“Justin helped us out on super short notice. He was very attentive, caring, and provided lots of updates and pictures. It’s clear he cares about pets and we’re super glad we found him! Highly recommend!!”


“Thank you for taking care of our kitty! Loren was very easy to communicate with and did everything we requested for the sit. We'll definitely ask her to sit again in the future!”


“Hunter was prompt and attentive to my needs for my cats! One day a bear got into my trash and she even offered to clean it up! I have one cat that is very difficult to find and she went out of her way to find him and take a picture! I am used to detailed updates about how the check in went, but she did take pictures and text me throughout the visit so that was great! Definitely recommend!”



“Kim did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats. She was personable, reliable, and communicative. It was reassuring to know our cats were being cared for by someone who understands how important they are to us. Very happy to have found her!”



“Robin is a 6 Star Pet Sitter! We can't say enough about her wonderful personality and how comfortable she made us fee. It was like we were home with our pets while away. We would not hesitate to hire her again when we are out of town. I highly recommend her as she really was awesome with our pets and even took the time to feed our fish as well. We are totally happy!”


“I’m glad we hired Maddie to take care of our cat Cannoli while we were away. She was punctual each day and spent plenty of time with her. My cat has only accepted 2 other people prior to this but she felt comfortable with Maddie and let her pet/interact with her too. Maddie is very polite, loves animals and responded to my texts in a timely manner. She kept an eye on the house while we were gone and took good care of my plants as well. I highly recommend Maddie to care for your pets!”


“I have three kitties and I recently traveled internationally. Rhys administered 2 oral medications to one of my cats daily, played with them all and kept them happy and healthy! Their litter boxes were taken care of, their water and food bowls were refilled, and we remained in contact about their care. I highly recommend using Rhys!”


“My husband and I knew upon meeting Tara for the first time that she was the perfect fit with our cat, Charlie. Charlie is very shy and usually hides when people come to visit. However, this was not the case when Tara entered our home. Tara did a top-notch job taking care of Charlie during her drop in visits over a period of one month. We were so happy when she sent up pictures and updates. Tara is reliable, kind, professional, and a true animal lover. Cats can be messy with the litter, etc. But with Tara on the job, we came home to a very neat home and well-fed, content cat. We will definitely seek Tara services again. Furthermore, we highly recommend her. Thanks a million, Tara.”



“We're so glad we were able to book Kristy and Chris to do drop-ins for our cat while we were on vacation over the weekend. Kristy and Chris were extremely professional and took detailed notes on the instructions to care for Pemi. We really appreciate their courtesy and timeliness. Would highly recommend them to anyone else in the area!”


About: I’ve taken care of my personal dogs as well as friends and family dogs for years now. I am experienced with dogs of all sizes, as well as all personalities. I am familiar with low energy and high energy breeds, and know how to cater to each of them. I also specialize in dogs that have anxiety as well as reactivity, and know how to monitor their behavior and understand them in a way that most humans and other animals do not. I currently work full time, Monday-Friday so all animals would need to be able to be home alone for around 8-9 hours during the weekdays. My current hours are 6:30am-3pm, so I make a point to be available in the morning before I leave for work, and then after I return from work. This also applies to drop-ins. I make a point to be fully available on weekends since I am away often during the weekdays, but am also home early enough during the week that I can spend the afternoon, evening, and night with your furry little ones. I will care for your pets by following the owners’ and pets’ needs, I never stray from instructions. I will ensure safety precautions are always taken, as your animals safety is my highest priority.

“Marissa was absolutely great! We have two cats with big personalities and she was patient in getting to know each of them. She was quick to respond, polite, and left very detailed feedback! We loved all the pictures she shared too! Marissa went above and beyond to make sure our babies were well taken care of and comfortable while we were away. We are looking forward to working with her in the future.”


About: I'm available to provide the best care for all your furry (or fur-less), scaly, and or feathered friends. I understand that each pet has unique needs, from daily walks and belly rubs for dogs to creating the perfect habitat for reptiles and keeping your cat’s world enriched with toys and cuddles. I offer compassionate care tailored to your pet’s specific personality and requirements, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away. No matter the species, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family, with lots of attention, patience, and of course, treats! I'm currently working and going to school part-time, but feel free to reach out and I'll see what I can do to help you out! I always prefer to provide care in your home, and will treat your home, property and of course your pets with the upmost respect. In addition to caring for your pets, I am happy to bring in the mail or delivered packages, and provide other random services at your request as needed. I may be able to provide boarding care in my home with notice on a case by case basis provided your pet is house-trained and gets along well with my personal pets.


“Lynsey is an excellent choice for any pet owner who wants their pet to be well loved while they're away. She takes the time to make your pet comfortable, gives all the pets and even took care of our crested gecko! Lynsey is a true lifesaver and we were able to rest easy knowing our cat Lynx was in her responsible and knowledgeable care. Thank you Lynsey!”


“Kiera was available on relatively short notice for a drop in. She spent time with my pup and sent along plenty of pictures. Everything was put back exactly as it was left, she was great!”


About: I have been dog sitting for multiple families for around 10 years now. I am 27 years old and work full time. Beginning January of 2025, I will also be starting school (mostly online). Before booking, PLEASE read my schedule posted below. I am available for overnight stays. I love taking care of animals and I have a handful of references I can share with you. Please feel free to ask for the references or any other questions you may have. Thank you. My work schedule: Sundays 9am-4pm Mondays 9am-6pm Tuesdays 9am - 6pm Wednesdays off Thursdays 8am - 2pm Fridays 9am - 7pm Saturdays 9am- 6pm ***Schedule may vary*** please contact me for more info. If you’re close enough, I could potentially stop by on my lunch breaks halfway through the day. Please contact me about my schedule. My schedule does vary, some days might be shorter/longer depending on the week. If you live close enough, I could potentially provide quick drop ins on my lunch breaks halfway through the day. I prefer to care for pets in the clients’ home. Animals are more comfortable when they are on their own territory and are sticking with their familiar routine and surroundings. I like to meet with all my clients in person before pet sitting, so I can get to know them, their pet, their pets’ routine and needs, and also allow the pet to get familiar with me so they aren’t overwhelmed when I first come over!

“April was terrific to work with. She sent me a daily update and pictures and I knew my kitties were safe with her. Excellent communication also. I highly recommend April to care for your pets.”


“Kimberlly was amazing! I would definitely recommend if you are looking for someone trustworthy, responsive and very attentive to you and your fur babies’ needs. I requested her on extremely short notice (within 3-4 hours) and on busy holiday. I was worried that my new automatic feeder stopped working for my kitty while I was away. She not only responded promptly but arrived at my place within 15 minutes to save my kitty. If it hadn’t been for her, I’m not sure if I would’ve received the same care for Majikku. Kimberlly was very sweet upon arrival to my shy kitty. She checked Majikku’s water fountain levels, and fixed her food issue. She even refreshed her litter.Thanks Rover for providing this service and thank you Kimberlly for giving me peace of mind! x”

My dog is super friendly, hyper, and has an endless amount of energy—but somehow, he keeps up with her like it’s no big deal. She always comes back happy, tired, and clearly well cared for. He has a natural way with animals and so much experience—not just with dogs, but all kinds of pets. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in good hands with someone who genuinely loves what he does.
