“Andria is such a blessing! She took wonderful care of our fur babies while we were out of town. She’s an effective communicator, always provided us photos, moved our trash bins to the garage, brought in the mail and even helped by putting away our meat delivery as I forgot to reschedule it. She definitely went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t be more appreciative!!! 10/10 would recommend hiring Andria🤗🐕🦺🦮”

3. Toni C.


“We are so glad to have found Toni to watch our kitties! They were so loved and well taken care of. We appreciate her communication, thorough reports, and her genuine care for them! Will definitely be using her services again in the future.”




4. Lynn L.


“I’m so happy with Lynn and her services. Very professional and sweet. I was hesitant to use rover because our dogs are a little antisocial at times and Lynn came to meet them and they loved her. I highly recommend her and I am so happy to have someone reliable we can trust with our fur babies again in the future.”


5. Patrick W.


“Patrick did an excellent job caring for our two senior dogs. He was very punctual about dropping in to feed them and take them out. He was also very quick to respond to messages. He definitely put our minds at ease and allowed us to enjoy our vacation, knowing our hounds were well taken care of . We will definitely book with him again!”


6. matt M.

“Matt was great, he stayed in constant contact and sent pictures of every visit while he was watching our dog Rocco. He even brought in packages and cleaned up after Rocco.”


7. Colleen K.

“Colleen helped me out last minute with a drop in with my dog. She was friendly, professional and on time. She provided good notes for the visit and my dog enjoyed her company! Will definitely be using her again.”


8. Shayna T.
“Shayna has probably been one of the best sitters I’ve ever had period. Extremely attentive to my pup and cat and always so detailed with her visits. My cat was even eating my new plant and she hid it from him to make sure it wasn’t destroyed by the time I can back 😂. Have nothing but trust every time she watches the animals.”


9. Ann R.
“If you leave your dog in Ann’s care, you can rest assured knowing that Ann will care for and love your dog like it was her own “baby”! She has had dogs, loved dogs and rescued dogs her whole life. Any dog blessed to have Ann in their life has won the “human”lottery! So spoil your dogs and hire Ann!!”


10. Mariana F.
“can’t say enough good things about Mariana! From the moment we met, I knew my little Mercy was in great hands. She provided excellent care, regular updates, and plenty of love and attention. It was clear my pup was happy and well taken care of while I was away. Reliable, professional, and truly caring—I highly recommend Mariana to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”


11. Amanda C.
“Amanda was great!! She came for a drop in for my two dogs and I could tell was very mindful of their care and truly wanted them to have a good time. I could tell they were happy and had a nice break when I got home and would definitely book with her again! Thanks Amanda!!”


12. Laura M.

“Laura was great with our two cats and anxious dog! She very kindly came for a visit ahead of time to meet our pets and familiarize herself with their care needs. We will definitely reach out to Laura again for pet sitting 👍🏽”


13. Kayvion S.
“Kayvion did an amazing job with taking care of my dog and cat while I was away at work. He was very attentive and caring with both my fur babies. They both require a lot of attention and have a ton of energy so I needed to find someone who was able to give them their undivided attention. I would hire him again without hesitation to take care of my babies. Definitely recommend, if you need someone to take care your loved ones he’ll treat them with the utmost care.”

About: So I’ve had about 3 dogs in total growing up, including one crazy chihuahua! & I’m my extended family’s favorite go to pet sitter :) I currently do work part time so I’m off pretty early in the day. Thursday-Friday I am able to do boarding maybe Saturdays (upon request) I have two pretty chill friendly small dogs here at home. A spacious fenced in backyard for your pet to roam around. & lastly no children present.


15. Sandy M.
About: I have had dogs many years. We have had different kinds of dogs, such as Rottweiler/German Shepard mix, medium and small. Sat for senior dogs needing a little extra help with ambulation and medication. We have two energetic -boys to play with and take for walks around the dog friendly neighborhood. We have one healthy 17 year old Dachshund in home now that we adopted, who has been with us for over 12 years, who warm ups with guest dogs pretty quickly. Looking forward to have different dogs to share our love and time taking care of them. Took a from ROVER sitting when a kitten adopted our family and we needed to learn to care for cats. Ready to reconnect with dog again. Family oriented care for dogs of all sizes and breeds. Looking to walk or drop in care. Flexible once we meet the pet and owners. Will walk and go into home as requested. High energy or snuggles as needed to accommodate the needs of the dogs and keep them safe while caring for them.


16. Mark K.

“It was initially unsettling for me to find and hire a dog sitter for my very shy dog. Mark answered my prayers and was definitely up for the challenge!! He was calm, trustworthy and reliable. He had patience and compassion with Bella. What a great relief for me that I had absolutely no worries hiring this great pet sitter. Bella was well taken care of. I loved the uploaded picture he sent of Bella in the backyard. I will surely continue to book my pet sitting needs with Mark. I highly recommend him as he is awesome at what he does!!”


17. Barbara N.
About: From watching dogs since I was about eight years old to caring for senior dogs, dogs in heat, big dogs, and small dogs. And now also being able to share this experience with my dog loving daughter has been such a blessing and even helps us bond. My pet care experience is truly diverse and extensive. My passion and dedication shine through in the way I try to provide love and attention to all pups, making sure their tails wag with joy and comfort. My journey in pet care reflects a deep understanding of dogs' needs and a commitment to their well-being, creating a safe and happy environment for every furry friend I welcome into my care. I work from home so I am always here able to provide potty breaks when needed. We also have a decent size yard with a 7ft privacy fence. I have a 7ft privacy fence and room for pups to let out their zoomies. I encourage doggy parent to check in anytime and provide picture updates daily if client allows.


18. Carole B.
“Carole is a great caretaker of pets. She has over 30 years of experience caring for animals. She is very attentive and courteous towards dogs and cats alike. Making sure to give them plenty of loving attention and attune to their needs is her strong suit.”


19. Tara P.

“Tara really helped us out by taking care of Monarch when our normal sitter was unavailable and we had a funeral to attend to. Monarch gets a little anxious and jumpy with new people but Tara didn’t give up on him and eventually won him over. Tara took good care of Monarch.”




20. Laura V.
“Laura is a very responsible pet owner and very caring person. She has 3 ferrets and a cat and takes care of them by making sure they are safe, entertained and regularly visit their veterinarian for appointments. She is also a very compassionate person. She is the one who convinced me to try vegetarianism and eventually veganism. She practices what she is serious about. And she'd be great to watch over your precious pooch.”
