1. Emily L.

“Emily was fantastic with my 10 month old pup, who is usually very timid with strangers, but warmed up to Emily quickly. Emily is very reliable, kind, and would highly recommend her.”


2. Amanda V.

4. Katrina M.
“Katrina has been taking care of my pets (a dog and 2 cats) for almost 5 years. She is one of the few people I trust entirely. She will love your pets like they are her own, and I truly mean this! She is clean, reliable, trustworthy, active, and an animal person through and through. She won't just take your dog on a walk, she will take them for an ADVENTURE. My own dog loves her (more than me!) and he gets SO excited to see her. He is very high energy and she thoroughly exhausts him, to the point where he returns home very happy and tired. She will ensure each pet gets special attention and is given enough activity and love to keep them happy. Not only that, but she is communicative, responsible, timely, and mature. In 5 years I've never had a single issue or concern. She's always made my life easier and I've felt great knowing my pets were in amazing hands. If you're looking for help with your pets, she is THE person to hire. I've always come back to a cleaner house and happier pets.”

About: I’ve always loved taking care of pets. I’ve had a whole zoo of animals like a chinchilla, guinea pigs, cats, fish, dogs, rabbit, turtle, rats, you get the gist! I also volunteered at a local cat shelter for 7 years & that’s where my cats now are from. I’ll always love to take care of pets when I can! I am working full time with Rover and flexible majority of the weekend. I love being outside for walks daily and taking a furry friend along with is the best part I currently take care of an adult 3 year old male tabby cat. He loves his routine of being fed in the morning and playing throughout the day with his owners!


6. Amanda M.

“Amanda was so great with my dog, Louie! He looked so happy in every picture she sent and I could tell when I got home that he was well taken care of while I was gone. We will for sure be using her again in the future. 10/10 recommend!!”


7. Maggie L.

8. Ashley R.

“Our two Pups (Misty and Maiden) were so well cared for and enjoyed the time they spent with Ashley! We returned from vacation and the house was spotless, the pups happy and energized. I would recommend Ashley for house sitting.”


9. Brittany E.
“We have a French Bulldog, Maple, that is a year and a half old and we’ve used Brittany on several occasions for pet sitting/dog walking. Maple loves her and she always pays special attention to her during walks in the park, playing fetch and makes sure she’s fed and has water when she’s finished. Brittany is friendly, caring, trustworthy, and Maple loves her! Highly recommend her!”

With her experience with working at a veterinarian clinic she is able to look out for your animals health as well. You will experience nothing but kindness and respect when doing business with her!”


18. Maritza L.
“Maritza and her husband Gareth an exceptional pet sitter. They have looked after our dog Kona on numerous occasions and when we return, Kona is sad for them to leave! They are an active pair who are always going on walks and discovering new parks and paths. Once when Kona was ill and we needed her to administer medicine, she followed instruction perfectly and we knew Kona was in great hands.”


19. Kayla K.
About: I love all animals and especially dogs! Trying to save up some money and no better way to do that than to take care of your fur babies! I'm comfortable with almost all animals but have the most experience with dogs. I’m fur mama to my baby Bella (beagle mix). I've had 3 basset hounds and multiple rescue pups from the shelter in my lifetime (personal and family pets). I'm open to the possibility of boarding pets if they are well-behaved/trained, comfortable in new settings, do well with my dog, and are kennel trained. I am available for house-sitting if my pup can come along and depending on my schedule. Please let me know if you have any questions and I look forward to caring for your pets! I work Monday - Friday, and try to work from home a few days a week. My flexibility varies. Depending on needs and distance from work, I can accommodate requests. I have never met a dog or many animals I am not fast friends with. Even those that struggle with anxiety or are a bit scared.
