“We always appreciate how helpful Jahada is and how wonderfully she takes care of our pets while we’re away. Our cat warmed up to her quickly and we loved all the photos. Thank you again!”


“Andrew is the best! He was very attentive to our cats and send photos daily. We weren’t worried at all! Communication was wonderful and no issues at all. Would highly recommend him.”


“Heather is thoughtful and reliable, so our pets are happy and healthy while we’re away. Our pets come with some challenges, and Heather is always calm and capable. We appreciate her so much!”


“Kailey was amazing to work with! Her care and compassion for our cat with CH was stellar and her communication was outstanding, she took extra consideration for small details and made sure to follow through with everything. She provided lots of pictures and left us with no concerns while we were away that our girl was well taken care of. Would highly recommend her and will be reaching out to her for all future requests! :)”


About: I have health care experience from my daily career and I've been taking care of all kinds of pets since I was a little girl. This includes several kitten rescues and rehoming. My little girl abby was a recue. Feeding, grooming, litter care needs, emotional support, love, time, and attention all go towards my cat at home on a daily basis. It's a labor of love. I would approach each clients needs with focus on respect, reliability, attention to details, and loving care towards each clients pet. I understand each clients needs will be individual.

“I was in need of weekly drop in visits for about a month in order to ensure our cat's needs were met. Lily’s a small cat, so I initially requested visits every 7 days. I reached out to 2 providers. One declined because of the distance, and the other didn't respond. I was about to join another pet sitting service to see if they had anyone close by and tried Rover again. Amanda’s profile appeared, and bonus, she was only about 5 country miles away from my house. I sent the details to Amanda, and she accepted fairly quickly. A more detailed text followed to let Amanda know where everything was located. I had set up things the best I could before I left to ultimately make it easier for her. We had several texts about the ideal number of days for a visit. We decided to gauge it on the condition of the litter box, food and water after the initial 5 days between my departure and her initial visit. She recommended 5 days, and she changed the visitation dates, as I was limited to only daily, weekly, monthly, etc. and not a specific number of days. Amanda’s reporting and overall communication was great. Her summaries were prompt, comprehensive and clearly painted a picture a job well done. She was also able to get Lily to warm up to her after the first visit. That alone is a minor miracle, as Lily’s quite shy around strangers and even other family members. The bottom line? I was really appreciative of Amanda through this entire process and highly recommend her to anyone needing services close to her.”


About: Dogs and cats have always been apart of my life ! Since the age of 15, I’ve been bathing, grooming, walking, and taking care of my rescue dog, Gucci. It’s something I love doing so much, I even work at a pet store ! I take care of cute puppies and kittens all day and it’s the best. I currently work part-time which means I would have plenty of time with your pet ! I can try to be flexible with my schedule. I can understand and follow specific instructions, ensure safety and comfort, and offer attention and plenty of playtime ! I can also be prepared for emergencies and keeping the home nice and tidy.


“Jule was a God-send for me while I was on vacation! She made sure their food and water was filled, scooped the litter boxes, swept up around the litter boxes, and stayed and played with the kitties for awhile. She took lots of pictures to send to me while I was away. My white cat, Tigger, hides whenever anyone comes over (he only stays out for me) and she had pictures of him laying on the couch!!! He was relaxed and didn’t feel scared. It’s so nice knowing I have someone I can depend on because in the past I have struggled to find someone that I could 100% depend on. Thanks Jule. The kitties thank you too!”

“Jannan did a wonderful job watching my cat, Callie. Callie warmed up to her right away and it seemed like she really enjoyed her company. I would recommend Jannan to anyone looking for a kind and caring pet sitter! I will definitely be using her again in the future.”


About: As a lifelong dog lover and Golden Retriever owner, I treat every pup like family — with patience, structure, and plenty of love. I have experience raising puppies (including crate training and managing food sensitivity) and caring for senior dogs who need a gentler touch. What sets me apart is my calm, consistent approach and attention to each dog’s personality and needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and I truly enjoy building trust — not just with your dog, but with you too. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or keeping routines on track, I’m here to make your pet feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine — I have two lovable Golden Retrievers of my own, so walks, playtime, and structured care are already built into my day. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, consistency, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday exercise, or evening snuggles, I’m used to providing calm, attentive care throughout the day. Pet sitting isn’t just a side task — it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize. Whether in my home or yours, I care for pets with the same love, structure, and attention I give my own dogs. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment with room to play, structured routines, and plenty of snuggles. I keep a consistent schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, and downtime, and I’m happy to accommodate crate training or special needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free — feeding, walks, playtime, and medications (if needed) are all handled with care. I respect your space, follow instructions closely, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could remember. I’ve always been my family’s go to person for watching puppies as well as senior dogs I currently have a part time job so my schedule is open. I’ll have plenty of time to give your pup the care they need! I am a very patient and calm person . I will greet your pup with open arms, catering to their needs for food, water,walks and play time!

About: I’ve had animals since I was a child. I grew up with cats and dogs. Taking care of animals has always been a huge passion of mine. Whether it is taking care of my own, volunteering at rescues, or taking care of the stray kittens in the area, you can only find me doing something animal related. I work at home and make my own schedule so I have a lot of availability on when I can take care of animals and how often I can give them attention. I have one 2 1/2 year-old dog who is very friendly with other dogs and cats. I also have a 13-year-old cat who is very relaxed and gets along well with anyone else.

“I needed a sitter last minute for Leo, my 75lb pitbull. I never had someone just come over to walk him, I always dropped Leo off at sitters place which always worked out well. I figured having a meet and greet prior would be beneficial for both. Nicole's ability and knowledge on handling large dogs was evident from the start. Nicole came twice to walk Leo when I was away. He's a handful to say the least: a leash puller, excitable, high energy, etc. Both visits Nicole sent me pics and details of there walks. In the end, they were a perfect match! Highly Recommend!”


About: I've had dogs in my home my entire life, and owned several cats too. I understand that our pets are part of a family and they deserve the best care! I work from home and am home most weekends. I can easily add another dog in my home comfortably and provide them with individual attention. I have a safe, fenced in yard with plenty of space (and toys) for dogs to play and run around. My adult daughter is also home and is experienced and comfortable with dogs of all sizes.

About: I’m a DelVal graduate with my Bachelor’s degree in Small Animal Science. I’ve also worked with animals at the zoo and at wildlife rehabilitation centers. I love animals and enjoy taking care of them. I’ve had all sorts of pets growing up and have experience with just about any type of animal. I can give SubQ injections as needed and am happy to provide any special treatment or care your pet may need. I’m very flexible with the restrictions I put on my profile so if you have any questions about the services I can provide please feel free to ask. I’ve had bad experiences with pet sitters in the past and I can guarentee I will treat your pet with the respect and love he or she deserves, as well as your home if applicable. Have a nice day!!

From the first time she met my dogs she had an instant connection with them. One of my dogs was even following her to her car to leave with her! She asks about them and can’t wait to see them again. I’m so happy to know someone I can trust to care for them as well as I do!”
