“Jeweliana and Riley did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs, Ruby and Sydney. Jeweliana communicate with me daily through text and pictures. We were very happy with their care that they provided for the dogs.”

“Cathryn is wonderful! She took amazing care of our dog Lucy who is highly energetic. She kept us updated with pictures each day and was accommodating when things popped up. This was our first time using rover after changing dog sitters and I’m so thankful we found her!”

“Siena was fantastic with our dog and cat. Our dog is very skittish, but Siena was very patient with her. She was on time and very friendly. We plan to hire Siena again!”

“Adam was a wonderful sitter for our pets and home. It was very apparent he took excellent care of our pups and they felt safe and comfortable. He was incredibly communicative with updates/pictures which was so appreciated. We will definitely book him in the future!”

“Scott was absolutely wonderful both with our Amos, and our home. We got plants of photos and updates for Amos’ activity and daily happenings, and Scott was quick to respond if ever we needed anything. Scott must be a dog whisperer of sorts, because our Amos had zero issues with us leaving (he ate, did not pace at all, settled and napped per usual, and slept all night, and even cuddled with Scott!).. which is exactly what we were hoping for! We 100% would recommend Scott and will be relying on him again for any of our house/pet sitting needs.”

“Katherine is a wonderful dog sitter and goes above and beyond to care for my two dogs. She is very responsive and always asks questions if an issue arises. I would highly recommend her for your pets needs.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better house and dog sitter than Crystal! She took such wonderful care of our home and, most importantly, our Frenchie while we were away. It was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals, and she treated our pup like her own, giving us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated with messages and photos daily, which made being away so much easier. We returned to a spotless home and a happy, well-cared-for dog. We highly recommend Crystal to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring sitter!”

“Jess was absolutely fantastic with our two elderly pups! She handled giving Layla her medication every morning with ease and made sure both dogs got outside for short walks, even though it can be a bit tricky with seniors. They warmed up to her right away, which says a lot. Jess stayed in our guest bedroom and left the house spotless, just as she found it. She even went above and beyond by picking up extra dog food so I didn’t have to worry about it when I got back. We’re already looking forward to having her watch the pups again later this month. Thanks so much, Jess!”

“Charles did an amazing job with Koda. I received daily updates and pictures on how he was doing. He was even even able to help out an extra night when our flight was cancelled. I would definitely book him again in the future.”

“Johana was wonderful! She kept us updated with pictures, took great care of our fur babies and the house was in terrific shape when we got home. Will definitely book again!”
“Shana was fantastic! She took great care of our dogs and house while keeping us updated the whole time. Our pups were happy when we got back. Highly recommend Shana – 5 stars across the board!”

“Laura did a fantastic job watching my little guy, Cash! She sent me updates and photos which I always greatly appreciate and was flexible with some time changes at the last minute! We highly recommend her!!”

About: I have always had a dog growing up, and everyone I know has dogs. I currently have a cat who enjoys being an only pet, so I am here to get my puppy fixed. Ready to meet new animals friends and make some money on the way. I work a steady 8-5, M-F at a law firm downtown. I live near University Blvd, but don’t mind traveling to meet new pet friends. I am perfectly happy to hang with pets indoors or outdoors. As much as I enjoy playing with pets, I can also go for walks and do feeding schedules.
About: I have a total of 10 years of pet sitting experience. My job duties include feeding animals on the schedules provided, administering treats (if allowed), cleaning food and water bowls, administering medications (oral/topical), if needed, monitoring for signs of illness or injuries, following emergency care instructions if necessary, daily walks or outdoor potty breaks, playtime with toys and activities, cuddles, petting, and attention, and keeping pets on their normal schedules while you are away. The utmost importance for me is to ensure that your fur babies are safe and comfortable while you are away until you get back. Pet sitting is my full time career! So I will be able to devote my time and attention to you and your family! For all of your pet sitting needs. I am comfortable caring for any animals, crated or free roam. If you do not have a fence I am comfortable taking your babies on plenty of daily walks!

I hope you can please consider me as your future pet sitter! I have a pet friendly home that has very big fenced in backyard that is great for animals to play in!
