What great dog sitters! Couldn't have been happier with the care, attention, and love my dog received while we were gone. Went above and beyond the call of duty. We feel very lucky to have found them!

About: Rescued two outside cats before and have formed bonds with usually shy dogs/cats. Don’t have much experience with training animals, but will make sure they have enough exercise when needed! I work Monday, Wednesday-Friday from 6am-4pm, so while mornings are very limited, the afternoon/evening walks are all open. I would be more than happy to adding your furry family member to the friends list and be able to take them outside! Making sure the water is filled and they are fed on time when I’m there. If it’s too hot out, outside time would be limited to potty time, but would be happy to make sure they have time to play inside when I’m there!

About: Everyone needs an aunt nearby to check on their dog or care for their dog when you're away. I will spoil your pup with love and attention like I do with my German Shorthair Pointer! I work from home and have the flexibility to take your pup for a walk or stop by for a quick belly rub and potty break. And, of course, a little playtime! I love all breeds and sizes and respect each dog’s individual personality and needs. I can bring my friendly dog, Oscar, along for some play and socializing or come solo to give all my attention to yours! My goal is to help you worry less about your dog while your away from home to give your dog what they need. I work full time from home. My 1/3 acre lot is wonderful for active dogs like our GSP Oscar. Pups who prefer to lounge and snuggle have a spot in my office on the bed next to my desk. Oscar loves dogs of all sizes and so do I! Whether you need daycare or someone to love your pup while you’re away overnight, my lifestyle and home is ideal! I have a 1/3 acre fully fenced yard with lots of room to run! I allow the dogs on the couch and the bed in my office. Oscar is fully vaccinated and takes monthly Simparica. I regularly pick up poop in the yard. My neighborhood is quiet and safe. I am skilled at walking two big dogs at the same time and often do during my lunch break.

About: I've had the privilege of caring for dogs for over a decade. I have experience administering medication, walking, cleaning and playing with puppies and middle age dogs. I am a full time artist with quite an open and flexible schedule. I am available during the day during the week and flexible during weekends. I love playing and spending time with my own cat, catering to her needs and spending time together. I have no issue crating other's dogs if asked.

Matthew did an amazing job coming by our house to check on our cat and gather our mail. He contacted us with updates on how everything was. Would definitely have him house sit again in the future.

Absolutely amazing! Bliss was an amazing communicator, gave great updates, and took really great care of my kitty! She really went out of her way to care for him! My cat is very shy and is very anxious around new people but he LOVED her and warmed up to her the second she walked in. He has never done this with anyone, it’s was so cute and sweet and im glad he found another friend to trust! Cannot recommend her enough!

Margaret did a spectacular job with my two cats. It was the first time leaving them since they were adopted and I was worried how they might react. But when I got home they were so relaxed they hardly noticed me. Barely opened their eyes. The photos she sent let me see how they progressed over four days. Looks like Margaret and one of the cats really bonded. Great picture of him sitting on her shoulder purring. Felt they were well taken care of the whole time.

About: I have a 4-year-old Labradoodle and regularly dog-sit for family and friends. I have worked with multiple repeat clients on Rover, and I have experience caring for 2+ dogs at once, high energy puppies, and large dogs (90+ pounds). I am happy to send photos of your pup throughout their walk or stay and will treat them like family! As a stay-at-home mom, I’m available any time of day and can be fully present for your pup! Morning and evening walks are just me and your dog. Midday walks include my little one along for the ride in a stroller. I know my neighborhood routes well and always prioritize safe, controlled walks. Our home has a fully fenced backyard for off-leash play. Please note: due to allergies in our home, I can only board hypoallergenic breeds — reach out if you’re unsure whether your dog qualifies!

Chelsea is an amazing sitter and I would recommend her to anyone looking for care. She’s thorough, kind, communicative and my dog loves her to pieces. I have a timid dog who needs some extra love, which Chelsea has bundles of. If you book with Chelsea, your pet will be cared for and happy. THANK YOU!!

Amir is my new go-to dog helper! He is highly communicative, asks a lot of questions, is eager to do right by my three beasts, and always open to feedback. My dogs all seem to really like him (and two of them are pretty selective with the people they trust). Amir does a great job! And best of all, he really likes my dogs, and so I know he treats then as well as his own dog!

Dominique is wonderful w our two dogs. We have one rather shy girl, and he really took the time get to know her and make her feel comfortable. Now she snuggles with him whenever he visits. He’s attuned to dog body language, and it’s clear that he truly loves spending time with the animals he’s caring for. He’s there for the snuggles, fetch games, & making our dogs happy. He sends detailed reports and photos w each visit. And he’s a very upbeat, enjoyable fellow to be around. Recommend!

Elena is great and has been taking care of my boys for a very long time. Castle and yuma are big boys with special needs as one is extremely reactive and the other deaf and she handles them both perfectly. She is always on time and my boys love her. Only walker I prefer to use.

About: I am a reliable, caring pet sitter with two cats and a big dog of my own. I have lots of experience caring for others’ pets and genuinely love animals of all kinds. I am happy to accommodate any needs you or your pets have :) I am in college with a relatively easy schedule! I am always available in the evenings and weekends, and happy to visit your pets between classes! The pets I care for always receive endless love and attention, are fed on a regular schedule, and are given as many toys and as much time to play as they want! I am also familiar with administering medicine and physical therapy!

I will definitely continue booking with her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Chelsea was amazing with Ginger. Ginger wasn’t feeling well and was having trouble eating, and Chelsea was so patient and caring with her. She took Ginger for a walk, spent time with her, and was even able to get her to eat. Ginger also got some playtime in. Chelsea went above and beyond! I’d absolutely book with her again :)

Better than a review is when you use the same person over and over. Kai has really taken to Angela. Angela went the extra distance and would pick up things that Kai created like being in a stick from the outside. Highly recommended.

This is my second time having Madison watch my dog Dakota. She does such a great job and I have no worries while away. Although Dakota is an anxious dog, she is very comfortable and enjoyed her time with Madison.
