“This was our first experience with Rover. Lauren made it so easy to feel comfortable leaving our senior dogs in her care. The meet and greet was such a great way to get to know each other and make her comfortable in our home and with our dogs. Lauren was great at communicating with us while we were away. She was so understanding and compassionate when our dogs required patience and some extra cleaning. We had Lauren come for 30 minute visits and it was perfect. We will definitely be using Rover and working with Lauren in the future.”


“Callie did a wonderful job caring for our three cats with drop in visits. She sent lots of pictures and videos and I really appreciated that each visit she listed the tasks that she did that we requested (litter, water, etc.). Clearly a huge animal lover and a conscientious and compassionate person. And obviously our cats loved her.”


“Hannah is amazing! She checks in on Bruno multiple times a week for me! She plays in the backyard with him and takes him in a walk. She is a great communicator and caregiver for my pup!”



“Ray is the man!! He was great with both my cat and my silly lab. Being an ocean away from home was worrisome, but Ray made it easier on all of us, by keeping my fur-babies well cared for, and keeping me and my family aware of how they were doing. I have nothing I can say, but thank you!! =)”


“We reached out to Beth in the hopes of finding someone to bring our crazy dood to our wedding so we could have him in our pictures, after being turned down by multiple people for him being “too big” (65 pound goldendoodle) anyways! not only did our boy love her from the moment he saw her but so did we! After pictures she even took our boy for a pup cup and sent us the cutest pictures the entire time. We 100% will hire her again in the future!”


“Wonderful!! My pets and I, loved Sheila!! She is trustworthy, and conscientious, and took excellent care of my pets!! She sent me updates, and pictures, was very attentive and my pets loved her, So grateful for getting her for my sitter when the first one cancelled! I am relieved that I now have someone I can trust 100% when I need a pet sitter?????????”


“Sarah has pet/house sat for us for several years. She is reliable and helpful. When our power went out, she made sure our appliances were unplugged so a surge wouldn't fry them. She always makes sure the cats are happy, and is communicative in every aspect. We're so glad we found her!”


“I had a wonderful experience with Shaune M. while she cared for my two cats, Darcy and Eliza. She was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with—both during the booking process and throughout my trip. I truly appreciated the frequent updates and adorable photos she sent, which helped me relax knowing my girls were in good hands. It was clear she took great care of them, and I came home to two happy, well-looked-after cats. Highly recommend!”


“You will not find a better cat sitter than Amber! She gives our pets so much love and attention. I cannot say enough about how helpful and thoughtful she is. Amber always goes above and beyond for us!”


About: I have lived on a farm all my life with pigs, cows, sheep, rabbits and poultry and I have a dog of my own, and 2 cats also. I love to play and snuggle with them and I have been told before I am like the animal whisper and have this nurturing effect with any and all animals of various temperaments. I am a high energy person, but I can also be mellow and adjust well to any breed or any activity level. I have delt with puppies and elder animals of many species. I have no problem walking with your loved pet. I will make sure to make sure pets are treated like one of my own. It would be as if you and your family never left. I’m primarily available on weekends and occasionally during the week, depending on my work schedule, which can be flexible most of the time. My husband also works from home and helps care for our pets when I’m away, so he’s available to assist with pet care during longer stays or daytime needs. Together, we ensure that your pets are never left without attention and care. If you’re planning a trip or need a sitter during the week, feel free to reach out—I’ll do my best to accommodate! At home, our pets are truly part of the family. We have a semi-fenced yard and a 30-foot tie-out that allows for safe outdoor time and supervised play. Our dogs are fed twice a day, enjoy afternoon playtime, and go for evening walks to stay active and happy. We also have two indoor cats, Oliver and Nala, who are both well-adjusted to sharing their space with dogs. Oliver is curious and enjoys joining us on walks in his pet stroller. He loves the sights and sounds of the outdoors! Nala, on the other hand, prefers the comfort of staying indoors, and we fully respect her boundaries. We never force our animals to do anything they’re uncomfortable with and always tailor our care to meet each pet’s unique personality and needs. Visiting pets will receive the same thoughtful, loving care just like one of our own!

About: With 15+ years of experience caring for pets, including dogs, cats, and bunnies, I provide loving, attentive, and reliable care tailored to every pet’s needs. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of play time. I’m available on the weekends with a week notice, and weekday after 2pm! I have a large fenced yard, two 10 yr old small dogs and a 14 year old lab mix, AND a 8yr old cat that likes to keep his distance and observe. Your pet will feel right at home with our friendly hosts!

About: I’ve had dogs of my own since I was born, they are family and truly mean so much to me, I enjoy my time with all animals. Looking for a job that will allow me to have time to study for school as well. Also, will allow me to get my daily steps in with your fur babies. It would be very helpful if you let me know what your dog likes to play with, what times they eat, etc so we can make sure there having the best time.

About: I have had pets for a long time. I love them as my family members, I enjoy taking care of them, and I share my passion with them. Your dog would be treated like my friends and family. I will walk, run and, sit with them. No matter if they are puppy or senior. They will be fed, cleaned, and taken care of. I am a university educated, easy going, trustful, and responsible person. These days I am writing my dissertation as a Ph.D. student. Therefore, my schedule is pretty much flexible especially in afternoons after 4 pm till 10 and during weekends or holidays. In case you need my service in emergency, I will be glad to help you. Contact me any time. Would love to meet you and your lovely dog.
