“Chaselyn was WONDERFUL! We unexpectedly needed a sitter within only a days notice. Chaselyn worked around our insanely busy Sunday schedule to come do a meet and greet with our puppers before coming later in the day to spend the night with them 🤍 She sent photos and videos, made sure the pups got good play time and loves, and kept our minds at ease while we were gone. We will DEFINITELY be rebooking with her!!”

“Dennis and Judy were wonderful with our 3 girls (2 dogs and a cat)! We got daily notifications, as discussed. They left the house exactly as it was when we left. They even washed and changed the sheets and towels, which we did not expect them to do. We highly recommend them. We have already booked them for a second stay.”
“Marissa took wonderful care of our dog and house for ten days. She sent daily updates and pictures which really eased any worry we had about leaving her for that long. Marissa also made sure that Gracie got a daily walk. The house was clean when we got home. We would hire her again in a heartbeat!!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Andrea. She took excellent care of our mini dachshunds and kept the house tidy and clean. She sent us pics/ videos and daily updates which we loved. It made traveling so much easier knowing our pups were in good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Allea did a wonderful job watching our cat, dog, hamster, and frogs! She provided photo updates/check-ins and left our home the same way we left it. I especially appreciated the time she spent with our dog, Teddy. It was clear she made sure to give our anxious guy company as he was stress free when we came home. We hope to have Allea over again in the future!”


“Diana is the BEST! She came through at a moment’s notice notice due to a surprise schedule change. She kept my fur babies happy and healthy! She sent me photos and checked-in regularly! I look forward to taking advantage of her wonderful service again in the future!”
“Louis was a fantastic pet sitter! Our 3 girls were happy, healthy, and very well played with. Our house was clean, as Louis washed all the dishes he used. He watered my plants and even left a plant that needed a home behind for me! He was timely with communication and punctual with feeding, and he followed directions perfectly. He is the first person I will ask for pet sitting in the future! I highly recommend Louis and his services.”

“Linda is amazing! We were out of town for a week and had to leave our precious dogs, Harley and Teddy, at home. It was our first time being away from them for so long, and it wasn’t easy. Linda cared for them with so much love, and the boys absolutely loved her. We even came home to a spotless house! We truly recommend her services. Thank you again, Linda — you’re the best! ♡”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I love giving them the care and attention they need. Animals always brighten my day so it brings me great joy when I can return the favor. My schedule is wide open. I do other side gigs but I’m very flexible and can work around whatever time you or your pet needs me. My goal is for your home and your pets to look just like they did when you left. I will treat your home and your pets as if they were a friends/family members, which to me means respecting your privacy and giving your pet a warm, loving presence while you’re away.
“Atlas was great with our animals! Our Dog and Cat were both very well cared for. Atlas was a great communicator and sent us updates every day while we were gone, will definitely be utilizing her services again next time we are gone 😊”

“Gabrielle was wonderful while my husband and I were away for the weekend! She was very communicative and incredibly patient with our cat, who isn’t always the friendliest with guests. She was also very understanding of our dog Teddy’s anxiety and took great care of him, even when he had a few anxious accidents. Our home was exactly as we left it, and she followed all of our instructions perfectly. We would be happy to have her watch our pets again!”

“Patricia took incredible care of our home abd our pup Zoe. Zoe has medication and behavioral needs and Patricia took it all in stride. Communication was great and she really goes the extra mile with your pet while you are away. 10/10”

“Josh is great! He is respectful and responsible. Josh provided pictures of walks with our dog and closed gates which was reassuring to us while we were away. Our home was clean and tidy upon return. I highly recommend Josh and hope to book him in the future.”

“Our boys loved having Kristina stay with them! She is very attentive and made sure they were comfortable. She cares for your pets as if they are her own. Kristina was very communicative and sent regular updates and pictures. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing the boys were in great hands. In fact, we’ve already booked another stay with Kristina! 🐕🦺🐶”

“Ebony was such a trooper when she stayed with our pup while we were getting married. Everything that could have gone wrong did, including washing machine floods, huge storms and power outages. We can home to a clean house and happy doggy. We are so grateful that Obi was well taken care of and Ebony seemed un-phased by all the craziness going on. She was easy to get in touch with and did a great job keeping us updated. We would highly recommend her to anyone! Thanks again Ebony!”

“Summer is a wonderful, conscientious, and highly competent sitter. Our Zoe has issues and needs medication. Summer did all of this perfectly. I was especially impressed by how many questions she asked us when we were meeting and giving instructions. 10 out of 10.”

“Kristen cared for my for and my 2 cats (one with separation anxiety issues) for 6 days. She was pretty darn nice about the cat problems and sent photos and updates regularly. She’s an absolute delight and I will call on her help again. I’ve already recommended her to several of my friends.”

“Danijela was an absolute blessing! This was my first experience using Rover and leaving my pups behind. One is hyperactive and has severe separation anxiety while the other is a grumpy old man. They are not the easiest to handle in Danijela’s care, they seemed happy and well taken care for. We are so happy we chose her and will use her again for sure!”


About: Here’s some Info about me: I am 18, graduated class of 2025, currently just trying to start my life and figure out my goals and ambitions. I’ve grown up around all sorts of animals, also including farm animals and reptiles, I have also helped facilitate 3 Labrador litters. Caring for animals is a huge passion of mine so I am grateful to have the opportunity to spend my time doing this. I am super flexible and under standing. I’m currently working part time in the evenings. I have weekends off. I sometimes work Saturday but I will never double book if I know it won’t work with my schedule, the pets in my care are always my first priority. I love to stay active, so taking animals outside on walks and runs is also enjoyable for me if that’s what your pet needs, I’m super accommodating aswell.
“Sarah did an amazing job with a last minute booking. She took on 3 working dogs, one of whom has heart issues, medications, and special feeding instructions. She and I stayed in communication the whole time and it went off without a hitch…on my end anyways. Sarah was willing to come back in case of any travel issues which I greatly appreciated. Will definitely use her again as I came home to 3 happy dogs!”
