“Caroline dropped by to watch our two cats while we were on vacation. She kept their water and food dishes filled and cleaned their litter boxes. It’s nice to find someone reliable. I would book her again. Thanks!”
“Taylor is an excellent cat sitter. She really bonded with my cat, Taz, giving him hugs and play time while taking care of him during her drop-in visits. She took lots of photos and provided summary notes for each visit. I would recommend Taylor for any pet care needs.”
“Dorothy is an amazing cat sitter. She’s very professional, kind, and always on time. She kept me updated while looking after my cats, and I look forward to hiring her again soon.”
“We couldn’t have ask for better pet caretakers with Syndie and Jack! This was our first vacation away from our kittens and we couldn’t have been luckier to have them care for our precious little gems. From day one, they were punctual, friendly, and thorough with our kittens. They took plenty of cute pictures and left thoughtful notes with every visit, quickly easing our worries. They were super responsive and caring. It’s so obvious they are true animal lovers and are a rare find. To top that off, we came back from our vacation to discover a heartfelt, hand-written card and treats for our cats! We can’t believe this is our first experience with pet sitters as I don’t know how anyone else will ever do a better job! We can’t say thank you enough and we hope we will be lucky enough to have Syndie and Jack care for our cats in the near future! Five stars all the way!”
“Camille was so patient and friendly with me, and my cats! I was very nervous about leaving them, and she did a great job of taking care of them, and of reassuring me that everything was fine. They were definitely happy and well cared for.”
“Eve is fantastic, shes so wonderful with my cats and so flexible, friendly and efficient. I always feel so comfortable leaving town knowing shes caring for my animals.”

“It was the first time Radhika took care of my two cats and won’t be the last for sure. She was really nice to them and me. She was on time for all the visits, provided the information I needed, played with them and all. I also appreciate that she didn’t feel intimidated by one of my cats who is aggressive to people he has just met :)”

“Thalia was awesome! This was our first time using Rover. We literally don’t go on vacation because we’ve been hesitant about leaving our fur babies. Thalia was kind professional and our minds were put at ease knowing our pups would be looked after yesterday. Highly recommend”
About: Hi, I’m Lauren. I grew up with my golden retrievers back home in Illinois. My previous dog, Kratos was a Belgian Malanois Boxer mix that was a son to me. Sadly he passed two years ago of osteosarcoma. I feel comfortable working with larger dogs or dogs with a disability (Kratos became a 3 legged wonder 8 months before his passing). I am currently waiting on finding another dog to share my love of outdoors with. I love hiking and long walks and cannot wait to have a companion again. In the meantime, I would treat your dog as my own 🥰 With my previous Belgian Malanois I would set aside at least 3 hrs a day for outdoor play, hiking, walking as they are very active dogs and need a lot of stimulation. I love being outdoors and sharing that with him 😊
About: I was born and raised with dogs and have experience with all dogs of every shape, size ,energy level, age etc. Your babies will be in great hands ♥️ **please note: I have alot of regulars now since I began service and availability is becoming limited I work from home 2/3 times a week and my weekends are almost always empty. I always make time to ensure the animal I am caring for receives as much of my time and attention possible.. with extra cuddles on the side 🥰 Pets in my care are treated as my own with the most care, love, and respect. My daughter (10) has also been trained in the same manner and was born and raised with animals. The only negative is I might spoil them too much 🥰
“Tiara took great care of our kitty, with chin scratches and treats.”
About: I have loved animals ever since I was little! I have ridden horses for 10 years owning my own horses. I have always had a family dog and 2 years ago when at college got a dog of my own! I will always put the safety of any animal first. I have taken care of many puppies, dogs, and cats. I find it very respectful when others respect my pets training so I will always make sure to keep up with how you train if needed! I am currently home from college for the summer and don't have any other obligations or jobs so I have multiple days and times open this summer to spend with you furry babies! I will care for your pets as I would my own in your home! Making sure they always have water and a safe comfortable environment.

“Katie was perfect! She was extremely communicative and we figured our specifics easily. Her rates are reasonable and she is very flexible. She sent pictures and videos throughout the stay and kept us informed of everything going on. We will definitely reach out to Katie again in the future!”
“I can’t recommend Jacob enough! He took such great care of my cat while I was away, providing daily check-ins that always gave me peace of mind. The updates were thorough and included adorable pictures of my cat that brightened my day. It was clear from the photos and messages, Jacob truly cared for my cat and made sure all his needs were met. He was reliable, communicative, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. I’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”
About: I grew up with a sweet miniature schnauzer, two kitties, tons of fish, and even some reptiles! I have always had a very strong affinity for animals. I would feel so lucky to care for your beloved pets and treat them as if they’re my own! I currently work Mondays and Friday from 8-5, but am actively looking for pet owners needing some extra help whether it is early mornings, late nights, or weekends. I am always on the move and able to accommodate to your schedule! Since I was a baby I have grown up with and cared for animals in my home. I make sure every animal is treated with the utmost love and adoration, as if they’re my own. I am more than happy to accommodate to a specific pets needs and situations. If boarding in my home, your pet will experience quiet, clean, and comfortable conditions that they will assuredly enjoy! There is a large dog park right next to my apartment for dogs, and paths that they can be walked on! If you have specific requests for your pet I am more than happy to oblige!

Mia R.
“My daughter is a passionate animal lover, a trait my husband and I recognized early on and continue to see. She eagerly engages with every pet we've welcomed into our home, from dogs and pet rats to fish. Our current dog adores her visits from college, choosing to sleep in her room. Over eight years, she was fortunate to own three horses, diligently cleaning, caring for and exercising them daily. She now owns a dachshund and responsibly covers all his expenses. To support him, she's seeking a summer job. The dogs she walks-belonging to family and neighbors-light up with excitement when she returns home to care for them. I hope you'll give my remarkable animal-loving daughter a chance!”

“Cathrine is an awesome dog sitter. She has taken great care of my dog Bodie. She takes him for multiple walks an day and made sure his bowl was full of water and fed him at the correct times and made sure he got plenty of pets. We ask Cathrine all the time to watch Bodie when our family is out of town. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter.”
