About: I have worked in the pet industry for 16+ years. I have worked as a tech assistant, kennel worker, dog walker and caretaker in 2 veterinary practices. I have owned an operated a small dog grooming business. I have boarded many of my clients dogs in my residence. I am reliable, trustworthy, kind, compassionate and funny. I have a little Yorkie that is truly my heart! I adore him and could not imagine life without him. I LOVE dogs! I always treat any dog that is in my care as if they were my own. They are a part of the family and I can assure you that this is how they will be treated in my care. I consider it an honor to be able to take care of doggies.

About: Dependable and attentive sitter focused on keeping pets comfortable and routines consistent. I’m clean, communicative, and make sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away. I'm currently working part time and am trying to fill out more of my schedule! I have a lot of flexibility right now and want to take advantage of that to spend time petting some cute animals. I don’t offer boarding, but I prioritize a clean, safe, and calm environment when caring for pets in their home. I stick to routines and provide a steady, low-stress presence so pets feel comfortable.
“Page was excellent! She came to meet the cats and I before sitting them and it was super helpful to me. She was reliable & I can tell she loves and cares animals very much! I would definitely recommend working w Page!”
“Christine was an absolute delight to communicate with, and we trust her implicitly with caring for our pet dog and cat, both are senior animals who require medication and special attention. Christine was quick to respond to our inquiries, and left thorough notes for each visit. We highly recommend Christine to anyone who needs pet care assistance.”
“Brand new client and I booked 1-2 days before I needed Antonio. So I had a lot of instructions for him and he handled it without any hiccups and took care of the pups in some ways I didn’t specifically note. Would def book Antonio again. Thank you!”

“This was my first time booking with Laura and she was absolutely amazing! Not only did she take great care of my pup but she also took really great photos of him! Lol Definitely recommend booking with her!”
“I definitely recommend Dale for peace of mind when leaving your furry friends. He took excellent care of my senior fur baby and even got my nervous cat to warm up. He sent great photos and updates the whole time, and went above and beyond tidying their litter and eating areas. I would absolutely have Dale back to care for my guys!”
“Summer is great! I have a very nervous, anxiety ridden pit bull. She was able to quickly get on his good side and win him over. Summer was on time and helped take care of everything my pup needed while I was away.”
“Taylor was Vespa’s favorite sitter - and I got plenty of great pics to show how content Vespa was during the sitting. Taylor stayed the full 30 min for each stay, if not a little longer, and Vespa seemed to get all of the exercise she needed. You can tell Taylor really loves animals - 10/10”
East Congress pet parents share their Rover experiences
Laura has been amazing with my pups. She is thorough and hilarious with her communication, and sends plenty of pics while I have been away. My dogs are not the easiest to deal with, yet she handles them with grace and care. Will absolutely use her again in the future!
Nicky goes above and beyond!! She always gives me detailed updates during her visits and I know that she’s taking good care of my cat while I’m away. I’ve had bad Rover experiences in the past so it’s been great to find someone that I trust. She is the best!
Antonio had great communication from the start. He came over to see our place and meet Zoey before our vacation. I felt very comfortable with his help. He even brought in a package on our porch for us that had arrived late. We will definitely use him again as Zoey seemed like a very happy cat when we got home.
Reliable, punctual, and great communication! We had a fantastic experience with this drop-in visit! Lauren arrived exactly on time, which gave us total peace of mind. We loved getting the photo updates while we were away, and she left everything perfectly clean and tidy. Our pup was so well taken care of—we will definitely be booking with Lauren again!
Summer is amazing. She’s been taking care of our 3 pups via drop in visits when we’re away on trips. She always sends updates and photos, and these are always personal to each pup’s personality and warm. She’s very attentive and mindful of everyone’s likes and dislikes. Being confident that my pups are in good hands is all the peace I need.
Sydney is the best! I appreciated her stopping by ahead of my trip to meet Sasha & get acclimated with her space/routine. Sasha took to her immediately :) strong communication & a clear love for animals. So appreciate you, Sydney! Thank you for helping me & Sasha out in a pinch!
Maura was great! We take care of some feral cats, and she followed our instructions perfectly without any issues. She kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Would absolutely book Maura again and highly recommend her!
Robert not only took the best care of my cats but he went above and beyond to clean up their messes around the house as well. I feel like my house is cleaner than when I left it lol! I always have anxiety when leaving my cats for a long time on vacation but I was so at ease this time. He cared for my cats like I would my own and was AMAZING! Thank you!
