“Kimberly did an awesome job taking care of Tiger. She had great communication with me. Thank you so much! I’ll definitely rebook whenever I travel again.”


2. Bethany
“Love, love, love Bethany !!! She’s so caring, honest, and truly cares about the well being of any pets. She really loves what she does and the animals adore her. I’m glad I found Bethany. She sends pics and text messages of my babies daily and makes sure that not only my pets are taken care of, but she also spent quality time with them and sent me lots of adorable videos. Great service, AMAZING Bethany !!! I would highly recommend her for any dog-sitting service you may require. ❤️”

“Frank and Gracie loved Janel! Janel took them on long walks and played frisbee with them. It meant so much that they were able to stay home where they were comfortable while we spent the day with our daughters and grandson!”

About: I've had pets all my life cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, Bunnies, and taken car of horses. I love animals and am not afraid of their messes. During the summer I have plenty of time to take care of pets though during the school year certain times of day I won't be available due to classes. I've learned to come at pets with the caution they need. I'm very friendly and always want to be sweet to pets but I can be tough if the situation calls for it to not let animals walk all over me. I love animals and like taking the time for their needs.

“When we are away we never worry when Glen is there. Our cats are picky but they have taken to Glen right away. We will be using again. Thank you !!!”


6. Abbrielle S.

“Last minute Abbrielle was able to take care of my kitty. I was relieved she was there to give him some pets while I was gone.”


7. Jessica K.

“This was my first time using Rover and Jessica was awesome! She responded within minutes and sent me updates with pictures. I've always used the local vet for dog boarding but will definitely be using Jessica again in the future. I highly recommend her!”


8. Erin S.
“Erin fostered our dog for us when we could no longer keep him due to severe life threatening allergies. They were so accommodating and attentative to his needs and kept him safe and happy until we could find him another home.”


9. Megan G.
“Megan is the most wonderful dog sitter I have ever had. She has taken care of my dog, a large German Shepherd, many times over the years. I always have such a good time on vacation knowing that my dog is happy, loved, and being well taken care of. Megan is natural dog person, and it's obvious that my dog is always excited to see her and to get to spend time with her. I have never trusted anyone as much as I trust Megan to watch my home and take care of my pet while I am away. She is a wonderful, responsible, caring individual, and I couldn't possibly recommend her more highly. If you're looking for an excellent trustworthy person to watch your home while you're away, Megan won't disappoint!”


10. Jamie M.
“Jamie is THE BEST! My Oliver and Abby can’t wait to go to “Aunt Jamie’s House” Jamie is caring, attentive and very loving to my babies. She snuggles, gives treats and overall spends a lot of quality time with them - they are always loved and happy. She is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ all the way!”


11. Candice Renee L.
About: I've been an animal lover since I can remember. I started caring for animals at a young age since my family always had our own pets and I felt a sense of pride in helping with them. When I got older I got a job at a big chain animal store, in the "Pet Care" department where I gained so much hands on experience and knowledge on the care of the most common pets. I'm definitely looking forward to meeting yours!! I work part time so my mornings & afternoons make it possible for me to swing by and care for a couple of cuties in need of a potty break and/or a snuggle, and anything else they would need. I will follow and respect all rules and instructions for the care of your pet(s). My priority is always the safety and wellness of your pet(s).


12. Alyssa P.
“Alyssa is the most conscientious, caring pet sitter I have ever used to take care of my 2 dogs and cats. She even fed my fish when I was gone for a week. She plays and nurtures my pets as if they were my children. Alyssa is completely trustworthy and responsible. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”


13. Em K.
“Em truly has the biggest heart. She sent updates and pictures of my fur babies every day which comforted my heart. My dad recently died & I wanted to go be with my mom & she treated me & my fur babies as if we were special family to her. I even came home to a clean house, clean bedding & my fur babies had smiles. It is hard leaving your babies with a stranger but she became a friend whom I can trust & who cares with her whole heart.”
