“Denise helped us out with great follow through. From what she showed us when she met our cats, she is very intuitive to their needs. She loves animals and that sealed the deal!”
“Will be tough to trust our boy, Sango, with anyone else! Justin is awesome — excellent communication and truly cares about Sango. It’s possible Sango enjoyed our week away from home more than we did.”
“Lauren has watched our dog, Beth multiple times now and is always very communicative! She picks up on things going on with Beth - whether she’s hungry or needing a longer walk and responds accordingly! She has worked with our changing schedules flawlessly and is always happy to go above and beyond to make sure our dog is as happy as can be!”
“Kiara was available for us when our pet sitter quit last minute. We were across the country, and Kiara help ease the stress. We were having to have a friend help but thankfully Kiara was available to take over last minute the next morning. She made sure our dogs were taken care of sent adorable photos. She was thoughtful and always considered their well being. We would definitely use Kiara again!”
“Thank you, Kirsten, for looking after my dear companion in my absence. The daily notes and images really helped me feel at ease. Kirsten is personable, competent and, above all, reliable. My kitty warmed to her immediately.”
“I recommend Jessie with the highest of praise! She took wonderful care of my two cats. She looked after my boys while I was away for my honeymoon, providing plenty of photos and updates. She is thorough, kind, and kept the cats rooms super clean and the boys happy! She went above and beyond.”
About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life! I’ve grown up in a house full of cats but we’ve also always made room for our dogs as well! I think I’m a great pet sitter because i’ve had plenty of experience caring for all animals alike. I’ve sat my aunts turtles and puppies, and my neighbors fish and reptiles. I can’t wait to get to know your babies! I’m currently working at a preschool part time but looking for another position. In the meantime I’d love to explore some of my other passions, one of those being pet care! right now my schedule makes me available anytime and when i do work for the school it’s from 2pm-6pm! All of your babies lives matter to me! I am fully committed to doing anything and everything I can to make sure your little one is safe and taken care of!
“Jenna was very communicative and sent pictures of our puppy during her brief stay with him. She relieved another full time sitter (who had a previous commitment) and she stepped right in and took care of Bear like he was her own. I could tell she really loves pets and was thoughtful with her questions. I would recommend Jenna and will definitely consider her in the future. Thank you, Jenna! ?”
About: I’ve grown up my whole life around animals, we had 2 Great Pyrenees and 2 Pitbull/Mastiff Mixes. I absolutely loved caring for them and playing with them. I dog sat all throughout highschool into college and now that I’m settled down in my own house I’ve realized how much I miss it! So I’m getting started on Rover hoping I can help care for your pups when you aren’t able to while doing something I love! I have a toddler and a 1 year old Blackmouth Curr/Terrier mix named Nala. Nala is the absolute sweetest and thrives around other dogs. I do ask that for boarding that your pup is good around other dogs and children! I’m currently a stay at home mom to my toddler and my pup! So I have the free time to be able to help with yours 😊 I have a very large fenced in yard and lots of room to take dogs out for walks and to play! If I am sitting or walking at your home I always make sure to keep notes as to what rules you have or what your pups routine is.
About: With 9 years of hands on experience caring for pets, I bring a flexible and intuitive approach to pet care that meets each pup where they are. Whether your dog needs a calm gentle companion, or a high-energy play, I adapt to their personality and needs. I have a little bit of experience with obedience training with puppies and can also care for senior dogs. I am currently only offering boarding, walks and drop-in visits but I am committed to making your dog feel safe, loved and right at home - even when you’re away! I am a recent graduate of UTC and just started working for Unum. I work from home most days but have to go into the office on Wednesdays and Thursdays! I’m available anytime that I’m not in the office as my at-home work hours are flexible. When caring for pets in your home, I first like to read the pets profile so I can see if there are any special instructions/needs that I need to know about. I offer a variety of services so how I care for your pet is based on what I am booked for. For walks, I like to find a safe/familiar place to walk them, like your neighborhood. I’ll usually walk them for the full amount of time and make sure they have water when we are finished. When dog sitting, I try to make sure I follow all instructions left by you, the owner. I usually make sure your pet has food, water, walks, and lots of cuddles/play time!
About: I am different from other sitter because I will take my time and actually play with your dog. Also get to know the dog and see what they like and don’t like. I will go beyond to take care of your dog. I am free the rest of the summer. The only thing I do have is softball I play one game in the morning till July 13 but that’s it. I have a fenced in backyard with to friendly english bulldogs. They love dogs and are very nice. Also I will go pretty much anywhere to a clients home and make sure the dog is okay.
About: I have taken care of pets of every kind and size. Some of my neighbors, friends and family have trusted me with their fur babies. I currently work from home and the dog park in my community is just steps from my build. I take the dogs to the dog park 3 times a day! My life revolves around my son and my dogs! We enjoy pet sitting very much. My two dogs are very friendly and love playing with other dogs. While in the apartment I usually have relaxing dog music to help them relax and rest ( it also helps if dogs get anxious while away from home). 😊

Tiffani m.
“Tiffani is probably the best pet sitter I've ever gotten by far. My dog Angus can be quite shy around strangers, but he opened up to her so quickly. There was absolutely no issues during my time away and she even mentioned that he started to lay and push on her which Angus rarely ever does to new people. I've had her back to watch him 5 or 6 more times since then and I have nothing but praise for the care she puts in for my furry guy. 5 stars all the way around!”
