“Jackson is a lifesaver with our dogs! We have a 10 mo. aus-shepherd mix with aggression and fear issues (wont allow strangers to come near us, or into the house or backyard). After a few visits with Jackson our dog is now so happy to see him each time! Jackson is one of the very few people our dog allows into our home, as well as to hang out and play with him and leash him for walks (if anyone has dealt with an aggressive dog they know the struggles, so to find someone we can count on for our pup is priceless). I would wholeheartedly recommend Jackson!”

“Zoe was able to stop by very last minute to help our 2 dogs with a potty break and medication intake. She was a very communicative and updated us with how the visit went. We really appreciate it!”

“Amy was perfect 10/10 she was very communicative, and checked in at all the times updated us with photos , I can tell her time with our Kai was good.”

“Gabrielle took great care of my two cats. One of them I was especially worried about and she gave me lots of updates and pictures to let me know how he was doing. I really appreciated how thoughtful she was with him!”


“Aichon is wonderful! She is really good to my puppies (I think they might like her more than they do me!) She has been great to work with, always punctual and great with communication. Highly recommend!”
“Samantha was very nice and super flexible! I gave her access to my home to give my cat her medication in the evenings. She was trust worthy and cleaned up after herself. My cat seemed to enjoy her company/ like her.”

“Brian's been great with our pups. I love how quickly he responds to requests, and the notes he leaves about the visit! I can feel confident that my dogs are well taken care of in Brian's care. Thanks for another great visit!”

“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't be happier with the service! Audrey was fantastic during the stop-in visits for our dogs. She was prompt, professional, and made sure to give us updates after each visit, which was so reassuring.”

“Kagen was prompt was so kind with Luna. Kagen made sure she had dinner and a nice break in the evening. Luna and I are looking forward to Kagen's future visits!”

“Allison is truly the best! She has watched our medium sized husky mix over 2 separate extended weekends. Our dog has separation anxiety & Allison happily accommodated us and came to meet our dog a few days before the scheduled drop ins! She communicates well & we looked forward to her very detailed rover cards morning & night! It was so nice to see photos of our dog (& with Allison too!) while away. Would recommend her to anyone & will be contacting her first the next time we need drop in visits :)”


“I hired Sonny to care for my boy twice recently for a few drop-in visits. They did an incredible job with my instructions and - based on the pictures I got and the way he acted upon my return! - my boy was satisfied with the care he got. My favorites were getting sent them playing around with his toys. I also got detailed updates, which was so relieving while I was away! I would definitely rebook if I'm in need of a sitter in the future.”

“Gillian has been my pet sitter a while. This most recent visit she noticed a change in my cat’s behavior and notified me right away! Very attentive, I know my cat is in good hands with her!”

“Sophia was very caring for Nox, and he really likes her! She filled the Rover card and took lots of pictures which are always so nice when you’re away. She’s lovely to work with, already booked with her again for an upcoming trip.”

About: I am always happy to help out with my friends or neighborhood animals. I love all the cuddles and licks when I visit. I even help the lost ones that find their way to our door. I am self-employed and throughout the week go to meetings that can last 90 minutes. I am usually not gone any longer than a total of 6 hours. I am able to set my own schedule, so I can be flexible when housesitting. If I am boarding there is always an adult home to care for a pet. I like to walk, exercise, and play with pets. I go to local dog parks at least 2x/week with my own dogs. I also enjoy the snuggles pets are willing to give. I base my care off of what an owner likes and does, as well as what the pet is open to.
About: I have a 2 yr old golden retriever of my own! I’ve had and taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. They truly are part of the family! I understand the anxiousness of being away from your beloved pet and am ready to help check in, walk, play or board your furry family member. I’m currently working from home and occasionally need to stop at the office for 1-2 hours. I’m also available in weekends! My pup usually gets 3 walks a day and plenty of time outside weather permitting. I have a fenced in front and back yard. I have a 2 yr old golden retriever who’s happy and playful. I have a portable crate if needed. Dogs are welcome on the bed and furniture.
“Melanie does a great job! She has good communication, sends lots of pictures to let us know how the kitties are doing. Our girls are shy but warming up to her well ☺️”
