“We greatly appreciated Livana staying with our Tank. He was so happy to go on walks and play with his toys while we were away. Livana took great care of him. She sent us updates and pictures the entire time and we couldn’t thank her enough.”

“Paige did a great job! She updated us very frequently on the status of our pups, with plenty of adorable pictures! She not only took great care of our dogs, but she also left our house in the same condition as when we left. We barely could tell anyone had been there!”

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I’ve had the joy of looking after a wide variety of animals, from playful puppies and independent cats to curious rabbits. My approach is always tailored to each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, I bring dedication and a genuine passion for animal welfare to every job. This extensive experience has taught me how to handle different temperaments and health requirements, making me a reliable and compassionate pet sitter for any furry friend. I am available on weekends, as well as all day Monday, and on Wednesday and Friday evenings. Willing to stay with you pets for the whole weekend or pop in on those days i’m free! There is a fenced yard at my parents' home with five dogs, and I often play ball with them outside. I also have a fenced yard at my place for my 2-year-old Mini Aussie, where we enjoy playing outdoors as well. He has two full toy baskets and bark boxes every month! He is very loved (spoiled) :)!
“Matt was great watching our dog Phoebe. We got lots of updates and photos of them playing. Phoebe was worn out from playing so much and so happy! Definitely using Matt again.”

“Kaitlin is the best! I went away for an overnighter and my two pups were given so much love and attention at my home while I was away. They were relaxed, calm and happy when I returned. Kaitlin was so good at keeping me updated and sending sweet pictures of my fur babies. My two pups took to her right away. She’s so good with animals, genuine, trustworthy with a great work ethic. I highly recommend! I will absolutely be booking with them again! Thank you again, Kaitlin!”

“Ronnie was fantastic! I was a bit nervous about leaving my dog for the first time, as she’s a chow and doesn’t do well with strangers in the home. She gets nervous and protective. Ronnie handled it like a pro! They stayed calm, gave my dog what she needed, made her feel comfortable/followed her lead, provided me with daily updates, and looked over the house too. I would absolutely recommend trusting Ronnie with your pets and I plan to work with them again in the future. Thank you Ronnie!!!!”

“Bailey was fantastic. House was just as it was left and I’m very happy I used Rover to find her. I was much happier leaving him with her than putting in a dare care type place. Bailey was very kind and I could tell she cares for pets well.”

“Cara was great as usual! Our pups love having her and it gives us so much peace of mind, knowing we can have someone in our home where they are comfortable and takes such good care of them. We love getting the picture updates too!”

About: I have had pets since I was super young! I have had my fair share of cats and dogs including boxers, bulldogs, chihuahuas and huskies! I have also had some uncommon pets like gerbils, ferrets, and even a squirrel! I now have a Bombay Cat named Luna along with my Husky Nikita and my German Shepard Moose! In the mornings I wake up and get ready for my college classes. I feed my pets and I feed my cat. Then I go to my college classes at about 8:00 or 9:00 sometimes. Usually I come home around 3:50 on Mondays and Wednesdays, while I come home around 1:00 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Fridays I get out at 11:55 and have the rest of the day off. After I get out of my college classes, I let out my dogs and do whatever I need to do at home. I make sure to try and give any new pets some distance, gently letting them approach me and/or sniff me. If they want to be left alone I will leave them alone, but if they want attention I will play with them or give them love! I know how cats are, sometimes being shy or not very social, as I have a cat and she’s a bit of an antisocial queen. I will give them the space they want as they can approach me if they are comfortable.
“Ashlee took on a two dog household for a week long stay as a dog and house sitter and did an amazing job. She was great at communicating before the stay and throughout the stay, and she could problem solve little things to not disturb me on my trip. Ashlee provided the dogs with exercise above what was asked, she cleaned up the house before she left (including the not so fun task of picking up poop from the yard!), and she kept my mind at ease knowing my dogs were in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to book!”
“Cyndi was very trustworthy and reliable while watching our two dogs while we took a family trip. Usually our dogs stay with family while we travel, but I can tell Cyndi kept them comfortable and gave them all the snuggles they needed! She did a beautiful job cleaning our home too, which was completely unexpected! Cyndi is warm and welcoming and I'm confident she'd be an excellent care taker for anyone's pets and anyone's home.”

“Cindy was great with my Calvin! He was happy and well taken care of the couple days I was gone and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future when I leave town.”

“Paige was an outstanding sitter for Princess, and a very separation anxiety, Panache. She made sure that his food was upstairs under my bed, so that he could access it. It does take her awhile to answer texts from me, but her care of my pets and home was excellent.”
