I would recommend Anna and will plan to use her again when we are out of town.”

9. Sarah S.
About: Hello! My name is Sarah and I would love to care for your pet. I have been around cats, dogs, reptiles, horses, and more all my life and would absolutely love the chance to get to know your furry friend. I have an excellent grasp of animal body language and a calming presence that allows me to make quick friends with animals of any kind. My services are open right now for dog walking and dog/cat/reptile in-home visits. Rest assured your furry family will receive all the love, patience, and compassion they require. Your pet’s care will be a load off your mind while they’re in my care! Right now, Rover pet care is one of my top priorities along with a part-time job. I’ll be able to care for any pets for multiple hours each day that is required. While walking your dog I will ensure they get enough time to get their energy out, sniff their outdoor curiosities, and tossing around a toy or two wouldn’t hurt! For in-home dog/cat visits, I’ll be sure to play, feed, and spend time with your furry family to ensure they stay happy, safe, and healthy for your return. If any issues or questions arise I will not hesitate to contact you!
10. Mary C.
“Mary was absolutely incredible with our senior dog Connie. She followed all the care instructions really well and provided daily updates while we were on vacation. She even offered to stay later to wait for us to board our flight to make sure we were making it home on time in case of any delays or cancellation. She also cleaned up our place, washed the sheets and dishes which we never expect pet sitters to do, but it was amazing to come home late and not having to do laundry. We won’t hesitate to book with Mary again next time we are on vacation”
11. Breana P.
“Breana does such a great job with my dogs and communicating with me! She is so attentive and it’s so obvious she cares for the animals she cares for so much. She is great!”
12. Payton R.
About: I am an avid animal lover and find joy in spending time with animals of all kinds, from cats and dogs to birds and farm animals! I am a vegetarian and love forming connections with pets and animals. My very first paycheck earned was after cat sitting for my neighbor at 10 years old. Since then I have worked over night as a house sitter/pet sitter, drop-in pet feeder, and have raised and litter box trained my own three cats since they were just a few weeks/months old. I am capable of walking dogs in all weather, playing with and interacting with animals, and cleaning up after the messes they can make. I utilize open communication with all pet families and owners. One thing that sets me apart from other sitters is that I have a very caring nature and have worked full time as a nanny for young children and babies since 2019. Transparent communication and love are my specialities! I am working part time during the week and would be available to provide services before 8:30 am and after 4:00 pm. I am typically pretty available on the weekends at any time as well. I am not able to provide pet care in my home for others. I am comfortable caring for your pet at your home and in your neighborhood. I have trusting references for my experience and professionalism.
13. Stephanie M.
“Stephanie has been a pet owner for many years. She loves ALL animals! She has a very calm nature and lights up at the sight of any fur baby! She is a kind and compassionate human being and would be excellent with fur babies.”
14. Karissa H.
“I had the most wonderful experience with Karissa! She took excellent care of my furry friend, providing plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I felt at ease leaving my dog in her hands, knowing she is experienced and truly passionate about animals. She followed all instructions meticulously and even went the extra mile to send me updates and photos while I was away. I highly recommend this caring and responsible dog caretaker to anyone in need of top-notch pet care!”
15. Stephanie M.
“Stephanie was amazing with our dog. She sent us frequent updates while we were away which gave us great peace of mind and she was a great listener with all of the little details of our goofy (and sometimes challenging) dog. She cleaned up after any messes he made and got him a variety of types of exersize as well as making sure he ate his food. She let us know about any problems and asked us how we would like them handled if she hadn't already taken care of it. She even brought a toy for him! Stephanie was such a blessing and we will be inviting her back if we travel in the future.”
16. Ella W.
“Ella has taken great care of my senior maltipoo and two cats many times. She always spends extra time caring for them and giving them plenty of love. She's very understanding and flexible with my schedule even on a late notice. I would definitely recommend Ella to watch your pets!”
