“We’re so happy we found Elizabeth! Both our dog and our cat trusted her right away, and when we came back from our trip, they were both calm and relaxed. It gave us so much peace of mind to know they had company while we were away. She stayed at our home, everything was great with the house too, and we absolutely recommend her 🙌🏻”
“We were traveling with our 2 dogs and Jenna came over and sat with them while we were able to go explore. She was on time very professional and took very good care of the dogs. Would highly recommend Jenna to care for your pets 😊”
“Joel is the best. A total pro, he took time and care to ensure that our senior chihuahuas felt chill and secure while we were out of town. He handled their high maintenance feeding schedule and complicated personalities with kindness, while keeping us updated on their progress each day. Upon arriving home, I could tell right away that they had a great time with him, as they were both relaxed and happy to see us. We are all so grateful to have met Joel!”

About: I am an experienced pet care-taker of over 15 years and lover of all animals! I currently have one doggo and three indoor cats, as well as caretaking for the neighborhood kitties, and supporting friends with pet caretaking, as needed. I have experience attending puppy behavior training and taking care of elderly cats. I would love to help take care of your furry loved ones! I am currently pet care-taking in a full-time capacity! I am generally available daily, between the hours of 9am-9pm, and can make additional accommodations for overnights, as needed! While I am not offering my home environment at this time, I will honor and respect your space. I deeply value clear and direct communication.
“Lydia has watched our dog Winston twice now and she was great! She sent pictures and was quick to send updates. Our house was cleaner when we came home than when we left and she even watered our basil plant while we were away. I would highly recommend her to watch your pet during your next trip!”
“Ian did an amazing job with our dog and cat (who can be difficult with strangers) while we took a weekend getaway. He sent lots of pictures and updates and we would love to use him again! Highly recommend.”
“Our boys loved Elise and took great care of them! One of our pups is terrified of storms and she did a great job following our care instructions and keeping him safe & calm!”
“Macie was so helpful with my dogs while I was out of state! She kept me closely updated regarding my old and chronically ill dog. She administered many meds and even went to the store to grab something for them. She was exactly what we needed for our week long trip, would definitely recommend!”
“Kept my kitties and dog happy and comfortable. Gave medicine to our sick brand new kitten. Came home to her looking much better! She took care of our house, followed instructions for the alarm and made us feel very comfortable while we were away.”
About: I love dogs and spending time with them. Whether they are my own, a friend’s, or a stranger’s. I thoroughly enjoy walks, games, lazing on the couch with them you name it. I believe the presence of dogs improves nearly all of life’s experiences. Eager to meet more pups and tend to them as needed! I work remotely full time, but there are lulls in days and my work schedule is flexible so as long as there’s Internet access. I enjoy walking before work, during the lunch hour, and after work as well, so the needs of the animals work well with my schedule. Weekends may vary depending on travel plans, but as long as there is ample notice, should be able to work things out! Caring for pet’s in client’s home is completely at their guidance, i.e. no extra food or treats if not allowed, I will not let them on furniture if they’re not supposed to be, if they get fed at certain times, etc. As long as the instructions and guidance is provided I will abide by client’s rules with their pups and homes.
About: Skilled pet sitter with 3 years of experience. I sincerely enjoy spending time with all animals and I strive to treat every cat or dog as if they were my own! Happy to help when and where I'm needed along with providing any critical care that may be required. Please know that I will gladly spoil your pet to the fullest extent (: I'm currently working part-time while also being in the Army National Guard! I tend to be free majority of the week and normally the weekends as well if I don't have drill. Please feel free to message me with any availability inquiries that you may have (: If boarding, I have a fenced in yard along with a spacious home that includes french doors that I can close off from the rest of my house in case I'm babysitting a small kitten or puppy that may require a watchful eye!
“Renée was great to work with and took great care of our pup Maya. She was very responsive and sent lots of great photos. Would love to work with her again!”
“Ryan was a rockstar sitter. It was my first time using Rover to find someone to watch our house and 3 dogs. Ryan was available on very short notice and went with the flow when we asked him to administer medication to one of our pups at the last minute. The dogs loved him from the get go and we could tell in all the pictures that Ryan sent how at ease they were with him. We will definitely be calling him in the future. Thank you so much, Ryan!”

17. David G.
“David has cared for my two dogs on numerous occasions and I can’t recommend him enough if you are looking for a walker or sitter. My girls can be anxious around a lot of other dogs and unfamiliar territory so boarding them can be a scary and stressful situation for them and myself! Knowing my dogs are in David’s care while I am away certainly puts my mind at ease. He pays great attention to detail to their feeding schedule, other special instructions, and updates me on how they are doing. Most importantly, my pups have a wonderful time!”
18. Da'Miya M.
“Da’Miya has been such a kind and considerate pet sitter and my dog absolutely adores her! She’s extremely friendly, caring, and loving towards. I never have to worry because I know my dog is in the safest hands with her. She’s also very communicative which is something I appreciate so much. So grateful to know my dog will always be taken care of with her!!”
