“Monica was truly incredible and one of the best experiences we’ve ever had with a pet sitter. She stayed in our home for four evenings caring for our 3 dogs, our cat, and even our fish, and we felt completely at ease the entire time. She sent consistent photo and text updates, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it easy to actually relax while we were away. She went above and beyond in so many ways that made a real difference. She washed her dishes, did the hand towels she used, took the time to get our cat’s fountain running again using somewhat tedious directions, and even handled cleaning up some unexpected basement flooding after a major storm. Everything was taken care of thoughtfully and without us having to worry. We came home to a house that looked and smelled incredible. It was spotless, organized, and she paid attention to the smallest details, like setting lights back exactly how we had left them. It genuinely felt like walking into a calm, cared-for space instead of coming home to a to-do list. This experience honestly felt so much better than having a friend or family member help out. There was no guilt, no worrying about being a burden, and no second guessing anything. Monica is clearly experienced and professional, and it shows in how smoothly everything was handled from start to finish. On top of everything else, she is just a genuinely kind, warm, and easy person to communicate with. I was honestly a little sad we didn’t get more time to be home and connect with her because she is such a joy to be around. We tried to make her feel welcome with snacks, cash, and a few small take-home gifts, but it still doesn’t feel like enough compared to the level of care she gave our home and our pets. Monica was truly a gift, and we will absolutely be rebooking with her any chance we get.”

“Lynn did an excellent job looking after our dogs while we were on a 7-day cruise for our honeymoon. The dogs were well cared for and happy when we returned. We appreciated the regular updates and photos. We would definitely use Lynn's services again and recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”

About: What sets me apart is heart-led care—personalized attention, reliable routines, and genuine love that makes every pet feel safe, happy, and at home. Rest assured your pet gets everything they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and individualized attention, ensuring each pet receives consistent care, supervision, and affection throughout the day. I offer a large, fully fenced backyard for plenty of safe roaming, a calm pet-only home with no other free roaming animals or children, and a clean, non-smoking environment.
“I am so grateful to Sarah for caring for my pack on the second 3 day block that I had been unable to locate a sitter. I wholeheartedly appreciated that she let me know of messes the middle sitter left and was willing to clean it all up! <3. One less thing I had to worry about upon return.”

About: I've had my own dogs for my whole entire life. I know that dogs need their daily exercise, and attention to make sure they are satisfied. I have watched my families dogs for many years whenever they go on trips. I understand dogs needs and how much attention a dog may take. I currently have a free schedule. I am working on getting a part time summer job while I am home from college. As of right now I do not have one and I am availaible anytime. I can easily travel to homes to help take care of dogs or walk them. I understand how important it is for dogs to be let out fed and exercised. I will ensure dogs are safely let out to use the restroom and they are on a leash if they need to be walked to ensure the safety of the dog and others.
“Courtney is wonderful! She had her hands full with Ruby a one year old Lab and Daisy a 16 year old chihuahua. We got daily updates of them playing and possibly not missing us as much as we missed them. Courtney was great and we can travel again knowing our fur babies will be spoiled with Courtney!”


“Ashely was incredible!!! She gave great updates and was very easy to communicate with. My dog loved her! She also took fantastic care of my apartment while I was gone. I will for sure be booking with Ashley again! Thanks for everything Ashley!!!”

About: I've had pets since I was 10. I have taken care of both cats and dogs. Friendly, conscientious, and thorough. Can't wait to walk new dogs/friends. I'm currently off of work for the summer as I teach full time during the school year. I am working on taking time for myself, exercising, and walking dogs. I take care of my pets by either crating them or leaving them in a bedroom when I am out and about. I have a crate for them to use.
About: I don't remember a time in my life when I wasn't surrounded with pets and animals. I grew up with three cats and a dog, had a few gerbals and hermit crabs, helped raise pythons, and get to enjoy dog kisses and and snuggles whenever I want from relative's pets. My grandparents live on a farm and love to help any of creatures us grandkids find. Animals are my passion! As a young entrepreneur trying to take my life and schedule into my own hands, Rover is the perfect way for pet owners to get thorough, compassionate care for their loved fur babies as well as help me attain more clients and doggo kisses for my already established pet sitting services.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets—dogs, cats, and small animals. From daily walks and feedings to administering medications and providing comfort, I’ve built trust with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their routine, understand their behavior, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you always feel connected. With school starting in August I will be available Thursday and any weekend. I will also be able to work with you during the weekday! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible—feeding them on schedule, giving plenty of love and attention, keeping their space clean, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I respect their environment and follow any specific instructions closely. While I don’t currently have a dog in my own home, that allows me to give your pet my full attention without distractions. My dog currently passed so we have an electric fence but that’s it! If your pet stays with me, they’ll have a clean, calm, pet-friendly space with lots of one-on-one care, playtime, and love. I’m all about making them feel at home—whether it’s their place or mine.
“I booked Maggie to stay at my house and take care of my two dogs while I was out of town. I didn't like the idea of kenneling them and liked the idea of having someone watch them at my house but was hesitant at first. I have never done this before. To say Maggie was awesome is an understatement. My dogs loved spending time with both Maggie and her dog Willow. The house was just as clean as it was when I left when I returned. She brought my garbage can back in after pick up. Got the mail and sent pics and videos. I think my pups miss her and Willow. I was so impressed I just booked for my next trip out of town.”
