“I’m a repeat client of Kelly, and I can’t say enough good things. My dog loves her and I know when I get back, my pup has been well loved. Kelly goes above and beyond not just with my dog but takes amazing care of my house while she stays.”


“I don’t think I can say enough good things about Ashley. She followed every bit of our babies’ routine so they felt comfortable, was so communicative to help soothe our stress of leaving them, and is just an overall kind and amazing person. We are so grateful to have found her and cannot recommend Ashley enough!!”


“London is AMAZING!!! She took care of Baxter and Boscoe like they are her own babies. She sent me tons of updates and pictures that showed me how much she cares. We will definitely be using London in the future!!!”


“Damian was fantastic with our pups and rabbit. He was responsive and shared daily pics/updates. He not only cared for our pets, but our house too!! We highly recommend working with him if you are looking for someone you can trust to take good care of your fur babies.”



“Jacob did everything we could ask for Nando and the house was in great shape when we got home. He kept us up to date on the goings on and we would definitely use Jacob next time we leave town without hesitation.”


“Leigha is amazing! You can tell that she really is a dog person at heart. We got daily updates as well as pictures often! She even taught our youngest dog to shake! It was great peace of mind leaving them in the comfort of their own home as my older dog is a bit anxious and doesn’t do well in new places! We will be returning clients of Leigha!”


About: I love taking care of animals during my free time I have recently babysat, family, and friends pets. My last roommate did have a dog that we both took care of together, and if I could have an animal I would, but I have a high potential moving as I am currently active duty military. I believe I am current on most stuff you would and wouldn’t do with dogs and cats. I have grown up with a lot of cats in my life so I feel I am very knowledgeable or as knowledgeable as I can be. I currently only work in the mornings between 6am-1pm Monday through Friday. But I am on call every other week so if extenuating situations happen, I could be called to work. I do have an apartment so my space isn’t as huge, but they would have free room depending on their temperament I am not one to create a dog that doesn’t wanna be created, but I know some puppies can’t hold their pee so I may avoid them in my personal room due to having carpet, but I will always gauge a situation before that as I would want said pet to be as comfortable as possible. And if I need to watch a pet at a client’s home, I would just wanna follow what the client would want I would never wanna put a dog in an uncomfortable situation

“Cory was very loving and caring for our two boys. This was our first trip witout the pups so, his twice a day messages and photos left us feeling very comfortable with his care. If you want someone to care for your animals, Cory is your man as he treated ours like they were his own. We highly recommend him!”


“Katherine was absolutely amazing. I have a medically complicated baby (meds 4x a day) + 2 kittens. (I’d also just recently lost my 2 elder babies so to say I was both stressed and nervous about leaving them is an understatement). She was understanding and communicative. Also I felt so safe about her staying out my house. No issues. 10/10 recommend. & if I need a sitter again in the future, I will absolutely be contacting her.”


“Amazing! Gave us such relief about our fur babies being cared for while we were on a longer Europe trip! Definitely recommend. Sends updates and photos, which are so appreciated. My dogs LOVED her.”



“This was the first time we were away from our 7 month old kitten for any length of time, and the thought of her being alone except for a daily drop-in broke my heart. I looked for someone who would be willing to stay in our house with her and give her as much love and attention as we would. Kristi went above and beyond our expectations! Not only did she make Anya home made treats, but she took her to a follow up appointment at the vet, gave her her medicine and washed our bedding at the end of the week! Kristi sent us daily updates and pictures of our girl and it was clear that our baby was loved and happy. We will definitely use Kristi again and recommend her to everyone!”



“Megan is amazing! We will continue to hire her if she has availability! She goes out of her way to make sure everyone is taken care of, and does a great job communicating updates and sending photos throughout the stay. THANK YOU MEGAN! You make leaving my babies so much easier.”


“Amy was AMAZING with our girls! I was nervous about leaving them for the first time but she made it much easier. Amy is officially our "go to" sitter... We have even recommended her to our friends and neighbors!”


“Ashley did a great job caring for our 3 large dogs and sent photos throughout the day letting us know what the dogs had going on. Awesome experience having her as our pet sitter!”


About: I am in my mid-30s and have always had a dog as a pet for as long as I can remember. I also have experience working with a specific company, fostering many anxious dogs in the past. My furbaby, Frankie, whom I fostered and ended up adopting, has recently passed away (Devastated). That said, I wanted to reopen my Rover page to accept one dog boarding at a time. If you're very particular about who watches your dog, or your dog doesn't get along with other dogs, or they are just over-anxious and need special attention, I'm your girl. I am only boarding 1 dog at a time. I will give all my time and love to your furbaby! Also, accepting local drop-ins!! I have a personal business I run from home and i'm home all day. I do not have kids or any other animals at the moment. I would love to spend time with your pet, while your away! They are my number 1 priority while I am with your pet, like they are my own. I form quick bonds with animals and have amazing amounts of compassion for animals. They are my kids, i do not have any children.

About: Pets have always been part of my life — from my family’s Cockapoo to our Maltese/Yorkie mix, plus a few cat-sitting adventures for friends. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. Whether it’s a walk, a feeding, or quiet time, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in capable and caring hands I work from home and have a schedule to take care of a pet any time of day. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I follow your instructions closely to maintain their comfort and well-being. I understand the importance of consistent routines, safety, and trust. I would offer care for pets in my home on exception basis due to limited yard space.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and a variety of pets ever since I was a child. I have taken care of pets in a variety of ages, such as senior dogs as well as puppies and kittens. I have a very flexible schedule and am available most of the day, though, when classes start I may not be able to do as much in the mornings. I have taken care of dogs that don’t have a backyard and have to be taken on walks, as well as taken care of dogs in homes with a backyard.

About: Lifelong dog owner and lover of animals. I will care for your fur baby like he or she were my own. Potty trained 2 puppy litters. I work full time so my best availability is on weekends and weekdays any time after 5. I can do afternoon walks if close by. I have a friendly Jack Russel that loves to make friends and play. We will make your fur baby feel at home away from home

William U.
“Animals have always flocked to Xander. He is like a dog whisperer! Xander has so much compassion and patience for dogs and cats, both young and old. No doubt he will care for anyone's pet just as he cares for his own.”


Tamar C.Star Sitter
“As everyone knows it's not easy to take care of animals. Let alone dogs. Its very demanding and requires an exponential amount of patience and care and I can confidently say that is Tamar. She had an instant loving connection with my cat who struggles with anxiety severely with new company. She continuously shares funny stories about her experiences with her own dog who is the best groomed, and behaved dog I have ever met. Its almost like her and her dog are a pairing set together haha! She has been trusted numerous amounts of times with others animals and you don't leave your fur baby with just anyone. She takes time out of her day to anything she can for any animal she meets whether it is hers or not, including offering some of her own pets accessories for other animals in someone else care to be well taken care of. She cares and she cares deeply. This is the right person to trust with anyone's animals. I believe that whole heartedly.”
