About: Hi! I'm a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for my own pets and fostering both cats and dogs. I'm an avid walker with a super flexible schedule, so your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and love while you're away. I treat every animal like family—because they deserve nothing less! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I have lots of availability and love being active, so I’m always ready for walks, playtime, and cuddles. My days are flexible, which means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency as often as they need. I care for pets with the same attention and love I give my own. I'm very detail-oriented, neat, and organized. I'll always follow your instructions exactly to keep your pet comfortable and your home just the way you left it. You can trust me to treat both with the utmost care and respect.
“Everything was great. Followed our pets schedule and provided plenty of love. The house was very clean when we returned so that was a huge bonus. Will definitely use again in the future”
“I have nothing but amazing things to say about Marigold!! They took such great care of my dog while I was out of the country for a week and I felt completely confident he was in excellent hands. I think he may have enjoyed his vacation just as much as I did! I received plenty of (super cute) photos and came home to find everything just as I left it. I would highly recommend Marigold and will definitely be booking again in the future.”
“Katie was wonderful! She was very communicative and sent lots of pics and even tidied up before we got home. Our pets are spoiled with me working from home with them all day typically and Katie was able to spend so much time with them that I felt very reassured leaving them. Will be booking her again!”
“Patrick was great with my pets! I went out of town last minute and got very lucky to get a great sitter! I came home and they were happy and healthy! Will definitely use again!! Thank so much for the great care.”
“Tony, Chris, and Dodger took great care of our pups, as always. They graciously cared for our dogs on short notice and were very flexible when our plans changed. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had my own dog for 14 years and walked neighbors dogs when I was growing up. Helped walk/watch friends dogs throughout college when they would be traveling. I work each week day but can watch/walk a dog morning, Lunch time, and post work. I also work close to home and can come let them out multiple times. I have a fenced in backyard with lots of grass that my dog loves playing fetch and taking a nap in the sun during the summer
“We had a last minute trip scheduled and was in need of assistance with our dog. Robin was very helpful, caring and delight to have helping with our dog. She kept us informed of how he was doing, eating, bathroom and behavior. Helped him out with some tummy troubles. We would definitely use Robin again. This was our first time using Rover. From this experience it won’t be our last. Thanks Robin for taking such good care of our dog”
“Ciara was fantastic with our two dogs and cat while we were away. She immediately put us at ease with her calm demeanor and obvious love of animals. I would gladly have her back!”
“Erin was great! She sent lots of updates and took wonderful care of my dog and cat.”
“Carla was so wonderful to work with! We had Carla watch our two dogs in our home over thanksgiving and she took such great care of both the dogs and our home. We came back and she had vacuumed and washed her bedding and everything! Truly went above and beyond! One of our dogs had been having some behavioral issues against the other and we were upfront with needing someone prepared to handle this should it occur. Fortunately they were on their best behavior and in the one instance of aggression she quickly jumped in, separated the dogs, and did exactly what I would have done. I cannot recommend Carla any higher for anyone looking for dog sitting services. I could even tell from the photos she shared how happy my dogs were the entire time meaning she was giving them plenty of love and attention. I will definitely be staying in touch and booking Carla again in the future.”
About: Through my own dog, bear, I have developed a care and compassion for animals. Animals are my passion, and I plan to pursue this passion in marine biology after my undergraduate at JcTc to preserve the biodiversity of our planet. I am a graduate cum laude from high school, I have a total flexibility on weekdays, before 2:00pm on Fridays, and my weekends are open. I have a fenced in backyard, my pet has regular vet visits, I am responsible for insuring my dog the proper amount of nutrition each day. I understand the importance of daily walks, and use a leash at all times.
“Keely is fantastic! She kept us updated about the kids while we were away, and she managed our kids various quirks seamlessly. The house was tidy when we came home and the kids were relaxed!”
“So unbelievably thankful for Betsy! Our dogs clearly adored her and looked so happy in all the pictures she sent over. She communicated quickly and took such great care of our pups. Highly highly recommend!!!!”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Grayson! From the very first visit, it was clear how much love, care, and attention he gives to animals. He treated our pets like his own—sending us regular updates, photos, and thoughtful notes that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dog (and even our usually shy cat!) instantly bonded with him, which says everything about his calming and kind presence. He went above and beyond making sure their routines were followed to a T. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless home. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals, look no further. Grayson an absolute gem, and we feel so lucky to have found him!”
“Aden was very attentive and took great care of our dog. Definitely recommend!”
“Donovan was great with our two energetic pups! You can tell that he loves animals genuinely loves taking care of them. He communicated well and was able to book on short notice for a last second trip. Will definitely book with him again!”

