“Maryn provided exceptional dog/house sitting services. She made sure my dog was attended to as requested, provided walks, kept the house tidy, and provided me with regular updates on my dog. This was my first time using Rover and she made the process seamless and worry free.”

“Ell was great! She kept me updated with photos, & I could tell my dogs were very well taken care of. She also took good care of my home & left it clean & organized! She also did me the favor of watering my outdoor plants. I will definitely be hiring Ell again!”

About: In a dog eat dog world, I have helped family and friends with their dogs and cats. Along with that I grew up in cat household throughout my childhood. I have experience with playing with and loving dogs, especially my grandmother's dog during my middle school and high school years. I've had to pet sit for friends for their cat within the last year. That responsibility included feeding the cat since he was an outside cat. But as a previous cat owner I know how to change a litter box and not let the cat think it is the god of the house. In addition to that, I've gone to a relative's house to let her dog out to the use the bathroom and fed him. As a full time preschool instructional assistant, I have early evening availability during Wed through Friday and weekend availability to come look after and play with your furry friends.

“We had never used Rover before, so we were super nervous how it would work with our fur babies. Erin eased our worries completely, even doing a test run for an hour before our vacation! One of our girls can be kind of hesitant/growly at people she doesn't know, but she warmed up to Erin immediately. The entire time we were gone, Erin sent us updates and pictures...making it so much easier for us to enjoy our vacation!! We can't say enough how amazing she is and we will definitely be using her again!!!”

“Stephanie was fantastic watching our French Bulldog! We got a number of updates and she went above and beyond. We very much appreciated her and will be using her again!”

About: I’ve loved animals of all kinds since I was a kid! For the last 8 years I have worked as a veterinary assistant working hands on with pets of all kinds including anxious pets, special needs pets, and geriatric pets. I’m comfortable giving medications or following specific directions for pets that need just a little more attention. I of course love pets of all ages whether that’s playing with young pets or giving older pets more accommodations. I’m currently working part-time at an animal clinic, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pet! I go for walks twice daily already and your pet would make a perfect addition! I live in an apartment with my 13 year old cat, Juliet. Juliet is a very sweet cat but will typically hide when other pets are boarded in the home. My apartment is located in the Volker neighborhood with parks and plenty of walking trails nearby. For in home boarding, pets are welcome on my furniture including the bed. I am happy to follow any and all requests for boarding / caretaking inside your home, including giving medications either orally or injectables.

“I’ve had Kayla watch my senior boy twice and she does extremely well with him. He struggles with storms and she’s handles his fears like a pro!”

Emma D.

“Another 6⭐️ rating for Abby! She took great care of our energetic 11 month old Golden Retriever “Hank”—he loves her! He got plenty of exercise and TLC. Abby kept us updated to include photos. She is the consummate professional. We will definitely seek her services again!”

“Jonathan was thorough and professional once again! One of our dogs has severe anxiety and Jonathan took the time to revisit our pets to ensure an easy stay. Thank you for loving our pets this past weekend!”

“Lori was great with our dogs. She sent lots of pictures and cared for them well during our time away. You can tell that she takes her job seriously and wants what’s best for the animals. We will hire her again!”

About: I’ve been owned by several (rescue) dogs and a few cats. Am capable a caring for multiple pets in household. Have lived with 3 dogs for several years. I’m good with all animals and have a tendency to make a critter calm. Senior dogs are a specialty and regular medications are no problem. Done a lot of house sitting for pets and home security. Day care and overnights easy as I am retired with only a few obligations with my time. I am retired so an abundance of time is available. I do have a commitment to sit with a dog and two cats every Wednesday. I feed/walk/play with two dogs every evening and a long walk on Saturday afternoon. I clean a home once a month on my schedule. I am involved in my church (Sunday worship and once a month vestry meetings). If you desire overnight stays or extended visits I’m able to do that as long as leaving for above mentioned obligations works with your pet. My specialty is senior dogs. I prefer smaller dogs as I am older fella and wouldn’t want to lose grip walking or caring for large dogs. Feeding/walks/medications not a problem If doing check ins I am punctual and trustworthy in your home.

“Rachel did an amazing job with our dogs. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing she was taking such good care of them. We got daily updates, with pictures. She gladly brought in mail and watered plants for us. She is very accommodating and fit us in to her schedule. She was able to pop in for 3 afternoons visits before her time here started when our son wasn’t able to get here during the day to let them out. We will definitely be calling her for future jobs! She’s a gem!!”

“This is the second time Vanessa has watched my greyhound mix, and it was just as good as the first time. She's responsive and sends daily updates. I would recommend Vanessa to others.”
