Nancy did a fantastic job caring for my dog and cat while my wife and I were out of town for a couple of days. She treated our boys like her own pets and made sure she understood all of their care details during our meet and greet. She's very communicative and sent us plenty of updates with photos while we were away. And, she was a great guest while she stayed at our home. I'll definitely be requesting Nancy to care for our pets in the future!

Megan went above and beyond when caring for our pups! Not only did she provide excellent care but she provided updates on anything she thought was worth mentioning. Our pups loved her and we look forward to having her again.

Bonnie is so great with my dog. He can have a bit of separation anxiety especially since our other dog passed away a few months ago. He was glued to her side while we were gone for a week. She communicated each day with pictures and updates. I completely trust her and would highly recommend her to anyone who wants their pet well taken care of.

About: I've been the family pet care taker since I was six years old, I trained them, feed them, walked them, pet sat for them, and groomed them when they'd let me. I started to walk and sit my neighbors dogs when I turned 16. Since then I've been doing it off and on as a side job. Now I would like to make it a full time career. I've always loved animals and will always treat them with the respect they deserve. Looking for local walks and willing to meet & greet. I'm currently a part timer looking for a better job and if I can get some loyal customers then I might not need the part time jobs anymore. I'm constantly aware of where my pets are and what they are doing. Since I'm afraid they might get out the door. Always keep watch.

This is the second time Elena has watched our home and our pets while we were away. This time was even over a holiday week. We are so grateful for her care and concern for pets. Our flight was incredibly delayed by a half a day. She was super flexible and still cared for our pets. She responds quickly and is very kind.

About: As a dog handler with three years of experience, I've worked with a diverse range of breeds, from large dogs to small ones. My responsibilities included performing nail trims and bathing, ensuring each dog was comfortable and well-cared for during grooming sessions. I developed strong handling skills and a keen understanding of canine behavior, allowing me to create a positive experience for both the dogs and their owners. I’m currently working full-time, but I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 3 PM. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention, care, and playtime while you’re away! I provide attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have fresh food and water, playtime, and plenty of attention. I follow any specific instructions the owner provides, keep the space clean and safe, and make sure pets feel comfortable and loved while their humans are away.

Lynnette was amazing with my two fur babies, Joy and Biscuit! She gave them so much love and attention, and I could tell they felt really comfortable with her. She kept me updated while I was away, but also respected my time, which I really appreciated. She even made sure they got their walks in, and they were so happy and content when I returned. My sweet Joy can be a bit of a nervous nelly, but she did wonderfully with Lynnette—it gave me such peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter who will treat your pets like her own!

I can highly recommend Angela with confidence. She took exceptional care of our two cats, Jynx and Lily, while we were away. From the moment we met, it was clear that she was responsible, respectful and genuinely loves and understands animals. She followed all our care instructions perfectly, including feeding, litter boxes cleaning, playtime and more. Angela sent regular messages and communicated well, which gave us peace of mind. When we returned, the cats were happy, relaxed and clearly well cared for. It was nice to know Jynx and Lily were in such good hands. If you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate cat sitter, Angela is your best choice!

Leo is the best. My dog Griffey loved him and I felt utterly comfortable and confident leaving her in his care. He was so kind and thorough about instructions and preferences. The perfect houseguest and ideal dogsitter. 5 stars isn't enough-he's a gem. (I'm glad I already have him booked for Christmas!)

This was my first time using rover and Bri was absolutely amazing!! My dog Beau is reactive to other dogs so I was nervous leaving him for the first time but I was sent regular updates and photos. Bri even went above and beyond by loading my sheets so everything was perfect when I got back from my late flight 😊 I will definitely be booking again to watch him.

Hannah was amazing!! She stayed overnight at our hour for a few days with our two pit mixes and they LOVED her!!! She sent pictures daily and updates. Great communication and left our house neat and clean. One of our dogs has anxiety which isn’t always easy to manage and she was not phased by his quirks. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend!!
