“Amie was fantastic! Our crew loves her and she went above and beyond for us during flight delays and uncertainty about when we’d get home. We highly recommend her!”


“Amanda provided good communication, asked good questions, and really paid attention to the details regarding our pet’s specific care. Amanda did a good job helping our pet stick to her regular daily routine while we were away. We are grateful!”


“Paige was exceptional - truly above & beyond. This was our first time using Rover after our previous 5-year dog sitter moved. We were anxious about leaving our two pets with someone new, especially when one of them is sometimes nervous around new friends, but Paige was loving, kind, and most of all - understanding of our beloved dogs. She asked questions to better understand the dogs & their routines, their likes and dislikes, learned about our home, and was sure to share her communication style, so we knew what to expect while we were away. Paige is loved so much by everyone in our home - she took fabulous care of the dogs, our home, and really made us feel at ease about going away. THANK YOU, PAIGE!”

“Cynthia was awesome, I never had to worry about my babies!”


“Jaronsa was fantastic! Our dog loved her from the moment she walked in the door. We felt immediately comfortable with her taking care of our animals and home while we were away. She updated us regularly on how things were going and was in touch when she had questions. I would definitely recommend her!”


“Brandon did a great job with our rambunctious Annie! Long walks and lots of fetch kept her occupied while we were away for 5 days. He stayed at the house and shoveled the walk when we got our first snow fall. Highly recommend.”


“Grace was amazing! She was able to help me out in a pinch when my other sitter wouldn’t respond! She did great working with my older dog and was able to help with administrating his medication. She kept me informed and reached out for any questions and sent me pictures while I was away. I will definitely be booking her again!”


About: I’ve taken care of many dogs both in my home and at their home. I also have cat experience in their homes. I have raised kittens, puppies, and also said goodbye to senior dogs and cats. I can handle special needs and look forward to having a great time while safely caring for your pet. I am a part time bookkeeper and realtor and work from the office and home. My kids are off to college so having more pets around is welcome and enjoyable. I also have a 24 acre farm just 10 minutes from my house and will take dogs over for play time in the 11 acre fenced area if the owner approves. I always have weeding to do there and the dogs can run along the rows of hazelnuts while I weed. My dogs love chasing moths, sniffing for critters, and simply running around. I have two friendly dogs that love to play. My home is small and full of love. I have a large farm just 10 minutes from my house with 11 acres fenced in. I love being outside with dogs and lots of walks in our beautiful area.

“Alison was wonderful! Our dog JJ appeared happy and content upon our return as did the cats. She was honest and kept us in the loop with any questions or concerns she had and managed to put up with my difficult (one person) cat! Upon leaving, she left the house clean and picked up, even doing the dishes and putting her linens in the wash along with making sure the animals were walked and all set. Couldn't ask for more!”
