âDiane was so kind and wonderful with our senior dog. She made such an effort to get to know us and our dogâs needs. She communicated clearly throughout her short stay. We canât wait to book her again!â

âWe couldnât have asked for a better pet sitter than Brian! He stayed at our home for a full week while we were away and took amazing care of our two pets â our cat, who requires daily medication, and our older French bulldog. Both animals were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved when we returned.â

âMonica is an outstanding sitter! I was in the hospital having a baby and was experiencing so much stress finding a trustworthy person to watch my senior pit bull in my home. He cannot be boarded or crated. My dog has separation anxiety and Monica knew how to calm him because of her experience working at a vet. Unexpectedly, my daughter needed to stay in the hospital and Monica was flexible and understanding. You are a life saver! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking great care of my dog-son.â

âMiguel is an amazing petsitter and great human being!! He helped me out on short notice, being extremely communicative, thoughtful, and detail oriented in his care for my pets. I highly recommend him to other pet owners looking for someone who enjoys energetic animals like my two border collies. Thanks again Miguel!â


âGail was amazing with our 3 dogs! She was very communicative and sent a bunch of pictures. She was patient and gentle with our very fearful and nervous dog. We came back to a house that was cleaner and looked better than before we left. She even had dinner waiting for us which was such a sweet surprise after a long day of travel. And of course, our pups were happy as could be when we got home! Weâll definitely use Gail again.â

âWe had Cheryl watch our senior dog, who had only ever been left overnight with family before, so I was definitely a bit nervous. Cheryl was absolutely wonderful and put my mind at ease right away. She took such great care of our dog and kept us consistently updated, which meant so much to us. We could not be happier with the experience and will definitely be using Cheryl again in the future. Highly recommend!â

About: Iâve cared for 7 dogs and 2 cats throughout their full life span, from puppyhood and kittenhood to senior years, including pets with special senior care needs. Iâm confident handling large dogs and focus on structured walks, mental stimulation, and enriching playtime. As a psychotherapist, patience, intuition, and compassionate care come naturally to me. My schedule is very flexible I'm currently part time and work from home. I can be available on notice from 9am-10pm. I am able to do daily and weekly care/walking/play. I have a fenced yard. Two cats who are used to visitors and other animals. I can also crate animal if requested, use baby fence and adapt to living requirements specific to client needs.
âWe had a wonderful experience with Ariel! She was extremely responsive and communicative throughout our time away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She took excellent care of our animals and treated our home with great care as well. Everything was just as we left it, and our pets were clearly happy and well-loved. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful pet sitter and absolutely plan to use her services again.â

âAndrea was great with our pup! She kept him company while we were away and he was always happy to see her. We received many updates and pics and will definitely be using her in the future.â

âI couldnât be happier with Tetianaâs services. I felt at ease knowing my pets were well taken care of. She kept me informed of anything out of the ordinary with my pets and she shared pictures and videos which reassured me that all my little ones were enjoying her company. I was really surprised to see my two most timid kittens warm up to her and be out of hiding while she was here. Normally those same two kittens hide until strangers leave my house even with me around. So that just made me feel at ease, all the pets loved her and felt comfortable enough to be out and spend time with her.â

âMalcolm is very flexible and punctual! He gave our dogs so much attention and love. I have a reactive and anxious dog I was very worried of being away from, but she loved him and did well. He provides thorough updates and is detailed. Would recommend for dog walks and house sitting needs!â

