“We had Don watch our 3 year old dog for 3 nights and 4 days. He was absolutely the perfect sitter. He arrived at 5:30AM so we could have our dog be with him while we headed to the airport to relieve any anxiety and stayed until 7:00PM so we could get back not too late with our dog being alone. Don was very kind, sweet, and attentive towards our dog. He asked for a detailed item list for his stay, he sent us a ton of photos and videos without us having to always ask, and reached out to help clean up sheets, vacuum, take the trash out before his stay ended. You can tell he has a passion for dogs and truly enjoys spending time with them. I would highly recommend Don if you are looking to enjoy your vacation or time away and want to feel like you can trust someone to make your dog happy. We look forward to hiring him again next time we are out of town. He will be our first choice in sitters moving forward.”

“Emilie was so kind! She spent the whole day with my dog, Lily. I received regular updates and pictures. If you’re looking for a sitter that relieves any stress being away from your pup, I definitely suggest Emilie :)”

“Liana was such a good sitter and friend to Karl!! Came in town for the weekend have never used Rover before so was a little bit nervous. We were also staying at an Airbnb. So it was a little bit of a complex situation seeing as how we came in town for an event on Sunday so we needed Liana all day but she made us trust rover and she was amazing with our corgi Karl, took him on a hike and showed him around town with our permission! Sent us pics and updates! We know he was well taken care of and had a great time exploring with Liana! Anytime we’re back in the area will def ask her again! Def recommend to any family or friend or any other paw parent!”

“Jessica was great with our pups- our 9 month old Dachsund, with a LOT of energy, and our friends 6 year old. She worked with our schedule to stay a few extra hours while we were on a shoot and kept us updated with pictures throughout the day. Thank you Jessica!”

“Sahirah was absolutely amazing with my dogs. She was very communicative with me and loving towards my animals. She sent me plenty of pictures and was very responsive. I highly reccomend her!”

“Need a sitter last minute and she was the only one that came through! She was intimidated by how large my dog is and they got along great ! Even took him to park , sent pictures and videos. Will Definitely use her again A++”

“Jean took great care of our pup and was so easy and kind to work with! Our anxious and hyper dog calmed down with her instantly. Great communication and updates as well!”
“Nikki did a fantastic job watching our animals and home while we were away. She made it super easy to relax because we knew everything taken care of at home. Highly recommend her and have already booked her for another stay!”

“My energetic dog was really well taken care of by Jasper! It was our first time leaving her for more than one night, and she was communicative and consistent with photos and updates. Everything went smoothly and we would gladly ask her to sit our dog again!”

“We had the absolute pleasure of having Christina care for our two hairless cats for two nights, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the start, Christina was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive. She sent us thoughtful daily updates and adorable photos that clearly showed how comfortable and content our cats were in her care. Our cats are very cuddly and quite demanding, but when we returned home, they were totally relaxed—a true testament to the connection they formed with Christina. She also treated our home with the utmost respect, which we really appreciated. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely great with animals, we highly recommend Christina. We’d welcome her back anytime!”

“Jenny was absolutely amazing. She is very responsive, quick and reliable and she took amazing care of our home and, most importantly, little Lily. Lily can be very shy with humans but she loves Jenny and we would book her again anytime. Thank you so much!”


“My wife and I had Alex stay at our place overnight to watch our cats and she did a wonderful job! She was very attentive and an active messenger for an anxious cat dad like myself. Our normally shy and nervous cat even came out to see her! Highly recommended her to come care for your animals. She left the place looking exactly how it was before we left :) If you need a sitter, Alex is your girl.”

About: 3 years as kennel assistant, 10+ personal. Experienced with dogs, guinea pigs, seniors, meds, and grooming. Calm, gentle, and reliable —your pets are family here. I work part-time and run a small pet care business, so I have flexible availability for drop-ins and walks—especially on weekdays after 2PM and weekends. Most of my time is spent caring for animals, including my own dogs and guinea pigs. Pet care isn’t just a side job—it’s my calling. Your pets will get patient, loving attention every time I prioritize calm, safe environments for every pet I care for. In client homes, I follow all routines, feeding, and medication instructions with care and precision. I’m experienced with shy pets, seniors, and animals needing extra patience. You’ll receive regular photo updates and detailed check-ins. My goal is to make sure your pets feel secure, happy, and loved while you’re away.
“Samantha watched my 8 week old Shihpoo, and did an amazing job. I have only had my puppy for about 8 days and almost cancelled my plans to stay home. But after meeting Samantha, she helped put my worries at ease. Within minutes of leaving for the evening, I was receiving photos and videos of my puppy. Samantha is communicative, punctual and respectful. When your pup is with her, that is Samantha’s number one priority. Will definitely be hiring her again.”

“Rose was great. We needed last minute dog sitting. She had quick and great communication throughout the day. Followed all instructions for our pup and even sent pics :) would recommend and use again :)”
About: I’ve taken care of friend’s dogs for a few years now and every single time they loved me! I’m very reliable and will always put you and your pet first. I'm a college grad, so currently I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! Im available nearly everyday during the week and pretty flexible on the weekends. While with your dogs I will take their safety very seriously but will make it fun for them as much as possible. I am great following specific needs for your pets and rules in your home.
About: I’ve been caring for my own dog (my bestie) since I was 9 years old. I have experience from her high-energy days to her now senior years. That experience sparked my love for animals and taught me the importance of being gentle, responsible, and patient. I’ve also cared for pets belonging to friends, neighbors, and family, helping with walking, feeding, bathing, and playtime. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved in my care. I currently work part-time, so I have lots of flexibility in my day to care for pets. I’m available for walks or drop-ins on weekdays after 2 PM. My main focus will be your pets' safety and comfort while providing a calm, loving environment, and following your instructions carefully to keep your pet happy and secure. I treat every animal with care and respect. I can also crate if needed and keep playtime supervised.