“Jennifer provided daily care for my shepherd mix, Zeus, after I had a major surgery. I had a 6-week recovery period and Jennifer was a god send! She stayed in my home the first 3 nights while I was in the hospital, and then came by several times a day to walk him and make sure he got plenty of playtime and physical interaction. She is always very friendly and polite and left my home immaculate. I highly recommend her.”

You will be hard pressed to find a better dog sitter! Expect above and beyond care and lots of extra loving on your fur babies. Allison is absolutely amazing and prompt with communication. Your dogs will be spoiled!
Sarah is consistently a rockstar! We appreciate all the help she gives us when we have out of town commitments and our fur babies look forward to hanging out!
Melissa was great and easy to communicate! She spent lots of time with the pets and sent lots of pictures. She did all of the extra things and even made sure the house was tidy for us to come home to!
Jenna was great, she took great care of our goldendoodle. She is very communicative and always sent us updates throughout the day. Will definitely use her again to watch our dog
Malcolm is amazing. He communicates so effectively with his daily plans and when he was going to be in and out to take care of Sutter. He is receptive to feedback and implements my requests immediately. He’s one of the best and your fur babies will love him.

Emmi did a great job watching our two dogs while we were on vacation. She provided updates and was always very responsive. We came home to a clean house and happy pups. Thanks again!
This was the second time using Athena, came home once again to a clean home and a happy pup! She went out of her way to come back to my home to feed our pup and take him out when our flight was delayed. I’d recommend her to anyone needing their home and/or pet cared for.
Cassie stayed with our pups for 5 days and did great!! They were both happy boys when we got home. She communicated well, responded quickly to any of my messages, and the house was clean upon returned. Highly recommend, Cassie!
Amanda watched our little Mysa this past week and it went well! Communication was great and we came home to a healthy happy pup. 🙂
There aren’t enough stars for Aleeza!! She recently stayed with our older cat, Zoey, for the second time. She was quick to notify us when Zoey started showing signs of a medical issue, and ended up taking her to the emergency vet. Aleeza stayed for hours until Zoey was seen and admitted. She was treated for a UTI, and the doctors have since identified the need for changes in her care due to CKD. Before her hospital stay and after she picked her up, Aleeza also kept us updated on how Zoey was doing and what she was eating. Thank you so much, Aleeza!! We are so grateful for the care and attention you showed Zoey 😊
Dp and Christian are simply the most conscientious, empathetic, thoughtful pet sitters who have ever cared for my 3 fur babies! They went way above and beyond to make our trip away a pleasant experience for our pets and a carefree one for us! Not only did they provide the highest quality care for our pets ( including bringing a wagon on walks with our senior border collie with spinal deterioration so she could ride home if she became too fatigued), they also left the house perfectly clean, laundered their bedding, AND made us some peach cobbler with peaches in my refrigerator! I highly recommend hiring them to care for your fur babies!
Jenn took amazing care of our pets and home while we were traveling. It is such a relief to come back to a place that looks like we never left and happy pets. Our dog Uno can be standoffish and anxious, and she took care of him like he was her own. This was the first time we had someone take care of him that wasn’t family and it went very well. He clearly had a great time with her and loved being spoiled with car rides. Jenn went above and beyond to make sure our guys stuck to their usual routine. Our cat is very social and misses the dog when he isn’t here. This was the perfect set up and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our babies!
Willow was wonderful — very communicative, asked good questions, and in general made us feel like we were in great hands. We would definitely have Willow take care of our pups again!
Extremely pleased with the house sitting services and care provided for my boy Cork! Highly recommend!
Dante did an awesome job and I came back to my house with zero issues. He kept me informed the entire time and I will definitely be requesting more stays from him in the future.
Lilly did an amazing job! She is super sweet and I’m sure Ollie loved having her! I would have her come back and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants someone who cares about their pets!
Haley does an excellent job with our pup. She makes sure he is well taken care of and our house while we are gone.
