Angela was AMAZING with all my Fur babies , 2 dogs and my cat , all adore her!! It was a challenging job as our 7 year old dog, Rex has diabetes and pancreatitis and on a strict schedule for feedings, glucose checks and insulin shots, Our first time leaving him since he was diagnosed and Thanks to her we felt completely comfortable, constant updates and pics allowed us to have a stress free trip

Cassandra was wonderful with our animals. She took great care of our funny farm. She sent me pictures daily and reminded us that the animals were safe in her care. Our goat ended up losing his horn while we were gone so she was able to clean him up for us and made sure the bleeding stopped. We would love to have her house sit again for us in the future.

Claudia was great! I was very comfortable having her in my home taking care of my fur family. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat, and they all loved her. She was very communicative and send pictures each day which was very much appreciated. I would highly recommend her for house/pet sitting.

About: Ever since I was 10 years old and even younger I have been taking care of animals! From my own , to friends and families as well. Animals aren’t just pets, they are apart of our family! They make life better , I am passionate about making sure they are taken care of and in good hands at all times. I currently have animals of my own, and I take pride into making sure they know they’re loved, fed, and exercised every single day too. I will happily come and let your pets out, stay there and make sure they are fed and watered, let them play for awhile and/or give them a walk to get them out and about. If they would come to my house, I have a fenced part of the yard, 3 other sweet fur babies to help keep your pet company, and land to let them play around safely and get exercise in daily.

Elisheba did an amazing job with my dogs Pedro and Pepe. After a very traumatic stay with an abusive sitter, Elisheba went above and beyond to make sure the dogs were walked, exercised, and loved. She made it a point to communicate with me multiple times a day and provided pictures with their every outing. She really understood that Pedro needs a lot of outdoor time and Pepe a lot of attention. I was finally able to relax during my time away from home, knowing they were in the best of hands. I will be contacting her again in the future. Thank you Elisheba!

About: I've loved dogs ever since I can remember. I have experience caring for every breed of dog imaginable. Never found one I didn't love to the moon and back. I am a firefighter so my schedule can vary but I'll have lots of time to care and love your pup and give them all the scratches they deserve. I treat others' homes just like my own, if not better. I also don't mind grabbing your mail, feeding other pets, or watering plants if needed.

Maxine and Kyle did a fantastic job taking care of my fuzzy babies! I have two dogs and a new kitten that they took care of for me. They sent me pics and videos of them all playing and having a great time. My fuzzy babies had a blast and can’t wait until next time they come to play! Book them today for reliable, trustworthy, kind & attentive care!

About: I have been house sitting/pet sitting since I was 14 years old. I am very reliable and have a flexible working schedule aside from Rover. Pet sitting from me will encourage your animals to still feel loved when you can't be there and decrease their loneliness when you are away. I will make sure your animals are in the absolute best care :) I currently work part time and am blessed to make my own schedule. I am available most weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. Saturdays I am unavailable for the entire day but can still check in with your pets in the morning and evening! I also make my schedule for my other job two weeks in advance and can work around your schedule to the best of my ability. I currently have my own dog and two cats and would love your animals (almost) as much as mine. I understand some pets may have special needs and I am willing to offer this as well as understanding some animals need more love than others and that is no problem. I can feed, water, walk, play, administer medication, love on your animals, etc.

Elli did an awesome job watching my clingy goldendoodle! He typically doesn't do well.with new people so I had a couple meet and greats with Elli prior to us leaving for 12 days. Elli stayed at our home and I would definitely recommend her for anyone else that needs someone to take care of your fur baby.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and absolutely love caring for them! From giving medications, adventurous walks, to making sure they’re fed, happy, and feeling loved, I’m all about keeping tails wagging and pets comfortable. I’m super patient and take the time to understand each pet’s personality—whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and need a little extra TLC. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, spoiled, and right at home while you’re away 🐾 Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I genuinely enjoy making time for animals! Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or check-ins, I’m able to plan my schedule around each pet’s needs to make sure they get consistent, loving care. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I keep a clean, secure environment and follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, medications, and special care. I’m patient and take time to build trust so every pet feels comfortable and safe. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet like family and every space with respect.
