Another wonderful job by Amanda! Our elder dog Chelsea was getting over not feeling well and Amanda cared for her like she was her own. She gave lots of feedback and pics. Showered our Chelsea Girl with attention. Will book again!

About: I have had many different kinds of animals my whole life. From reptiles, dogs, cats and birds. I love animals more than people. I know a lot about dog training also and can administer meds. I am very flexible and have a pretty open schedule. I can do daily check ins or even every few days. Whatever you need I can make happen I will care for the animal in your home. I can play, walk, clean, feed, give meds and am open to any care you may need.

We had Sonnie of the duo stay at our house with our pups and we’ve never come back from vacation before and had the dogs been so relaxed. Sonnie did such a phenomenal job caring for our animals and our house. We felt incredibly comfortable leaving them in Sonnie’s care after two pre-vacation visits where our pets simply could not get enough of Sonnie. Sonnie showed kindness and understanding, sent us daily updates and pictures. I would definitely hire Sonnie again when we go away or just to let the pups out or walk them when we have a long day away. Thanks so much Sonnie!

Trisha graciously watched my 2 older dogs at the last minute in my home. She was an amazing houseguest, and was incredible with my visually impaired dog who requires various daily medications. My other grumpy dog took to Trisha immediately, which is remarkable as he can be stingy with his affection. Thank you Trisha and we all look forward to seeing you again soon.❤️

Melanie and Anthony are absolute gems as pet sitters and house guests. They are so kind and caring- both towards animals and towards us humans - taking great care of all of us during their stay. They sent lovely photos of our pets being adored and living their best lives in our absence and they took great care to be respectful about my needs as a person with Celiac disease, even leaving extra GF staples for me and cleaning the house! They are truly great humans and we feel so lucky to have found them. Booking them again ASAP!!

Staci is wonderful. We just did a trial run for a longer trip and it worked out great! We have three dogs, one of whom is very difficult and she really was able to accommodate and work through his quirks. We also felt relaxed and appreciated her photos and updates.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for 8+ years. My experience includes puppies, full grown dogs, elderly dogs, kittens, & full grown cats. I also have experience in making sure they receive any medications they may need to take. I work remotely, so I can/will be at the house all day, making sure your fur babies are not alone for hours on end and getting plenty of love and attention. I am a very clean house guest. I clean up after myself as well as the animals and respect any boundaries the homeowner may put in place. I make sure to clean the kitchen & bathroom before I leave and will even wash/change the sheets on the bed if requested. ***Please note that I require a meet & greet with you and your pet(s) prior to the care starting***

Christi is an unbelievable person and a perfect fit for out 2 Labs. They hit it off right away and our girls fell in love with her. They are 8 years old and have never been alone at night. We did not need to be concerned because they were so good together! They even slept together with her in the bed! She had to give them a few supplements that we add to our food and Christi remembered the correct supplements for each dog from our weeks earlier conversation. Highly recommend, just not when we need her. LOL

About: Hi, I’m Lyric! I’ve had animals my entire life and caring for them has always been a central part of who I am. I have a background in pre-veterinary sciences and currently work as an equine hoof care practitioner, so animal health, behavior, and safety are always top priorities for me. I’m comfortable working with pets of many species, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I genuinely enjoy providing attentive care, enrichment, and exercise tailored to each individual animal. I have hands-on experience with dogs, horses, reptiles, birds, and small pets, and I’m very comfortable in multi-pet households. I’m also experienced with special-needs pets. My education and professional background have prepared me for medication administration and careful monitoring, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions and routines. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for — and to make you feel confident while you’re away. I’m always happy to answer questions and tailor care to your pet’s specific needs. I work from home full-time, which allows me to take short breaks throughout the day for check-ins, walks, and playtime with your pets. Every pet’s routine is unique, so let’s chat to see how my schedule can best fit your pet’s needs! I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet I care for. In your home, I follow your routines, monitor pets closely, and ensure all interactions, walks, and playtime are safe and stress-free. For pets in my home, I maintain a clean, secure, and comfortable space with supervised interaction and plenty of enrichment. I’m experienced with dogs, cats, small pets, reptiles, and special-needs animals, and I always take care to follow any medication or care instructions exactly as provided.

