Evie took good care of our pups in our home while we were on vacation for over a week. She was quick to adjust her schedule to accommodate our dogs needs and communicated regularly.

Mark was amazing with our two dogs. Our dogs went on several long walks, enjoyed playing in the back yard with their Mark’s dog and loved all the lap time and belly rubs that Mark gave them. Mark was great with sending pictures and videos of our puppies while we were gone, too. We’ll definitely pick Mark again and we’d highly recommend Mark to you.

Cierra did a wonderful job house sitting and watching our anxious dog! She sent us updates with photos and our girl was happy and comfortable with her. We will definitely want to book with her again in the future!

About: I have experience with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and birds. I love all animals, young and old. I’m looking forward to taking care of your fur baby!! I work 2 part time/student assistant jobs so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I am always willing to schedule and plan ahead as well. I have one cat at home, but that’s it. I am not afraid to work with dogs that are excited or jumpy and I can take them in and out of their crates!

About: I’ve had a lot of experience with many types of dogs, from family to strangers I really just love animals. I’m very reliable and don’t really want your pet going without what it needs! I currently have a part time job so I have plenty of time in my schedule to walk or check in on your cut pets. I have one dog, daisy, she is an indoor dog who is very spoiled but also very well taken care of. Trust me she has more toys than she needs :)

Bobbie went above and beyond in the care of my to dog Ollie. It snowed while I was gone and she even shoveled my driveway and walk which was much appreciated. Bobbie did a great job and definitely will call on her again to care for Ollie .

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a great experience with Katie! She was incredibly helpful and flexible, especially since we had to leave in a bit of a rush. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was being cared for while we were away. She followed our instructions, made sure our dog was comfortable, and kept everything running smoothly. Our Willow Mae seemed happy and well taken care of when we got back, which is the most important thing to us. We really appreciate her reliability and kindness, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their pet. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you again for taking such good care of Willow!

About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I currently work full-time, but I’m in the process of transitioning roles, which gives me increasing availability. My partner is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.

Megan wonderfully with our older dog Fiona, she was very good with communicating with me when we were on our trip! We received pictures and videos so we could still see our old girl while we were away. When there was an issue she was quick to let us know and reassured us that Fiona was OK (my poor pup has a nervous belly).

About: I have had dogs as a family pet since 2008. Currently have 2 dogs who are very loved and spoiled to death 😊 I started off dog sitting for a family member in 2019 with a senior dog, and then a puppy a couple years later. I have also house/pet sit for a family friend for the past few years as well. They have 4 dogs (ranging from 15 lbs to 100+ lbs) and 3 cats. I have a good rapport with both groups and can provide references if needed! I also have experience with sitting a 1 cat household as well for one of my friends. In my household, my sisters and I have potty-trained and skill-trained every one of our family pets (we have had 4 now). I have experience with giving pets medications as they need following the owner’s specific instructions. Lastly, I have walked dogs of all kinds of sizes (miniature pinscher all the way to a Great Pyrenees). I look forward to helping you with your pet needs!! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday from 10am-7pm. I work at a pretty lenient place that gives me lunch breaks up to an hour and a half long, so in the past if a pet I have watched needs a potty break midday, I can go back on my lunch break to do so. I have availability after getting off from this job as well, so I can accommodate to late nights as well. I don’t work weekends there so I have pretty much open availability every weekend. 😊 I currently live at home with my parents and sisters, so I do not offer pet sitting at my home at this time. I have pet sat for people in different home styles (apartment, single-level home with small yard, two-story home with big yard). I have always followed every owner’s instructions and rules to a T. Every owner has loved my care with their pets and continues to put their trust in me to this day. I have several references that I can provide if needed!

About: 20+ years of personal experience caring for cats and dogs in home environments. Experienced with multi-pet households, senior pet care, kitten/puppy routines, enrichment play, litter box maintenance, feeding schedules, and administering medications. Known for patience, attentiveness, and creating low-stress, comforting environments for pets while owners are away. I am currently in the process of finishing my degree. I have a lot of extra time and I love animals so I figured I would give this a shot. I attend college online so I can travel with my schooling. I provide consistent, attentive care in both settings by following each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, litter care, play, and medication if needed. In my home, I maintain a calm, pet-friendly environment with supervision, safe spaces, enrichment activities, and structured routines that reduce stress and encourage comfort. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines exactly as instructed, ensuring pets feel secure in their familiar environment while keeping everything clean, organized, and updated. Across both, I focus on reading behavior, providing companionship, and making sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and understood while their owners are away.

About: I have been house sitting for 9 years and have worked in a dog daycare and boarding facility for 5 years. I've had my experience with horses, chickens, and lizards as well. I have a very detailed and organized schedule that I will always work in things or around anything I absolutely need too. If I ever say no it's only the times I won't absolutely have the time. I do have a Shiba puppy who LOVES dogs so if you ever want a play date he is always willing. I don't have the space for animal care in my own place but I always make sure to treat your home as my own and clean up after myself and will even clean anything needed. Also if ever you have an issue with anything (concerns, pricing, or anything) don't every hesitant to contact me i try to work whatever I can with anyone.

About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician at a shelter I used to volunteer for, and have had my own dogs and cats my entire life. I’ve recently gone part-time and would enjoy walking your pets or stopping in for those needed potty breaks. I used to walk dogs for the shelter I now work at. I also foster animals for them, most dogs and puppies. I work at the shelter Thursdays and Fridays. I am available other days of the week on a part-time basis. I don’t have preferred days in mind at this time. I will certainly follow all instructions provided and will treat your pet as my own while in my care. I will respect and properly care for your home environment.

Abbi watched our elderly dog over the weekend and did a great job. Our dog, who is hesitant with strangers warmed up to her quickly. She was a great house guest and communicated throughout the weekend. We would definitely book with her again!

Hannah was awesome with our recently adopted dog. She was on time, sent pics to show how our Luna warmed up to her. This is my 1st time using Rover and I feel a lot more comfortable using it (and Hannah) again the next time we go away.

Jennifer did an amazing job watching my three American Bully pups during an in‑home overnight stay. She was attentive, dependable, and treated them like her own. The pups were happy, relaxed, and well‑cared for when I returned. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter—I’ll definitely be booking her again!
