“Madde was fantastic! I could not imagine a better experience. She took great care of our older dog and younger pup both equally. She is kind, thorough, and extremely knowledgeable with helpful tips for our new puppy. If you are on the fence, choose Madde.”


“Amazing couple! They are great with my big dog and she absolutely love them! I feel relieved whenever they come to visit her and take her for a walk. They provide a wonderful service! Very well recommended.”


“Faith has been such a wonderful, reliable walker for our dog Baz. She was kind enough to be able to come three times a week and walk/give love to our poor little separation-anxiety-riddled dog, which I just know made his entire day. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”


“Loni has been phenomenal with our fur baby! ❤️ She’s so kind and patient as we have been learning our routines. She’s very attentive to details and committed to providing us with the best experience for our pup. :)”


About: I grew up around dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, and ducks and loved every minute of caring for them! My wife and I have a 5 year old German Shepherd/Newfie mix named Noodle and she is basically an energetic seal with how much she loves water! We love taking her on trail runs/swims/paddle boarding/hiking and would love to do the same with your furry friends! I am currently working part-time and I have plenty of time in the morning, afternoon and evening on weekdays to get your pup some exercises/play/walks/or taken care of! I love making sure that pups get lots of exercise/stimulation and play time! Going on walks and spending time in nature is how I spent most of my time and I am happy to care for your pups in the same way or however they need love!

About: I treat your furry family members like my own. From senior pet care and medication administration to daily walks and drop-ins, I provide personalized, compassionate care. Your fur baby will feel safe, loved, and right at home. I am a stay at home mom currently and have two older kiddos. I have a lot of time to dedicate to you and your furry family member. As long as I have 3 days advance notice I can make just about anything schedule wise work. In your home: I will follow any rules and requirements you may have and even happy to grab mail, or do light cleaning if needed as well while away. If your animal has a strict schedule or its more easy going no worries! what your animal needs I can make happen. In my home: I myself have a fully fenced in back yard for plenty of dog running and play. I also allow animals to roam in all the main living areas and they are allowed on furniture if they like. I keep everything covered when we have fur babies in the house. My kids are older and also any animal in the home will be loved and played with by them! they both are animal lovers. I will follow any guidelines/rules you set, eating schedules, walking schedules, etc.

“Ariel did an amazing job with my boys! My blue heeler can be finicky around new people and take time to warm up. She took time to hang out with him until he was comfortable. They are always in a good mood when they come back from their walks so I know they had a great time! Thank you, Ariel!”



About: My background includes working in veterinary medicine as well as pet sitting for most of my life. I did have a hiatus from Rover due to increased work demands but now I'm currently "retired" as a SAHM. I am comfortable caring for animals with special needs or medications, young or old. Since I'm currently a SAHM, my daily schedule simply consists of school drop-off/pick-up for my kids and an occasional grocery trip so I am very available for the pups I'm caring for. In our home, pets are allowed on furniture and get plenty of loving throughout the day from my kids. We do have a fully fenced backyard. For any care at your home, it's entirely up to you. Free run in the backyard, leashed walk around the neighborhood, crate, no crate. Just let me know! If booked for house sitting - I do *not* stay the night but will drop in 3 times throughout the day (morning, afternoon, evening).

Carolyne T.
“I can’t recommend Carolyne Tsilimos highly enough! She took amazing care of my pets while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She checked in regularly with thoughtful updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that my dogs and cat were extremely comfortable around her — they warmed up to her immediately, and that’s not always the case! Carolyne is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. I truly appreciated her communication, care, and the extra attention she gave to making sure everyone was happy and healthy. I’ll absolutely be turning to her again the next time I need a sitter!”
