“Jen is great with all of my pets and takes great care of my house during house sitting. I appreciate being able to travel for work and not having to worry about Pasha and Eadan.”


“Destiny was absolutely fantastic and took great care of my doggie and even my ferret for 7 whole days! She was consistently in contact with me and went above and beyond while also meeting my unique circumstances with doing house showings while trying to sell my house. Definitely book with her, she’s the best!!”



“We used Monica for a 5 night 6 day house sitting for Buco and she was beyond great!! We had to find a sitter last minute and Monica was great at meeting us promptly for meet and greets. She updated us daily with pics and our boy always looked happy and comfortable. When we arrived home from the week she had left the house better than when we left it. Buco was happy to see us. I feel Monica treated our baby like one of her own and that relaxed both us and Buco. We will definitely be recommending and using Monica's services again very soon!!!”

“I had Abigail come to my house to sit my 3 dogs while i was on vacation. She did great with my babies and took time to make them feel more comfortable with her. She even met with me beforehand to meet the dogs which put me more at ease with using her. Abigal is trustworthy and she was respectful of my belongings. She also brought in my packages and took up my garbage cans which was a huge help. I'll definitely use her services again in the future.”


“We couldn't be happier with Sean's pet-sitting services! He took incredible care of our three cats and our potbelly pig. Leaving our pig can be a source of major anxiety for us, but Sean handled everything with such skill and confidence. It was a huge relief to come home to happy, well-adjusted animals. He truly went above and beyond. Highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking!”


“Skye was amazing! This was my first time using this app so I was not sure what to expect. Skye preceded all my expectations! She took care of my pups like they were her own. She gave one their meds on time every day. She walked them. She played with them. She sent me plenty of pictures and videos to let me know they were well cared for and enjoying their time!! We will definitely be using her again!”


“Lamarr was great with our dogs! He is a very pleasant person to speak w and his dedication to my pets showed with how happy and relaxed they seemed when we got home! Well done.”


About: I have had dogs my entire life and have always ended up having dogs that are in some cases special needs. I truly love to be around animals because their happiness is so pure. I am a nurse by day and an animal cuddler by night. I am able to give medication’s. I work on basic commands. I have taken care of dogs from puppies to senior. If there is something specific that needs to be taken care of while taking care of your loved one, I will definitely work something out. I am currently taking a vacation between my travel contract for nursing and will be available throughout the day. If there is a specific time or day that works best for you, I will try to make it as easy on you as possible. I typically will have the animal on a leash if there is not a fenced in backyard. Of course, depending on the situation I will allow the owner to guide me on how they prefer to have the animal leashed and will take the precautions necessary to keep them safe.

“Annabeth is amazing! She watched 4 of our pets while we were gone on vacation to St. Augustine. She sent pictures of the pets and had great communication skills. She was very polite and gave us great feedback when we asked about how the stay was because this was our first time using Rover. We have already offered her a 2nd job for the winter if she is available because she did so great. This is the person that you want watching your pets! She put us at ease and we felt that our pets and house were in good hands.”


“Katelyn was awesome with our pups! She was attentive to their needs and we came home to two happy dogs! She was so respectful of our home and took care of all the extra things we asked of her too! Such a blessing!”


“Anna did such an incredible job watching our 3 pups while we were on vacation! She sent us pictures often and gave the pups all the love and care they needed! Will most definitely be reaching out again!”


“Dog mom to dog mom or dad , Hanna put my mind at ease while away on vacation. She was super accommodating to our three dogs having free roam of the yard with no fence . She sent updates and pictures . I didn’t have to stress about the pups i knew they were in great hands.”


“Catherine was fantastic. She came over and met Capone twice, before staying with him. She took great care of Capone and was respectful of our home. Highly recommend her and I will definitely be using her again, when I need someone”


About: I fall in love with every pet! Discovering and suiting different characters and needs of pets brings me joy and satisfaction. I improve my skills every day. Petting and playful time are as important to me as checking on pets health. Making sure that pets and their home are safe and in good condition is a must. I always make notes to have complete information about all pets and their surroundings. I have experiences with different dog breeds from Chihuahua to Great Dane, ages from puppies to very old dogs, health issues as blindness, deafness or limited motion and other problems as intolerance or fearfulness. I also love taking care of cats and enjoy every minute of playing with them and rubbing their smooth fur.
