About: I've been working with dogs since I was 9 years old. It started at a summer camp located at my local shelter and at home with our own dogs. At 18 I helped foster 2-week-old kittens that were born in our front yard and abandoned by their mom. I have worked with many different dogs and have been house sitting since I was 16 years old with different types of dogs and different care levels, from needing to give elderly dogs medication to hyper puppies who need lots of play time. I fit in Pet care into my daily routine by waking up at a specific time every morning to take care my own dog out for a morning potty break, then it is breakfast time, then an hour after is a morning walk, after I have lunch is a shorter afternoon walk and before dinner is an evening walk, with several potty breaks scattered reasonably every 3 hours to make sure. Sometimes I take my own dog on small hikes or to the dog park to get some more socialization in. Outside of my hobbies and schooling pet care is my life. This does depend on what I am hired for, if I am hired for potty breaks and play time then I do just that, I arrive at the home, let the dog out to go potty, take a walk play with some toys. If I am housesitting, then I follow the schedule the owners have their dogs on as to not disrupt the dog's stability.

“Reagan took great care of all FOUR of our dogs over the weekend and treated them they were her own. She communicated often so we knew they were having a great time. We can’t wait to have her come back!”

About: We work from home full-time, which means your pup will get lots of supervision, attention, companionship, and cuddles throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. Dogs staying with us typically get up to two walks a day, usually 1–2.5 mile walks at nearby trails. If your pup enjoys walks and adventures, they’re welcome to join! We also make sure dogs have plenty of supervised playtime, enrichment, rest, and individualized attention depending on their personality and energy level. We genuinely love pets and try to make them feel like part of the family while they’re here. Whether your dog is playful, cuddly, shy, energetic, or prefers a calmer environment, we do our best to adapt to their needs and routine. We're also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. We know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and we aim to create a safe, loving environment where both you and your pup feel comfortable. I have a flexible schedule to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I take my dog on walks twice a day for 1-2.5 miles in the park and typically spend the rest of the day at home, treating your babies like my own. I have a fenced yard and live walking distance from a park with wooded trails. I have a friendly pup in my home who loves having friends to play with. I will care for your pets like my own!
“Misty was great and Luna was safe and secure, happy and healthy when I arrived home. Finding a dog sitter on Memorial Day seemed like an impossible request so imagine my surprise when she accepted, arrived and did a great job. I highly recommend her!”

“Being new to the area and needing care for our three cats we decided to give Rover a try. We chose three candidates to contact. Jennifer was the first to respond. She had listed her experience which was quite extensive and agreed to meet with us to get a better feel for what we expected. She came over and did a walk thru to make sure she fully understood what was needed. Her communication and attention to detail was excellent and gave us a comfort level that we could be gone and relax knowing everything was being taken care of. If you are in need of house sitting with pets I recommend putting Jennifer at the top of your list to contact.”

“Ashlynn was very professional, on time, courteous, followed directions, and took great care of our little fur babies on the first day of being with them for ten hours. I will definitely be calling on her again. Good job.”

“Excellent! Terry was very considerate of our home and extremely accommodating with the small details and requests. Communicated regularly with text and photos. Most importantly our kids loved him. If you're looking for a house sitter you need look no further.”
“The best babysitter for my pups! They absolutely loved her. This was my first time ever leaving them or using this app and she made it so easy and gave me peace of mind. She made sure to be extra cautious with my beagles outside so they didn’t escape. You'll get constant updates and cute pics of your pups. You won’t find a better baby sitter!”

“I highly recommend Casey to care for your fur babies! We traveled out of town and she went over and beyond caring for our 16 year old Sadie. Casey is super clean and very polite. Knowing Sadie was being looked after by Casey provided such a wonderful trip to see our family. I can’t wait to have Casey come back for our next trip.”

“Eric was great! He took great care of our snuggly beagle and our home. Chester was at ease with Eric and we could tell that he got all the treats and affection to which he is deservedly entitled. We will definitely ask Eric to sit for us again on our next trip.”

“Kat was amazing! She’s not only just a cool person, but our dogs took to her immediately. We appreciate the communication while we were away - including pics of the pups lounging the day away. I will definitely book her again in the future.”
