1. Journey H.
“Journey is so attentive when caring for our pets! She regularly updates us on how they are doing and provides top notch service while keeping our home tidy. We love having her around since we travel frequently. She is THE BEST and we can always trust her to care for our dogs and cats as if they are her own pets. She also knows a lot about animal behavior and health since she worked at a vet clinic for 2 years. Her experience puts our minds at ease when it comes to emergencies.”

About: I've been watching pets for a variety of family and friends for quite some time. I've had to deal with smaller dogs, large dogs, and cats. I pride myself on actually playing with the animals and ensuring they are happy. I've taken a few training courses to understand animals better. I have also taken care of sickly dogs that needed shots and additional care. I have a large yard for walks/playtime. I can accommodate almost any pet needs based on the preference of the owner. Right now I have a very open schedule. I would really like this to be where all my time goes at the moment to ensure the maximum care/comfort for the pet. I have a crafting job were I make clay sculptures. However I can put that down at anytime. I have a large yard. However it isn't fenced. That being said, Neighbors are very far away from me and I would also use a leash. My family upstairs has two small dogs if you're animal is friendly but our homes are separated so your pet will have their very own space. I can offer baths, I have experience with crate training, and anything else you may need. Dogs and cat are also allowed on my furniture. Although if you aren't comfortable with that I don't have to let them do so. I also refuse to leave animals unattended.

4. Isabel H.
“Isabel is a kind and reliable pet caregiver. She has extensive experience taking care of animals, and she goes the extra mile when looking after your pet. When I was away, I asked Isabel to take care of my cat, and she consistently visited to feed and play with my cat. She would also send me photos to update me on how my cat was doing which was really nice. I highly recommend her for all of you pet feeding, walking, and sitting needs!”

10. Terri G.


“After the very first time Terri spent a few hours with our 7 year old lab with severe hip dysplasia we knew she could care for him just as well as well do. It's very evident she LOVES dogs! After we returned from our first long weekend away, we knew our fur boy would always be in good/skilled hands.”

“She was a fanatic sitter and responded quickly when messaged. She took the dogs on lots of hikes and even found scout his new favorite tv show.”


13. Sherri S.


“Sherri did a wonderful job taking care of my babies. She sent frequent updates WITH pictures showing me that everyone was eating, playing outside, and relaxing. I saw no stress with any of them. Sherri was always on time and she made it easy for me to feel confident in her skills even with short notice for this job and my newness to using Rover. She left the house even cleaner than it was to begin with! I am so happy to know there’s someone who can come and stay with my older pets if I need it and they can remain in their own home in comfort and with less stress than being put in a kennel. This is the service I’ve been looking for in this area, and Sherri’s care is worth every penny of the cost. Thank you! I would highly recommend!”


14. Sarah S.

“Sarah was perfect. She sent daily photos and updates. She did some cleaning (very unexpected but loved). My two girls loved her and didn’t act different, as in sulky or mad, when we got home. I would highly recommend Sarah for house/pet sitting. Thank you, Sarah!”


15. Melani Z.


“We were so nervous to leave our Senior dog with a sitter overnight, but Melani was amazing! She treats Waffle like one of the family, and sends us pictures while we’re gone. I think our dog likes Melani as much as he likes us now! We are so grateful to have her help.”


16. Lillie V.

“Lillie was great with the dogs! She was reliable and communicative for our overnight booking. She was flexible when my plans changed and even tidied up the house! I left her detailed instructions which she followed seamlessly and she sent plenty of happy and cuddly dog pictures. She has quickly become my go-to sitter that I trust.”


17. Laura O.
“Laura is so great with pets. She’s responsible and really loves animals more than anyone I know. She stayed at our house and took care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats. I felt so comfortable and relieved knowing she was with them-I think our dogs were even better behaved when we got back. I wish she could take care of our animals every time we go out of town. Highly recommend!”


18. Yolanda G.
