“Emily is simply amazing! She is communicative and gives awesome updates. There was no doubt in our mind that our furbabies were being cared for with the utmost care. She went above and beyond our expectations and previous sitters. Highly highly recommend Emily for your pet sitting needs!!”


“Drusila did a WONDERFUL job with our little scamp, Spencer! I can't say enough good things about her. He's very bonded with my husband and we were afraid that he'd be depressed when we were gone, but he loves Drusila, ate all his meals, played frisbee and even climbed in her lap and enjoyed belly rubs! He's normally quite shy and even tends to duck away from petting, so we were quite pleasantly surprised. Aunt Drusila is a keeper! <g>”


“Michelle has taken wonderful care of our cats multiple times! She is very reliable, sends updates and photos! We will definitely be using Michelle again in the future!”



“Evelyn was fantastic! At the meet and greet she showed up with pen and paper taking notes to make sure she didn’t miss anything important, which I loved since my dogs have a lot of instructions. She came on a walk with us on their regular route to see how they act and what they’re used to. I am very pleased to continue working with Evelyn in the future!”


“I am thrilled to have found Sandy on Rover! I trusted her immediately and left for my trip without a worry in the world. She sent pix and videos of my kitties getting loving attention and purring their cute little heads off every day. She immediately connected with my less social cat and was able to administer his medication daily. My cats were the least needy they've ever been upon my return; and also did not barf at all while I was gone-a 1st for me over the last 10 years of travel! I highly reccommend Sandy! She was great with my pets and is incredibly trustworthy and responsive.”


“I can’t recommend Danielle enough! They took amazing care of my cat Jerry while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very beginning, Danielle was professional, responsive, and clearly experienced with cats. Jerry can be a bit shy with new people, but he warmed up to Danielle right away — a true testament to their gentle and kind approach. I received regular updates, including photos and little notes about how Jerry was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Danielle didn’t just “watch” Jerry, but genuinely cared for him — playing with him, keeping his routine, and making sure he felt safe and comfortable. When I came home, Jerry was relaxed, happy, and clearly well looked after. Everything was neat and clean, and his food, water, and litter area were spotless. It honestly felt like I never left. If you're looking for a trustworthy, loving, and responsible cat sitter, look no further than Danielle. Jerry and I are both so lucky to have found her.”


“Cory came for a meet and greet and we all took a walk together with my dog. He is a very nice young man with a sincere love for dogs. We will be calling on Cory when we need a sitter.”


About: Hi there! I'm Bree, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and loved when you’re away. That’s why I always communicate clearly with pet parents to understand their needs before taking up a job. I want the best experience for all parties. I can send regular updates, photos, and even a few videos to keep you in the loop! I'm currently working 3 days a week, usually Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays from 8 am to 3 pm at the latest. Pet care can fit into my schedule very well, depending on the needs and wants of the owners and pets. I am very flexible and can adjust accordingly Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet with the same level of love, respect, and attention I give my own. In your home, I do my best to keep your pet’s routine consistent—mealtimes, walks, play, and quiet time—because I know how important structure is for their well-being. I’m careful to follow your instructions exactly, and I always double-check details like feeding guidelines, medication, and home security (doors, gates, etc.). I also send regular updates if needed, so you know your pet is happy and safe while you're away.

About: I have been sitting for years and currently have two dogs of my own. Our older dog had ear cancer so I am familiar with how to care for sick dogs and how to give medicine and the treatments of such nature. I currently work during the work week so I am free most nights during the week week do stop ins and then have much more open availability on the weekends! I am very attentive to the needs set out by the parents and make sure I am following instructions! I love taking the pets and walks as it’s good for both me and them! I would love to play and also can be down for a good cuddle as well.

About: I've had cats my whole life, and frequently pet set for neighbors and family friends. I have taken care of dogs, cats, fish and barn animals. While I'm home from college, my work is virtual, so my availability to pet sit is wide open and flexible for you and your fur babies. I will take dogs out for a walk, or playtime in your fenced yard. I will also clean food bowls, change water bowls, feed them wet or dry food and give them lots of love.

About: Being an animal lover my neighbors and family friends have always asked me to watch their pets when they are out of town. I have experience with dogs and cats. I am a full time student and waitress in the summer. I have a hard time picking up shifts so I’m looking to add pet care into my schedule! I love playing with dogs and cats and giving them love on top of the standard care I will provide (letting them out, feeding them etc).

About: I have been around animals most of my life. I did have a dog growing up, he passed away a few years ago. I have also taken care of tarantulas, snakes, fish, other reptiles, cats and dogs. I now live with my fiance and we have two dogs that are very friendly. My schedule is open, I am off from work on weekends and get out of work around 3:00PM. Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special medicine. Your dog must get along with other animals as I have two dogs myself. I am working full-time from 7:30AM-3:30PM. I have weekends off. My schedule is flexible as long as I am notified a few days in advance. I know emergencies do happen. I will try to accommodate everyone. I am available on most holidays. I have a large outdoor kennel where the dogs love to run and play. My house inside is large and they will get plenty of love and attention.

About: Ever since I can remember, I’ve had a deep love for animals. I recently lost my golden retriever, who was truly my best friend, my sister, my soulmate. Before Sophie, I grew up with Bailey another golden for 10 wonderful years — both were such special parts of my life, especially Sophie. Caring for dogs, going on walks, playing fetch — it's something that brings me real joy. I also have experience pet sitting for family friends. While I didn’t stay at their homes, I would drop in daily to spend a few hours with their dogs over the course of a week. I'm currently working at a construction company, but being around animals is something I genuinely love, and I think this would be such a fun and fulfilling way to stay connected to that passion. I work full time, so early mornings or evenings work best. I enjoy caring for animals and make it a meaningful part of my routine. Pets are just as important as family members - making sure they’re fed, getting plenty of exercise, and the right amount of rest is key.

“Jackie did a marvelous job taking care of our very shy kitty for 12 days. She “talked “ and sang to him and was able to lure him out of hiding after only a few days. We received a video and many pictures when he realized that he might have fun with this person. Jackie also brought in our mail, watered plants and put the garbage out for two weeks. She even vacuumed the area where our cat played. We felt very comfortable having Jackie in our home and look forward to having her back in the future.”


About: I love both dogs and cats! I grew up with both and would frequently watch and care for other dogs and cats in the neighborhood. I have had two dogs of my own and currently have a cat. Love to walk and run with dogs as well! I work at a school and have plenty of flexible free time in the summer! I am always open to what works best for you! I have an outdoor balcony space.
