“Kailey made sure to keep in touch and posted many pics and updates on our kitties. Leaving them home was very stressful for us but she helped put our minds at ease. She is very trustworthy and thorough. I am so glad we found someone who is so knowledgeable about cats to watch them.”

“Heather and team were fantastic! They were able to accommodate our last minute needs and also made each check in fully enjoyable for our pup. The detailed communication and updates from each check in was extremely appreciated! Will definitely keep her in mind for any future needs.”


“My cat was taking a course of antibiotics that she needed to finish while I was away. Emily was so accommodating and flexible, increasing the visits so that Kitty could finish getting all of the medication. Thank you, Emily!”

About: I am currently studying at Wilson College for my Bachelors degree in Veterinary Nursing and am going into my junior year. I have experience volunteering at a cat shelter and I have pet sit friends’ cats and dogs. I as well have had a family dog, Otis for 11 years and my cat, Pearl for 5 years, and my 2 rats Lightning and Rocket for almost 2 years! I absolutely love all animals and I will take the best care of your fur babies as if they were my own while you relax! During these summer months I am (for the most part) a completely open book! I will select the days I am not available, but majority of my time is available! I would make sure your animal feels safe and loved at all times. I will provide them with fresh water always, and treats (with permission). I can also clean up any messes your pet may make in your absence. I also have no problem administering medication, however I would prefer to have a demonstration beforehand or meet beforehand and try with the owner present to ensure your pet is getting the medication they need correctly and calmly! I am able to spend any extra time to play or make sure your pet feels loved and comfortable during your time away!
“Thank you Christine for sitting my kitties and all the pictures you sent with your updates. Christine was quick to respond back when I sent the request. She came over for a meet and greet before I left. Christine was very welcoming very friendly.”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by both cats and dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I have one (spoiled) cat who has been my best friend since I was 10. I regularly cat sit for family and friends and dog sit for my grandparents, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, and care needs. Whether your pet is playful, shy, cuddly, or independent.. I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away! I work as a night shift nurse (7pm–7am) and typically work three consecutive nights during the week. On workdays, I am available for at most 2 drop-ins between shifts, depending on distance and timing. On my days off (usually 3–4 days a week), I have full availability for visits, care, walks, and extended time with your pet. My schedule is consistent, and I’ll always communicate clearly about availability in advance. I follow each pet’s routine as instructed, including feeding, litter care, walks, medications, and any specific quirks. I focus on keeping things consistent so they feel as comfortable as possible.
About: I have been around dogs since I was younger had many dogs growing up and now have one of my own. I have always had so much love for all dogs. I have also have had cats growing up and love them just as much to! I’m currently working part time so available days would be Tuesday Thursday and possibly Sundays or if I need to drop by once or twice on a Saturday if need be! I can gladly play with your dog in your home or yard, take them for a walk or just hang out and keep them company for a bit!
“Let me start by saying how lucky I was to find Danielle…I found her to be a trusted, caring and highly reliable pet-sitter for my senior dog Alfie . Danielle is highly professional and very skilled with pets…my dog Alfie took to her from the moment he met her—and Alfie is a very good judge of character because she is truly one of the best pet sitters on Rover! Ty so much Danielle for the peace of mind knowing Alfie was in such good hands being cared by you!”


“Jule is amazing. She is so caring and compassionate and my dogs absolutely adore her. She has such a calming presence which is very helpful, since my dogs are very excitable. She was able to help me out on very short notice, which made my life less stressful. I highly recommend Jule! She will treat your fur-babies like her own.”

About: I have had dogs since I was 12. They have always been a favorite animal of mine. My family would always ask me to watch there dogs for them when they went away.

My dog is also very friendly and would love some company whenever she can get it! I’m up to doing whatever you want for your pet.
