“I used Wendy's drop-in service to watch my cat recently and I am very pleased. She clearly loves animals and my cat took to her instantly, she was punctual, sent pictures and went above and beyond by bringing in the mail and cleaning up after when my cat threw up. I highly recommend Wendy and will definitely use her again.”



“Kristen is a very dedicated and efficient sitter. She was always on time and made our vacation extremely enjoyable knowing our furbabies were safely in her care. Don’t hesitate to use her services…you won’t regret it.”


“Will always contact Seneca first and foremost to watch my pup. I can go to work worry free knowing my dog is happy and well cared for in her company.”

“Laura was a blessing to have watching over my two cats while I was out of town. I will definitely be booking with her again. Absolute professional.”


“Sierra was a wonderful sitter for our kitties. We really appreciated that she was willing to meet us before we booked her (we had never used Rover or any other in-home petsitter before). She was responsive, responsible, and we so appreciated the daily updates with photos. Thank you, Sierra!”


“Kind, responsive, reliable. Thank you!”


“My dog Sui was well cared for and happy to see Robert when he returned my apartment key promptly as scheduled. Thank you Robert and Holly for caring for Sui last minute when I was invited out of town for New Year’s Eve. I would rebook/recommend them for people with larger dogs as they were very comfortable handling my hyper German Shepherd mix dog Sui (90 lbs on a leash).”


About: While you're away, we will play in a huge, fenced back yard, nap in a dog pile in cool shade on the patio, and we will definitely have arts and crafts days. I'm guessing your dog is a better artist than you realize. ;) I'm an illustrator who works from home. I have a dog, a cat, and a parrot who are my family. All of us love small to medium dog visitors. Your dog will get all the love and attention I give my own. If it's pet care in your home you need, then know that early morning drop-in visits are no problem, and if you have other animals, that's fine. I have many years' experience with dogs, cats, alpacas, sheep, chickens, ducks, reptiles, and others. Geriatric and special needs pets are welcome. Leave their care to me, and have peace of mind knowing that even though they will miss you, they will be safe and happy while you're away.

About: I have professional experience with animal care, such as administering medicine and helping with seizures. I have worked with diabetic dogs and have worked with senior dogs with arthritis. I also know how to train dogs and teach them tricks. I have years worth of personal experience with many different types of animals as well. I started working on Rover back in November of 2024. I started this as a side gig but now work this as my full time income. That being said, it means I am available all the time for your sweet fur babies! At your home, while with your pet, I will make sure that they have company and love. We will play in your yard if you have one or I will take your dog for a walk. They’ll definitely be getting as many snuggles as they want, as well! They will be well loved and kept on as normal a routine as possible. I will also ensure that I leave your home as clean as it was when you left it. It’s important to me to make sure you come home to a clean house!

About: I have worked in zoos, wildlife rehabs, and shelters for over 5 years. I am well-versed in operant conditioning training and provided medication to many species including dogs, cats, and birds. My schedule is very flexible, so I can drop by to care for your pet in your home anytime that fits your schedule! I am not available for boarding pets at my home at this time. I am unavailable for long term stays, e.g. longer than one week I always take into account the owner's preferences for their pet. I will adapt to the way you want your pet to be cared for. With my background in the zoo field, working inside specific parameters is how animals get the best care in the way they are used to.

“We asked Brigit to check in on our cat while my wife and I were out of town for two weeks. She has a calm, professional attitude and was quick to respond to questions. After meeting her, it felt easy to trust her with our furry companion as well as letting her into our home. Everyday we looked forward to a photo of our cat from Brigit which really put our minds at ease. We would definitely hire her again.”


About: I've owned and taken care of pets my entire life. Family and friends have relied on me to watch their furkids for many years.

“This is my first time using this service. I didn’t know what to expect. I had reach out to others and either never heard back or they just didn’t explain the process clearly. Finally I found Candice. Candice explained everything from the beginning to the end. We had a meet and great with Candice. She is a very sweet and loving person. I feel like we struck gold with her. She stayed in communication with us the entire time she was sitting out dog. She sent us pictures and even went above and beyond. In the pictures we can tell our dog was happy and comfortable with Candice. We are so grateful for her. We definitely recommend her and will be using her again. Thank you Candice!!”


“Wonderful pet sitter! Sent me pics over the holidays to help me feel closer to my babies”

8. Marlaena S.
“I have known Marlaena for more than 8 years now since she was referred to me by a local vet for my pet-sitting needs. She was absolutely wonderful with both my medium and large-sized dogs and my younger and older 2 cats, while she cared for them from my home for approximately a week. She was perfect in every way for my and my dogs needs: warm, caring, skilled, knowledgeable, fun, and positive in any sort of aspect I can think of regarding animal care. I would totally recommend her for any of your dog care needs! I felt very comfortable from the start about having her care for my animals in my home, and wish she were local to me now so I could continue to use her services! Very sincerely, Shannon W.”
