Jordyn is so sweet with our dog Tina! We feel lucky to have found her. She’s super patient with our shy pup and always takes great care of the house while we are gone - going the extra mile like putting away dishes or shoveling the driveway, which I never expect. She’s trustworthy, communicative, and friendly. You should book her!

Katy is so wonderful that I have to leave a second review. We’ve been going through a big transition and Katy continues to meet each of my boys where they are at. Her hyper awareness, consideration, and kindness allow me to travel and not stress about any of the boys.

About: I’ve been surrounded by and taken care of animals since I was a toddler. I grew up with all sorts of animals in the home from Guinea pigs and bunnies to dogs and birds! I’ve pet sat on occasion including dogs and cats as well as chickens and horses! I’m currently self employed and am taking on work through Rover to support my business as I’ve experienced a transition with work over the past few months. This makes me very flexible during the week and weekends. I want to provide an experience that makes you feel comfortable and your pet cared for when you aren’t able to be there. Creating an environment that reflects the care that you give your pets is my priority as a pet owner myself.

I booked Jen to sit my senior dog who is very sweet but particular, and she did a fantastic job. Super clearly asking about his needs and his schedule so I could go on a family trip with no worries about my boy. Super timely and clear updates with fantastic pictures that made me feel immediately comforted. I’m looking forward to booking with Jen again when Peanut needs some extra care.

About: I’ve always loved animals of all shapes and sizes, and that was reflected in my many pets growing up, dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, rabbits, you name it! I worked at Mounds Pet Food Warehouse where I became more familiar with socializing with nervous or anxious animals, as well as learned a lot of helpful animal information! I also have experience pet-sitting both cats and dogs! I’m great at communication, and I’m very friendly and flexible! I’m currently unemployed as I’m waiting for my summer job to start! I go to MATC until 3pm every weekday but I have no other obligations! I’m very tidy and respectful! I would take the time to make sure your home is just the way you left it and the way your pet loves it! I’m very patient and easy going, I’d love to take a long walk with your dog or play with the same toy until they get bored (which we know will be never)

Travis is truly remarkable! We arranged a meet and greet where he invested time in getting to know our dog. He made sure to understand Remy's needs and ensured a perfect match. Travis went above and beyond by agreeing to house and Dog sit for 8 days. During his stay, Remy not only had the pleasure of regular walks but also relished the companionship at home. It's evident that Travis provided a level of care that exceeded our expectations. Our home was left in pristine condition, and to top it off, our neighbors were quick to compliment Travis on his friendly demeanor. Remy, our Husky German Shepherd Rescue, is eagerly anticipating his next stay with Travis. It's heartening to see such a positive connection between them. Travis has proven to be more than just a sitter; he's become a trusted companion for Remy. We're grateful to have found such a reliable and caring individual for our beloved pet.

About: I have a family dog that has been around since my elementary school days, so I have experience taking care of him from both his time as a puppy and an elder currently! I walk my friend’s dog often and he’s a doggie with a whole bunch of energy. I have some extra time on my hands in between jobs and would love to help out where I can! I currently am looking for something new, so I can stick to a weekly schedule if need be. I am also open for pop ins on one off occasions if there is something new on your schedule! I currently have an apartment with an no-pet policy, but I am open for pop-by to see your furry friend. I can make sure to refill their water bowl, give them some dinner, spend some time playing to make them feel some love, and hang out a little if they’ve been lonely all day.

Seanna was responsive, reliable, and took excellent care of our rambunctious 6 month old Great Pyr/Retriever puppy while we were away for a week. We have already sent another booking request for a future trip. I recommend her to anyone looking for a considerate and skilled dog and house sitter. Five stars.

Robert couldn’t have been better! He took great care of my high-needs pup and she made it through our longest getaway just fine. She was given multiple walks per day and plenty of outside time. We also received at least one picture per day to show the kids (which made them very comfortable. I’ll definitely be booking him for my next trip.

Ashley was phenomenal in every aspect of caring for our pet. Before we booked, she came by for a consultation so we could make sure it was a good fit for everyone, which immediately put us at ease. From the very beginning, she was caring, compassionate, and accepting. We were away for 11 days, and Ashley went above and beyond by sending us daily updates and photos. It was so reassuring to see our pets happy and well cared for while we were gone. Her professionalism, communication, and genuine love for animals made the entire experience stress-free. We highly recommend Ashley and would gladly trust her with our pet again!

We were delighted with all of our experiences with Manu and how she cared for our dog, Bella for four days. Manu doesn’t just love dogs! She is knowledgeable about dog health, behavior and training as well as being very perceptive about a dog’s needs. Even before Manu started, she made sure that she had all the information she needed. Then when she had a question she spoke with our contact person. Then while we were away, she sent us s wonderful stream of photos of her playing with, walking and exploring with Bella. Bella was clearly very happy about being with Manu when we picked Bella up. We all feel confident that we left Bella in good hands and hope to work with her again. Review from 4 members of our family.
