“Sophia did a great job caring for our dog and cat while we were out of town for a couple nights. We appreciated her proactive and thorough communication and the updates she sent! She bonded quickly with our dog who is not always great with new people. She also gave a lot of tlc to our cat. Our house was spotless when we got home which was so nice to return to! Would definitely recommend Sophia and work with her again!”

“I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!”

About: I believe dogs and cats have a way of communicating, and I’ve learned to understand them deeply, creating a truly rewarding connection. I can read their subtle cues and know exactly what they need. I’m partially retired, and because I love dogs, caring for them fits perfectly into my daily routine. This opportunity allows me to spend quality time with your four-legged family member while helping you with their care on a temporary basis. I have owned my home for the last 20 years and have been an active member of my HOA board, even leading the security committee for several years—demonstrating my commitment to a safe, secure environment. Additionally, I rescued and cared for a 10-pound Pomeranian in my condo for six wonderful years, ensuring his well-being daily. These experiences reflect my dedication to responsible care and vigilance—qualities I bring to any dog walking service.

“Cassandra watched my one year old cavapoo, Rosie, for a long weekend while we were traveling. She was very professional at our meet and greet and she read over the care instructions for Rosie carefully. She stayed in touch throughout the weekend with photos and updates. I felt like I was able to really relax and enjoy my time away because Rosie was getting lots of love, playtime, and walks. She also took great care of the house, kept everything super clean, and helped us out with bringing in mail and bringing trash cans to the curb. I'm looking forward to hiring her again!”

About: Hi! My name is Stephanie and I have been pet sitting for over 15 years. My love of animals has led me to initially start looking after family and friend's critters to wanting to help others as a way to care for their pets when they're busy or unable to. I have cared for both cats, dogs, even a pig, ranging from young to old. Currently, I provide daily check-ins to see how pets are doing. I also provide walks and play time so they get some engagement and aren't lonely while their owners are away on business or vacation or just busy with work. If you are looking for someone to help you with a walk, a check-in, or play time, please don't hesitate to contact me! I'm currently funemployed so my schedule is extremely flexible. For drop-ins, I drop in once in the morning at 8:30am and/or again in the evening at 6:30pm. For walks, they would be during middle of the day at around 1pm. Prior to an service, I try to communicate with pet owners about anything I should know. I prefer to over communicate to make sure everyone is on the same page and that I have everything I need to make every visit, stay, or walk successful. When visiting a client's home, I allow pets to come up to me first so they can get acquainted with me. I don't force interaction since that can break down trust. If any of the pets have soiled or damaged anything on the property, I'd document it, send it to the client, then clean up any mess. Whether I'm staying at someone's house or doing drop-ins, I give each pet lots of love and attention in the form of pets, belly rubs, and playing games with them. If they are skittish, I tend to let them approach me when they feel comfortable.

About: I've been watching dogs for about 7 years now, mostly small and medium dogs, and I have a real soft spot for herding breeds. I love going on walks with them, usually around 30-45 minutes in the neighborhood, to help burn off their energy and keep them active. I especially love walking younger, energetic dogs because I can go longer with them (getting my steps in) but, I also have a big love for senior dogs and take it slower and easier for them. Every dog is different, so I like to give them what they need — whether that's a good long walk or just sweet cuddles and their own space to relax. I try to keep things calm for them the whole time they're with me. I also send lots of pictures throughout the day so you can see your pup enjoying themselves and know they're safe and having a good time. Right now I'm actually watching a friend's dog, and I'd love to bring that same care to your pup too. I do ask for at least 24 hours' notice when possible, just so I can work around everyone's schedule and be fully ready for your dog. I have a lot of flexibility right now and I'm available throughout the week and most weekends, aside from Saturday nights. That means I can usually work around whatever schedule fits you and your pet best. I prefer taking care of animals in their own home. When their family is away, that can be a stressful, uncertain time for them, so making sure they still feel safe and at home is always my top priority. I keep their routine as normal as possible — same feeding times, same walks, same spaces — so the change feels as small as possible for them. If we're at my place instead, I love watching them explore and get curious about a new environment. Helping them feel comfortable and at ease is always the most important thing to me, whether that's in their home or mine.

About: I’ve taken care of of dogs since I was about 7, I’ve owned two as a child growing up. As an adult I spent most of my years as a single soldier as a mechanic and many of my coworkers need it sitters for a variety of dogs that I was always happy to assist with. Currently I’m a full time student working on my degree in audio design. I typically have classes twice a week with one online. On the weekends I dj Saturday nights 9-1am. I’m a very active person I run 2 miles to the gym at 6am 5 times a week and walk back after my workout. I’m a 16 year military veteran and have a lot of past experience with helping raise, walk and watch a variety of different animals while I was single and on active duty so now that I have more time on my hands it would be a great way to stay active throughout the week! I typically don’t keep animals at my home, but in other people’s home I always like to be introduced to the pet by the owner and have a very in depth overview of the things their animals absolutely do not like. After that I really like to know the owners worries and what things they need in terms of communication to keep them comfortable. As for the interaction I definitely want to be slow with the pet has any sort of anxiety but I love to give them lots of attention weather that’s to play with them talk to them or let them get comfortable by sitting on my lap or holding them.

Greta was great! She was pleasant, personable, neat and very attentive to my little Izzy. Izzy can be nervous at times but she warmed up to Greta quickly and Izzy was very well adjusted when I returned home. Would definitely call on Greta again when I need someone to watch Izzy.

This was Sadie’s second time with Alyssa. From the updates, we could tell that Sadie was comfortable and happy - she doesn’t snuggle with just anyone and so when she’s comfortable with someone we know it’s a good fit.

Morgane did a great job house-sitting for our two dogs. I think her experience especially spoke for itself by the great questions ahead of the visit that helped us fill in gaps we were missing in our original instructions. Morgane took great care of the dogs, great care of the house, and we would have no reservations recommending her to friends or family and would hapilly book her again in the future.

Sara was absolutely wonderful with our babies. Both of our animals are pretty anxious, so we were nervous about introducing a new sitter... but it was immediately very clear that Sara put them at ease. She sent regular updates, including pictures showing our pets happy, relaxed, and incredibly well cared for. Sara is a thoughtful, communicative, responsive, snd caring sitter who clearly love animals -- and they love her back! We will definitely be booking her again :)

We had another great experience with Hong. She took care of our 2 dogs over the weekend and they are so happy to see her again. We are confident that our dogs are in good hands when we leave them with her. She gives them individualized attention and they were both nicely brushed when we got home. She also does a super job of communicating and so we get lots of good pictures and updates while we are away. And our house is well cared for. Hong is terrific.

Rita was so great with my dog Billy! I could tell from the moment she came over that she has a natural way with animals and such a patient, calming disposition, which was especially great for Billy, who can be a little particular. She jumped right in, took him on a walk, and really made it a priority to help him feel comfortable with her. On top of that, she was incredibly communicative, flexible, and just an all-around wonderful house sitter. I felt so good knowing Billy was in her care and would absolutely work with Rita again!
