“Anna took great care of my dog, Oso. She sent constant updates and pictures, took him for several long walks and took great care of our home. I highly recommend Anna to take care of your pets!”

“Sari was fantastic with my babies! She was able to watch them for an entire five day window at my house, She took them on walks, was always entertaining them and made them feel safe and happy! I loved the videos and photos. She sent me on vacation so that I could see how they were doing! Wonderful visit.”

“Faith was our first Rover sitter and will be our go to from here on out. She spent a week with our older dogs who require a lot of patience and care. She met their every need and then some. She goes above and beyond in every way. We received updates and pictures throughout her stay. She left the house clean and even left a wonderful letter and treats. Thank you, Faith, for all you did for our fluffy babies.”
About: Most of my experience was from growing up with my cockapoo Casey. He made me realize how much I enjoyed the company of dogs, and it made me more than happy to help family and friends with looking after their own pets when they would be away. I always want to make sure they're kept loved and appreciated and would do my best to make it feel like their routine is the same as it always is. Since I currently have a part-time job from home, I have the flexibility to take care of pets during the day for any food or potty breaks, as well as availability during the afternoon and evening to give dogs the love and attention they need. I live in a home without a fence, however we live in a neighborhood that makes for easy walking. There is also space indoors for dogs to run around and play with toys, which my previous cockapoo would do all the time.
About: Growing up, I had a couple dogs. Along with family and friends always having dogs around, I have always taken care of dogs. I love to walk them, bathe them, and play! I would take care of your fur baby like my own! I have a flexible schedule and work independently so I have plenty of flexibility for you and your baby!❤️ What works for your schedule will most likely work for mine. I look forward to spend time with and take care of your baby and I will enjoy every second! You can trust me with your pet like it’s my own! I am an honest human being with a heart full of love and compassion. I would love to take your fur baby to the park to play and have fun, as well as a jog/walk of course, and I wouldn’t mind giving your baby a bath if need be! Perhaps a trip to the pet store to spoil?! Don’t worry cats will love me too! I know just the spot they love scratched and will offer plenty of playtime.
“Maya did an outstanding job for us. She accepted a last minute request, which included a 6-day stay at our home while we were out of town on vacation. She connected very well with our 72 pound medium Bernedoodle, giving him lots of attention and care. Everything went smoothly and she remained focused and supportive to the end, even when our return flight was delayed by 3 hours. Thanks again Maya.”

“Beth was such a pleasure to have as our dog/house sitter. Our Peach was very well taken care of and Beth was great about sending us updates with pictures! I felt very comfortable with having her be the one to watch our pup as well as the house. Peach was sad to see her go but will for sure be using her again for future traveling! Highly recommended Beth! ☺️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Isabelle was absolutely fantastic! She was so kind and gentle with our dog (Fin), and even performed some tasks above and beyond our ask. We can’t recommend Isabelle enough!”

“Karina is truly the best! She provided immaculate care for our senior dog. I have no doubt that Lilly felt safe and loved with Karina while we traveled. Karina provides multiple updates and pictures throughout her stay. She is also extremely responsive to any messages or questions. We will absolutely be booking with Karina again to watch our senior gal!”

“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!”
“Gabrielle was amazing and watched our dog for almost a week while we got married out of the country. Great updates, helpful questions and an amazing house guest. We will definitely the book with Gabrielle.”

About: I’ve been around animals ever since I was a child. I’ve had to pet sit before for various people. I have dog walking experience, cat walking experience. My dog currently is a senior so I work with her and I’ve worked with young kittens as well as puppies. I’ve also been able to work with a dog trainer. During the summer, I am working part-time on Sundays, so my schedule is very open to pet sitting, etc. I’m willing to do overnights. I’ll have a lot of time to devote to pets. I will care for the pet in my clients home However my client wants (assuming they want the best for their pet). I will do my best to meet the needs of my client and their pet. Personally, I devote a lot of time to my pets when I’m home from school. I have a senior Chihuahua that I monitor and medicate so I’m willing to devote as much time as needed.
“We were happy with the accommodations that was provided for us and our pup . It helped us enjoy our day knowing he was safe . Friendly , kind and awesome care was given and we are lucky to have found her”

