“Dani has been a great caretaker for my cat. She is present, detailed, and loving and able to care for all the details my cat needs, I’m so so grateful and I highly recommend!”


About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Right now I am not currently working. I am available anytime to take care of your loved ones. I am just a request away when you need it. I have a friendly dog for play dates. I do not have a fenced yard but I do live near a park with plenty of running room.

“Raven was definitely the perfect fit to care for our fur kids! Our pets seemed to warm to her quickly and her caring personality and professional work ethic remained obvious throughout. Both our dogs are senior gals, and Raven was wonderful in approaching them with the extra tenderness necessary. She was also great about providing daily updates, photos, and occasional videos that really helped our comfort level while gone. I’m sure related to the additional stress caused by our absence our dogs seemed to have more “accidents” than usual, which Raven not only cleaned up readily, but she also patrolled daily for further accidents or other abnormalities in the environment…she even discovered some mischief our cats had caused and sent us photos!. We are so happy to have found Raven, her compassion and professionalism is first rate, and we will not hesitate to reach out to her in the future to care for our kids!”


About: Although I’ve mostly sat for family and friends, I know I can take great care of any animal and make them feel loved and safe. As a pet owner, I tend to my animals before myself. They are with me throughout the day, and I am constantly at their aid. For your pets, I will put just the same amount of effort and time into them. I will base my personal schedule around the bookings I make on this app, including if I find work elsewhere. No matter what, I will make time for the animals I am taking care of. I tend to each animal based on their individual needs and personality. I also do my best to give them my undivided attention whenever I am with them. In a clients home, I strictly follow instructions to optimize the care I provide.

“We love having Kelsee watch our three pups! We have an older dog that requires medicine daily, a 100lbs dog, and one other younger medium size dog. All three of our dogs love Kelsee! She snuggles and plays with them and sends us pictures. She is detail oriented and all of requests were followed. We appreciate knowing we can take a family trip and know our fur babies are well taken care of!”


About: I love all animals large and small . Hobby and helping others is what I want to do !!my kids are animal lovers too. We would love and enjoy tking care if others pets and getting to know other animals. I have grown up around animals from a very small age in the country. I would like my kids to have the same experience with animals as I have had and much much more. We are a very active family and love to go for hikes, jogs, swimming sessions and other places to visit and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. We would love to see any size and shape for animals makes for a challenge to experience every day and relax in the moment to see how others live.

“Hannah clearly has a heart for animals! I had her come over for a "meet and greet" with my pup Luna who can be very timid around new people, but Luna clearly thinks Hannah is okay! We look forward to doing some doggie day care with Hannah in the future :)”


“Nicole was the first person we've had watch our dog, and wow did we pick the right person. Not only were there no issues with her checking in when scheduled, she went above and beyond to play with, take care of, and love on our dog. She is a genuine animal lover so if you want your pet not only well taken care of, but also loved while you're away, I can't recommend Nicole enough! Nicole also sent updates daily as requested along with lots of great photos and even a few videos! For my wife and I, these were wonderful and really put us at ease about the well-being of our dog while we were gone.”


About: Animals aren’t just pets, they’re family. With a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring calm, confidence, and genuine love to every visit. Whether your pup needs a high-energy hike or your shy cat needs quiet company, I adapt to their unique needs. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat your pets (and your home) with the same care I give my own. Let’s make tails wag and whiskers twitch, your animals are in good hands! Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule as a college student. I have a flexible routine and I’m looking to earn extra money doing something I love. It’s a win-win! I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment in my home, with plenty of play, routine, and attention. When caring for pets in others’ homes, I follow their routines closely, keep in touch with updates, and treat their space with respect. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s comfort and well-being always come first.


About: There will be lots of play time and walks around the neighborhood. There will be time to relax and hopefully become friends with my two dogs and myself. There will be plenty of toys to play with. There is a nice yard to run in and do laps around when you get the zoomies. I am available mainly on the weekends but feel free to message me anytime, I may have certain times available even though the day says unavailable. I have a full time job, but i do have availability in the evenings. I have a hyper active dog myself and spend a lot of time making sure she gets the exercise she needs. I play with her for hours and take her for long walks. I also have a very sleepy dog as well. He mainly helps me with the hyperactive one so she sleeps in the evening. I am able to work with all types and sizes of dogs.

