“This was our first time having a house + dog sitter while we were out of town several days - I had actually posted it as a drop-in (several times/day but no overnight), but Kimberly impressed me by suggesting that SHE would prefer that it be a house-sitting situation (because it would be preferred for the dogs AND be especially convenient for her). I was honestly not excited about the dogs being by themselves for such long stretches already, so readily agreed. The first time we met, the dogs were immediately at-ease with Kim, and she asked some astute questions (such as - how will they do with any fireworks that might be going off for New Years?) that put me also at ease. While we were gone, we got daily updates about their 'activities' as well as a few pics of the dogs doing their normal things, obviously very comfortable. She left the house in pristine (well, as pristine as she found it lol) condition. Would absolutely recommend Kim for your dog - and house - sitting!”

“Sarah was so helpful. She followed our dogs schedule, dealt with an unexpected house issue (fire alarm beeping), and cleaned up before she left. It was so nice to come home to a well cared for pup and clean house!”

“My dogs were well taken care of and my house looked the same as when i left. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! I will definitely reach out again to book Katelyn P!”

About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life and always enjoyed learning their unique personalities and social hierarchies. I am still (forever) mourning the loss of my childhood dogs and funnel my love for them towards any dog I encounter. I was a 4Paws sitter in college, so I have experience with socializing puppies and some basic training, while adapting to the dog's different ages. I have a cat of my own that I love like my own human child, and I spread that care and joy to any kitty I encounter! I am currently very flexible as I am new to the area and between jobs. I have the time to show your pet the care and love that it needs while you are gone! I have my own car so I can easily travel to care for multiple pets if necessary. My yard is not entirely fenced in, but there is grass in the back and front. I have one cat in my home, so I require cat-friendly dogs that can ideally be crated for short periods if needed. As far as other cats, I know it can be situational, but I do have the space to keep the cats separated to begin with/ the whole visit if necessary. All of our indoor plants are pet-friendly as well!
“Konnie was awesome!! So professional so and sweet. She has such a love for animals. Would highly recommend!! Thank you so much Konnie for taking such good care of Yogi and the house ❤️❤️❤️”

“Amina was amazing with our two girls! We were out of town for 4 days and she stayed at our house to take care of our babies. Usually our youngest is really nervous around new people, but she took to Amina right away. I received daily pics and updates, which made me feel better. We will definitely use her again!”


“Abby did so well with my quiet and anxious pup! I was in a pinch to find a last minute sitter and Abby hit it out of the park. She sent us lots of photo updates and I always knew my dog was in good hands.”

“Tabbi was great with my little Nahla! Everything was left just as it was when I left you could hardly tell she was there 😀 Will definitely book with her again.”

“We did not know Tara before our trip, and I was a little nervous about leaving our pets with someone new. But I didn’t need to be. She did a wonderful job taking care of our beloved dog, and our bunny, and kept us updated on how they were doing, as we had asked - which allowed me to relax and have a nice time away. I highly recommend her!”

“Dave took the time to meet with my dogs 3 times before coming to house sit for a weekend to make sure both dogs were comfortable with him staying. Dave handled both rescue Germans shepherds greatly! He even came back when my travel plans changed to make sure the dogs got dinner and night time exercise.”

“What an absolute pleasure it was to have our dogs loved and cared for while we traveled. Breyeanna gave us frequent updates and sent wonderful photos. Our dogs are not friendly with strangers and Breyeanna became family to them. We were thrilled with the outcome. Thank you so much for caring for our dogs.”

About: I have had dogs since I was little and love playing with them and taking care of them. I’m an athletic person so if the dog is in the mood to play, I can certainly be a great playmate! I have experience with dog sitting overnight, dog walking, and drop-in visits. I work at a nursing home, but I get to choose the shifts I pick up, so my schedule can be very flexible. I am looking for more pups to help out! I can provide overnight care at the owners home. While I am there, I make sure to take your dog for walks, play outside, and give lots of rubs and cuddles. As a person, I am very low maintenance, so you won’t have to provide hardly anything if come care for your pups overnight.
“This was our first time using Rover, and honestly, we were a little hesitant about trusting the process. We've used boarding facilities in the past, and unfortunately those experiences didn't go well due to a lack of supervision and care. Halle completely set our mind to ease from day one. She was phenomenal from the start—attentive, communicative, and incredibly flexible when we accidentally mixed up some dates. She always kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our boy, Stirling, is a high-energy husky who requires patience, understanding, and someone willing to keep up with him. Halle handled him like a champ. She treated him with genuine compassion and care, and it was clear she took the time to understand his personality and needs. The biggest testament to how wonderful she is is Stirling's reaction to her. He gets excited every time she comes over, and after her visits, he'll sit by the windowsill waiting for her to come back. That's all the confirmation we need that he loves her just as much as we do. We can't recommend Halle highly enough. She is trustworthy, caring, reliable, and truly exceptional with dogs. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”

