“Jessica was great! My pups love her and she seems to like them a lot too. She’s very prompt, a good communicator and follows my crazy notes and instructions and requests.”

“Was in a huge crunch, time wise, and Morgan stepped up and delivered big time. She is personable, responsible, diligent and ridiculously willing (in a great way) to ensure my pets were well cared for and my mind was able to focus on my travels, and eased. Morgan sent daily pics of my pets that showed they were growing more accustomed to her twice-daily visits. She followed directions to the tee and even went beyond what was asked. Of course I’ve already booked her again! Thank you, Morgan!!!”

“Jeanie literally answered our prayers. Our dogs don’t do great at boarding facilities and we needed to find an alternative for our wedding weekend- but that felt like a difficult task to find someone who could handle our very large dogs, someone we trusted, someone we felt comfortable with, and someone who could take care a few special tasks one of our dogs needs. She was all that and more and made what tends to be a stressful day a lot less stressful. We’re so grateful for her help!”

“We really appriciated Sara and Carol taking such great care of our kitty cat. Will 100% use them again. They are so knowledgeable about animals and kind. They were also flexible when we needed it so that was super. Thank you both!”

“Kayla is so good with our animals. I appreciate her keeping us updated on them and love the pictures she sends! So nice to have someone I can trust to give our pup a little extra attention when we can’t!”

About: I have experience working with senior pets, disabled animals, and puppys. My skills include but are not limited to administering meds and shots, feeding, walking, and observing body language. I am currently going to college, I'm not working at the moment. I have a break from college till September so I have a bit of free time. Shoot me a message and we'll figure out a time! While watching pets at your home I am very diligent about keeping an eye on your animal(s) if I see anything that's out of the norm and/or a cause for concern I will contact you immediately.
“Pam is awesome! She is flexible and accommodating. She house sat our dogs Teddy & Ellie for a few days and sent lots of updates & pictures. I consider myself to be a helicopter dog parent and Pam quickly put me at ease with her great communication :) Teddy & Ellie were tired and happy when we returned. We will definitely be using Pam again in the future! ”

About: We are a busy family with a 15 year old daughter, a 13 yo mixed breed dog, and a 10 year old cat. I have had animals my whole life and will care for yours as if they are my own. I am currently unemployed so I have lots of time available to help you out. I have plenty of availability to care for your pets while you are away. I am an absolute animal lover and would love the chance to share some of that love with your pets. I have my own cat and dog at home, so I am confident I can provide exactly what your furry child needs while you are away. I have experience giving medicines to my own dog as well.
About: I have 2 years of experience working at a dog daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. From playful puppies to senior dogs with disabilities, I've seen it all. Growing up surrounded by a variety of dogs, from tiny Yorkies to gentle Great Danes, I've developed a deep understanding of their needs. Whether it's providing extra care for seniors or giving energetic pups their much-needed exercise, I’m passionate about keeping your furry friends happy and healthy! I’m available to care for your pets throughout the week! Whether you need a dog walk, check-in, or caring for your pet while away, I’m here to help! Let me know your pet’s needs, and I’ll make sure they’re well cared for during the times that work best for you. Please note: Starting June 1, 2025, my HOUSE SITTING rates will be updated. On Rover, the listed rate will show as $60 per night, which applies when you're away on vacation or need care over multiple days with daytime coverage. However, if you're booking longer daytime care without an overnight stay (for example, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM), the rate will be adjusted to $20 per hour for the time I’m actively caring for your pets. While the initial booking may still show as $60, I will manually adjust the rate on my end and send it to you for approval before confirming. This helps ensure you're only paying for the time you need, and your pets still receive high-quality, attentive care. Additionally, please note that for extended visits, I can provide early morning and late night drop ins, but will stay in my own home as I have my own fur babies to care for ☺️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in the familiar environment of your home, ensuring they feel secure and relaxed. I build trust through consistent, loving attention, treating each pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s following specific routines or providing a calm atmosphere, I make sure your furry friend feels safe and well cared for while you’re away.
“Avery did an amazing job watching over our two kitties. She gave them lots of love and attention while we were away and made leaving my fur babies a lot less stressful. She was very communicative and always sent pictures! I will definitely be hiring her again in the future :)”

“Thank you Ratih for taking care of our animals while we were gone. My wife and I are always nervous when we are away from home but Ratih kept us at ease. We especially appreciated the photos and short videos she sent us. I highly recommend her services and we will be using her again in the near future.”

“Karlee was the sweetest and most caring cat sitter! Every drop-in visit had a loving note and many photos, so I could really tell she cared for my cat. She was very responsive with communications as well. As a Rover cat sitter myself, I was quite impressed and felt better on my first trip away knowing that my cat was in good hands.”


“Jennifer was excellent with our cat. She provided great updates and even brought in a package that was sitting on our front porch. We will definitely be requesting Jennifer to do check-in visits of our cat in the future.”

“Karolina has been a lifesaver for us this summer. She is very responsive, always sends photos, and is willing to go the distance (figurative and literally—we live pretty far off the beaten path). She took the time to get to know our kitty. I was surprised when Klaire, who is shy, was on Karolina’s lap by the third visit. Thank you, Karolina!”

About: I’ve been around dogs, my whole life, starting with dog sitting for neighbors as a kid to now raising and training my own energetic lab/German Shepherd mix. I know how important is to trust someone with your pup and I bring that same love, attention, and structure to every dog I care for whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or quality time while your away, your dog will be in caring, capable hands. I work a full-time 8 to 5 job in Mount Vernon but I’m available for evening walks or job and visits during the week. I also have lots of flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays, so weekend care and visits are no problem. When I care for pets in your home, I do everything I can to keep the routine consistent and stress-free. I respect your space, follow your instructions closely, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away.