About: Hi, I'm Becky (Rebecca), I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a small child and I absolutely love meeting new furry friends. I’ve been pet sitting for friends for about 10 years now and I can honestly say it’s one of the most fun things I do. I’ve trained my own dogs and my friends dogs with positive reinforcement always, treats galore! Play time is always tug of war or fetch and maybe I can teach your furry friends some new tricks while I take care of them. Potty breaks can happen as often as needed, just let me know. I am very athletic so if your pooch needs to go out on a run, I’m there for that! If you have any special needs just let me know ahead of time please. I have a pretty flexible schedule with a typical 1 hour availability in the middle of the day to come say hi to your furry friends while you're at work. My approach with any animal is that they just want to have fun, play and feel safe. I find that most animals love to cuddle with me and have a good time playing as well.

About: I am retired, ex professional, experienced in animal care, domestic, horses and exotic animals. I have done pet and house sitting in France and in the usa. I have excellent references on my website. I can give oral medication, puppies will go out every 2 hours. I have an adorable poodle who will love playing with your puppy, she is like a mother to puppies. I used to do dog rescue while living in France, and placed all dogs saved in very good homes, this was my main concern. I can read dogs body language, and dealt with traumatized dogs, among them my silver poodle, who was very traumatized by his past. I do like old dogs and have adopted some in the past. If a dog swallow something he should not have, I know how to make them throw up. I am retired, as a parent of 2 purbred miniature poodles, I spend most of my time at home, and take them out reguarly. When I have to go out, I am never gone long. I give a lots of attention to my dogs and dogs I sit. I will give the same care to your dogs and if I take them on a walk, will never let them approach a dog I don't know. the yard is fenced but will always go outside with the dogs and will take them on a leash when it's dark. I live outside cottage grove, I am very protective of my own dogs, will be with yours, too.

About: I have taken care of four-legged fur friends all of my life. From hamsters to Swiss Mountain dogs, and some non-furry and feathered friends as well. My daughter and I started in home pet sitting for friends about 5 years ago. We enjoy being able to help your fur babies stay at home and comfortable while you are away. We are familiar with keeping them to routines including feeding, walking, play and medication schedules. We have cared from puppies to elderly long-term life companions who have required oral medication administration. We love each and every one of them and their individual personalities and quirks. I currently work remote and can be there all or part of the day with your fur babies. I can perform drop in and walking services after 3:00 p.m. on weekdays with a more open schedule most weekends. I only offer services within the client's home. I like to meet and get a detailed list of schedules and pet needs. I like to have the opportunity to get to meet the pets beforehand and get a chance for us to know each other.

“Salina provided wonderful care for my sweet old man. It was very appreciated as we only just moved into the area and were worried about the stress of leaving him alone in a new place. She was very flexible and friendly. I highly recommend. :)”



“Absolutely amazing care. Amanda not only watered the plants for us but she took excellent care of our kitty Emerald. This was the first time we used a sitter from Rover and I'm happy to say if I need a sitter in the future I'll definitely just come right back to Amanda. 5 star care.”

Rebecca W.
“We hired Rebecca to dog sit our two large dogs; one middle aged and one senior grouchy pants, along with a very vintage cat. Kennels are just too hard on the dogs' nerves and home is always better. We knew right away that she was very good with dogs. She approached them on their terms, talked sweet to them, let them get used to her, and next thing we knew she was on the floor cuddling them, with Ms. Grouchy pants in her lap. We were on family vacation for two weeks across the ocean, and KNOWING "the kids" were in good hands was invaluable. We never worried about them being fed, played with and paid attention to. Highly recommend, we will use her again, she's awesome.”


elisabeth s.
“Elisabeth and I shared a residence for an extended time and she was always reliable and trustworthy. Caring for her own poodles with dedication as important as her children. Also, her time with horses contributes to her love of animals and her vibrancy encourages motivation.”


Chantal H.
“Chantal has been our dog sitter for over a year. She is FANTASTIC! We can go away and not worry about our two dogs at all. Chantal’s gentle and kind to our senior dog. She puts Gracie’s bed right next to her when she’s working at the desk and takes breaks just so Gracie can sit on her lap! She plays and entertains our younger dog and watches her carefully so she doesn’t hurt our older dog being too rambunctious. My dogs eat 3 times a day, need to go out often - they are a lot of work in many ways and Chantal does it all. She is completely reliable, very responsible and takes care of our home and dogs with love and kindness.”
