About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and bring a calm, patient energy that animals naturally respond to. I’m comfortable with all ages and temperaments. From energetic puppies to sweet senior pets who need a little extra TLC. I’ve helped with crate training, leash manners, and administering medications, and I’m great at tuning into each pet’s unique personality and needs. What sets me apart is the way I connect with animals. I treat every pet like family and always take my time to build trust. Whether it's playtime, snuggles, or a quiet presence, I adapt to what your pet needs to feel safe and loved. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make space in my schedule to give them the attention they deserve. I’m flexible during the week for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care, especially in the mornings, midday, and evenings. I plan my days around each pet’s needs and make sure I’m fully present during every visit. Whether it's a short walk or an overnight stay, your pet will always be my top priority. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely, from feeding routines to leash preferences and medication. I double-check doors, gates, and collars to ensure everything is secure during walks or visits. I also create a calm, loving environment so your pet feels safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m attentive to their body language, needs, and routines, and I always send regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in great hands.

About: I have cared for different types/sizes dogs and cats for over 10 years while family/friends have needed assistance. I will treat them like they are my own and would be happy to provide pictures/updates through out the stay! I am currently working from home, so I am very flexible and can care for and love your pets like I do my own. I am able to make frequent drop-ins or stay with them, whatever makes you more comfortable! I have a 3.5 year old Staffordshire/Lab mix if your dog is needing a friend while you are away. I am also a self proclaimed tug-o-war champ and always enjoy a long classic game of fetch.

She is the "cat whisperer" who knows everything about pets and what makes them live their best life. She has house sit for me many times. I trust her implicitly. She is exceedingly responsible. I have had many many cats over the years and two wonderful dogs and Amalia was good with all of them. I am thrilled to have her watch my home and pets.”
Jennifer H.
“Jennifer is one of the biggest animal lovers that I have ever met. To her, her dogs are not just pets, they are children and she would not have it any other way. If you are looking for someone who will treat your family members like they are a member of their family than look no further. Be rest assured that your pet will be taken care of a spoiled just like you would do at home. I would not trust anyone else to watch my dogs if I was going out of town. Jennifer is simply the best in town!!”
Holford pet parents share their Rover experiences
Angela did a remarkable job taking care of my babies. They grew to love her and are still looking for her every day. I am very fortunate to have found such a wonderful person to take care of my dogs and their needs. Looking forward to another vacation or just a long weekend so they can visit again.
Wendy watched our two dogs this weekend at our house while we were out of town and she was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly communicative and kept us in the loop throughout the weekend with everything that was going on. She made us feel so comfortable having someone at our home who was so responsible and excited to be around our dogs! We will definitely be using Wendy for future dog sitting needs. Highly recommend!
I will leave Birkin with Vicki from now on! She took amazing care of him all week! She provided great communication, walks, special treats and toys for my little guy. Her patience and kindness was so appreciated and I loved working with her. Her home is lovely, her husband is also very kind and plays with the dogs too. I can’t say enough great things about Vicki, thank you so much.
