About: I grew up with all kinds of animals, thanks to my grandparents on the farm. I have been around all kinds of cats, dogs, chickens, cows, and even horses! I understand the needs of every pet are unique, and I am happy to support those needs. If your fur baby needs someone to play with, be cared for, or even someone to give belly rubs, I’m your gal! I will be working part time in the summer, so I can work on certain weekdays, and most weekends to care for your pet(s). I am very communicative about my schedule, so I can always let you know about my availability! With my current position, I can do late afternoon/evening visits, and in the summer, I can also manage early morning hellos! When caring for a pet in the home, I am always happy to play and exercise with your pet. I also can feed your pet, but I will only do that based on what the owner says. As a pet owner myself, I recognize that every pet is unique, and should be treated as such. I am happy to work with owners to understand how to best care for your pet and keep them happy!
“Jessica took very good care of our 2 shy kitties and sent wonderful pictures to us. She took time to give them love, and they enjoyed having her visit them. We would definitely hire her again!”
About: We’ve been pet-sitting for over 16 years and have had numerous clients gush to us afterward about their furry friends being in better shape than when they left. This is because we devote all of our time and energy to making sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved even when you’re gone, so they know you’ve left them in good hands. Among our years of caring for others’ pets, we have nursed senior dogs, handled multi-pet households with ease, and even won over dogs and cats who don’t usually like people outside of their families. We love animals whole-heartedly and will do everything we can to win their trust and love. We know from personal experience that your pet is your family, and you can rest assured they will always be treated with love and care. We have both had dogs and cats since we were very young, and a couple of years ago, we adopted our rescue dog, Lusi. Both of us have a lot of experience with handling rescue dogs and both small and large breeds. We also both have extensive experience with taking care of cats. We often take care of pets together, and always want to ensure your pet is in the best hands, and that you feel comfortable with us. You are welcome to request either one of us to care for your fur babies, if you have a preference. If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out! Because there are two of us, our schedule is pretty flexible. We currently both work from home and are very easy to work with to make sure your pet gets the care you need, when you need it! We are diligent about changing and filling water bowls, feeding and walking pets on time, and making sure we follow all house rules or expectations when we are house-sitting or stopping by to walk a dog. We are highly experienced with dietary restrictions and administering medications. If anything is ever unclear to us, we ask clarifying questions, and we are highly communicative and more than happy to give frequent updates on your pet.
“Celeste was an excellent sitter! She was responsive, professional, and even helped with a tricky situation that took place while we were away. My cat was very happy upon my return so I know he was well taken care of. I would definitely use her services again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. Genuinely adore each and every pupper I come across and will always be loving and kind to them! I’m available throughout the week and weekend! I’m able to have a flexible schedule and work with you throughout the week and will accommodate your needs. I have a gated home and backyard as well. I can crate your dog if needed, or have a very friendly mini poodle to keep your fur baby company.
“Really great. Lauren came to my house 2x a day for a week to check on my kitties. She even gave insulin shots to a mean old cat and made it work. Very trustworthy!”

“Lauren was a great sitter! We are new to town and needed a trusted sitter for our cat. He's not a lot of work but he needs lots of love and attention. Lauren was very flexible and responded to texts and messages very promptly. We felt so comfortable having here in our home and will definitely seek out her services in the future. Thank you, Lauren!”
“Charlotte helped take care of our two dogs, Zeus and Loki, during an especially busy week. She was great with the dogs and arrived punctually to make sure they were let out and got their lunch on time.”
“Absolutely amazing! My cats loved the care and compassion, and I appreciated the attention to details and professionalism. I’ve had great cat sitters, but Patty is the best of the best. I had complete trust in her services. I was kept up to date with everything. She exceeded all expectations, and my cats were so relaxed around her. That means everything!”

“Katie is an exceptional care taker of animals. We had her take care of our 2 cats while away on vacation. She not only cared for our pets but also our home. Celtic and Bunsen were played with and loved on so much by Katie they were not even upset with us for leaving them. I highly recommend her for care of your pets, cats and dogs alike!”

Prerana & Aubrey S.
“Prerana is incredibly loving and responsible when it comes to taking care of pets. I have trusted her to care for my cat, Nina, and my dogs, Bella and Uma, for several years, and she has extensive experience with caring for both dogs and cats. One of the best qualities about Prerana that makes her great with pets is that she is very mindful of different pets' temperaments, and she is always able to make them feel comfortable with her. Nina, before she passed, was often shy with people, but she loved Prerana because she was always gentle with her and knew exactly what to do to make her feel at ease. Bella can also be apprehensive with different people and is sometimes reactive when she's nervous, which makes it tricky to take her for walks. But, she warmed to Prerana immediately, and Prerana has been excellent with gently calming her down in those situations by offering treats and being consistent with training methods that Bella responds to. Though Aubrey has not taken care of Bella, I know from seeing him care for their rescue dog together with Prerana, he is also extremely responsible about being consistent and patient with training. Prerana and Aubrey are not only responsible with pets, but they also go above and beyond to make sure they are content and are having fun. My dogs Uma and Bella are very energetic, and they are able to keep up with their energy, making sure they get their exercise in fun ways, and keeping them mentally stimulated with toys and games. Prerana and Aubrey are also both extremely attentive when it comes to dietary restrictions. Uma has many restrictions and has a very sensitive stomach, but Prerana and Aubrey were very communicative and made sure to check with me before giving her treats, and knew what to feed her when she wasn't feeling well. I would recommend Prerana and Aubrey to anyone in need of pet caretakers enthusiastically and without hesitation. I completely trust them both to take care of my pets like they are their own.”

