“Katie was wonderful! She was very communicative and sent lots of pics and even tidied up before we got home. Our pets are spoiled with me working from home with them all day typically and Katie was able to spend so much time with them that I felt very reassured leaving them. Will be booking her again!”


“We had a last minute trip scheduled and was in need of assistance with our dog. Robin was very helpful, caring and delight to have helping with our dog. She kept us informed of how he was doing, eating, bathroom and behavior. Helped him out with some tummy troubles. We would definitely use Robin again. This was our first time using Rover. From this experience it won’t be our last. Thanks Robin for taking such good care of our dog”


“Saren is everything you would want in a dog sitter. She is responsible, good with dogs, good with communications, and very easy to work with. We could not have been happier with the week she spent with our dog.”


About: Hi! I'm a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for my own pets and fostering both cats and dogs. I'm an avid walker with a super flexible schedule, so your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and love while you're away. I treat every animal like family—because they deserve nothing less! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I have lots of availability and love being active, so I’m always ready for walks, playtime, and cuddles. My days are flexible, which means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency as often as they need. I care for pets with the same attention and love I give my own. I'm very detail-oriented, neat, and organized. I'll always follow your instructions exactly to keep your pet comfortable and your home just the way you left it. You can trust me to treat both with the utmost care and respect.

“Our 4 dogs had an amazing time with Makenzie! Lots of pictures and updates. Came home to a clean home and happy pets. Will 100% use again, and 100% would recommend!”


“Alyson was great with our 4 legged family member Rowdy. She gave him all the love he missed when we were gone. She took him for walks, sent pictures, sent videos and our house was left the way we left it. Definitely will book her again and would recommend her to anyone who asks.”


About: Through my own dog, bear, I have developed a care and compassion for animals. Animals are my passion, and I plan to pursue this passion in marine biology after my undergraduate at JcTc to preserve the biodiversity of our planet. I am a graduate cum laude from high school, I have a total flexibility on weekdays, before 2:00pm on Fridays, and my weekends are open. I have a fenced in backyard, my pet has regular vet visits, I am responsible for insuring my dog the proper amount of nutrition each day. I understand the importance of daily walks, and use a leash at all times.

“Amy was a fantastic dog sitter! She sent photos and kept me updated on my dog while we were on vacation and made me feel completely at ease. Would highly recommend her! 🤩”


“Mary was great with both of our dogs over the weekend. She sent a ton of photo updates and seemed to enjoy spending time with them and playing with them. They’re both older and one needs medicine twice daily, which she was able to administer.”


About: I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to understand their unique personality, routines, and needs. I have had many animals of my own my whole life along with pet sitting for many family members, friends, and neighbors. I am a certified veterinary assistant and have worked in a vet office for over a year now and with my hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, I’m trained to handle everything from shy rescues to high-energy pups. Pet care is a core part of my daily and weekly life — not just a job, but a commitment I truly enjoy. I build my schedule around my clients’ pets to ensure consistency, comfort, and reliability. Caring for pets in their own home keeps their environment consistent and stress-free. I follow your pet’s regular schedule for meals, potty breaks, walks, and medication. I stick to your instructions for house rules, routines, and preferences. I tidy up after myself (and your pet), water plants, bring in mail, and keep your home secure. I provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities.

“She was able to help me out at the last minute with my pit Bull mix Dora when I had to work on the weekend, which was just a bad vacation. She sent me plenty of updates and photos, which was obviously very helpful. Dora was in good hands and she was able to also handle some things I had forgotten to do at home. She’s highly demanded on the app, so I can only hope that she will accept our request for help in the future! Thanks AnaMarie”


“Jackie was truly helpful when I needed her at the last minute. She spent time with my pup and was super communicative throughout her time with him. Jackie also sent check-in photos. Jackie spent the night at my home and washed the bedding she used.”


About: I absolutely love spending time with animals! Whether it is a long walk, a run, or just giving them some attention, I always enjoy it. If your pet is up for it I am always down for a run instead of a walk! I have had experience with walking dogs but am not trained to handle dogs with more aggressive temperaments on walks. I have two beautiful cats right now and have much experience taking care of cats as well as dogs. I am comfortable administering shots and medicine as my previous cat had many health issues before she passed away. Current availability: Monday/Thursday: All day Wednesday: Early morning Friday: after 4:30 pm Saturday/Sunday: before 8 am + after 5:30 pm Please note: my availability is dependent on personal plans as well, please reach out for confirmation! I currently have two indoor cats that receive a lot of love, treats, and snuggles! I wake up every day to feed them at 6 am and play with them frequently. In the past, I have loved taking dogs on runs/walks, whatever the dog seems to be in the mood for. Cherokee Park is my go-to for dog walking because of its accessible water fountains for dogs. I also definitely enjoy playing fetch with dogs during walks.

“Betsy was great!! She helped us with our unique situation of having our dog as our flower girl for our wedding ? Betsy watched after our dog while we took photos, people arrived, and during the ceremony. She also took our dog back to our house - 20 min drive and got her in the kennel with dinner fed! Seriously a huge help and she executed everything we needed flawlessly! Couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter - thanks Betsy!”


About: I’ve had pets my whole life. With my childhood dog I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing the wildness of new pups as well as the medication/diapers/aftercare needed when they grow old. I’m a little newer to cats, but both of my mine have been raised from kittens. My oldest will be turning 3 this year! I will be taking classes and working part time in the afternoons. I think my schedule works well for Rover because I am free in the mornings (until 12:30pm), I can check in from 3-4 if needed, then I am free anytime after 5:30! My two cats are escape artists, so I have gotten pretty good at hiding the opening in the door when I enter a room! For me personally, this is always my biggest concern when having people watch over my animals, so I want you to know that I’m very spatially aware when it comes to animals.

“Sage was wonderful with my elderly dog Lucy who has trouble getting around. She came over for a meet and greet before her weekend stay, took terrific care of Lucy during a heat wave, communicated often and sent photos, and left my home very neat and clean! So appreciative for Sage and her loving care of Lucy!”

She is always very friendly and polite and left my home immaculate. I highly recommend her.”
