“This is the second time Annabeth has watched our rescue pets. We have 5 so we know that can be a lot and all have unique personalities/needs so it is helpful to have hired someone who understands and can be patient with our pets. We see Annabeth as family.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, including large breeds, multi-pet households, and pets with special routines or medication needs. I’m very detail-oriented and understand how important consistency, patience, and safety are when caring for someone else’s pets. I’m comfortable with: Large and strong dogs Senior pets and slower-paced care Administering medications Feeding schedules and special instructions Crate routines and potty breaks Multi-pet households Providing calm, patient care for anxious pets What sets me apart is my reliability and communication. I know pet owners want peace of mind while they’re away, so I make sure to provide regular updates, photos, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs and personality. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat just needs a calm and caring check-in, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m able to provide dependable walks and drop-in visits throughout the week from 4pm-9pm and any time during the weekend. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so I make time for personalized care, exercise, feeding routines, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship based on each pet’s needs. I’m organized, flexible, and understand the importance of consistency and punctuality when caring for pets. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in during the workday or a longer visit with extra attention and exercise, I’m happy to help provide reliable care and routine while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow feeding instructions, walk schedules, medication routines, crate preferences, and any household rules to help pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. Safety is always my top priority during walks and drop-in visits. I pay close attention to leash handling, surroundings, weather conditions, and each pet’s comfort level and behavior. I’m especially mindful with large dogs, anxious pets, and multi-pet households to ensure everyone stays safe and calm. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are being well cared for while they’re away.
“Kelsey watched our kitties for the second time recently and she was excellent as usual! She alleviates every worry we have when we leave our two cats. I would recommend her to anyone!”

About: Hi, I’m Katie. I’m a college student and I don’t have many years of experience, but I’m looking to gain some. I’m probably the biggest pet person you’ll ever meet and I hope I can help you and your dog or cat. I currently am a college student and I don’t have a summer job or anything so I’m just looking for something to do on the side and keep me busy and something that will fit my schedule while also enjoying time with animals I have a fenced in yard with a boxer half lab who is very friendly with medium to small size dogs and does well with cats. I’m looking to make sure the owner is happy but even more to make sure their pet is happy.
“Ashley did a great job watching our pups. Communication was fantastic… pics and texts, as we’d discussed up front. She even checked on our chickens when the weather became unseasonably warm! Thanks Ashley!”

“Missy is an absolute angel and spoiled my babies! She not only took such great care of my dogs, but my house and I felt safe knowing she was here taking care of things. She's an excellent communicator and really went above and beyond. I can't recommend her enough!”

“Destiny was great staying with our two dogs and two cats, one of the cats recently started living with us after my father passed away, so she is a nervous cat with all the changes. She worked around our pets' schedule, sent updates and pictures, and let us know when she was leaving. One of my cats got a little sore under his eye while we were gone. Destiny sent us a pic, asking if this was common and treated him with ointment after we spoke. When we came home, everything looked like we left it and our pets were happy and healthy. Will definitely book Destiny again.”

About: I’ve cared for newborn puppies on multiple occasions, so I’m no stranger to tiny paws and big responsibility. I bring patience, love, and plenty of cuddles to every pet I care for. Caring for pets is part of my normal day-to-day life. I enjoy building my routine around their needs, whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, or extra cuddle time. My own pets are cared for with a mix of routine, enrichment, and lots of love (okay… maybe a little spoiling). I stay attentive to their needs, moods, and habits, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I sit.

“Dawn was great with our furbabies! She made sure to keep us updated with photos and messages throughout our time away. We did not have to worry that they were not being properly cared for while gone.”

About: I’ve had experience with all types of animals from guinea pigs to horses! Being around animals has always been a must for me and continues to be a reason why I love life! I’m currently working part time while also juggling part time in school for nursing!! I’m pretty free throughout the week, and would love to make some summer money for school!! I make sure my cat has a strict schedule for feeding and even she knows it haha! My aunt is a vet and has taught me everything I need to know when taking care of animals!
“Polina was wonderful! She asked questions for clarification. She sent plenty of pictures of the dogs throughout her stay. Very pleasant and our dogs loved her. Highly recommend.”

“Courtney is absolutely amazing with our two dogs! She provides exceptional care and always keeps us in the loop with adorable photos and thoughtful updates. We’ve booked with her multiple times already and will definitely continue using her for all of our dog-sitting needs. I can’t recommend her highly enough!”

“Brittany took great care of our 3 active dogs and two cats. We care mostly about the care of our pets. It is nice to have someone who will stay at your home so your pets don't have to be stressed not to mention the personal stress of transporting them to a kennel. She threw frisbee with the dogs every day and sent photos every evening. She took care of them right after the only rain this summer and took the time and effort to give them a bath. We will happily use Brittany again to take care of our pets and home.”


About: I have primarily pet sat for cat owners over the past 6 years, but have at least 15 years of experience in owning multiple medium size dogs. I am well accustomed to large breed dogs as well as smaller breeds and love to sit for multiple at a time! I currently work full time in Eden Park, so as long as your home is within 30 minutes of my drive to work I can stop home at my lunch to let them outside. Otherwise, they will be let out immediately following me getting there. I care for pets as if they were my own. I ensure they are supervised as well as loved and cared for in the time I am there. My full attention is on your pets and their needs.
“Sean not only watched our two goldens in our home but also our neighbors two goldens who were leaving town the same time as us. Four dogs can be a little intimidating to some people, but we think Sean took very great care of them! Every single one of them got multiple walks, including our two dogs who had to be walked individually. We came back to four happy dogs and a home that was respected while we were gone. He also made sure to keep us in constant communication. We will definitely be using him again.”

“Hailey provided overnight dog sitting services for my 4 labs and did absolutely amazing. She sent regular pictures and updates throughout the stay for reassurance. I would highly recommend her!”

“this was our first time booking through rover. I was hesitant to trust a "stranger" with our dogs and in our house. also the investment in the dog sitting was a steep cost. but! IT WAS WORTH IT. I came home to happy dogs, clean house (our dogs have accidents) and updates along the way. one of our dogs is older and she was well taken care of based on her appearance coming home. Lux will be our regular sitter -if he will have us :) I highly recommend him!”
