“Absolutely wonderful service! Amelia took great care of my babies and even got one of my cats to come out of hiding to interact with her on multiple occasions. I felt comfortable and stress-free being away from home. This was my first Rover experience and I will definitely use it over and over again! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND both Rover and Amelia.”


“Audrey is super friendly and patient with both of my boys. One is super energetic, and the other is a lot more timid. She handles both with the energy and care that they desire, and always makes them both feel special.”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and currently have two German Shepherds, Bella and Enzo, whom I’ve personally trained in basic obedience using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Caring for them has given me experience with energetic, intelligent dogs and the importance of maintaining a consistent routine. As a music educator, I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to detail—qualities that naturally carry over into how I care for pets. I’m comfortable with active, high-energy dogs as well as those who need a slower pace or extra attention. My goal is to treat every pet like family, providing reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. As an educator currently pursuing another degree, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m also an early bird, so morning walks, feedings, and potty breaks are already part of my day. I have an established daily routine with my own two dogs that I can easily incorporate into caring for your pet, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, and care. I intentionally keep my schedule organized so I can provide dependable care while keeping you updated and giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I focus on providing care that keeps your pet comfortable by maintaining their normal routine in the environment they know best. Whether I’m house sitting, stopping by for drop-in visits, or taking your dog on a walk, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, exercise, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special routines your pet is used to. As a pet owner myself, I treat every pet the way I would want someone to care for my own two dogs—with patience, kindness, and genuine attention. I believe trust is the foundation of every relationship between a pet sitter, a pet, and their owner. My goal is to earn that trust by providing dependable care, respecting your home, and keeping you updated with photos and messages so you always have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their dogs while they were away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for at all times. I am available weekdays after 2:40 PM and have flexible availability on weekends. I make it a priority to give pets the time, attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. Please note that I am currently unavailable on holidays. I always prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. I create a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, routines, medications, walks, and playtime to ensure pets remain comfortable and cared for. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of attention I would give my own animals.

About: Hi! I'm a proud dog mom of three, so I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to find someone you can trust with them! I previously managed a pet resort, where I gained plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. From energetic puppies to laid-back seniors, I've worked with them all! I'm also pet CPR certified, so safety is just as important to me as making sure your pets are happy and loved.

“Tierney did a great job. She was timely with her visits. Our dog Ted was exercised fed and cared for as we hoped he would be. Pictures and reports were appreciated. We will use her in the future and recommend her to our friends and family.”

“Chandler was great with our lab! She was very responsible, prompt and sent photos every day while we were out of town….she did a great job for us. She came to our home to get familiar with where she would be going every day and got to meet Maisey. We will certainly call her again…such a sweet person!”

Anna was absolutely AMAZING with my cats!! I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She was incredibly kind, reliable, and communicative throughout the entire process. She kept me updated, was always quick to respond, and made me feel so comfortable knowing my cats were in such great hands! She even went above and beyond to accommodate some last-minute visits, which I appreciated SO much! It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I cannot recommend Anna enough and will absolutely be booking with her again! 10/10 experience!!

It was the first time to leave my 2 Labradoodles at home because we were going away for a week to somewhere they could not go with us. My faith and trust in Kerrington to take good care of my babies made my trip enjoyable. I didn't have to worry about them. She's the best!

We can't say enough about Priya. Her communication was great and she took such good care of our pups. I was a little worried because we were staying at a campground and they were in a strange place. She sent pictures to put my mind at ease and the pups loved her. We hope to use her again when we come back next year.

Devery was really great with my cats while I was on my trip! I'm beyond pleased and immensely grateful for her attention to detail and care of my animals. She checked in with me and provided really meaningful updates everyday. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs their animals cared for!

London was great. I worked the entire week of Thanksgiving and she was there to help every single day. She was punctual and very respectful, but most importantly was Daisy. She is a little standoffish but warmed up to London faster than anybody I’ve seen. That was worth it all. Definitely recommend her.
