“An absolutely wonderful caretaker. Amanda has taken care of my two boys twice now and every time I've come home, they've both been happy and healthy. I will definitely book her again if I ever need someone to care for my cats.”


“Colleen is a fabulous pet sitter. She has a ton of animal experience and knows how to get on with even my standoffish and skittish cat. She is prompt in responding and visits at regular intervals. Excellent work all around!”

“Jessica was so great with my babies! She played with them each time she visited and made sure they got lots of love. She even got my shy little guy to come out and play and get cuddles. Highly recommend Jessica! You and your furry friends won't regret it!”

“"Hailey is an absolutely fantastic dog sitter! She's incredibly dependable and always right on time for her visits with Bailey. What truly sets her apart is how she treats Bailey as if she were her own – with so much love, care, and attention. It gives me such peace of mind knowing Bailey is in such trustworthy hands. I highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a dog sitter who goes above and beyond!" ”

“Abigail was great! She was very communicative and friendly. She went above and beyond with my 80 lb pup and he loved her company. Would definitely book Abigail again!”

“Jenna did an amazing job. Showed up on time and gave our little guys a great walk while we were out. Took some adorable pictures to share with us, documented everything so we would be up-to-date when we got home. Highly recommend her and would happily book her again. If you’re looking for somebody to trust with your babies while you are away. Look no further.”

“Tara is always so amazing with my dogs. My puppy has a tendency to destroy some of her toys when I leave but Tara always comes with a creative solution to stimulate her! We very much appreciate her excellent care for our canine family members.”

About: Hi there! My name is Sammy and I currently work in Finance remotely. I've always had a love for all animals - dogs, cats, birds, frogs, fish... the list goes on. I have not had the opportunity to have my own dogs/cats in my home, but I've taken care of family & friends' pets for many years and have always given their fur babies such amazing care and attention. I am extremely detail-oriented and follow directions precisely. I'm currently working remotely so I have plenty of time to provide attentive care as often as needed during the week with lots of time for fun! Safety is my #1 priority and I will always contact you if I'm unsure of next steps. Pets are family so they will be given my full care and attention.
“Angela & Adam had great professional holiday energy for my senior kitties. They sent thorough reports and great/festive pictures that made us laugh which helped my son cause he always misses our fur babies when we are out of town. It is so refreshing to meet folks who genuinely love animals and provide top notch care!”

“Sarah was on our puppy Beau's wavelength right away, and they had a great time together. She took great care of him while she was here, with his dinner, toys and snacks. I will definitely try to get Sarah to come back!”

“Ixia was absolutely wonderful with our Pointer/Pit mix, Crimson. This was our first time using Rover, and our first time leaving our dog for an extended period of time. (We had to take a trip out of state on short notice.) From the get-go, Ixia was very professional and attentive during our phone consultation - taking notes, checking details, learning the little intricacies of Crimson's routines. Crimson also has a torn ACL, so special care has to be taken during daily activities to ensure the injury doesn't worsen. Ixia was very reliable, responsive, and communicative with us the entire time. She was on time for every visit, sent us pictures of our pup, played with her, spent lots of time in the yard, and even went above and beyond to accommodate some extra drop-ins we hadn't originally planned. We were very impressed and thankful for the loving care that she provided our animals and by her professionalism and communication. 11/10 recommend, and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future. Thank you, Ixia!”

About: I’m a pet owner who has raised two puppies from 8 weeks old, giving me firsthand experience with puppy routines, potty training, and consistent care. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. I have a lot of free time to work with. The only other job I do is Door Dash, so I can be flexible and accommodating to your schedule. I care for pets in their own home by maintaining their normal routine and environment. I follow instructions carefully, move at each pet’s pace, and provide calm, attentive care. I also keep things clean and send regular updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Kristie is the best. We’ve hired her 3 times now (and have another planned) and I shudder to think what I’ll do if she’s not available. My cats are very wary of strangers. She seems to have charmed them. 😍”

About: I've been looking after dogs and cats since I was 12! They've ranged from my grandma's shitzu to dog sitting mastiffs! I've even watched reptiles like ball pythons and geckos. I've walked, bathed, fed, watered, and loved them the whole time. I, myself, have 2 bunnies, fish, and a ball python. All together the most dogs I've ever watched at the same time was 28! It was 5 adults dogs, one puppy the equivalent to a toddler, and 22 puppies! I am willing to go to the cape and islands for house sitting! At the moment I'm hoping that pet care will become a full-time job. At the moment I am able to do any day and any time. I, sadly, do not have a cute puppy or kitty to play with your fur baby, however it just means they get more love from me! I can lift a 75 pound dog if needed and have the resources to contain one if necessary.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15! I’ve had pets all my life growing up though! My neighbors, friends, and family, have relied on me to feed, walk, play, and give cuddles to their pups! I currently am working part time as I just started a new job, so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup and get them some exercise! My home has a fenced in dog park that i’m sure your dog would love to run around in and get some energy out! If your dog is better on a leash and loves to walk and sniff around your area I am happy to do that as well! I just want to be able to give your pup a safe and happy visit 😊

Our four-month-old Golden retriever puppy was SO excited to see Sarah again! He got the puppy zoomies. She really understands puppies, and is patient, loving, and playful - and good at avoiding his land-shark puppy teeth! We - and our puppy - will look forward to seeing Sarah again.
