“Brian took care of my pup super last minute and did such a great job! He spent so much time with her and I got the cutest updates. Really went above and beyond!”

About: I was so lucky to grow up with a sweet little Westie named Kimchi! I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. As soon as I was old enough, I was walking neighbor's dogs, and checking on their cats while they were away! When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs, I will dedicate my time to loving them just as you would! I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and needs, including puppies who are still learning routines and senior pets who may require a slower pace or extra care. I’m patient, reliable, and good at reading animal behavior, which helps me keep pets calm, safe, and comfortable. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions like medication schedules, feeding routines, or training consistency so your pet stays on track while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I am currently home full time. This allows me to accommodate feeding times, litter box care, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, and anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable.
“Ashley was incredible with my little farm of animals. She sent photos, was very communicative, and most importantly my pets loved her. Definitely now have my go too sitter & couldn’t recommend her more. 5/5 all day.”

“Cassie went above and beyond with our pets. She was very flexible and reliable and we will definitely use her to watch our precious babies in the future!! Don’t hesitate to book her to watch your fur babies!”

“Amy took such great care of our senior cat! She handled his medication injections well and clearly cared about his well being, I felt so comfortable knowing he was in good hands while we were away. Would recommend her to anyone - we will definitely book again!!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our cat. Lillian was communicative, prompt, thorough, and most importantly kind and playful with our cat. We will for sure be using her again in the future!”

About: Enthusiastic dog dad who has been caring for animals large and small for friends and professionally since I was 15. Very conscientious and willing to tailor care to the individual. Whether I am watching a a 6 month old pup or a 12 year old senior, I will ensure they enjoy their stay. I am a young professional who works from home Monday through Friday. I exercise and give potty breaks as often as weather permits with no more than 4-5 hrs between. I am also happy to take leashed walks and or obedience train outside of business hours and weekends upon request. My home has a brand new secure privacy fence that stays locked with nice size yard. I do not leave dogs outside while I am away and have security/dog monitoring cameras. Your dog will stay in my home dog area and will only be crated if necessary. Lots of windows and separated so there is no access to the front door if you have one that likes to bolt. A safe environment for my dog and yours is my number one priority!
“Ryn was awesome and left photos, comments and details every day while we were out of town for a week on a family vacation! She was very attentive and took great care of our pups.”

About: I was a zookeeper for about 4 years and have worked in several vet clinics over the years. I have extensive experience caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. Animals have always been my passion and I love caring for them. I have no problem cleaning up or giving medication if that is what is needed! I look forward to meeting your pets! My full time job allows me to create my own schedule so I can be flexible with timing to ensure your pet gets the best care while you are gone! My day job is a Realtor. This allows me to create my on schedule and work from just about anywhere. This gives me flexibility to ensure your pet receives the best care possible while you are away. Being able to stay in the clients home can help the pet feel more relaxed and comfortable while their owner is gone. Every pet is different along with their needs. Its important to me to get a good understanding of what your pet needs and providing that to the best of my ability!

About: I've had pets of all kinds my entire life--from cats and dogs to fish and hamsters! As an adult, I've been lucky enough to call 2 cats and a dog a part of my family. I love taking dogs on walks and to the dog park to socialize and play and I also enjoy staying home with cats and giving them all the pets and playtime they want. I've done occasional pet sitting over the years, and would love to spend more time with more furry friends:) I have experience with puppies and kittens as well as senior animals and am able to administer pills or medicine. I work from home and am a stay at home mom of a toddler who is very comfortable and gentle with both cats and dogs. I have a lot of freedom to do check ins or walks throughout the day and early evening. I'm happy to check in on your fur babies in your home or take them out on walks. I can feed, play with and spend time with them based on their needs!
About: I've had extensive experience with all sorts of critters through my years working and volunteering with my home towns local humane society, animal shelter and personal pets. I'm open to cleaning and administering medication as needed. I'm not currently employed full time and I have very flexible hours, so I can have almost full open availability during the mornings into the early evenings. I intend to follow the clients directions to the letter as each pet has their own peculiarities and preferences. My goal is to make the experience as hassle and stress free as possible for pet and parent.
“They treated my boy so well! Worked great with a big puppy, gave him all the loves and even some walks, and were able to roll with anything and make sure Bru is taken care of! I would love to have them any time!”

Merry Oaks pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ian was an amazing pet sitter for my dog and cat! He came by several times throughout the week and provided thorough notes and photos of his visits. His attention to detail and love on my pets was a huge relief since I don’t usually have new people come by the house. Also, Ian’s communication was fast and friendly. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for help with their pets!

Highly recommend! She has been taking care of my fur baby for several months. She is reliable and I know my fur baby is in great hands. She sends pictures every drop in. She even drove in the snow/ice to watch after my fur baby. 10/10!! Even with my hectic schedule and last minute requests she always shows up. So thankful for her.

Tammie was the absolute best! Even with late notice booking, Tammie jumped in and took amazing care of my 2 senior cats over the holiday. She played with them, fed them on our discussed schedule and kept me perfectly updated. I felt at peace while on my trip and will definitely book again with her some day. Thanks so much Tammie!

Andrea did an amazing job with my four cats plus a bonus foster cat, which she was very accommodating with! Even my shyest, formerly feral cat loved her! I had so much peace of mind while on vacation with my cats in her care. Will absolutely book again and highly recommend!!
