“Sarah is easy to work with and did a good job communicating with me both before and after the booking. She took good care of my senior cats and sent lots of photos in the daily reports.”

“It was easy to communicate with Andrew. When our dog wouldn’t go outside because it was raining, he reached out to get clarity on what to do. They ended up cuddling and playing a bit instead, and my dog seemed as happy as ever when we got home :)”

“Isabella did a great job checking in on our cat. She was timely and always provided photos. She has great common sense and was quick to address an unforeseen situation after getting locked out of the house.”

“Juliette was absolutely amazing helping me out with very little notice. Professional and accommodating. I recommend her for trusting any fur babies with her. Thank you!”

“Stephanie has been absolutely fantastic with our ‘nervous around new things’ dog. She was quick to earn his trust and get him out of his shell. We love knowing that he is in such great hands when she’s around!”

“Our first time to have Alex keep an eye on our pup. She was all we could have asked for, caring, responsible and kind. We will be using again and good to know we have someone we can trust and count on.”

About: Growing up on a farm taught me how to truly understand animals. I learned to read their body language, notice subtle changes in their health, and provide deeply patient care. This background sets me apart from other sitters. I have firsthand experience caring for animals of all life stages, from training high-energy puppies to managing the delicate needs of senior pets. My farm upbringing instilled in me a strong sense of responsibility and a genuine, natural bond with animals.

I'm available for sitting in your home on weekends, and weekdays I provide pet care exclusively inside your home.

This ensures your pets stay in their familiar environment where they feel safest. follow your exact feeding, medication, and bathroom schedules to keep your pet's day predictable. I keep your home clean, secure, and exactly how you left it.Your pets get undivided attention, plenty of playtime, and cozy companionship without the stress of a busy environment.
“We had Allyson do a drop in when we took a day trip to Phoenix. She had stayed with our pets for a long weekend, so we were perfectly comfortable that all would go well. And it did. She’s a great communicator and really cares about our animals. Highly recommend her!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have been caring for them since I was young, so being around them feels natural to me. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, bathing, and giving their dogs attention and exercise. I’m reliable, patient, and make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I wanted to become a Conservation Biologist at one point of my life instead I went into Public Health! My schedule is flexible, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting, and I make sure they get lots of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. I'm a PhD student and do a lot of work from home. Live close to campus. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment in my pet-friendly apartment, with access to a small yard and nearby Himmel Park for regular walks and exercise. I carefully follow all care instructions, monitor pets closely, and ensure they feel secure and comfortable at all times. I'm a traveler and can't have my own pets but a temporary pet companion is always welcome and adored!
“Danika is very great with dogs and you can tell she absolutely loves dogs. Both of my pups were very excited to meet her initially during the meet and greet, and I’m sure they were very excited to see her and go for a walk with her”

“Logan was amazing. Followed my instructions and took excellent care of my two kitties. Communication was great and I loved getting pictures of my boys everyday!”

“Asher did a wonderful job with my senior cat.He is older and needs soft food. Giz loved his time with Asher. She was very patient and caring . I would definitely recommend Asher to care for any of your pets.She listened to all his needs and took really good care of him.”

About: Growing up, I had two giant dogs, a great dane and a neapolten mastiff, so dogs have been my thing for as long as I can remember. I've had the opportunity to care for old dogs and young, healthy and sick puppies, and each time has been an a amazing experience for the client and me! I am open, friendly, and just want to have a great relationship with some cute, happy, and friendly pups and to help their owners in any way I can. I currently have a great dane and a chihuahua to call my own, so I am excited to play and take care of any animal that needs it! I am currently working part time as well as balancing college. My mornings are generally open, as well as some afternoons and nights. My job schedule varries as well as my hours, so while unpredictable, can be easily managed around. Depending on the needs for your dog(s) I will do whatever you need me to do! From walking, to dog park energy dumps, playtime, meal time, and snuggles, etc, whatever your pup needs I will provide at the owners discretion and permission.
“Sheila is reliable, friendly, and absolutely wonderful with the cats. As a "stranger" in the house for her third sitting session, she was presented with 'visibility' by our feral youngling long enough to get a full-body shot, rather than just the wee white face peeking out of the shadows. So it looks like the cats agree with our assessment.”

We are so grateful to have Chloe check on our cat while we’re away! She always takes great care of her and we appreciate the daily updates and photos. Chloe is very reliable and we also appreciate her flexibility with adding extra dates when needed. 10/10 pet sitter!! :)

Mari was absolutely amazing with my sweet kitty Meli! Her updates were super thoughtful, long, and detailed, and it was clear she took such great care of her - it also made me feel so much better since I missed Mel so much! Meli can be really shy and usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but she really came out of her shell with Mari in just 3 days, which says so much!! I felt completely comfortable knowing Meli was in such caring hands. Mari is the best, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! (':

Absolutely AMAZING! First time ever using Rover and I am completely satisfied. Loved knowing how my fur babies were doing! Definitely would recommend Maddison She is an AMAZING communicator and went up and beyond. I definitely will be using this service again when I need it!

Victoria is awesome! Her love and care for all critters is very clear, and helping animals seems to be a real calling for her. She is super responsive, very attentive, and she prioritized our dog’s best interests and our instructions. Rosie is going through a lot with recovering from surgery and lots of change at home and I’ve been so worried about how sad she has seemed. After hanging with Victoria, our Rosie was noticeably brighter and happier, which made our day. We plan to book as much as we can with Victoria.

Catherine is an amazing sitter for my anxious little chihuahua! I am a little particular about her care when I’m away and Catherine follows every little instruction with detail and care. She sends specific updates and pictures to keep me looped in, which I greatly appreciate! I would definitely book with her again!
