Yesenia is awesome and has extensive experience with both cats and dogs. She was so patient with Axl as he is a puppy and a bit shy around people. She is responsive, has great communication during check-ins and take lots of pics. Thank you Yesenia 😃!

Second time's the charm. I really appreciate Brenda's willingness to come out and sit our cats once again. She's very responsible, always sends photos after each appointment, and made sure to inform us any time she changed the water or had to make another purchase fir the cats midway through the period. Will definitely consider her again next time I'm out if town.

Leyla was absolutely amazing! She was reliable, communicative, and flexible to our needs. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was getting attention, care, and affection while we were away. We came home to a happy dog and would trust them again in a heartbeat!

Brittany truly goes above and beyond, not only taking excellent care of our kitty but also dealing with various unexpected issues like a large sofa being delivered while we were away and our cat getting outside. She’s an awesome and trustworthy pet sitter and I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks again for everything and happy thanksgiving!

About: My friends and neighbors count on me to check on and sit their animals, and I regularly walk my own pups with their neighborhood furry friends. I grew up with Rottweilers, and have embraced small dogs in recent years. I'm 6ft and 200lbs, and am comfortable with a variety of sizes of dogs. I currently have total flexibility in my schedule and am happy to help with pet care throughout the day. I'm just getting started on Rover, but I've been a dedicated pet parent for almost a decade and love the way it enriches my life. I'd be happy to extend the same level of care and understanding I give to my own pets to yours. I live with my two pups in a small condo complex, where I have an enclosed back patio and immediate access to a very walkable neighborhood. I am comfortable entering friends' homes and allowing the animals to acclimate at their own pace, and am just as happy taking pets for walks as I am keeping them company in their own homes.

Jazmin is amazing. She had excellent communication before and after visits with my kitty. She took photos and wrote the most detailed and sweet notes after each stay. I knew my kitty was safe in her care which gives me so much peace of mind. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future! Thanks so much!

William went above and beyond caring for my dogs. I have two high energy large breed dogs, a German shepherd and a Labrador retriever. William handled them very well, my dogs love him and I can tell he really cares about them when he’s baby sitting them. He sends me pictures and communicates about their visit. He is very trustworthy, made sure my dogs were safe and comfortable and made me feel very comfortable leaving them under his care. I am very glad to have found him and will definitely be hiring him again!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 5 years old and have always loved being around animals. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and ages, including puppies and senior dogs. I’m patient, gentle, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, walks, and giving pets the attention they need. I treat every pet like my owm and truly enjoy spending time with them. Pet care fits very naturally into my schedule because I’m currently on summer break and have a very open availability. I do work a part-time job, but I still have plenty of free time throughout the week to give pets lots of attention, walks, playtime, and care. In the fall, I’ll be taking online college classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to continue being available for pet sitting and drop-ins. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I love making part of my routine. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I pay close attention to pets at all times and make sure they are in a clean, calm, and safe environment. I also make it a priority to give pets lots of love, patience, and attention so they feel relaxed while their owners are away. I respect clients’ homes, keep everything tidy, and communicate regularly with updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: I bring a calm, dependable approach to pet care. I’m an EMT with training in K9, CPR, and basic first aid, and I’m especially patient with both puppies and senior dogs. I also have a mini Bernedoodle of my own, so I understand the level of care, attention, and love every dog deserves. I work nights, so I’m available during the day, preferably morning or walks, hikes, runs check ins, and quality time. I stay active with hiking and running, Transparency is very important to me. If I’m unsure about something, I prefer to ask for clarification rather than make assumptions. Animals are our best friends, and I believe in kindness, patience, and clear communication.

I am very careful and safety-conscious, so you can be sure I will leave your home secure and comfortable for your pets when I visit.

About: Growing up with all sorts of animals since I was a little one, I’ve always understood the imense responsibility that comes with owning pets. Having a few pets myself independently now, I also know how important it is to have a trusted and honest person to look after while you’re away from home! That said, aside from growing up with and caring for my own pets, I have also worked in the veterinary field a few years ago. Thus making me experienced with administering medications if needed, as well as having worked with pets in need of special care and attention. From high energy, to seniors! My availability is fairly flexible, within reason and I am always quick to get back to you asap. Though I can’t take any pets in for boarding due to my landlords policy, I am happy to house sit and send plenty of photos of your pets to check in with you if that’s something you would like. Feel free to ask my any other questions that I may not have answered. And I look forward to hearing from you!

About: I believe that it is important to adapt to each dog's individual personality and preferences when caring for them. I have had experience all my life with my own, and family, pets of all shapes and sizes and can tell you for sure, one size does not fit all lol. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats so I'm confident in my ability to handle anything they throw at me. I'd love to get to know your pet as well :) I work from home so I am highly flexible and can fit your pet in my day at any time for your requested activities, or lack thereof haha I have pets at home, so if your pet prefers not making friends at this time, I can drop by or stay with your pet at their home!

About: What sets me apart is how attentive and patient I am with every pet I care for. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I take my time to make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for during every visit. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in, I treat each pet like they’re my own and make sure they get not just the basics, but genuine care, affection, and attention. Pet parents can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and consistent every time. I am currently with a lot of free time, trying to stay active and what better way to go for walks than with a dog. I’m very attentive, patient, and reliable. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for during every visit.

About: I grew up around big dogs my whole life. Shepherds, Huskies, Rottweilers, etc, so I’m very comfortable dealing with big, fun and energetic dogs I currently work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I can make myself available in the mornings, afternoons and evenings if I am needed. Your pet will always be my priority. I have a German Shepherd who has very particular needs, so I can relate to people who want the best care for their pets.

We feel very fortunate to have found Jill! One of the things we appreciated right away is that she lives in our neighborhood, which made scheduling and communication very convenient. From the moment she came over for the meet-and-greet, it was obvious that she was completely comfortable with both cats and dogs. She asked thoughtful questions, took the time to get to know our pets, and immediately inspired confidence. Jill has cared for our pets twice now, including one visit with our Golden Retriever in addition to our cats. She took excellent care of everyone, sent regular, detailed updates with plenty of photos, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We also appreciated the little things, like noticing and closing windows that had been left open before we left. We are already planning to book Jill again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter.

I had long weekend plans and was unable to bring my dogs with me, so I booked Ana to come feed them and walk them for 4 days. Ana was timely, communicative, very nice and I know my dogs felt comfortable and safe with her. This meant so much to me, thank you Ana!! Highly recommended.

Sarah did an amazing job with my 1.5 year old lab puppy while I was gone on a work trip. Sent thorough updates, pictures, videos, and strong comms on both days after every drop-in. She even practiced the commands my dog knows to keep her mind occupied on top of playing with her. Will def be re-booking Sarah in the future.
