“Awa is the best!!! She treats our dog like she is her own. Awa is the most caring and compassionate person who takes amazing care of our elderly dog who has many health issues and is never “easy” to say the least. We are always able to have peace of mind that our pup is in the absolute best care. Our dog loves her! We would highly recommend Awa and are SO GRATEFUL to have met her.”
“Samantha was AMAZING!! From our meet and greet on my dogs were in love with her. She was so great about sending updates and it was clear in her photos that they both loved her so much. Our house was also well taken care of! We will 100% be using her again.”
“Melia watched our two cats for a week while we were away and did an amazing job. She sent lots of photos and updates throughout the week, was a great houseguest, and even our shy guy was comfortable around her. We came home to two relaxed happy kitties, and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“I will definitely be asking Aech to watch my pup again! I very much appreciated the regular updates on my dog and could tell from the many photos that she was relaxed and happy while staying with Aech, which is not a given for my sometimes anxious dog. Aech did not even blink at my dog’s little eccentricities and special needs, and just happily rolled with punches - highly recommend booking!!”
“Samuel was fantastic! Elvis love him and they had a great time together. Samuel was very communicative, which I really appreciated. He sent pictures and checked in daily, but not too much. He was also honest about our pup’s witching hour when he turns into a monster, and said it was challenging but they managed through it. His honesty is refreshing and comforting. He left our house very clean and neat. He is a professional and that shows in every way. We will absolutely use him again!”
“Todd was such a huge help with Quincy during our recent out of town trip. We were updated with photos daily, and was receptive to requests for helping keep Quincy (and the entry to the house) clean during a rain storm. We will keep Todd in mind for a future booking with Quincy :)”
“Fidana is FANTASTIC!! So much so that I think my cat, Noah, misses her! Haha! She is detail-oriented, quick to respond, and most of all, has a loving heart! She sent photos and videos daily, and reassured me that Noah was doing well! This made a huge difference in my trip because I typically feel anxiety when I’m away from Noah. I highly highly highly recommend her!! I most certainly will be hiring her again! Thank you so much, Fidana, for taking such sweet care of my boy! 😻❤️🙏”
“Tracy was absolutely fantastic with my 6 month old high energy schnauzer. It was the first time leaving her with someone else and Tracy was so helpful, kind, and loving with Addie! Tracy was also very communicative and responsive. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Siena was able to accommodate my last minute house-sitting request and was great! Very communicative, sent lots of happy photos with my dog and made sure he was well taken care of (like putting on calming dog music on my TV for him before she left the house)!”
“Lillian took excellent care of our dogs! Our dogs were comfortable with Lillian from the start, and she followed our detailed instructions in looking after them. Our house was spotless when we got home, and our dogs seemed happy and relaxed. Lillian was conscientious and responded very quickly to my messages. I felt peace of mind with her caring for my dogs while I was away!”
“Nicholle was really lovely and communicative while looking after our senior dog. We were a bit behind schedule and she was very accommodating to our timing. I would absolutely book her again! Thanks Nicholle!!”
About: I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and caring for them with patience, warmth, and attention. I have several years of hands-on experience with dogs, including experience as a dog owner, caring for other people’s dogs, and caring for a puppy. I’m also comfortable giving medications when needed. I understand that every dog is different and has their own routine, personality, and comfort level. I always do my best to make dogs feel safe, calm, and cared for through loving attention, consistency, and gentle care. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to the pets I look after. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting, and I do my best to keep each pet on their usual routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I believe it’s very important to follow each owner’s instructions, routines, and usual way of caring for their dog. I’m very attentive to those details because they help pets feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. I want each dog to feel not only well cared for, but also to have a sense of familiarity and home-like comfort while you’re away.
About: Hi! I’ve loved and cared for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. They hold a very special place in my heart, and even though I have my own fur babies, I never get tired of all the cuteness and joy they bring. I’m an experienced and caring pet sitter who truly enjoys getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your furry friend needs walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or just extra love while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for. I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments—from playful puppies who need structure and gentle guidance, to senior pets who need patience, a slower pace, and attentive care (including medication if needed). I also work well with shy or anxious pets and always move at their comfort level to build trust. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels at home. You can always expect thoughtful updates, clear communication, and someone who treats your pets like their own. I truly love what I do and would be honored to care for yours! I’m currently working part-time, which allows me to offer flexible availability for pet care throughout the mornings, evenings, and most weekends. I’m also open to overnight care and happy to provide services either in my home or yours—whichever best suits your pet’s comfort and your needs. I provide calm, attentive, and personalized care in both my home and clients’ homes, always prioritizing each pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. In clients’ homes, I closely follow instructions and maintain their pet’s normal schedule to keep them relaxed in their familiar environment. In my home, I offer a clean, peaceful space where pets are treated like family with plenty of care and attention. I currently share my home with two sweet, indoor teenage male cats, so visiting pets must be comfortable in a cat-friendly environment. In all cases, I focus on safety, consistency, and clear communication, with regular updates so you feel confident while you’re away.
