“Hope is kind, and my dog, Artie, took to her very quickly. I even think he might have been looking for her or wondering where she was after I got home. She is also so great about providing updates and photos if that's what you're looking for.”


“We found Beth in a pinch on very short notice and she was wonderful. The 4 dogs loved her immediately. We have had a run of bad luck with dog sitters for a few years so very grateful to have found Beth. We are already planning to book her again next month😃.”


“Shadae is excellent and is very enthusiastic about caring for pets! She always sends so many updates and pictures, it gives me peace of mind while I am away! I will be booking with her any time she is available and I have plans to be away!”


“Jordan was great! She gave us frequent updates and photos of our dog and cat while we were away. She was also a very kind guest in our home. We will definitely be reaching out to her any other time our animals need care!”


“This was our first time using anybody to watch our dog and home other than family or a boarding center, so we were super skeptical about the Rover process and hiring a stranger to watch our fur baby. However, quickly after meeting Logan, we knew we would welcome her in our home! She was very responsive, friendly and obviously loved animals. These traits were still apparent while she watched our dog in our home for 10 days. She sent us 2-3 pictures or videos of our dog daily (but also stated she didn’t have to if we didn’t want to be bothered on vacation) and we loved getting those updates! When we returned, the house was nice and clean, including fresh laundry and an empty dishwasher. She also offered to water our flowers and they were surprisingly healthier looking when we got back so I know she spent time holding up that offer too. Overall, our dog seemed happy and well cared for and we were pleased with the level of communication she provided. We will definitely use Logan again and would highly recommend her to anybody needing a pet sitter! We just hope she doesn’t get too popular! Thank you Logan!”


“Kalena was so good with our dog, and we were so grateful she accepted our last minute booking. She is thoughtful and keeps you up to date throughout the booking. We were at ease leaving our dog in her care and we 10/10 recommend booking her.”


About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs since I was 14. I’ve given medicine, gone for needed late night walks, and have a flexible schedule that can work around your pets’ needs! I work from home, so my schedule can adjust as needed. There is the occasional in-person meeting, but I’m almost never gone more than 4 hours and will know in advance so we can figure out a proper solution. My work has usually included the basics of pet-care such as feeding them, taking them outside, and giving them proper attention. On occasion I’ve given medicine, helped stay consistent with basic training, and am more than willing to stay overnight.

About: I’ve been pet sitting and house sitting for many years for family, friends, and neighbors. I have experience house sitting, pet sitting, dog walking, and lots of experience with cats. My most recent pet I had for nearly 9 years was a cat I found at the shelter- we became inseparable. I’ve spent the last year traveling the US in my self converted camper van, and I’ve felt that the lifestyle doesn’t suite having a pet at this time- so being able to step in and help others with their animal’s needs truly fills a void in my heart! My most memorable pet sitting gig was for a litter of 8 Dutch Shepherd puppies and their momma. I also have experience with senior pet care and enjoy taking pets out and about if the owners would like. I also clean houses on the side which has exposed me to many different kinds of animals in the home and their varying personalities, needs, and sensitivities. Please let me know if you have any questions. Looking forward to being of service to you and your pet/home! 😌 I’m currently working in the surrounding area for a cleaning company. My daytime hours are pretty full doing that, however I am available for evening care as well as overnight care. Let me know if you would like more details regarding my schedule! I recognize what a large responsibility and privilege it is to step into someone else’s home and to care for their pets who have become their family. I treat each animal and home as if they were my own and try my very best to accommodate the specific needs of your pet whether it be crating, potty, medication schedules, anxiety, play time/favorite toys, etc.

About: For over 8 years, I’ve nurtured my sweet domestic shorthair kitty through her battle with feline lower urinary disease, mastering the art of keeping her happy and comfortable. When my partner joined me, I gained an adventurous 8-year-old Chihuahua mix who’s become my best buddy—together, we explore the world. My pet care approach blends love, patience, and practical know-how, ensuring every furry friend feels safe, cared for, and cherished. After recently stepping away from a position that wasn’t the right fit, I’m dedicating my time to pursuits that genuinely bring me joy—like spending quality moments with pets. My open and adaptable schedule allows me to give the attention and care every furry friend deserves. Whether it’s taking a dog on a lively walk or providing a cozy environment for a cat to feel safe and loved. I treat every client’s home with the utmost respect, ensuring their pets feel secure and loved in their familiar surroundings. I prioritize safety by carefully following instructions, maintaining clean and comfortable spaces, and keeping a watchful eye on their well-being. With a nurturing approach, I build trust with pets through kindness, patience, and attentiveness. My goal is to provide a calm and reassuring presence, so both pets and owners feel confident in my care.

About: I love pets! I have had dogs and cats since I was little and have always enjoyed sitting for my family and friends.

Rachel B.
“I had a wonderful experience with Rachel who watch our two Boxers. Our girl CJ was an old lady who was prone to accidents and Tank who was easily 90lbs of energy. Rachel was communicative, responsible, and clearly experienced with large, active breeds. She took the time to get to know CJ and Tanks schedule and needs. The dogs were happy and well cared for. I don't think they missed me at all. It's not always easy to find someone who can confidently handle two big dogs, but she did it with ease and genuine affection. Even more recently, our Dutch Shepherd had a litter of puppies! Rachel helped watch the pups from when they were just a few days old until they were ready to go home. She handled them, made sure they nursed, mixed their gruel, took them through stimulation protocols, and didn't hesitate to clean up after their messes. Rachel has proven herself capable to take care of tough breeds (i.e., Dutchies and Boxers) at every stage of life from new born pups to senior dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.”

Lauren M.
“Lauren is a great sitter who loves the pets she has cared for! She is reliable with the needs of the pets and is consistent with making sure things are done as described.”


Tiffany B.
“Tiffany's love for animals is unconditional! If there's one thing she and her husband love the most in the world, it's Katie Cat. Since adopting Katie Cat in 2020, she has given her so much love and care. Tiffany also volunteers at the Humane Society of Boone County where she is responsible for feeding, cleaning, and caring for pets waiting to be adopted. She is dependable, punctual, and very attentive to the needs of the animal.”
