“Once again Kelda was absolutely amazing with my pets. She is by far the best sitter I have ever had and if I’m going out of town, there’s no one I would rather have watching over my boys.”


“Ingrid is absolutely wonderful. I received videos and texts and constant communication while we were on vacation. She left my home immaculate, and my dog was cared for and loved beyond measure. She is a Rover treasure. I do not leave my dog with just anyone. I am grateful to have met her. She is a person of integrity - dependable and true to her word. Thank you Ingrid.”


“Michael was absolutely wonderful with my dog. He provided daily pictures, feedback on how he was doing, and cared for him like his own fur baby. Will for sure book again!”


“Katelynn is a sweet and thoughtful sitter! She was very respectful of finding ways to help with our homecoming. She kept us informed and updated photos very well. Katelynn has a gift with animals and is missed at our home.”


“Excellent! Sarah was a fantastic house sitter for Axel, Reagan & Riley. My husband and I are always nervous when we leave the dogs behind and were a little more anxious with our female going into season the day before our flight! Sarah was responsive and kept us in the loop with a daily check and. Highly recommend. Thank you!”


“Mandi house sit while taking care of our 2 Boston Terriers. She was very respectful of the house and left it cleaner than when she arrived. One of our dogs can be fairly high maintenance and Mandi was able to adjust quickly and the dogs were very comfortable. We would definitely hire Mandi again.”


“I don’t know if you’re able to review a person more than once. But I had Andrhu coming for drop in visits during my long work hours because he lives just a few blocks away. I noticed my cat who is 15 took to him right away and he paid attention to my very *particular* requests about her care. Not only did I have a significant increase in my cats level of calmness - but literally at the LAST minute I saw that the sitter I use when I’m out of town had left my cat alone for almost 24 hours. Then pushed he out of bed when the cat tried to ask for minimal attention. To say I was crushed was an understatement. I was in complete tears. I have a lot going on and am kind of a single pet parent until my husband can join me in the USA. Andrhu AGAIN was a god send. One one days notice I let the other sitter go home for personal reasons and Andrhu agreed to stay - he was with her most all day every day. I came home today, my cat happy, playing with a ball at 15 years old. And now I am comfortable purchasing a kitten to make her (and I) even happier. Knowing I have Andrhu close by - he’s SO flexible. He’s honest and communicates expectations clearly which I appreciate and respect. The amount of guilt I carry about leaving her is at a zero. Down from about 200 on my last vacation. And now with our new addition coming - I consider Andrhu to be part of my cat tribe to make sure they’re all ok. I don’t want him to get completely booked (selfishly). But this is the relationship I needed for my sweet girl until my husband is allowed to live here - and for every vacation after. I highly recommend treating him with utmost respect. I have a guest set of linens, towels and hope Andrhu will help himself to anything food or drink in my home. At this point my home is him home and even if we haven’t met he is cat-family. Hire him whenever you can. The compassion he shows to even old pets it unmatched. I’m almost crying tears of joy from having my anxiety so much reduced in this difficult time in my life.”


“Silvia is the real deal! She is very communicative, flexible, and patient. I felt very comfortable having her watch my dogs and handle their rowdiness. She kept in touch when they were being cute and sent pictures…and when they weren’t so good and let me know what was going on. If you are looking for a solid, reliable sitter, Silvia is your person.”


“Krista was amazing! She stayed in our home and gave our dog Bailey lots of love and attention. She also gave us thoughtful updates on how she was doing including some pictures. We came home to a happy pup and a spotless house. Highly recommend!”


“Kilene did an absolutely amazing job caring for our cat and 2 dogs. We got plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Couldn't ask for a better sitter :)”



“Beth was amazing - she provided a level of care that made it so much easier to leave my three dogs while my husband and I went on vacation. This was the first time in 7.5+ years we had left our dogs with someone else. Beth also house sat for us and was a perfect guest! I loved getting check-ins from here and the pictures of the dogs having a great time. She even let our one bed dog sleep in bed with her!”


“Brian was great for our weekend away. We had a run-in with a bear and came home a night early. Brian was very understanding about the situation. Our dogs had a great time, and I know they loved sleeping with him. Thanks Brian for being great with our pups!”


“Kacey is the best! She took such good care of our dogs and sent us the cutest pictures to update us. When we got back I could tell our dogs were happy and tired from all the playing and attention. Kacey was also super clear in her communication and easy to contact; that made it much easier for us to go out of town. Wish I could give her 10 stars!”

“Jes was wonderful with our two large energetic dogs! We received lot of pictures and videos each day, and they always looked happy and well cared for. Our house was maintained well and communication was excellent!”


“Alexis was great! Definitely will be booking with her again. She sent pictures of my girls to me everyday and communicated to me how things were going often. She left my house cleaner than how I left it and even took a sweet picture of them and left it on the fridge for me. Thanks Alexis!!”


About: I’ve lived with dogs, cats, rabbits, and chickens most of my life. I have experience raising a puppy and administering oral medication as needed! I currently have a 4 y/o golden retriever who’s a big snuggle bug! I work afternoons primarily so I have the whole morning available to stop in and check on your fur baby or take them out for a walk! I can crate your pet as needed, and I am a first responder so basic first aid is no problem. Just let me know if there are any specific guidelines for caring for your pet and they will be followed!

“Logan was absolutely great. She took great care of our pup and sent lots of photos. We came back to a clean house, which is always nice after vacation. We would love to have her back if she is available during our next trip!”


About: I currently own 3 Golden Retrievers with my significant other. Over the years we have also had a Lab Golden mix and an Australian Shepherd. I volunteer for a nonprofit Retriever rescue and have fostered many dogs through the organization, and for the past 8 yrs I have served as a Medical Intake Manager for the rescue. I absolutely love dogs and treat all dogs like they were my own. Our home sits on 1.25 acres which includes about 1/4 acres of fenced woods with trails, our own private wooded dog park! We also have a medium sized fenced backyard with grass. Our 3 dogs are super dog friendly and love to play. We have a 2 & 6 yrs old spayed female Goldens and a 5 yr old neutered male Golden. We live in a quiet neighborhood on a dead end street with lots of private roads for dog walks. I have a very flexible work from home job and am always here to attend to your pups needs. The dog would get lots of attention throughout the day and be able to play and have lots of fun here! We have a fenced medium sized backyard, and our back woods are fenced as well which is accessible by a separate gate. I have XL wire crates on hand and can crate if needed. Super experienced dog owner from my previous fostering experiences.

“I recently had Vanessa dog sit for us while we were out of town for the week. She was very communicative while we were away, sending me updates, including videos and photos, to let me know how they were doing. It was the first time I had left one of my dogs so I was worried he’d be sad without me but Vanessa was able to have him warm up to her quickly, which helped put my mind at ease while I was away. She even went above and beyond, working on tricks with them, troubleshooting how to best give them walks (one is a stubborn mini GoldenDoodle and the other a dog reactive Pit-bull). We even came home to a house that was cleaner than we left it! Overall I would highly recommend booking with Vanessa!”
