“Maranda was absolutely incredible with Boone. She kept me updated with adorable photos, made him special puppy ice cream, and took wonderful care of him while I was away. She’s incredibly kind, attentive, and a wonderful communicator. The house was spotless when I got home and Boone was relaxed and happy. She’s trustworthy, loving, and exactly the kind of sitter every dog parent dreams of! Boone and I are so lucky to have found her.”


“Ashlee took great care of our dog! She walked him and made sure he got plenty of cuddles. She gave him extra food and walked him after our flight was delayed in case we got home too late.”

“Kristen did a great job taking care of our dog and house while we were on vacation. She communicated well and sent us pictures of our dog playing and doing well so we wouldn’t worry. She was responsible and I recommend her!”


About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, which includes dogs, cats, and bigger animas. I’ve handled everything from daily walks and playtime to feeding and check-ins, always making sure each pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I work full-time during the day, but I’m able to spend my mornings, evenings, and nights giving your pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I’m available 7 days a week and can commit to longer stays, making sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m open to taking dogs on care rides and to dog parks for extra fun and exercise, if that’s something you’d like. Also once I have my own home—hopefully this summer—I’ll be happy to offer a comfortable space where pets can stay with me if they’re comfortable in a new environment. I do have a very friendly, playful dog as well who loves meeting new friends, so your pup can enjoy some social time if they’re comfortable with that.
“Jackson was so attentive and took great pride in caring for Rocky. Also, our flight from London was cancelled and the day after this booking expired, he stayed the extra night and gave me such peace of mind I wasn’t scrambling t find a different person, family/friends to help. Can’t thank you enough for your great care. Also was very responsible while staying in our home.”

About: Hi! I’m Jess, and my husband and I are huge animal lovers who know pets are family, not just animals. Since we both work from home, your pets will get plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. We have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities, including multi-pet households, senior pets, anxious pets, and pets that need medication or a little extra patience. Over the years, we’ve helped care for pets for friends, family, and neighbors, and we genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks and playing fetch or your cat prefers a calm environment and quiet company, we’re happy to adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable and safe. We also know how hard it can be being away from your pets, so you can expect regular updates and lots of photos while they’re in our care. Our goal is simple: happy pets, stress-free owners, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind through regular updates and photos along the way. Pet care fits really naturally into our daily routine because we both work remotely full time, which allows us to be flexible, attentive, and present throughout the day. We genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s walks, playtime, sticking to feeding schedules, or just giving them company so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. We’re both very routine-oriented and understand how important consistency is for pets, so we do our best to keep their normal schedule and environment stress-free. Since we’re home throughout the day, pets get plenty of attention, supervision, and care instead of being left alone for long periods. We care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and relaxed. During house sits, we stick closely to your pet’s normal routine including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little things that help them feel safe while you’re away. We also make sure your home stays clean, secure, and well cared for. We know how important updates are when you’re missing your pets, so we love sending photos and check-ins throughout the stay. Our goal is for both you and your pets to feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: I have always had animals starting with my first cat when i was 8. he was my first experience that showed me how much i love animals and my love for them quickly grew! i have had 4 horses over the last couple of years along with multiple dogs. i own a 12 year old golden retriever who has been in our family since he was a puppy. i have always been a neighbor and friends go to for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter! i am currently working part time along with my classes for my enrollment in a flight program. i have some gaps in between my obligations throughout the day, along with some days off throughout the week that i would love to pet sit during. i do not offer pet sitting in my own home, however i can assure you that your pet and your belongings are in good hands, no matter if it’s a quick drop in or a walk. you can be sure that things will be exactly how you left them.
“For the second time around Ciara has dog sat our pups! She has outdone herself again and made our pups feel loved and cared for during my trip. Making me feel secure that they were in good hands. She will continue to be my go to dog sitter. Don’t hesitate to book her, you won’t be disappointed!!!!”

“Maddie was awesome!! We previously had a bad experience with rover so I was skeptical to use rover again but Maddie followed all of our instructions carefully and made sure to not leave our dogs more than 6 hours (which we had discussed). She sent photos every day and was very responsive. We already have her booked to have her watch our dogs again when we leave for a longer period of time because we trust she will take good care of them. Thank you, Maddie!!”
“Kiera was amazing! We had a mixup with our booking and she happily made it right for us, which we greatly appreciated! She took such great care of our pups and continually sent us videos and pictures! She’s the absolute best!”

About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and bring over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for them. I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, including reactive dogs and senior dogs who need extra patience, consistency, and attention. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and behavior so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or needs a slower pace, I adjust my approach to meet their needs. I’ve also helped care for neighbors’ pets over the years, providing dependable support and making sure their pets are well cared for and relaxed in their home environment. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most weekdays and weekends. I’m able to accommodate a variety of times, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I try to keep things as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible. Feeding, walks, and whatever they’re used to day to day. I know pets do best when things feel familiar. I’m calm and patient, especially with dogs that might be a little anxious, reactive, or older. I pay attention to how they’re acting and adjust as needed. In your home, I’m respectful and keep things tidy. I’ll also send updates and photos so you know how everything is going.
“Wow! So happy we had these guys come and watch our four cats! They are amazing! Definitely a dream team! They are so organized and conscientious and the care of your pets. We had a lot of pictures and were able to relax and enjoy our time away so we didn’t have to worry about our home or pets. It’s so nice to have sitters that treat your pets like you treat your pets. We are definitely having them house sit and pet sit from now on. Thank you so much guys!”

“Blyth made my trip out of town a dream come true for my dog and me! The meet and greet was great and allowed time to check out the property and get a feel for my dog’s behaviors and needs, and Blyth was super respectful of my home and Dulce’s schedule. She also has great experience and great energy with dogs. Blyth sent great photos and updates as well, which really was excellent for peace of mind while I was in an out of cell coverage. Would love to work with Blyth again!”

“Sierra was so wonderful! She was able to watch our dogs last minute as we had an out of town funeral to attend and our pups couldn't come with us. She did some tidying in our house and even made us a crock pot meal to come home to! We will definitely have her again! And of course she was amazing with our pups including out shy foster puppy!”
“I felt so at ease having cami at the house with my dogs. She sent pictures and updates and followed their schedule (giving both my dogs their medications and accommodating their variable activity levels). I came home to a very clean house and happy dogs.”


“I cannot recommend Lauryn enough! She was very professional and easy to communicate with. She provided updates of our dogs throughout the stay and I felt very comfortable with her in our home. My dogs can be picky with who they trust, but they both instantly fell in love with her. Highly recommend!”
