“Tracy was absolutely delightful! During our initial visit she was very thorough - taking notes on personality and play habits along with the basics of care. By the end of the visit I felt like we were old friends. I loved the videos of our cats. They're skittish and seemed much more at ease with her than I expected for the first time having her watch them. I very much look forward to working with her in the future! Thank you Tracy!! 💖”
“We booked Heather for a second time while we traveled in January and we were very pleased with her care of our 3 pets. She's very responsible, communicates extremely well and takes great pride in her work. She updated us right after every check-in so we knew our pets were safe and happy while we were away, and sent us pictures as well :) Heather provided us great peace of mind while we were away, we will definitely hire her to care for our pets again!!”
“Our kitty is such a skittish girl and she warmed right up to Andria after the first drop in visit! She checked to make sure the automatic feeder was working and that her water & litter box was just fine over the 3 days. I appreciate Andria's quick communication and flexibility considering the holidays and would recommend her for any cat sitting!”
“Angela was very flexible and helped us out on very short notice. She arrived exactly when she said she would, fed and pottied my three dogs, had some play time and did some special care with my senior boy. I will call on her again if needed.”
“This was our first time using the Rover app, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Makayla was absolutely wonderful—super sweet and thorough when she came to meet our cat and go over all of the instructions. While we were away, she checked in every day with thoughtful notes and the cutest photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She even brought in some packages that were delivered, which was such a nice extra touch. It’s clear she genuinely cares, and we’ll definitely be booking her again. We’re already planning to have her help with dog walking, too. Highly recommend!”
“Kirsten was phenomenal with my pups. She communicated in a timely manner, arrived on time and even went above our agreed upon services by washing belly bands and cutting burrs out of my dog’s fur. I am very impressed by her and will definitely be utilizing her services again.”
“What a great experience! Michelle was timely, communicative and kind when caring for our cats. Michelle had to navigate our house under construction and evolving pet care plans - and did so with ease.”
“Carolyn is absolutely amazing. There were a couple of technical problems through rover and she addressed them right away and was able to get everything straighten out. She fills out full descriptions of what she does and puts me at ease know my cat is well taken care of. Lots of pictures too! Carolyn was great ! Can’t recommend her enough.”

About: Leaving your four legged loved ones at home when you go on vacation is never easy. I strive to make sure they feel cared for and loved while you are away so you don't need to worry! I have over 18 years experience caring for animals of my own, rescue fosters, and shelter animals, and caring for others' pets while they are away. I am a lifelong animal lover with experience with cats, dogs, and small animals like ferrets, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, chickens, and more. I have cats and dogs of my own currently. Whether you are looking for a dog walker, a drop-in pet sitter, or a comfortable place to board your four-legged (or more or less) family members, I can be of service to you. I live in a single family home with a fully fenced in backyard, and a separate dedicated nicely sized bedroom dedicate to boarding. Whether I'm housing your pets or visiting your home, my goal is always to make them as comfortable and as happy as possible! I am currently working part-time from home. I am available for boarding, walking, and drop-ins, on a relatively flexible schedule. I am also offering sitter pick-ups and drop-offs as a boarding add-on. My style of pet care is catering to their needs and your desires. I have experience with shy, rowdy, low-energy, and other types of personalities. Each pet and each situation requires a unique approach.
About: I treat every dog like they are my own. Daily updates with photos, videos,and/or messages. Playtime, basic training reinforcement, medication administration, and light grooming/brushing-all included at no extra charge I currently work part-time and structure my day around the needs of the pets in my care. On a weekly basis, I plan ahead for pet’s routine and maintain regular communication with owners My top priorities are comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure you pet feels relax by keeping their environment as normal and consistent as possible.
About: I have over 13 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and various other animals, including daily feeding, grooming, training, and keeping pets happy, healthy, and active. As a full-time college student, I find it important to disconnect from school, destress, and relax — and caring for pets is one of my favorite ways to do that. Additionally, with most of my classes being in the morning, I'll have plenty of time in the evening to say hello! As someone who lives in an apartment, I have found that it is important to keep my animals both physically active, mentally stimulated, and well-groomed.

“I’m so grateful to have found this amazing dog walker and care by Lucy! My mini schnauzer, Bella, absolutely loves her three times a week walks and gets so excited when her walker arrives. Lucy is incredibly reliable, friendly, and clearly experienced with dogs of all personalities. She always take the time to give her plenty of exercise, love, and even a little training reinforcement. I get regular updates and photos, which truly brighten my day. Knowing Bella is in such caring hands gives me total peace of mind while I'm at work. Highly recommended to any dog parent!" — Mary D, dog owner”
