“Jennifer was incredible to have as Cooper’s dog sitter! She was incredibly responsive, sent plenty of photos while taking Cooper out and spent time playing with him. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Taylor is great! So patient with our two cats - adapts well to treating each to suit their individual personalities. We are very comfortable knowing she is caring for them.”

“Mya was wonderful in every way. She was highly communicative with me and sent lots of pictures and videos. She was also great with my terrified-of-everyone cat. I couldn’t have found a better sitter for my kitty while I was gone. I hope that if I need to travel again, she is available. I wish I could give more stars 😄”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for the past five years. Through petsitting for friends, multiple overnight housesitting stints, and work at a dog daycare, I’ve gained experience with lots of different animals including small and large dog breeds of varying energy levels, cats, fish, rabbits, and chickens. I’m meticulous about feeding instructions and medication administration, making sure each pet gets exactly what they need. I’ve become best friends with a few dogs who love people but struggle with other dogs, so I’m very good at shortening the leash and making space when needed. You’ll never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing because I’m proactive and regular with updates. Ultimately, my goal is to make your pet feel safe and happy and to give you peace of mind while you have to be away. I work part time and remotely, so my schedule is flexible! I have church and family responsibilities that command my attention during the week, but I still have plenty of time, especially on the weekends! Most of my past experience petsitting has been with overnight stays. I’ve always left the environment better than I found it, and because my work is remote, I will be able to give your pet the care and attention they need and deserve.
“Dominique was great with Enzo! I requested a last minute change to the schedule and he was super accommodating. He took great care of my high energy golden. Highly recommend booking with Dominique!”

“Brittany was amazing with my nearly three month old puppy, Ruby! She kept Ruby busy with a walk and playing with all of Ruby’s toys, and by the end of the visit, Ruby was all tired out (which was the goal)! I can’t thank Brittany enough and will certainly be using her again!”

About: My childhood dog was obsessed with my dad, so I didn't *truly* embrace my love of dogs until I moved in with an anxious, expressive Weimaraner 15 years ago. Beyond walking and sitting my sweet "furnephew," I have cared for a sassy Chihuahua, a paranoid bowling ball (aka Pitbull), a ball-obsessed Jack Russell mix, and a shy English Springer. Most significantly, I co-owned a stubborn, aloof Shiba Inu for more than four years, starting at 9 weeks. He taught me a special appreciation for reactive, highly-vigilant, and misunderstood dogs. I was accustomed to writing detailed instructions to make sure my sensitive boy felt comfortable and safe with any walker or sitter. I work mostly from home, and I'm looking to fit in sitting and walking engagements into my downtime to get my dog fix. I will also be available some evenings and weekends. For reliable recurring care, I work with my partner, Mike, a fellow 5-star Rover sitter. With your prior approval, he may occasionally cover a scheduled walk when needed. We coordinate closely and follow the same care routine, communication standards, and safety practices. I live in a dog-free building, but I am ready to take care of your pet in your home to fit your needs. I'm comfortable crating dogs as you deem necessary, letting the dog roam in a fenced-in yard, playing with a variety of toys in your home, or taking your dogs on walks with my full attention.
“Elizabeth is the best! She has cared for our cat several times now, but our cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes and now needs more care. Elizabeth has handled it all like a pro, communicating clearly and being very patient with my nerves. Thank you!”

“Juan is AMAZING!! He went above and beyond with communication and over all care! My pup has special meds and Juan had no problem with it when feeding breakfast and dinner(: Juan went out of his way to go to a pet store to grab a sweater for my pup because it was cold out during their walks 🥹 It was so comforting to know Brody was with someone who goes the extra mile!! 10000% recommend!!!”

“Maria is so thoughtful when taking care of my cat! She provides detailed, fun updates and I can tell my cat enjoys when Maria stops by. Highly highly recommend for someone reliable, timely, and great with cats!”

“Annie was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She really helped our dog feel comfortable (when she knew our dog was missing us). She also left detailed visit reports with pictures. Would definitely recommend to others.”


