“Amanda is ALWAYS so dependable, sends updates and responds immediately. She’s such a great pet sitter! I appreciate her always willing to help out, especially when it’s short notice. I always know my babies are taken care of. Thanks again, Amanda!”


“I can’t recommend Elizabeth enough! From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely cares for all animals & treats them like family. All 3 of my dogs adored her & I received regular updates that gave me total peace of mind while we were away. Five stars all the way & we will be in contact with her for all future dog sitting!”


“Bradley did such a wonderful job with my dogs! Really put my mind at ease. Will definitely book him again next time we need pet care. He fed them, gave them water, walked them and had them go potty! We appreciate him so much and recommend him 100%. :)”


“Jenny was so great! They sent a ton of photos and very thorough updates for each visit. One of my cats has a bit of a finicky food set up, but Jenny nailed it. Would definitely book again!”


“Britany was wonderful. She was available very last minute and took good care of our 3 cats and was even willing to feed a community cat that shows up. We would hire her again if needed.”


“We have always used someone we knew to watch our dogs but didn’t have that option on our last trip and therefore looked on rover for someone to watch our two dogs. Joy did a meet and greet with use a week before our trip and we fell in love with her! Our fears of hiring someone we didn’t know instantly went away and we just knew she was the right fit for our family. Then she actually watched our dogs and she blew our expectations out of the water! Such attention to detail! Our puppy can be a little much and she handled it like a pro! From always being on time, to a walk every day to cleaning up messes, picking up dog poop in the back yard and fixing a pillow that got ripped up. She definitely went above and beyond what we expected and you better believe we will tell everyone with pets in the area to hire Joy! Thanks Joy for treating our babies like your own!”


“Megan did two drop in visits for me and my pooch. She made sure she got fed, as well as got out to pee/poop. She respected my apartment and left it just as it was! 10/10 would recommend!”


“Jenny is amazing! 1,000% reliable. Super responsive and caring with our fur babies. I could vacation with ease knowing our pets would be well taken care of. Book her now! You won’t regret it.”


“Erin is a Punctual ,Comunicative person.She was carefully listening to what needs to be done. My dog enjoyed her time with her. When Erin left the house my dog was behind the door crying for a while. They had a good time. The picture she took from my dog isabsolute beauty whch shows she cares for what she is doung not just a simple picture and my furry baby has her besutiful smile showing that she has ultimate happiness. Thank you Erin.Cannot wait to have you again.”


“We booked Leesa last minute to check in on our dogs so that we could go away for an overnight trip. We haven’t used a sitter outside of our family in a long time, but we’re happy to say that our boys have a new friend! We will definitely be booking Leesa for future trips!”

“Thank u for hanging out with them! And it looks like my long time regular tuxedo stray is back! So relieved to know he is alive after the winter storms! Do u mind filing up the metal food bowl in kitchen on floor near sink and fill up kibble from the boys container to go with the "smoothie" drink? And what is your venmo?”

About: Hi! My name is Emma. I’m 31 years old. I have had a passion for animals my entire life. Recently, my 15 year old puppy, Rufus, passed away unexpectedly. I miss being a dog mom and helping take care of your animals will help fill that void. I treat every animal as my own, big or small. I have many many years of taking care of different types of breeds. I offer a few different services including overnight stays, drop in visits or the occasional walk/let out. Whatever you may need, don’t hesitate to reach out! I currently work for myself doing instacart. I’m out and about all day. I have all the time in the world to come take care of your babies! Every animal will be taken care of to the fullest. I will follow any instructions given to me for said animals. I will always make sure to keep an eye on the animal(s) when outside.

“Our dog is so excited to see Autumn for his walks! She communicates extremely well, has flexible timing and is easy to arrange walks with. Autumn will definitely be our reocurring walker and we highly recommend her to anyone else!”


“Abbi did great with my senior dog! I will use her again.”


“Abby is one of a kind! Our usual sitter was unavailable due to the holiday and we had to find someone last minute (I may have procrastinated a bit). Abby was more than willing to do so and was amazing at it! On time, great care of all pets and even filled out humidifier when it was running low! We will definitely recommend and be using Abby again!”


About: I’ve loved and cared for a variety of animals throughout my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, a parakeet, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, fish, a bearded dragon, and a red tail boa. I LOVE animals. When I was a kid I would even spend my weekends at our local pet shop holding and playing with their animals. I am a mother of two teenagers, and have been a small business owner, so I am extremely responsible, reliable, caring, attentive to detail, and have the skills to do anything necessary to care for your pets. I am available most of the time, and my time is flexible. I recently sold my half of my small business and am now taking some time for myself (that I want to fill with animals!), so I am almost always available and flexible. We have a fenced in yard, but we also live in a beautiful historic neighborhood and love taking walks around the neighborhood and to the park as often as possible.

Sara L.
“Sara is a wonderful pet owner & has the biggest heart for dogs! As a child, she would walk the neighborhood dogs, free of charge, just so she could spend some time with dogs even though she couldn’t get one of her own. This brief story encapsulates the longtime love and care Sara puts towards pets, dogs especially. She will love and bond with any pup that comes her way!”
