“Kathryn did an amazing job with my dogs and my house. The dogs loved her and I got lots of photos of their time together. 100% will engage her again to take care of my babies. Highly recommend”
“Helen took great care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats! I will definitely have Helen pet sit for us again!”
“Morgan did an amazing job caring for my senior lab Cooper. I hope he would be interested in the future for long weekends etc. Thank you Morgan!!!”
“The world needs more Emmas! Emma is simply the best. From the moment we connected with her, she was incredibly responsive and consistently demonstrated professionalism and a genuine commitment to what she does. Our dogs absolutely loved her! She kept us regularly updated, which brought us so much peace of mind while we were away. Knowing that someone so dedicated was caring for our furry family members made all the difference. What truly stood out was Emma’s proactive nature—she offered to help us with a situation we hadn’t even anticipated. That level of care goes far beyond what you typically expect when trusting someone with your pets. Emma went above and beyond in every way. I wholeheartedly recommend her. The world would truly be a better place with more people like Emma.”
“We usually use a kennel for our dogs while we are out of town. After having Cera look after our babies we are NEVER using a kennel again! Cera is incredible! She is professional and responsible. She came to our house before our trip to meet the animals. She asked thorough questions and was very prepared. During our trip she took LOTS of pictures of the dogs and kitties playing and loving her company in our absence. I get a lot of anxiety leaving our pets, but with Cera I was completely comforted knowing they were well taken care of. She kept the house maintained for me while we were gone, which was amazing! She was very quick to respond with text messages and seems to genuinely love my animals. She is a treasure and we will be using her from now on when we have to leave the furbabies! Thank you Cera! The animals cannot wait to see you again!!”
About: I've cared for all types of dogs, from pets to family friends' dogs. I'm flexible and attentive to their needs, ensuring they feel loved, comfortable, and safe while in my care. I'm available Monday through Thursday at any time, and most evenings Friday through Sunday. I’m flexible and happy to work around your schedule to provide the best care for your dog. While caring for your dog(s), I focus on creating a comfortable, familiar environment. I love being outdoors, so there will be plenty of exercise and fresh air. I’m attentive to their needs, offering companionship, playtime, and ensuring they feel safe and well-cared for while you’re away.
“Such an amazing sitter! Dee was extremely attentive to our dog and followed her routine to a Tee. She even went out of her way to take her to the nearby dog park to get some extra exercise! Would 100% recommend!!”
“Jess was amazing with my pups! Very timely about visits and understanding of their needs. One of my dogs can be a bit of a grouch and Jess gave him the time and space he needed to warm up to her and he quickly came around to wanting her attention. Lots of updates and pictures, very comforting all around. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Mae took great care of my two dogs. She is very responsible and great communicator, send me several updates with pictures what I truly appreciate. I would definitely reach out to her if need help in the future.”
“Ryan took good care of my pets and the house! The puppers warmed up to them quickly. I am pretty happy with this stay and will book next time I am out of town.”
“Claire was so great with our 2 dogs and cat for an overnight stay. It was our first time using Rover and admittedly, I felt like somewhat of a helicopter pet mom going from a trusted friend watching our pets to a ‘stranger’, plus having specific instructions about how to deal with our high energy/anxiety dog and keeping our car separate from our other dog. But with all of those instructions, Claire listened every step of the way and made everything so seamless. I could tell in our meet and greet our fur babies would be in great hands, but she exceeded that. She was extremely responsive, understood this being our first time with Rover, and sent plenty of updates. She’s truly is the reason we were able to enjoy our holiday and know our pups and cat were taken care of. We will definitely be booking her in the future if she’s available whenever we need it.”
“Kierra and her family were amazing with my 4 pets (2 dogs/2 cats). First time using ROVER type services, and it was such a good experience. i felt reassured every day i felt reassured everyday i was gone :) ITs also amazing to know they love bully breeds, which helped! Definitely plan on using Kierra in the future :)”
“Jamie was great and very easy to work with. She was on time and clearly got along with Zelda and was communicative throughout the booking process and during the day where she dog-sat. Zelda was in a good mood when I got home and clearly enjoyed the company.”
“She did an excellent job taking care of my doggo as well as looking after my place while i was away. Great communication and i appreciated the update pictures of their walks. thank you very much!”
About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by all types of animals. Growing up with my cats and dogs, i’ve learned the ways that a pet can provide you with more love and friendship than some people ever could. I would do anything for mine the way that i would for someone else’s bundle of joy. i love nurturing animals in any way that they need to see them happy. i’m currently working 3 days a week at Bronson Hospital. my schedule varies and any day that i am not scheduled to work, i will be free to help in any way i can! i can easily feed, water, crate, provide medications if needed and anything else your fur baby requires. While i do not have the space to bring animals to my home, i can easily make the needed trips to take care of any pets in your home and treat it with the same care of my own.
About: As you read through my current 5 star reviews they are all from years ago when I was a homeowner in Washington State. My son and I now live here and still want to spend time caring for animals. I will be a pet owner again soon, but for now we love caring for others animals. I have both owned, rescued, and cared for pets my entire life. I'm comfortable caring for pets of all ages and with administering medication when needed, as well. Owning a pet isn't right at the moment so caring for others pets is perfect for my schedule. Sharing love and care and having animals in my life is fullfilling. I am not currently offering in home services (at my home). I can come to your home and watch your pet babies. How I do that is dictated by the owner. Your pet being comfortable in their own home while you're away means consistency in what they are used to.

“I recommend Genevieve as your pet caregiver because she is punctual, responsible, respectful, caring, and she loves all animals. You will feel your animal(s) are safe with them in her care.

Your pet(s) will have the loving care you are looking for.”
