She did a fantastic job taking care of my dogs and kept me updated on them as well. No complaint from us. I know who I go to for future trips.

The perfect sitters! I’ve relied on them for walkies and letting my cutie out to the yard on ky days away from the house and I’ve never questioned their professionalism.

Bridget did such a great job with our girls! One of our kitties is shy and skittish around anyone new, but she had a great way of helping her feel safe and comfortable! Bridget was very responsive and sent us pictures and videos while we were away making us feel comfortable that they were in good hands. We were so lucky to have found her - especially on such short notice. She responded right away to our need for a pet sitter and we couldn’t be more happy with her!

Raina is always thoughtful, thorough, and amazing with my two kitties and is always very responsive to any questions I may have! They both needed different medications daily while I was away and Raina gave me complete peace about their well-being and adherence to the daily meds. She’s my most trusted pet sitter, and I’m so appreciative of the extra steps she takes like grabbing the mail or bringing packages in. She’s amazing!

About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs most of my life and truly love it. Friends, family, and neighbors rely on me to help with walking, feeding, and spending quality time with their pets. I’m dependable, patient, and pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs. Whether your dog loves to play or just wants cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I'm available for house sitting /boarding on weekends and weeknights after 2PM with some flexibility depending on your needs. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will get lots of love, playtime, and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs to keep your pet company. I always supervise interactions and can separate or crate dogs if needed to ensure everyone feels safe. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly so your dog feels comfortable and cared for.

Brittany showed up every day as scheduled and took care of the cat boxes, filling the food/water, taking care of our plants and even filling/cleaning our hummingbird feeders. She also included play time for those cats not to shy to come out and greet her. I will definitely use her again for my next vacation!

I couldn’t have found someone better than Jordan. I am new to the city and I was leaving town for a few days. I had thought about daycare and I tried one day, but my dog didn’t really seem to like it much and the thought of having her there all day made me anxious because she wouldn’t be in the comfort of her own home. I decided to give Rover a shot and found Jordan. We did a meet and greet and he ended up staying for an hour playing with my dog and telling me a bit about himself. I could tell he is genuine and cares about helping people and loves animals. He took great care of pepita while I was gone and was able to relive me of the stress of leaving her with a stranger. I I will continue to use Jordan on a weekly basis just so Pepita can see her new friend.

Madison is great! Super responsive, very professional and great with my cats! She made time to come over prior to my time away to meet the cats and get to know our space and routine. She somehow got them out of hiding on the first day and got the to play with her, which isn’t a typical response from them with new people.

Carrie did a wonderful job with her visits throughout the holiday weekend. She gave my needy Julius plenty of attention and managed to make somewhat friends with my very aloof Olive. Of course she was feeding her - ha ha. I would recommend Carrie and would book again!

We found out last weekend that I would be having a c section this past Monday. Right away I messaged Alyssa to see if she would be available to do some drop ins on our two dogs and luckily she was! Alyssa is always so communicative, shares lots of pics, and shows our pups so much love. We will continue to have her watch our fur babes in the future for sure!

About: I grew up with a dog, who became my biggest inspiration for working with animals for a living. Currently, I have 3 cats and work as a kennel attendant in my college town. I have worked with many disabled animals, helping them go outside or get comfortable. I have also worked with very young animals who need a little extra patience sometimes. I always pay attention to the animal's individual needs and do my absolute best to accommodate for them. In the past I interned with a groomer who taught me many behavioral signs of dogs and tricks to make them more comfortable if need be. I have also done a lot of research of my own for the behaviors of cats in order to understand my own. I'm currently home for the summer from college and am needing a job that's flexible, but also something that I still love. Since I'm home I will have all the time for all the pets' needs. When I care for an animal I start by giving them lovings, if they are willing to be pet. I will then pick up after them, walk them or scoop their litter, feed them, and of course before I can leave, play with them. Most of all before I do anything else, I double and triple check to see their instructions. Especially if they have any special instructions, I will switch my routine accordingly.

About: I’m a SAHM to an almost 2 year old. We have time to spend with your animals and make sure they’re well loved and cared for . My son has been around animals and I’ve taught him to be gentle and would never leave your pet unattended. We also love taking them for walks or playing outside with them. I’m a SAHM mom to an 1 year old boy who loves animals . I’m available any time of day usually and try to spend an hour or two with the dog or cat at a time so they’re not lonely . I only care for animals in other peoples homes . I can do drop ins and if I’m house sitting for you I’ll spend a good bit of time with your animals . If I’m doing a drop in it will be for about an hour each time . If you’re worried about my son I can also bring a play pen for him

Brittney was awesome again! This is the second time we have had her take care of our cats while on vacation. She makes sure on each visit to clean boxes, refill food/water bowls and give one of them medication. Brittney is very dependable and I would highly recommend her for your pets.
