“This is the second time Jennifer has house sit for us and our pup, Wilma. She is an absolutely fabulous sitter. She took great care of Wilma and communicated well with daily updates. We had an unexpected issue with our driveway just before her booking and she was so accommodating and gracious. We definitely would use Jennifer again.”


“Nicole was the BEST!! So happy to have found her. She gave my dogs all the attention I was hoping for. Stayed with them over night and sent us pictures. I hope she’ll be our forever sitter! 10/10!!”


“Debra is a wonderful pet and home sitter. She took great care of our dog and the house looked better than I left it, when we arrived home. She had great communication, sent pictures, and gave our pup her meds with each meal. We highly recommend Debra for pet sitting!”



“Jess was great with our Great Pyrenees and Aussi/Border Collie Mix. We went for a long weekend and thanks to Jess, we were able to have a stress free time knowing our boys were in good company. We will definitely be a reoccurring client of Jess. Thanks Jess, for keeping our pups happy feed and safe!!”


“Elazar and Ezekiel did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Lucy. They not only cared for her with great attention and love, but also kept our home neat and organized while we were away. Lucy was walked frequently, well-fed, and given so much care that we could truly see the joy in her face when we returned. It’s clear that they both genuinely love dogs, and that shines through in the way they cared for Lucy. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We highly recommend Elazar and Ezekiel to anyone looking for reliable, loving, and responsible dog sitters.”


“I felt like my dogs were in very good hands with Meghan while she was watching them! I can tell she took very good care of them, as well as the house while she was staying here.”


“I couldn't be happier with the care Alexis provided. My dog was happy, healthy, and seemed to have made a new friend, while my house was left spotless and secure. Highly recommended for peace of mind!”


About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish and birds, training puppies and rescues, and walking and caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I love to play, cuddle, walk or just hang out! I have been doing drop-ins and pet sitting for over a decade, and grew up with dogs and fish. I have cared for cats and birds in recents years as well. I typically work 7ish - 3:30ish, but my schedule is flexible. Most of my availability during the week is afternoons/evenings. I can housesit overnight during the week as well. My weekends are often wide open. I don’t currently have a pet in my home, but I am happy to come to you and follow whatever house rules you inform me of! I’m very good at following directions :)

“We booked with Ashley because her reviews were plentiful and positive, and we were not disappointed. We are over the moon happy with the respectful care, attention, and communication with Ashley while we were away. She went above and beyond our expectations, and we are so grateful to her for loving our babies in our absence and caring for our home.”


“Amber was an excellent caregiver to our dog and cat, as well as housesitter. She immediately bonded with our male kitty, and was especially kind and patient with our shy dog. The house was tidy upon arrival, and more importantly, our pets were well cared for ☺️. We highly recommend Amber!”


“Joo was amazing and allowed us to enjoy our trip stress free! She was extremely communicative and even sent us pictures daily, which we appreciated. My dogs both loved her and we’re excited to book with her again!”


“Ethon did a fantastic job watching Maple and Miklo at our house for a few hours. He was punctual, respectful, and clearly great with pets—both dogs were relaxed and happy when we got back. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We’d absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”


“Olivia did a fantastic job with our two Vizslas! One is 11 years old and the other is 15 months old. Olivia came for a meet and greet ahead of house/pet sitting overnight and wanted to know every detail about their care so she could take the best care of them. She followed all directions perfectly and gave our girls alot of attention and affection. I will not hesitate to hire Olivia again when we need a pet sitter.”


“Michelle has house-sat/watched our dog and 2 cats a few times and always takes such great care of them! She’s super communicative and is very respectful of our requests and our home. Would absolutely recommend!”


“Mollie was amazing taking care of our fur babies. She provided regular updates and photos and we returned home with all of them happy. We will definitely use her services again in the future.”


“Absolutely! Here’s a shorter and sweeter version: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Preston was fantastic with Otto and Goose! He took great care of them, sent updates, and we came home to two very happy pups. Couldn’t ask for better—highly recommend!”

Elizabeth S.
“I can’t recommend anyone better than Elizabeth Shafer If you’re looking for a compassionate, reliable dog sitter. My dog is extremely anxious, very needy and deeply attached to me and isn’t the easiest pup to take care of. But Elizabeth handle him with patience and confidence. She made my dog feel safe and loved and it was clear to me that she took the time to understand Louie’s personal needs. He usually takes a long time to warm up to people but he bonded with her quickly and now gets excited when she comes around. It’s such a relief to have someone I trust completely and who understand my dogs needs. If you want a sitter that treats dog like family her name is Elizabeth Shafer ❤️”

Black Forest pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ashley is always our go-to pet and house sitter because we know our beloved animals will be well taken care of and loved. She house sat for us for a week and even our shy cat decided she was part of the family allowing her to treat him with his medicine. She also takes care of anything we need with our home while we are gone and keeps in touch. I can't say how much we truly appreciate her.

Kristin was phenomenal with our boys! They really tested her patience and she was so loving and kind to them. She also was fantastic sending us updates on anything that came up! Would highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone to love and care for your fur babies!
