“Emily was fantastic! From the first point of contact, she was professional, kind, and very responsive. We had a great meet and greet prior to her stay at our home and she brought such a calm and comfortable energy around our doggos. We appreciated how communicative she was while we were away for the long weekend, taking great care of our pups and house and sending plenty of updates along the way. We would highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for an experienced, professional sitter. We will certainly look to book her again in the future!”

“Brooke was very professional and responsive. She arrived promptly and followed our care instructions for Ernie. Based on the pictures she sent, he had a great time with her this weekend!”

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up and I love them. I have been working the last 3 years dog sitting off and on for a family. I just graduated college with my Bachelors in social work. I am currently online and working towards my Masters in social work. I would love to help your family take care of your dogs.I have experience with dogs in any stage of life from puppies to seniors. I just graduated with my Bachelors in Social Work. I start my Masters program online in August. I will have plenty of time to relax and give your pets all the attention they need. I will keep your pets safe while in your home by watching them when outside to make sure they stay safe. I will keep them away from any harmful substances that may be outside and in the house. At times I take my finance or friend with me for my own person peace of mind especially when it’s late at night.
“Janell was absolutely wonderful! We have five pets (two large dogs and three cats) who, while all lovely, can be a lot to manage all together. Janell took everything in stride and was an excellent caretaker while we were out of town! She was extremely communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and was very conscientious about their care. She also was very respectful of our home and left everything in great shape! There’s nothing better than knowing your pets are in good hands while you’re out of town and coming home to a happy and cared for crew, and Janell definitely fits that bill. We would absolutely have her watch our pets again!”

“My first time using Rover, and I’ll definitely be using it again thanks to Christina. Being 600 miles away from my pet and leaving her with a complete stranger had my mind worried but quickly eased with how well Christina was taking care of my Bella”


“Ashley was great with our two dogs. We had a last minute need and Ashley came by the night before to meet our dogs and arrived the next day on time and took great care of them. Great experience from start to finish!!”

“Hannah has been great to watch our dog multiple times when we are out of town. She is reliable with good communication throughout the stay. We will continue to reach out to her!”

“Kimberly was so good with our little cat! She was so kind and took great care of our home and fur baby! She even gave our cat who doesn’t isn’t good with medication her meds twice a day and sent us pics of our baby while we were on vacation! Will absolutely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve been passionate about animals my entire life and bring a deep understanding of dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments to every pet I care for. I have experience with both puppies and adult dogs, and I’m comfortable adapting to a wide range of energy levels, personalities, and behavioral needs including behaviors such as resource guarding. Whether your dog thrives on structure, needs extra patience, or has a more outgoing and playful nature, I take the time to get to know them individually so I can engage with them in the way that suits them best. I understand that every dog and household has its own routines and expectations, and I’m committed to following any specific instructions or precautions to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and also very outgoing, which helps me build trust with dogs while keeping them happy and engaged. I’m also able to administer oral medications if needed and am attentive to any health or behavioral cues. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own—with care, respect, and genuine love. I’m new to the area and currently planning my wedding, which gives me a very flexible schedule to dedicate to pet care. Because I’m not working a traditional 9–5 right now, I’m available during weekdays, evenings, and for overnight stays—making it easy for me to give your pets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I have experience caring for pets with a wide range of distinct temperaments and understand how important it is to recognize and respect each animal’s unique personality and needs. I’m very mindful of the routines, boundaries, and safety measures that help pets feel secure, and I make it a priority to follow them closely. I treat every home with the same respect and care as I would my own, and I approach each pet as if they were my own as well. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care while maintaining the natural flow of your home and your pet’s routine—ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away and that you feel comfortable as well.
About: Have been around dogs my entire life. I have siblings with multiple dogs and whenever they are out of town I am always the one they have watch them. Currently just graduated and I don’t start my job until June. I’m free all times of the day and any day of the week works. Spend time with them and make sure they’re are staying out of trouble. Treat every animal the right way when taking care of them at all times.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. I’ve always had animals in my household. Neighbors, family, and friends have always trusted me to watch their furry friends while they were away. I work part time at a school from august to may. I have plenty of time every day at home to watch and play with your animals. I have a large fenced in yard for my dogs at home. I live with parents so my dogs have multiple people to let them out and play when needed. In clients homes I let them out often and I am able to walk them and play with them frequently.
“Andrew was an absolute godsend while we were away!!! He took the BEST care of our dog, and sent us cute photos and videos each day! He truly listened to what we wanted for our dog (who is older and a little stubborn) and went above and beyond in terms of caring for her like his own beloved pet. He checked in with us to ensure that we were ok with certain things, and did an amazing job of keeping us reassured that things were all a-ok, which was particularly nice since it was our first time experiencing an in-home pet sitter. He left our house in nicer condition than when we left it. I’m pretty sure my dog misses him now that we are home! We have already told him we will be using his services again in the future!!!”

