“Sabrina took wonderful care of our cats while we were away. She was reliable, kind, and kept us updated with photos and messages every day. We felt completely at ease knowing our cats were happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her services!”

About: I have been a dog walker, dog bather, kennel tech, and worked at wildlife rehab. To say I love animals is an understatement, and I can't wait to meet and care for yours! I have been pet sitting in people's homes for nearly 20 years now, and have worked professionally with animals for many years. Dogs to Hedgehogs and snakes, tell me how to best care for your pets and I will exceed your expectations. I have watched over nursing puppies in shelters, and senior dogs in veterinary care and boarding, so I have experience with animals with anxiety and giving medications. I am on summer break from work at a local school, so your little ones will have my full attention. I do have a few 2/3 hr events two evenings a week, but I will be available for any pets in training, or who may need more frequents outdoor breaks. Because I understand that for many pets, consistency is very important, I try to stick as close to your regular walk/outside schedules as possible to make sure routines are kept just that*. Since every animal is different, I will let your pet lead the way with how much attention/ what kind of enrichment they like. I don't mean to brag, but my belly rubs are the bark of the town my neighborhood. **With the summer heat, I expect any walks taken will be very early or as the sun is setting so their paws are protected.
“Ann was excellent! She was extremely punctual, reliable, and very accommodating with our last-minute booking. She communicated well and made the entire process easy and stress-free. We really appreciated her flexibility and how well she took care of our dogs. I would absolutely recommend Ann and will definitely book with her again!”

“Paris did an amazing job taking care of my two kitties while I was on holiday break. I left detailed instructions and she followed them perfectly. She was very communicative, which I really appreciated. My babies loved spending time with her. Will definitely be booking again for any future travels!”

“Riley is extremely patient and calm with Athena. He gave her as much time as she needed to get comfortable with him as she can be very skittish and afraid of men. Very responsive and helpful as well.”


About: What sets me apart is my combination of hands-on animal care experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience caring for a variety of farm animals, which taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of paying attention to an animal’s individual needs. Pet care is a part of my everyday life because I’m a pet owner myself. I currently have a French Bulldog, so I’m very familiar with the unique needs of brachycephalic breeds and understand the importance of monitoring their activity, breathing, and comfort. I’m currently enrolled in a Master’s program in Biomedical and Translational Sciences, and my summer schedule is relatively light, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks and drop-in visits. I have always loved animals and volunteered at my local animal shelter throughout my undergraduate studies, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a variety of personalities and needs. Providing pets compassionate care is something I genuinely enjoy. When caring for pets during drop-in visits and walks, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and following their normal routine as closely as possible. During drop-ins, I can provide food and water, potty breaks, playtime, administer basic medications if needed, and give plenty of attention and companionship. For walks, I prioritize making sure they stay hydrated and comfortable, especially during the summer heat. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to treat every pet as if they were my own.
“Amber was kind and took care of my cat when I was away. She alerted me when the auto-feeder was over-feeding and also gave my chicken treats even though it wasn’t part of the arrangement. She brought my packages in too and offered to visit my cat on the day I was scheduled to return if there was a change in my travel plans. I would recommend her to others.”


“Kyra was amazing and did so well with my babies! I got to enjoy my vacation without a single worry about them. She was thorough and made sure to get all the information she needed to take good care of my cats. I definitely recommend her and will be hiring her again the future!”

“I cannot recommend Winta enough, she was caring, funny and absolutely incredible. 1000% will be using her AGAIN and AGAIN for any and all of my pet needs. From the moment she first met Bmo her energy and caring with him blew me away. If you are considering her vs anybody else book her, you will be so glad you did. She sent me daily pictures and even some videos along with detailed messages of how he was acting and what he ate that day with her. I have never felt so reassured that my baby was being taken care of and loved as if I was with him. Seriously BOOK her!!! I wish I could give her more than 5 stars on here because she truly did go above and beyond and made my time away so carefree and easy. Thank you again Winta.”

