“Melissa was great! She was the first pet sitter we had outside of family and she put our minds at ease with lots of pictures. She was punctual, cleaned up after herself, knowledgeable about animals and most importantly, loved on our animals like they were her own. We’ll definitely hire Melissa again in the future.”



“Lauren was very responsive to messages and flexible. She was as on time and stuck with the schedule we discussed for a weeks long house sot. Most of all she was very attentive with our 3 dogs who just want someone to snuggle with. We will definitely be having her back in the future stay/help with our dogs.”


About: I have been around dogs my whole life. Growing up my family had loving but sassy golden retriever, she was so nurturing and maternal we nicknamed her Nanny Girl. She always groomed and watched over us kids but also our cats lol! I then was blessed to spend 12 wonderfully sweet years with my black lab. He was such a spunky, funny pup and grew into the sweetest, most gentle little old man. I miss him terribly, but I am not quite ready to get another dog. I frequently dog/cat sit for family and friends and I still have boxes of toys left for your pup to play with. I remember the stress and worry of leaving your fur baby behind and in the care of someone else when going on vacation. I can promise you that I will love and spoil your fur baby as if they were my own. I work from home full time so I will be with your dog all day (with the exception of a possible quick errand). I can accommodate any needs that your dog has. If they are high energy I am very familiar with lots of parks, trails and dog parks in the area to run and play and get all that energy out. If they have slowed down a bit I have a comfy couch and lots of blankets to snuggle up with and toys to play at their pace with. I work remotely, so I am able to be with your pet all day. We can go out for walks frequently or if medication needs to be administered throughout the day I am available to do that. I am very clean and am overly cautious when taking pups outside. I always make sure they are on their leash securely and stay alert for things going on around us.

About: I have owned dogs and cats all of my life. They definitely play an important part of my existance. I live in an area that has lots of room for a dog to get exercise. I spend much of my time outside with my pets near my side. It is important to me that any pet I am taking care of knows that they are very special to me. Your pet will become as fond of me as they are of their owners. I have spent times watching dogs and cats in their homes. I make sure that they are not missing their masters by spending extra time playing and walking them during my visits, whether it is a day visit or weekend visit. I just love our fur pals. I only work part time. My husband is home until 1:00 p.m. and I generally work only until 2:00 p.m. But that is only from May until October. Your dog will have someone around 90% of the day. I have a large yard. It is not fenced in but I keep my visiting pets on a leash at all times. They will be close by to me at all times.

“Elena asked if her husband could stay over with her and we were happy to have them both. They were so amazing with Mordi. They stayed at our house for four nights, sent us pictures every morning without asking, and updates all throughout the day so we could see how he was doing. They were so responsive. Never had any kind of issue. Very happy to have had them there and would be very happy to have them come again. Absolutely recommend them. Thank you!! ?”


“Gabby gave us great peace of mind while we were gone for 4 days, the first time we had ever used Rover and left our dog with someone other than family! Our dog and house were well cared for and she gave great updates, often with perfect timing throughout the day when we were starting to wonder how he was doing. We have great confidence in reaching out to her for future trips!”


About: Hi there! I have had animals at home my whole 30 years of life! From cats to dogs to rabbits & chickens! I have been professionally watching peoples pets for the last 4 years. I did attend a vet tech program in 2018. I have experience with puppies, all the way to senior care. I am comfortable and experienced at administering meds as well! I am a stay at home mom to a school aged boy. I am home pretty much all day every day. Making my availability extremely flexible. All pets will be at the main floor of our home, we do have a basement. We are not fenced in but are completely surrounded by woods on our 5 acres of land! Most of the dogs I watch will be put on a leash outside unless I am told they won't run away! Also, will crate if that is what they are used to!

“Sierra did a wonderful job taking care of our Winston. She was professional and we felt safe that Winston was in great care. We have a doggie cam, so we could see Winston with Sierra together playing. I would recommend her and will use her the next time we go out of town.”


“We are SO GLAD that we met Molly. She instantly bonded with our two dogs. We hired her to stay with them while we were out of town recently. Everything went really well. It was such a relief not having to worry about our pups. We will be hiring her again for our next trip and we highly recommend her.”


“I highly recommend Joshua to anyone. He took very good care of my two fur babies. He cleaned up after them. One of my babies is just 7 months ,but he managed to keep up with her. I loved that he sent pictures of them and kept in contact throughout the days. My babies were very happy to have him there. Will definitely be having him watch them again! ?”

Bonnie S.

“Bonnie watched our very energetic, 6 month old, puppy for 10 days last summer. She took such good care of her, walked her twice a day, played with her in the yard, snuggled - as much as you can with a puppy with those sharp teeth:) and basically was a great dog mom while we were gone. Bonnie is a very happy and kind person which carried over to her care of our puppy. I observed her being gentle but firm when interacting with our puppy as well as my daughter's dog and could see that she genuinely loves animals. Upon our return I could tell our puppy missed all the love and attention she was given. Bonnie spent a lot of time with our puppy and took great care of her. I would highly recommend her to be your dog's caregiver!”

“Hello - Alex since she was born has been around dogs and has had a great sense of awareness of what they need and require. She has taught all our dogs discipline and tricks using her various skills as well as treats - they respond and are active to her commands. Alex has also spent a lot of time with her grandma dog Lilly and taught her to sit / shake and play dead rolling over on her back and staying as still as a possum. She has a great feel and instincts for bringing out the best in animals as well as humans. Feel free to reach out to me if you need anything further. Thank you”
