First time with Violeta and no complaints here! She was thorough with her visit which included plenty of pictures! Easy to communicate. She jumped right in there and had a ball (literally) with the high energy needs of our pup. Will definitely be using her as long as her availability allows.

Gracie watched our two corgis for a week while we were on vacation. She was very professional and came over twice to meet the pups before we left, because it was her first time with them and we usually have family watch them. We received a nice update with pictures each time she came to feed and walk them. They always looked so happy! We felt very comfortable with her and our dogs loved her. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again or recommend to anyone.

I needed a cat sitter very last minute and Jill and Tom came through! I was able to be away from home all week without worry. I got regular updates and photos from each drop in. This was my first time using Rover and needing a sitter in general and it was a very good experience with Jill and Tom that I’d feel confident using again!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many sizes and temperaments for over 6 years. Having two of my own rescue fur babies and helping friends, family, and neighbors, I’ve developed a calm, confident approach that pets respond well to. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every dog like my own—whether that’s administering medication, going on long walks, or simply giving them love and attention while you’re away. I am currently in the process of credentialing for a full-time healthcare job, so I am available at whatever day and times work best for others! I am unable to have dogs at my home, but am happy and willing to follow any instructions you provide me for taking care of your fur baby in their home and environment! I have a car which I can transport them to fun adventures or we can hang out at your house/neighborhood. My 2.5 year old fur baby is also dog-friendly if you’d like your pet to have a dog play companion.

About: My fur baby genuinely makes every day of my life better. Pets are the purest form of love and trust, and it is so special that we get to share that! I love animals of all shapes and sizes, including ones that have more than 4 legs 🕷️ reptiles 🦎 or rodents 🐀 I have been pet/house sitting since my teenage years, for neighbors, family members, and by recommendation. I love the outdoors and being active, if your pet does too we are sure to have ourselves an adventure! Young or senior, your pet will have their needs tended to and their senses engaged (or respect their space if they prefer to have less socialization). I currently do freelance work and I can make and set my own schedule. I have a lot of flexibility to tend to your fur babies! I am a very empathetic human, so making sure your animal is happy and healthy fills me with joy! I respect and understand that every fur baby is different and has their own needs and personality. I look forward to listening & learning what your pet loves and needs!

About: Hello! I’m Erin, a full-time high school teacher and pet-sitter on the side. I’m an animal lover and I have been pet sitting for 10+ years. I have a ton of experience caring for a variety of dog breeds and cats, as well as a few smaller animals (rabbits, hamsters, birds, and fish). I’m calm, caring, and patient, with a soft spot for senior animals. I’ve had a great deal of experience caring for my own senior pets (both dogs and cats). I’ve provided care for animals with diapers, medication, and mild mobility issues. I’m also experienced in caring for diabetic cats and administering insulin, as I’ve helped two of my rescues go into remission. I strive to provide the best care possible for pets, and peace of mind for their owners! I’m currently a full time as a high school teacher, so from 7:35-3:05 on week days, I’m usually at work. If I am pet sitting during the week, I head straight to the pets at the end of the work day. On weekends, I am able to dedicate most, if not all, of the day to spending time with your pets. This is also the case over the summer. I provide pet care in client’s homes, per the directions provided by the clients. Prior to caring for your pet(s), I ask that we arrange a time for me to meet your pet(s) and go over all pertinent information regarding their care and safety.

Beáta has two dogs of her own. Both are rescues. One rescued from the SPCA and the other one just walked in their house one morning off the street. She walks the dogs daily, makes sure they have the best diet and have lots of fun. I can't recommend a better person to take care of your dog.

Erin has watched my pug several times now, including over night for a week straight. She always sends me pics and videos to update me, spends time walking him and snuggling on the couch, and always leaves my place spotless when I return. Doug gets very excited each time she comes because he remembers having a good time with her!
