“Another wonderful job by Amanda! Our elder dog Chelsea was getting over not feeling well and Amanda cared for her like she was her own. She gave lots of feedback and pics. Showered our Chelsea Girl with attention. Will book again!”

“Hands down best dog sitter I’ve ever had. I’ve never felt more comfortable leaving my baby with anyone else. I received photos and updates throughout the day and the experience with dogs was unmatched. Thank you! Will definitely use again!!!”

About: I have had many different kinds of animals my whole life. From reptiles, dogs, cats and birds. I love animals more than people. I know a lot about dog training also and can administer meds. I am very flexible and have a pretty open schedule. I can do daily check ins or even every few days. Whatever you need I can make happen I will care for the animal in your home. I can play, walk, clean, feed, give meds and am open to any care you may need.

“Staci is wonderful. We just did a trial run for a longer trip and it worked out great! We have three dogs, one of whom is very difficult and she really was able to accommodate and work through his quirks. We also felt relaxed and appreciated her photos and updates.”

“Trisha graciously watched my 2 older dogs at the last minute in my home. She was an amazing houseguest, and was incredible with my visually impaired dog who requires various daily medications. My other grumpy dog took to Trisha immediately, which is remarkable as he can be stingy with his affection. Thank you Trisha and we all look forward to seeing you again soon.❤️”

“This is atleast the forth time Anthony And Melanie have stayed at the house during our trips taking magnificent care of Ollie. The are kind, pet knowledgeable and Ollie adores them! No worries when they are here looking after Ollie. Barbars and Frank Navetta”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for 8+ years. My experience includes puppies, full grown dogs, elderly dogs, kittens, & full grown cats. I also have experience in making sure they receive any medications they may need to take. I work remotely, so I can/will be at the house all day, making sure your fur babies are not alone for hours on end and getting plenty of love and attention. I am a very clean house guest. I clean up after myself as well as the animals and respect any boundaries the homeowner may put in place. I make sure to clean the kitchen & bathroom before I leave and will even wash/change the sheets on the bed if requested. ***Please note that I require a meet & greet with you and your pet(s) prior to the care starting***
“There are not enough stars to fully convey our feelings of how we felt leaving our Newfoundland, Shih Tzu, chickens and fish with people we had only just met. Emma and Trent were exactly how they described themselves in their Rover Profile. Reagan immediately found Trent’s lap and Peaches was xheckinf out Emma for treats.❤️ Peaches and Reagan were treated exactly how we wanted them to be treated. Even though we couldn’t include the fact we had chickens (and fish) in our Rover profile, Emma and Trent were very receptive to including them in their daily care routines. We communicated on a regular basis using our Group Chat and Emma & Trent were kind enough to send some great pix of the “girls”. I’m sure their time with the girls and staying at our home will be as memorable for them as it was for us. Two days into our trip/their stay, they were hit with a blizzard that dropped 24” of snow. Although our home is beautiful when it snows, they were snowed in. It took 2 days before we could get them shoveled out. They had to clear a pathway for the dogs to go out along with a few other areas. And as if that wasn’t enough, one of the biggest trees in our yard fell onto the chicken coops outdoor area and destroyed it along with the chain link fence. They said they heard a tremendous sound and then they saw it. It was unbelievable. We were able to get my son to check it out to ensure it was secured from predators and that none of the chickens were hurt. Thank goodness was everyone was fine. We highly recommend Emma and Trent to care for your pets and your home and will definitely use their services again. Thank you both!”

“Melissa is simply amazing. We have re-booked her over 10 times for home visits and home sitting our pet, Scott. We all were going on an international trip of ~10 days and we were worried since this was the first time we using someone’s services to stay at home and take care of Scott. Punctuality is Melissa’s virtue and Scott was absolutely comfortable with her. All those 10 days, we were very peaceful and Melissa ensured, with pictures and videos of Scott, that we were always in touch! A very big shout out to Melissa for a fantastic service!”

