“Mary did an amazing job making sure my dogs got all of their medications on time. I really appreciated the regular updates and adorable pictures while I was away. Highly recommend!”

“This is our second time with Melanie! We had a 14 day vacation and she took care of our fur babies in our home so both our dogs and we felt comfortable on the lengthy time apart. She is responsive and gives updates throughout the time with our pets. Came home to a surprise Santa photo with the dogs which was super cute! She is respectful of our home and we trust her. Thank you again Melanie! Astro and Alani will look forward to our next planned vacation without them!”

“I recommend Dani to take care of your fur babies, I was very nervous leaving my fur baby and she took such good care of him as if he was her own. We will definitely use her again.”


“Amanda did an excellent job caring for my big guy while I was away for a few nights out of town. Thorough in every way and very easy to communicate with. I truly appreciated her above and beyond approach and felt totally comfortable that my dog and home were in great hands. Will book again!”

“Kevin is a super nice guy. I am so glad we have him in our dogs lives and ours. I will take him anytime. He did a great job with our pups. They seem very happy.”

“Frances stayed in my home and took care of my fur baby Samson while I was traveling for work overseas. She took such good care of my baby, sending me updates throughout the day with thorough details and photos. My Sammy requires some special care with medicine and food and she was certain to do everything perfectly and on his regular schedule. She really made my travel less stressful because I was never worried about Sammy. She really cared for him and loved him like he was her own. She also took great care of my home. I will definitely be using Frances again in the future and I would highly recommend her for taking care of your fur babies and an in home stay.”

“Cassidy really helped us out last minute when other plans for a sitter fell through. The pups immediately liked her when she came for the initial meet and greet. She asked really good questions regarding their care and routines and sent frequent updates with pictures. We definitely recommend her and will be using her again.”

“Jaden quickly won over both our doggos and cats. He even managed to get our super duper scaredy cat to like him! He diligently provided the additional care we requested like watering plants, taking them for walks, and playing with their favorite toys. We also came home to a well kept home. We will be using him again and highly recommend.”

About: I have taken care of many animals through out my life and i’ve had them ever since I was 5 so I am confident in knowing how to take care of someone else’s pets and the value of how important it is. I have many skills and experience with animals. I love being an asset to my community and love to make a difference I am currently in school for Vet Tech through YTI and I am remote, so I have plenty of time to take care of lovely animals, I work at a vet three days a week as a vet assistant! I have 5 dogs and 3 cats but they are very friendly and would love to play with a new furry friend, my pets are very spoiled so other pets will get the very same treatment! I love taking dogs for walks and enjoy playing with animals and giving them the attention they desire. I will also travel if your fur baby needs a sitter. I have a trail behind my house in the woods where my dogs love to walk, and i’m sure your dog would too! I love playing with cats, they are lovely purring friends. I don’t cage my dogs but if your fur baby needs crated I already have crates.
“Adam is very conscientious and pleasant. We appreciated that he did a meet and greet plus second visit. He asked many good questions about caring for Maggie. When Maggie was sad and hesitant with Adam after we left, he sought suggestions from us. With Adam’s patience and approach, they were quickly friends. He spent a lot of time with her. Also, he was willing to bring in mail and feed fish. We returned to a spotless house. We would definitely use Adam again.”

“Luke did a great job watching Duke for us when we went out of state for a wedding. Nothing unexpected happened, but he was very communicative and I"m sure we would have known immediately if something did happen. Thank you!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for and grooming dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My grooming experience includes bathing, brushing, and nail trims, and I always take a calm, patient approach—especially with nervous or sensitive dogs. I’m confident in reading canine body language and stress signals to ensure each dog feels safe and comfortable. Through Rover, I’ve provided reliable care for many different dogs, tailoring my approach to each pet’s routine and personality. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, crate routines, and administering medication when needed. I treat every dog like my own and focus on creating a safe, positive, and stress-free experience while their owners are away. I’m home most of the day, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care, including weekends. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or a client’s home. I provide reliable feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while keeping a calm, safe environment. I’m gentle and patient, especially with nervous pets, and I always monitor behavior and stress levels. I treat every pet like my own and provide updates and photos for peace of mind
About: Had pets my whole life. I walk all the time and know where to take them and have an SUV with enough room to fit them in. Have 2 children who adore all animals. I have a full time job, Tuesday through Saturday, but I’m usually home around 2-4 pm. I’m available every evening and can stop to let them out during the day because of my job flexibility. I love both ends of the spectrum. I love being active and taking dogs for walk/runs. I also love relaxing and cuddling with them and getting to know what their preferences. Will follow all strict diet rules and keep a very clean house to avoid unwanted eating restrictions.
