Angie was absolutely fabulous with our pup! She was so caring, sent plenty of adorable updates, and treated Maisy like her own. It was clear our dog loved her, too! Without a doubt, we’d love to book with Angie again. Thank you for taking such great care of our pup and our apartment!

I am so glad that I gave Rover a try. It was so easy to use. Chandler was great and you can tell that she loves dogs. It was really nice to be able to spend the day out with my family and know that our dogs were safe and taken care of!

Belen is a phenomenal pet sitter! She watched Bocce for a week+ while I was visiting family in California. Because Bocce has epilepsy, finding the right care is crucial, and she handled his strict medication schedule flawlessly. Belen exceeded all expectations. She was diligent, communicative, and incredibly caring. I could actually enjoy my trip knowing Bocce was in safe hands. Thank you, Belen!

About: I provide dependable, high-touch pet care with a strong focus on safety, structure, and communication. With years of experience caring for dogs through personal, family, and friend settings, I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, overnight stays, and keeping pets calm and happy in their normal routine. My hospitality management background means I bring a professional, service-first mindset to every booking, including timely updates and photo check-ins. Caring for pets fits seamlessly into my weekly routine because I intentionally build my schedule around being dependable and on time. I’m very organized and make sure each booking has dedicated time for walks, feeding, play, and updates so every pet receives focused attention and consistency. My routine allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and flexible weekend availability. Safety, trust, and consistency are my top priorities in both my home and my client’s home. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, triggers, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions before every booking so I can keep their environment as familiar and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow all routines exactly as requested, including walks, feeding times, medications, crate use, and house rules. I always double-check doors, leashes, gates, and entry points to ensure pets remain secure at all times. If caring for pets in my home, I maintain a clean, calm, pet-safe environment with plenty of supervision, fresh water, safe spaces to rest, and structured play and potty breaks. I avoid exposing pets to unsafe foods, objects, or stressful situations and make sure they are never left unattended in a way that could put them at risk. I also provide regular updates and photo check-ins so pet parents always know their pet is safe, happy, and receiving attentive care.

Levi was AMAZING! We were so lucky she had availability when we booked last minute. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and their behaviors while being very patient and understanding with our nervous rescue. She sent many pictures to keep us at ease while we were away and left the house cleaner than when we left! Chanel typically doesn’t clique with new people but she was so happy with Levi, we are so appreciative!

About: I have been a pet sitter for a couple years! Also, I have volunteered and interned at a veterinary hospital these experiences helped me become more informed on pet care. My main priority is providing your pet with the best care!! I will clean water bowl, provide fresh food and any further needs . I currently work a full time job but typically free Monday anytime before 8am and then again after 6:30pm, Tuesday and Thursday anytime from 9-11:30am and then again after 4pm, Wednesday, and Friday anytime from 7-1:30pm. For Saturday anytime in the day works for me and for Sunday anytime before 6am and then again at 3:30pm. My main priority is comfort making sure you are comfortable with entrusting your pet in my care and making sure your pet is comfortable with me. I will do this by allowing the pet to become familiar with me so they aren’t scared and providing treats as well as playful sessions to get them comfortable.

An amazing sitter! Ana Sofia checked in regularly, and sent pictures along with a daily summary. I felt very sure all of our animals were in great hands. One of my cats was prescribed an oral medication and Ana Sofia was able to continue with the treatment plan while I was gone. I will be returning for future pet sitting needs!

Cynthia watched our 2 Boxer pups in our home over the weekend. She sent pictures regularly and our pups seemed to really like her. She left our home in the same manner it had been when she got there and cleaned up after herself. She was a great guest and dog sitter. We have already booked with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.

Cyn took excellent care of our 3 small dogs in our home while we were away on a 5 day trip. Our Morkie takes awhile to warm up to strangers but Cyn was eventually able to get her to go on walks with the rest of the pack. We received updates and photos every day, walks to the nearby park and throwing the ball for our mini Aussie (sorry he doesn't retrieve the ball!). While our dogs were excited to see us return, they went right back to their normal behavior soon after. This is the main reason we hired Cyn to stay in our home and know she took special care of our loved ones. Upon picking up our mini aussie after boarding with a local business, he was "shell shocked" for a day or 2 after which is exactly why we are so grateful to have found Cyn as a caretaker.

She left the house clean and even washed the sheets she slept on. She was very responsive and communicative with me throughout the whole four day house sitting visit. I would recommend her as your next sitter.
