“Jenna has taken great care of our two dogs a few times now. I can always depend on her to be there for the boys. Sense updates when she can, and always leaves our house looking the way it was. Highly recommend”

“Anna was excellent with our fur baby while we were on an extended vacation. She stayed in our home and was very respectful during her stay. Our doggie is disabled and needs a bit more care which Anna provided.”

About: Skills include: medication application, IV fluids, walking, playing, vet appointments, pregnancy assistance in birth, feeding, cleaning, bathing and most importantly cuddles! (Cuddles with consent of course) I have a remote job that doesn’t take up a lot of time so I am usually available and I have a love and passion for caring for animals and pets! I love animals and I had a cat named Precious for 18 years. I got a job at a vet hospital not only because I loved pets but because it was best for Precious. I was able to give her the best quality of life through my job and she sadly passed away in 2025. She was my special girl and I am ready to start caring for animals again. They matter a lot to me and I can’t bring myself to get another cat so I figured all the love and care I have in my heart, I should use it for good and help others in taking care of their precious babies. I’ve learned a lot while working at a vet hospital as well.

About: I've taken care of pets from dogs to lizards since I was 12, and have been doing drop-ins and house-sitting for family, friends, and my community for as long as I've been able to drive. I'm able to give meds for older dogs with more needs, and have trained my own dogs well in obedience training, so I have plenty of experience with a firm voice for more unruly dogs that need a little extra attention. I'm good with all animals (even the wild ones), and have experience caring for animals that need to stay separated, and am willing and able to adapt to any family I need. I currently am between jobs, the only duty I have is taking care of my own pets (amd occasionally younger siblings) so I have plenty of time to look after and care for pets I have a gentle hand and a firm voice, and have experience with obedience-training dogs particularly, and have faith in my ability to care for even the more unruly of pets. I am comfortable with crate-training and crate-trained dogs, as well as shutting them in their own room when no one is present in the home. I also have good leash experience, so walks would be easy and comfortable for me.
“Barbara was truly wonderful! Everything about our experience with her was perfect. We had a lovely meet and greet where she came to our house and met our two dogs, who instantly loved her! She stayed with them for four days/nights while we were away. Talk about going above and beyond the call of duty! Gus is a very old, enormous Rottweiler who needs help getting up from the floor. Barbara was totally willing to help this dignified old guy up, and also guiding him outside (he is deaf and partially blind). I could see that Gus felt very safe and comfortable with her, which is not the case with everyone since he feels very vulnerable now in his elder years. And our youngster Sammy who is a bundle of energy, was ecstatic to have a new friend who would play with him. Unfortunately Sammy had a bad tummy during the weekend, and Barbara was up with him several nights, making sure he was comfortable and taking him out for frequent relief walks. During my time away Barbara sent pictures and updates throughout the day to put my mind at ease. This was my first time leaving my precious fur babies with anyone other than a family member, and I was nervous, but Barbara did everything she could to make this a very special experience for all of us. When I came back, both dogs were totally bonded with Barbara and Sammy especially did not want her to leave! We will definitely be using Barbara’s services again!”
“Mia was so great! She sent us pics and our dogs were definitely well taken care of. She had great communication and was just super easy to work with. I would highly recommend her!”
“Trevor did exactly as asked, gave us some photo updates of our pups and kept the house tidy. Would absolutely use again if needed for a Friday-Monday out of town need!”


“Rodney came to my rescue! Recently I had to go to the ER during the night and I was worried about who would take care of my dogs in the morning. I was able to contact him around 7:00 a.m. so he could come over and take care of the dogs. Potentially it could have been an overnight, but that wasn't needed. It was so wonderful to know that my dogs would be well cared for before and after my return home! Usually he just comes for a drop-in visit every other week, but this required more visits. The dogs are still getting used to him, but he works very hard to get them to trust him and it is paying off. Thank you, Rodney!”