“Took great care of my cat (Coco) and turtle (Myrtle). Even went to extra efforts to make sure Coco got her meds in a timely manner. I'll be hiring Nathan again in the near future!”

“Monica did a great job with our seven month old Great Dane. She cared for her while we were out of town for the week. We got regular updates, she remained in contact throughout the week, and provided great one on one time with our puppy.”


About: My family has always had animals, and I've always loved taking care of them. Dogs, cats, birds, the whole nine yards. I've been around pure-breds, mutts, strays, elderly animals, young animals, a whole range, and I've always been very close with all of them. The most direct experience I've ever had was helping raise and train my mother's dog Ivan, a big American Bulldog with German Shepherd and Siberian Husky heritage, from near-birth to nine years old. Beyond that, I've helped care for my grandmother's many dogs, including Jasper, who is pictured in my profile picture. I'm currently on summer break between my Junior and Senior year of college, so I have plenty of time to care for animals at most points during the week. I generally like to keep Sundays and Mondays open, but I'm otherwise totally free to work. I'm a fairly relaxed pet owner myself, but I know when animals need to be taken seriously. As someone who helped raise a moderately antisocial 100 lbs. dog once, I know it's not all sunshine and rainbows. That being said, I'm more than loving and compassionate, and will do everything in my power to make sure your animals feel loved and cared for when I'm with them.
“Zoey was wonderful, both my cats warmed right up to her even my shy boy! She was super communicative and did a great job with my cats I will definitely rebook with her and would absolutely recommend her as a sitter!”

Halle took great care of my dog, Otto, while I was away for five days. Otto liked her immediately, and she was very thoughtful and attentive to his recent post-surgery needs. She kept me updated, and I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. I would definitely trust her to watch Otto again and highly recommend her.

Keerie was an amazing drop in sitter. I contacted her very last minute for an emergency sitting and she was able to show up 3 times on the same day I asked her and drop in 3 times per day for the whole weekend. She provided picture updates and kept me updated about my babies while I was out of town. She was so empathetic for my situation and I couldn't recommend her enough!

Our pets absolutely adore Cassie! She is the absolute best with any animals she’s ever with! She excels in folllwoing instructions, taking cute pictures of the pets, and giving them the best cuddles! She’s been watching our pets for the last few years now, and we always know our house/pets will be in good order when she’s here. We will be using her plenty more times in the future, and are so thankful to have her!

Bridget was absolutely amazing, kind, and loving with our anxious girl, Maple. We were nervous to leave Maple while we left the state to visit family, but with having Bridget caring for our dog, those fears were quickly squashed. She provided daily updates and pictures on how things were going, took her for walks, and treated Maple as if she were her own pet. She also took great care of our home, and left a care plan at the end of her stay to give us even more insight into what Maple's days looked like while we were gone. I will 100% be rebooking with Bridget in the future and am so grateful for her!

Jake was the best! I was super nervous to leave my dogs for almost an entire week, especially because one of them has health issues and dog aggression. Jake did a great job reassuring me prior to and throughout my trip that my dogs were in the best of care. He gave regular updates, responded quickly, great communication, brought our mail in, and even left a note welcoming us home. Highly recommend!

This was our first time using Rover. Rebecca, came over to meet our pups and discuss expectations prior too us hiring her. She was very kind and our pups took to her immediately. She stayed in our home for 4 days. She provided updates while we were gone along with pictures. When we arrived home the dogs were very happy and excited. Rebecca took great care of them and our home. It looked exactly as we left it. I will be using Rebecca again for future travel. She did am amazing job.

Scott and Samantha are wonderful and cared for my 7 month old pup like she was their own! I was nervous about having to leave Corvi for a business trip since she is still so young, but they were very communicative and sent a ton of updates and pictures. I came home to a very happy and tired pup! Will DEFINITELY use them again and highly recommend!
