Rene was a great sitter for our two cats! She followed all our (complicated) directions for feeding them and they both loved her - even our shy boy! We’ll definitely book her again. Thank you, Rene!

Keegan arrived on time and was great about walking our dog. She got him out to the dog park and walked him every day. We found Ollie very calm and happy upon our return. So grateful for all that Keegan did for Ollie!

About: I have provided care for dogs and cats for over 20+ years. I was the first to volunteer in my youth to "stay home" with the animals. I am thoughtful and reliable and understand the importance of a maintained routine. I approach all visits with patience, care, and professionalism. I communicate clearly with pet parents and adjust my care to match each fur baby's personality. Trust and confidentiality are my priorities. Flexible schedule! I am currently between employment commitments while I assist family members with recent health concerns. I am organized and reliable and can accommodate regular visits as well as short-notice needs. I prioritize maintaining your pet's normal routine to reduce any stress and ensure comfort and safety. I follow care instructions closely and monitor behavior and overall well being. I communicate regularly and provide all requested updates. I treat the client's home with care, professionalism and discretion at all times. I am an active person and enjoy walks/runs.

There are almost not enough things to say how wonderful Elizabeth was. She stepped in when my other pet sitter flaked out about 3 days before we departed. Not only did she take wonderful care of Nika but she provided updates and photos and was really flexible and accommodating when our flights got canceled and severely delayed. She is easily the most responsible pet and house sitter I have ever found on Rover.com. Thank you Liz and look forward to having you back soon!!!!!

About: I’ve taken care of various pets since I was 10. I have cared for many dogs, including puppies and seniors, but I also have experience caring for cats and other pets as well. My attention to detail, cleanliness, and energetic attitude will make me the perfect candidate to care for your pet! I have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation, so I’m able to drop in and check on your pet at a moment’s notice. I’m willing to take on jobs last minute and can care for many pets a day. Before my beloved dogs Rosie and Sissie passed away due to old age, I took pride in caring for them every day. I understand the importance of having animals in our lives not just as pets, but as family. Caring for your pets would allow me to utilize my experience and fill the hole in my heart that was caused by the passing of my own fur babies ❤️

Havana was an absolute dream to work with and I could not recommend her enough!! Our sweet dog is a very anxious and selective girlie and she warmed up to Havana much quicker than she typically warms up to people! Havana was great about prioritizing her comfort, minimizing stress, and building trust. She was also extremely detail oriented and communicative and sent regular updates and check ins. Not only was she amazing with our dog, but we also had some emergency flooding that happened right before we left and Havana went above and beyond to help out with making sure maintenance could do what they needed while we were away. She left our place in great condition and gave us such peace of mind while we were gone. I’ll definitely be using Havana again and couldn’t say enough great things about her!

Sophia came over the day before for a meet n greet and I immediately knew it would be a great fit. She stayed the night with my elderly dog and pup and gave them lots of love. I felt confident they were well taken care of. She sent pictures throughout her stay (which I love)! I plan on using her for over night stays in the future!

About: I have grown up loving and caring for animals and have lived with cats and dogs. Many neighbors, friends, and community members rely on me to care for their pets, which include dogs, cats, and other cherished creatures. I have years of experience working with reactive dogs, as my own dog struggles with reactivity. I have administered medication to various animals and have probably spent hours of my life cleaning pet-made messes! I am a college student, so while I am in school I will be available on weekday afternoons (around 3:00 onward) and can work any time on weekends! Starting mid-June I will be on break and have greater weekday flexibility (available mornings). I am accustomed to spending long stretches of time at clients' homes, adapting to the rhythms of pets' schedules, staying overnight if needed. I always settle in slowly, with gentle movements, to help the pet feel at ease when I am around. This is their home, and I'm a guest in it!

Highly recommend Jon for pet sitting. He looked after our dog and cat (Buddy and Miso) and was professional, punctual, and communicative. He sent frequent updates and photos and was always available via text if we needed anything. A stress-free experience for us and our pets. We will definitely use his services again."

Callie was fantastic!! She was a prompt and thoughtful communicator. She sent us excellent photos of our dog while we were on our vacation and kept in touch regularly. She took care of our home and left it cleaner than we did! She was a trooper through a snow storm and power outage. She is resourceful, brave and kind. An excellent sitter and human being. She will be the first person we ask to sit again. We are counting our lucky stars that we found her and though our Dipper was happy to see us upon our return she is still sitting by the window hoping to see Callie.

Sophia was an amazing sitter for our anxious girl, Tala! She was incredibly sweet and communicative and left our home in great shape. She regularly send multiple photos and updates throughout the day and went above and beyond to spoil our girl the same way we would, even making her eggs for breakfast! It was clear that Tala warmed up quickly and felt safe with Sophia, which in turn made us feel such peace of mind leaving on our trip. She followed instructions perfectly and treated our girl with love, we couldn’t have asked for more. We will definitely be using Sophia again in the future!

Havana house/dog sat for us for 3 nights and 4 days and was phenomenal! Our dog Maya was very happy and I don't think she missed us at all, which is the highest compliment that I can give. Havana sent us photos and updates once a day, her communication was excellent. She walked Maya every day and played and cuddled with her. When we got home our house was spotless. I highly recommend Havana for house and dog sitting!

We had a wonderful housesitting experience with Jada! While we were gone, we received daily photos/videos and highlights from the day.
