“Alicia was amazing she took excellent care of sheba , she took time to get to know sheba and vice versa, she was very patient and sent lots of photos during her visits which I greatly appreciated. She went above and beyond.”
“Ashley was amazing with our pup! She played with him each visit in addition to the things we asked her to do. When the weather was ok she even took Oliver on walks! She definitely went above and beyond!”

“Jenny was wonderful to work with and left us feeling comfortable leaving our dog in her care. This was our first time using Rover.com and we were very pleased. She communicated well and was very flexible. She managed medication for our dog without any issues, and was very understanding when we had a change to our schedule. I would highly recommend her and will definitely utilize her help again in the future.”

“Liz is great, our dog loves her. I thank her for time and care when we're away. It definitely helps us knowing our dog is cared for! For our next time away were definitely contacting Liz”

About: Had pets my whole life. I walk all the time and know where to take them and have an SUV with enough room to fit them in. Have 2 children who adore all animals. I have a full time job, Tuesday through Saturday, but I’m usually home around 2-4 pm. I’m available every evening and can stop to let them out during the day because of my job flexibility. I love both ends of the spectrum. I love being active and taking dogs for walk/runs. I also love relaxing and cuddling with them and getting to know what their preferences. Will follow all strict diet rules and keep a very clean house to avoid unwanted eating restrictions.
“Dane and Kayla were fantastic! They showed up promptly every morning at 6 AM to feed and care for our pups, which we deeply appreciated. Their communication was excellent throughout the entire visit. One morning, we had a bit of an issue with our Pomsky acting a little too aggressively, but Kayla reached out right away, explained the situation clearly, and worked with us to find a quick and effective solution. We felt our dogs were in great hands the whole time. We definitely hope to use their amazing service again in the future.”

“Susan is so sweet! Both my dogs were well cared for. She met ahead of time and was sure to jump right in and walk them, asked questions, got to know me and my pups, and was very thorough. We’re sadly heading out of the area but I absolutely recommend her and would use her again! Thanks for all the updates and such good care Susan!”

“Kristina was absolutely phenomenal with dropping in with Coop when I went away for an entire weekend!! I booked her to just let Coop out to the bathroom and feed him and she went above and beyond by taking him for walks and playing with his ball outside!! Would totally recommend her for any of your dog sitting needs!!”


“Thank you Tammy….it was so nice to go to VA and not have to worry about anything. Tammy is such a caring animal sitter, from her pictures I can tell that she spent a lot of quality time with Mia and Pebbles too :) I would rebook her again without question. Louise”
About: I’ve always had a dog growing up. I watched friends and family’s dogs growing up when they were away. Your pet will love being with me and everything will be fine!! Im free everyday to come watch your pet!! Fun loving college student looking to make some extra income while enjoying the company of your pet. I have a somewhat fenced yard and I have a dog to keep your dog company. Also a lot of dogs get along with me when I first meet them.
About: I have my own dog who is very energetic. I understand how to watch and care for a dog with a lot of energy and what they need I’m currently working part-time so I have a lot of extra time to care for dogs and any other animals and anything else that is needed. My backyard has a Fence and I have a dog. I have a lot of dog toys and have a perfect environment for other dogs to be happy just like mine.
“Sam was great helping with a drop in visit for Kai ☺️ I received a lot of pictures and could see how happy Kai was while he was there. I will definitely be reaching out to Sam if I need a dog sitter again in the future ☺️”

“My pets were happy and my house was still clean and tidy when I came home. Mark was very accommodating and flexible with his schedule. He also stepped in pretty late in the game before my vacation after my previous dog sitter canceled. Thanks for taking care of my babies :)”

About: Hi! My name is Jennifer, and I am a local high school teacher enjoying summer break and looking to spend my extra time caring for animals. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently care for three dogs, two cats, a rabbit, and a blue tongue skink, and I have experience with many other types of pets as well. My dogs actively compete in agility, scent work, Fast CAT, and dock diving, so I am comfortable working with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines. Whether your pet needs a walk, feeding, medication, playtime, or simply some extra attention while you're away, I will care for them as if they were my own. As a teacher, I am dependable, organized, and responsible. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pets in someone else's care, and I will provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and safe. I have experience with: Dogs Cats Rabbits Reptiles Small animals Senior pets High-energy dogs Multi-pet households I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I currently care for three dogs, two cats, a rabbit, a snake, and a blue tongue skink, so feeding, exercise, cleaning, and spending quality time with animals are part of every day. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule as a teacher on break, which allows me to provide visits throughout the day, walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. During the school year, I continue offering pet care services, but I am unavailable during the school day while teaching. However, I am available before and after school, evenings, weekends, holidays, and for overnight stays. I enjoy staying active with my own dogs through activities like agility, scent work, Fast CAT, and dock diving, so caring for pets fits naturally into my lifestyle. I understand how important routines are for animals and will work to keep your pet's schedule as consistent as possible while you're away. I believe pets are happiest when they can stay on their normal routine. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, exercise, and household routines. I take time to get to know each pet's personality and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while their family is away. Safety is always a priority. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure, keep pets on leash during walks unless otherwise instructed in a safe enclosed area, and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I am comfortable caring for multiple pets and have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles, and other small animals. I also know how important communication is for pet owners. I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are being well cared for while you're away. As a pet owner myself, I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to provide dependable, loving care that keeps them happy, comfortable, and safe.

Kirstin was great with our girl! She followed all of the directions and was super responsive. Our girl was tuckered out after every visit and had a blast. We would definitely recommend Kirstin for your pet care and will be keeping her in mind for our future needs.
