“Maddie was great with our dog Sophie. She kept her entertained with many walks and other outdoor activities. She sent lots of photos to keep us up to date. We came home to a very happy dog. Thanks Maddie”


“Kinan goes above and beyond as both a sitter and dog walker. He takes exceptional care of my German Shepherd, Zara, and it’s clear how much he genuinely loves animals. As a house sitter, he’s the best I’ve ever had—he left my home spotless, was so respectful of our space, and spent so much quality time with my girl while I was away. I can’t recommend him enough—10/10!”


“Aaron is wonderful! He is very sweet and caring to our 14 year old lab, and took our rambunctious young boxer on long hikes. He kept us updated throughout the 'tour of duty' and left the house absolutely spotless. We would definitely ask him to care for our boys again.”


“Sarah was such an incredible sitter for my dogs! I was very worried because they tend to be anxious when I leave and they have quirks but they fell in love with Sarah! I felt completely at ease for my whole 9 day trip. I received daily updates and pictures. It was such a relief to know they settled right in and felt comfortable while I was away. She even went above and beyond and made sure my house was clean and cozy when I returned. 10/10 would recommend Sarah for any pet needs. Thank you so much! I Will definitely book again in the future. 🥰”


“Maxwell was an absolute pleasure. He was super prompt, communicative, sent great photos/videos of our pups while we were away, and put my mind at total ease. I would absolutely have him back to take care of our two dogs again and would recommend to anybody!”


About: I have been caring for animals since I was 11 years old; including family, friends, neighbors and referrals. I grew up in a family that always had pets and have lived with others with pets as well. I am very comfortable and knowledgeable of animals of many ages and types. I have assisted with puppy training and working on commands and discipline and also cared for senior dogs who need extra attention and assistance. I am currently attending nursing school ~3-4 days/week and have availability in the evenings, weekends and some days to assist with pet care needs. My schedule is flexible outside of clinical hours and am excited to spend time with your animals and assist with your needs. I am available for short check-ins, walks, overnights, and weekends you are away. My ideal setting for pet care would be at a client's home due to already having one at home. I am open to caring for pets at my home once we have determined that our animals would be comfortable with one another and get along well! My house has a fenced in yard with lots of space for activity and play time for your pets. I have experience with house sitting and dog sitting concurrently whether for a few hours, few days or weeks. I am respectful, clean and responsible and follow instructions and client preferences.

“Evan took great care of our 3 year old pointer while we were away for the weekend. He was very thoughtful about letting her get used to him and feel comfortable and made sure she had regular walks. Evan sent us plenty of updates and photos and he was very respectful of our house and left it spotless. We will definitely be booking Evan again and highly recommend him.”


“Jessica took great care of our pup. She clearly has a lot of knowledge and familiarity with dogs and we felt very comfortable leaving town knowing she was taking care of our 9 month old puppy. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”


About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and often cared for neighbors' pets when they were away. I no longer have pets of my own, so I love to spend time with friends' pets and take their dogs on adventures. They always come back tired and happy! I've cared for animals with special dietary and medicinal needs, and I'm good at making friends with shy animals. I would love to meet your pet! I work Monday through Friday, 7am to 3pm. Unfortunately I am unable to visit your pet in the middle of these hours, so if they can't be alone for 8-9 hours, i encourage you to look for a sitter who better fits your needs. Sorry for the inconvenience! I can't bring your pet to my home due to my roommates' 3 cats, but I am happy to make sure your pet can maintain their normal routine in your home, so they can stay fit, happy, and healthy.

“Mariah was absolutely amazing. This was our first time hiring a rover to watch our dog at our place so naturally we were a little anxious but we are SO happy we found Mariah. She sent us regular updates, took Tommy out several times a day and even cleaned up the house a little before we got back. She was so respectful and kind. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was here taking care of things. We will 1000% be calling Mariah next time we travel! Thanks again!”


“Carolines communication was perfect, which is important when dealing with our two big fur babies! She showed up on time, took great care of them, and the house was kept clean! Highly recommend!”


“This was my first time leaving my babes for an extended period of time with a dog sitter and I am thoroughly impressed with Laura! She was very nice and patient with my high maintenance pack - of 2 dogs- 1 who can be reactive, 1 with hip issues that needs additional supplements and meds , 1 foster dog also on meds, and 3 cats! She loved them as if they were her own and I don’t think they even realized we were gone with how pampered they were with her there! She even took them each dog on their own seperate walks! She sent lots of updates and was super understanding of me being a crazy furmom! The house was also so clean when we came home - which was greatly appreciated after a long day of traveling! We will definitely be using her again!! Thanks again Laura - the pups already miss you!”


“Annika helped me in a last-minute pinch and was so amazing with my 2 dogs! She was communicative, flexible, confident with my dogs, asked great questions when she first met them, and was overall wonderful to work with. I would 100% book with her again!”


“Annette is highly professional, and I could not be more thankful to have her to watch my kitty. Annette stepped up very last minute, and I knew immediately that she would be the perfect sitter. She was excellent with communication, very caring and loving, and I felt completely comfortable having her stay in my home. My heart was warmed with updates and photos of Del while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Annette to other pet parents.”

Brendan K.
“I had the pleasure of having Brendan Ketchan pet-sit my 14-year-old Australian Blue Heeler, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the care he provided. From the moment I met him, I felt reassured by his genuine love for animals and his experience with dogs of all ages. He took the time to get to know my dog’s needs, ensuring she was comfortable and well-cared for during my absence. Brendan kept me updated with photos and messages, so I never had to worry about my dog’s well-being. He was attentive to her medical needs, taking extra care to ensure she received her medication on time and making sure she stayed active but not overexerted. His calm and patient demeanor was exactly what my senior dog needed, and I could tell she enjoyed his company. I would highly recommend Brendan to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and caring pet sitter. His professionalism and passion for animals truly set him apart, and I’m grateful to have found someone who treats my dog like family.”
