“Jen stayed with all our fur and feathered babies while we were away for the weekend, she made them feel like they weren’t alone and kept us updated the entire time! Thank you so much Jen!”

“Day is the BEST! This is the 2nd time she pet/house sat for me and they were so happy to see her come back... even the cats... and they can be very choosey. I feel so comfortable now when I go on vacation or work trips, knowing that my dog, cats and house are in great hands. Day goes above and beyond pet and house care!”

“Nicole was great with my dogs. She stayed with them for a weekend. When I returned, they were calm and happy. She checked in with updates and photos while I was away and took them on many walks. We will definitely use her again.”

“Megan was great. Very easy to work with, excellent communication, and our Bonnie was very happy to host. We would definitely have her house sit again in the future. Thanks again for the short notice too!”

“Mallory is wonderful with the cats. Showers them with pets and love. They miss her. She also is very meticulous abt updates and pix to me and very OCD abt the cleanliness of the home.”

“Do not hesitate in hiring Andra! From the moment I met her during our meet and greet I knew that she would be a wonderful fit. She asked lots of questions and made sure that she understood them fully. While we were gone if any questions arose she felt comfortable reaching out to us to question or verify. I am confident that our dogs were very well taken care of. Andra also kept our house immaculate and it was that way upon our return. She also kept us updated daily with text messages and adorable pictures.I would obviously hire her again in a minute. She exceeded our expectations. Thanks Andra”


“Carrie was the absolute best sitter for our two dogs. She was punctual, sent pictures often and even went above and beyond in cleaning our dogs water and food bowls without even being asked. She truly cared about our dogs well being and asked important questions about their schedules and individual needs without being prompted. Carrie even left the TV on a dog channel for them when she left even though I forgot to ask her too. I was stress free during our time away knowing our dogs were in great hands! I would highly recommend Carrie for your next booking! 😊”
“Adam has watched our two pups several times and always does such an awesome job! They are very comfortable with him and we know he treats them like his own. He’s incredibly reliable and great at communicating. Love the updates and pix he sends us! We are so glad we met him!”

“Willow was awesome! Great communication, several visits to the house for a meet and greet and to go over protocol before the actual pet sitting and super sweet with the dogs. Reliable, trustworthy and diligent. Thank you Willow!”

“Roni was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend her. I have 2 large dobermans and she disciplined, cared and loved on them with ease. She is brilliant! She was constantly in contact with me sending images etc and she is a wonderful person.”

“Laura was fantastic with our animals. They loved her, they did not appear to be stressed at all like they were after leaving them at a facility kennel type environment. She was great, our residence was watched over and our pets were safe in their own environment. Denali and Remington seem to miss her after she had left. Great job Laura, you deserve more than 5 stars but that’s all there is. I would definitely recommend her to everyone.”

About: I grew up on a farm with all kinds of animals and I’ve never not had a dog! I currently have a 6 year old golden doodle named Ruby that is my pride and joy. I work part time as a nurse, but when I’m not at work I’m hanging out with ruby- which is a lot more enjoyable. Let me hang out with your doggos too! i have a yard, large dog crates if needed, doggie swimming pool, and lots of furniture for the four legged friends to sit on! I work 1-2 days a week and have full availability the other days. Unfortunately, these days change every week, but I usually have my schedule for a month in advance. I live in a house on a couple acres that is surrounded by trees, so there are lots of little critters to look at from the front porch! my dog and i spend a lot of time outdoors, whether we are going to the beach or on walks.
“Zane is an exceptional person. He treated my very old dog with dignity. And my cat appreciates the mega treats Zane gave him. 😏 Anyone who who needs a conscientious person to look after their animals Zane is their man”
“Rebecca was fabulous! My oldest pup passed away just a couple of days before she was scheduled to take care of them for a few days and she came over to my house the day he passed on her own time to comfort me because she knew I was alone. She really went above and beyond, her caring heart really shined through. I am so very appreciative for all that she did to help get me through this difficult time and know that my other pup was well cared for!”
“Kristie looked after out pit-mix and cat for a weekend and was fantastic. She was gracious and asked great questions during our initial meet and greet. She gave us updates and pics throughout the weekend. She was such a calm presence for our animals while we were away. Our home was clean and looked great, when we returned. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you Kristie!”

“Cathryn is wonderful! She took amazing care of our dog Lucy who is highly energetic. She kept us updated with pictures each day and was accommodating when things popped up. This was our first time using rover after changing dog sitters and I’m so thankful we found her!”
