“Samantha was wonderful with our cats! She sent lots of pictures and videos during their check-ins. She played with them, and gave them plenty of love. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”


“Angela is great a great sitter! We were out of town about 5 days and had Angela come 4-5 times per day to take care of our 3 dogs. She checked in regularly, fed, watered and let them out as instructed, but also spent time taking pics and playing with them. By the end of it, they had her trained well 😁! I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch after them again.”


“Tess has been awesome with our 3 month old puppy!! She's super accommodating and very respectful of what we want! I work downtown and my husband is on the road so we needed someone reliable we could always trust! Super grateful we met her and she's willing to always help us out!!! + our little guy loves her!!! ”


“Kaitlyn was awesome! Each day she checked on my kitties she sent me a paragraph of what she did and pictures of the clean litter box, full water and food dish and most importantly that my kitties were happy and well cared for. I will be using her again for a future trip.”


“Jaci is wonderful with my little baby. She always goes above and beyond to make sure my puppy is comfortable and well fed. I travel a lot so I try to book her as often as I can. I don’t know what I would do without her!”

“Michelle is prompt and very loving with our two dogs, Clove (4 year old terrier mix rescue) and Roger (1.5 year old GSD). It’s clear that our dogs are comfortable with her and really want to get to know her as they beg for pets and attention when she arrives. Our dogs are truly our children and Michelle completely understands which we greatly appreciate. We are so happy to have found Michelle on Rover and we can’t wait to continue having her over with our pups! ??”


“Emily did a great job! She was great with my cats, kept us updated and sent us pics. We were able to relax our vacation knowing they were taken care of. We will definitely have her watch them again next time!”


“This is our first time leaving our Nina at home and using someone outside our immediate family or friends to help. I am so impressed at how smooth it was. Maven’s professionalism, the updates with pictures and Nina’s pure content in those photos made it so much easier for us to enjoy our vacation. Thank you so much Magen, we will come back!! :)”


About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was a little girl, I grew up with many dogs and have never lived without one by my side. Friends, family and neighbors always came to me for any dog watching needs! I love any and all kinds of dogs and feel I am very experienced and trustworthy :) I currently am a stay at home dog mom…lol. I am free pretty much all of the time so I can work with your schedule! I have a pretty large fenced in yard with many fun toys and natural treats/bones to play with if wanted. I also have a mini weenie dog of my own who can keep your pup entertained! Remi (my fur baby) loves all dogs, especially big dogs!

“Allison was great! It was awesome getting photo updates while I was gone, and knowing that my cat Rajah was being cared for. Would love to use Allison again in the future when we’re out of town.”


About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats, both for my own family pets and for friends and relatives during extended stays (from a weekend to a week or more). My pet-sitting duties have included feeding and providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, playing fetch, offering plenty of affection, and keeping owners updated with regular communication. I’m also happy to handle basic house-sitting tasks during my visits. At home, I’ve helped care for our family’s two dogs and one cat, including bathing and light grooming for the dogs. Being an active person, I truly enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and even running with energetic pups who love to move. My goal is always to make sure pets feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’m available weekends, and weekdays after 5 p.m. I also offer house sitting, as long as your pets are comfortable being on their own during the day Tuesday through Thursday while I’m at work. I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, walks, and attention when I’m home! I'm an animal lover through and through, and I treat every pet like my own. I give them love, attention, and care while following your instructions to keep them happy and safe. I’m happy to share pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Shannon was fantastic with our pups! We were a last minute booking due to other plans falling through and I couldn’t have asked for better care for the dogs! She sent us many pictures throughout her 30 minute visit. I knew my dogs were well cared for. I will definitely use Shannon again in the future. :)”


About: I have had pets all of my life. I was a pet sitter in college for several families. I also worked at a doggy daycare & boarding facility where I fed, bathed, administered medications, let outside, and worked with owners to provide the best care possible. From June-August I am very open weekdays and weekends. August-May I am open evenings and weekends. I can be flexible with what works best for you. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with love, patience, and lots of belly rubs. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where animals can feel safe, whether we’re at home, on a walk, or just hanging out. I’m reliable, communicative, and respectful of your pet’s routine and your home. I’ve also worked as a nanny and personal care assistant, so I understand the importance of trust, attention to detail, and creating a peaceful environment. Whether your pet needs structured care or just a cozy cuddle buddy, I’ve got it covered!

About: I have had animals my entire life, from hamsters to large dogs. I have had young dogs, seniors dogs, dogs with health issues and dogs who needed physical therapy. I will be switching jobs soon and am looking for something to fill up some of my spare time, and what is better than spending times with dogs! I have cared for many sized dogs, so I am prepared when it comes to walking them however the owner desires. With harnesses, gentle leaders, treats etc.

Maddie P.Star Sitter
“I have known Maddie for almost two years now and I have yet to come across someone in my life who has more genuine love and passion for dogs than her. There are people who love dogs and then there are people who dogs love and it seems like no matter what dog she encounters, it’s like they have been best friends forever. There is no doubt in my mind that she will not only always treat our beloved fur babies with genuine care, love and passion but go above and beyond what is expected when caring for our doggies.”
