Over the years I have always been dependent on family to watch our dogs. I really wanted to find someone I felt comfortable with to fill in from time to time. Everyone in my family has dogs so we have always traded off. I found Kelly on Rover, she had good reviews, wasn’t too far away and offered to come do a meet and greet with Oakley, which made me comfortable right away. Kelly communicated with us, sent pictures and updates. I am so happy I made this decision, it was the right one. We came home to a happy pup. Thank you Kelly, and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Margaret was exceptional! She took care of my 4 fur babies, sent pictures & updates daily, and left my home in great condition. I would definitely recommend her pet sitting services and would book her again.

About: I have 5 years of pet care experience and truly enjoy spending time with dogs. I have cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, including walking, feeding, playing, giving fresh water, cleaning up after them, and keeping them comfortable while their owners are away. I am patient, gentle, and responsible, and I always try to follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully. I understand that every dog has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take time to make pets feel safe and cared for. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I am usually home and able to give pets regular attention throughout the day. I can help with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I try to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. I have a fenced-in house with 4 bedrooms, so I can safely keep pets separated when needed. This is helpful for pets who need quiet space, slow introductions, or extra comfort. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully for feeding, walks, medications, and routines. I keep the home clean, safe, and calm, and I make sure pets are supervised and comfortable during their stay.

Once again, Lee knocked it out of the park. She proved peace of mind beyond measure and always leaves my house in top top shape and my dogs happy and calm. So thankful!

Ray did an amazing job with our two very quirky furry family members. She put both of them at ease, and they weren’t at all stressed when we got home. In fact, they miss her now that we’re back!

About: I’ve had many dogs throughout my life. I’m truly a dog lover through and through. Close friends and family have always trusted me to care for their babies. We can play fetch, we can take walks, we can just hangout or I can just come by to feed them, let them outside and give them water! I fit pet care into my daily schedule any time I can. I work at a salon where i’m able to leave and come back based on gaps in my daily schedule. I will stop by before work in the morning and after work in the evening and if possible, I will come by some time in between if needed! I can also stay at the house to keep your babies company if that’s what you prefer! I will stop by as many times as you prefer to check in on your babies or I am willing to stay there while you’re gone!

Heather was wonderful with our senior dog, Pippin. Though he doesn't have a complex routine to follow, he's a quirky guy that likes to be VERY close to his person, is forgetful, and sometimes barky due to his age. Heather "got" Pippin right away. We felt she genuinely understood his habits and his singular approach to life. Heather sent just the right amount of updates and photos. Pippin was in good hands with Heather. We are very grateful to her and highly recommend her!

About: Tell your dog I said hi!!! I have taken care of pets since I was 10. My family and friends rely on me regularly to keep their homes and animals safe! I unfortunately can't have pets at my apartment but dog sitting is a way to get my pet snuggles in! You'll receive cute pet pictures if you want as well! I would come to your home and meet your pets first and familiarize their routine with you before you leave. Very open with communication for your needs.

About: I have my own cat Anya and she is one of the most important things to me. I’ve always had a special connection with animals. Since I was young, I could always connect with other people’s pets, many times they would say wow he/she never let’s anyone do that etc. I often feel that I connect better with animals than with people.” I work at a kennel in auburn ny from 8am to 10am in the morning and evening from 4-5:30 but before and after that I try to fill in my time as much as possible seeing and taking care of as many animals as possible I have my own cat Anya but as far as taking care of your animals it would have to be at your place of residence. I offer walking, sitting, overnights, feeding etc. I don’t board any more pets at my residence.

Kellie stayed with our Frenchie (7 yrs) and English/Frenchie mix (1yr) for 10 days. It was the first time leaving the 1yr old. Kellie did an amazing job handling our two girls with very big feelings, making sure they got plenty of exercise and love while we were away! We would not hesitate to ask her to sit our girls again!

Our two pups have been well taken care of by Joey, which was so important to us as he is their new sitter in a new home. It eased our minds as we complete an out of state move that we found someone who is kind, reliable, trustworthy and makes our dogs feel safe. Would (and will) rebook!

Chloe stayed at our house with our two 70 lb dogs while we were on vacation - we highly recommend her! We first did a meet & greet with the dogs and to make sure she was good with them. During our trip she sent us lots of pictures, held great communication, and followed all the instructions exactly. Book her!
