Trisha was very professional and attentive to our pups! It’s easy to see how much she cares for dogs, and we’re so grateful to know that ours will be well-loved when we’re away!

Jennifer took excellent care of my two special needs senior dogs while we were out of town. I have two anxious pups who take several medications at odd times of the day and I’m personally very anxious to leave my dogs in anyone’s care. As soon as I met Jennifer I noticed she had a very calming presence and asked several questions that immediately made me feel at ease. She was very familiar with anxious dogs and gave my dogs the space they needed to get comfortable. While we were away, Jennifer was able to keep my pups calm and taken care of and provided several pictures and updates. I am very grateful for the time and care she provided and will definitely be reaching out to have her help with my girls the next time we are away.

Bethany did a wonderful job with our dogs. One of our dogs is known to be uppity and Bethany was patient with her. She finally won her over after several days which is quite an accomplishment. Bethany communicated well with pics and video often over the two weeks. We truly appreciate her care and attention to our animals and our home.

Kat has stayed with our pets while we were on vacation, now for the second time. She’s been great both times and we could not recommend her more! Kat will always be our first choice in pet sitters, she gives updates and sends pictures and takes such good care of our animals!

About: I have had all kinds of pets growing up; Dogs, cats, fish, iguana, domestic rabbits, goats, chickens, (oh my!) since I was about 5 years old. I admire every single creature as if they were my very own. This lead to me making it a side hustle (small biz gig) my senior year of high school (2012). Just recently made a Rover account and excited to meet new clients and new pets 😁. I’m very reliable in house sitting, drop-ins, walking, feeding, and administering meds. Just name it you got it! SCHEDULE I work part-time right now, so I am flexible to help meet you & your pets needs. I can help with drop-ins, evening walks most weekdays/weekends. Just hit me up let's work something out! :)) HOUSE SITTING/OVERNIGHT STAYS I'm requesting at least a one week notice for an overnight stay. I have three pets of my own, volunteering, and working part time, so I'll need to adjust my schedule accordingly! I have two golden girls 🐶 and a cat who still all kitten. A mix of low & high energy in my household so I give my cat at least an hour of playtime, and my girls just love to cuddle right up next to you.

Kathleen did a wonderful job taking care of our animals (3 dogs) and did some extra cleanup for us. She sent us pics and took some extra time to not only watch after the guinea pigs, hamster and mouse, but even cleaned out their stinky cages. It was obvious that the dogs were comfortable with her. Thanks Kathleen. We appreciate all you did for us.

Emily was respectful of our house and left it exactly how it was found. It was so nice knowing the dogs were in good hands and well taken care of. Hopefully Emily is available every time we need a dog sitter b/c I’d welcome her back each and every time! Thank you, Emily, for taking care of Tyson and Lilly while we enjoyed our last camping trip of the season.

About: I’ve dog & cat sat for family & friends. This includes giving medicine , helping handicapped dogs, and feeding amongst other parts of their daily routine. I’m currently working partime so sitting is just on the side but my work schedule does not interfere , i don’t mind working and coming home to someone else’s dog in the slightest ! I treat everyone’s animals like my own. I have a cat and have had dogs in the past, i keep them on a routine & make sure their needs are taken care of at all times.

About: I have a deep love for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs with a wide range of needs, especially senior dogs. I understand that older pets often require extra patience, attention, and gentle care, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m experienced in administering both oral and topical medications and am comfortable following detailed care routines to ensure pets stay healthy and happy. Whether it’s managing medication schedules, providing calm companionship, or adapting to mobility or dietary needs, I take pride in giving each pet the individualized care they deserve. Above all, I treat every animal as if they were my own. Building trust with pets and their owners is incredibly important to me, and I strive to create a stress-free, nurturing environment where animals feel secure, cared for, and genuinely loved. For boarding, your pet will have a structured and caring environment throughout the day. I work full time from 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM, and my boyfriend works from 5:30 AM to 1:30 PM, which means there are only a few hours in the late afternoon when pets would be home alone. In the mornings, pets will get potty breaks, fresh water, and breakfast before the day begins. My boyfriend is home by early afternoon and is able to give them attention, potty breaks, and companionship during that time. When I return home in the evening, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, walks (for dogs), feeding if needed, and a calm, relaxing evening routine. A typical day in our home is calm, structured, and full of attention for the animals. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, sniff around, and stretch their legs throughout the day. Mornings usually start with potty breaks in the yard for the dogs, followed by breakfast and fresh water for everyone. After that, there’s some relaxed time while everyone settles into the day. Our two resident dogs are friendly and used to having other animals around, and our two cats are part of the household rhythm as well. During the afternoon, the dogs get more time outside in the fenced yard for potty breaks and play. There’s also indoor time for rest, toys, and companionship. We make sure pets have comfortable spaces where they can relax and feel at home. In the evening when everyone is home, the animals get plenty of attention, playtime, and interaction. Dogs can enjoy additional outdoor time in the yard, and all pets receive dinner if it’s part of their routine. The night usually winds down with a calm, cozy environment where the animals can relax and settle in comfortably. Throughout the day, I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs—whether they want to play, explore the yard, or simply relax nearby. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where every pet feels like part of the family while they’re staying with us.

Kianna was wonderful! This was our first time leaving our dog Axle behind while we went on vacation. He's very hyper and jumps on new people so we needed to find someone that could handle him and help with training. We were so lucky to find Kianna! She does dog training and has experience with hyper dogs, and she lived only a few minutes away from us, so it worked out perfectly. She followed Axle's schedule and his routine and kept us posted with photos. Axle was so happy to make a new friend! Kianna will be our first choice next time we go on vacation!

I am still a high school student, but I work for a pet store meaning I care for pets while at work and at home! I will be very slow and careful when first meeting your pets. When going outside I will make sure they are leashed and or harnessed.

Danielle was absolutely fantastic, and I cannot recommend her enough! She stopped by the week prior to the trip to meet our two dogs, was communicative throughout the process, and sent us picture updates while we were away for 4 days/3 nights. Beyond that, she left our house spotless, and she handled our older dog with mobility issues and our younger dog whose high energy with ease.