About: My phone screen says it all...it's a photo of my dog, the first thing I see every morning and the face I look forward to coming home to. That love is exactly what I bring to every pet I care for. For 15 years, friends and family have trusted me with their pets during vacations, emergencies, and everything in between. I know that when an owner steps away, their pet feels it. I'm patient enough to sit with that, calm enough to reassure them, and attentive enough to know what they need in the moment. Whether that's extra cuddles, a familiar routine, or just a steady, loving presence. What sets me apart isn't just experience. It's that I genuinely care. Your pet won't just be looked after, they will feel it. One of the best things about my schedule right now is the flexibility. Working part time means I can shape my days around the pets in my care, whether that's an early morning walk, staying close during those first anxious hours after an owner leaves, or simply being home and present. Your pet won't spend the day waiting. They'll spend it with someone who's actually there. From the moment a pet enters my care, their comfort and safety come first. I live alone which means no unexpected chaos, just a calm space where pets can relax and settle in. My flexible schedule means I'm never rushing out the door. Your pet has my time and full attention. Trust is everything. Fifteen years of caring for friends' and family's pets has taught me how to earn it quickly, from the animals and their owners. I keep communication open with regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and loved. Whether I'm in my home or yours, my approach never changes: treat every animal exactly the way I'd want my own dog treated.
“Bridget was awesome! She arrived on time and followed my care instructions for Louna. I know Bridget took good care of Louna because Louna loved her! I would definitely recommend & I look forward to booking with Bridget again!”

About: I have had cats for 20 years or more and I enjoy taking care of them. I love dogs and have been helping a friend with walking dogs. I always make a special connection with dogs. They like me. I can see their tail wagging. I want all pets to get the care they need. I am working part time so mornings and evenings would work for me. I can also work on weekends and on days I do not work. I can come to someone's home to take care of the pets or take them for a walk. Feed them and clean up after them.
“This is the 2nd time we have used Mya & she is awesome with our dogs! I love that I can have peace of mind when we go out of town and to know she is taking care of our babies! We have 3 dogs & a cat! ♥️”

“Laurie was so awesome, she accepted my super last minute request and my baby got taken care of! She was extremely sweet and seemed to genuinely care about my dog! Will definitely rebook!”

“Abby was absolutely fantastic! I have an aging dog that gets super stressed when I leave. Abby was so great with communication and letting me know what she suggested to help my old girl through our absence. I came home to a clean house and 3 happy, healthy pets. I will definitely be using Abby again.”

About: As a dog owner myself, I understand that pets are family! I have two dogs of my own: a 16-year-old Portuguese Water Dog and a 4-year-old Aussiedoodle. Having experience with both a senior dog and a younger, energetic breed has taught me how important it is to adjust care to each pet’s personality, age, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs at every stage of life, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and gentle care. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, extra playtime, a little patience, or gentle senior care, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own! I work part-time with relatively short shifts, typically around five hours, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to accommodate your pet’s needs! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your dog has fresh water, plenty of attention, and everything they need while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. On walks, I’ll prioritize leash safety, stay aware of our surroundings, and make sure your pup gets exercise at a comfortable pace. I also believe communication is important, so I love keeping owners updated with pictures and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands!
“Rebecca H. Was awesome with our puppy. She gave us great peace of mind about leaving our little family member behind for a couple of days. It was so nice to be able to leave our puppy in his own home. She sent pictures and updates every visit and very comfortable about having her in our home. We will use her again for sure!”

I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience using Rover! She made the entire process so easy and stress-free from the beginning. She took amazing care of my dogs, kept me updated, and truly made me feel like they were in great hands. I really appreciated how attentive and caring she was with them, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing someone was genuinely looking out for them.

Melissa was our saving grace last minute and the absolute best to our fur babies. Not only was she communicative and polite, she took special care of our two dogs and reassured us they were in great hands. I will certainly be booking with Melissa for our future Rover needs. 😊🐶🐶

Wonderful experience! We just returned from a week out of town for our daughters wedding . We have never left our younger adopted cat before and refused to board him and make him think we "returned him" . We also have a needy old Persian with a bad attitude. Every one we know will be at the wedding too. What to do? Paris was the perfect answer for both our boys. She was easy to reach and sent pictures with each visit. They barely noticed we were gone (ouch!) :). Highly recommend Paris and Rover!

Kyra is absolutely wonderful! We always feel completely comfortable leaving our pets in her care. She’s dependable, communicative, and takes such great care of them while we’re away. It’s such a relief knowing they’re with someone we trust. We’re always happy to have Kyra watch them and would definitely recommend her!

Corrina was awesome with my two cats! She played with my friendly, overly brave boy and won over my shy (okay, scared) girl. She adhered to my recommendations for care and schedules and asked applicable follow-up questions as needed. It was reassuring to have my pets in such capable and caring hands. I would absolutely recommend Corrina to anyone and rebook whenever our schedules align.