There are not enough stars to fully convey our feelings of how we felt leaving our Newfoundland, Shih Tzu, chickens and fish with people we had only just met. Emma and Trent were exactly how they described themselves in their Rover Profile. Reagan immediately found Trent’s lap and Peaches was xheckinf out Emma for treats.❤️ Peaches and Reagan were treated exactly how we wanted them to be treated. Even though we couldn’t include the fact we had chickens (and fish) in our Rover profile, Emma and Trent were very receptive to including them in their daily care routines. We communicated on a regular basis using our Group Chat and Emma & Trent were kind enough to send some great pix of the “girls”. I’m sure their time with the girls and staying at our home will be as memorable for them as it was for us. Two days into our trip/their stay, they were hit with a blizzard that dropped 24” of snow. Although our home is beautiful when it snows, they were snowed in. It took 2 days before we could get them shoveled out. They had to clear a pathway for the dogs to go out along with a few other areas. And as if that wasn’t enough, one of the biggest trees in our yard fell onto the chicken coops outdoor area and destroyed it along with the chain link fence. They said they heard a tremendous sound and then they saw it. It was unbelievable. We were able to get my son to check it out to ensure it was secured from predators and that none of the chickens were hurt. Thank goodness was everyone was fine. We highly recommend Emma and Trent to care for your pets and your home and will definitely use their services again. Thank you both!

Melissa is simply amazing. We have re-booked her over 10 times for home visits and home sitting our pet, Scott. We all were going on an international trip of ~10 days and we were worried since this was the first time we using someone’s services to stay at home and take care of Scott. Punctuality is Melissa’s virtue and Scott was absolutely comfortable with her. All those 10 days, we were very peaceful and Melissa ensured, with pictures and videos of Scott, that we were always in touch! A very big shout out to Melissa for a fantastic service!

About: I am an experienced dog walker, and pet owner. I was a Rover walker and dog care friend from 2017 to 2019. After taking time off to attend graduate school, and a pandemic, I am happy to continue taking care of human's best friends again. I've taken care all kinds of dogs, from Siberian Huskies, to bulldogs, to cocker spaniels, beagles, and the young and then the young at heart. My own family's dog is a five-year-old English Bulldog/Beagle mix, Rooney (pictured here as a pup). I currently work full time from home. I love staying active and have a car for easy transportation. If you are interested in doggy-day care, I prefer you request it at least 24 hours in advance. Especially for those circumstances, I prefer to have a meet and greet with you and your dog if possible, to see if we are good fits for each other. Thank you for choosing me to care for your best friend. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am home most of the time because I work virtually. As long as I can schedule it beforehand, I can drive to you for walkings. I currently do not board, but in your home I will treat it with the utmost respect as I would my own. I always oblige to my client's wishes in how their dog plays a part in their home.

About: I am a full time employee in an assisted living. I had my sweet dachshund for 17 years, and caring for her through her senior years taught me how to care and keep senior pets happy. Now I have a happy, energetic bernedoodle and two adorable bunnies at my parents house and always miss now that I am away. I I have been around both small and large dogs all of my life. Growing up I constantly house sat, fed and watered pets while my neighbors were away for pocket money. I look forward to becoming your dog’s new favorite sitter! I have work till 5pm and then the rest of the day I have time to take care of your pets. When I lived with my pets I would let them out in the yard in the mornings and as soon as I would get home. I made sure to give them attention and affection everyday. I have dealt with senior dogs and am well aware of their limits. It is my promise that I will make any dog of any age as comfortable and as happy as possible.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was a kid, specially dogs, so I know they have nothing to share but love and fun. Your furry loved ones will have a great time with us! I usually work Monday to Thursday. Although, my wife is always home; she loves animals more than she loves me lol, so your pup would get plenty on love from us. We don’t sit two doggies at the same time unless they already know each other. Safety comes always first. We have plenty of calm and safe green areas for long walks and a dogs park that is fenced.

Amanda was great with our kitties while we were away on vacation! She sent lots of updates with photos/videos and was very respectful of our space. Amanda went above and beyond during meal times as our kitties need to be separated and can be picky eaters. I would highly recommend Amanda for any of your pet care needs!

Ruby was absolutely amazing with our puppy Ivy! 🐶💛 She watched her for the day in our apartment and made us feel so comfortable from the start. Ivy is still a young pup with lots of energy, and Ruby was so patient, attentive, and loving with her. We got updates throughout the day, which gave us such peace of mind. Ivy was happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great time! Our place was just as we left it too, which we really appreciated. We would 100% trust Ruby to watch Ivy again—she treated her like her own. Highly recommend.
