We last minute needed a pet sitter as we were going out of town for the weekend, and Michelle picked our request up immediately. She exceeded our expectations, was punctual, and took great care of our kitty Demetrios. She left detailed notes for us and cutest photos from her visit. We will continue booking with Michelle and we recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter. Thanks so much Michelle!!

About: I recently moved here from Utah, where I volunteered at Best Friend’s Animal Society. This gave me experience in handling dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I also received training on several different dog handling related topics, including recognizing when dogs are stressed and what they need in those situations. I completed the training and competencies for both beginner and intermediate level dogs at Best Friend’s. I am an absolute dog lover at heart, from a very young age. Apart from volunteering at Best Friend’s, I would also regularly dog sit for different friends and co-workers. I currently work full time as a RN, but my 12 hour shifts give me flexibility to care for pets on my days off during the week and on weekends. I certainly recognize that pets are a part of the family, and promise to treat your dogs as if they were my own. I know that it is not easy to trust a stranger to care for your pets, and I do not take that lightly.

Crystal was punctual, warm, and provided great communication and care for our two cat children. She is also apparently magical, as she was able to give some love to our resident shy guy who hides from everyone. Will call on her again soon!

Thank you Cristal and Chris for taking such good care of our cats. You kept them both happy and content with playtime (Tortellini) and kept anxiety at bay (Bonita). You made them both feel at ease. We will make sure to book you guys again, thanks for being so cool, awesome, and attentive!

About: I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog, because they are not “just a pet.” They are family. Whether you need dependable everyday care or someone to step in for a last-minute dinner date, I’m your gal, Val! I have spent much of my life caring for and working with dogs. My mother is a dog groomer by trade, so I grew up in a shop, knew our local shelter techs and vets, and even got to shadow veterinary surgical procedures as early as middle school. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, using specialized collars and harnesses, reinforcing established training routines, and caring for dogs with very different needs and personalities. I am patient with teething puppies, cautious rescues, high-energy pups who would rather walk me, and sweet senior “old geezers” who need a gentler pace or extra support for conditions like hip dysplasia. I understand that puppies need consistency, supervision, and positive reinforcement, while senior dogs may need medication schedules, mobility accommodations, and a little more patience. I also genuinely love big dogs, including the ones who think they are lap-sized (adorable, but factually incorrect). Most importantly, I treat every dog as an individual. Whether your pup needs an adventure buddy, a calm and reassuring presence, or someone who can confidently manage a detailed routine, I will make sure they feel safe, understood, and thoroughly loved. I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pup lots of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I love having a furry coworker nearby. I can easily accommodate regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, exercise, and plenty of affection. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I follow each pet’s usual feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. I provide lots of playtime, affection, enrichment, and outdoor breaks based on their energy level and personality. I am also happy to send regular photos and updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is having a great time.

About: I have hands-on experience with reactive dogs, having raised and trained two of my own. I know how much patience, consistency, and calm energy it takes to help a nervous or reactive pup feel safe, and I’ve spent countless hours on exposure work and training to do just that. Whether your dog is shy, anxious, or still learning their manners, they’re in understanding hands with me Caring for dogs is part of my daily rhythm. Between my own dog and the time I spend on walks and play, dogs are always in my schedule. I have plenty of flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and giving your pup the time and attention they deserve I’ll always come to you, where your dog feels safest. I’ll follow whatever routine your pup already knows, and when we’re walking, my phone stays in my pocket so your dog has my full attention. I always keep the leash secure and lock up before I go. If your dog is reactive, you’re in good hands. I’ve had two reactive dogs of my own, so I know how to stay calm, read the signs, and move them away from triggers before things get to be too much. Either way, you’ll get photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and safe

Daisy took wonderful care of our two cats, Leaf and Nugget, for seven days while we were away. We reached out on fairly short notice, and she was incredibly accommodating and easy to work with from the start. She was professional, reliable, and very kind throughout the entire week. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats, which gave us great peace of mind while we were traveling. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about animals and treats them as if they were her own. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided and would absolutely recommend Daisy to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. We look forward to having her watch Leaf and Nugget again in the future!

Natalia was incredible with my two cats! I had to book last minute drop-ins for the holiday weekend, but everything went smoothly. She sent the cutest update photos of the cats, and she was very accommodating of their needs- even playtime, which I know they loved! I came home to happy, well-fed, clean kitties. Thank you Natalia!🩷

I am so glad to have found Kaylan for our pets! She is fantastic with our dog and cat. As an owner of a geriatric dog and a food-insecure cat, both have complex needs which Kaylan expertly catered to. She is incredibly communicative, dependable, and most importantly, our pets love her!

Akanksha came to walk our dog on the days we were having some bday celebrations. It was such a big relief to know that my high energy dog was still getting her walks in even if I'm at the amusement park all day or hosting friends all day. You can clearly see that she has a way with dogs and my dog loves her so much. She really takes the time to get to know our dog's personality and work with her at the level my dog requires. Thank you for being an amazing dog walker!

Alexis was absolutely fantastic. As a first time Rover user, I was a little nervous, but she immediately put my mind at ease. She took great care of my Shiba Inu, Bob, while following my instructions perfectly. She even noticed a small detail I'd overlooked in my notes, which really speaks to how attentive she is. Most importantly, my dog had an incredible time and was clearly comfortable with her. He genuinely seemed a little disappointed when it was time for her to leave! I would book Alexis again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who will care for their dog and home as if they were her own.

We are SO thankful we found Valerie! 🥹 We reached out to her super last minute and she was kind enough to accommodate us the very next day. She even came over the night before around 7pm just to meet us and Prince and make sure everyone felt comfortable before his first visit. During her visit, she went above and beyond. She fed Prince by hand (cause our little guy is so extra sometimes), cleaned up his potty pads (and always wiped his little bum), and even stayed and played with him for two whole hours! 🥹🐶 It gave us so much peace of mind knowing that he wasn’t just being checked on, but was actually getting the same attention, playtime, and love while we were away. We’re incredibly grateful for how caring, accommodating, flexible, and attentive Valerie has been, especially on such short notice. As fellow nurses, we also really appreciate how dependable and caring she is. We already feel so comfortable having her care for our little guy and would absolutely recommend her! 🤍
