“We went on a last minute day trip to Disney and had no one to let the dogs out and feed them. Karin came to the house twice even in the rain! I couldn't ask for a better sitter.”


“Daisy is so wonderful with our cats! We appreciate the great communication and pictures she shares. We would definitely use her again and again.”

“Sherri is the best, I am so happy to have found her on Rover! Sherri listened and noted all of our pet care instructions ( my pets have distinct needs) and followed them implicitly. Her care, focus and follow up for my fur kids is perfection!”


“Aimee was great with Wilson while I was away for the holidays. She sent great reports and a lot of pictures. I’d love to book her again in the future”


“Kiana was amazing with my older kitty. Shelby doesn't need any medication, but she does get anxious when mama is away. She's just super sensitive. But Kiana gave her lots of love and snuggles, and was great at sending me updates with lots of pictures every day. Highly recommend!”

“Thank you for stopping by during the holidays, you helped my holidays go better by taking great care of Chairman Meow.”



“Denise does a great job of caring for and playing with our cats. She takes great photos every visit, and goes above and beyond regularly (sweeping clean a litter room a cat made extra dirty or make sure to find cats in hidden spots each visit).”



“Marsha was GREAT! I needed someone to check on my cats while I was on vacation and she did a great job cleaning litter, ensuring they had adequate food and water and keeping in touch with me. She has great experience with cats and I highly recommend Marsha and will definitely use her again!”


About: I grew up with an amazing cockapoo, and often dog-sat for my neighbors Bernese mountain dog! I now own two amazing kitties who I adore. They are two sisters and are my failed fosters :) I am available anytime on Saturday and Sundays, and during the week I am available after 5 PM to check in on pets, walk dogs, give medication, or whatever is needed! I currently am not doing pet boarding in my home so this question doesn’t necessarily apply to me as I’m only doing drop in visits!

“Brianna kept us informed on a daily basis for our three cats. It was good to see they were in the care of someone who really cares about animals! We will definitely be using her again.”


About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life. Currently have two Great Danes so I am comfortable with a any size! I'm starting my fitness journey so let's get those steps in! I'm available full time as I'm in between jobs for a couple of months. My current schedule is very flexible while my kids are at daycare. I'm responsible, and will follow any instructions needed for your pets care. I prefer to care for pets in their own home as my dogs are not very social I cannot bring any pets over.

“Just a follow up as have been continuing to use Nathan to keep an eye on my cat Tom while I’m away and each time he is always punctual and follows instructions as requested and Tom seems to still like him :-) Can’t say but all good things! Thank You!!”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and patience for dogs of all ages and needs. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs, including following specific feeding or exercise routines. I treat every dog like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I build my schedule around it to ensure each pet gets the attention and care they need. Whether it’s morning feedings, afternoon playtime, or evening walks and check-ins, I stay consistent and reliable. I enjoy the routine and the bond that comes from spending quality time with animals every day. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of play and cuddle time, and stick to any walking, medication, or cleaning schedules provided. I keep the home tidy, send regular updates, and treat the space with respect—just like I would my own. My goal is to give both pets and owners peace of mind while they’re apart.

“Suilen took great care of our dog for the day. She was super accommodating to our requests and sent lots of videos and photos of their time together. Highly recommend - we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”


“Kaylie did great! Will be hiring her again.”


“Julia was great!! Our senior dog was a being a bit difficult for her (not wanting to go out) so Julia reached out right away to ask for suggestions, but was able to win her over before we got a chance to respond! We would definitely book with Julia again :)”
