“McKenna’s great. I was extremely nervous to leave my puppy with pet sitters and had a couple of pet sitters before I found McKenna. I feel so lucky to have found her! She’s really kind and caring with my puppy. She’s great with communication and super flexible with scheduling. I have a crazy work schedule and she’s great about helping me out. She now regularly takes care of my puppy and is a staple in our lives!”

“Loyd has continued to watch our dogs for almost a year now. We are always happy with the state of our home and the pups when we get back from our trips.”


“Melissa was AMAZING! She took care of our beloved cat and puppy sooo well, sending us the best updates and photos, and even helped deal with tummy issues that came up with our puppy. 10000% would recommend for anyone and we will for sure have her back next time we go out of town if she’s available!”


“Jaelyn was fantastic! Perry was comfortable with her right away which put us all at ease to leave him with her. Perry is an older guy with health issues and she took perfect care of him while we needed to be away. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her to others. Thank you, Jaelyn!”


“Georgea was great to take the time to come meet the dogs before the booking. She was kind and caring with our dogs and left the house clean and tidy. Our trip was short and everything went smoothly. I’d be happy to have her watch our pups again in the future.”


About: I love being with dogs when I’m hanging out at home or in the woods and that's why I'm on Rover--I just love having dogs in my life! I'm a very active person and love being outside. I have a home with two roommates who also love dogs. We have a large un-fenced yard with a small play pen in the yard appropriate for small dogs. We live in a nice, dog-friendly neighborhood close to a park, a creek for those water lovers, and hiking trails (and, coming soon, a WagBar!). I’ve had a dog at every point in my life and have been recently raising a puppy with my parents but I have no other dogs in the home at the time. I have several dog beds around the house, toys, leashes, etc. as well as a large kennel. I'm also willing to offer extra services like bathing and brushing. I’m happy to do house visits for cats too, but my housemate is allergic so, unfortunately, I can’t do any cat sitting. I am happy to take the dogs on as long or short of walks as desired, or even on hikes and runs! Lastly, I am currently working full time from home and am excited to spend ALL DAY with your pups! I can't wait to meet and get to know y’all’s pups! :)

About: I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and senior care for dogs. I am happiest when I am taking care of animals in whatever way they need love and care. I currently work part time so have plenty of time Wednesday through Sunday to care for your pets. I prefer to check on them in their own homes frequently each day giving them plenty of time to run around and play or have some love and companionship. When I check on your pets in their homes I will be sure they have everything they need to be comfortable and safe while I’m away. I will also spend an hour with them to make sure they have plenty of time to do their business outside and get their wiggles out if they need it.

“Laura is wonderful with my two weimaraner puppies. She is very attenative and gives them the much needed attention they both deserve. I feel so comfortable leaving them alone with her when I'm working 12hr shifts at the hospital.”


“Cory was amazing! He took care of my dogs and house as if it was his. He kept us updated, left my house better than what it was. I will definitely be reaching out again to have him stay with the animals. Thank you Cory!! I appreciate you so much!”


“She did such an awesome job with our dogs and house while my little family was away! Very quick to respond and sent regular updates! My dogs can be a handful to new people but she loved them like her own :) the house also looks just like we left it! 10/10 will be booking with Hailey again !”


“Have absolutely no complaints! We were gone for 10 days leaving behind 3 animals and Heaven took amazing care of them. I had daily pictures of all three animals. We ran out of cat food, she got some and went above and beyond and even got a litter scooper. She is a rockstar and will be our go to from now on!”


“Robin was ann my amazing. She is very easy to work with and was flexible on exact leaving and returning times. She even took time to send pictures of our dogs. We definitely plan to use her again.”


“Colleen is a wonderful sitter and our Kai definitely found her best bud. Colleen took very good care of our girl, taking her for walkabouts and ensuring she's had her meds when required. Kai enjoyed and had fun with her, which for her age was pleasing to see. Our house was clean and orderly when we got home. She did have an issue with our tankless water heater during her stay and she swapped to the standby electric with no problem. We will definitely hire Colleen if available on our next trip.”


“Sterling was able to come semi last minute and provided wonderful updates and excellent care for our creatures. Thank you so much for your help Sterling! We would definitely recommend and use him again in the future.”


About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. I am an animal lover and I understand what it means to leave your pets in someone else's hands. I currently work bankers hours Monday-Friday, but I have flexibility during mornings, lunch, evenings and weekends. I will work with pet parents to make sure that pets are cared for properly. I have experience with dogs that require medication, reactivity, puppies, and nervous animals. My care would be tailored to match what the pets are accustomed to and what myself and the pet parent agree on.
