“Jordan was incredible and gave us complete comfort during our time away from our fur baby. She sent pictures often to let us see how happy and content he was. When we got home he was all brushed and looked and felt amazing. We will definitely request Jordan again to take care of him again when we are away.”


“super responsive and wonderful with our pup!”


“Stacie took great care of our three dogs! She was also tidy while staying in our home, and was a great communicator. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch the pups again, and would highly recommend her services.”

“Teresa was a wonderful house & pet sitter! Took very good care of our two cats and house, as well as giving our new puppy the love/attention/training she needed. She kept us well-informed while we were away, sharing pics and details about how it was all going. Thanks!!!”


About: Hi! My name is Aly and I’m 18. I love going on walks and playing with cats and dogs. As well as just lounging around. I am currently in school, so weekends and nights would work best until mid May. Over the summer I will be available at all times. My dogs were all crate trained, its always an easy way to keep them calm. I am used to multiple strong dogs pulling on walks

“Absolutely great sitter! Would definitely work with Carter again.”


“Amanda was AMAZING for our house sitting booking. She took such good care of our pitbull and cat. She really connects with animals and they absolutely love her. Our cat, who normally hates strangers and always hides, was curled up on her lap by the first night. We will definitely be booking her again!”


“Our dogs loved having Hayley to hang out with. She has a caring, calm and confident energy about her. We will definitely contact her again in the future to stay with the dogs”



“Danielle is a lovely spirit who truly loves dogs. Highly recommend her. Parker and Priscilla loved her, and I’m confident your pups will too!”


“Amy was amazing and kept our puppy safe, engaged, and thoroughly tuckered out! She updated us regularly on all of their adventures and was such a delight to work with.”


About: I have had a dog since I was born. My dog and I grew up together, learning together. Saying that I’ve had my fair share of experience being with pets. I have always had the responsibility to learn how to take care of them and their needs and we can’t forget having fun with toys and walks. Recently my dog sadly passed away and I would love nothing more being pets again. I currently work night shift during the week. So I’ll be available during the day after 7 am for playtime and walks and making sure they are fed and whatever they may need. I also have the weekends off Unfortunately I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have lots of grass for them to run around in and live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks. Since I’m used to having two dogs in the home, I can accommodate most specific needs.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was about 7. In my house hold we currently have three dogs and three cats. The cats all behave and I’ve taught the dogs various proper behaviors and tricks. I’ve helped watch new born puppies as well as older dogs and I’m very confident with taking care of any animal. I’m currently working a part-time along with college but I am completely free all day on Thursdays and Fridays to take care of your animals! Everyone handles their pets differently so I can just stick with the routine you currently have with your pets so as to not confuse them!

“Emily was very communicative and followed all of our instructions to the letter. She was also very warm and seemed really excited to hang out with our pups. I would absolutely hire her to take care of them again.”


About: I’ve had dogs all my life. Im working at a pet store. I’ve watched family and my neighbors dogs for years. I have trained puppies also and have experience of older dogs and their care. I also have experience with aggressive dogs so I can work around that. I’m currently working part time at a pet store. I am also in welding school for the mornings 5 days a week but I can work around that if needed early in the morning. I will always have dogs on a leash outside if no fenced in yard. I have experience with aggressive dogs so I will also keep away from other people and dogs if needed

“We found Christopher to be very reliable and caring while pet sitting our two Australian Shepherds, Winston and Ruby. Winston is on several meds for pancreatitis and is a challenge when he does not want to take his meds. Winston became ill and Chris phoned us right away. Chris was able to handle the situation in getting Winston out of pain in a matter of a few minutes. By the time we got back home, Winston was his old self again. Thank you, Chris! We would highly recommend Christopher for any pet sitting. He truly loves animals and has a caring heart.”


“I highly recommend Ashley for pet sitting! This past week was my first time away from my cat, Tawny, and first time using Rover. She was quick to respond and to set up a meet and greet. Tawny was very friendly towards her upon introduction, so I felt confident that I could leave her in Ashley's care. While away, she sent daily updates of a very happy looking kitty! I'll definitely be booking her again if I go out of town!”


“Tamara is great! Very reliable, and our dog loves her! Tam has stayed at our house on several occasions, and enabled us to get away for a few days knowing that Mocha would be well cared for.”



“Darcy was great! Highly recommend her.”


About: All throughout my childhood, we had pets. Whether it be cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, or turkeys. I was the one taking care of the livestock and my dog, which I had a specific routine for. I'd get up early to wash out the ducks pool, and their water dishes, feed and then water them! I would put my dog on a leash outside while I did that, and made sure I could see him on the leash. I now have a rabbit, which has a bit of a different routine than the chickens did. I started housesitting in middle school and did it all the way up until 2021, after I graduated. I only recently moved, and I'm trying to get into petsitting again! I'm working fulltime right now, and my hours are currently 7-4. I work weekdays, and will be available fully on weekends, although I'm able to walk dogs before and after work, and even housesit throughout the week! While pet sitting/housesitting, I always have routines and make sure that they happen! I had routines with my chickens, and thoroughly followed that. I worked at a daycare that had a rabbit, and I would take him home on the weekends, and I had a specific routine for him as well. I will communicate it thoroughly and send photos whenever depending if you'd prefer that or not!

20. Kai C.
“Kai watched my animals while I was on vacation a few years! He walked our four dogs and gave them food and water every day. He would constantly communicate with us about our pets and how they were doing. We also had chickens that he would take care of as well, feeding them, cleaning their water dish, and giving them their water. He sent us lots of photos during this time! Recently, he took care of our two guinea pigs while we were unable to, and sent us plenty of photos of them! Kai is one of the best petsitters, if not the best, that we have ever had!”
