“We have used Cheryl a number of times for in-home stays for our two elderly dogs and young cat. She is an excellent care taker for all of them. She is at the house full- time and sends us pictures every day. Our dogs love her! I highly recommend her and she is our go-to person whenever we travel. She is extremely responsible and takes her job very seriously.”


“Nikoleta was GREAT! We always wonder/worry how our pets are doing and Nikoleta sent us many updates and photos, which really put our minds at ease! She was very respectful of our place and I think it might have been cleaner after she left than it was when she arrived! We’ll definitely book with Nikoleta again!”


“Sarah was fantastic- she was flexible and able to hop in with my pup at the last minute, was super responsive, and did a wonderful and respectful job taking care of my 16 year old dog with special needs. Strongly recommended”


“Chloe did a fantastic job with our cat and dog! She treated our home with so much respect, sent us countless pics and updates, and made us feel relaxed knowing our babies were in good hands. Would definitely have her back!”


“Karen was amazing! She made sure our senior pup was taken care of with lots of little walks and timely medication. She stayed at our house, kept it super tidy, and made sure our old lady felt loved while we were away. We will definitely use Karen again!!!”


“Jared was great while housesitting and watching my cats! He is kind, responsive, and trustworthy. I came home to a clean house and happy kitties :) would definitely use him again for my next trip!”


About: I’ve been pet sitting for over two years and have built lasting relationships with clients who trust me to care for their pets again and again. I have a gentle, nurturing approach that helps animals feel calm and comfortable — whether I’m dropping in for a quick visit or staying overnight. I have a sweet pit bull named Cooper, so I’m especially confident with big dogs and strong breeds. I also have experience administering medications and following detailed care routines. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities, and I’ll treat them like part of my own family. I’m reliable, responsive, and I send regular photo updates so you can feel totally at ease while you’re away. Whether you need a dog walker or someone to care for your pets while you’re traveling, I’ve got you covered! I currently work part-time as a physical therapy aide and I’m in school for radiology technology, but pet care is still a major part of my weekly routine. I make time for drop-ins, dog walks, and overnight stays around my school and work schedule, and I always make sure I can fully commit to each pet I care for. Additionally, I am getting married in December of this year!💍🤍 Between my own dog, Cooper, and my loyal pet sitting clients, animals are a constant part of my life. I genuinely love being around them, and I prioritize their comfort, routine, and well-being—no matter how busy life gets. When I care for pets in their own home, I focus on making them feel as safe and comfortable as possible by sticking closely to their usual routine. I follow all care instructions exactly — whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, walks, or just cuddle time on the couch. During drop-ins, I give pets quality attention, playtime, and any necessary clean-up (like water bowls or accidents). For overnight stays, I create a calm, loving environment so pets feel secure while their people are away. I keep pet parents updated with messages and photos, so you’ll always know how things are going. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family.

“Ryan was a rockstar sitter. It was my first time using Rover to find someone to watch our house and 3 dogs. Ryan was available on very short notice and went with the flow when we asked him to administer medication to one of our pups at the last minute. The dogs loved him from the get go and we could tell in all the pictures that Ryan sent how at ease they were with him. We will definitely be calling him in the future. Thank you so much, Ryan!”


About: Skilled pet sitter with 3 years of experience. I sincerely enjoy spending time with all animals and I strive to treat every cat or dog as if they were my own! Happy to help when and where I'm needed along with providing any critical care that may be required. Please know that I will gladly spoil your pet to the fullest extent (: I'm currently working part-time while also being in the Army National Guard! I tend to be free majority of the week and normally the weekends as well if I don't have drill. Please feel free to message me with any availability inquiries that you may have (: If boarding, I have a fenced in yard along with a spacious home that includes french doors that I can close off from the rest of my house in case I'm babysitting a small kitten or puppy that may require a watchful eye!

“Arissa was wonderful to work with! Our pup wasn’t so sure about having us gone initially but Arissa was super patient and kind. They ended up having a great time cuddling and playing. We’d definitely rebook with her!”

I treat every dog like family, handling feeding, medications, and any special care with love and professionalism.

I receive my work schedule weekly, so as long as I know at least a week in advance, I can request off and be home full-time with your pet. I’m happy to plan around your booking so I can give your pet my full attention. I love being active and spending time with animals, so I make sure they get plenty of play, love, and care throughout the day.

In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and I’m always with them during outside time. Inside, I create a calm, cozy environment where they can relax and feel at home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, from feeding schedules to preferred sleep spots to help them feel safe and secure. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities.