About: Iâm fully insured to make sure your pet and your home are always safe and protected. Iâve had pets in my life for as long as I can remember, and taking care of them has always felt natural to me. Since I was a teenager (Iâm 31 now), Iâve looked after dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors, and Iâve loved every minute of it. Ever since I was a kid, Iâve just really cherished being around animals, even the ones who arenât super cuddly. I have a lot of patience and respect for each petâs personality and comfort level, and I do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for while their people are away. I work full time during the week and try to stay busy on the weekend, but I will absolutely work my weekend schedule around you/your petâs needs. I have a big fenced backyard and plenty of space inside for house-trained pets to relax, whether thatâs on the couch, a comfy chair, or the floor. I share my home with one dog, a terrier mix named Minnie. Sheâs playful and friendly, but if your dog prefers to keep to themselves, I can easily keep them separated. Older dogs sometimes find her a bit too energetic, while younger pups usually have a great time playing with her.
âJamie watched our 2 dogs and cat at our house for us and made us feel relaxed and confident knowing they were being well taken care of. She provided updates and photos and was very communicative. We will definitely ask Jamie to sit for our pets again.â


âAnnie pet sat for us just for one night and she was great! She is very friendly and good with dogs. She sent us lots of pictures of our pets during her stay, which put us at ease that they were doing great and in good company. Definitely recommend Annie!â

About: I have had a dog in the house since I was born. I started helping out with the caring for them at around 10 and have done so ever since. I have a Jack-Russel and Chihuahua mix. She is a very shy dog and we have had to do a lot of training with her so I understand how to handle shy dogs. I know that dogs do enjoy being off leash so I would try to incorporate that into a walk if a long one is needed. Such as a large park or a fenced in one. For drop in visits I would stay for a long enough time to make your pet feel at ease, but not too long as to overstay my welcome.
âAbigail was amazing with our two small dogs! She was super communicative, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Highly recommend!â
âThanks Mari! Our babes and home were well taken care of during our 12 day trip. She was communicative and very caring. Will definitely continue to rely on Mari for our pet and house sitting needs.â
âDorota and Olivia did a fantastic job taking care of our little guy! They stayed over at our house and made sure our dog was well taken care of. They communicated promptly and sent lots of pictures during the stay. We canât wait to book again!â

âOdalys was great! She was upfront and has great communication skills. She always replied when I reached out to her and she sent us pupdates ! Our dogs loved her! You can tell sheâs an animal lover. We will definitely be booking her again. Thanks Odalys !â

âThis is the first time we booked a House Sitting through Rover so we were a little nervous entrusting our two dogs and home to someone's care. From the time we met Elizabeth (Betsy), she alleviated our concerns. She is a gentle, kind and compassionate soul who immediately built rapport with us and our two beloved dogs. While we were away, Betsy, continually provided updates, including videos and pictures of our dogs. Betsy provided a caring and nurturing environment for our dogs, as well as took great care and respect of our home. I HIGHLY recommend Betsy to anyone who is considering a dog sitter. We will utilize Betsy for all of our dog care needs. She is the ultimate professional!â

Ola was wonderful with my two critters. Both were perfectly chill when I came back a day early due to weather. Ola is a very calming presence which is exactly what keeps my Sunny girl and Tank the cat relaxed. Thanks so much Ola and I hope to work with you again. Happy Holidays!
Vito was absolutely wonderful with our two Frenchies, Talula and Bruce! đž He stayed in our home for 4 nights and cared for both our pups and our space with kindness and respect. He kept us updated daily with pictures and videos, and went above and beyond feeding, playing, grooming, and loving on them. Our dogs were happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. Weâre truly grateful and highly recommend Vito!

We are so grateful to Anthony for spending the weekend with our Sophie. She's a great judge of character and she took to him immediately. All the neighbors have commented on how well he worked with her and how happy she seemed. We will unquestionably rely on Anthony in the future. He is marvelous!

Mariana was fantastic with my three dogs! She was responsive, reliable, and very easy to work with. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. I would absolutely have her stay with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.

Ashleyâs daily presence in our home during our recent vacation was a great comfort to us and our crew of three dogs. We our so thankful that she made our trip possible and free of a concern about our dogsâ welfare. They adore her and were so happy that she got to have an extended sleepover!
We couldnât have asked for a better pet sitter than Brian! He stayed at our home for a full week while we were away and took amazing care of our two pets â our cat, who requires daily medication, and our older French bulldog.
