“While Dutch was super happy to see me when I got home, he was relaxed and clearly well cared for by Alex while I was away. My home was as tidy upon my return as it was when I left. Thank you, Alex, for being good to my boy and for updates while I was away.”


“Jeena did a great job watching our two older dogs and our house while we were away for a week. She sent us a bunch of pics of our dogs and kept us updated daily. Would definitely recommend Jeena!”


“Tess was great with our dog and very reliable! She also helped us out with getting some packages for us that were delivered while we were out of town. I would definitely recommend her services!!”


“Super grateful to Theron and Alx for being able to help me out last minute. They are adorable and I felt very comfortable with them. My girl was happy when I returned and I will use again !”


“Erica was fantastic. She kept in touch with us frequently with photos for an update on how our pets were doing. She even mentioned the neighborhood pets met on her frequent dog walks. That put our mind at ease while we were away on a 4 day trip. Erica took great care of our Poodle mix, Pepper and our cat Lily. We really appreciated the report card and welcome home by our happy relaxed pet family, when we returned home. It was very obvious that our pets enjoyed her! From her initial meet and greet before our trip to the farewell, our home was well cared for as well as our pets. We were so impressed by her care. We will definitely request to have Erica come back the next time.”


“We have used Nicki multiple times for house sitting while away and she is always so wonderful!! She is so communicative and takes such great care of our dog. Highly recommend!”

“Lawrence took great care of our dog and house while we were away— would definitely recommend him! Our dog is often anxious around new people but she liked him pretty much immediately.”


“Autumn did such a wonderful job with our pup! We recently rescued her and she can be very anxious with strangers, but she warmed up quickly to Autumn. We were worried leaving her at home for the first time but were quickly reassured by the photos and updates Autumn sent. 10/10 would recommend her!”


“Julia was great! She made sure to send pictures and updates while she watched the dogs. She made me feel comfortable knowing my dogs were being watched. Will 100% be using her in the future!”


“Sits stayed with our cat while we were out of town and was absolutely wonderful. She shared plenty of pictures and communicated with us throughout the trip. She even trimmed our cat’s nails which is no easy task. Looking forward to having her watch our pets again!”


“Callie was absolutely amazing while house-sitting my dog for 3 nights! She gave me multiple updates everyday with pictures and videos. A truly anxiety-free experience and would 100% book again.”

About: Hi all! I’m Jen. I teach preschool and kindergarten in the mornings, and in the afternoon/evenings I enjoy spending my time working with animals. I have many years of experience petsitting and housesitting, as well as doing drop-in visits for cats and walks for dogs. I currently have one cat of my own, but I’ve had dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and chinchillas in the past. Please reach out to me with any questions! I look forward to caring for your animals. I am available for overnight care in your home, as well as drop-in visits or walks in the afternoons and evenings. I do not offer boarding or care in my home at this time. I have years of experience working with clients in their homes through babysitting and petsitting. I will treat your pets wonderfully and your house with respect.

“Allison was our first cat sitter to also stay in our home, and we are so happy we found her! From the moment we submitted our request in Rover, Allison was terrific in her communication and warmth. She immediately offered to come meet us before we completed our booking, and this gave me comfort given I’ve never had a house sitter before. Our cat really needs human interaction and love, and Allison definitely provided that and more. We returned home to a very happy boy and a very organized place - maybe more organized than when we left! We will definitely book Allison again for our next trip.”

Brianna is a great sitter for my cat and my house. She's thorough, responsible, neat, and gives my "perfect" cat exactly what he needs when I'm away. I appreciate getting a few pics while I'm away and also that she handles the routine house things without drama. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that is looking for a wonderful sitter.

Sarah did such an outstanding job taking care of our dog, Patches. She stayed in our home which made things so comfortable for Patches. Sarah sent daily updates with photos & video. Her comments were so sweet as well. It was easy to see that she and Patches became great buddies. She left our home in tip top shape as well. What a bonus. We don’t leave home often, but we would love to have Sarah help us out in the future!

Jenna is absolutely the best sitter we ever had! Our dog Scooter loves her so much. Not only is he a big energetic dog, but he needed daily medicine at specific times and she was very attentive with that. She kept updating us throughout the day! She stayed at our house as well and was very trustworthy and respectful for our things. Definitely will be using her again and again! She's a great find!!! Thanks!
Laura is superb and amazing! She went over and above in all areas. Perry liked her very much and he was so well taken care of. Communication was frequent and thorough, sending pics and updates. Came home to am immaculate house. I can't say enough good things about her! She is even going to stay on and walk Perry twice a week. I would have her back to petsit in a heartbeat .

Laura took the best care of Noni while I was gone for 2 weeks! She was very communicative. She doted on Noni and took the time to understand her unique issues (reactivity and anxiety). She managed these issues beautifully. Noni was so sad to leave once I got back! I will absolutely reach out to Laura in the future to take care of my pup.
