“Sarah was wonderful & we couldn't recommend her more! We have a 5 mo. old puppy, so we were a little nervous at first as this is our first time using Rover, but we felt SO comfortable and relaxed once we met Sarah. She was great at communicating with us & we loved all of the pictures she sent. We will definitely be requesting her again! :) thanks, Sarah!!”

“I am so happy with the care Jaron provided for my pets! He responded promptly to my initial messages and sent me detailed updates and pictures with each visit. He is a responsible and caring pet sitter. I have booked with him 2 more times.”

About: My love of animals started from a young age. I grew up on a farm with a variety of pets, from dogs and cats to pigs and horses! I have fostered and boarded a variety of dog breeds and cats, and I currently have a dog and 4 kittens - so you can trust your pet will be in great hands! I am an active teacher, so I stay busy throughout the week, but I am off on holiday breaks and weekends, which is when I will be most available! I do also have afternoon and nighttime availability thought out the week on occasion. I provide personalized care for your pets by sticking to their routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs they have. I ensure their environment stays comfortable and safe while you’re away, offering companionship and attention to keep them happy and relaxed. Regular updates and photos will keep you informed, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in great hands!
“Sylvia did a great job checking in on my puppy, Max! We met up the day before to show her around and go over everything she needed to know to take him on a walk, feed him, and play with him for a while while I was out. She asked great questions and provided updates while she was there! I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”

About: I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I understand how important consistency and patience are while owners are away. I can help with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication reminders, litter box care, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’m especially focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their home environment, while also keeping owners updated with photos and communication throughout the stay. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m able to plan my days around walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets get consistent attention and care. I’m also reliable with communication and updates, so owners can feel comfortable knowing their pets are being well cared for while they’re away. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and low-stress environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any household rules or instructions. I make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention and supervision. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, keep communication open with regular updates and photos, and prioritize making pets feel secure and cared for while their owners are away.
About: I've been dropping in to aid family and friends with their dogs, cats, and other pets since I was in high school, and have been online doing general pet services for the last 3 or so years now. I myself have 3 cats and a snake. I have experience with giving cats eye medication, oral pills, medication mixed with treats/food, and creams. For dogs I've given creams and medication mixed with food/treats. I'm currently doing freelance work so my schedule is pretty flexible. Other than my own pet's schedule, I'm happy to find time for your pet's needs. I always make sure to check in with my clients to ensure they feel comfortable with me in their house. Things like where they're comfortable with me going and doing, where the pet(s) are allow to be, any routines that need to be done, and anything else they'd like to precaution or worry about.

“Angie is the best! She has done drop in visits for my two cats numerous times - most recently for 14 days while I was gone in a trip. When I got home my cats were calm and relaxed as if I hadn't been gone at all. Angie is very kind and well qualified to watch pets, she also brings in my mail and feeds the birds for me... I highly recommend her!!”
“Pamela did a great job checking on Chloe every day while we were on vacation. Chloe really seemed to bond with her. She went above and beyond by bringing in our mail and taking our trash to the curb. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and currently have four cats that I’ve cared for for the past four years. Growing up, my family always had dogs ranging from small to large breeds, so I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities. I’ve also helped care for family members’ dogs over the years, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and truly enjoy being around animals. I always try to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for just like they would at home.

“Elizabeth was a great communicator. She sent me photos and short videos of my cat each day that she cared for him. It made me feel better to see him and know he was OK. She brushed him regularly, and the litter box was clean when I got home. I was happy with her services and will ask her to care for my pet again when I go on vacation.”
