“Teresa did a great job of taking care of our 2 Jack Russell mix rescues They seemed perfectly comfortable around her (but were still happy to see us when we got home ;-) Our home was well taken care of also.”


“This was our first time using Karen and our Jack Russell pups seemed very comfortable with her. One of them doesn't make friends easily with strangers but was laying at her feet soaking up petting after about 10 minutes. Karen took great care of our home and pets while we were away.”


“Kim is wonderful! It's the first time I have left my pets with a hired in house pet sitter in a long time but felt very at ease with Kim. My dog is 15 years old and has good days and bad days so I wasn't sure how she would handle a pet sitter but she was well taken care of. I was sent many pics over the 5 days of my pets being comfortable and loved on. Will be hiring again for sure!”


“Sure! Here’s a concise and positive review you can leave for your Rover dog sitter: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ysalys was fantastic! Super communicative throughout the entire stay—kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was clearly well cared for and happy. I’d absolutely book again!”


“First time we have ever left our dogs overnight that we returned to happy, relaxed puppers. They obviously loved hanging out with Angela. She kept me updated on the situation at the house and I found it immaculate when I returned. Angela didn't move a single item out of place and things were kept just as clean as when I left. I can't recommend Angela enough. She is a rare find.”


“Kiersten is an accomplished young woman with a gift caring for animals. I have a skittish rescue cat who thrived under Kiersten's care. I would have her take care of Scooter again and highly recommend her to others”


“Hannah took great care of my pups. She corresponded each day, and shared photo updates. Two of my pups are very very old, and require extra care. She did a great job with them. I also came home to a totally clean house.”


“Absolutely loved having Caterina take care of our Teddy while we were away for the holiday weekend! From the start, she was super easy to communicate with—she made sure to touch base before, during, and after her stay, which really put us at ease. We especially appreciated that she stayed overnight with Teddy; knowing he had company made all the difference. The photos and updates she sent were the best part—it was so comforting to see him happy and well taken care of. He was clearly in great hands, being spoiled with love and attention in our home. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and will definitely be reaching out to Caterina again next time we’re away! Highly recommend!”


About: Hello! I am a dedicated, trustworthy dog lover with a deep passion for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s a high-energy Malinois who needs structured exercise, a senior dog who needs a little extra TLC, or a shy rescue pup building confidence, I adjust my approach to fit each dog’s unique needs. I believe in calm, confident leadership, clear communication, and lots of love — just like I treat my own dogs. What I Offer: • Daily dog walks (structured or casual) • Drop-in visits (mealtime, potty breaks, meds, play) • In-home dog sitting with a focus on routine and comfort • Puppy care & basic obedience reinforcement • Updates with photos and notes so you feel connected I’m comfortable with strong breeds, leash reactivity, and special needs dogs. Safety, reliability, and respect are my top priorities — both for your dog and your home. Let’s set up a meet & greet and see if we’re a good match. I can’t wait to meet your pup! Punctual, trustworthy, and detail-oriented. I stick to your dog’s schedule to reduce stress and keep things consistent. Safety, communication, and respect are my top priorities. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I follow clear routines, respect your home, and provide on-time, reliable care you can count on every visit

“Stephanie knows her stuff. She had experience and was very comfortable giving one of our diabetic cats twice daily injections and special food. She stayed at the house to take care of our cats - including an outside, barn cat. She was so knowledgeable and had a way of reassuring me that she knew what she was doing that made me feel safe and at ease to leave our cats in her hands. She sent us photos of our cats (some of them camped out on her lap :) One of the things that I loved most is she asked me a question while we were gone. Most other sitters must have just assumed what to do, which may not have been correct. I am so thankful that Stephanie asked me instead of just assuming. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!!”


“MaShon is an amazing pet sitter! She is so kind and thoughtful you can really tell she cares about your pets! She is also a great communicator before, during and after your reservation. We couldn't be happier with her services and would absolutely hire her again.”


“April was really great. She took care of ritz like he was her own. She played with him, gave him treats and loved on him. I would definitely recommend her.”


“Heather did a great job with our home and with our oets. Definitely will use her again.”


“Sarah was awesome. Our puppies loved her, and she was very responsible, even putting up with us being helicopter puppy parents! :). Her dog, Lyla was very friendly and played will with our puppies. We will definitely be calling her again.”
