“Pamela is punctual and conscientious. She took care of three of our pets (our dog traveled with us this time). One of the kitties needs medication two times per day and I could have set my watch to Pamela’s arrival to do that for us. We appreciated her taking that weight off our minds. Highly recommended!”
“Bradley did a great job following the instructions during the visits with detail. I was impressed with how he handled my dog being over 100 pounds by establishing himself as a friendly presence before interactions. Highly recommend this young man for future opportunities.”
“Ashleigh was great! She sent pictures and updates, and patiently put up with my unneeded chitchat. :-) I've already scheduled her for out next trip. The Rover app is so easy to use, and very well thought out.”
“Sara is a lovely young lady who has a wonderful rapport with our dog. He loved her from the moment they met. She is very responsible and we trust her with our fur baby.”
“Heather is truly amazing, she gave my anxious pup time to warm up to her and eventually he had no choice but to love her! Her updates are excellent, personable and funny, I knew my pup was being well cared for and loved while I was away- she really went above and beyond 💕”
“Merissa and Nick are the best pet sitters I have ever had, because they care and go above and beyond!! Besides the very helpful daily updates on my cat’s food, drink, litter box usage and general behavior, they sent me some of the greatest photos and videos of Hodge, many showing them playing with my very social fur baby. When I returned home after a 10-day trip, the house was immaculate and my mail and newspapers were neatly piled up on the kitchen counter. I knew that with Merissa and Nick my cat was getting the best care possible and was very happy, which gave me complete peace of mind to enjoy my vacation.”
“Sydney is the best! She is extremely helpful, professional and attentive to my dog's needs. She is always on time and thorough with her visits. Couldn't ask for a better sitter!”
About: I am a 28 year old wife and mom to one baby, one dogs and a cat. I have ample experience with training animals, as I trained my two dogs, one whom passed and one who is now 8, on my own and am in the process of training my 2 year old cat. I am skilled in senior animal care, as I grew up with Labrador’s my entire life who required senior and end of life care, such as diapering and mobility. One of my dogs has a chronic illness, which has made me trained in medication management and administration to ensure he remains healthy. My pets are my whole world, so you can know that in my care your pets will never be without attention and love! While I am busy with my own family, I can make myself available any day and any time to give your animals attention and love! As I am the primary caregiver to my child, I will have him with me for walking. However, he will be strapped to my chest in a carrier and unable to directly interact with your pet, unless you tell me it’s okay! I currently live in an apartment, but my dog is walked multiple times a day for extended periods to allow him to explore the world and get some energy out! This would be the same with your pets. My cat is consistently entertained, and I usually spend a great chunk of my nights wearing him out.
About: I have great experience with all types of animals in all ranges of age and necessities. I have worked at a barn as well as volunteer at my local animal shelter. I also grew up fostering puppies and kittens as young as days old. I have multiple pets of my own and they are my whole world, I treat any animal with the same level of respect. I work part time but my schedule is very flexible with an enough time in advance. I am free pretty much all day on weekends and most consistently after 3 on weekdays. However my schedule does shift and I am an early riser so I can make most other times work. I currently do not offer home services in my personal house. At a clients home I will listen to whatever instructions are given and keep everything as similar as possible for overnight and drop-in visits to help keep stress levels down for your animal.
About: Hey Pet Owners! I'm Vivian! I’m a dedicated veterinary student who’s crazy about animals and loves turning pet care into a happy, stress-free experience. From playful pups to snuggly cats (and even the quirky small pets), I bring a mix of professional experience and genuine love to every visit. I can provide walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, and even medication if needed — all while making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and totally spoiled. With my vet training, I’m quick to notice anything out of the ordinary, and with my animal-obsessed heart, I’m all about belly rubs, chin scratches, and tail wags. I have also taken care of many pets in the past as well as even bigger farm animals so I am your gal! Whether you’re away for a day or a week, you can relax knowing your furry (or feathered!) friend is in caring, capable hands. Let’s make your pet’s day as fun as possible! It would be part of my day to day routine before going to work or dropping by on my weekends! Either way will make it work with the owners schedule to make it happen! I provide services where I would care for your pet with the utmost responsibility in your home making sure your pet and your property is safely secure and well kept!

I had a wonderful experience with Stacie and would highly recommend her! Great attention to detail, awesome communication, and so caring with my kitties. There was an unexpected hiccup during the reservation (not Stacie’s fault) that she handled so well, which I very much appreciated. She really went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were cared for!
