“Tia is a trustworthy, responsible pet caregiver. She is qualified with years of personal pet ownership as well as husbandry of a variety of species ranging from lizards to horses. She is knowledgeable and sensitive to the needs of the animals around her. Tia values the physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing of animals. She has a good sense of judgement and does not hesitate to reach out when she feels concern for a pet in her care.

“Ricky was great! We have a large dog that gets meds and two very curious cats but none of it phased him. He made sure all were comfortable and occupied before leaving. We would definitely have him again!”


4. Pamela M.

5. Erin S.

“Erin did a great job taking care of our dogs. This was our first time using Rover, and Erin made sure to meet our dogs beforehand and check in detail to ensure she had all the details of their care nailed down. She sent us regular updates and checkins (much appreciated), and knowing our dogs were in good hands made it possible to enjoy our vacation.”

8. Polina A.

“Polina stayed in our home with our border collie mix, Willy, for 12 nights. We came home to a happy dog and found everything just as we had left it. Polina updated us with pictures giving us piece of mind that all was well at home. We will definitely book her again!”


9. Anna S.

“Anna was amazing with our dog and rabbit! She kept in touch while we were away with pictures and things she was doing with them. Our house was clean when we returned home. Highly recommend!!”


10. Michelle H.


“Michelle took such amazing care of our two big pups and cat while we were away for a week. The day we left, we noticed one of our dogs was limping, which obviously caused some stress on our way out. However, Michelle went above and beyond to figure out what was causing the problem, pick up meds from the vet, and even soak his paw to remove anything stuck in the pad and reduce swelling. We couldn't have asked for a more kind, compassionate and communicative pet/house sitter! We definitely hope to be able to book her for future vacays!”


11. Ariel M.
“Ariel was able to watch our dog and cats on very short notice over the holiday weekend and was super communicative and sent tons of photos. We will gladly ask Ariel to watch our pets again and recommend her to anyone considering her services.”


12. Molly H.

“Had an awesome experience with Molly and her dog Izzi! She sent photos and videos throughout dog sitting at my apartment, which eased my nervousness of leaving her alone for the first time. She did really well with my dog and her social anxiety. I will definitely be rehiring her again for future needs! 10/10 Highly recommended.”


13. Ki B.

“Kiah helped us out last minute, over a holiday weekend, and was amazing. She was super communicative and sent lots of pictures of our pup. She gave him lots of attention and even let our chickens out for us. She gave me updates multiple times a day and left the house clean. I will absolutely be calling her again!”

15. Claire C.

“Can not thank Claire enough for taking such good care of our boys! She was very communicative, sent us photos, lets us know when she’d be leaving them alone, etc. Charlie and Angus loved her! I’m extremely relieved to have someone we can trust to keep our guys safe and happy while we’re away.”


16. Zoe B.

“Zoe was a fantastic dog sitter and house sitter. She watched our 3 year old dog for 4 days and 3 nights. She took pics of our dog and sent them to us every day, she was great at keeping in touch and texted back right away any time I happened to contact her. Zoe”s attention to detail, positive attitude and love of animals were an added bonus. We can’t recommend Zoe enough and hope to use her again in the future!”


17. Kelsey & Forrest K.

“Kelsey went above & beyond with my dog, Nalah!! She took her to the dog park, for multiple walks, and sent photo and video updates throughout the day. My dog was smiling ear to ear in each photo- Highly recommend. Will def be using Kelsey again!!”


18. Brooklynn M.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I have had many pets of my own, as well as I live with a dog right now because I’m with a roomate who owns an Aussie. I am someone who is very trustworthy and reliable, and I am good with taking instruction Pet care fits into my schedule because I am a college kid, and I only have 2 classes that are 3 days a week. So that leaves me with a lot of extra time on my hands and I love to be around things that give me joy and animals is something that does. I have a very open schedule and I’m also in the area most weekends! I am able to feed and give the animals water, if any cages need to be changed, or poop needs to be scooped or picked up I am also able to do that. I love taking pets on walks if they need and also helping them let their energy out!


19. Alyssa M.

“Alyssa does such a great job with my anxious dog! She sends me lots of updates and Milo always seems very well taken care of when I get home.”


20. Olivia P.

“Olivia was great! She was patient with Nova and would communicated with me if there were any issues!”