“My 5 month old puppy loves Roxane. Roxane has helped me out last minute on multiple occasions for overnight drop in visits and it couldn’t have gone any better. She keeps me updated and sticks to the feeding schedule and makes sure my pup gets all the attention she needs. 10/10”
“Jessica is attentive, kind, and thorough. She listened carefully and treated my sweet older dog with care. She communicates well and even wrote notes about her day with my dog so she wouldn’t forget anything. Will use her services again!”
“Had the most wonderful experience with Carolina watching our two 4 year old dogs at our home for a week. She was kind, communicative, clean, thoughtful, and a perfect caregiver for our two girls. I felt very safe knowing she was watching them and appreciated the frequent photos and updates she sent. Our dogs fell in love with her. Would recommend to anyone, thank you again Carolina!”
“Meesii is an absolute life saver !! My baby Lilo fell in love with her right away, and I instantly felt so comfortable having her look after my space. Thank you for being there for me so last minute !!”

My 5 month old puppy loves Roxane. Roxane has helped me out last minute on multiple occasions for overnight drop in visits and it couldn’t have gone any better. She keeps me updated and sticks to the feeding schedule and makes sure my pup gets all the attention she needs. 10/10
Melia was wonderful. She had good communication with me throughout the duration of her time house sitting and watching my cat. She also understood how to properly care for a cat who is more shy and takes time to get comfortable around new people. Melia was able to get my cat to come out and play, which several cat sitters had a hard time doing. I would definitely recommend Melia.
I am a very particular person about my dog and cat and Meagan did such a great job taking care of them. She sent regular communications/pictures and responded whenever I reached out. I came home to a spotless house, she even washed my sheets! I will definitely have Meagan back to babysit!
Fidana was amazing! I have had not so great sitters in the past and she really made me feel so comfortable. I have a 65lb big boy that requires extra attention when walking. She not only kept me post when I was away but constantly sent me videos of my dog. 100/100 Fidana is the best!!
We were so lucky to have snagged Aech when we needed to extend our last trip. Really appreciated the regular check-ins and photos of our girl. Luna was perfectly content with their time together, as were we! Will be happy to leave our pup in such great hands when we head out of town again. Thanks so much 🖤🤍
I cannot recommend Jillian highly enough. I have two cats, Oliver and Bowie, and I recently had to leave town shortly after Oliver was diagnosed with megacolon. As any pet parent who has gone through a health scare knows, leaving your pets behind under those circumstances can be incredibly stressful. I was nervous about being away, especially given the medication schedule and monitoring Oliver required. From the moment Jillian stepped in, I felt completely at ease. She is a true cat person through and through. Not only was she comfortable managing Oliver’s medical routine, she handled it with confidence, care, and attention to detail. She never made me feel like I was asking too much, and it was clear she genuinely cared about his wellbeing. Throughout the stay, Jillian sent consistent, thoughtful updates that gave me real peace of mind. She shared details about how the cats were doing, photos, and little observations that made it obvious she was paying close attention and spending quality time with them. What stood out most was that it felt like she genuinely enjoyed being with them. My cats weren’t just being cared for; they were being loved. When your pet is dealing with health issues, trust becomes everything. Jillian earned mine completely. I came home to two happy cats and felt grateful knowing they had been in such capable hands while I was away. I would book Jillian again without hesitation and fully expect she’ll be my go-to cat sitter for years to come. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, communicative, compassionate, and truly understands cats, you will be lucky to have her care for your pets.
I've had Nick watch Sadie a few times now and it's safe to say he does a great job! Sadie genuinely seems to love when he swings by to watch her for a few days. He's very quick to respond to messages and takes wonderful care of Sadie. Always happy to rebook with him!
Danielle was so great with Bear, and put me at ease while I was away for an extended trip. She stuck to his schedule seamlessly, provided lots of adorable photo updates and made sure my apartment was as clean as she found it. Could not recommend Danielle enough!
Sarah & Karl was our first Rover booking ever. We were super scared because all the tik tok horror stories but knew we had to give this a shot. We started with what we considered to be a trial run (mainly for us and the dogs) so booked them as a drop-in job. It went great. We only booked them for an hour but got an abundance of photos and check in messages throughout the hour. It helped to put me at ease on my husband and I's date night.
Barbara stayed in our home with our 14-year-old Labradoodle, Dolly, for five nights while we attended my mother’s funeral on the East Coast. I would absolutely hire her again. She is reliable, caring, thorough, loving, and kind. Dolly has pretty severe separation anxiety when left alone, and Barbara went above and beyond to keep her comfortable. She stayed by Dolly’s side the entire time and took her everywhere with her—three walks a day, out to lunch, to our community pool, the dog park, shopping, and more. She was very mindful of our concerns about both minimizing stress for a senior dog and avoiding any barking that could disturb neighbors. When we returned, our home was spotless and thoughtfully cared for. She even washed the sheets and emptied the dishwasher, which was so appreciated after a difficult trip. It was also incredibly helpful that Barbara came several days in advance to meet us and Dolly, so by the time we left, Dolly already felt comfortable with her. Throughout our time away, I felt completely confident that Dolly was in excellent hands. I also deeply appreciated her daily updates, videos, and thoughtful questions. I highly recommend Barbara for any pet care needs. She treated Dolly with genuine love and attention, and I’m so grateful for the care she provided during such an important and emotional time. Thank you so much, Barbara. 🙏🏻
