“Rachelle did such an amazing job! She was great with communicating and I knew boots was in good hands with her. Boots is an emotional snuggly boy and it was nice to know he was getting lots of love!”
“April was wonderful! I unexpectedly needed a sitter last minute and she came to the rescue. My cats and dog were well cared for and April went above and beyond to assure me they were happy and healthy as I was out of the country.”
“Wendy has been amazing! She came out and did a meet and greet with my boys and had such an awesome personality. She was so kind and gave each of my boys equal attention. They love her! One of my boys is just a little puppy and she’s been so amazing with him. She keeps me updated and sends pics. She also makes sure she follows your routine with them. You can tell she loves animals and the work she does. I am so happy to have found her. I highly, HIGHLY recommend her services to anyone looking for someone to help out with their dogs!”
“Christine was very kind and responsive and sent pictures during her drop-in. She cleaned up a little mess one of our babies made and even left some homemade dog treats. Great first experience with Rover, thank you!”
“Libby was a God send. We are so thankful for finding her on Rover. We have been worried for a long time about finding the right sitter for our Archie dog and Libby is the perfect person. I can’t wait to use her again! We were lucky enough to have another sitter turn us down and then we found Libby. Our Meet and Greet was as smooth as possible. When my husband made a mistake on the date and Libby showed up when she was not needed, she graciously came back the next day at the correct time. We couldn’t have asked for anything more for our dog, who happens to require a little extra attention. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Libby!”
“Rodney was great. He came to greet my pups ahead of the service date. He sent me pics throughout his visits and my pups were content and seemed happy when we got home. We will request Todney again.”
About: My whole life my parents have had dogs so I’ve grown up around dogs since I was an infant, this also means that they’ve had quite a few different puppies over the years and I have helped train them. I am the go to person for all of my friends and family. If they need someone to watch their pets while they’re gone I absolutely love seeing their animals and taking care of them and I treat everyone’s animals as if they’re my own and do the things that I would want others to do for my pets. During the school year, I work as a teaching assistant at an elementary school. This means that my summers are very open and free to watch others pets and give them plenty of love and attention. I care for pets in others homes as if they were my own pet, I will make sure to play with them and feed them and get them outside, but also just cuddle them if they like that and give them the space if they also would prefer that.
About: I’m knowledgeable in breed-specific needs and maintain consistency to keep them mentally and physically happy! I have previously taken dog behavior courses and am familiar with dog body language. I have worked with dogs of all sizes and ages! No dog is “too much!” I am comfortable with administering medications and providing grooming for long haired/high maintenance breeds. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs so I am comfortable handling all ages. I have a full-time job but am more than happy to fit time in to take care of your lovely fur baby. My typical shift is 8:00-4:30pm M-F. I have open availability on weekends to provide housesitting! If you are looking for constant care (pet cannot be left alone for 4 hours or more), I am happy to provide that however, I do charge a constant care rate if during the work week as I will need to take those days off and I will need to recoup lost salary. For constant care pets, I do require at least a month’s notice ahead of time so I can get that time off to accommodate. I will never take a sit if my work schedule cannot accommodate it—your pet’s care and safety is extremely important to me. I will work with you to decide if I am the right fit for your pet’s needs and routine. Nothing is worse than upsetting your pet’s routine and comfortability! I now offer drop-visits as well! This is great for people who might need someone to check in your fur baby a couple times a day but does not need around-the-clock needs. I am happy to drop in before work (8am) and can drop by after work! If you’re someone who works longer shifts, this is perfect for you! I am comfortable crating your pet if requested but they are also more than welcome to share a bed with me if they are used to sleeping with you! If you have an unfenced yard, I will keep them on leash at all times. If you have a fenced yard, I will stay out and monitor them until they are ready to come inside. Doors will be locked at all times whether I am in the home with your pet or if I’m at work. If you have any home-alarm systems, I will use them as well.
About: I’ve done dog sitting and other pet sitting before for a few years now. If a family member or close friend ever needs something I’m the one to call. I’m a self employed hairstylist so I get to make my own schedule and be my own boss. I’m flexible and always love new animals. I have a dog and two cats. Each with ranging unique personalities. I enjoy loving them in the way each of them needs to be loved and cared for.
“Very happy with how well Rachel took care of our boys while we were away from home! We look forward to another booking. The peace of mind knowing our pets are well cared for while away is priceless. Thanks!”
About: I have always cared for our family’s pets and have have cared for neighbors and friends pets for years. I am a complete animal lover and want them to be well cared for while you’re away from home. I work for a school so I am free during all school breaks. During the school year I can do early in the morning, in the evenings, and on the weekends. Happy to do drop ins or walks! I will work to build a comfortable connection with your pet, make sure they have their needs met, and make sure they have time to connect and play.
“Brittney was seriously so awesome! While gone on our week long vacation, our handful of a dog and 2 cats were taken very well care of! The updates and communication was fantastic and she was able to give us some tips and tricks for our dog!”
“Annie was attentive and went above and beyond for our (2) cats and our outdoor guinea pig! We appreciated her level of care for each pet’s individual needs. Our white cat is incredibly needy and we were nervous about leaving him either alone or with someone new, but we feel confident about having left him with Annie!”
About: Hello! I work at a vet clinic 3 days a week and love spending time with animals! I am respectful of others' property and will treat your dog like my own. I will be attentive to bathroom and meal schedules, encourage outdoor and play time, and give lots of love! I work part time at a vet clinic, 3 days a week. I’m available weekends and holidays. Depending on location, I may be able to visit your pet on a lunch break! I am very respectful of people’s privacy when sharing their space. I will be courteous and mindful of your boundaries while caring for your pet

“Lauren saved our evening with a last minute drop-in request. She gave us updates and I was able to relax knowing our dogs were taken care of.”
Lauren F.
“Lauren has watched our three dogs many times and it has always been a great experience. One of our dogs can be very picky about people and she loves Lauren just as much as she loves us. Lauren would play with my dogs and made sure they always had fresh clean water and plenty of food(they just free feed). Have her watch your pets and you won’t regret it.”
Ellen S.
“Ellen has taken care of my 3 dogs and cat on several occasions and she’s just AMAZING! My husky, Husky/St.Bernard Mix and Chihuahua just love her energy. There is something about her that animals just love. All of the keys get excited when we go on vacation because they know Ellen is coming for a sleepover 😆 I highly recommend Ellen to anyone who wants someone who will take excellent care of their pets. I will keep using Ellen again and again.”

“Ariana has been caring for our family dogs for years, and it’s always been clear that animals are naturally drawn to her. She’s gentle, responsible, and incredibly loving. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just making sure they feel safe and calm, Ariana goes above and beyond. She’s dependable, communicates well, and always makes sure our pets are happy, healthy, and loved. I can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for their furry family members.”

Cara G.
“Looking for someone caring, responsible, and active? Then Cara Gurnsey is the perfect caretaker for your fur baby! Cara has proven time and again with my own dog and those of others that she will go above and beyond to independently cater to their needs and follow specific instructions. I have seen her handle four high energy dogs while never leaving the fifth (elderly/diabetic/high anxiety) dog excluded from her thorough care. I highly recommend Cara to trust with your precious K9(s).”
