“It felt so easy having you watch my dog. My dog is an insecure dog and Gabi took her on so well. She provided plenty of updates to keep me in the loop. She went above and beyond taking my dog for walks when she normally just goes out back. When I got my dog back I noticed she was better behaved. I will be hiring Gabi again.”

“Stephanie was so wonderful with my dogs. She was very communicative and sent pictures and let me know everything she was doing. It’s so appreciated when you leave your babies at home with someone new. She also left my home probably cleaner than I left it which was very sweet and thoughtful. I would definitely use Stephanie again.”

“Ariel was great with Gemma for the long weekend I was away. She even stayed longer on the last day when my flight was delayed. I hope she will watch Gemma all the time!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and personal experience with animals. I’ve had dogs before and currently care for my own cats, so I understand the daily responsibility, attention, and patience pets need to feel safe and happy. I’m very attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine, whether that means giving extra playtime, maintaining feeding schedules, or creating a calm environment for more sensitive pets. I also understand how to handle both energetic pets and those that need a gentler, more relaxed approach. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, cared for, and loved—just like they would at home. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I already care for my own cats every day, so feeding schedules, cleaning, playtime, and attention are things I consistently prioritize. I plan my schedule to make sure pets receive timely care, whether that’s morning and evening visits, walks, or check-ins throughout the day. Because I’m used to building my routine around animals, I’m reliable and organized when it comes to maintaining their habits and keeping them comfortable. Pet care isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make time for every day. I provide attentive and personalized care whether I’m in my home or my client’s home. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions—so they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m also respectful of the home, keeping everything clean and organized while ensuring the pet’s safety at all times. In my home, I create a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection. I make sure they have a clean space, consistent routines, and lots of care tailored to their needs and personality.
“This weekend Carolina stayed with my pets for the first time and I’m very pleased with the outcome. I travel quite a bit, but was apprehensive to trust a new sitter with my pets after my previous sitter (which started off good) left a Very bad taste in my mouth and has made it difficult for me to warm up to the idea again. But Carolina was very communicative, and her regular updates kept me from feeling anxious about the new arrangement. She made a concerted effort to make my pets feel at ease and comfortable, and sticking with their usual routines. (One of my cats is especially frightful. He’s a rescue and has found it difficult to trust most humans. He’s occasionally even still skittish around me. But she took her time with him and coaxed away his fears). Additionally, Carolina was very respectful of my home - stripped the bed, collected sheets /towels for laundry, ran the dishwasher, etc. Exactly how you would want your home treated while you’re away. I would absolutely recommend Carolina, and definitely intend to work with her again in the future.”

“Sara watched our two kitties for an entire week. It was beyond helpful and awesome. She was able to keep me at ease. She communicated with me the entire time. As well as before the trip. You can tell she is incredibly comfortable taking care of animals. Our house was left clean, our kitties were happy and safe. Highly recommend!! Thank u thank u Sara!!”

“Julie did an amazing job. I am a new rover customer and my experience with Julie was incredible. She took time to let us know of our expectations with her service.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life — I’ve grown up surrounded by all kinds of pets, from rabbits and turtles to macaws, cats, and dogs. Beyond that, I’ve also spent time caring for cattle, which taught me patience, consistency, and respect for animals of all sizes. As an architecture student, I’m detail-oriented, responsible, and observant — qualities that carry over into how I care for every pet I meet. I’m also very active and love spending time outdoors, making me a great fit for energetic dogs who need long walks, playtime, or just a good adventure. What sets me apart is my genuine connection with animals and my ability to adapt to their personalities whether that means keeping up with a playful puppy, giving extra attention to a senior pet, or maintaining routines that keep them comfortable and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. Between my studies in architecture and staying active, I make time each day to walk, feed, and play with my own pets two cats and three Maine Coons. Caring for animals keeps me grounded and gives structure to my day. I love starting mornings with walks or playtime and checking in on pets throughout the day to make sure they’re comfortable and happy. On weekends, I’m usually outdoors or spending extra time with my pets, which makes adding client visits or walks fit perfectly into my schedule. Being around animals isn’t a chore for me it’s something that keeps my days joyful, balanced, and full of good energy. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I make sure every environment is clean, calm, and free from hazards from securing doors and gates to keeping personal items and food safely out of reach. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I give my own. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding routines to medication schedules, and keep consistent communication so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for. I also take time to build trust with each animal letting them approach at their own pace, observing their body language, and ensuring they always feel safe and understood. My goal is to create a familiar, stress-free experience that keeps pets happy and owners worry-free.
“Sofia was amazing with our 2 dogs. They both adored her! She sent many pictures and updates during the stay which calmed our nerves about being away from them. Would definitely book her again!!!”

“Kendall was very communicative and took great care of my 2 cats on a recent visit. She even proactively offered up to stop by for another drop in/feeding session to work with my travel schedule. Also doesn’t hurt that she takes pretty awesome pictures of pets!”

About: I’ve grown up around a variety of pets, from dogs to bunnies, so I’m very comfortable reading their behavior and making them feel at ease. I’m patient, attentive, and used to working in homes where pets are part of the family. My experience with house cleaning also means I’m respectful of your space and detail-oriented. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind. I’m currently in school part time and also work part time, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of availability throughout the week to dedicate to pet care, whether it’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I’m able to adjust my routine to meet your pet’s specific needs and make sure they get consistent, reliable care. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking to their usual routine as much as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, and have lots of attention and care. I also keep the space clean and respect your home.
