“Aura took excellent care of my girls while I worked a long shift, she provided pictures each day. I didn’t have to worry about a thing, so appreciative ❤️”


“E is a very good communicator, was very sweet with my cats, and even took photos for me. Thank you taking care of my fur babies while we were away!”


“Allegra was amazing! She took such good care of my two kitties while I was out of town. She even managed to get my shy boy Lucky out to play, and sent lots of really cute pictures of them both, playing and just happy all-around. I would 100% book Allegra again, 10/10 would recommend!”


“Hannah took such wonderful care of our beloved kitty, Minou, over the holidays (including Christmas and New Year’s) for two full weeks. From the moment we booked, she was flexible, communicative, and totally committed to ensuring Minou had everything he needed—plus plenty of love and attention. Not only did we come home to an extremely happy and content kitty, but Hannah also went above and beyond by helping with a few little household things that popped up while we were away. Her frequent updates gave us peace of mind, and it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. We’re so glad we found her, and we’ll absolutely be booking Hannah again next time Minou needs a sitter!”


“Ashley did a wonderful job caring for our two cats while my husband and I were out of town. She was very communicative during scheduling and stopped by for a meet and greet before the drop-in visits. She followed all of the care instructions and provided descriptive and informative visit summarizes. She also really enjoyed caring for my girls! I would definitely book Ashley again and recommend her for anyone in need of a sitter. 🐈⬛ 🐈”

“My first time using Rover to care for my two kitties was with Victoria. She made the very hard task of leaving my babies so much easier with her kindness and care. She sent lots of photos and very sweet updates that were peppered with keen observations and details of the visits. I know Hatchet and Boo will be in good hands for my future vacations.”

About: Looking for a pup sitter? Look no further! Currently residing in the riverbend neighborhood, I have a house with a spacious fenced in backyard. I also have 1 friendly dog of my own that enjoy having your dog stay with us too (he is very hospitable)! If going for a long walk or run is their thing, I'm up for it! or if they love to romp around the dog park, even better! I know each dog will have unique needs, so if they'd rather lay on the couch, that works too! I have a full time job M-F, but am flexible when it comes to working from home or coming home during lunch if that is needed during their stay. I'd love to have the opportunity to care and love for your pal! Let's set up a meet and greet to make sure your dog feels comfortable around me and my dog!
