“We are new to the area so did not know anyone to ask for dog care, so I found Elliot totally organically via Rover and am glad I did. Elliot was awesome. We had him house/dog sit for us for close to a week and he was great. Very responsive and understanding when the dates of our trip got moved around. Also he was able to swing by and let the dogs out again when our flights got delayed. The dogs were happy and healthy when we got home and seem like they loved him. We will be asking (hoping) Elliot can dog sit for us again in the future.”
“Deborah is outstanding! She took great care of our puppy, sent pictures several times a day. My wife loved that. We totally felt good leaving our baby with her. Deborah allowed us to have a relaxing trip without worry. Max bonded with her from the beginning and I think was sad when Deborah left. I would recommend her totally.”
“My dog, Cassie, can be very wary of strangers and Tasha handled it like a pro! She sent lots of pictures, let me know what was going on with the fur babes, and left the place just as neat as it was left to her. Definitely would recommend!”

“Paul took great care of my dog and put my mind at ease while I was away from my pup! He gave thorough updates with pictures and was always thinking one-step ahead of me (trial walk, key drop off, etc.). When my pup got sick Paul communicated what was going on well and made the same judgement calls I would, which showed me he was truly looking out for my dog like she was his own. I will be re-booking with Paul in the future and recommend him for your petsitting needs!”
“Lexi is one of the best sitters out there! You can tell she is passionate for animals and treats them as her own. She was so great at communicating with us and is very responsive. We received a video update on our pups as well. The house was left in the same shape we left it in. Very kind, sweet, and caring girl!”
“Kaiya was great! She was able to watch our cats on kind of late notice, made sure our cat got his meds on time, and was easy to get in touch with. Friendly, helpful, would recommend.”

About: I have had and cared for pets my entire life. Highly experienced with dogs and cats from puppy/kittens to seniors.

About: I have been house sitting and taking care of pets throughout high school and college. I have two cats of my own. I treat any pet as if it is my own when watching them! I am free a lot of the time and can work around many different schedules. I am easy to work with and am very flexible! I play with my own cats every chance I get and make sure they have everything they could need or want. I do this with the pets I watch as well because that’s how I would want my cats taken care of!
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, parrots, chickens, and horses, and have some dog training experience. I just graduated from college, so I have a relatively free schedule as I transition, and would love to dedicate that time to animal care! I make sure I am very attentive when seeing what the pet needs, and I make sure to accommodate for whatever recommendations my clients would like to see being done. I also have a flexible schedule and can work around whatever is needed for them to remain happy and healthy.

About: I understand how important pets are to their families, and I treat every furry friend with patience, love, and attention. Dogs are important members of the family so I'll make sure to treat them with the upmost care and respect! I've had 2 dogs for about 9+ years, a dachshund mix and a corgi! I’m currently available full-time for the next 3 weeks and have a very flexible schedule, including weekdays, weekends, and evenings. I’m dedicating this time to pet care, so I can easily work around your pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take time to get to know each animal’s personality and needs, and I’m patient and gentle with every pet I meet. On walks, I use secure leashes and stay alert to the environment around us. I will also follow any instructions that you give closely!
About: I’ve taken care of fur babies for as long as I can remember. I have also volunteered at the shelter. I currently have 1 dog and 7 cats of my own that I rescued and adore. Animals have a special place in my heart. I currently work a full time job but now that my children are grown I have evening time Monday-Friday after 5:00pm and every weekend open. I can provide any and all necessary care for your pet. Feeding/watering, litter cleaning, play time, walks and administering medication if needed. I would care for them as if they were my own.

stephanie w.
“Stephanie was very communicative and consistent with her updates and genuinely cares about the animals and their well being. We routinely use her and know that our animals are safe in her care. If she notices any potential issues with one of the animals, she immediately points it out and keeps us updated. Highly recommend!”
Mya D.

Her communication was excellent, providing regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. Our cats were clearly comfortable and content with her, which is the best sign of all! We will definitely hire her again every time we need a sitter. Highly recommend Mya for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

I could not recommend her more!”

I can always count on her when I am going out of town to keep my updated without me ever having to worry. She sends pictures of their daily activities and sometimes funny little stories. I know my animals are loved in her care especially when my cats actually lay in her lap. If you would like a vacation away without worrying about your fur babies being taken care of Regina is definitely the person to call.”
