This was the first time I'd used a house sitter for my 9 month old poodle. Chondra did an excellent job! She sent me photos. On my ring camera I could see she was giving my puppy lots of love, and walks. Since she works from home anyway, all she needed was a wifi hookup. The house was in perfect shape when I got home, she'd vacuumed and straightened everything... With a puppy it's a constant battle. I've already booked her for another trip. I highly recommend.

Lyle did an awesome job with watching our two furbabies in our home for two weeks! He kept them on their routine and most importantly gave their meds on time. The latter is extremely important since one of our babies has seizures. We were so worried to leave since the last Rover experience didn't go so well and so we came home early. Thankfully all went great with Lyle. He gave daily updates and was very transparent. Will definitely use him again!!!

Judy provided great communication the entire trip and ensured my dog got the correct medications. She left the house clean and it gave me peace of mind knowing Judy was at home with my dog.

Skye is a wonderful human being and an amazing pet/house sitter. She is kind, conscientious, communicative and proactive, She not only followed all instructions to the letter, but went above and beyond my requests. My dog and 2 cats were only a bit happy to see me once I returned (having received such great care /love!) , and the house was in perfect order. Do not even hesitate to book this lovely woman to care for your furbabies!

About: I’ve been around fur babies my entire life, caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I’m comfortable using the intuitive understanding of their needs and behaviors that I have gained throughout my years to adapt my care to match each dog’s unique temperament and routine. I’ve also spent time caring for senior pets for family members, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentleness they require, whether that means maintaining routines, supporting mobility, or offering calm companionship. On top of that, I’ve raised and cared for my own stubborn shih tzu, which taught me a lot about patience and how to handle strong-willed dogs with both structure and love. What sets my care apart from most, I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach, I focus on truly knowing each pet as if they were my own: learning their personality, respecting their routine, and creating a safe, stress-free environment where they feel secure and loved. Clients can expect reliable communication, updates, and the peace of mind that their pet is not just being watched but cared for. As a college student home for the summer, pet care fits seamlessly into a very open and flexible schedule. With ample availability throughout the day and week, there is plenty of time to provide attentive, consistent care. This flexibility allows for adapting to each pet’s routine and ensuring they receive the time and attention they deserve. Creating a comfortable and trustworthy environment is always the top priority. Care is tailored to each pet’s routine to keep things familiar and stress-free, with close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions provided. Walks are always done with safety in mind, using secure leashing and awareness of surroundings. In a client’s home, respect for both the space and the pet’s comfort is key: keeping things clean, calm, and consistent while maintaining open communication. The goal is to ensure every pet feels secure, cared for, and happy, while giving owners absolute peace of mind.

About: My experience and background with animals spans over the course 20 years. I've worked as a veterinary technician, fostered nearly 2 dozen puppies for rescue programs, and founded my own successful non-profit rescue & conservation program dedicated to primitive canids. I had the wonderful experience of helping one of these rare dogs whelp & raise a massive litter of 12. I've owned numerous breeds including a Beagle, working-line German Shepherd, working-line Anatolian Shepherd, and numerous primitives such Carolina Dogs, a coydog hybrid, & an imported Canaan Dog. I've trained dogs in sports such as schutzhund & nosework. I established my private dog training business in 2019- specializing in puppies and working dogs such as service & livestock guardian dogs. I've been blessed to own two wonderful cats! On our homestead we had an incredible indoor/outdoor boy that kept the rodents at bay. We also have a sweet, indoor-only kitty that lives the high life with raw food & endless cuddles! I'm thoroughly experienced in caring for senior dogs & cats, administering medications, first aid, & wound care. I've fed numerous specialized diets, including fully raw. I adore the puppy stage- including crate training, potty training, & socialization. I'm a strong advocate for socialization that bolsters confident neutrality. A puppy's endless curiosity is so fun to harness! I enjoy giving dogs a balance of outdoor exercise like hiking, as well as indoor mental enrichment like games and puzzles. A tired dog is a happy dog! I train dogs part time & homeschool my daughter- which lends me a great deal of flexibility in my schedule. I can often accommodate short notice requests. Your beloved pet's safety is critical to me. I'm extremely cautious with opening & closing doors so no animals can slip through a door, check the fit of a dog's collar to prevent potential backing out, & ensure there's nothing a pup or kitty could get into thats potentially dangerous. I have a very strong preference for using martingale collars on dogs for walks to mitigate that risk. I've personally endured the tragedy of my young dog slipping the door and being hit by a car while a sitter was taking care of him- so I assure you I take this very seriously. Building trust with both owners and their pets is pivotal! I'm committed to open communication and honesty. I allow pets to greet me on their terms and understand some animals need a more patient, gentle approach than others. I strive to create a positive, calm environment for your pets- and once I'm trusted by them, I will add the playfulness and affection they deserve!

Sarah was amazing! She stayed at our home while we were away and took as much care for our home as she did for our pup. She sent updates throughout the weekend and gave us a detailed recap as she was leaving. It was nice to not have to worry about anything, knowing Sarah was taking good care of everything. Highly recommend!!

Nik did an excellent job taking care of our very energetic golden while we were away on vacation. He sent tons of updates with photos about how his stay was going which really put us at ease! The house was clean when we came home (another huge bonus!) we would definitely book him again in the future.

I will DEFINITELY use Josiah as often as possible! He followed all my instructions and my dog absolutely loved him. My beagle suffers from separation anxiety, and it's hard to find someone who not only compassionately understands his needs, but also with whom my dog feels comfortable and secure! When I arrived home, my dog was sleeping at Josiah's side. I think I finally found a perfect match!

Michelle was great with my Great Danes! She sent many pictures of them running around the yard, getting cozy, and just being their goofy selves. She managed meds, feeds, fun, and supported them through a stormy night. What I appreciated most is that Michelle is a great communicator! I would love to have her watch the boys again!

Milo was great! I will have him back again. He is good at daily communication and sending photos. When I got home my dog acted like I was never gone which is good because she has separation anxiety. I know she got a lot of love and attention from Milo.

About: I have been caring for cats and dogs ever since I was young. I have cared for animals of all ages young to senior. I have experience administering pills and I have helped follow suit of owners training while they are away. I currently do pet sitting full time, and it is the best job I could ask for! I love filling my days with overnights, dog walking, and drop in visits. Occasionally I will pick up some shifts at my friends dog grooming shop but more often than not, I am somewhere snuggling and giving attention to dogs and cats! I will be extra attentive and follow the same routine that they are used to. Walks, playing fetch, whatever the case may be I will do my best to make your animals feel comforted and cared for while you, the owner, is away. I will care for them as if they are my own.

Jennifer was great with Kona. We were first time Rover users with a dog that we were slightly nervous of leaving with someone new and she was absolutely fantastic. From the first meeting, she made us feel comfortable and confident in choosing her. She was kind, responsive, and professional. Throughout her stay we remained updated with pictures and came home to a clean house and happy dog. She will be highly recommended by us to all moving forward!

About: I've had both cats and dogs as family members for many years. Now I currently love my family and friends' pets as if they were my own. I currently work in the office 4 days per week but can leave after 4 hours and be home around noon. I'm a home body so I'm comfortable snuggling and spending playtime with your pets. I usually watch my friends and family's pets in the comfort of their own homes. I often have their pets at my home as well but usually for short periods, though sometimes overnight. I usually initiate playtime and welcome snuggling.
