“Erica was super responsive and treated our puppy dog like her own, we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again! From the first time she met our dog we could tell they would be fast friends. We feel so lucky!”


“Alex was amazing and my dogs love her! I was nervous leaving them for the first time and Alex came over and made me much better! She clearly loves dogs and is very knowledgeable! Highly recommended!”


“We’ve had Varana do drop in visits a couple of times. She comes at the appointed times and gives report cards and pics. Sammy and Emmy enjoy her company and Varana loves to see the dogs.”


“Chloe was great - she sent very detailed messages and pics each day and the cats really seemed to like her. We came home and they acted like we hadn't even been gone (because Chloe took such good care of them). Chloe was lovely and we'd definitely use her again in future!”


“Lily provided excellent care for our cat Hobson. Our directions were followed completely and we enjoyed the daily photos. Hobson is in excellent condition after this booking. We are very grateful.”


“Mae has been absolutely phenomenal. I needed someone to watch my rats while away for the holidays, and Mae did a fantastic job caring for them. She always made sure to ask questions for additional clarification and kept me thoroughly updated on their health and well-being. Mae truly went above and beyond on their care and sent me regular photo and written updates on them. I am grateful to have landed in contact with her and to come home to see my rats happy and healthy.”


“Glendon was absolutely amazing with my two fur-babies! My boy doesn't warm up quickly to people but I can tell by the video and picture Glendon sent that Copper was a huge fan too! Excellent communication, timely and very attentive to any requests/special needs of my pups! Highly recommend and will be using him again!”


About: I grew up with both dogs, cats and rabbits. I’ve cared for various other mammals throughout my life. I have experience with senior and sick animals as well. I house sat for many neighbors and their various pets over the years. I also have worked in animal clinics and pet laboratory environments as I originally intended on becoming a veterinarian. Working to become a wildlife conservationist currently. I currently work a very flexible job from home which takes up less than 20 hours a week so I have plenty time to spend with your pets. I have always loved all animals. I currently live with 3 cats our rental doesn’t allow dogs. I will have plenty time for pets, walks and playing outside in the safety and comfort of your pets home. I strive to make transitions for your pet as stress free as possible.

“Easy communication and very flexible. My dog loved spending time with them. Justin went above and beyond always updating us about Annie with pics and how to visits went. Definitely booking again next time.”


“Taylor H. was great! Our cat Max really liked her (and we did as well, of course). She took such great photos of him as well. Very reassuring for us, since we'd never left him alone before. We cannot recommend Taylor enough!”


About: I’ve had pets all my life – cats and dogs. I can’t imagine having a home without animals. Currently, I have 2 very loving German Shepherds and a cat. I’ve used Rover for years to find sitters for my own pets and now that I’m retired I’m excited to fill some of my time looking after other people’s babies. Since I’m retired, I’m open to a variety of schedules. Ideally I would like to avoid night visits but am happy to drop in anytime during the day. I believe all pets should be spoiled and loved unconditionally. During drop in visits, I will make sure your pets have all their needs met and do everything I can to comfort them in their owners absence.

“McKenna was a GREAT pet sitter. She was on time and did all the tasks asked and even filled the bird feeders. Best of all, Stormy was excited to see her each day for food and pets. Her photos were so appreciated and so well done. I really appreciated her daily updates.”


“Constance went WAY above and beyond for my fosters! She was patient and stayed over her time with Amelia who is a bit skiddish and reserved to help her get more comfortable. THEN!! Asked if she could help me pooper scoop!! I'm keeping her for all things dogs. Even offered her services at home with her dogs to help socialize my puppies!!! If there were 10 stars she would get them all.”


“Cleo was absolutely amazing with our dog. She was patient and willing to take the time to get to know our dog. She communicated frequently about how everything was going which put us at ease. We will absolutely use her again. Highly recommend!”


About: I am a proud dog, cat and bird mom! I grew up on a farm with a variety of different critters such as horses, cows, pigs, goats, chickens, dogs, cats and more! I am a veterinary assistant and love the career I am in. I have worked in the profession for 9 years. I enjoy taking care of animals and especially those in need. I have many years of experience with foster care for both dogs and cat. I pride myself in taking care of your pet like they are my own. I have 4 dogs, 3 cats and 3 birds that I love dearly. I am a veterinary assistant and work part time currently. I have animals around me in every aspect of my life. I have a large house that is dog and cat friendly. My dogs love playing in our large back yard and are well adjusted to having new visitors and making new friends.

About: Hi, I'm Alex! I grew up around large dogs and have years of experience dog sitting and training for friends and family across all ages and breeds, as well as dogs with special medical needs involving medications, past trauma history, and assistance going up and down stairs. I have two friendly and cuddly cats at home, and someday hoping to have the right space and time to adopt a big floofy dog. My kitties are currently learning to come when their name is called and working on sensory training to feel comfy when I brush their teeth! All cats and dog sizes/ages are welcome, and I can't wait to meet your baby! :) My schedule: I am a speech-language pathologist currently working Monday through Thursday. I love my job, but missing spending time with animals. I am routinely available Fridays and Sundays. Per request, I can be available Saturday mornings or Thursday afternoons as well to check in on your furry friend! My home: I have a large, open concept home that is "baby proof" due to our two curious cats at home. If needed, our cats are comfy hanging out in our master bedroom where we have a screen door so they can still observe, if your dog isn't a fan of cats. If you decide to board with us, I only accept one family at a time. I want to make sure safety comes first, and this will also allow me to create a homey environment and give more attention! We currently do not have a fenced in yard (but hope to soon!). Aside from going on daily walks, if you are comfortable, I can link your dog to a run or a long rope, while supervised, to enjoy the outdoors as we have about an acre of open space in our back yard.

About: Hello Pet Parents, My name is Maleeka and I’m a former emergency veterinary hospital receptionist and current nursing student. My love for animals started at a young age. My first job was at a local, family owned pet store when I was 14. I’ve been caring for animals for 20 years and hope to continue to do so for years to come. Pet Care would fit into my weekly routine as I’m currently a part time college student with a flexible schedule to provide pet sitting services. I’m home full time and my courses are online. I live in a quiet neighborhood away from the main road and traffic. I have a large, unfenched backyard surrounded by woods at the edge of the property. Taking care of a pet at a client’s resident would depend on their house’s location etc.

Alexandra D.
“Hello, I have known Alexandra for 7 years. She's extremely compassionate and caring towards all flora and fauna. Alexandra has been constantly moving since she finished graduate school, so she has never quite had the means, permission, or the space to fairly raise a puppy of her own. Though this is true, this is probably the first thing she will do when this becomes a possibility. She is constantly volunteering herself to care for her friend's and family's dogs, and has handled many breeds both big and small. Alexandra's love for dogs is real, I couldn't think of anyone better for the job!”


Maleeka D.
“Maleeka pet set for my shitzu Louie. She was very compassionate and loving . She has a wonderful way with animals a very calming effect. She is the only person I would leave my dog with.”
