“Margaret was perfect. She was very accommodating, easy to work with etc. It appears that our two cats liked her a lot and I think she liked them also. She sent several cute photos. She left the house very neat and clean. We were very lucky to find her on relatively short notice. We will certainly hire her again if our needs and her availability coincide in the future.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful. She answered any questions I had and asked anything she needed/was unsure of. My dog Lexi was very happy when we returned and everything was great! Highly recommend!”
“Nora was an excellent sitter for my 2 dogs and cat. She was super patient with our puppy still in the potty training stage and accommodating to all of our pets needs. She always responded quickly to messages & sent plenty of pics and updates. Overall she was very friendly and a wonderful pet sitter, I would highly recommend Nora!”
About: I’ve grown up caring for animals my whole life. I raised my own dog from puppy to 15 year old senior citizen and have been taking care of my friend’s and family’s dogs and cats for years. Whether your pup needs a brisk walk or a trail run, or your cat needs company while you’re away, I bring the same care and attentiveness to pet care that I bring to the hospital. I understand how important your pets are to your family, and I’m here to treat them like my own. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following special diets, and maintaining a calm presence with shy or anxious pets. I currently have a flexible academic schedule and I work hard to fit in pet care throughout the day. I am almost always available first thing in the morning and in the afternoons/evenings and my mid-day availability varies by academic term From walks to house-sits, I follow the simple tenants of 1)“treat every animal as if they were my own” and 2) “treat everyone’s homes with the utmost respect”. Pet owners know best what their animals need so my top goal is providing whatever care that may be, safely, and in the environment that best suits each pet and owner.
“This is my first experience having a sitter through Rover. Olivia was great! She came by my house a few days before she was scheduled to house sit giving me a chance for her to meet my animals and run through their routines. On the day of my planned trip, We reviewed everything again She kept in touch with me throughout my time away. Everything went well. I would definitely Recommend her.”
“Anesa is great. She and Dexter got along famously. We appreciate that she took him on a hike and on playdates with other dogs over the weekend. She also gave us periodic photo updates which were greatly appreciated. We'll definitely rebook the next time we need a sitter!”

“Kira was great. Our pup keeps looking for her in our guest room after bonding during her stay. She was communicative, responsible, and good with our loving but anxious dog. She took him for hikes and walks, kept our house clean, gathered the mail, etc. We would happily have her pet sit again. And Dozer would be thrilled to see her again.”

Kira was wonderful! She took care of our 2 dogs while we were away and did a great job attending to their very different needs. She ran with our young, high energy pup and made sure that our old boy got the loving attention and quiet activity that he needs, too. The house was left ship-shape and her communication throughout her stay was excellent. We highly recommend her care and hope to welcome her back soon!
