“Jessica was great with my 3 dogs. Was on-time with showing up and took plenty of photos. I will definitely be using Jessica in the future and would highly recommend.”
“Lizzy is great! She took great care of our kitties again while we were on vacation. I appreciated her thoughtful updates daily letting me know how our cats were doing. She even noticed a small scratch near my cats eye and monitored it daily to make sure it didn’t get worse. She is very attentive and reliable.”
“We had an absolutely amazing experience! Suzanne and rick they took such great care of our two dogs and treated them like their own. Every day we received pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the photos how happy and comfortable our dogs were. They were reliable, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with them again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!”
“Abby did a great job dropping in and checking on my pups. She gave great updates, lots of pictures & gave them lots of love! If I ever need anyone to look after my pups again, I know I can count on Abby!”
“Leah was incredibly helpful when I had to leave town for a few days. She came over to meet the pups the day prior and I could tell she really cared about their well being. She sent pictures with updates which made my trip that much easier not having to worry about the creatures. Will use her again if I ever have to fly out of town.”
“Grace was awesome! She left detailed notes on each visit and adorable pictures. She went above and beyond in terms of taking care of our cats as well as keeping our home clean. We will definitely be rehiring her in the future!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I have some vet experience, and have house sat for many friends. I am very patient with dogs and cats. I treat any animal as my own and have personal training experience with my dog as well. I am currently working part time and have a lot of time during the week and weekends to play with your fur babies to give you a piece of mind! Unfortunately I have 3 animals at home so I am not able to have animals at home :( I love dogs and cats and want to help anyone who may not have as much time to get out with their fur babies or for those that just need a breather!
“Stacie handled my dog with such love and care! He wasn’t feeling well when I left for my trip and she quite literally nursed him back to health. He takes a little bit to open up to strangers and she was extremely patient and gracious with him. I came back to a clean and happy little guy. Definitely the best I could have hoped for!”

About: Experience: With over 20 years of hands on experience caring for dogs, I treat every pet like family. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and care. I love staying active with dogs through walks, playtime, and enrichment, but I’m just as happy giving extra cuddles and companionship to those who need a slower pace. My goal is always to make your pet feel happy, secure, and loved just like they would at home. Why choose me? I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely love what I do. I provide updates, photos, and peace of mind so you always know your pet is in great hands. You can trust that your dog will be safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way. I currently have full availability, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care. I’m available for drop ins, walks, and boarding throughout the week, including weekends. I’m very flexible and can easily follow your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and a safe, pet friendly home. I can accommodate crates if needed and always follow your pet’s routine closely. My two friendly dogs are well socialized, but I can easily separate pets if preferred. With my background in education and psychology, I’m highly attentive to behavior and individual needs, creating a calm, structured, and loving environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always have peace of mind.
“Maddie is great! She did drop-in visits with our 12yo pup and made sure to send photos each day. We appreciated her flexibility to do a meet and greet prior to the booking as well. 5 stars!”
About: With 16 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs, behaviors, and well-being. My experience includes everything from daily walks and feeding to administering medication, grooming, and providing loving companionship. I recently left my career as a mental health therapist to homeschool my child. He has a huge passion for animals, and in addition to our pup at home, we both would like more experiences taking care of and being around other animals. We have time out in the community built into his school schedule each day where checking-in or dog walking would fit in nicely. I will work to build rapport and get to know your pet’s behaviors, routines and any special needs. I’ll strictly adhere to your guidelines for feeding, exercise and any special care needed. I’ll be sure to keep your home secure by locking doors and securing gates to ensure the safety of your pet and home. I’ll treat your home with care and communicate with you regularly. I’m highly observant and will watch for any signs of illness or distress in your pet and will address them and reach out to you promptly.

Jessica was absolutely fantastic! She was kind, professional, and made the entire experience enjoyable. She was amazing with both Zucchini and Whiskey and treated them with so much care and attention. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Communication was excellent, and I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. 10/10—I would absolutely book with Jessica again!
Michele took such wonderful care of our cat, Oscar, while we were away! She was attentive, reliable, and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us total peace of mind. Oscar can sometimes be shy, but he warmed right up and we came home to a happy, relaxed cat! We will definitely be booking with Michele again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!
Kasey is a gem we happened to find here on Rover and we are so pleased with her drop-in visit service we used for our male cat. She perfectly delivered what we asked her to do with/for him and it was just above and beyond our expectations! We wish we knew her sooner because we are moving out of the country, but we are going to use her service again very soon. We recommend her 100%!!!
Brooke was absolutely wonderful! Another booking fell through so we reached out to her last minute for drop-in visits for our dog and she was so responsive and was able to accommodate a quick meet and greet. She immediately put us at ease that our dog was in great hands. She was so communicative, sending updates, photos and videos all week to let us know how Bear was doing. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
