“I am grateful to Rp for taking such great care of my dog and cat. This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely book again with Rp. My dog is getting older and having him stay in his home was very important to me. Rp took the time to meet my animals and kindly took my dog to and from daycare.”


“Adin was great, I would highly recommend him for pet sitting and house sitting. Our dog liked him immediately when he came over to meet her. He took great care of the house, watered the outside plants, etc. Adin took a great picture of our dog and had it framed.”


“Taisja did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs while we were away for a week! It was our first time with an "in-home" dog sitter. While we were a bit apprehensive to go this route, Taisja alleviated all of our concerns when we met with her in advance and checked references. She did not disappoint - the care provided to our pups, the frequent updates and pictures, and the detailed notes provided to us were beyond expectations. I can't recommend her enough - will definitely be using her again in the future!!!”


“Michelle had come over a few times to get the dogs use to her. We needed her to stay overnight and she had no issues with doing that. Michelle also sent pictures of how the girls are doing when we were away. We never left the girls home with anyone before and we both were ok to leave them with Michelle without worries. Anyone who books Michelle is very lucky as she is a 10 out of 10 in our books..”


About: I have had pets since before I was out of the womb! My household has been fully of all kinds of animals. I have mainly been taking care of cats and dogs my whole life. Including walking, feeding, playing, training, and bathing. I would love to become apart of your special pets life and be able to care for them as one of my own! I currently work part time so will have tons of time to play with your fur babies. I am usually completely free on the weekends to watch overnight and I can offer lots of down time and cuddles for the animals. I have a fenced yard and two fur babies to keep yours company. There is option for separation of the animals during a stay if needed.

About: Hi, I’m Diana a reliable and attentive dog owner with hands on experience caring for my own energetic 3-year old pup. I understand how important routine, patience, and positive energy are when it comes to keeping dogs happy and well behaved. I’m great at reading dog body language, managing different temperaments, and creating a safe, enjoyable walking experience tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether your pup needs a calm stroll, structured leash training, or high energy playtime, I bring care, confidence, and consistency to every walk. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a dog owner myself, I already prioritize regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and grooming. I enjoy staying active, so adding in more walks and pet visits fits seamlessly into my day. Caring for other pets feels like an extension of what I already love doing—being outdoors, staying active, and spending quality time with animals. It keeps me grounded, present, and joyful, and I treat every pet I care for like one of my own. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. Whether I am visiting your home or hosting your pet in mine, I create a calm, secure environment where your dog feels safe and cared for. In your home, I follow your routine closely including feeding, walks, and rules so your dog feels at ease in their own space. I am respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. When pets are in my home, I dog-proof the space, remove hazards, and provide a relaxed environment with plenty of love, supervision, and structured downtime. My own dog is well-socialized and friendly, so your pup will have a gentle companion to keep them company if desired. With every pet I care for, I focus on trust, routine, and communication so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands.
