Rhianna was so wonderful with our dogs this weekend! This was our first time using Rover and first time hiring a sitter that wasn’t already family or friends. Due to unexpected circumstances, we requested a booking very last minute, and yet she was happy to accept. During our meeting with Rhianna before we left town, she was so easy to talk to and work with on any instructions for the dogs. The dogs loved her from the second she walked in, and it was very apparent that she has a love for dogs as well. I appreciated the updates she provided during each visit including the pictures. When we got home this evening, both dogs were very happy and acting like a normal day, which tells us all we need. They very much enjoyed having Rhianna take care of them, and it was a clear difference from when they’ve had to be boarded in the past. I highly recommend having Rhianna come take care of your pets, and we will certainly hire her again! 💕 🙏

Titeara was AMAZING. She was like family to my babies. They were so comfortable with her, especially my shy one. She sent many updates and photos and even cleaned up behind them, without asking. She was great and made me being away care free. She was very respectful and treated my house as her own and my babies as her own as well. She is a blessing for sure.

Stephanie was fantastic! She checked in on my boy, walked him, fed him, played with him, and sent me lots of updates and pictures! She gave him lots of love and attention, and he loved her! I wasn't worried about him at all while he was in her care. I definitely recommend Stephanie and will use her again when I need someone to watch my baby! ?

Our regular sitter was out of town. I was super nervous having to find a new one. But, the very first thing Montserrat asked was when could she meet our pups. That immediately put my mind at ease. From the moment she walked into our house, I was no longer nervous. Her outgoing and kind personality was made her easy to talk to. She always kept us updated with pics and videos. She was accommodating when asked if she could feed at a visit that wasn’t previously scheduled. She is very detailed oriented and our Tucker & Miller loved her. We would definitely use her again!

April is wonderful. She quickly won over my rescue who is anxious and very wary of new people. It is clear that April understands and loves dogs. I find her regular updates very helpful and reassuring. I appreciate the attention she gives my dogs during her visits, taking the time to sit with them and pet them, and that she monitors them when they are outside for bathroom breaks. I love coming home to happy dogs and peace of mind. Highly recommend April!

About: I am very conscientious and caring. I have owned and cared for a lot of different animals. I will put your mind at ease and will work with you for the top quality care of your pet. I have a wide open daily schedule. I am an early riser and very flexible to meet your needs. I have a horse I visit and want to fill the rest of my time helping others with pet care. I have experienced firsthand how hard it is to get someone you can trust to look after your furry family and realize it is a need in the community. I currently work with my own two dogs every day to ensure they get the exercise needed and make their dog food from scratch so they remain healthy. I understand that your pet needs interaction and breaks from being by themselves while you are away. Commercial pet boarding just doesn’t cut it and takes them out of their safe familiar environment. Raising their stress levels. They don’t need that in your absence. I can take that stress away and make some friends in the process.

About: I offer dedicated, highly organized care tailored completely to your fur baby's established routine. My schedule allows me to provide consistent mid-day walks and drop-in visits when your pet needs them most. My pet care journey includes extensive, specialized experience with animals at all stages of life. I have successfully raised and trained multiple litters of puppies, giving me a deep understanding of early behavioral training, socialization, and the patience required for young dogs. Additionally, I have hands-on experience raising and fostering young kittens from just 3 weeks old, both those transitioning to solid food, and litters alongside their mothers, which has taught me to be exceptionally attentive to health, safety, and early-stage socialization. Because I don't work a traditional 9 to 5 job, my schedule is exceptionally flexible and open. My weekly routine is built around a consistent daily schedule, which allows me to easily dedicate prime morning and midday windows to your pets when they need a break, a walk, or a feeding the most. While I do manage a few personal appointments during the week, my days are highly predictable. This structured routine means I can provide your fur baby with rock-solid reliability, consistent timing, and the focused attention they deserve. When providing drop-in visits or mid-day walks, I treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect and vigilance. Inside your home, I strictly adhere to your exact feeding guidelines, ensure fresh water is always available, and meticulously follow your security routines, including double-checking door locks, securing gates, and setting alarms exactly as instructed. Out on walks, my focus is entirely on your dog. I practice low-stress handling, maintain total awareness of our surroundings to avoid reactive wildlife or loose dogs, and keep a firm, secure grip on the leash at all times. Because of my background managing energetic puppy litters and young fosters, I am naturally geared toward proactive safety, anticipating risks before they happen so your fur baby stays safe, happy, and comfortable every step of the way.

Titeara was so attentive and responsive, and took wonderful care of my aging kitty while I was away! I felt like my cat was in good hands and really appreciated her thoughtfulness and care. Would recommend her to anyone, she will take great care of your fur babies and you won't have to worry about a thing!
