“Jess and Scott are always our first stop for watching our pup! We have been taking him to them since we got him as a puppy and could not reccomend them enough. Kind people who want nothing more than to make sure your dog is loved and cared for, while still having a lot of fun while doing it. Great people!”

14. Mary S.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. Friends and family have relied on me for pet sitting whenever they are out of town. I currently work full-time Hybrid. I work from home Mondays and Fridays. During this time I can provide care specific to your pet and their needs. I can provide potty breaks every 0-2 hours at least. I have a giant fully fenced back yard and 2 friendly dogs. One dog prefers more to watch the other dogs play while the other dog loves to be in all the action!


15. Lydia G.

“Super friendly and caring for my pup! She sent pictures and updates whenever I asked.”


16. Andrew & Jackson G.
“Andrew is our go-to to watch our dog, Sully, when we’re out of town. He loves dogs and treats our Sully like he’s his own! We get many pictures from Andrew while we’re away and know Sully is being taken well care of. Andrew has always taken great care of Sully and I would highly recommend Andrew to anyone needing a dog sitter! He’s the absolute best!”

“I wholeheartedly recommend Sara H. as a caregiver for your furry baby. She provided exceptional care for my giant schnauzer, and for that, we will be forever grateful. Sara is not just a pet sitter; she genuinely loves and understands animals. Her own furry baby is a testament to her dedication—extremely well cared for and loved. You can rest assured that your pet will be in the best hands possible with Sara. She’s attentive, loving, and treats every animal as if they were her own. Your furry companion will be safe, happy, and well-cared for under Sara's watch.”


19. Rachel B.
“Rachel took care of my 2 month old German shepherd for 2 months. I would drop him off in the morning on my way to work with her and she helped get him potty trained and it helped that she had her dog at home to introduce him to socialize with other dogs. She did such a great job and highly recommend anyone as she is great with animals!”


20. Morgan H.
“Morgan is the ultimate dog lover and has never met one she doesn’t like. If she comes across a dog while we are out, she always has to stop and ask if she can give the pup some love. I have seen first hand how caring she is with animals and always gives them all her attention. Morgan is extremely prompt, responsible, and organized. She would be the ultimate Rover employee!”
