About: I make sure to match with the dog’s energy, depending on whether they want a walk, play, or just a steady presence. I provide updates with photos and videos so that you can see how your baby is actually doing. I’ll make sure to keep their tails wagging while their favorite human is away (and hopefully become their second favorite)! There is always at least a person in the house to take care of the pets, with the exception of a few hours if we go out together on evenings or weekends. I am personally available almost all day everyday to keep your dogs comfortable. As my dog and cat’s favorite human, I always make sure they are doing well and dedicated daily play time to each of them individually. I have a fenced background so the dogs can play outside as long as they want to. If I go to your house, I will also play with them in addition to feeding, taking them to potty, etc. I treat my pets as my babies, and will make sure your babies are also taken care of when you are not around.
“Out of all the cat sitters I have tried (on or off Rover), Leelay stands above all with her genuine love for any cats. I have two cats who each have different views when it comes to a stranger caring for them. Leelay took her time to understand and bond with each of them in a way where I believe my cats forgot about my disappearance. When I came back home, my cats acted like nothing had happened which we all know is probably the best scenario for fidgety cats. Thank you Leelay for all you have done!!”


“Jackie was terrific to work with! She was very responsive and flexible. My pup is shy but Jackie was patient and calm with her. This was my first experience with Rover and all went very well! I look forward to working with Jackie in the future.”

“Scheduled a meet and greet with Rachel to make sure she was comfortable with our dog and vice versa they hit it off great! She was able to stop by in a pinch and was very knowledgeable. Looking forward to booking her in the future!”

“Kayla has been amazing with my dogs Berkeley and Baxter! She’s extremely reliable and communicative. She does recurring drop-in visits for me weekly since I need to be in the office and the dogs always look like they’re having a blast hanging with her :)”

“Alison is a great choice for a sitter for your furry loved ones! When she looks after my cats and is responsible and communicative. From the pictures, I can see the kitties are very happy to have her!”

“I recently had Mackenzie care for my four cats over a 6-day period, and I couldn't be more impressed. She went above and beyond in every way: Reliability & Responsibility: Mackenzie stayed on top of all the essentials; fresh food and water daily, spotless litter boxes, and consistent care throughout her visits. Communication & Peace of Mind: What really set her apart was the amazing pictures she sent! Getting regular updates with photos of my cats playing, napping, and enjoying themselves made the time away so much easier. It's clear she genuinely cares about keeping pet parents informed and reassured. Genuine Affection: Beyond the basics, Mackenzie gave my cats attention and affection. She played with them, petted them, and treated them like they were her own. Overall Mackenzie is exactly what you want in a pet sitter: responsible, caring, communicative, and trustworthy. My four cats are already looking forward to her next visit, and so am I! I will absolutely be booking Mackenzie again. If you're looking for someone to care for your cats with professionalism and genuine love, she's your person.”

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve been the reliable friend people turn to when they’re away. Some of the routines look like: stopping in to feed pets, provide fresh water, clean up, and offer enrichment and play, and companionship so they feel comfortable and not alone. I also have experience house sitting and staying overnight for up to four nights, making sure pets feel safe, settled, and cared for in their own environment. I’ve been around animals since I was about 10 years old, including golden retrievers, labs, and cats, and I often ask to say hello when I see a furry friend out and about. I welcome different temperaments and adjust myself to meet them where they’re comfortable. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and aim to provide calm, attentive, and loving care so fur babies feel secure, seen, and cared for while their best friend is away. I am available all days of the week, between 9:00 am-6:00 pm, can provide overnight care, please send me a message. (Sun, Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sat) The goal is calm, consistency, and reading pet cues. 1. Follow their routine exactly Pets feel safest with predictability. Feed at the same times Use the same food amounts and bowls Keep walks/playtime similar to what they’re used to Even small changes can make sensitive pets anxious. 2. Do a careful first check-in When I arrive: I look for water level, food, accidents, or damage I observe their behavior (hiding, excited, nervous, clingy) I let them come to me rather than forcing interaction. 3. I arrive with a calm presence Many pets don’t need constant stimulation, they need steady companionship. I prefer to sit quietly near them, talk softly and let shy pets approach me on their terms 4. Exercise + enrichment (tailored to each pet) Dogs: walks, sniff time, fetch (if they enjoy it) Cats: wand toys, gentle play, window time I may suggest to keep sessions short if they get overstimulated 5. I like to help keep the home clean and safe by scooping litter boxes daily (sometimes twice per day), pick up wrappers or food items immediately, wipe paws if needed after walks, and keep doors locked and secure at all times 6. Respect their boundaries This is a big one for trust: I try not to force picking up or petting and watch for signs like tail flicking, hiding, freezing, or overstimulation. I let them decompress alone if needed. 7. I love the saying, “Leave things better than you found them” My fur friends owners say they appreciate: Clean bowls and litter areas, a tidy feeding/walking area, and the notes about how they did during the visit 8. I communicate clearly Send updates like: “Fed, walked, and doing well,” Photos (if allowed) and any changes in behavior or appetite
“Riley was wonderful with Sushi. She followed all my care instructions, respected my cat's need for space (which is not a small ask), and sent daily updates so I always knew how things were going. I was traveling overseas in a different time zone and felt at ease the whole time. Sushi was happy and well taken care of when I got home. Highly recommend Riley for cat parents!”