About: I have been around animals my whole life, horses, dogs, cats, and even fish. Additionally I have been responsible for taking care of dogs since high school and love being around them. I have experience with both puppies and older dogs. Including administering medication. I will treat your dog as if they were my own and provide you as many updates as you like through our your trip. If you have any questions please reach out to me. I have a wonderful older lab that gets along great other dogs (and cats) both young and old. He loves making new friends!

About: I am very reliable, open, and patient. I have grown up with dogs of all sizes, cats, and even a lizard! I am an active individual who enjoys time outside. I am a teacher looking for additional income that fits with my work schedule. I am open to chat about what you and your family need! I care for pets in clients homes. I treat all pets like my own, treating them with patience and kindness. I always intend to build trust between myself and the animals I interact with. I have experience with senior dogs as well.
About: I spent a month caring for an elderly dog back in college. I ensured she received her daily medications and took her on walks on the icy Midwest winter sidewalks. She was a joy to spend time with! I currently work part time and on my own schedule, so I am flexible and able to schedule a visit that can meet your fur-baby’s needs! I wake up early and am available in the mornings and in the afternoons, and also can make time for nighttime visits. I offer drop in services, dog walking and housesitting! I am happy to arrange with you the best possible care for your pet and learn more about how to care for your unique fur-baby! Please tell me your needs and wishes and we will communicate and create a plan together. I am happy to send photos and updates of your pet at the frequency you would like! (By the way, I am known for my photography and have been complimented on the photos I take of pets not only because they are adorable but also because they capture the essence of their personality)
“Amazing as always! We went on a weekend trip without phone service and I did not even worry that the cats were getting wonderful treatment because Erin always takes perfect care of them!”

“Spencer & Julia took great care of my cat and provided a ton of photos during their time with him! They offered plenty of pets, treats, and cuddles and gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation!”

“Lisa took excellent care of our 4 cats and followed our instructions perfectly. It’s clear from the photos that she got them each to warm up to her quickly and spent quality time with them. Definitely recommend!”

“Elizabeth is incredible. She is communicative, responsive, and loves my dog as if she was her own. She always gives updates and is clear with expectations and timing, which I greatly appreciate. Sweet potato loves Elizabeth!”

About: I have two senior pups of my own! One has arthritis and the other needs insulin shots daily, so I’m very familiar with and love going at the pet’s pace on walks 🥰. I worked at a professional pet care company this past summer, and have been taking care of my neighbor’s animals since I was a little kid! I am a college student currently so my schedule is quite interesting! I’d love to use my free time to take care of your babies, and I greatly enjoy the mood boost and exercise that comes from dog walking. My main priority when taking care of an animal is their comfort and needs. If we are going for a walk, I will make sure their harness is secure and we do not interact with other people or animals (just to avoid a reactive situation). If your pet is a senior, I’ll happily go at their own pace! I have two senior babies myself so they can’t be outside for as long anymore. The same goes for shy dogs, I will never force your pet into a situation where they seem uncomfortable being, such as going for a walk when they are fighting the harness being put on.

Jennifer did such an amazing job caring for our 4 kitties, even with the complication of having them in two separate areas to keep them from eating each other’s food. I can tell from the photos that every one of the cats felt super comfortable around her and it put my mind at ease while I was away knowing they were getting true attention on top of their needs being met. Jennifer communicates well, is dependable, and clearly has a way with cats. Highly recommend!

Mya was amazing! My cat Lily usually is very shy and takes a long time to open up, but Mya was able to get her to come out of her shell very quickly. Lily felt comfortable around Mya and was happy and healthy when I was back. Mya is also very communicative. I would definitely have Mya look after Lily again!

Ajia did a phenomenal job taking care of our two cats, and kept us well-informed throughout. She was considerate, making sure she understood any specific needs, as well as thorough and diligent. Just as importantly, our cats looked forward to seeing her arrive! We would recommend Ajia to anyone.

Erin was great. I had Erin come by twice a day to drop-in on my cats. My cats are shy and Erin was able to bond with them even though they are shy. She fed, cleaned the litter boxes and played with them. She provided good updates and shared plenty of photos. Thanks, Erin
