“This was my first Rover experience. Nervous! We studied all the close options hard and chose D. I am very glad we did. Our 3 dogs were relaxed upon meeting her, and they came home relaxed. Some sitter claim to have a fenced yard, but in pictures it actually looks very flimsy. I was happy to see the solid fence, both front and back. Her house is really cool. We immediately booked for our next trip. ~Blake and Linda”


“Debra was nothing shy of amazing with our puppy! She sent photos and videos the entire time she had him. He even got sent home with a cute goodie bag! Debra is so sweet, and you can tell she loves animals! She will always be our go to sitter! 10/10 recommend!❤️”


“Angela was amazing. We had two of our family members and it was the puppy’s first time boarding. She was great with her and our older dog. We were very impressed and comfortable with her. She communicated very well. Thank you again Angela! 😉”


“Aleicia is a great sitter. I am so glad she was able to keep Arie for me. She is so kind and nurturing. Arie loved being with her and that's what won me over. She took great care of him and even gave him a bath for me. I was not looking forward to the bath, but I knew he was going to need one after running around living his best life. He is even more spoiled now. Lol. Aleicia is such a sweet, kind person. Hope she will continue to be available when I need her in the future.”


“We loved Holly! She was pleasant to communicate with. She welcomed myself and our pups into her home with ease. She kept us updated throughout their overnight stay, sent pictures and videos. Ive never seen my two pups warm up to someone as quickly as they did Holly! She was great!”



“Jharasen was attentive to my concerns and sent frequent updates of my dog while I was out of town that helped put me at ease. I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter in the area!”


“Thanks so much for watching my fur babies Charlie and Wyatt! Great updates, easy drop off and pick up, wonderful communication and a kind home away from home for my pups. I highly recommend Brittany and her family and will be coming back in the future when I need to travel out of town. 5 stars all the way!”


“Martha is amazing with our dog. Our dog requires extra attention because of her bad leg and we feel very comfortable leaving her with Martha. We know that Martha loves her and makes sure that she is safe. She gives us regular updates and we love the pictures she sent with funny commentary. She has a great sense of humor. We will absolutely leave our baby with Martha again when we’re away.”


“Amy is a an amazing caretaker and pet lover! Her home is an awesome environment for my pup and anyone’s! She has several outdoor spaces. My dog loves to be in the sunshine and he can do that and get in the shade if he’s hot or be inside with her while she works at home. He’s been so loved in her care. Amy followed my follow up communication preference so perfectly. I had a very busy weekend so she sent me a couple updates and answered so quickly when I had time to reach out. Amy is the best and she is so affordable. Book her today! I will definitely be back.”


“Chino was well taken care of while I was away. Chino is shy and when I picked her up she did not seem shy at all with them, especially with Shannon's lovely daughter. I would recommend her and she also has a privacy fence surrounding her backyard, which put me at ease also.I would definitely ask for her services again!”


“Absolutely amazing, my dogs were very well taken care off for the whole week, Kendra constantly texted me their photos, I couldn't recommend her enough and can't wait to book again♡!”


“Annie was amazing! I have a reactive dog and she was more than willing to accommodate her, she knew exactly what to do to make her feel comfortable. I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”


About: With many years of experience as a veterinary technician in both shelter and clinic settings, I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and care to every pet I work with. My hands-on experience ranges from administering medications and handling emergencies to comforting anxious pets and supporting their emotional well-being. I’ve worked with animals of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs, making me exceptionally well-prepared for pet sitting, dog walking, and providing attentive, professional care. Your pets will be in the hands of someone who treats them with the same compassion, patience, and expertise that I’ve developed over years in the field! I love being able to meet other people's fur babies and make them feel safe and happy when under my care.❤️ I am currently only working two days a week at my veterinary clinic, which leaves me with a fairly open and flexible schedule. This allows me plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting, dog walking, and providing reliable, attentive care for your pets when you need it most. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and behavior. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and a calm atmosphere. When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their regular routine to reduce stress, keep their space tidy, and make sure they feel secure and loved while their owners are away. My background as a veterinary technician means I’m also confident handling any special needs or medical situations that may arise.

“Analee was quick to respond to our needs for a weekend boarder, and she was professional and loved our dog like her own. We would recommend her a thousand times over. Our dog came home so happy and worn out from lots of play time this weekend!”
