“Luie was fantastic. It was our first time using anyone from Rover but we are so happy we got Luie. Our dog is a sweetheart but is also incredibly stubborn especially when her schedule is thrown off and her pack is missing. He did great with her while we were gone. He sent lots of pictures and videos showing how happy she was. He also was very patient and calm despite a blizzard blowing through the day before we were coming back. He made sure he would be able to extend his time with our pup just in case. Luckily we were still able to come back as scheduled. Despite the snow he made sure to shovel out space and still took our dog out for walks. We are so grateful for Luie being dependable and allowing us to step away for our vacation. We look forward to using him again in the future.”

Lana P.

“She was a great sitter for my two cats! She sent me pictures and updates everyday on what they did and how they were doing. It was obvious when we returned home that my cats were well taken care of. We would definitely hire her again!”

About: With many years of hands on pet care experience, I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, medications, bathing, walking, and providing the kind of calm, attentive care that puts both pets and their owners at ease. Animals have always been a central part of my life, and every pet I care for gets treated like family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. With a flexible schedule, I'm available to give your pet consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of love throughout the day. I'm reliable, punctual, and will keep you updated with photos and check-ins so you always know your fur baby is happy and thriving. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I provide a calm, attentive environment and take time to understand each animal's unique needs and personality before care begins. I'm experienced with crating, feeding routines, leash handling, and recognizing signs of stress or illness. Pet owners can trust their babies are in experienced, caring hands.

“Faith was prompt, reliable, and genuine in her care with my fur baby. She responded to inquiries quickly and provided daily updates on my dog. Faith was respectful in leaving my home clean and as she found it. We would definitely book with Faith again!”

“This was my first time using a dog sitter and Robyn went above and beyond. Incredibly attentive and provided frequent updates. My dogs absolutely loved her. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Majiyah was amazing while I was away. I was a little hesitant at first about having a house sitter stay in my home, but she made me feel completely comfortable. She took great care of my dog and my home, and she really went above and beyond. When she thought he may have had a food allergy, she took the time to cook his food and make sure he was okay. She also took him to get a bath, picked up extra dog treats for him, and even cleaned my home before I got back. I noticed that my dog quickly became comfortable with her during her stay, which is always a positive sign. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was safe, cared for, and in good hands. I would definitely recommend Majiyah to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter!”

About: Throughout high school and now college I have sat for dogs and cats. I have taken care of many dogs, playing with them, feeding, walks and even cleaning up behind them. With cats I have played, fed, and cleaned out litter boxes. Although I have not done it officially besides friends and family, I want to help you take care of your animals just as if they were my own with love and happiness. I also have a family dog that I have taught to do tricks and helped potty train. I currently work part-time at a grocery store. Most times I work 8am to 2pm so I can take care of your animals before I go to work and after. Even if the there needs to be a drop in, I could take care during working hours as well. Every animal will be treated with love and care. I will stick to a routine that the owner may have and if crating is needed I could do so safely for both me and your pet.
