About: I have petsat and walked dogs for quite a few years. I grew up with larger dogs and will be sure to treat yours with the utmost love and care. I have experience with animals of all sizes & I can easily adapt to the routine of your fur babies, and will prioritize them above anything else as my love for animals is that immense. I also have experience with cats & rabbits. I have my two cats named Moose & Pebble, 11 parakeets, and a dog named Moo. I update my availability weekly, but I will always be communicative about it. This is something I do in my free time and thoroughly enjoy spending time with doing. I am very passionate about animals. I follow written instructions to a T. I am very respectful of people’s homes and can be trusted. I send hourly updates whenever possible and make sure to be communicative when it comes to your fur baby or any possible questions that may pop up.
“Erik was fantastic, great communication and actively engaged in asking questions about pet care and understanding their needs ahead of time. During the stay he put my mind at ease with pictures, updates, and made it much easier to be away from my pets and home. He was even able to make some last minute changes work and the animals loved spending time with him. Good vibes all around, definitely recommend! I will be booking with Erik again!”
“Brianna was great at giving updates throughout house sitting. Any questions or issues she made it know right away. I would definitely recommend and use her again”

“Karley is an awesome dog sitter. She watched our dogs for two weeks while we were traveling. She stayed at our home, cuddled with the dogs, and made sure they were safe and in their routine. We will definitely keep asking her to care for our pups!”
“Nicole was fantastic. This was our first time using someone to dog/house sit while we were out of town. She was so respectful to our home, and especially our rescue German shepherd. She even washed the sheets she used and folded our laundry without us asking! Our dog is very particular about people and she LOVED Nicole. You can tell she is clearly a very experienced dog lover. I would give Nicole 10 stars if I could. Will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“JJ was fantastic. She housesat my cat and dog, who were clearly extremely happy with her. She sent regular updates and left the house even cleaner than she found it. Would not hesitate to book again.”
About: I grew up with three cats and help train dogs through the Leadershape! Now I typically share my dog sitting assistance with my friends (for free even!) although I don’t have pets in my own all animals will find a warm welcoming home here I’m currently working full-time, but I work in the evenings and come home on my breaks so plenty of time to check in on our furry friend during the work week I live in an apartment that has a fenced in yard for dogs and a neighborhood park nearby. I’ve sat for large dogs while living here and their needs have been accommodated!
“Kayla was awesome. She took great care of our two cats and our house. She’s a good communicator and and kept us informed during her stay. One of our cats requires medication three times a day, and Kayla didn’t flinch at this extra work. We’re grateful for her attentiveness and gladly recommend her without reservation.”
“Katie did a great job with our puppies who were sick. We did a meet and greet and our dogs loved her instantly. She asked questions to make sure meds and care was appropriate. Definately don't hesitate to book her.”

Zaria P.
“Zaria was a perfect match for our Black Mouth Cur, Piper. Piper is a challenge due to her separation anxiety, but Zaria made her feel right at home. She and Piper seemed to be on the same wavelength, allowing her to feel comfortable and at home to keep her eating and walking schedule on point. Zaria definitely has a heart for dogs and her care and intuition was very appreciated especially when working with Piper who can be quite stubborn at times. I’d highly recommend Zaria and use her services again without hesitation.”

Over 25 pet parents in New Center have booked house sitting
New Center pet parents share their Rover experiences
Abdullah was a great sitter for my old pup, had prompt communication and pictures, and followed the notes for feeding and walking times. My dog is older in life, about 75 lbs, with limited use of his hind legs and takes daily medication. Abdullah was able to maneuver him into his wagon, help him while outside in the grass, and take care of any accidents. It was a great experience working with Abdullah from initial communication about the booking to post trip follow-up.
This was my first time using Rover and I was admittedly pretty nervous. Loryn made everything so easy and calmed any nerves I had. My dog is pretty high energy, anxious and requires a lot of attention. Loryn took it all in stride and made it seem like no big deal at all. She kept me updated the entire week and sent pictures and videos and left my house in great shape. I will not hesitate to book her again.
