“Amina was absolutely GREAT with our cat while we were away for our wedding! Our cat absolutely loved her (and he is a shy little dude) and was very well taken care of. Communication was great and she left cute photos so I knew my baby was doing well. Did even more than asked for and we truly appreciated it! Highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their trip. Thanks Amina!!”


“Danielle was great. I hired her to watch my cat for a week while I was on vacation and it was the best decision. She's very observant and truly cares. I received updates every morning and evening along with pictures and videos. Ted loved her too which also made me feel better while being away. Thank you for taking such great care of my Ted!”

“Maria took very good care of my cats while I was in the hospital. They were not afraid of her, and she interacted with all of them. She was also able to administer medication to my one cat with a hyperthyroid. I loved receiving the pictures she took during her visit. She kept my kitchen clean after feeding them and kept the storage area where I have the litter boxes clean and swept up the floor after scooping. I would recommend her if you needed someone to look after your pets.”


“Benjamin was outstanding. I have a shy and nervous GSD who he cared for like her was his own dog. They got along great! Frequent picture updates and narratives about how each visit went. Would absolutely have him watch over my doggo again!”


“Casey was incredible!! She made sure our babies were so well taken care of and felt loved while we were gone. It was such a relief being away knowing we had her taking such great care of them and our place.”


“Angie was great, filled in for us last minute! She was easy to work with and accommodated a virtual meeting to go over instructions to fit our schedule. We were very happy with the care our two cats received!!”

I will play with them and spoil them in your absence!!

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 10. I have taken care of dogs since I was 13. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am currently a law student and will be studying for the bar exam this summer giving me plenty of at home time with needed breaks to spend with the pets. I will walk, feed, cuddle, play and supervise your pets. I have the ability to bathe and care for your pets as you would yourself

About: My name is Brittany, I have recently transitioned to working from home. I have a very flexible schedule, which means that I have open availability for walks or drop-ins and will be able to be with your dogs the entire time they are in my care! While I have just started out on Rover, I am still an experienced animal caretaker. Previously I have worked with horses, dog sat in college as well as for family and friends. I treat all animals just like they are apart of my family, this means they sleep in the bed, are allowed on furniture, and are given plenty of love and affection. My dogs and I also love to go on outings to the park, hikes, biking, find water to play in, as well as walks around the neighborhood. I have experience with dogs of almost any size and would be happy to welcome your dog to my family while you are away. I work from home, so I have open availability. This means I can do walks or drop-ins whenever needed. If your dog is in my care while being boarded, at doggy daycare, or house-sitting, I will be with them the entire time! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a long line to allow your dog freedom to play in the yard. In my home we have rest breaks around meal times, and dogs will be separated for meals and to have personal time to themselves. I do have kennels if your dog prefers to sleep in a kennel while in my care. But my two German Shepherds love other dogs and would be happy to invite other dogs into our home. In a client's home I will go off what their schedule is so they have their normal day. I will treat your home just as my own and will leave it in just as good if not better condition than what I found it.

About: I love dogs, cats, small pets, big pets, furry pets, scaley pets, pretty much all animals. I am attending college to be a vet. I have experience with all shapes and sizes and love them all. I'm available most evenings (M, W, F, anytime after 3:00, and Tu, Tr, anytime after 3:30) and weekends at any time. I can check in on your dog (or any other pet) and take them for walks, feed them, play with them, or clean any messes. I can stay over night with your dog provided I am the only person in the house hold and the dog is comfortable with strangers. Thank you for taking the time to learn a bit about me and what I can do for you and your furry friend. M-F after 3pm and weekends any time. There is some wiggle room and some times where I’ve got my own dog to look out for. We can always work it out! I’ve got a large home with a large fenced in backyard. My partner and I both love dogs, and we have one as well. We’ve got lots of treats(allergies friendly) and toys to play with.
