Natalie did an excellent job taking care of our two cats. She kept in touch with us on a regular basis and sent photos several times as well. We came back from our trip to find our cats and our home well cared for.

Traci was super responsive and a great sitter! We had to change our plans last minute and she was understanding and willing to work with us so that our pets could be as well taken care of as possible. She sent daily updates with pictures and video that put my mind at ease and showed us how happy our dog Ellie was with her.

Haley did an excellent job taking care of my high energy pup. She was very responsive in her communication. She was flexible with her schedule to help me out in a difficult situation and I came home to a happy pup and a clean house. Definitely consider booking her because she does a great job.

About: I volunteered many hours at an animal shelter for six months. During my time there, I took all-around care of the cats. I’ve had dogs (of many different personalities and sizes) my entire life, so dogs are part of my daily routine. I often watch my friends dogs and it’s always a pleasure :) Im not currently working so i can take close care of your pet during the time i watch them. I will always be there when food/ walks are needed I will watch over your pet for as long as needed, giving them attention, affection, and food/water and walks when necessary. Also taking care of special needs if they have them.

About: I love dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. I grew up with a Boxer/Mastiff named Zoe and I am currently living with two cats and a three year old male Aussie named Jasper. I work nights and weekends in the City (~6 to 7 hour shifts), so I have plenty of time to spend during the day before work with your fluffy family to make sure they’re happy and healthy. I love spending time with animals and will send plenty of photos of us/them, with very detailed reports of our time spent together for your enjoyment and comfort.

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for cats and dogs, including regularly pet sitting a Cane Corso for a close friend while he’s out of town. I’m comfortable with large breeds and attentive to routines, safety, and individual needs. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have my own high energy dog, a 2 year old Border Collie–Golden Retriever mix, so I’m used to daily walks, playtime, and regular socialization. Because of this, caring for other pets fits easily into my schedule, and I’m consistent about exercise, attention, and sticking to routines. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency in both my home and my clients’ homes. I follow all care instructions closely, keep pets in secure environments, and maintain their usual routines to reduce stress. I’m attentive during walks, careful with doors and leashes, and always make sure pets have a clean, calm space. I also provide updates and photos so pet parents feel confident and informed while they’re away.

Aurora took such amazing care of our dog, cat, and home while we were traveling for the holidays. The animals were both so well loved and cared for - it was very evident when we returned that they had a great time with Aurora. She is excellent at communicating and providing updates, with lots of pictures so we knew our pets were in great hands. We will absolutely be booking with Aurora in the future!!

Maria was awesome and took amazing care of my dog while I was out of town! Not only did he absolutely love her, but I could tell he was in great hands the entire time. I really appreciated her updates and attention to detail. I’m looking forward to having her watch my pets again and would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Rylee was amazing!! We have had pet sitters off and on over the past 20 years, and Rylee is by far the best one that we have had. Most importantly, our dog and cat loved her! The cat was sleeping on her chest before we even left town. Ha! We were worried whether our current dog would be comfortable with us gone. We were worried for nothing. She ate her food, went for walks, and kept to the same routine that she would have had we been home. Rylee is a kind and responsible college student. She took great care of our pets and our home. We look forward to having her come again and again.

Darlene was awesome. She sent pics and videos, and short messages several times a day telling me how my babies were doing and what they happened to be up to. She seemed to truly enjoy caring for my animals and celebrating every achievement. As a rescuer for over 30 years, I have special babies that need a little extra TLC, and I could tell she knew her way around not so easy animals and managed to win them over almost immediately. We never go away, but the likelihood of a repeat vacation has increased knowing that Darlene will be around to help. Darlene stayed at our house for a week and cared for our dog, cats, hermit crabs, birds, and fish. And she even volunteered to feed the wandering neighborhood cats and wildlife! Also, I’ve never had a Petsitter who left my house as she found it or better. Returning is hard when you have to do major cleaning after you get home, but that was not the case with Darlene. Thank you Darlene! Please stick around the area so we can call on you again ?

About: The first and only thing I ever begged my parents for was my very own dog... I didn't care how big/small, young/old it was but I knew it would be my best friend. I got my very own dog when I was 11 years old for Christmas and now, almost 17 years later I could never imagine life without dogs in it. Our only pet is our puppy Georgia who is a 5 month old Lab/Pit mix and we adore her so much! She is great with other dogs and loves all people. Aside from my love of dogs (and all animals) I am Certified as a Dog Trainer and also Certified as a Veterinary Assistant, which means I am also capable of administering medication while you are away. I am home just about 24/7 so any dog that stays with me will never be left alone. I look forward to meeting and speaking with you, thank you! -Megan R.

Maria is my hero. She really saved the day for me. She took excellent care of George and kept him safe while I was at work. She is professional and put me at ease the minute she walked in the door. I felt I could trust her with my baby almost immediately. She definitely has George’s stamp approval too! He looked happy and cozy when I arrived home. Thank you Maria ! Our pets are like kids and it feels good having someone I can trust to take care of him.

Traci kept regular updates and was able to take care of the medicine we add to our dog rummies food. She gradually integrated our cattle dog into her own dogs little pack and by the time we came back the dogs were all getting along. Traci also let us know about road closures after crazy weather on our flight back and was ok with taking Rummie one more night so we could stay at hotel that night. Traci also came through in a bind when our other Rover sitter bailed last minute. Highly recommended and will book her again for sure.
