“Mya was absolutely wonderful! She visited my cats right on time every day. She went the extra mile by sending me adorable pictures and giving me thorough updates on their activities and well-being. What amazed me most was how quickly my fur babies connected with her, even from the very first visit. Normally, they take a while to warm up and come out from under the bed, but with Mya, they trusted her right away. This made my vacation so much more relaxing and enjoyable, knowing they were in such caring hands. I'll definitely be booking with Mya again. Big thanks to you, Mya! ❤️”

“Callie has put in the effort over time to become one of my cat’s favorite people! She makes sure to give him what he needs, whether it’s extra cuddles or extra clicker training sessions which is so reassuring while I’m away.”



“Jeannette provides great updates and so much peace of mind that our cat is in great hands. On top of taking great care of pets, she takes great pictures as well!”


“Lauren was great with Floy! She stopped in to give him dinner and visit. I got photo updates and just knew he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Lauren and will rebook her”

“Liam is outstanding — he’s super communicative and attentive to detail. I forgot to mention that my old buddy has a slight limp because of his arthritis and Liam was allll over it to make sure he was ok/it wasn’t a new injury. Easy to schedule with and great with Moose, will absolutely book again!”


“Ashton was amazing with my cat! I was a little nervous leaving, but she made the whole experience completely stress-free. She sent regular updates, and I could tell my cat was happy and well cared for. My cat is usually scared and shy with strangers but with Ashton, he was playful and looked very comfortable. It’s obvious Ashton genuinely loves animals and takes the time to make them feel comfortable. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Ashton again next time I need a sitter”



“I recently hired Annika to take care of my cat for the first time, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! My cat liked her and formed a good connection. Annika’s calm and gentle approach immediately put my cat at ease, and they quickly bonded. Seeing my cat connect with her was reassuring, as his well-being is my top priority. Throughout the pet-sitting period, Annika provided exceptional care ensuring my cat's needs were met. Annika went the extra mile by engaging my cat in interactive play sessions and providing him with affection and companionship. I highly recommend Annika as a cat pet sitter. Her professionalism, genuine love for animals, and ability to form a great connection with my cat were outstanding. Thank you Annika!”


“Sage brings such a warm and loving energy! This is the first time we’ve had anyone do a Drop in visit and my dog coco is obsessed with her! She was so prompt with communication, met coco a few days before and even dropped in to make sure him and I are comfortable. We walked back home with an extremely happy coco who looked like he’s had a great time!”


“Alexander has been great with my RR’s. They are a handful and large and he is patient. He has been reliable over multiple visits and I don’t hesitate to recommend him.”

“We booked a week-long request with Sydney, with morning/evening visits. We were nervous to be away from our cat for so many days, but Sydney provided many updates and pictures during their time together that we knew he was spending quality time with a kind friend. I’m sure our cat is excited to see Sydney again for the next time she visits, she is very caring and in tune with his needs!”


About: Almost all of my experience as a dog owner and sitter is with dogs that have come from shelters or other adopted situations. I have owned “retired” greyhounds that were severely traumatized, I have cared for small dogs with unknown, but clearly extremely difficult, past traumas, and I have stayed and bonded with boxers and pit bulls who are slow to trust but then become bed-hogging cuddlers! Recently, I had my first experience helping train a puppy! I spent five months with a family and their sweet cavipoo house training and leash training. I teach from home and so I am always home! Well, except for the occasional errand, appointment, etc. So, I would love the extra company and the excuse to get out of the house and get some exercise! I live in an apartment building so I do not have a fenced yard. However, I live on Lafayette Park where I walk daily. It is incredibly safe and I have gotten to know many of the pet parents in the building and the neighborhood. I have two five month old kittens that I adopted from a foster home two months ago where they lived with a dog. I am hoping to keep them exposed to other animals so that when I have a larger place, I will be able to expand my family of pets.

“Our dogs love Dana! We knew our dogs were in great hands while we were out. Dana was right on time and sent us updates and pictures. We were a little nervous leaving because our one pup doesn’t like thunder and storms were in the area, but Dana was great and made sure Cento wasn’t scared. 😊”



About: I'm a young professional that works from home and have some extra free time and LOVE caring for dogs. So this is the perfect opportunity for me and I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs on Rover, after graduating from undergrad I took up dog sitting and I have watched homes and pets while family is out of town since then. I am very flexible and reliable and would have a great time with your pet! Why I love dog sitting: I had a dog who I was extremely close with and since his passing I miss a dog's companionship. Because of school and work I'm not able to take care of a dog full time so in the meantime I would love to keep yours company! I’m currently working from home and on my own schedule so I have plenty of time to take your pup on walks and give them lots of attention! How I care for pets varies on the individual pup or cat. Every one of them have their own special needs so I will be sure to be informed and have notes on the stay before booking.

About: I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats and horses, so animals have always been a part of my life! Besides helping out with our own animals, I worked at a dressage barn throughout high school and showed horses throughout college. I have also taken care of family and friend's dogs and cats for extended periods of time. Pets have influenced my entire life and I understand the importance of every pet's health, safety and happiness. Besides caring for my own cat, I have an open schedule to give your pet the care and attention they deserve! My calendar is flexible to meet your pet-sitting needs. I currently do not offer pet sitting services at my home, but I am excited for the opportunity to take care of pets at a client's home. I prefer to meet the pet and go over the pet's needs with an owner prior to the owner being gone, so that I'm aware of the pet's environment and how I can best take care of the pet while their owner is away.

About: My family has always had dogs and from the age of about 8 I helped to potty train, crate train and care for 3 dogs. I've given many baths, administered lots of medication, clipped many nails and cleaned up many accidents. I've cared for senior dogs, puppies and everything in between. Now I have a dog all to my own and she thrives everyday! She's potty trained and crate trained and knows her basic manners and how to shake paws. I really just love dogs and would love the opportunity to make someone's pet feel special and cared for in their absence! I work from home, so I'm always at home with my own pet. I'm very flexible and free just about any time. I have reliable transportation and am always timely. I carefully follow all instructions left by pet parents and if I feel uncomfortable or unclear, I will always reach out to ask for guidance. I personally never walk my own dog off leash, as I worry about her safety and the safety of others, so I would always keep your dog on a leash. I love the dog park but if that is not your dog's speed, I love leisurely on leash strolls as well. I walk my own dog about an hour everyday so I'm always free to help get your puppy some exercise! I always carry water on walks and know when dogs get overwhelmed and/or tired.

About: Years ago, I got my dog as a 10 week old puppy and we've trained and thrived together ever since! I often look after family friend's dogs, and have gotten experience caring for dogs at animal rescues. I have a full time job with flexible hours. I am finished in the early afternoon most days, and would like to help fur families with my free time! My home has plenty of room for play time, with lots comfort for relaxation and bed time. I own two medium crates if they are required. Your animals will always have access to water and are fed on their regular schedule!
