About: While I may be new to Rover, I'm definitely not new to caring for animals. I've been around pets my entire life and truly consider them part of the family. I currently have two beloved fur babies of my own, and I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust to care for your pets when you can't be there. Whether it's a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, I'll treat your pets like my own-with patience, love and attention to their unique needs and routines. I am reliable, communicative, and committed to keeping your pets happy, healthy and safe while you're away! Let's set up a meet-and-greet-I'd love to get to know you and your furry family! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and it is something I prioritize. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent and timely care. Pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. For walks, I make sure your pet is secured-checking collars, harnesses, and leashes. I stay alert to our surroundings to avoid any stressful or unsafe situations. Your pet will get my full attention!

“As soon as my dogs met Amber, they were comfortable with her. My Maine coon cat, that is very particular hung by her enjoying continual petting. The photos of our dogs that she sent to us while she had them at her place showed how comfortable they were. I highly recommend Amber. Animals can sense her connection with them.”


“We have used Candice 3 times now, and soon a 4th. She is amazing, loving, our dog just walks right in like he's at home. It's a great feeling to not have to worry about our pet while we are away, and not have to deal with any kennel cough or other maladies upon return! Highly recommend.”



“Great home for a dog! Family of dog lovers, and other dogs to play with in the house too. Easy communication, and great photo and video updates while we were away. We will definitely bring our dog back to Tania's house next time we need a sitter.”


“The communication, photos, and care have been great. We can trust that our dogs will come home happy, which is especially important for our older anxious girl. I’m pretty sure our girls are just as happy and comfortable at their house as they are ours .”


“Visiting town and needed a last minute sitter. Amanda was excellent and Felix had the best time. Got cute photo updates the whole time. Would definitely book with her again!”


“Kelsey was absolutely amazing! She is incredibly welcoming, and friendly. My senior dog had the BEST weekend in her care, definitely coming back!”


“Alex and Martha are great! Communication is excellent. They spent a lot of time with our dog and she had a blast playing with their dog. We were worried about leaving her with a sitter for the first time but we had absolutely no issues at all. Will definitely use them again for our next trip!”


“Nathan was great with Remy and she loved staying with him. He was a great communicator, sending videos and photos. I highly recommend him and will be booking him again!”


“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter Javiera! She was incredibly attentive and kept us updated throughout our vacation with regular messages and adorable pictures of our pup.

“Dana is awesome! Our pup loves spending time with her while we love knowing she is taken care of! Dana is quick to respond, flexible, and communicates well!”


“Angelee is fantastic! She did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Charlie while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Because Charlie is diabetic and requires daily insulin shots we are always concerned about leaving him. But Angelee was great about sending us bright and happy messages “from Charlie” as well as multiple photos every day to reassure us he was doing well. Knowing he was in good hands was such a relief and made our vacation much more relaxing and enjoyable. We are so glad we found her!”

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Guadalupe is a Dog-Sitting Superstar! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Guadalupe! She took care of my fur baby, ChiLo, for the entire weekend, and I am beyond impressed with the love, attention, and care she gave him. From the moment we dropped ChiLo off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in the best hands possible. Guadalupe treated ChiLo like family—he wasn’t just being watched, he was being loved. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the weekend, which totally made my day every time. I could see how happy and comfortable he was in every picture—tail wagging, belly up, completely relaxed! When I picked him up, ChiLo was calm, clean, and clearly had an amazing time. It honestly felt like he had been on his own little vacation! Guadalupe went above and beyond, and it showed in every detail. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, kind, attentive, and genuinely loves animals, look no further. Guadalupe is a rare gem, and ChiLo and I are so lucky to have found her. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you, Guadalupe! 💛🐶

Ava did a phenomenal job caring for my two pups, Trooper & Shaiya. We scheduled a meet and greet the evening before boarding and Ava kindly came to my residence to meet the dogs and ensure everything would work well with her dog as well. My dogs are young (8 and 6 months), and have a lot of play energy. Ava did a great job caring for them and provided me with pictures/videos along the way. Given her success with this challenge, I'm highly confident she will take excellent care of your dog as well! 10/10 recommend!

We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter Javiera! She was incredibly attentive and kept us updated throughout our vacation with regular messages and adorable pictures of our pup. It truly put our minds at ease knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We’ll definitely be using Javiera again, highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!

Virginia was great to work with! It was the first time that Leo, our dog, spent a night away from home, and Virginia was very kind and responsive to his needs. Leo is an energetic working breed dog, and she made sure he had a lot of fun and exercise. She communicated with us frequently and sent us lots of updates and pictures, which we appreciated and eased any worries we had. We could tell that Leo enjoyed his time with Virginia!
