“Khrys always takes great care of our feisty old lady, Betsy, and ensures she gets her medicine no matter what. With Khrys we know our cat is in the best hands. Thank you, Khrys!”

“Brenda was amazing! My original dog sitter canceled at the very last minute and she came to my rescue. Communication was great, and gave lots of updates. She took good care of both my dog and rabbit. Will be using Brenda again next time I need a dog sitter!”

“Sam is incredibly empathetic person! She took such a great care of our girl and we would highly recommend her to anyone. Looking forward to invite her again when we will be traveling.”

“Rachel is wonderful :) My two rescues can be quite reactive and skittish to just about any change in lifestyle. She's more than willing to jump right in & find what works for everyone. I will be using her as a regular sitter from here on out!”


About: Trusted Dog Lover with Hands-On Experience. Lifelong dog owner with 5 years caring for my own pup, plus experience with dog walking, house sitting, and overnights. I’m dependable, attentive, and truly love caring for dogs. My experience with dogs also ranges from small dogs to large dogs. I’m currently a full time teacher looking to work part time dog walking, and sitting on the weekends. In the summer I will be available any day full time, to help walk, give potty breaks, or even take care of dogs over night!

I also had a playful loving pup to keep yours company if you feel comfortable
About: Hello! I’m Allyson, and I have taken care of dogs of every kind for several years. This includes home visits, playing with your dog, as well as bathing, and feeding. I have experience with both larger and smaller dogs. I am a teacher, I am up very early to check on your dog if need be, or in the afternoon through evening for some undivided attention for your pet. I am comfortable with pet parents using security systems/cameras to watch me lovingly care for their fur babies. Please tell me what will make your pet most comfortable during my time with them!
“Stephanie does a great job with our cats! Even our shy cat seems to like her. She gives good updates that let us just enjoy our trip without worrying about them. I’ve booked with her twice and plan to rebook in the future.”

Medically- I know animal CPR. I know how to give a pet medication. I have taken care of very elderly dogs, handicapped dogs.

Boarded from the bottom, locked on top. No way in, no way out. My backyard/home is a very safe environment for any pet that comes & goes.

“Heeyoung was awesome. We had a wedding to go to and realized last minute that we needed someone to watch Ollie, our 4 month old Basenji. We contacted Heeyoung the day before, she responded so quickly and was able to come to our house, meet Ollie, go over all the instructions and we were all set. She came on the night of the wedding, texted us when she got to our house, she also texted us all the details of her visit, and then again when she left. Such a terrific experience and Heeyoung was so gentle and caring with Ollie. Will definitely will be using Heeyoung for future dog sitting and will be meeting with her over the summer to discuss boarding Ollie when we go on vacation. Thank you Heeyoung!!”

We have a lot of snuggles to give your pups, and lots of walks to take them on, too! I am a stay at home mom so our schedule is pretty flexible! We are up early, and outside often. Any timing should be fine for us to work around. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby. We can play fetch with your pup, give them lots of snuggles, and plenty of walks!

Katelyn is one of the best pet sitters in Rover! She’s consistent and reliable. She gives me daily updates of my babies and pictures, their litterboxes get cleaned and food/water refilled. She goes above and beyond and takes out the litter/trash. I’m confident that my babies are cared for whenever I go on vacation. Highly recommended!

Elaina has been taking care of Max and Coco 4 days a week for several months now and they both just adore her! I have found Elaina to be loving and attentive with both, even getting Max to take his medicine even though he is a pretty stubborn little man! Elaina has been great about communicating with me after each visit and has been super flexible in terms of our schedule. Simply put, you will not find a better friend and care giver for your pet! Thanks Elaina!!
She was most excellent with my Mom's cat, Shadow,. McKenzie made the effort to bond with Shadow and learn how he responds.And she went way beyond to make sure Shadow was provided for, when things got difficult. Thank you, McKenzie, for taking such good care of my Moms Best Buddy, while she is not able to.
