“Melissa always arrives on-time and ready to go. She keeps our pup engaged and even gets her to walk in cold weather! She makes going away so easy for us and confident that our pup is in good hands.”



“This was our second time using Deanne and both times we gave her challenging circumstances which she handled exceptionally well!! This time…Our daughter was getting married so it was a busy and important weekend for us. One of our dogs was several weeks out from major surgery on both legs, on several medications and restrictions as well as needs for exercise and assistance. And, to add to the challenge she started her first heat cycle just as we were leaving and couldn’t have her therapy that week to help with her mobility and pain as a result . One of our other dogs has major anxiety issues so transitions can be hard for her as can simple things like noises and walks. Deanne handled all of this with ease and professionalism and Her updates were timely and helped us to enjoy the wedding without worrying a bit about the pets. We returned home to very happy pets. Deanne does an awesome job as a house and pet sitter and we wish there were more than 5 stars to give her. She is exceptional!! We will always use her in the future!”


“We were so thankful to find Michelle on Rover. She was courteous, warm and professional in her communications and gave us a lot of ease about leaving our pup and our home in her care. She was great about giving updates and sending photos while we were away. We returned to a well-kept home and a happy pup! We highly recommend Michelle!”


“I highly recommend Josh to stay with your pet! He stayed with my dog Diesel over this past weekend at my house. When I returned home Diesel was very happy and my home was in perfect shape. While I was away Josh sent several pictures of them taking walks together and playing together. They had lots of fun and Josh really focused on Diesel. I will definitely book him again when I need to be out of town.”


“As always Emily and her family took Penny in as one of their family members. This booking was also short notice and she still made it work for us. We are lucky to have her and her family!”


“I cannot say enough great things about Jack… His professionalism is top-notch, and his care for my two dogs could not have been better. He kept them on their routine with feeding and medicine, he was great, giving them daily exercise and care, and he just literally checks every box perfectly, and I felt lucky to have him as did my dogs”

“We booked Jason for house sitting with our dog who has separation anxiety and does not do well in a boarding environment. Jason is great with our dog! Jason came into our house and our dog immediately migrated to him. Jason provided ample walks and gave our dog personalized attention. His wife Emily is also a dog sitter on this site and she has watched our dog too! She is also amazing! We will only be using their services for our dog! We love the husband and wife team!”


About: I began doing pet sitting in 2016 for family & friends, and that was most of my sitting experience until I began my dog training certification. Now I’ve been in pet care professionally for two years, and have had my dog trainer certification for half of that. My weeks are based around pet care. I do it full-time and have a customizable schedule based around my various clients & appointments. I have special hours available at request. I make sure to get an exact outline of what is expected/allowed for the pet, and am not shy about requesting elaboration if there’s any confusion on my part. Additionally, I like to do what I can to keep them mentally stimulated with games, activities, and some light obedience training/reinforcement so they can hopefully carry that good behavior over to their daily life.

Rianna M.
“I've known Rianna for years now. She has been responsible for both my children (human and K9 alike) multiple times. She recently took on the task of house and dog sitting while we were gone and she excelled in this roll as well. She takes our boy for daily walks, sometimes more than once, she's affectionate, kind, and responsible. Rianna is smart, reliable and awesome with animals. Our Crashy is a picky boy when it comes to humans and Rianna gets his best wiggle butts and dances when she shows up to care for him! I would, and do hire Rianna over and over again!”

Ian H.
“Ian has been super helpful with caring for my English Bulldog Skye when I am out of town. Super thankful that he made himself available as I have needed. He genuinely cares for Skye. She is 12 and needs a bit of patience and coaxing to do her business. Ian has helped us with Skye on at least 4 of our last trips. Very thankful for his kindness and dependability.”
