“Shiyuan was absolutely amazing! We received constant updates and photos about our dog . She went above and beyond … she was always sending us updates on when he ate, how much he ate, potty breaks and even when his nap schedule. It was so nice to not have to worry and be confident that he was being well taken care of. I will definitely use her again.”
“Cammi stayed at our home and watched our bulldog for 4 days, and she was excellent! We came back to a clean home and a happy dog. Would have her back in a heartbeat!”
“Nicholas did an amazing job house sitting for our dog and cat. He was responsive, respectful and made sure he understood our instructions prior to the sit. He sent us photos and an update daily and went above and beyond for the comfort of our pets. They will be so excited to see him again the next time we leave town!”
“Absolutely wonderful. Took care of my energetic puppy, my socially awkward doggo and my very weird cat with no problem. Left the place just as she found it and was an amazing communicator. They and I cant wait till she comes back. So appreciate!”
About: I grew up with dogs, so caring for them is second nature to me. I am able to do basic grooming as well as bathing! I helped raise my family's current dog, taking her on walks as well as training her. I am not a certified trainer, but I had fun training her and found it relatively easy! I have experience with both large/extra large dogs as well as small dogs, with varying activity levels. I am currently home from college for summer break. I have church on Sunday mornings as well as karate Monday evenings, but other than that I am free to care for your fur babies! I am open and willing to adapt to the needs of your fur babies to the best of my ability. I have experience with fenced in yards and e-collars/invisible fences.
About: I have had dogs in my life for many years now! I adore dogs. My family has own three goldens, one German Shepard, and one black lab! I’ve cared for them my whole life, including feeding, bathing, playing with them, working on training, etc. I work part-time until school starts in the fall. I have tons of time to see and play with your babies! I have my own form of transportation so I’m accessible at all times of the day! I will always make sure to ask questions when I’m not sure on something because I know how nerve racking it can be to leave your baby with someone you don’t know. I will also always double check any instructions to make sure I’m doing things perfectly to ensure nothing goes wrong. I am always up for playing with them and cuddling whenever they allow me to.
“Rohit has pretty much become Rocco and Lilo's favorite person! We have never been away from them without feeling guilty, until having him stay with them. They were happy and well cared for and the pictures he sent were so good for our hearts. I hesitate to tell you all how wonderful he is, because we want to hog him;)”
“This was our third time using megan and we love her. Very efficient, always on time, sends lots of photos and the animals love her! Would recommend for any future animal sitting you need!”
“Sarah took such amazing care of our dog, two cats, and home while we were out of town. She provided picture updates throughout the day. I didn’t have to worry at all about my babies while we were gone. Her communication was top notch. I will definitely use Sarah again!”
“Diane was a fantastic sitter! She was amazing and easy to work with throughout the process. She stayed in my home while I traveled and my deeply anxious rescue dog and my cats never missed me. Diane kept me informed while I was away, followed all my instructions, and my pets were safe and happy in my absence. I look forward to hiring her again. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her or rebook her. She’s truly a thoughtful and special person who will care for your pets so you can relax while you’re away.”
“Tyra did a great job watching my dog and house this weekend. Roxky isn’t always the easiest with new people, but he took to her right away, which says a lot. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos, so I always knew he was doing well. She also left a really nice, detailed summary of her stay,what they did together, his eating schedule, and bathroom routine,which was actually fun to read and showed how much attention she gave him. On top of that, the house was exactly how I left it. Overall just a super easy, stress-free experience. I’d definitely book with her again.”
“Jennifer was such and amazing dog sitter for our two Australian Shepherds. We had a chaotic week before a trip we had planned for months. Both our dogs had to go to the vet for paw injuries that required them to be in cones and kept separate. On top of that our first sitter we had planned did not show up for our meet and greet before our trip. We booked Jennifer the night before our trip and she responded immediately and ask if she could come over within an hour to meet the dogs. She paid extreme attention to detail when we told her all she would have to do with our dogs and asked a ton of questions which really helped to ease our stress. While we were gone she sent us regular updates with photos of our dogs which also eased our worries. All in all Jennifer was punctual, professional and very caring toward our pups and the special situation. I would strongly recommend her to anyone.”