“Chandler was amazing to work with and so communicative with me throughout the process! He sent so many wonderful photos and videos and made me feel great leaving my pets in his hands!”

“Once again - Sarah did an amazing job! She communicated well and took wonderful care of our fur babies and our home. She even helped with some gardening! Sarah is welcome anytime!!”

About: I've taken care of pets all of my life. From puppies all the way up to seniors. I love them all. They all need someone to care for them and feel the extra love especially when their normal family is away. I'm currently flexible and can fit pet care into my daily routine. Occasionally, I will pick up an additional job. But that shouldn't interrupt with taking care of what I love to do and that is to take care of fur babies. I would rather take care of your pets in their environment due to the fact that they are most comfortable there. I also have two fur babies of my own. But I feel as if fur babies are normally happy in their own surroundings.
About: Being an energetic and patient person, your pets will thrive in my care, getting loved like they are my own. I have many years of experience w/ dogs & cats, a couple reptiles, and an occasional hamster. Not having any pets of my own, and being an empty nester, I have a very flexible schedule as well. I am now an empty nester, with no pets of my own, so my schedule is very flexible. I can happily provide short- or long-term care for your pets. I will ensure that your pet is loved and kept safe from harm. I can also give your pet a bath if needed, take them on walks and/or runs, give medication and lots of snuggles!
About: I grew up with cats, rescued mutts, and Great Danes. As an adult I had 2 cats. After they passed, I decided I would foster or pet sit! I have experience with puppies, kittens, and adults! I currently regularly pet sit 2 different pit mixes. One is high energy and the other has a lot medical needs. I am comfortable with sleeping with the pet or crating. I am also comfortable and experienced with administering medication. I am able to basically move into your home to help provide consistent care, other than doctors appts I will be in the home with your pets! I will inform you of any preplanned times the pet would be alone before accepting the job. I currently work 8-6 Tuesday and Wednesday pet sitting, taking care of a preschooler and doing housework. I am also part of team of family members that care for our elderly and fragile grandparents. I am also a fiber artist (crochet and knitting) and sell my projects online and at 4-8 hour craft markets some weekends. I’m able to work my schedule around your needs EXCEPT for Tues and Wens DAYS! I have a lot experience with special medical needs pets. This has made me vigilant in assuring multiple times a day that the pets environment is free from risks. I makes sure they are comfortable, and try hard to keep them relaxed as being with a stranger can cause stress.

About: I have always grown up with animals! I have trained all of my families dogs and am familiar with puppies and senior dogs with special needs. I would love to walk your dogs, practice tricks, or just hangout with them! I work part time so I will have ample time to spend with your best friend! my schedule is very flexible. I also love staying active with running and hiking, so I am always happy to take high-energy pups along with me to burn off some steam. I exclusively provide care in my clients' homes so that your pets can stay completely relaxed in their familiar environment. I am deeply respectful of your personal space and will strictly follow all of your house rules and pet routines. Whether we are cuddling inside or heading out for a brisk walk, your pet's safety and happiness are my absolute top priorities.
