About: I’ve been caring for animals for over a decade. I have fostered over 200 animals in my lifetime. I am known as the dog whisper in my old neighborhood. I feed, walk, bathe, and play with all animals and show them the love they deserve. I currently work Full-time Monday - Friday. However I always have time after work and on weekends to take care of your babies. Having 3 cats and 2 dogs of my own I understand the need of your babies being care for. I have a big backyard that is perfect for playing fetch and zoomed, I also have a fenced in area in my backyard that we let our non trained fur babies play in. I understand some friends enjoy their own home and the same services (such as baths, walks, playtime, and even feeding).

Elena is a great sitter we would recommend to anyone. She came over before we left for us to show her how to care for our cat which was really helpful. She sent pictures and updates regularly and you can tell she really cares about your pet. We are so glad to have Elena nearby and will for sure use her services again!

Kayla K. Was absolutely amazing with our pets! We were nervous at first because our dog weighs 100+ pounds and is super hyper. Kayla handled our Dog perfectly and he absolutely loves her. Her communication is beyond impressive, she’s was very respectful of our home and the list of rules we left, just overall a fantastic experience and she really put our minds at ease about leaving our babies in her care. When we need to go out of town again we will be booking Kayla K.

Amanda did a decent job for a long 2 week, 2 cat watching job for me. I will use her again if I need someone to watch my cats in the future. Try her services out for a day and just describe what you want / expect for the stop in visit. Then modify as needed. I never used rover before so the whole thing was new to me.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. I have experience with everything from playful puppies to seniors needing extra care and attention. I understand how important routines, patience, and love are when it comes to making pets feel safe and happy. Your pets will be treated like family in my care. I offer flexible boarding for pets who are comfortable hanging out at home during the day. I make sure everyone gets their energy out in the mornings, has a safe space while I’m at work, and then gets lots of love, potty breaks, and playtime in the evenings and on weekends. I treat every pet like family and make sure they’re safe and happy while you’re away. Whether your dog needs playtime, snuggles, or just a calm place to relax, I’ll make sure they’re cared for like one of my own.

She did wonderful with my cats and was very very reliable. She was also very responsive and helpful when it came to needing a little extra help. I will definitely be requesting her again.

Kim was great! She arrived on time and spent time with each of the kitties. She even went above and beyond and cleaned up a mess one of them had made! We will definitely have Kim stop by to check on the kitties next time we're out of town!
