“Kaylee truly went above and beyond for house sitting our two dogs. She even provided enrichment to stimulate their minds and was able to care for our hurt dog with ease. Our house was kept clean and she arrived promptly and timely. Thank you for everything again!”

About: I have had pets my entire life. I love all kinds of animals, and animals all seem to love me. I have two dogs of my own, a cat, 2 birds, an axolotl, a fish, and 3 snakes. I have always had a lot of love for animals. I even have several years of experience as a dog washer and grooming assistant. In my opinion, animals are just as important members of the family as anyone. Their care should be just as key as the human members. I look forward to meeting and caring for your fur/scale/festhered babies :) My entire routine is built around caring for all of my pets to make sure they are thriving. I chose them to live with me, it is my responsibility to make sure they live their happiest and healthiest life. I follow the directions given to me diligently. Most animals like routine, so I try to stick to the routines given to me. If allowed to add enrichment, say treats or the like, I do so.
“Ashley is wonderful! My little old man is in great hands with her. She provides pictures and updates and makes me feel extremely comfortable leaving my elderly dog in her care!”

“Julia house/dog sat over the Thanksgiving holiday. I appreciated her updates and she was also very responsive to my occasional check-ins. She was extremely flexible and responsible. We came home to a happy/relaxed pup. I will definitely request Julia in the future when the need arises! Thanks Julia :)”

“Theresa by far exceeded my expectations. She was very tentative to Scooby spent time walking him and giving him love. I left without worry and sent me plenty of updates. I will hire her again. My pup is very active and she kept him busy with love and attention. Thank you Theresa!”

“Kathleen was amazing. Highly recommend her. Very professional and treated Charlie as if ihe was her own dog. Very knowledgeable and made sure she understood my needs and Charlie’s. She’s the best!”


“Amanda replied quickly, was on time and put in the effort that I look for when I want someone to take care of my dog! She went through extra mile on short notice and took great care of Nala, will definitely be booking with her again in the near future!”

“Gwen was amazing! She took such good care of our baby while we were gone. She sent pictures and updates the entire time. She was very responsive any time I had questions. She stayed at our house and left it exactly how it was when we left. I would love to use her again!!”

“Mackenzie successfully hung out with my Sweet & SOUR cat over night. She sent several updates via pictures and videos! 10/10 recommend her to come love on your animals!”

“Marriah is simply incredible at caring for high-needs pets. This was my first experience using an app for an overnight in-home house-sitter for my 14yo yorkie. Our dog has a strict prescription diet for cushings disease and requires gentle, attentive and near constant care. Marriah was professional, cheerful, patient and supportive throughout the 8 days she stayed with our little old lady. I was amazed how Marriah hand fed our dog and got her comfortable and eating again even while she was moping and sad from being left behind. Marriah sent so many pictures and updates on how our girl was doing and I felt so safe leaving my smallest family member in her hands. She is worth every dollar and I would recommend Marriah to anyone looking for an experienced and compassionate caregiver for any kind of service from walks to overnight care. We will definitely ask for her again!”

“Ashley was fantastic! She is professional and thorough. She sent me a ton of photos and videos which eased my anxiety with being away from Eevee. I highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a sitter and I will be using her services for Eevee again!”

“Kathryn stayed at our home for 12 days taking care of our three chihuahuas. She was incredibly helpful, communicated well (including sending photos and videos of our dogs every day), took great, loving care of our dogs, and left our home clean and ready for us when we returned. We would definitely recommend and we will be requesting Kathryn's help next time we travel!”

“Isabella was fantastic! My dog has anxiety and can have a hard time adjusting to new people, but he was totally comfortable with Isabella almost immediately. She sent tons of photos and communicated what was going on the entire booking. She also took care of my box turtle and followed all the instructions left to a T!!”

Having had dogs my entire life, I have developed a deep understanding and love for our canine companions. I specialize in training puppies and offering compassionate care for senior dogs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy. In addition to my personal experience, my full-time job involves caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, fish, hamsters, bunnies, guinea pigs, turtles, and more. This diverse experience has equipped me with the skills to cater to the unique needs of different animals, making me a versatile and knowledgeable pet sitter.

I currently work full-time Monday to Friday, but I am available to help early mornings and evenings, as well as overnight and all day on weekends. When caring for a pet, I prioritize both warmth and safety to ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure. I begin by establishing a routine that closely mirrors their usual schedule, including feeding times, walks, and playtime, to provide a sense of familiarity and stability. I ensure the home environment is safe by checking for any potential hazards and keeping dangerous items out of reach. During our time together, I offer plenty of affection, gentle handling, and positive reinforcement to build trust and make your pet feel loved. I also stay attentive to your dog/cat health, monitoring for any signs of distress or discomfort and keeping you updated on their well-being. With my dedicated care, your dog will enjoy a safe, nurturing, and happy experience in the comfort of their own home.

Golden Lakes pet parents share their Rover experiences
Gwen is the absolute best! She took care of our lab Maisie over the Memorial Day holiday weekend as well as our son's little cockapoo, Beau. She's taken care of Maisie multiple times before, but this time she had two to deal with, two pups who don't live together, two pups who were both away from their parents.... And she handled this with patience, kindness, and thoughtful care of both of them.
Chante is amazing. She stayed in our home and took care of our two dogs for the first time, while we were out of the country for 11 days. Right from the start, she was professional, responsible and focussed on our needs and those of our dogs. She came for not one, but two pre trip meetings, where she met the dogs, introduced her dog to ours, walked them and discusses all the details of care. Our dogs are older, with feeding and medicine needs and Chante took care of all that without any problems. She was very loving to the dogs and kept us informed the whole time we were away, with texts, pics and videos. We came home to find our house perfectly clean, and our dogs perfectly cared for and happy! We could not be more thrilled with Chante! We are so happy to have found her and will be using her whenever we have doggy care needs. Thanks for everything, Chante!

Carla was amazing, we are booking her again soon for another overnight stay! We booked her for 5 nights to take care of our elderly dog, and she was very well taken care of! Many pictures were sent, she was very responsive, and followed her routine and care. Highly recommend!
Liany was truly a pleasure to have! I cannot say enough great things about how my dogs were loved and cared for . Liany also did an amazing job keeping me up to date with cute pictures too. To top it all off when I got home Liany had cleaned the floor too. Above and beyond is all I have to say and Wow!
