About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs since I was 8. Growing up I wanted to be a dog veterinarian, but changed paths to be an early learning teacher after I graduated. I’ve had dogs and cats and I’m also a duck mom! I have 10 at the moment and love every bit of it. I’m also a stay at home mom just looking to help others and make some extra money on the side! I’m currently a stay at home mom and have days completely open! My daughter some days have gymnastics but nothing that would take more than an hour or two ! I have a fenced .75 acre with 3 friendly dogs and a fenced area with 10 ducks ! I’m open for either in home or in my home depending on the circumstances!
“Very nice and respectful sitter, provided updates and made my wife and I feel very secure leaving our fur babies with her, especially on a Holliday. We are grateful for her services and will not hesitate to rebook.”

“Stephanie took wonderful care of our older German shepherd. She adjusted her support as my dog needed it and made sure she was cared for. I highly recommend Stephanie.”

“Victoria is amazing! We were struggling with leaving our fur babies for a week, but Victoria put our mind at ease. She took such good care of our babies and home. When she stopped by to drop off the key all of our dogs (3 of them) were excited to see her again. To top it off, she is just a genuinely amazing person that is kind and trustworthy. We will absolutely be using her in the future.”

About: I have had dogs growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I love being with them! I am willing to go behind your expectations and work hard. I can’t wait to get to meet your pups! I’m currently part time and have a lot of my days free. I will be starting college soon but I will still be available Monday-Sunday! Safety is my biggest priority I will take care of your doggy as of it is my very own. I live in a great neighborhood/ community we have sidewalks all over and I have a fenced backyard.
“Victoria was a great sitter! We got plenty of updates while we were away and felt confident our dogs were being taken care of. Our dogs can get very anxious and need attention often, and Victoria had no problem making them feel comfortable and safe. We would definitely recommend her!”

“Ryenne was excellent! She took wonderful care of our dog,Beau, and our home. Great communication and attention to detail. We will definitely ask her to stay with Beau in the future.”

“Kristine was incredible. She went above and beyond to provide updates and pictures of our dog and cat while we were out of town. The level of care and love she showered our pets with was wonderful. We will absolutely be using Kristine for future house sitting needs.”

“Joanna was great at communicating and making sure that my dogs were played with and got full attention. Also very clean, tidy and respectful when house sitting. Will definitely book again for our next vacation.”

“Amazing! Booked last minute, was willing to do a meet and greet before. She bonded with snuggles right away!! During the visit, she sent a lot of videos and pictures with updates! 11/10 will recommend!!”

“Katherine did a great job taking care of our dog and the house. We really appreciated her updates, communication, and cleanliness. We would highly recommend her and will be reaching out again in the future!”

About: Hi there! I’m Alyssa a dedicated and reliable pet sitter with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals! From playful pups and cuddly cats to majestic horses and even farm animals. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I take great pride in providing loving, personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, grooming, administering medications, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I work from home two days a week, and on the other three weekdays, I’m in the office for just four hours at a time. That means I’m never away from the house for more than 5 hours – and I always make time for check-ins, walks, or play breaks before and after any outing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I offer a secure, pet-friendly environment with a fully fenced large yard, perfect for supervised playtime, fresh air, and plenty of tail wags. Whether your pet loves to run, explore, or just relax in the sunshine, they’ll have the space and freedom to feel right at home. They’ll also be in great company! I have three friendly, well-socialized fur babies of my own who love meeting new pals and help create a warm, welcoming pack vibe. Whether your pet is shy or super social, I always take time to make gentle, supervised introductions to ensure everyone feels safe, happy, and respected. With constant supervision, personalized attention, and a calm home setting, your furry family member will be cared for just like one of my own.
“Lily was amazing, she did such a good job at watching my 2 dogs. She gave updates with pictures and asked questions when she had any. She left the house spotless and my dogs had the best time with her. We will definitely be booking her again!”

“Jessica has a good personality. She has good communication skills and a good attitude. Maintaining Rocket's routine with eating and being let outside to go to the bathroom was really important to me. Another was that my home was safe and that Rocket did not have any accidents while I was gone. She was on time and stayed until I was back from the airport.”


About: I have about 10 years of experience in veterinary medicine. I worked in rescue for 2 years, then general practice for just over 6 years, and have been working in a mobile oncology clinic for the last 2 years. Any medications or special treatments needed are no problem for me. I have provided pet sitting services many times throughout the last 10 years and even prior to working in the veterinary industry I enjoyed helping people care for their animals while out of town for various lengths of time. I currently work 3 days a week in person in oncology and 1 day a week remote. My oncology days vary in hours but typically I start at 7:30am and am done most days before 4:00pm. I have no problem with crating or utilizing any special barriers or set up required to keep your pet safe in your house. I have a specific routine and set up that works for my dog in my own home, so I understand that every pet is a little different and unique.
“There is no praise I can give Shelby that comes close to encapsulating our experience of having her watch our young American pitbull terrier— she was truly extraordinary, and I felt confident the entire time that our goofy baby was in excellent hands. She is professional, thorough, kind, and meticulous. Our neighbors saw how much she played with Barkleby in the yard and requested her info for their next trip because they were so impressed with her diligence in making sure he got enough exercise, and how much time she spent caring for him! For as long as Shelby is offering pet-sitting services, she will be the first person we call. Thank you so much! 🥰”

Elk Plain pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had a last minute need for a sitter for 3 pups and Sarah really came through! Not only was she super responsive regarding availability, booking, and coming for a meet and greet the very next morning, but she continued the excellent communication and updates while I was gone. One of our three pups is such a nervous/shy girl but even by day two she was sleeping with Sarah at night and being a little love beggar ☺️ just goes to show how great Sarah is with animals. I know next time I need a sitter Sarah will be my first choice!