“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.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats previously. One little chihuahua back and a cat back when I lived with my parents and recently took care of a big dog back in Washington as well as another cat on my own recently. I'm good with animals, understand when they need to be fed and how much attention they need to keep them happy. I keep a clean apartment and have good space for them to move around. I prefer to be called in advance but am willing to take pets on the same day. If they are dropped during weekdays, I get off at 4pm usually. I like to give a consistent schedule for feeding. I give many walks for any dogs I'm watching. I have two towers for cats. There's a lot of room in the apartment complex to walk dogs and a park close by. I have two cats, so I would prefer to take care of dogs/cats that are known to get along with others.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs almost my whole life! My personal pet care background is incredibly diverse. I currently manage a lively three-cat household with my sweet cuddle bug Lillie, and my sister’s rambunctious and silly littermate brothers, Scout and Sawyer. I am also the proud owner of a childhood calico named Luna, and a Shepherd/golden mix, Osa. Because Osa is a high-energy, reactive dog, I learned a lot from her and personally worked on training her. Additionally, I have experience with senior pets. I lovingly cared for my late childhood dog, Sisi, which included managing her daily medications. I have also administered short-term medications to cats. I specialize exclusively in house sitting at your home, drop-in visits, and neighborhood dog walks. I look forward to giving your pets the absolute best care! :) My schedule is very flexible this summer, which makes it easy to stick to whatever daily routine your pets are used to. Whether they need a mid-day drop-in visit, a walk, or someone to stay overnight to keep them company, I can easily accommodate their regular timing. Since I will be caring for your pets in your home, my main priority is keeping their environment safe and consistent. I am highly attentive to details like securing doors and gates, keeping dogs properly leashed during walks, and following your specific household instructions. I always send regular photo updates and check-ins so you have full peace of mind while you are away.
About: With over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I have worked with animals of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets needing extra patience and gentle care, I understand the unique needs that come with every stage of life. My lifelong love for animals has given me extensive experience with feeding routines, daily exercise, administering medications, senior pet support, and creating a calm, safe, and loving environment while pet parents are away. I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, secure, and cared for in their own home. Whether your pet needs active playtime, companionship, special attention, or quiet comfort, I provide dependable and compassionate care tailored to each animal’s individual needs. I treat every pet like family and take pride in building trust with both pets and their owners. I currently work part time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability to care for your pets throughout the week. I am available 7 days a week for walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and check-ins. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, extra attention during the day, or loving care while you’re away, I have the time and dedication to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I provide loving attention, fresh food and water, walks, playtime, exercise, medication if needed, and plenty of companionship while their owners are away. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times. I also respect my client’s home and follow all care instructions carefully to ensure peace of mind for both pets and owners.
“Ever since bringing home our high-energy working dog, we have really limited traveling, as kennels and day cares do not work for us. McKenzie is truly amazing! This is the first vacation where we were completely relaxed and felt at ease about leaving both of our dogs. McKenzie did send daily updates, was responsive, sent pictures/videos and handled medications. She was able to handle both my high energy 100 lb dog and my senior dog’s needs, as well. I am so very grateful for this experience and for being able to completely enjoy a trip for the first time in 3 years.”


About: Been taking care of a doggo since I was six... From bathing them after a nice roll in some poop to giving them all the snuggles in the world, I have done it all. I know the true responsibility of owning and caring for a dog, as I would tend to all the needs of my lovely golden retriever. They are pure joy & love, and I know they mean the world to us owners, but they also require lots of work! So I'm here to help. With a flexible schedule and a passion for pups, let me be the one to make sure your special k9 is living their best life. Whether it's a brisk walk or a weekend of fetch, it's a happy doggy. I am working from home with a flexible schedule! Eager for a morning and evening walks and afternoon strolls around the block! Always room for pets during the day. No dogs or kids in this apartment. Safe environment for dogs with parks locally to run around or lakes to walk to. Home does have stairs.

Highly recommend Kortney! Leaving my pup for a week is never easy, but she made the entire experience stress-free! She treated my dog like her own and provided regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When I got home, I could tell she had been happy, loved, and exceptionally well cared for. I’m so grateful for the wonderful care Kortney provided and will absolutely book with her again. ❤️🐾

Jillian took such wonderful care of my chihuahua for 4 days at my house. He’s normally very nervous and tends to bark a lot around new people, but she immediately put him at ease. Soon after he never left her side, which says everything about how comfortable and safe he felt with her. It made it so much easier for me to leave him knowing he was being so well cared for and genuinely happy. Jillian was patient, caring, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. I will absolutely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet. It was also so nice that she sent me regular updates with pictures which I really appreciated.

Jo stayed with our nervous, reactive dog Luna for a full week. Jo came over to house multiple times prior to the trip so Luna could get comfortable with her. Jo has a great calm nature about her. We felt very comfortable with her staying out our house and knew Luna was in good hands. Jo gave us daily updates (with pictures). We highly recommend Jo to watch your loved one(s).

Sara was incredible, and I will for sure have her back to watch my house and pup. She sent me updates throughout my trip, and I felt very comfortable with her being in charge of things while I was gone. If you want someone very trustworthy Sara is a sure shot, and I am grateful for her. Very happy, and I will book with Sara again in the future.
