“Angelly was a hit with my pups. She was on time, respectful of my home and sent a lot of update photos while I was gone. I highly recommend Angelly!”
2. Corbyn G.
“We have a true mini farm - chickens, dog and a cat - and Corbyn took great care of them for a week! Excellent communication, fun photos, and asked questions when something wasn’t clear. We have had a few bad experiences with pet sitters, and it’s such a relief to know that Corbyn has experience caring for all kinds of fluffy and fury friends. Highly recommend!”
3. Savannah L.
“Savannah and her roommate, Servetka, were amazing! They took such good care of my dogs and our home. They sent me pictures of my babies and responded quickly with updates on who would be hanging out with my doggies. They tidied up my home and even did the dishes. 5/5 and I will definitely be requesting their services again!”
4. Catherine B.
“iPad to get a new dog sitter and was very nervous about it. I met with Cathy twice before her starting and was impressed with our meet and greet. She was incredibly wonderful with my 3 dogs. My neighbors even texted me saying what a great person I had gotten. They had met her out in the yard and saw how she took care of my little ones. She did above and beyond with extra things she did for me. She is truly a great person and my one dog who is very timid warmed up to her very quickly. Anyone needing a sitter she is the best. I’m a very picky person and have no issues at all with Cathy. You would be very lucky to get her.”
5. Isabelle P.
“I highly recommend Isabelle for Rover. Every little creature she interacts with loves her. Her calm and caring demeanor with animals and people alike makes her an excellent choice for Rover. You could be certain she would care for your pets as you would. She is an experienced dog walker as she has cared for the animals for several families.”
6. Abigail N.
“Abby was amazing! She checked in daily and I was never worried that the pets were in good hands. She was very responsive via text. She even took our leash reactive pup on multiple walks, despite us not requiring it and Macy needing extra assistance during the walks. I would book Abby again in a heartbeat.”
7. Lexi B.
About: I have experience with all kinds of pets. From reptiles, felines, and mixed breed pups, to Pit Bulls and German Shepherds. I love them all 🫶🏾 I work from home for a minimal contact tech company. After my little ones leave for school at 7:30 AM, my schedule is completely flexible. We miss having fur babies around and will treat them as part of our family. I have mild mannered boys 7 and 5 that love nature and animals.
8. Erica J.
“Erica loves animals and Luna loves people so I was comforted by several updates with pictures. Luna was happy. And Erica took her to the coffee shop for a pup cup! Luna knows her way around the drive thru circuit for milk bones and ice cream 😉 But the real drama was calling her at the last minute and she was able to take care of Luna during a holiday. Another sitter on Rover was booked but recommended Erica and you know the rest of the story. Luna was happy when I came home ❤️ Thanks again Erica!”
9. Taylor H.
About: I grew up on a farm in Wisconsin and taking care of animals ever since I can remember! I have an emotional service animal named Bella who is a chihuahua (I will not bring her when caring for your animal for safety). I know how special and important pets are and I would love to care for your pets when needed! I am a college student and my schedule is very flexible. I can do mornings, late nights, or check ins/walks during the day. The weekends are more flexible for me! As an owner of an emotional support animal, I have experience in crate training. I have experience with babysitting and house sitting and will treat your home and pets with respect and kindness!
10. Danielle D.
About: I am a proud mother of a 4yr old son and an 10 yr old daughter.. My daughter is usually at school for most of the day. However, caring for both full time I have come to notice animals stimulate both kids and teach them respect, responsibility and routine. We are excited to em"bark" on this new chapter in life and cant wait to start. Together, I believe all 3 of my family unit would not only love, but sincerely enjoy even the smallest and largest pets while their 'parents' are away or just need some attention. With summer upon us - my schedule (and helping hands) have become more flexible. Currently, I am available every day from 6am to 7pm. Holidays, weekends, and every day that ends in "Y"! With respect to the pet , clients home, and specific care needs, I try to always keep an open mind and heart but keeping respect in the foreground.
11. Madison W.
“Madison was great with Edgar! She listened about his needs, and sent us lots of pupdates! He can be a little shy at first, but she loved on him right away and they were instant best friends! Will definitely be using her more in the future!”
12. Anaudia W.
“Anaudia is an amazing sitter for my pet. She goes over and beyond to make sure Marley is taken care of. She is loving, caring, and very responsible. She’s also flexible and has been able to tend to her when I have called her last minute. I would recommend her to anyone.”
13. Cheyenne B.
“Cheyenne is always great with our dogs! She’s responsible, thoughtful ,and communicative.”
14. Jeremiah M.
“JEremiah could not have been more attentive to updating us continuously. We will more than happy and feel confident that our dog will be well care for in the future.”
15. Madison T.
“Madie was amazing. We had a last minute conflict with our dog sitter and she came to the rescue. It was our first time using someone who was not family watching her. She came to our house on Thanksgiving to do a meet and greet which greatly decreased our hesitation about using someone else to watch our fur baby. Madie went above and beyond what we could have asked for. She was professional and extremely kind. She cared for Stella as if she were her own. We will definitely be using her again! Cannot recommend her enough.”
16. Haley D.
About: I have had experience with animals pretty much my entire life. From my great grandparents all the way down to my cousins and myself, we all have an enormous amount of love for any animal that we are lucky enough to have as a part of our family. I get the privilege of having two pups at home and they are my babies ❤️ As of right now, I’m working full time at DMH. My schedule starts Sunday nights at 6 pm and ends Wednesday mornings at 6 am. I work (Sunday,Monday,& Tuesday) 12 hour shifts, so anything within those 3 days would be harder to accommodate your furry family members! I have 2 pups at home, Shiloh and Missy. They are both Siberian Huskies and love to run and play! We go on 2-6 mile walks every day that I’m not working! I currently am not working so my schedule is very flexible. I’m in school but it’s all online so that also won’t be a problem. I treat other people’s animals the same way that I would want someone to treat my animals. I love all animals and treat them like family.
17. Brooklynn L.
“Highly recommend! Brooklynn went above and beyond for my poodles when she was taking care of them! You can tell she really just loves animals. Reasonable prices, professional, and your pets will love her!”
18. Ben O.
“Ben did a great job House sitting with our two pups for a long weekend. He sent lots of photos to let us see how they were doing and they were happy and healthy upon our return. And the house was exactly as we left it. We’ll definitely use Ben again when we travel!”
19. Heather E.
“Heather has done an excellent job for us! She is reliable and our dog is so happy when she helps us out. Heather will send multiple texts and pics throughout the day. She will call or text with questions which I truly appreciate. Our home is always spotless when we return and our dog is happy and relaxed. Thank you Heather!”
