“Elliot was great! This was the second time he helped us out with dog sitting our two big dogs. He was very communicative and flexible with his hours. The dogs obviously loved him. I highly recommend him if you are looking for extended pet/house sitting.”



“Tasha was amazing! She took great care of our pets while we were out of town for a week. It took a lot for us to trust someone to stay at our house with our pets and I am glad we gave her a chance. We came home to happy animals and the house exactly as we left it. She also sent daily pictures to keep us updated. 100% would recommend, she loves animals and will be great with your pets 😊”


About: I’ve had over 50 years of caring for many breeds of dogs, including my own. I am respectful of others homes and can be trusted to give loving care to your dogs. I am a retiree that has a fairly open schedule and able to spend the night at your home. I may need to leave for an hour two at times for health appts. and going to our home to let our own dog out for a bit. I am flexible on how to care for your dogs in your home, including using a crate. I will respect your current ways of sharing your home with your dogs.

“Bridget did a wonderful job with both our cat and dog. She went above and beyond with regards to sending photos, keeping us up to date on everything, and making sure our pets were happy. It was visible in the photos how comfy and content our pets were with her. She even did arts and crafts with them and took Letti to get ice cream. On top of all this, Bridget was watching our pets at a point where the cat and dog were getting used to living with one another, and she did a wonderful job giving them supervised interactions and continuing our socialization for both of them while we were gone. Can’t recommend her enough!”


“Stacey was amazing and went above and beyond for me and my pets. She mentioned she has 3 large dogs and her experience really showed. At one point I ran out of dog food and she offered to go pick some up. She also watched over my guinea pig and took great care of him, since she has rabbits of her own. I will definitely be booking her again and again!”


“Lexi is one of the best sitters out there! You can tell she is passionate for animals and treats them as her own. She was so great at communicating with us and is very responsive. We received a video update on our pups as well. The house was left in the same shape we left it in. Very kind, sweet, and caring girl!”


“I couldn’t be any happier with the care, attention and communication we experienced last week with Rick!!! 5 stars all the way. Our 17 year old dog is dead with declining hind leg usage and Rick’s home was the perfect place for him to explore. No steps, fenced in yard and a very caring and knowledgeable care giver. I will definitely hire Rick again! Highly recommend!”


“Alison is amazing and I highly recommend her! She was my first sitter using Rover and the first dog sitter I’ve hired that I didn’t know. She took excellent care of my senior dog Jax (13 year old malamute mix with arthritis who is on multiple medications) and excellent care of my home! I was nervous about leaving him, but my nerves were instantly calmed when I met her for an introduction meeting before my trip. She sent multiple photos each day and her updates on how he was doing made me feel like she genuinely cared about him. I usually get some attitude from Jax for leaving him, but he was in such good spirits when I came home that I really think he enjoyed his time with her. The house was the least of my concerns, but she took excellent care of that as well! Don’t hesitate to book with her if she’s available! I would give her 100 stars if possible.”


About: I grew up surrounded by dogs—including chihuahuas, a Bernese Mountain Dog, and currently a high-energy golden retriever and a 14-year-old senior chihuahua. I understand the unique needs of puppies, active breeds, and senior pets. I follow care routines to the letter and truly enjoy connecting with each animal’s personality. Whether it’s energetic play or gentle companionship, I provide thoughtful, consistent, and loving care. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine. I am a part time student and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for walks, feedings, medications, and quality time throughout the day and evening. I treat every home and pet with respect. I follow detailed instructions and prioritize cleanliness, comfort, and routine. I ensure pets have a safe, familiar environment—whether that means sticking to their feeding schedule, using harnesses properly on walks, or keeping medications on track. Communication is key, and I always provide timely updates to pet parents.

About: I’m usually the first person my family calls when they need someone to care for their cutie pets while they’re away. As a grad student and pet owner myself, I understand the emotional support that animals can provide! Pets are family members and I understand what it takes to look after family. I send daily photo updates and report back any information requested. I have experience maintaining training schedules for puppies. I’m diligent at following care plans and requests. Overall, I truly to enjoy connecting with animals and their owners alike! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and considering me. I’m currently working towards my graduate degree and have a flexible daily schedule. I am able to stop by routinely (in between classes or internship commitments) to take care of your pet! I am available most weekends and weekdays. My schedule is subject to change in a few weeks with the start of a new semester. My goal is to continue the quality of care that your pet is used to. I want to reduce the amount of stress they might experience in the absence of their loving owner(s)! Keeping their routine as similar as possible is key. Meal times, walk times, crate/no crate, on/off furniture, treats, etc. are all things I try to attend to. I am open to specific requests your pet might need!

“I’ve had so many awful experiences with walkers which has lead me to be distrustful to all walkers. I told Samantha some of this and that I wanted updates and she surpassed every last one of my expectations! She went above and beyond with time spent, communication etc etc. highly recommend.”

“Brooke was fantastic to work with and did a great job taking care of Scarlett while we were out of town. She sent daily updates and pictures letting us know our Lil Miss was doing just fine. She ran the vacuum and left the kitchen spotless. We will definitely use her again.”

“Taylor did a wonderful job with the dogs! This was our first time booking her and she exceeded expectations. Her communication throughput the day was appreciated. The dogs took to her immediately. We will definitely book Taylor again.”


“We booked Austin and Katie for a weekend for our 2 cats and 2 dogs. They arrived in the early morning to feed and potty our pets, and stopped by late at night to do the same. It was comforting knowing our animals weren’t left alone for too long. The visits were frequent and an appropriate duration, and the dogs genuinely were excited to see Katie when she arrived. She actually stopped by before the weekend to meet the animals and go through their routines with us. Her energy was good and calming, and we felt very comfortable leaving our babies with her. She texted pics and updated throughout the weekend, which was so appreciated!!! Will book again!!!”


“Paislee and I both love Emily!! She took great care of Paislee, sent updates and took her for a walk at the park!! I’m so happy we found Emily and will definitely be booking again with her!! ?”
