Alex did a great job taking care of our Marlee! We loved the multiple daily updates with pictures. He was very respectful of our home and left it in pristine condition as well as bringing in packages and checking our mail. We know Marlee had a great time with Alex while we were away. Highly recommend him and will definitely use him again.

About: My life has been defined by a deep connection to animals, from growing up in a multi-pet household of dogs and cats to exploring the intricate world of aquarium keeping. This lifelong passion eventually evolved into a professional focus; I am currently a graduate student in Psychology and am personally training my own service dog, Disco. My experience goes beyond basic pet sitting; I understand canine behavior, the importance of positive reinforcement, and the necessity of a calm, structured environment. Whether I’m managing a high-energy dog, a senior pet with a strict medication schedule, or even a delicate aquatic setup, I bring a researcher's attention to detail and a lifelong lover's heart to every home. I’ve spent years caring for the pets of friends and family, and I look forward to providing that same expert, reliable care for your companions. Pet care is the foundation of my daily life. As a service dog handler, I live and breathe animal behavior and routine. My day is built around structured walks, training reinforcement, and clear communication. While I balance my graduate studies and work, my school breaks are dedicated to providing high-quality, attentive care for your pets. Because I am used to the responsibility of a working dog, I bring that same level of discipline and reliability to your pet’s schedule, ensuring they feel secure and cared for in a low-stress, organized environment. I provide a calm, supervised environment where your pet’s safety is the top priority. I am accompanied by my service dog, Disco, who is expertly trained to be neutral and respectful of other animals' space. This often provides a wonderful, stabilizing social environment for the pets I watch. I am meticulous about feeding and exercise schedules, and I am particularly mindful of safety—for example, avoiding noon-day heat to protect paws and prevent overheating. Whether we are in my home or yours, I maintain a 'safety-first' mentality, ensuring all environments are secure and all interactions are positive.

She took care of our fur babies and went the extra mile for them. I enjoyed that she showed how much she cares about doing a good job not just in general, but for the animals as well. Highly recommend

She was amazing! She sent me pictures and made sure to let me know what was going on when I asked. She was also very understanding when I couldn’t answer sometimes due to being in a no phone zone. She left my apartment how I left with I deeply appreciated! Best sitter I’ve ever had, and I will definitely be booking with her again!

This was our first time using Corina and she was great! Fantastic communication daily. She sent pics of our pets every morning and every evening. She was very respectful of our home. It is obvious that our pets were well cared for and happy. We have already booked her for another three dates. She is now our go to sitter!

About: I have taken care of dogs for quite some time now. I am more than willing to feed, walk, and make sure your pets are comfortable. I work part time so I am available majority of the day. I have more than enough time to spend with your pets and making sure they’re taken care of. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a turtle that I take care of. I crate my 2 dogs at night so I am more than willing to do that with your pets if necessary.

Katie is amazing!!! We got our dachshund puppy, Opie, in February. Although he is as cute as can be and very friendly, he is a handful right now! And, in this small amount of time, we have not been able to get him as comfortable being alone or in his crate as much as we would like. He also was too young to be boarded with his brother (7 year old dachshund). We needed to go away for a few days for our wedding, and decided to try house sitting through rover for the first time. We found Katie, and I am so happy we did!! She was very patient and kind. She was at the house almost the entire time with Opie and made him feel so comfortable. She was flexible with letting Opie cuddle in the bed overnight, and made him feel safe when he was scared of a loud storm!! She was great at communicating and sharing pictures which we appreciated. Also, our home looked exactly as it did when we left. We could actually barely tell she was even there haha! I HIGHLY recommend her services!! She has the sweetest heart and we will definitely be reaching out again.

We were so nervous about leaving our dog with a stranger. Epiphany was so professional and came and met our dog beforehand to calm our nerves. She came into our house and immediately sat on the floor, loving on our dog. She was fantastic. Our dog had a small bruise on his ear. She was so attentive it was monumentally better when we returned. She was flexible, calm, attentive and professional. Your pets will be in great hands!!!

Nichole put at complete ease when we left our pups to go out of town. She was kind, caring, and incredibly responsive. Our dogs were snuggled up within a few days which speaks wonders - they barely cuddle with us! We received updates and photos so we knew the whole time we were gone they were being cared for and loved.

She did so good with both of my dogs! She sent pictures everyday and kept me updated with them throughout the day. She walked them, took them to the park and even stayed the night with them. If you are looking for someone to communicate with you and love on your dogs like her own I would highly recommend her.

About: Hi there. I am a dog mom, and have experience with all types of pets and their care. I communicate with my clients with daily update and make sure to add a few pictures. I know being away from your babies is hard, and pictures are the next best thing. I love going on adventures, and tug a war is my favorite. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I work part time and am available to set my schedule and work around anything really. I am also off weekend. This gives me alot of freedom and flexibility to work with your schedule and your pet needs. I would keep your fur baby company while you are away. Keeping them as active as possible. Also taking details notes about rules, diet, allergies and feeding schedules.

About: I just recently dog sat at a family friends house for a weekend, and I played with her, went outside with her and just made sure she felt loved. She also loves to cuddle, so we cuddled on the couch together. I have open availability right now, as I am a recent college graduate and will have plenty of time to play with and take care of your pet(s)! I am able to play with your pet, and I can give them their food or medication they may need. I can also take them on walks within the area to give them some exercise!

About: I am a nature lover! I enjoy taking my dog, Rosemary, on exciting hikes and engaging adventures. We love visiting the river, the dog park, many nature trails around town, and quality play time at home. I also love cuddling up with my cat, Bee. I have taken care of my own animals my entire life. From dogs & cats to birds to snakes, the list of animals I’ve had under my care goes on. Many of my pets have required medicine in their old age, so I am very comfortable administering medicine to an animal. I have dog-sat as well as house-sat on multiple occasions. One thing unique to me is my want for the animals to have as much freedom as possible. I work from home and decide my own schedule so I have a lot of flexibility in how I want to shape my day. This makes it so convenient for taking care of fur babies! We have a fenced yard that is perfect for a short zoomie sesh! Plus we have a gated dog park in our community that we frequent.

Kira did a fantastic job caring for Margo while we were away. When I arrived back home the house was clean and Margo was happy. She had fresh water and litter had been taken care of. I would recommend Kira to take care of your pets and would use her again in the future!
