“Wonderful sitter! Denise came and checked on our cat while we were out of town and went above and beyond with providing updates and even brought our garbage cans in for us. We felt great knowing we were leaving our kitty in such good hands and she was well cared for while we were away.”
“Mary-Catherine took wonderful care of our two cats, one older with medication needs and one shy, younger one. She was very responsive and communicated well with any questions. We feel very comfortable with her and are so happy we found her as we were new to the area and were worried about finding a pet sitter we trusted and liked!”
“Our sweet girl Hazel recently lost her brother very suddenly. She has been struggling with anxiety and associated behaviors pretty bad. We hired Emery for daily drop-in’s to give our girl a little extra TLC. Emery has been so patient with Hazel, gently coaxing her outside even when she doesn’t want to go, and even helping us to figure out what her new preferences are. We are grateful for Emery’s attention to detail, her compassion towards Hazel, and responsiveness to us considering Hazel’s changing needs.”
“Emma is a great pet sitter. She was punctual and responsible taking care of our cat. We were slightly surprised how soon and how much our cat loved her. Definitely recommend her.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years, from energetic puppies to giant breeds! I currently have a 4 month old Great Dane named Ozzy, so I’m no stranger to fast-growing pups with big personalities. Some breeds that I’ve worked with include Pit Bulls, Border Collies, a Great Pyrenees, Pomeranians, Boston Terriers, German Shepherds, a Belgian Malinois, Huskies, and more! Pet care is a part of my daily life—I build my routine around the animals I care for. As a pet parent myself, I’m used to early morning feedings, regular walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. I work from home (or have a flexible schedule), which means I’m able to give pets consistent attention and maintain their usual routines. Whether I’m hosting a dog in my home or visiting pets in theirs, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I’m also used to adjusting my schedule to fit specific feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and medication if needed. Because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, caring for them never feels like a chore—it’s a meaningful and fulfilling part of my day. Safety is my top priority when caring for your pets. Whether it’s making sure gates and doors are securely closed, using proper leash techniques, or keeping harmful items out of reach, I take every precaution to create a secure environment. I’m trained and experienced in recognizing signs of stress or discomfort so I can intervene early and keep your pet calm and safe. Building trust with both pets and their owners is essential. I approach every new animal with patience and respect, allowing them to get comfortable at their own pace. Communication with owners is open and transparent—I provide regular updates, photos, and feedback to ensure you always feel confident and informed about your pet’s care. I strive to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel at home. Whether in your space or mine, I adapt to their routines and preferences, providing consistency that helps reduce anxiety and supports their well-being.
“These two were amazing! Really appreciate the care they displayed when it came to my boy and girl. I really am grateful for them and will def use them in the future for sure!”
“Tori was excellent and went above and beyond to take care of my cats. Her detailed updates and photos gave me so much peace of mind while traveling. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook her.”
About: I have life long experience with dogs. From having pets growing up to working as a dog caretaker at a small pet store/rescue. I have a 4 year old mini golden doodle, Fenway, and regularly watch my neighbors pets when they are on vacation. My family loves having extra pups to share our love with! As a stay at home parent, my schedule is very flexible. I am available every day and can board for several days at a time. I have a large fully fenced yard with a lot of shade that dogs are welcome to play in. I also have a large room in my home designated for pups to play and rest.

About: I’m a proud dog mom to two pups—one full of energy and the other a total couch potato—so I’m used to handling different personalities! I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I treat every pet I care for like my own. I’m currently studying online for my real estate license, so my schedule is super flexible! I can easily adjust my day to fit your pet’s needs—whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else—that’s why I prioritize communication and trust. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, and I’m happy to accommodate any special requests or needs your pet may have.

Karns cat parents share their Rover experiences
Tyler has been absolutely incredible! We have had her check on our cats many times. She has always been very dependable, communicative, and never fails to send lots of pictures to keep my mind at ease (im a very anxious pet mom). We just went on two major trips this summer and she was able to care for our babies perfectly, they love her. 11/10 would recommend her to anyone!
