“Matt was great watching our dog Phoebe. We got lots of updates and photos of them playing. Phoebe was worn out from playing so much and so happy! Definitely using Matt again.”

“Tate did a wonderful job caring for our fur family during our vacation! She asked questions to ensure she understood how to care for our special gang. We especially appreciated the photos she sent us daily which helped to ease our concerns being away. She treated not only our animals but our home respectfully and we would have no reservations (and look forward to) using her in the future.”

About: Hi!! My name is Lena, and I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals. I currently work at a veterinary clinic, where i get experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve become comfortable recognizing signs of illness, administering medications, and providing compassionate care to pets with special needs. My experience working close with veterinarians is sure to keep owners relieved! I have been around animals my whole life! I currently have 4 dogs. I grew up with dogs, and I’ve had the privilege of caring for them from puppyhood through their senior years. I also have experience caring for cats and currently have a cat of my own! My combination of professional experience and genuine love for animals is perfect for your precious pets! I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities so they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m committed to providing the same level of care and attention I would give my own pets! My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind by providing reliable, attentive, and loving care while keeping pets happy, healthy, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also love updates and photos so you can stay connected to your babies while you’re away! I currently work full time, but I have a flexible schedule and can still provide dependable care! I am fully available on weekends, and during the week I am available after 5 PM. I’m always willing to communicate and work together to find a schedule that best supports your pet’s needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable trusting someone in your home. I take that responsibility seriously and always aim to be respectful and reliable! I follow all instructions closely, keep your home clean and secure, and make sure your pets feel safe and cared for in their familiar environment. Communication is also important to me, so I’m happy to provide updates while you’re away!

About: My name is Ronda. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for years. I have also been a foster for a rescue group for years. Your animal will be taken care of and loved as if they were my own. I do not currently have any pets. I recently lost my 2 senior dogs. I have a large home and fenced in back yard. I also have a doggie door if that is something your dog is used to (if not, it will be closed up). They will have free roam of the house when I am gone or can be crated if that is what they prefer. I will take them for daily walks or hang with then on the couch. Meds, special diets, or any special needs will be addressed. I'll text updates and sends pictures. Whatever you and your furbaby want, I will accommodate. I accept dogs of any size.

“This was our first time having Candice do overnights with our boy Oreo who is 2.5 years old for 5 nights and we really enjoyed being able to not have any stress while on vacation. She stayed at our home for the entire 6 days and did not leave once. We returned home and our house looked exactly like we left it...very clean. We would highly recommend her as she was on time and very responsible with letting us know that we could travel stress free while she took great care of our pup. She also made sure that Oreo had his meds daily. We have already booked her for our next vacation.”

“Kelsey was great! Excellent communication while I was on vaca! Couldn't have asked for a better sitter while we were gone! I will definitely be taking advantage of Kelsey's great sitter skills in the future!”

“Cara is fantastic! Had a great vibe from her the moment we met. She kept my house neat and clean and my girls (dogs) LOVED her! They were so comfortable with her and happy at home with Cara that they weren’t that excited when I got home from vacation! Hire her—your pets (& house) will be in great hands.”

“Bailey was fantastic. House was just as it was left and I’m very happy I used Rover to find her. I was much happier leaving him with her than putting in a dare care type place. Bailey was very kind and I could tell she cares for pets well.”

“She is super excited about caring for my dogs, and goes above and beyond to accommodate them in her home the first time but making it super convenient this second coming to my house when needed for a last minute funeral and it was a blessing.”

“Paige is extremely reliable and she consistently offers excellent care to our beloved pets... Our pets love to be around her and because of this, we can be away from home without worrying about them for a few days... Thankful to have met her through this service...”

“Cyndi took wonderful care of our fur babies while we were away! She checked in with pictures often and kept me fully in the loop about everything. Her daughter played with our dog which made us feel like he was having fun too while we were away. I came home to spotless house- trash taken out, floors swept, and clean linens. We will 100% use her services again in the future!”

About: I have had animals my whole life and I have love for all kinds of fur babies. I can’t wait to meet yours and shower them with love and attention! I just graduated college and am applying for corporate jobs at the moment, but so far am primarily pet sitting so my schedule is very open. I do not care for pets in my home as it is a shared space with roommates and pets. Thank you for your time and understanding.
“Jeanine is amazing! This was the first time I was leaving my Pepper for a vacation. The amount of care and attention she gave her was above and beyond. She informed on how she was doing and sent pictures to put me at ease. She followed all my instructions I had left for her. My house looked just as I left it and was neat and tidy. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Jeanine. She is a kind and compassionate pet sitter for your dog.”