About: I am a full time employee in an assisted living. I had my sweet dachshund for 17 years, and caring for her through her senior years taught me how to care and keep senior pets happy. Now I have a happy, energetic bernedoodle and two adorable bunnies at my parents house and always miss now that I am away. I I have been around both small and large dogs all of my life. Growing up I constantly house sat, fed and watered pets while my neighbors were away for pocket money. I look forward to becoming your dog’s new favorite sitter! I have work till 5pm and then the rest of the day I have time to take care of your pets. When I lived with my pets I would let them out in the yard in the mornings and as soon as I would get home. I made sure to give them attention and affection everyday. I have dealt with senior dogs and am well aware of their limits. It is my promise that I will make any dog of any age as comfortable and as happy as possible.

About: I am an experienced dog walker, and pet owner. I was a Rover walker and dog care friend from 2017 to 2019. After taking time off to attend graduate school, and a pandemic, I am happy to continue taking care of human's best friends again. I've taken care all kinds of dogs, from Siberian Huskies, to bulldogs, to cocker spaniels, beagles, and the young and then the young at heart. My own family's dog is a five-year-old English Bulldog/Beagle mix, Rooney (pictured here as a pup). I currently work full time from home. I love staying active and have a car for easy transportation. If you are interested in doggy-day care, I prefer you request it at least 24 hours in advance. Especially for those circumstances, I prefer to have a meet and greet with you and your dog if possible, to see if we are good fits for each other. Thank you for choosing me to care for your best friend. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am home most of the time because I work virtually. As long as I can schedule it beforehand, I can drive to you for walkings. I currently do not board, but in your home I will treat it with the utmost respect as I would my own. I always oblige to my client's wishes in how their dog plays a part in their home.
“Tricia was awesome! She was available last minute and went above and beyond while watching my pup. I have a very anxious pup and Tricia’s updates and photos helped me feel completely at ease while I was away. Highly recommend! I will definitely be booking again shortly!!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine a home without them. Growing up with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and routines at every stage of life. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve regularly babysat dogs for family members and friends, providing dependable, loving care while they’re away. From daily walks and playtime to feeding schedules and cuddle sessions, I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable in my care. I currently have open availability, which means I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. While my schedule is very flexible, I do ask for advance notice whenever possible so I can plan accordingly and ensure I’m fully prepared to give your pet the best experience. I’m happy to accommodate weekdays, weekends, and extended stays! Your pet’s safety and comfort are super important to me! I offer a calm, loving home where pets are treated just like part of the family. I have one friendly Chihuahua and a curious little ferret who are both used to being around other animals. I always take introductions slowly and supervise to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and set up so pets can relax, play, and feel at ease. You can trust that your pet will get lots of attention, affection, and a safe place to stay while you’re away.
“Kaileigh took excellent care of our pups while we were away for a summer wedding. She was very attentive, sent lots of photos and made sure they were well cared for. Highly recommend!”

“Wonderful with our older dogs with separation anxiety. She sat with them at our rental while we visited family in the area. Communicative, punctual, and a warm personality. Will ask her to dogsit again.”

“☆☆☆☆☆ It was a blessing to find Sharon. She was truly wonderful. She gave great care to our pets and our home. She kept a pet journal and sent photos and videos of our two dogs. She brought in the mail, kept an eye on the place and alerted us to any issues. We will definitely use Sharon again.”

“Kathy stayed with my senior dog and my cat for a few days and followed all instructions and took care of them very well ! She left me updates and the place was exactly how I left it when I got back from my lil vacation! Definitely recommend and would hire her again :)”

Amanda was great with our kitties while we were away on vacation! She sent lots of updates with photos/videos and was very respectful of our space. Amanda went above and beyond during meal times as our kitties need to be separated and can be picky eaters. I would highly recommend Amanda for any of your pet care needs!
