Walter and Sarah provided such good care to our pup! They did a house sit for us and were incredibly responsive, provided good updates, and made our anxious dog feel very comfortable. Walter took Bluebell for runs, an activity she loves! And when they left, they left some calming jazz music on to keep her company. We would definitely work with Walter and Sarah again!

Molly did a fantastic job with my dog Sammy! He can be a bit sad and anxious when I leave home, but she made him comfortable and gave him lots of snuggles. Molly sent lots of pics during her stay and left my house tidy. Would highly recommend her for house sitting your pup!

About: I’ve been professionally working with dogs for the past 7 years, with experience in grooming, boarding, and daycare settings. Throughout my career, I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and support. I’m also experienced in administering oral medications safely and comfortably when needed. I am certified in Pet First Aid/ CPR, and Safe Handling, so I am trained to recognize behavioral patterns and body language in both dogs and cats, allowing me to quickly understand when a pet is relaxed, anxious, stressed, or overstimulated-and respond appropriately to help them feel safe and comfortable. I currently work Mon-Fri as Dog Groomer, so the time I finish up for the day fluctuates depending on my schedule, and any obstacles we run into at the salon. I am typically out of work by/before 3pm, and I am currently available for drop-ins/ walks Mon-Fri from 3pm-10pm When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide care that feels consistent and comforting while their owner is away. I have experience with pets of all ages and temperaments, including puppies, senior pets, shy cats, high-energy dogs, and animals that may need extra patience or space to build trust. Whether that means playtime, walks, feeding schedules, medication administration, litter box cleaning, or simply providing calm companionship, I always take an individualized approach to each pet.

Kelso was absolutely incredible taking care of my doggo child who can be a handful, I completely felt at ease with my dog son in her care! She kindly gave me updates, pics, video, and even got him his first pup cup which he loved! She administered his AM & PM meds without missing any, gave him his special meals, and was able to handle his dog reactivity on walks & keep my boy safe & other dogs safe as well. Cookie was even sad to see her go as he made a new bff, and he’s a picky lil guy. She’s super easy going and down to earth, I will definitely be rebooking the next time I need a doggo sitter & will be recommending for any friends who need dog sitters too!! 🙏🙌👌💖💖💖💖💖🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🐶☺️🤩

Caline is so great!! We came home to a very happy dog after Caline spent a long holiday weekend with her. She was reliable and frequently shared updates/phots. She was also very patient with our energetic and overly affectionate dog. Would absolutely recommend Caline as a sitter, and we plan to reach out to her again in the future.

Nya truly is the best of the best! This was her second time watching our cat, Cowboy, and far from the last. Nya always sends detailed updates in the morning and night about Cowboy, along with tons of photos. She left our home spotless, where it looked cleaner than when we left! Cowboy loves her and we never are worried about him when he’s with her. We love Nya and would recommend her to anyone!

Incredible from start to finish. My first time using Rover and I will for sure be using Melanie again. She made the process so easy, was incredibly reassuring, dealt with the quirks of a new rescue (and non working washer) and I was 100% comfortable my dog was in the best hands. Would recommend without reservation

Nicole is a SUPERSTAR sitter. You can tell she is a true animal lover. She took such good care of my cat Nora and calmed my anxiety with frequent updates and pictures! I felt so relieved knowing she was at my home with Nora and I could relax on my vacation. I have already booked Nicole again for a future trip, and I highly recommend using her as a sitter for all your pet needs!
