“Alexandra was amazing, and I would definitely love to have her sit for my cats again. She bonded with them right away, even my shy little girl cat, who is usually intensely shy around strangers. She was very conscientious and sent me a lot of pics and gave me updates so that I always had peace of mind, especially about my older special needs cat. She was very kind and flexible when I realized I needed an extra day of house sitting, and even left a gift for my cats and me when she left. I'm very impressed and grateful and would highly recommend her.”
“Ellie is seriously the best! She came over for a meet and greet, was very receptive and attentive to all the details. Sometimes I can be a little anxious about leaving my babies, but with Ellie I was very at ease. I know she read and followed all of the instructions because she was communicating every step of the way. And the way she talked about our dogs let me know that she was caring about them like her own. We will definitely be hiring Ellie every opportunity that she is available when we need a Rover.”
About: Hi! I’m Abby, a lifelong animal lover with a special place in my heart for both cats and dogs. I currently share my home with two sweet rescue cats I adopted in 2020. I’ve been around cats and dogs my whole life and understand how unique and particular they can be. In 2024, I spent six months volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I cared for cats of all ages and temperaments. I also have years of experience dog sitting for friends and family, and I grew up with a wonderful family dog who sparked my love for dogs. Whether we’re out for a walk or I’m stopping by to check in, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well taken care of. I’m available full time and happy to follow your routines, send plenty of photo updates, and keep your pets happy while you’re away. I can’t wait to hear from you! I’m leaving my current job in retail so I’m available full time to take care of your sweet kitty or pup! I’m available for walks, overnights and drop ins. I currently have two sweet cats I rescued in 2020 that are 4 and 5 who are my whole world. I will take care of your kitty/puppers just like they are my own.
“If I could give 6 stars, I would. This was the first time I’ve left our kiddos with someone I didn’t know firsthand and I had a better experience than I’ve had with friends or family! I can’t tell you how nice it was to come home to happy animals and a clean house. She checked in just as much as I asked and was clearly very attentive. I would absolutely recommend Sydney and definitely hope to be able to book her again!”
“We LOVED having Jennifer care for our two doggos while away for a weekend. Our last river experience was not ideal and she quickly eased my nerves with how prepared she was just at the meet and greet! She sent updates throughout the weekend and rolled with the punches when our internet went out during her stay. We came home to two happy and tired dogs and she even left a goodie bag with treats. We won’t hesitate to ask Jennifer to care for our pets in the future!”
“Breanna is the best! My dog can be a handful, but I'm confident leaving her in Breanna's skilled care. Trustworthy, reliable, and a great communicator - I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”
“Elizabeth watched our dogs for an entire weekend while we were away in our house. She was very respectful to our house and treated our dogs with kindness and respect. Will definitely rebook.”
“Cheryl was very accommodating and was able to help us out in a last-minute jam she took care of the dogs like her own and was very nice and sent pictures and updates frequently we'll definitely use her again”
“Mary Kay was great to my dogs. I was super appreciative of the open communication and photo updates she had with me during my trip away. I would highly recommend her. This was my first time using a dog sitter and the experience I had was fantastic!”
“If you want someone who genuinely cares about your pets and how they interact with people, Miranda is your sitter. She’s dedicated and so caring. Great person to sit and talk with if you get the chance!”
“Yadicon did a great job watching my cat, Ramona, for the weekend! She stepped in last minute after my original cat sitter had a family emergency. Ramona was clearly well-taken care of under Yadicon’s care, and the apartment was spotless when I got home. Thank you!”
“Aurora was awesome taking care of my 16 year old Chihuahua that is battling cancer and some eye problems, along with our foster pup who can be a handful. They both warmed up to her right away and loved her, she followed instructions for all of their medications and eyedrops to a T.”
“I was in need last minute for a dog sitter and Amy was very responsive. Titan my pup and I met with Amy prior to the reservation, and Amy was very kind, asked a lot of thoughtful questions and I could tell immediately was a huge animal lover! As for her services, she went over and beyond! From taking Titan on walks, Starbucks dates and long cuddles on the couch, I was afraid Titan’s heart was going to belong to someone else by the time I came back home. Setting all jokes aside, Amy was incredible, I will absolutely reach out to her in the future and would highly recommend her if anyone else is looking for someone to care for their pets.”

Abigail O.
“I met Abby while we were both volunteering at Friends of Michigan. She’s an absolute natural when it comes to animals. Abby is now who I trust to watch my dog & cats whenever im out of town. She is punctual, friendly, quick to respond and listens to all of my very specific concerns while caring for my boys-my dog is a bit skeptical when it comes to strangers but Abby’s calming energy is just what I was looking for. She keeps me up to date throughout the day with cute little stories and pictures that show she is genuine about her time spent. I don’t trust just anyone with my pets but I know abby loves them and I cannot recommend her enough.”

Yadi watched my cat, Ramona, for a long weekend at my apartment and did an amazing job! I got lots of pictures, Ramona was clearly very comfortable and taken care of, and the apartment was extremely clean when I got back. I always know Ramona is in good hands with Yadi! 😸
Amanda did a wonderful job, Lacy is a very needy little girl she has anxiety and other issues and Amanda was excellent with her. I would totally recommend her for anyone that has dogs that are a little primadonna. Will definitely have her back to take care of my dog again.
