“Taryn was great with our animals and very responsive with us while we were away. Can’t compliment her enough and appreciate with the quality of her work.”
“My dog isn’t comfortable just meeting anyone. After meeting Patty, Galen fell very comfortable and was quickly gave her kisses. I immediately knew she would be a perfect fit. During my travels she provide daily updates. She was very responsive to my concerns. During my travels, knowing I’d be returning after 10pm, we had agreed she would stay till about 7pm. Once I arrived in my connecting city, it appeared I may miss my connection and she was more than willing to wait to see if I made my flight. Thankfully, I made my flight and back home to my pets. They both appeared happy to see me, but I could tell they were both comfortable during my departure. Thank you Patty and I’m relieved should I need to travel again that you’ll be here for me. ❤️”
“Lori is officially Aunt Lori to Barley. We've had Lori watch Barley 5, times this summer? We can tell how loved Barley is while we are gone because when we come home, she's just like- oh heeey my other parents. Cool! Lori is family. She loves our pup and we are forever grateful that she keeps taking us on.”
“Kellie was amazing with our two pups! One of our pups was limping and helped with bringing him to the vet and follow up care. Would definitely recommend Kellie!”
“Virginia has an amazing relationship with our doggo. We feel completely comfortable leaving him with her for the week. She was super diligent keeping him (and the house) clean with all of the rain showers. It's also fun to receive her updates with his photos!”
“Elizabeth was simply wonderful! Kind, courteous, and accommodating, and all three of my pets just love her. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you Elizabeth!!!”
“Laura was absolutely awesome!! She was right on time, communicated and sent photos, and took excellent care of our boy. To top it off she has a wonderful personality. I would highly recommend Laura and will definitely book with her again.”
“Russ exceeded every expectation. Constant communication, pictures, and play with our three animals. I would trust and hire him any time to watch our animals, stay at our house, and help out with anything we needed. 15/10, if that were possible. He stayed at our house and cared for our 4 month old puppy, our 5 year old terrier, and our 3 year old cat.”
“Kelsey is Mr. Big’s favorite babysitter! She loves him and treats him like the king he is! ☺️ She is always our go-to when we are in need of a safe and loving sitter.”
“Jennifer was fabulous watching our pups while we were out of town! I didn’t have to worry once and will absolutely use her again. She sent us daily updates and left us a sweet note we came home to.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years — from my own pets to those of family, friends, and coworkers. My heart has always been with animals, and this fall, I’ll be starting my own animal rescue. When your pet is in my care, you can trust they’ll be loved, nurtured, and spoiled! I am currently working a full time day job from 8-4pm Monday through Friday. However, I am available every day from 5-11pm! Weekends I am free from 4-11pm as well! My priority is always to understand your pet’s unique needs. I start by asking what your pet likes, dislikes, and if there’s anything specific you’d like me to do during my visit. While I’m there, I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, and get a potty break before I leave. The rest of the visit is dedicated to enrichment—whether that’s playtime, snuggles, training, or exercise—so you come home to a happy, well-cared-for best friend.
“Karen did an amazing job watching our Millie and Mylo. We really appreciated the daily updates and pictures showing they were being well cared for. We will definitely reach out to Karen if we need a dog sitter in the future!”
“Lexie is outstanding!!!! Pretty sure our house is cleaner after her stay. Both dogs were well taken care of. Our dogs were in a great mood when we came home. My absolute go to sitter.”
“Anabeth took such great care of my pup, sent updates throughout day along with pics! She also washed dishes and towels before leaving! Definitely will keep her in mind for the next trip!”
“At our meet and greet, my first impression of Daniel was, he has a very calm demeanor. Murphy is a very large and energetic dog. Daniel didn't flinch when he came barreling in towards him. He stayed with Pebbles and Murphy for 3 days. He was very early the first day. His communication is OUTSTANDING! I received so many pictures and updates. He even took out the trash! On one day, one of the dogs had vomited before he got here. He sent me pictures and asked what I'd like him to do. The next text I got said that he cleaned it all up, and that there were towels in the trash that he brought with him. He is so prepared, punctual, responsible, and trustworthy. I'm so glad I found him on Rover. I will most definitely book him again if he's willing to come back. I can't say enough good things about Daniel. I was able to relax and truly enjoy my time away with my new grandson and not worry about our fur babies. They were in excellent hands.”
“I new I could trust Daniel when I first met her. She was sincere, respectful, maintained all the information she needed to know about the pets, and more. I really appreciate all the time she has taken out personal life, to help me out.”
“Anna was wonderful with our two dogs. She sent us photos and videos and communicated with us throughout the day. We were able to enjoy a day out where we couldn't bring them with. Thank you so much !!”
