Kyla was awesome and my dogs absolutely loved her! She spoiled the heck out of them - in the best way, and made sure they were well taken care of while I was out of town. Would 100% recommend and use her again.

Allie was an excellent sitter for my 2 year old German Shepherd Dog Hero! She was attentive to his needs, took him on regular walks multiple times a day, walked him to the Dog park down the road and let him run and play, and sent me regular updates and photos of their time together. Allie is detail oriented and will follow instructions to the letter. Her and Hero played so hard while she dog/house sat with one of his favorite toys that the squeaker broke out of it and she went out of her way to buy him a close replacement for it as well as a bag of treats which she absolutely didnt have to do but Hero and I appreciated very much! I would highly recommend Allie's services to anyone looking for a pet sitter. I was uneasy at first having a stranger stay at my home to watch my dog, but after seeing how comfortable Hero was around her within minutes of meeting her it gave me some peace of mind and Allie is absolutely worthy of trust and your business. Thanks for all you did for Hero and I Allie and I wish you nothing but the best I'll definitely be in contact next time I need someone to help with Hero!

WOW..... Apollo had so much fun staying with Julie and her dog Dante. We received several text messages and pictures from Julie. I felt so comfortable leaving Apollo while we were away in DC over the weekend. He was happy to see us upon our return, but I think he now misses Dante his new buddy. I highly recommend Julie for your next dog sitting.

Laura is one of the kindest souls I have ever met. Loved being away and having NO worries about my fur babies because Laura was there. Would highly recommend Laura as long as she isn’t booked watching my fur babies.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years and currently live with four of my own, so I truly understand multi-dog households, routines, and different personalities. I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and reliable. During drop-in visits, I focus on safety, enrichment, and clear communication so you feel confident every time you’re away. I work at a campground, so my schedule varies by season, but I plan in advance and communicate clearly. I focus on drop-in visits and short check-ins in your home, and I’m reliable about timing, updates, and following your pet’s routine. I care for pets in your home exactly as instructed, keeping their environment safe, clean, and consistent. I follow detailed routines for feeding, medication, and enrichment, and I send regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

Gabrielle was great with communication. Bruce and Dori were as relaxed as ever when I got home which means they had a good experience with Gabrielle as well. I will definitely try and book her again next time I travel.

Elizabeth was a great pup sitter for Jazz and Sully, our 2 rescued Golden Retrievers. She kept us informed and sent photos, and during the meet and greet, we felt very comfortable leaving our "kids" and our home in her care. She left our house nice and clean, having done her dishes and vacuumed, and even changed and washed the bedding from the guest room where she slept. I recommend her highly and will definitely call her for future needs.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was young and love watching all animals! I have two dogs of my own, one that has seizures so I am equipped for medication or anything of that need! I also recently got a kitten of my own and understand the needs for cats as well! I am a college athlete so I am fit for dealing with larger animals too! I currently am a college student but when I come home for summer I always come back and pet sit! I pet sit for neighbors, families, and friends! I have a kitten of my own and two dogs I take care of daily. I have two dogs at home that are both playful and nice. My one dog does have seizures so I preferably would watch pets at the clients home and follow their needed care instructions!

About: I am very lovable and caring for dogs. Most of my life, I had dogs living with me and cared for them. I currently have a dog that I love and care about. I am good at walking, playing, and bathing dogs. I am available in the mornings and early afternoon during the week and weekends. I currently work full time at another job, so some weekends I am available for longer hours. I have reliable transportation, so that wouldn't be an issue for me. I have past experience with house sitting with a dog, since I helped a friend a few times. If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you for reading my profile. Hope to here from you soon.

About: My history in animals includes 10 yrs of wild life rescue and pet rescue on the East Coast and 6yrs with Animal Rescue of Tracy on the west coast. I have fostered hundreds of dogs and cats. I am an orphan bottle feeder. I believe all pets are family and should be treated as such. I also understand that no two pets are the same and while one might prefer to sleep under the covers with the humans, another may prefer to be in his own crate. I am set up to accommodate those needs. When I say yes to your family it means I have cleared my schedule and your pet and family are my priority. I also come with a camera so that you can get updates on your pets adventures and day with me. If your fur baby is camera cheese you most likely will get a little pet photo shoot which was always my favorite task at the rescue. My services also include pet sitting in your home, dog walking and am comfortable administration meds. My goal is to keep your fur baby as happy as I can during your away time. I also recognize that some have anxiety when away from their humans which is why my focus is always to help them feel secure and happy till you are together again!

About: I’m very attentive to each dog’s personality and routine. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, or relaxing on the couch, I adapt to what makes them happiest. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and house rules carefully. I do work a FT job during the week but my schedule is somewhat flexible depending on the situation. Weekends are very flexible - as long as I don’t have a prior commitment. I’m an experienced dog sitter who genuinely loves spending time with animals. I’ve cared for many dogs for friends, family, and repeat clients and recently joined Rover to expand my services. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.