“I will DEFINITELY use Josiah as often as possible! He followed all my instructions and my dog absolutely loved him. My beagle suffers from separation anxiety, and it's hard to find someone who not only compassionately understands his needs, but also with whom my dog feels comfortable and secure! When I arrived home, my dog was sleeping at Josiah's side. I think I finally found a perfect match!”
“Rebekkah was amazing with Tucker. We had some very serious health issues occur while she was sitting for him, and she handled everything with kindness, grace, and professionalism. Her communication was great. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
About: I've had both cats and dogs as family members for many years. Now I currently love my family and friends' pets as if they were my own. I currently work in the office 4 days per week but can leave after 4 hours and be home around noon. I'm a home body so I'm comfortable snuggling and spending playtime with your pets. I usually watch my friends and family's pets in the comfort of their own homes. I often have their pets at my home as well but usually for short periods, though sometimes overnight. I usually initiate playtime and welcome snuggling.
“Taylor is fantastic! She took wonderful care of out pets. She kept me updated and sent photos. We came home and found our pets extremely well cared for and house clean and orderly. The next time we travel I will ask Taylor to stay with our pets again.”
About: I have worked for a doggy daycare, caring for large and small dogs. (Special needs included) I currently work at a pet store and have worked for the company for 10 years. I love all animals. I am currently working full time and am looking for something on the side. I am willing to work around people's schedules and make adjustments if needed. I am able to take pets to the dog park (if requested), nature trail walks, or just spending time with them. I have access to a self dog wash if the pet gets a bit messy.

Taylor took care of our dogs and our home for over a week while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept in regular contact, sending updates and photos that made it easy to relax knowing everything was going well. It was clear she spent real quality time with the dogs, not just stopping by for the basics. They were happy, well cared for, and completely comfortable when we got back. Our house was also in great shape, which we really appreciated. I would absolutely recommend Taylor to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking her again in the future.
Sarah was excellent with my 2 dogs and their very diverse and specific needs. She was always on time, was very kind and patient with my dogs. She made sure my house was clean as well. My dog peed in the crate and on the carpet probably due to anxiety but she cleaned up everything and made sure to ease my dog and make him comfortable. She made sure they ate food. My husky was hesitant the 1st day but she came out with her own ways to make her eat the next day. Definitely recommend her. Thank u Sarah. My dogs love u and we love u
Tyra was absolutely wonderful with our Australian Shepherd, Guster, and our two cats, Cece and Ted. She stayed at our home for the weekend, and we came back to happy pets and a spotless house. Guster can be high‑energy, but Tyra handled him with so much patience and enthusiasm. She also made sure Cece and Ted got plenty of attention, which is no small task with two very different cat personalities. Her communication was excellent—regular updates, photos, and quick responses. We felt completely at ease the entire time we were away. We would trust Tyra with our pets and our home anytime. Highly recommend.
This was my first time using Rover, and my expectations were beyond succeeded with Nick! After meeting Nick I was quickly at ease of trusting him with our fur family and our home while we went away on a family vacation. He is super organized, professional, and communication with him leading up to and while we were gone was great, not to mention I'm pretty sure our pups genuinely missed Nick after we came home! I could not ask for anything more, thank you Nick!!!
Rachel was absolutely wonderful. She made me feel completely comfortable and confident that my babies were in the best hands, which allowed me to fully focus on my business while traveling. I would give her ten stars if I could. Truly exceptional care and communication from start to finish. I will absolutely be a repeat booker.
Jasmine was so so wonderful with my dog! She stayed for 5 nights and she was beyond accommodating, attentive and communicative. I got to see how excited he was to see Jasmine and it spoke volumes to how well she took care of him - already have plans to rebook!!
Rohit has pretty much become Rocco and Lilo's favorite person! We have never been away from them without feeling guilty, until having him stay with them. They were happy and well cared for and the pictures he sent were so good for our hearts. I hesitate to tell you all how wonderful he is, because we want to hog him;)
Brit just finished house sitting and caring for our elderly cat. As usual, she did a fantastic job - administering meds, and adjusting to our cat's unusual sleep habits and otherwise odd routines. Brit and Isaiah left our house cleaner than when we left it, too!
Alexandra was absolutely wonderful!! She took excellent care of George. She sent us photos everyday which we really appreciated! She made George’s day by giving him a daily walk. She stepped up when he needed some extra care after a medical procedure. She also took great care of our home. We would love to have Alexandra again and would highly recommend her.
