“Celeste was amazing with our boys in our home. She spent time loving on them, taking care of them, and making sure they were safe when she left. She sent pictures any time she visited and we always came home to no accidents and 2 very happy boys. Would DEFINITELY recommend and use again.”


“First time using Rover and Lillie has been amazing! We couldn’t be happier with the care she has provided for our pups. From the start, she was professional, in constant communication and passionate. Lillie kept us updated with check in’s and pictures, which gave great peace of mind. She was respectful of our home and went above and beyond, to take our packages in and left the house clean. I highly recommend Lillies services!”


“Greg has done several drop ins including one at the very last minute. He is 100% reliable and I completely trust that he will be here when he says he will be here. The dogs appear comfortable and relaxed around him. Thank you Greg!”


“Danielle was very compassion and caring with my little pup! She follows instructions very well and is easy to communicate with! Will be reaching out again to have her visit my pup! Thank you!”


“Melanie is thoughtful, kind and conscientious! Our pack is so happy to see her and also match her calm and caring demeanor. We are so grateful to have Melanie a part of our pack!”


About: With 30+ years caring for my own pets and 15 years sitting for friends, I bring gentle, attentive care to cats and dogs alike. Belly rubs, cuddles, and kindness are always included. I prioritize comfort, routine, and emotional well-being—especially for shy, or sensitive pets. I’m currently in a relocation phase and not working full-time, so my schedule is wide open for pet care. I love spending time with animals—whether it’s drop-in cuddles, playtime, or checking in on their routines. I treat each visit like a little ritual of comfort and joy, tailored to their unique needs. I offer drop-in care only and do not host pets in my home. During visits, I create a calm, nurturing environment tailored to your pet’s routine and emotional needs. I focus on gentle engagement—playtime, cuddles, and reassurance—while also keeping an eye on food, water, litter, and any medications or requests. Each visit is customized with loving attention to detail.

“Rhiannon was wonderful (this was our second time working with her) -- our cat loves her! We so appreciated the videos and photos while we were away. Thank you!”


“Geneva was fantastic with my kitties! She was super responsive and knowledgeable. I felt super comfortable leaving my cats to her for the holidays. Even my cat who is skiddish warmed up quickly to her! Highly recommend for anyone who wants an attentive and friendly sitter. Thanks, Geneva!!”


“Gabriella has taken care of our pups and cat two different times now and they're always well cared for. We get nice check-in notes and photos. Definitely would recommend. Thanks again, Gabriella!”


“Vanessa visited with my girls while I was away, and took the best care of them. They were instantly comfortable with her and Vanessa took care in giving them the attention and play time they need before their dinner, keeping them happy during a lonely time :) thank you Vanessa!”


“I was so hesitant about having someone I didn’t know come into my home and care for my pups, but I’m extremely glad I booked Taylor. She did a meet and greet with us, which made me feel more more at ease. She was flexible with my changing schedule and communicated well. I have already rebooked her for another need and will continue to do so.”


About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. As the founder of a nonprofit rescue, I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to introverted senior cats, and I truly believe every animal deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood. I specialize in shy, quirky, or high-needs pets—those who might take a little extra patience (and maybe a snack bribe or two) to warm up. The photos you see here? They’re a mix of foster pets, my personal pets, and beloved dog-sitting clients. If your pet has ever been described as “a little dramatic,” “selectively friendly,” or “too smart for their own good,” we’ll get along just fine. My approach is gentle, flexible, and grounded in experience—and lots of treats. I tailor my care to each pet’s needs and personality, whether they’re a wild child or a cuddle bug. My goal is for your furry family member to feel right at home—even when they’re not. Someone is home most of the day, so your pets will have plenty of companionship. We’re only ever away for a max of four hours at a time—perfect for pets who need extra snuggles or supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love making new pals. I can easily crate your pup if needed or keep them separated if they prefer their own space. My home is pet-proofed, cozy, and always full of love (and treats).

Melissa F.
“Thank you Rover for allowing me the opportunity to talk about my experiences with Melissa. First, you should know that I am very particular about who takes care of my pets when i am not able. All of my pets have been rescued, (or they rescued me). I had a few disappointing experiences with pet sitters, until I met Melissa. We became great friends along the way, and Melissa moved in and became a part of our family. My pets took to Melissa easily. Melissa always showed great love, respect and responsibility, compassion and care to all of our pets, throughout the stages of their lives. Melissa was a pillar of strength to me and to the pets. Melissa is a strong person, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. She will offer you & your fur babies everything that she possibly can. You and your fur babies will feel all the love we did. You will be safe and secure with Melissa. Melissa is always my first choice. But, unfortunately Melissa moved out of state & i still haven't found one person that i can trust to tend to my pets other than Melissa.”
