“Claire was great! We had a last minute need for a sitter for our kitty, and she couldn’t have been more gracious and helpful. She took great care of our kitty and even went the extra mile by taking out our trash on trash day. We had peace of mind while we were away because our kitty was in excellent hands!”
“Courtney B did a fabulous job looking after a very skiddish feral cat. She was able to work very well with the kitty and made sure food was available for her while I was out of town. I would certainly have Courtney help again!”
“Isabella does a fantastic job. Her communication is top notch, wonderful pictures/videos and the report cards are very thorough. Look no further, pick Isabella for your pet sitting needs.”
“Katelyn took excellent care of my two cats. She played with them and kept their areas clean. She was very responsive in our communications too. I would definitely book Katelyn again.”
About: A reliable pet sitter with extensive experience, offering personalized care for dogs and cats. I can provide energetic walks, interactive play sessions, cozy cuddles, and careful feeding routines, ensuring your pets feel at home even when you're away. I’m currently working part time and enrolled in college but i typically take online classes. I am typically available whenever needed and can adjust my schedule to whatever is needed. I have a fenced in porch with lots of room for any animals to be able to be outside. Plenty of yard room for them to be able to run around.
About: I stand out because I truly treat every pet like family. I have experience with all types of dogs and cats, including rescues and anxious pets. I’m reliable, attentive to details, and trained in basic pet first aid—always making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I plan my schedule around visits, walks, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s early mornings, afternoons, or evenings, I stay flexible to meet each pet’s needs and keep their routine consistent and stress-free. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I follow their routines closely to keep things familiar and comfortable. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of exercise, playtime, and love, and I always keep the home clean and secure. I pay attention to details like medication schedules, special diets, or behavior quirks to ensure each pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a little girl. I’m offering to play with, walk, and care for your pets when you are busy. Throughout our time together I will send thorough updates as well as photos. I also have experience volunteering at a humane society, working at a vets office, and working at a grooming salon so I understand dog behaviors and overall care. I am doing this part time during weekdays and select weekends as I am a full time college student. I will be available as needed, as long as I have a few days of warning. I currently have one beagle with high anxiety and look after five other dogs of different breeds and sizes at varying times. I am invested in insuring your pet is comfortable and happy while also following any restrictions or rules that you have set forth. Otherwise its belly scratches, snuggles, and play time galore!
About: I have had animals my whole life. Couldn’t imagine life without them. I have had English Mastiff/Great Danes( not afraid of some drool) to Jack Russell’s. I currently do not have any employment. I’m extremely bored at home. I would like to get out of the house doing something I know I would love. My husband travels for work so we currently live in a large fifth wheel RV. We have one dog a 6yr old Great Dane. Also one calico cat about 8 months old .
About: I have years of experience with animals going back as far as 5 years old. I've grown up with cats, dogs, fish, and even different types of birds. I've always loved teaching animals new tricks, cuddling, even watching them get the zoomies outside. Animals can be a lot of fun when you let them experience different environments and aspects of life. I also had a job at a pet boarding place. This consisted of being outside with the dogs in runs, playing with them, cleaning the rooms and more. I have 2 dogs at home. One boxer and one german shepard. I work a lot so when i'm home I try to spend as much time with them as I can when I am home. One of the things my german shepard likes to do is chase water from the hose, so during the summer time, we do that a lot. On the other hand, Tyson is a little bit older but he still gets the zoomies, he likes to playfully growl outside but then when he's done, he likes to sun bathe lol. To include all this, I also have 2 guinea pigs who need lots of attention. I try to bring them out of the cage by 1 everyday to spend quality time with them because they're very loving. They enjoy being outside and eating the clover, they sure do appreciate when they get their veggies! They need their nails trimmed about once a week so I do keep up with that. Bathing them isn't a high priority since they just like cats and bathe themselves but a bath once every 3-4 months will be perfect. Our dog tyson, tends to get scared of storms really easily, so when this happens I try to comfort him as much as possible wether that's putting on his jacket, letting him up on my bed because he's scared and needs some cuddles.
About: I will take care of any pet. I have taken care of cats and dogs but have no animal limits. I will make your your pets are happiest! Pet care is currently my full time job. Feel free to ring me up anytime day or night for your pet care needs. Truly 24 hours I give fresh water and food every day. I will pet them and play with them if they want, or leave them alone if they want to be left alone.
About: I've taken care of many different types of dogs since I was a kid. I also have a couple fur babies of my own! I am a lover of all animals and will provide quality care for your babies like they are my own! I have dog sat for friends, family, and neighbors before. I'm currently a full-time student in college but my schedule is very flexible due to not have classes all day. I normally do my pet care during breaks between classes, in the morning, and once school is done for the day. I have a friendly dog of my own that your fur baby is more than welcome to play with. I have multiple leashes that can be used, and can easily crate your dog if needed in a kennel if necessary. I come with supplies of my own for walks and such if needed. If a dog happens to be reactive, I will make sure to do what is comfortable for them!
“Rebecca was fantastic. Great communication from start to finish and even alerted us about ants getting into a new auto feeder for our cats and helped rectify the issue. Food and litter areas were left clean. Great job!!”

Kenslie R.
“To Whom It May Concern, I’m thrilled to recommend Kenslie R. as a pet sitter and dog walker on Rover.com. As Kenslie’s close friend, I’ve seen firsthand their genuine love for animals and dedication to their care. Kenslie is the person everyone turns to for pet care in our community. Pets naturally gravitate towards them, showing excitement and trust. Kenslie is not only affectionate but also highly responsible, ensuring each pet’s unique needs are met. For example, Kenslie once cared for a neighbor’s dog, Max, who needed daily medication and a strict feeding schedule. Kenslie handled Max’s routine perfectly, providing the necessary care along with companionship and playtime, which noticeably improved Max’s mood. Kenslie is reliable and handles unexpected situations calmly, always prioritizing the pets’ safety and comfort. Their punctuality and communication skills offer pet owners peace of mind when they’re away. In short, Kenslie R. is an exceptional pet sitter and dog walker. Their passion for animals, responsibility, and compassionate approach make them an ideal choice for Rover.com. I wholeheartedly recommend Kenslie to any pet parent seeking trustworthy and loving care for their furry family members. Sincerely, [courtney burgess]”

Joanna M.
“Jo has watched my horses and my dog several times. 110% recommend Jo! I have a difficult time leaving my horses because no one takes care of them as well as I do. Then I found Jo. She took care of my horses like they were her own. She followed 2 pages of detailed instructions and never skipped a beat. It was nice to be able to go on vacation and not worry about my bougie sensitive crazy horses. Jo has also come to my home in the middle of my long days and exercised my dog. She treated Kona lovingly and went above and beyond for her. Kona adores Jo! She also gave our rabbit attention and pets when she was there to walk Kona! It’s amazing to have a trustworthy person to hire when I need someone. It puts my mind at ease to have someone like Jo.”
