“Did a great job managing our house full of animals while we were away for two weeks. We came home to happy healthy animals, and I could tell they'd been well-cared for!”


“Keisha was amazing! She helped us out when another sitter cancelled. She took amazing care of our 2 dogs while we were away! She was very responsive, sent lots of pictures, and kept us posted the whole weekend! She truly understood and embraced my dog’s personalities! I would highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future!”



“Another fabulous week of Blythe watching our pups! We were nervous to leave our puppy, but Blythe was amazing with her. So happy to have someone we trust in our home when we can’t be there!”


“My cats do not like anyone but Nimbus loved her. Even looked for her after she was done watching them. There was also the added task of keeping my fish alive and they were all there when I got home. As long as Emily isn't busy, she will probably be watching the cats again.”


“Rachel was absolutely amazing! She was really great at communicating and sending lots of pictures throughout the stay. Most notably, she went above and beyond to care for my dog when she was dealing with anxiety while I was gone by going for more walks and time at the dog park. All in all, she will be my sitter of choice whenever I go out of town.”


“Madolyn did an amazing job with our fur babies! You can see how much she loves animals with the way she interacts and cares for them. I hired Madolyn to house sit and watch our dogs. She gave regular updates on the girls, and took such good care of our home. This turned out to be a fantastic outcome, and I recommend Madolyn to anyone looking for a caring, respectful, and trustworthy sitter. We will definitely have Madolyn back!!!!”


“Patricia does a great job with our crazy cat! Would highly recommend if you need someone who provides special care for your pet. We don’t worry if Patricia is there.”


“Quazaye and our dog Deetz connected the first time they meet. She had a definite concern for our dog. We were out of the area for four days. During that time we were comfortable that Quazaye was taking care of our pet. After we arrived home I noticed that Deetz was laying by the front door apparently waiting for Quazaye a sure sign that she had taken very good care of him. We would definitely consider using the services of Rover and Quazaye in the future if needed.”


“Michelle was absolutely amazing when she stayed with our dogs! She sent lots of pictures and updates and let me know how things were going! Our dogs loved her and we will definitely being having Michelle dog sit again!”


“I would recommend Kelsey for dog sitting and house sitting 1000%. She stayed in my home for 6 days and looked after my nervous, skittish dog so well that I actually enjoyed my trip and never worried about him or the house while I was gone. She kept my dog on his meal, med, and walk schedule, made adjustments based on a dangerous heatwave, and kept him company while giving him the space he needed to relax. I got photos and updates everyday and Kelsey was always quick to respond to any communication. I came home to a healthy and happy puppy and a well cared for house. I am looking forward to leaving things in Kelsey's very capable hands on my next trip!”


“Alexandra was a great sitter. She communicated with me often and asked any questions she was unsure about. She handled our energetic pups needs very well and we have no doubt that Winnie and Moose loved her.”



About: Since I was born I've been around dogs. I experienced my first special need pet with my own pup who became epileptic when I was in middle school. I learned how to care for him and give his meds. I now work in Veterinary Medicine and continue that passion for animals. I currently work full time in a Veterinary Hospital. Monday through Wednesday I work open to close, so would only be available before a shift, on lunch and after a shift. Thursday through Sunday I am available pretty much all the time. I will follow your direction for in home sitting and assure your pet will get all the attention and time it needs and then some!

“Hannah stayed in our home and watched our dog for a week. He is an older dog and needs medicine twice a day plus some extra TLC getting up and down steps or even the couch. She was wonderful! She was always in communication with me and sent pictures all the time which really put my mind at ease. She took such great care of him and our house too. I would highly recommend her!”


About: Hi there! Animals are my true love. I’ve had animals my entire life. My rescue animals taught me how to be a mom and have changed my life. I have two cattle dog mixed breeds and two domestic cats. Previously, I worked for Central Bark as a dog handler and weekend caretaker. I previously had a dog with diabetes and am experienced with administering injection and oral medications. I like to stay healthy and fit. Let me be your dog’s work out buddy! When I’m not adventuring with my fur babies/sons, I’m working fully remote for a law firm. Since I work from home, I have flexibility to offer morning/lunch/evening walks or drop-ins. Your dog/cats will be greeted with a warm, friendly voice and lots of cuddles. After the meet n greet we get to business with the walk followed by some play and more cuddles.

About: I have loved pups and dogs my whole life! I have been a helping hand to friends and family and their pets when needed. I also have worked in the medical field for over 20 years, with emergency experience. I am currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with or walk your pups. I am available Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. Weekends can always be worked out! I make sure everything and everyone is safe and secure (doors/fences locked) when going for a walk. I want the pup to know that all is well and are in good hands.

About: I’ve helped my friends and family take care of their dogs when they have needed it. I used to have a dog when I was younger that I helped take care of. I am a nanny on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, but that will end when they go back to school soon. I would love to watch some furry friends on the other days I don’t work. In your own home I will use whatever is provided to take care of your pets. I will make sure to keep all doors closed when inside and use a leash when outside.

“Alexandra was fantastic! She took very good care of our fur baby, Toco. Alexandra provided frequent updates on Toco’s care, which helped us relax and enjoy our family reunion. I’m excited to have found someone local to utilize in the future. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a mature, responsible animal lover to take care of your fur babies. Thank you! Alexandra.”


About: As a little kid, I grew up with a dog and then got two dogs of my own as an adult. I raised all my dogs from puppies all the way through to end of life. I have dog sat for family and friends as well so I have experience with many breeds and conditions of care. I am currently available most weekends for whatever your fur babies need and I have some flexibility with my schedule during the week so I may be able to help out! I have a large (unfenced) yard for dogs to play in. I have a crate if needed. I have a walking path nearby to take long walks.

“I’ve had the pleasure of having Maggie care for my 5-year-old Labrador multiple times, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She is incredibly reliable, kind, and attentive—not only with feeding and walking, but also with the little things that show she truly cares, like bringing toys, giving extra belly rubs, and making sure my dog felt safe and loved. My Lab is always excited to see her and comes home happy and well-exercised. It's clear she has a natural way with animals. Anyone looking for a responsible and compassionate dog walker or sitter would be lucky to have her!”
