“Amelia was fantastic! She took such great care of our two fur babies and even sent me photos during our trip. It was a real comfort knowing she was there loving them. When we got home she didn't leave a trace and even changed the sheets on the bed for us. Highly recommend her services. Thank you so much!!”

“Elizabeth was great! We went out of town for the weekend and she stayed at our home with our 3 dogs. She sent pictures regularly and kept us informed. She was also very responsive and communicated in a timely manner whenever we reached out. We definitely would have Elizabeth house sit again.”

“Hannah was very communicative and seemed to have a deep care for all of my animals. I received regular updates, as well as updates when anything unusual occurred (which only happened once, thankfully!). I felt secure knowing my animals were being looked after by Hannah.”

“Tresalyn is fantastic! She house sat for us and took wonderful care of our dog, cat, chickens and fish while we were gone. She took the time to get to know our animals ahead of time with a pre visit and was so kind and considerate when we met. She made sure she understood the needs of our high energy, anxious dog and gave her plenty of exercise and lots of love while we were away. It was clear to us when we returned that she had cared for our home and pets with deep love and consideration. She also sent pictures and updates regularly while we were away, which we greatly appreciated! We are so grateful we found her! We can’t recommend Tresalyn enough!”

“Nate was an awesome petsitter! We have pretty particular pets and everyone loved Nate. He was punctual, respectful and sent lots of pictures while we we were away. We came home to zero accidents which is a huge win in our book. We will definitely use Nate for petsitting again.”
“Natasha was amazing with our senior pup! She was very communicative and took plenty of pictures and updates during our trip. I would highly recommend her as your next pet sitter!”

“Morisa was amazing and Shadow loves her. She took him on lots of walks and took the best care of our boy. She also gave lots of picture updates which we always appreciate!”


“Lyn was timely, kind, and did a great job taking care of our home and our three animals. I would book her again in a heartbeat. Our fur babies loved her and our high anxiety dog was glued to her side the whole time. He felt so comfortable with her.”

“Once again, wonderful to work with. She sent me so many pictures and videos, it was clear my kitty had a blast. Booked a home stay as I didn't want him alone. He was actually crying and looking around when we got home, I think he was looking for Caitlin! Thank you for taking such good care of my boy!”

“Laura took incredible care of our dog and our home. She sent updates and photos and our dog was very happy and our house was in perfect shape when we returned home. Would absolutely recommend and will book again - thank you, Laura!”


About: Hi I'm Mylo. I'm a second year pre vet student who's more than excited to take care of all the critters. I have a wide range of animal experience. I currently have a leopard gecko as well as a trio of rats in my home so I'm well versed with both small animals and exotics. I grew up in a home with both dogs and outside cats and have spent the last 2 years of my education gaining experience with large animals (live stock). As a pre vet student and pet parent I have direct experience with medication management and administration so older and or diabetic pets aren't a deal breaker for me. As I said I'm a sophomore in college and I'm currently not working as to give myself as much free time as possible so I'll have many blocks of time throughout the day to spend with your critter. I currently only have small animals in my home so keeping a clean space is really important especially because my rats in particular have very sensitive respiratory systems and I want to keep them as comfortable and healthy as I can for as long as I can. In a clients home it's important to me to be respectful of the space and follow any and all rules set for me.
“Kathy was simply amazing 🤩 my Brady felt safe and very happy he got lots of hugs and kisses Kathy left my house spotless we all loved her and hopefully use her services again 😘😘😘😘😘😘”

“Susan was great!! From our original meet and greet through her first house sitting while I was out of town. Communication was spot on, pictures of Rocky, walks even when it rained ALL DAY LONG. I recommend and have already rebooked a second house sitting.”

“Elizabeth was great. We came home to a happy dog, healthy chickens, and a clean house. She kept up with harvesting from the garden as requested. We'll happily use her again.”

“Kara is awesome and would highly recommend her care for kitties! She took great care of our kitties and home, spotless when we came back from a trip where we also had a health scare. Coming back to happy cats and home was so good. Our kitties were stray/ferals when we got them, having a calming presence when we’re away keeps them close, happy and safe. Kara was so easy to work with, sent updates at a perfect interval through the week, and is warm and kind, so we immediately felt at ease. She’s a fantastic pet sitter and professional!”

“Our regular dog/house sitter cancelled on us with three weeks notice. A sitter I had booked months in advance. Trying to find a new sitter is very stressful as you want your pets to have the best possible care in your absence. Having selected a few from the Rover site. Juliann responded to our initial request. We are so happy that she did. Juliann requested a meet and great to see if our dogs where a good fit for her. Upon meeting Juliann we were completely confident in her ability to provide excellent care for ours dogs and our home in our absence. Juliann is by far the best dog/house sitter we have ever had. She arrived on time and and sent us updates and photos daily. Our dogs wanted for nothing. Juliann went way above and beyond. Our dogs loved their time with her. Our home was spotless when we arrived back from our trip. Juliann even went as far as to wash all the bed linens and remake the bed in our bedroom. We can’t say enough about quality of care she provided. We where extremely lucky to have found Juliann on the Rover site and you will be too! She is simply the best.”

About: I bring a broad background in animal care, with years of experience volunteering at dog and cat rescues in Guatemala. During that time, I fostered dogs, trained puppies, and assisted at spay and neuter clinics. I am active and enjoy running with dogs, which makes me a great match for high-energy pets. In addition to my dog experience, I have worked with horses and lived with cats, giving me a strong understanding of animals with different needs and personalities. My goal is always to provide compassionate, attentive, and reliable care so pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule and can provide pet care 24/7. Most of my time is spent managing and maintaining my property, which gives me a steady routine and plenty of availability for pets. I enjoy being active and outdoors, so I’m happy to take dogs for walks, spend quality time with cats, and ensure all pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. I live on a quiet dead-end road in the woods, right by a river, providing a peaceful and secure environment for pets. I have a friendly cat to keep other animals company when appropriate. I also care for pets in their own homes, spending time training, walking, and engaging them safely outdoors. I am attentive and vigilant, ensuring pets are happy, supervised, and well-cared for at all times.
About: I have been a pet owner for my entire life. I recently lost my Lulu, at 15 years old, and I want to be able to care for other folks pets so they feel comfortable while on vacation. I live in the Grovemont neighborhood and several of my neighbors leave their puppers with me when they are away. We can walk 2-3 times a day and/or just chill on the couch :) I work from home, so I am around all day and can pay as much attention as needed to your pupper. plenty of walks and treat time! My own pets are allowed on the furniture and to sleep on the bed. I love to cuddle on the couch while watching TV, so your pup will get plenty of good scratches and love. We live in a great neighborhood with tons of places to go for walks and a park to throw frisbee or ball. I have a tennis ball flickit :)

Tresalyn is a gem of a human being through and through! She is any and all qualities you would want as a dog sitter! We went out of the country on a 5 night holiday and had such peace of mind to have somebody such as Tresalyn care for our rescue doggies. Our one dog is a highly traumatized rescue therefore finding a kind-natured human is important for us to feel secure in leaving them and Tresalyn totally held down the fort in every way while we were gone! To get home to a tidy house, happy dogs and a hand-written note thanking us for entrusting her with the pups … it is all so great! I would and will be recommending Tresalyn to anyone that requires such services. Thank you thank you thank you!

Medea has been great! She has such a good understanding of what keeps pets happy, especially large, reactive dogs. My Jake (a 152 pound King Shepherd) is totally in love with her. Not only does she provide loving care for both my cat and dog, but skillfully managed Jake’s complex medication regimen. I feel I’ve gained more freedom to do things without my “kids” since she has come into our lives.
