wow Marissa was such a great Pet Sitter for my 3 dogs. She is very calm and easy going. She walked all 3 of our dogs when weather permitted and was fine with our 2 Vizslas wanting to cuddle with her. My older dog has separation anxiety and did really well. Marissa is amazing. She will definitely be my No. 1 choice for a Pet Sitter in the future.”

About: I’ve been a care giver/sitter for people for over 10 years now off and on and am ready to branch out and help care for your fur baby! I’ve helped care for our family dog for over 7 years now, I’ve also helped care in more recent years off and on for my sister and brother-in-law’s dogs, as well as a couple of other friends’ dog. I’ve had pets off and on throughout my lifetime as well. My work schedule Monday - Friday allows me to care for your pet(s) early mornings before I go into work and I will be available to stop by again by mid evening to early night. Most Saturdays I am available morning to evening. I prefer to meet your fur baby before I begin working to care for them to build trust and a more comfortable environment for both your pet and me. As a pet sitter I will be glad to play with, feed, and walk your fur baby!
“Kathy did a fantastic job with our 3 pups. She was able to manage or senior dog and his meds along with our big, energetic 10 month old pup. Kathy arrived early and stayed with the dogs, as expected. She left our home in tip-top shape. We would definitely recommend Kathy to care for your pets!”

“Danielle is simply the best! She took amazing care of our dogs, Charlie and Macy. The initial meet and greet was a great way to start, and we loved the regular photo updates while we were away. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs and a spotless home. We highly recommend Danielle and will definitely be booking her again!”

“This was our initial time using Rover. We are very particular with our fur babies. Kristina was very welcoming and assuring. We had a meet and greet with just her and then with our girls. I left having every confidence in her ability. We were gone for a week and she sent daily photos and updates. She treated our girls like her own. We will definitively be using her services again, and I highly recommend her. Thank you so much!”

“Kat was so AMAZING! She even went back after her time was up when our flight got delayed to make sure our pups were cared for and exercised. I cannot say enough good things about her care, attentiveness, and communication. She is someone we will use again (and often).”

“Nika house sat for seversl days and was wonderful with my two dogs. She took very detailed notes during the meet and greet and made me feel very comfortable that she would take good care of them. She was respectful of my home, flexible and professional and helped me out with a minor home issue. I appreciate the walks she took with them while I was away and appreciate the care she provided. I will definitely call upon her again when I need care for my dogs.”

“Reba is great! Kept us in the loop with beautiful photos of our furry family, reached out when she had questions about everyone's routines, and took super care of everyone! We came back to relaxed and happy pets!”

“Destiny not only tells you how much she loves animals, she shows you. Extremely communicative and professional, punctual too, even when you tell her she doesn't have to be. I HIGHLY recommend her, and will be using her services for as long as she'll allow!”

About: My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I have been a dog sitter and have been boarding dogs for 3+ years. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "fur baby". I grew up with a household of furry friends! I currently work from home so I am able to dedicate quality time for the care of your pet. I am available Mon-Friday as well as weekends. I have an electric fence for my pup but when I pet sit, no pup goes out without supervision and on a leash. I allow pets to be comfortable in my home too but if you need them crated, I can accommodate that too.

“I was kind of in between a rock and a hard place.. I had to go out of town in a week, and didn’t want to leave my dog in a kennel again.. he has special needs and kennels have too many dogs to pay special attention to him so I tried Rover... My request for assistance was accepted right away. I was always able to reach the sitters and they sent me updates and statuses ... definitely recommend Cheyannes assistance if you need a sitter”

They would either be in a fenced in yard or on a leash for outside time and monitored while they are inside with plenty of snuggles and attention.
About: I grew up taking care of all different breeds of dogs, and there’s nothing else I’d rather do! I started out caring for my own, then I started caring for my family’s and friend’s pets too. My experience ranges from caring for puppies and senior dogs. I had a 14 year old lab that I had to provide senior care on, from feeding by hand, cleaning her up, and administering medicine. I am working full time at the moment but am more than excited to spend my days off with your fur babies! As of right now I am available most weekends, and nights. I care for my dogs by letting them run around during the day, I have a huge yard with plenty of space. At night my dogs like to sleep in their crate.
