“Stephanie is amazing! My family went on a 2-week trip and she stopped by each day to check on my cats. Stephanie truly loves animals, and it's clear that she loves taking care of them. She was quick to respond to messages, before and during our trip, and sent a detailed report with photos after each visit. She is responsible and conscientious, and her background and knowledge of animals is a big plus. I could not have asked for a better pet sitter, and I plan to use her again in the future. I highly recommend Stephanie!”
“Natalie is such an amazing sitter! We had to find a new sitter and she is wonderful. She cleaned up some messes one of our older cats made, ensured that their waters were clean, and loved on my cats. Keeping her info for the future!!”
About: I have been dog-sitting consistently since 2016, and it's something I truly love! My budget and schedule doesn't allow me to have a dog right now, but I love getting to care for others when they need someone reliable and trustworthy to help them out! I work part time and have a pretty flexible job, so can work with your schedule and needs. Reach out to me and we'll see if we can work it out! I am very thorough, detail-oriented, and responsible. I always aim to care for your pets the way I would care for my own, so rest assured, they will be in good hands!
“Andrea is very professional and clearly has experience with animals. Our cat Zelda was well cared for during our 8 day vacation and although we missed her we knew she was getting some lovins' along with fresh food and water daily. The pictures she shared with us were much appreciated from her visits. We have booked Andrea for the rest of our vacations this year and feel comfort knowing Zelda will have consistent care while we are gone. We've used kennels before but am thinking no more knowing Zelda would prefer being home without the stress of other animals around, different smells and sounds, etc.”
“I had a great experience working with Akaila! She did daily visits for our cat and also looked after our exotic pets. All the pets were happy and the house clean when we returned. It was a great comfort knowing the pets were in good hands while we were so far away for the week.”

“Maria is my hero. She really saved the day for me. She took excellent care of George and kept him safe while I was at work. She is professional and put me at ease the minute she walked in the door. I felt I could trust her with my baby almost immediately. She definitely has George’s stamp approval too! He looked happy and cozy when I arrived home. Thank you Maria ! Our pets are like kids and it feels good having someone I can trust to take care of him.”
“Eliza was a pleasant delight from beginning (meet and greet) to the end. She left my home a little cleaner (eg dishes) than what it was when I left for a long weekend. She sent sweet pictures of my sweet kitty daily and was easily accessible. I believe myself to be a good judge of character. I can't say enough good things about Eliza’s help. I'm fairly picky and felt very secure with her taking care of my home and cat. I will ask for her services again and give her a ten out of ten overall rating. Ive already left a cash tip for outstanding job!”
About: I have taken care of dogs before in my life and am pretty good at pet care, I do love caring for dogs and animals My schedule is free all the time and I need the extra cash, I do have all the time to take care of others pets. I always make sure the animals have a clean environment and have enough food and water that they have access to and love exercising with them.
“I am so grateful I met Jennifer! She is so sweet and caring and she took great care of my home and my babies 🐈🐈. I always worry so much about my pets when I’m gone and Jennifer really helped put my mind at ease. She’s wonderful- highly recommend her and will be using her services again.”
“I would definitely recommend Brittny, and hire her again to watch my cats. She came over to visit my two shy cats twice a day for nearly two weeks when I was out of town. I know how much patience it required because I had recently adopted them, and it took a long time for them to even come out from under the bed for me. Well, by the last few days, the cats came to love Brittny, and playing with her when she visited. Gave me peace of mind to know they were in good hands while I traveled.”
About: I am exclusively a cat sitter, I do not offer dog services and am only doing this because Rover is making me do it. Haha. I currently at a stay at home mom that travels about 90 miles a day for my daughter's gymnastics, 6 days a week. I have lots of down time to love on your kitties while you are out of town! I am reliably (sometimes too much so) on time. I will go above and beyond to ensure that not only your cat's basic needs are met, but that they are loved and feel safe with my being there and love on them if they want. Having two cats who require someone to come over and cuddle when I leave town, I understand that the typical "cat" personality does not actually exist and that they are their own unique creatures.
