3. Katee E.
About: Hi my name is Katee. I love animals and I’ve owned dogs on and off my entire life so I’m very experienced in their care. I’ve dealt with dogs of all different breeds, ages and sizes. I’d be happy to help you out whether you’re on vacation or just need help while you are at work. I’m available Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday mornings and afternoons. If you need any help at other times I can work hard to accommodate you. I can also house sit for houses with other animals such as cats or birds if needed. I’m available for walks rain or shine so don’t hesitate to book. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog! I hope to hear from you soon! I have mostly flexible hours during the week as right now I only have prior commitments on Tuesday and Thursday from 12:00-4:30. Any other time I am happy to accommodate you and your furry friend! The most important part of pet sitting is to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable. My goal is to minimize disruption to their usual life and routine and keep your pet happy and healthy.

“Bridget is the best cat sitter I have ever had. I’ve used her services multiple times now for various length trips. Every time it has been amazing! She is very attentive, respectful, and always sends updates with photos of my fur babies. I know they are being fully cared for when Bridget is taking care of them.”

6. Mae S.

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Mae! She went above and beyond while dog sitting and walking my dogs. Not only did she take exceptional care of them, but she also took the time to wash their bedding and even my couch cover. Mae stayed longer than expected, giving my dogs plenty of love and attention, which I truly appreciated. When she was done, she left me a thoughtful note detailing her time with them, which made me feel even more confident in her care. Mae was extremely professional, easy to work with, and clearly has a passion for animals. Knowing my dogs were in such great hands gave me so much peace of mind. She’s a 10/10, and I’ll absolutely be using her services again! Highly recommend!”


7. Cassandra B.

“This was the first time we used Rover. Cassie was excellent and made us feel that she was the right person to take care of our babies. Although they are sweet, they are a handful sometimes when they have to be taken out for walks. The spaniel in them tends to dominate the walks. She was so sweet and sent pictures and videos and made us feel at ease.”

“I was really nervous about leaving my dog and 2 cats, however Haley and Quinn were very responsive to my calls and requests. They are Amazing.

When we arrived home, the animals were happy and healthy and our home was well taken care of We would recommend Haley and Quinn to everyone.”

We were immediately put at ease seeing how comfortable she was with them, we have a black lab and a corgi mix. She sent us picture and text updates and overall made our weekend at the beach so stress free knowing our dogs were in good hands!”

17. Ellia W.
About: Hello, I’m Ellia! I work full-time as a surgical assistant, but my heart has always been with animals. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of pets, from big and small dogs to cats and exotic animals. I cared for my beloved ferrets for six years before they passed and now share my home with my boa constrictor, Slipknot. I was raised with Rottweilers and currently have a German Shepherd and Cane Corso in my family. One of my favorite experiences was rescuing a lost German Shepherd, getting them safely into my car, and reuniting them with their owner. So, evidently I’m very comfortable with large breeds—but I also have a soft spot for small dogs! Beyond personal pet care, I briefly volunteered at a wildlife rehabilitation center, working with baby birds, squirrels, opossums, and more. Whether your pet is big, small, or fluffy, I provide attentive, compassionate care for their unique needs. I’d love to meet your furry friend and be an additional hand of help for any loving pet parent out there! I work full-time from 8 AM to 5 PM but have weekends off and half-days on Fridays. My schedule is relatively flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate special requests whenever possible—just let me know what you need! I care for your pets as if they were my own! Their safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priorities. I follow all instructions and preferences you provide because no one knows your pet better than you. My goal is to be a reliable, loving extension of your care whenever you’re away.


18. Emily B.

“Emily is great! She communicated with me while I was away and made sure to respond to my questions in a timely manner. She did a great job with the animals and left our home spotless. I would definitely book her again!”


19. Cameron F.
“Cameron did a fantastic job taking care of both my home and my tiny fury overlords! He took the time to get to know them, and I swear I think they were disappointed when I came back and Cameron left. 🤷🏼♂️ Will 100% be hiring him again for my upcoming trips.”


20. Maggie L.

“Maggie was GREAT. We first connected in the late afternoon of the day before Maggie was to start sitting. Even though Maggie lives far away, she agreed to make the long drive that night, so that we could have a meet and greet. At the meet and greet at 9pm, Maggie picked up very quickly on all of the dog’s routines, and what I expected. She also explained to me when she would be coming and going. Once she was here, she communicated with me regularly throughout her 6 day stay here. Throughout my vacation I was totally confident that Maggie was taking great care of my dogs and house. She even took good care of my outdoor plants. I will definitely have Maggie care for my dogs again. I recommend her highly. She was GREAT.”
