“Beth is very attentive with Otto. We got daily updates with pictures. She took him on multiple walks daily, played with him, and spent time relaxing with him so that he was comfortable with her. Otto sometimes has trouble on walks around other dogs, and Beth made sure he was safe when in the leash. Otto enjoyed his time with her!”


“Christina did a great job with Gracie. The first time they met, it was as if they were long lost friends! Christina communicated frequently and sent wonderful pictures while she was at our house. I would definitely book her again.”


“Anna is an excellent pet sitter. She is responsible, compassionate, caring for our dog and takes wonderful pictures. Anna won’t hesitate to call or text you with any questions. She left our dog happy, home clean and us relaxed knowing our dog was well taken care of. Thank You”


“Brittany took care of my 2 senior dogs while we were away for 3 days. One of our dogs requires meds 3 times a day, and she is an over reactive dog. Brittany handled a situation with another dog that was off leash very effectively! My dog does not like other dogs, and she picked up my dog to avoid a potentially dangerous situation. Overall she took very good care of their needs, even walking them a couple times a day when she could have just let them in the fenced yard. I would definitely recommend Brittany to watch over your pets and give them the best of care.”


“Fantastic! Scott was ann absolute lifesaver and helped me when I was In a crunch. He promptly responded to a last minute request . He toolk such good care of my pup Lily, who has separation anxiety. He walked Lily and made her feel comfortable and at ease. My pup was in great hands with Scott, who is an extremely flexible, reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Scott!!”


“Gwen was absolutely wonderful with Chevy! She followed all instructions to a T, sent us tons of sweet updates and photos, and left our home spotless. Chevy was clearly happy and well cared for—we could tell he felt totally at ease. We’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave him and would welcome her back anytime!”


About: I've worked for a dog walking company, wrangled ferrets, and outsmarted wily cats. With nearly a decade of pet sitting experience I'm ready for just about anything your furry friend can throw at me. I'm adept at problem solving and can meet your pet where they need me to be. I have experience administering medication and coaxing the anxious and stubborn out of their shells. I am free most days in the morning and the afternoon if you need a walker quickly. My schedule is flexible and I am willing to work with clients to meet their needs. I will follow any instructions clients give for how much freedom they want their pets to have. I usually like to keep them in sight or in an enclosed area like a fenced in yard when not out on a walk. I like playing and keeping them entertained or sitting quietly together if they're tired. It mostly depends on the energy levels and temperament of each individual.

“Christina did a great job watching my dogs. We had a good meeting before I booked with her and I could tell right away how comfortable my 2dogs were with her. She texted me when she got to my house, sent pictures and texted again the next morning early to let me know the dogs had breakfast and had been outside. She confirmed both our meetings before I booked and confirmed the dog sitting as well which I really appreciated. I will definately use Christina again.”


“Ke'vin was very flexible with scheduling when we had to find someone quickly to leave town for a family emergency. With little notice, he came to our house for a first meeting and then started the next day for a overnight sitting service for five days. Our senior dog is always afraid of new people but Ke'vin sent videos of her and it's clear she warmed up quickly to him and really liked him. He gave her meds with no issue. I'm glad we found Ke'vin on Rover!”


“We would re-book Jillina without hesitation. She is a high integrity, super responsible pet sitter who will make it a priority to comfort and care for your pets. She truly bonded with our felines (2 mature Siberian cats). Her attention to our details, which we clearly outlined, were kept without compromise. We graced her with a lot of latitude in our home which she treated with great respect and did not in any way take advantage of. Our cats will miss her! Jillian personifies the ideal pet sitter.”


“Sydney was a huge help for my family as we needed a sitter for Easter weekend. She visited my girls multiple times and ensured that they were fed. She made sure that they got plenty of time to play and eat treats and provided clear communication to us. I would like to note that I would have appreciated if she wiped the paws of the pups after coming from outside due to the odor. When we came home after the weekend there was a noticeable stench from this. Other than that great job Sydney. Thank you very much.”


About: I have experience dog walking and dog sitting, most importantly making pets feel comfortable and loved in their temporary new home! I have also fostered kittens until they were ready to be adopted! I am currently at home studying for my graduate school entrance exam, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend playing with your pup! I am available to dog sit any day of the week. I have no other pets at home so your pet will receive all my love and attention! I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks.

“Dottie loved her time with Jamie! Jamie took Dottie on a walk and spent some time giving her lots of play and attention. Jamie is a great communicator who was punctual and detailed with her updates. She took wonderful care of our girl!”


About: I have volunteered in many city and suburb shelters walking dogs of all sizes and providing cat enrichment. I have also grown up with dogs and have two cats of my own. All animals deserve the best life and I will treat your pet as my own aka spoiled!! I am flexible because I work from home, so feel free to reach out about any specific times and I can almost always make it work! I will give animals lots of attention, snuggles, play time, or whatever they prefer! I will make sure they feel taken care of and loved because I know I get sad about that when I am out of town away from my kitties!

“Ethan, watched my golden retriever and cat for a few nights while I was out of town. He did a great job. The pets were happy and calm when I got home. Ethan responded right away and kept in touch with me during my trip.”


“Tiffany is wonderful! Great communicator. Took great care of Sampson and her 2 dogs are super friendly and adorable and get along with everyone. I would highly recommend Tiffany! She was responsive, communicated everyday how I was away and let me know how Sampson was doing. Great experience.”


“Stacy is such a blessing!! She was so incredibly sweet! She agreed to meet with me twice before I left and once she began house sitting, she texted me before and after each visit! I had SEVERAL rules and requests and she kept such a great attitude through out the whole process! I just knew my fur baby was taken care of! 10/10 would Highly recommend!”