“This was our second time having Michelle sit for our dog Magni and once again we were in awe of how amazing she was with him! She sent us updates every single day and detailed reports of how walks went. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and enjoys taking excellent care of them! Will definitely be booking with Michelle again in the future! She is a great choice for your fur babies!”

About: I am loving and someone you can trust. I do my best to understand them and meet their needs. I love them all as if they were my own babies. I help them take them out and about and meet their needs. If they are happy with me, I will be happy too. Rest assured. My priority is their safety and happiness. I take care of everything about them myself. I don't let them walk in places I don't find safe. I take them home safely and hand them over to their family.
About: What sets me apart is my attention to detail and consistency. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. I’ve always enjoyed being around dogs and have a real appreciation for their energy and personalities. I don’t currently have pets of my own, which allows me to fully focus on giving attentive, one-on-one care during each visit. I’m comfortable working with a range of dogs, from playful and energetic to more relaxed, and I enjoy making sure they get the activity, structure, and attention they need. I work remotely from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent, reliable pet care throughout the day. I’m generally most available for walks and check-ins in the afternoons and early evenings during the workweek. I can also accommodate weekends when needed, especially for recurring clients or advance requests. I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality, and I follow all instructions closely to ensure consistent and safe care. During visits, I focus on keeping pets engaged, well-exercised, and cared for, while also respecting the client’s home and keeping things clean and secure. I’m observant of any changes in behavior and will communicate updates regularly for peace of mind. I have recently gained valuable experience caring for high-energy puppies and understand the importance of structure, exercise, and attention.
“Junbo was reliable, professional, and very attentive while taking care of my cat. She clearly paid close attention to my cat’s needs and even noticed that her nails needed trimming, which she kindly took care of. I really appreciated the extra care and thoughtfulness she showed. It gave me peace of mind knowing my cat was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Junbo to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible pet sitter.”

“Kailyn was amazing, she was prompt and took great care of my two cats by feeding them and keeping them entertained. She was also a great communicator and I felt at ease.”

About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life and have experience taking care of pets of all ages. Animals bring me so much happiness. Since I cannot have a pet of my own while in college, I will give all my love and attention to your pets to provide excellent care. As a college student on summer break, I will have plenty of time to spend with your pets. Im available all weekdays and most weekends, I can stop by whatever time is best for your furry friend! I will be unable to house your dog overnight in my home, but I am more than willing to stay extended periods with your pets if needed.

Toki was so so wonderful with our 3 month puppy! He played with him so well that puppy fell asleep for 3 hrs once Toki left - happy happy puppy! Toki was very respectful in our house, and took beautiful pics of puppy both times he came. We are excited to work with Toki again!

Julia came to visit my pup for the evening. I was so sad to leave him home after a long day at work and then an evening g outing, but having Julia stop by made all the difference. He was so happy to tell me about his new friend vs being sad and depressed for endless hours home alone. Julia did a great job providing photos and updates of their time together too, we will definitely book her again.

Sherry is awesome. We just moved from out of state and have a pretty old dog not used to this climate. He was scared when we left him, and we have always boarded him in the past so he was quite difficult. Sherry was patient, and over 2-3 DAYS of feeding a growling, snapping dog she saw kobe turn back into the cool old dog he normally is. I can’t say enough how easy and patient she has been with a tough situation.