Bethany was absolutely amazing! This was my first time using Rover and she took the time to really hear all my concerns and answer my questions. She sent amazing updates every visit, telling me how Aziza was doing, from eating to play time, and anything else. I loved the pictures she sent and she even cleaned out my litter genie and left the food containers cleaned on the counter. Oh, and Bethany found a great cat/bird YouTube channel for Aziza that she left on the TV while I was gone, which is something I’m going to start doing now too! Definitely will hire her again!
Allison was such a great choice! She is kind, and went above and beyond to make sure my cat was taken care of while I traveled.
Desmond loves Tiffany! She’s the best and takes care of everything! She just helped clean ants that got into the cat food! We love her :)
As always, Trinity took excellent care of my baby! This was my second time with Trinity as a sitter. She sends lots of pictures of my little fuzzball and follows her care instructions to a T :) Thank you Trinity!
Sachika was great, easy to communicate with, and took wonderful care of my cat Friday! Will definitely book her again.
Kim is the best!! She is communicative, reliable and offered me the most reassurance about my kitties when a few things didn’t quite go to plan while I was gone. Thank you Kim!!
Celeste has been a god-send for us. As a pet-parent who feels like the animals are my whole world when I’m at home, it could be even so much harder to leave them for a whole week, but with a dependable person like Celeste I can let go of it all and trust they are okay❣️ Thank you, Celeste, so so much❣️🙏
Valerie took great care of my cat, Chloe. She showed great care and patience for my sometimes reserved girl.
Great and very attentive and loving to Castor. Very effective communication. I couldn't ask for better service in caring for my pet! Thank you very much 🙏😊 Highly recommend.
Vanessa was great! She came over a few days before our trip to meet our two cats and see where everything is. She sent us photos and gave them some loving which was great to see. She did everything we asked and we came home to a clean kitty environment. Very professional and sweet. Would totally book again!
We came back home to happy and healthy cats. Communicating with Tatiana was very easy and she followed our instructions perfectly. It was a pleasure to work with her! Thank you so much! 💖🐈
I couldn’t be happier with the care my two cats received while I was away. Leyla was absolutely fantastic — not only did she feed them on time and keep their litter boxes spotless, but she also made sure they got plenty of playtime and attention. I loved getting regular photo and video updates, which really helped ease my mind and showed just how happy and comfortable my cats were. It was clear they were in great hands! My house was exactly as I left it — clean, tidy, and well looked after. It was such a relief to return home to calm, content kitties and everything in perfect order. Highly recommend Leyla to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Will definitely book again!
Really great. Lauren came to my house 2x a day for a week to check on my kitties. She even gave insulin shots to a mean old cat and made it work. Very trustworthy!
Jessica took very good care of our 2 shy kitties and sent wonderful pictures to us. She took time to give them love, and they enjoyed having her visit them. We would definitely hire her again!
Kayla did an impeccable job taking care of my cat Friday for a week! She's also a great communicator and always kept me updated about everything. It was also my first time using Rover and she made the whole process smooth and easy.
I can’t express how helpful she was. She cared for my pets while I recovered from surgeries, and she went above and beyond. My pets loved her, and she was reliable, and she took time to help me as well, as I was bedridden. Very communicative and very good with animals, especially shy ones with special needs. Highly recommend!
Stephanie is reliable, trustworthy, and very communicative during her dropin with my cat Rhylee. I look forward to booking her again and again!
Great great great job taking care of my cat mars! Such fantastic communication and helped out all around the apartment. Stephanie is for sure my go to hire!
Amanda was AMAZING for our very needy cat. She sat with him and gave him the perfect amount of love. He wants so much attention but then gets overstimulated, and Amanda knew exactly how to handle him. Plus she sent amazing photos and updates. I wholeheartedly recommend her!
Lauren was amazing! She made leaving our little guy so much easier. She kept the place super clean, litter, food and all. She showed a clear love for animals, spending quality time playing, cuddling and sending precious photos of our buddy, who was comfortable and happy. Lauren was easy to coordinate with, followed instructions and made the whole booking process a breeze. We’d highly recommend her to look after your special furry friends!
