“Shelby is an excellent communicator, reliable pet sitter, and extremely trustworthy. She took great care of our cats and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Jordan was great to work with, easy to communicate with, kind, punctual, and our cat warmed up to her immediately. We highly recommend Jordan and would definitely request her services in the future.”
“Leaving a pet at home when we go on a trip has always been stressful for us. This was our first time using Rover and we are so glad we did. Kim did an amazing job looking after our cat while we were away. She was punctual, which we were grateful for, so as to keep our kitty's routine as normal as possible. We received daily pictures, as well as texts, on how each visit went. She was quick to respond to all of my text messages and just gave us such peace of mind knowing things were being done just as we would do them while were gone. We will absolutely be contacting Kim in the future for all of our pet sitting needs. Couldn't be happier!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my life. I was apart of the Newfoundland Rescue growing up with two myself. I also have additional experience in retail pet stores and dog handling, as well! If you have any questions; please let me know! I am free every evening after 4:30pm and am available for all services within those times. I’m also free Thursday anytime, as well! If you have any trips you need me to be fully present while you are away, I will be more than happy to work around my work schedule to hang with your furry friends! I always believe in a comfy cozy spot, focusing on enrichment for quality of life of the furry friend, and adhering to the guidelines and preferences of the owner. I strongly believe in own knows best and am super willing to be coached into another part of the furry friends family! My goal is to alleviate any worries or anxieties during this process.
About: I love all animals! I have previously owned and trained a Belgian Malinois rescue and a lab/pit rescue. Both wonderful dogs. I am a navy vet, dog owner and dog lover. I use positive reinforcement training methods, and I know how to read the body languages of animals. I am respectful, neat, and I'll make sure you pet is well taken care of! I offer dog sitting, and occasional boarding services. You can rest easy with the knowledge that if you hire me, they will be my number one priority. I will communicate at least once a day, and more if requested. I live in an apartment and WFH full time, so I'll be able to provide ample attention to your dog! Not that they might need it because my puppy Orion will be begging them to play nonstop! I monitor play time continuously to make sure they get along well. Sometimes if a client's dog DOESN'T want to play I make sure Orion leaves them alone. He'll just be whining on the couch. No matter the size of your dog, I'll make sure they are safe and comfortable. Orion has had experience playing with 100lb German shepherds and snauzers to mini pinchers. He loves all dogs that will play with him.
“Thank you so much Natasha for a last minute drop in. I know he is in good hands when you visit. Your instincts with him are always spot on! Thanks again for another great visit.”
“Our cats were very happy when we got home. They are getting use to Sha which is not a easy thing with these two. They were feral when they were kittens so they are shy and take a while to get use to any one. Sha has gotten Maggie to let her brush her.”
“had a fantastic experience with her who took care of my dogs while I was away. From the start, she were incredibly communicative sending regular updates, photos, and videos that gave me complete peace of mind. My dogs clearly felt comfortable 💗 I highly recommend her”
“This is the 2nd time we called upon Katija and for almost a 2 week trip! She put my mind at ease with daily texts letting us know Arwen was doing well and she took on a few extra tasks like emptying/cleaning out the litter box like a champ. Thank you for taking good care of our little fur baby!!”
“Ashley was great watching my 2 cats. From the first moment we spoke you can see how experienced she is with caring for animals. The updates she sent put me at ease about how the kitties were doing and the pictures she sent were great! I will definitely be having her watch them again. Thank you!”
“Izzy is always amazing with our pets. She is easy going and communicative and always sends lots of pictures of her drop ins. She consistently spends over 30 minutes with our cats and is great! We’ve used her for about 8 months now for week long and weekend trips.”
“Cassidy was really good with my two dogs during our one hour drop in. She arrived on time and was very professional and kind. She seems like a very responsible person. This was just a drop in but I would definitely trust her to watch them while I'm out of town. I'm definitely going to have her back for more drop ins!”
“Acadia was responsive, attentive, and so sweet with my cat, Owen. This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad that we found her—I will absolutely be reaching out the next time I’m away!”
“Elliot was the reason I was able to feel some peace of mind while I was traveling for a week. She came to my house twice a day to take care of my cats and followed all instructions when it came to how to feed them and take care of their litter. I would definitely hire Elliot again as I know I can trust her in my home and with my babies.”
“Therese was great! She went out of her way to meet us on her time before becoming our sitter, was very communicative, fed and played with the cats, and sent lots of adorable pics documenting it all! We'd would love to have her cat-sit for us again!”
