âWeâve used Katie a few times now to watch our pup and we canât say enough good things. Sheâs attentive, kind, a great communicator, and responsible. We are so happy we found Katie and can go on trips knowing our sweet girl is in good hands. Katie helps administer meds to our pup and is very intuitive with knowing what our dog needs. Thank you Katie for taking the best care of our girl!â

âEverything from meet and greet to booking was great with Christian. He kept up with fur baby photos and kept the house spotless for a smooth return from vacation. I will definitely be booking with him again đđ˝đâ

About: Iâm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Iâve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have two cats of my own, so caring for animals is second nature to me (for reference: my chore starting at age 5 was to feed the dogs đđś). Iâve worked with breeds ranging from pit bulls to chihuahuas, and Iâm especially comfortable with pets that need a little extra patienceâwhether thatâs a high-energy dog or a âdifficultâ cat. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile. Iâm comfortable administering medication to both cats and dogs, brushing teeth, and clipping nails. Iâm also a runner and love taking active dogs on short to mid-length runs or long walks if thatâs something they enjoy. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, or calm, reliable companionship, I tailor my care to meet their unique needs and routine. Iâm currently a law student, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Monday through Friday, I have one morning class and one afternoon class, but Iâm available to check on your pets during lunch, as well as in the mornings and evenings. My weekends are completely open, and as long as you donât mind me doing a bit of studying at times, I can spend the majority of the day with your furry familyâmaking sure they get plenty of attention, care, and companionship. Your petâs safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I follow care instructions closely and take time to understand each petâs personality, triggers, and preferences. In a clientâs home, I respect the space and strive to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible for your pet. Iâm attentive to things like secure doors and gates, leash safety on walks, and monitoring food, medications, and behavior changes. I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations and always prioritize calm, positive interactions. Iâm happy to provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel confident and connected while youâre away.
âAna is an EXCEPTIONAL pet sitter!!! The best ever! I can't say enough nice things about her. She Sent pictures of him and communicated with me on a daily basis, while on a 12 day cruise! She gave him a bath, medication, and hand fed him when he was reluctant To eat. She left my house sparkling - totally clean & my Yorkie looking super healthy and cute! She was an angel - took care of my little dog like he was her own. I know he was sad to see her leave - but we will Always call her in the future! Thank you Ana!!!đşâ¤ď¸ You are truly an amazing person!!â

âEsther was awesome! Petsitting 2 cattle dogs at the last minute was challenging, but she worked with me and my pets and got them in a routine within a day!

Raider, Sloane and I are grateful to Esther for everything. Thank you! âĽď¸â


âRobert was absolutely amazing with our little autumn while we were on a cruise. It was our first time leaving our fur baby behind and she loved Robert so much.

Christine is always takes great care of Kiko! I can tell when I come home and she is excited and not anxious. She has her toys are out in some of favorite places Z Christine is reliable, realistic around expectations and how she is able to deliver. Highly recommend

Kimberly has stayed with our dog twice now, and we have nothing but good things to say! She was very responsible and communicative, sending pics and videos of our dog. She left the house spotless and was very accommodating to all our requests. Thanks again, Kimberly!

She was amazing! You would be lucky to have her as your sitter. She sent me videos and pictures everyday. She is a lovely, caring and thoughtful lady. She even brought her daughter and husband over to walk and play with them too! I will definitely ask her to watch my 3 pups again:)

Christian was amazing! I had never used an outside service before and wasnt sure what to expect but Christian went above and beyond for my dogs. He sent multiple pictures/videos for updates each day, allowed the dogs to smother him in attention, and made the entire process stress free and seamless. The dogs absolutely loved him and I wouldnt hesitate to rebook him. Couldnt imagine anyone better!

Genevieve took care of my pets for two weeks while I was vacationing out of the country. I was nervous about using Rover for such a long trip as my only previous Rover experience was for a long weekend getaway probably over 6 years ago. However Genevieve was an extremely wonderful sitter. I could tell she really cares about animals. She treated my dog Yugi with trips to the park and playtime with her own dogs (only after ensuring my dog would be friendly with others), as well as peanut butter snacks and plenty of cuddles. In her update pictures and videos I could tell he was getting along more than fine and enjoying Genevieveâs care! The two weeks was over in a flash but she really helped us not to worry about our pets so that we could enjoy our trip!

Hereâs a polished and completed version of your review: ⸝ I highly recommend hiring Angela to take care of your dog. I was out of town for eight days, and she kept me consistently updated with photos and quick reports. My anxious dog was at ease with her from the moment they met, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was respectful of my home and followed all instructions carefully. Angela is reliable, caring, and truly great with animals. I wouldnât hesitate to book her again!

Angela is truly amazing. We are so grateful for her watching our boy Milo for 5 days while we were out of the country for a wedding. Milo is a boisterous and energetic 18 months lab. Angela put our mind at ease from the moment she came for a meet and greet. She is kind and softspoken and handled Milo with ease. While caring for Milo, she played with Milo, watched him do chew toys, and walked him two times a day. She was punctual, responsible, and sent regular updates with photos. We're very glad we found her. Â We will certainly have her watch our Milo again.

We met Kelsy at the beginning of the summer and she took such amazing care of our dog this summer while we traveled. Even our fellow neighbor dog owners met and loved her on their walks. She was great with Thor always in communication with us with pictures and updates.

Ace was the perfect pet sitter for our toy poodle and tabby cat! They are incredibly friendly, sweet, and pairing to our pets! If youâre looking for someone who is experienced in taking of animals and enjoys doing it, contact Ace! I will definitely hire them again in the future!

Angelica was absolutely amazing! She took care of my two dogs and two cats over the weekend and went above and beyond. She sent regular photo updates, which gave me peace of mind, and even handled an unexpected situation by following all emergency protocols perfectly. I felt completely confident leaving my pets in her care. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter!

Holly came bright and early to take care of our little girl Luna. Holly has an excellent touch with dogs and assured us that Luna was going to have a great time while we were away for the morning. Thank you Holly for taking great care of Luna and making sure her needs were met. We will definitely book again soon!

I had such a great experience with Jessica as a dog sitter for my dog, Tuffy! She followed all of the care instructions, including wiping Tuffy's eyes, administering medication, and keeping to her specific feeding and walking schedule. I really appreciated how accommodating she was to Tuffyâs routine and her needs. Her communication was excellent â she was very responsive and asked thoughtful questions to ensure she was caring for Tuffy in the best way possible. Jessica kept me updated frequently with pictures and messages, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Tuffy looked happy, relaxed, and well taken care of when I returned â it was clear she was in good hands and liked Jessica very much. She was also incredibly trustworthy and respectful. I appreciated that she asked for permission in advance if she needed to be out for a certain period of time. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. I would absolutely book her again!
