“I couldn't recommend Jen more! I knew from previous experience working with her that she was great with animals and there was no one better to trust my animals with. I have an anti-social husky who most people want to pet and interact with right away but Jen was so good about listening to me about her behaviors and respecting her space. She was able to read her body language well to know when she did and did not want to interact and was just understanding of her needs. I trust very few people with my pets and Jen is one of them!”
“Bria was fantastic. This was our first time booking with her and the meet and greet went smoothly. She took excellent care of both Hampton and Neko and kept our home clean and tidy. We felt completely at ease while we were away. We are already looking forward to having her sit for us again soon. Highly recommend.”
“Kathleen took great care of our senior cat and our home. She navigated some technical challenges with our alarm system with professionalism and good humor. Highly recommend. Will definitely re-book.”
“Jennifer was great! She stayed with my dog overnight and was in touch frequently providing updates and pictures. My dog is a big guy who can be pretty reactive to other dogs and she handled their walks well with no issues. Came back to a tired and happy pup.”
“Zana is knowledgeable and experienced. It was such a relief to be able to enjoy our vacation, knowing that our pets were comfortable, happy, and cared for. She is an excellent communicator, and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Zana!”
About: Hi! I'm Vince. I'm a 24 year old college student & I have a life time of experience taking care of dogs and other animals of all sorts. I've been working with Rover for about 2 years now. I love animals, dogs especially, and I can take care of feeding, walking and bathing. We have a somewhat small yard, but it's big enough for your dog to run around in, and I'll usually take them for 2-4 walks a day, depending on your instruction. As stated on my profile, I'm willing to take care of boarding, drop-in visits, walking, and overnight stays/drop-ins at your place, if necessary. Don't hesitate to contact me, I'll make sure your pup is happy and gets plenty of attention! :)
“I was very pleased with the care that my special needs senior dog received by Kaitlyn. The instructions I gave her were followed for the dogs care. She stayed the nights which I know made the dog comfortable. Kaitlyn left the house in perfect condition. She sent photo updates daily. I am very satisfied with the professionalism I received. Will definitely use her again!”
“This is our second time using Michael. Michael did a great job with our babies once again. He kept them busy with going to the park and walks. Thank you so much”

“Kelsey was great to work with. She was very communicative, sent plenty of photos of the puppies, and responded quickly to messages. She also made sure to clean and straighten up the house before leaving. Overall, it was a positive experience, and I'd be happy to work with her again in the future”
“There aren't words to describe my appreciation for Victoria as our dog sitter on Thursday night. I remember reading her bio and thinking... she has vet tech experience, but of course we won't need that. Life happens when you have to go out of town and there is no one more caring, willing, and able to care for your pets when the unthinkable happens. My doggo somehow contracted pancreatitis and Victoria ending up taking her to the vet in an emergent situation when I was out of town. I greatly appreciate her insights and knowledge and genuine care for my doggos. I look forward to booking her again in the future, with the piece of mind that Bruno and Jean Grey will be 110% taken care of.”
About: I’m currently training to be a therapist so I have a keen sense for emotions… pets included! I’ve dog sat for family numerous times and am hoping to branch out. I love being around animals, am a very easy guest, and will happily send you any pictures of your pets! I have class 1-9pm on Monday and Wednesday but am mostly free otherwise! I get up early to swim twice a week (Fri and Sat), but can go straight back if needed. I don’t do much, so I’m pretty open! I’m willing to do whatever I can to help the pet feel safe and welcomed. Whether they want to play, rest, eat, or walk, I’m happy to help them out!
About: I've been around dogs since I was 3 years old and can’t imagine life without them! I have experience with dogs of all ages, but I have a soft spot for both senior pups and energetic puppies. I cared for my own dog until he was 17, so I’m familiar with the patience, gentleness, and attention older dogs need. I’ve also volunteered at shelters and have cared for many pets as if they were my own. I follow each owner’s wishes carefully and truly believe dogs can never get too much love. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority. As a teacher, I have a consistent schedule that allows me to offer pet care before and after school, as well as on weekends. I'm also available during holidays, school breaks, and throughout the entire summer. This flexibility allows me to provide reliable care during times that are often difficult to find coverage. Whether you need regular visits or occasional help, I’m happy to work around your schedule and give your pet the attention they deserve. Whether your pet stays with me or I come to your home, I prioritize their comfort, routine, and safety. I take time to understand each pet’s unique needs, whether it’s feeding schedules, exercise, medications, or just extra snuggles. In my home, pets are treated like family, with plenty of attention, a calm environment, and room to relax or play. In your home, I aim to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible, following your instructions closely and giving your pet the love and care they’re used to. I'm reliable, respectful, and always treat your home and pet with care.
“Ivy is a patient and kind dog sitter who does well with our shy Danes! One of our dogs takes time to warm up and Ivy was patient and sent periodic updates on the progress she made in building connection.”
“Brittney was absolutely amazing. She was so nice and communicative. She sent lots of pictures and didn’t mind giving me updates. Our pups loved her and we felt so comfortable with her taking care of them!”
“I was a little worried at first because I've never used a service like this before but, Sierra went above and beyond to make me and my pet comfortable while I was out of town. If I ever need another sitter I won’t hesitate to book Sierra again.”
About: My cat is currently 23 years old! So I’m doing something right 🙂. Also recently rescued a beautiful cane corso and was by far the best decision I’ve ever made. I am currently working full time so available after work and also on weekends. Depending on location will also depend on how many times per day. Will feed, clean litter, play with and gives tons of rubs! Also gentle holding as allowed. Can’t wait to see your fur babies and thank you for trusting me.
About: I have been taking care of friend’s, family and neighbors pets for years. I love being active so long walks and play time are the best I work from home most days 9-5 or 10-6am and I am an early riser so I can take care of early walks or support morning or afternoon bathroom breaks and walks. I am great at following directions and instructions for taking care of your pets. I will play with them either indoors or outdoors as appropriate
