“Camilla was amazing and took such great care of our dogs. We appreciated all of the photos that she sent and all of the detailed updates. We will absolutely request her in the future!”


“Sarah had great communication with me and took care of Mako so well! When I came home for the day he was still sleepy and very happy. I will definitely consider re-booking her when needed!”


“Claire was super awesome with taking care of my three cats and keeping me updated on how they were all doing while I was away. Even my cat that is the most afraid of people warmed up to her so Claire definitely did a fantastic job taking care of my trio of cats! I did not have to worry about my cats at all while I was away which was a huge relief. I highly recommend having Claire look after your pets!!”


“Sarah was absolutely fantastic. My dog is extremely shy and she took the time to get to know Weller and make him as comfortable as possible. Sarah was also incredibly attentive and noticed Weller’s ear irritation which I’m so thankful for. This has been my first experience with Rover and Sarah is definitely my go to now!”

Unlike many sitters who simply just want to feed, water, and let the dog out quickly, Margaret made full use of the 30-minute visit by also taking our dog for a walk. We really appreciated this, especially since our dog had been home alone quite a bit and needed the extra attention. Margaret was also timely and reliable. We’ll definitely be using her again!”


“Leah was great! She dropped in to feed let my dogs out. She followed the instructions perfectly and even went above and beyond. They were very happy pups when we got home and she took some great photos as well.”

About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve had a deep love for dogs—I used to rescue street dogs and later joined an animal rescue organization in my hometown. Taking care of animals has always been my passion, and over the years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I started by helping neighbors and friends with their furry companions, ensuring they were happy, safe, and entertained. Now, I’m bringing that same love and dedication to Rover! At my home, your pup will have plenty of space to run and play in my large, gated backyard, fun playtime, and lots of cuddles. Whether your dog loves belly rubs, fetch, or just a cozy place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I treat every pup as if they were my own—because for me, dogs aren’t just pets, they’re family! 💕 Book with me, and let’s give your furry friend a stay filled with tail wags, fun, and lots of love! 🐕✨ Caring for animals isn’t just part of my routine—it’s my passion. Every day, I prioritize creating a nurturing and engaging environment for pets, whether they’re in my home or my client’s. My mornings start with feeding, playtime, and enrichment activities to keep pets happy and stimulated. Throughout the day, I ensure they receive attention, exercise, and companionship tailored to their needs. For cats, this means interactive play and quiet moments of bonding. For dogs, it includes, play sessions, and cuddles. Since I work with a flexible schedule, I can dedicate quality time to every pet in my care, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and at ease. Whether it’s a daily check-in, an overnight stay, or extended care, pet well-being is always my top priority. Your fur baby will always be treated like family. I provide regular updates, photos, and videos to keep pet parents reassured. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure that every pet receives personalized care, love, and attention tailored to their unique needs. In my home, I create a safe, enriching environment where pets feel comfortable and loved—providing playtime, mental stimulation, cozy spaces for rest, and plenty of affection. I keep routines consistent, ensuring pets feel secure even when their parents are away. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their familiar routine—feeding, playtime, and companionship—while keeping their environment clean and stress-free. I understand the importance of trust and communication, so I provide regular updates, photos, and videos to keep pet parents reassured.

About: With extensive experience living with dogs and cats in both small apartments and large farms, I’ve cared for various breeds, including dachshunds, labradors, mutts, and barn cats. With a flexible schedule due to school, I have multiple gaps throughout the day to provide regular check-ins and care for your beloved friendly pet.

“Karla's biggest passion is undoubtably everything to do with animals. Whether it is cats, doggies, or bunnies I can't think of anyone I would trust more with my animals. -She treats every animal as their own individual and as an equal -She has taken care of my cat in a such a thoughtful way that has inspired me to level up my cat dad game -She has given her own animals the best lives possible, doing whatever it takes (nutrition, giving them a comfortable space, lots of love and attention, looking out for their health and needs) -She is a very loving, fair, and thoughtful person in general -She is also very reliable and can be counted on which is probably the most important thing in pet care”
