“I cannot say enough about Gabrielle. She was just the best! She sent pics of my doggies everyday and they looked so happy. If you are looking for a great dog sitter look no further!”
“Beth was such a pleasure to have as our dog/house sitter. Our Peach was very well taken care of and Beth was great about sending us updates with pictures! I felt very comfortable with having her be the one to watch our pup as well as the house. Peach was sad to see her go but will for sure be using her again for future traveling! Highly recommended Beth! ☺️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Christina did an AMAZING job housesitting and watching our two fur children. She provided detailed information (via rover app, written notes left) and never hesitated to ask questions if she had concerns or additional questions about our dogs. She went above and beyond making sure our house was running smoothly while away for 11 days: she brought in our mail/packages, placed our garbage cans out for pickup. We will definitely use Christina again and highly recommend her!”
“Anna was such a dream. I had an unexpected delay in my flight and she was willing to stay a few extra hours to ensure my dog was taken care of helping ease the stress of the travel delay. I highly recommend her. She’s very responsive and communicates very well. Thank you for saving the day Anna!”
“Grace was attentive, friendly, professional, and thorough in her review and care for our animals (two cats and an oddball dog). She was quick to reply and clearly took the task of watching over our "kids" with a lot of care. I would highly recommend Grace for anyone's pet care needs.”
“Lambo is a sweet and cuddly dog, but she can be a bit aggressive towards other dogs while walking, so we were a little stressed to leave her while away for a wedding. Michelle really put us at ease and made sure our Bo was happy and loved while we were away!”
About: I worked at Petco while in college. I have been around animals my whole life. I have experience other cat and dog sitting. I currently have two cats of my own and love them dearly. I will treat and care for your pets just like my Own! I am also a teacher and am very responsible and respectful of your home. I am currently on summer break so I have a lot of time for you and your pets! During the school year I am available nights, weekends, and holiday breaks. I prefer to be at your home, as I am currently living with my parents and my two cats. I want to respect their space. I am very clean, organized, and respectful of others spaces.
“Erica was great! She communicated with us regularly and make us assured our 2 dogs were taken care of. There were tornados while we were gone and our dogs were very nervous. She made sure to cuddle them and make sure they felt comfortable. Erica was also very clean and our house was just as we left. We would absolutely hire Erica again.”
“Yuliia was terrific with our very quirky, anxious rescue dog and with our sweet, easy dog. She was patient with the anxious guy and didn't give up on becoming his friend. We'd definitely recommend her!”
“Amy was wonderful with our old husky. We loved getting daily dog pictures and videos from Amy while she stayed at our home for the week. She left the house spotless and we are so grateful for her care of both our dog and home. Absolutely recommend Amy!”
About: I have loved taking care of pets as long as I can remember! I’ve always been surrounded by dogs and would love to get to know and care for your furry friend! I currently work full time in the mornings. I am available to spend time with your pet in the late afternoon. Over the weekends I am very flexible! I will play with your pet, feed them, let them out on potty breaks, walk them, and do overnight stays when needed! I am flexible!
About: I have owned dogs sense I was I’d say 6, once I turned 10 I started offering family and friends to watch their animals, which included feeding, playing with, walking, bathing, grooming. I am currently not working, I am currently enrolled in online classes to become a horse trainer, so I am open pretty much always sense all my classes are set paced I don’t offer in home services but I do have a dog of my own you can request that I bring him over to play, he is house trained, but is afraid of big dogs so small dog owners only! I worked for a dog day care company so I have a wide variety of experience with dogs all ages and sizes, as well as basic training in dog first aid.
About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and have over 30 years of experience caring for them, so being with animals has always felt natural to me. I’ve looked after everything from playful puppies to gentle senior dogs who need extra patience and support. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, and I especially love going on long walks together—it’s one of the best ways to bond and keep them happy. What makes me different is how much I care—I follow their routines closely and make sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. After years in a fast-paced office role, I’m taking a break to reset and refocus after some of life’s unexpected turns. During this time, I’ve chosen to do what brings me the most peace and joy—spending time with animals. Caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine now, and I’m grateful to have the flexibility to give each dog my full attention, whether it’s for daily walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. This isn’t just a side gig—it’s something that truly fills my days with meaning and calm. When caring for pets in their own homes, I do everything I can to keep their routine familiar and stress-free. I pay close attention to their needs, respect their space, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions closely because I understand the importance of those details. I treat your home with the same respect and care I give your pet, and I always aim to build trust with both of you from day one.
“Julie took great care of our pets and our house while we were away and we came home to a clean and organized house. Julie was fantastic at keeping in touch and sending pics. Looking forward to our next trip and having Julie come stay again.”
“Ryan is the best! He’s punctual, communicative, and reliable, plus our dog absolutely loved him. He stayed at our house for a long weekend and we came back to it being in the same condition we left it in, no issues at all. He sent us pictures and let us know how Birdie was doing, he even left us a cute picture of her on our fridge. Highly recommend!”
“Sarah looked after our two cats for a week while we were away and housesat for us, so our animals wouldn't be too lonely while we were gone. One of our felines must be medicated twice a day at very specific times to avoid medical complications. Not only is Sarah confident and comfortable giving our cat his meds, she is prompt and careful when administering his twice daily pills. Knowing that made us very comfortable while we were away. In addition, Sarah's communication style was straightforward and thoughtful. She asked excellent questions and follow-up questions. And when there was an unexpected situation at our house while we were away, she handled it professionally and alerted us to what was happening. I'd highly recommend Sarah to manage petsitting and housesitting.”