About: A lifelong love of animals and professional experience caring for them, including running a kennel/cattery for nearly six years, fostering dogs, and providing in-home pet (and farm) sitting. I work a full-time day job, but I'm free evenings, weekends, and holidays. Exceptions are on a case-by-case basis with advanced noticed of at least three business days. I am willing to stay overnight with your pet. I’m comfortable caring for pets with all kinds of personalities and needs, including providing baths, medications, playtime, special feeding, and plenty of companionship. I understand that every pet has their own routine and temperament, and I take the time to get to know each one. Strong preference for smoke-free homes.
“Tiffany was amazing with our two huskies. Her experience in animal welfare and with the breed gave me so much peace of mind. She followed the instructions I left for her to care for our babies perfectly and we came back to two happy dogs. She also sent a lot of cute pics and plenty of detailed updates! Thank you so much Tiffany, we will definitely be booking with you again:) Highly recommend!”

About: I have personal experience from caring for my own dog, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and maintaining a consistent routine. I understand how important it is to provide pets with patience, attention, and plenty of love. Pet care fits naturally into my routine through caring for my own dog. I’m available to provide attentive care around my work schedule, especially on weekends. I will follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and medications if needed. I’ll provide plenty of attention and companionship while keeping their home clean, safe, and respected.

About: I love helping people and if that means caring for their fur babies while they’re gone, then I’m more than happy to help! I’m always the first person my friends/family call when they need a sitter! I work at a dental office so I have more than enough time after work to care for pets! I will be in school starting the end of August so I’ll have even more time! I have 2 cats that are strictly indoor. They are fed Costco rotisserie chicken every morning and dry food in the evening. I also take them on walks in their backpack as long as the weather is nice.
“Halley was awesome! Super responsive and very kind. She treated our house with respect and our little beagle was a happy fella when we got home! Hoping to stay in touch with Halley for our dog sitting!”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and currently have two cats of my own & previously owned a medium sized dog.

I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! I work mornings and am typically off by noon, so I have plenty of availability for pet care in the afternoons and evenings. I occasionally have afternoon appointments, but my schedule is flexible and I’ll always communicate my availability in advance. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of your home, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of care, attention, and love while you’re away.

“Clara was more than wonderful and so kind and caring with our corgi Francis, who suffers with Degenerative Myelopathy and has special needs. We knew from our Meet & Greet when Francis immediately responded to her that they would enjoy their time together. We felt more than comfortable leaving him with Clara and knew that if there was ever an emergency, she would handle it with the utmost professionalism and care. Clara's training and experiences makes her excellent in working with all kinds of animals. She was punctual and asked key questions about Francis' needs and what was required during her visit. We would give her the highest rating of any of the excellent Rover sitters we have used. We hope to be able to have her sit with Francis again soon.”

She took very good care of my dog well I was out of town and sent plenty of pictures and updates as well. She took the time to get to know me and my dog at the meet and greet and it eased my mind immensely. Since this was the first time I have let someone I didn’t know watch my dog.I will definitely book with her in the future.

Tiffany was amazing with our two huskies. Her experience in animal welfare and with the breed gave me so much peace of mind. She followed the instructions I left for her to care for our babies perfectly and we came back to two happy dogs. She also sent a lot of cute pics and plenty of detailed updates! Thank you so much Tiffany, we will definitely be booking with you again:) Highly recommend!

Leah took such wonderful care of our elderly cat and dog for 6 days. Our animals love attention and need human interaction. Leah spent so much time with them and took such great pictures of them while we were away. The animals were so happy and we couldn’t be more pleased with her service. She followed feeding instructions perfectly and made our animals feel so loved. We definitely recommend Leah and will use her again in the future.

I could not have asked for a better dog sitter!!! She went above and beyond with the care she provided to my baby!!! From the moment I met her at our meet and greet, it was evident how knowledgeable and experienced she is with pet care. She didn’t bat an eye at the extra care Luna needs for some health issues and she was comfortable administering Luna’s medicine. I had complete peace of mind while I was out of town with the many updates, pictures, and even videos Ashley would send to me!! I cannot recommend her enough!!! I will definitely be using her again! Thank you Ashley!!!

Courtney is highly recommended! She’s wonderful with my girls and takes great care of them! She’s able to travel a bit from her home and is able to work from your home so just ideal for a pet sitter! The girls and I would be lost without her! She’s GREAT and we love her lots!

Thank goodness we found Kynleigh when we did! Kynleigh went above and beyond to make our five year old, often a handful, labradoodle, comfortable (and happy :) while we were gone. She sent pictures and videos every day and we even came home to a clean home and sheets-- thank you, Kynleigh! We will be using her next time and feel fortunate we now can!
