“Eli is amazing! My dogs instantly loved him, which always makes it so much easier to leave your four legged loved ones with someone you don't know. This was our first time using Eli, and there is no question that we will have him back. I loved the updates, he was super easy going and my dogs were happy as could be.”
“Faith was available last minute and took great care of our babies and our house. She sent us lots of photos and videos and was easy to get ahold of. We'll definitely be reaching back out in the future.”
“It's such a relief to find quality, reliable pet care for my sweet, aging golden-doodle. Ashley spent 5 days taking care of my dog and my home. She sent photos & videos, communicated with daily updates and was attuned to his physical limitations. It's clear that Ashley loves animals and she bonds easily with them. The added bonus was how well she took care of my home! It was spotless when I returned, sheets, neatly folded, and everything in its place. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog is old and a bit cranky. She is very devoted to her people and can be very whiny and needy when she is being cared for by others. Carrie took very good care of her while we were away for a week, even letting her sleep with her. We were very pleased with Carrie and would highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life—growing up in a pet-loving home taught me how to care for animals with love and patience. I’ve also volunteered at the humane society, where I gained hands-on experience with a variety of breeds and personalities. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for family, friends, and coworkers, providing everything from walks to overnight care. I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I work a sales job Monday–Friday, typically from 8:00 AM to around 4:30 PM, and I travel locally (within an hour). I always make sure I’m available before accepting any bookings, so your pet’s care will never be compromised. I’m available for evening walks during the week, and I’m open to overnight house sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I’m very aware of my surroundings and always prioritize your pet’s safety, whether we’re out walking or relaxing at home. I’m great at reading animals’ energy and body language, which helps me respond calmly and confidently in any situation. I follow any instructions carefully and always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable.
“Allie was amazing! Highest recommendation! We were on vacation and she was attentive and sensitive to our pup in unfamiliar surroundings. We will use her again should our paths cross in the future.”
“We did a little one night test run with Teresa for our pup who has pretty bad separation anxiety and it went so well! Our very excitable pup was instantly calm upon meeting Teresa for the first time and settled in so well. Teresa is super communicative and we felt totally comfortable having her stay in our home. We’re so glad to have found a reliable sitter!”
“Fern was amazing! First rover i’ve ever gotten that i would book to sit twice. I have been burnt before in the past sadly but Fern sent so many photos and was so communicative and went above and beyond. I HIGHLY recommend her for your pet sitting needs! The cats loved her.”
About: I’ve always had experience with cats and dogs; I specialize in longer walks, which some may constitute as hikes! My dog is a bit too small and old for hikes but I would love to help other dogs get that energy out in a beneficial way. I have experience with senior dogs, and some puppy experience. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I am a college student focusing on my education which gives me plenty of flexibility and free time to take care of pets! I can crate dogs if that is a preference although I am very open to just spending time sitting or playing with them as well!
“Phoebe was fantastic watching Steve, she’s super respectful and kind. 11/10 would rebook again. We also got hung up in traffic and she was very understanding. Definitely the kind of person that will go above and beyond.”
“James was amazing! He went above and beyond and his son taught us a new trick, that we have been working on with our pup! Would absolutely have James watch our pup in the future!”
“Elisa has taken care of our two dogs and one cat twice now (once for a couple of days and once for a week). Both times, she shared photos and updates about what the girls were up to, letting us know they had been fed, walked, and snuggled with. We felt like our pets were in great hands while we were away and wouldn’t hesitate to ask her to watch our pets again!”
“Summer took excellent care of my two cats while I was away for a week. Not only did she follow the care instructions to a T (and I left an annoying amount of notes), she gave them both lots of attention, treats, and playtime. Normally, my cats act as if they’d been starved for food and attention in my absence, but they were so well cared for that they were barely fazed when I returned. We would happily book Summer again!”
“Cora was amazing while watching our dog and house while we were away for 12 days. She sent updates and pictures every day and even handled when our dog wasn’t feeling well and needed last minute food changes. We came home to a very happy and well taken care of pup!”
About: Pets (and their people!) can sense my reliability, warmth, and attention to detail right away. I think it's because I'm a natural "pet magnet" - peaceful & present with animals of all kinds. I never cut corners when it comes to pet care or comfort. Whether it's extra snuggles, sticking to a precise routine, or noticing small changes in behavior, I bring a watchful eye and a caring heart to every visit. At home, I have hands-on experience with a variety of dogs. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, from toy breeds to large companions. I’ve also cared for cats, fish, and birds for years, so you can call on me for a wide range of companion animal needs. The safety, happiness, and well-being of your pets are my top priorities. I am ever-mindful of how much they mean to you, and that informs the care I provide. I have lots of flexibility with scheduling at this time. Just as long as another owner hasn't booked me already, I am available seven days a week. I will follow your instructions for how you keep your pets in your home. Feeding routines, potty routines, play-time and walks, whether or not they're allowed on furniture - you call the shots!
About: Have lived with dogs and cats my whole life (over 45 years). Currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats. I currently also take care of our friend's dog about once a week. In the past, I have: watched and walked dogs for friends and family; fostered multiple dogs at our house; volunteered at a dog shelter helping to walk dogs and other various tasks; and have taken many of my current and past dogs to multiple dog training courses. Routinely work from home so can help throughout the day and also can stop by and help out in the early morning or in the evenings. Willing to walk or play with dogs outside or inside - every situation is different so whatever makes sense. Will give dogs lots of love and care and can tire them out if needed.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments for over 10 years. As a certified groomer, I’ve worked with high-energy breeds, senior dogs, and everything in between. From daily walks and playtime to bathing and grooming, I tailor my care to fit each pet’s needs. My background ensures your pet is in capable and loving hands. Pet care is my main focus, so I have a flexible schedule to fit your needs. I’m available for walks, playtime, grooming, and drop-in visits every day. I provide a safe, pet-friendly home with plenty of space for your dog to feel comfortable. My two crate-trained dogs are great with others, and I always follow your preferences regarding interactions.

Michael S.
“Mike watches my dog about once a week and has been for the last few years. He does a great job. He lets him come over to his house and my dog plays with his other dogs all day. This is kind of a unique situation as I wouldn’t expect Mike to allow all dogs at his house but he does a great job of ensuring my dog is safe, healthy, and tired by the end of the day.”
