We had an excellent experience with Camryn. Her communication was outstanding from start to finish, quick responses, clear updates, and plenty of photos that gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Leaving senior dogs is never easy, but we truly felt comfortable and confident they were in good hands. She was attentive to their needs, patient, and clearly experienced with older dogs (and a mischievous cat). We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups and a smooth overall experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.

As always, my boys and my house were confidently in the best of hands with Mallory. Both my dog and my cat absolutely love Mallory and my house is always under exceptional care. Seriously couldn’t recommend a better sitter.

Sara was great! We left our Nailah home for a night while we went on a trip and she took good care of her. She sent pictures as well as updates while we were gone and our Nailah really seemed to love her. Would highly recommend 10/10

Dawn was absolutely wonderful! She kept us consistently updated with daily check-in photos of our pups, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. I had a pretty detailed (and admittedly long!) list of instructions for our dogs, and she took the time to carefully review everything with patience and professionalism. She followed through on every detail and made sure our fur babies were not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and comfortable. It’s clear that Dawn truly loves what she does. Her communication was excellent, and she was always quick to respond if we had a question. Knowing our “dog kids” were in such capable, attentive hands made it so much easier for us to relax and fully enjoy our vacation. We’re so grateful for her care and would absolutely trust her with our pups again!

Amanda is amazing! She’s stayed with our animals twice now and we’ll keep booking her anytime we’re out of town. The animals have always been so well cared for and our house perfectly clean. She was super flexible when we left town last week amidst the water debacle and had to stay at another location with our animals. She’s very communicative and always sends updates with pictures throughout the day. We can’t recommend her enough.

About: I am a huge animal lover with lots of pet care experience! I grew up with pets and have had a few of my own in my adulthood. I adopted my current dog, Ruth, at approximately 8 years old. She is now about 13 years old! I am familiar with pet medication administration and senior pet care. I look forward to meeting your fur babies! I am a lawyer with my own business, so I do not work a traditional 9 to 5 and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide pet care during the week and on the weekends! I am responsible and detail-oriented. Since I have these traits, I will always pay strict attention to your instructions for your pet and be respectful of your home.

Bee (Brittney) is an amazing pet sitter! It’s so nice to be able to go out of town without worrying one bit about your dog. She loves Henry and he feels the same about her. Bee sends me cute pictures and updates throughout the day which I very much appreciate. My home was clean and tidy when I walked in the door and she even put clean sheets on my bed! She’s the best!

Sarah was loving and patient with our elderly dog who simply can't handle thunderstorms. Unfortunately, both nights we were gone, storms appeared. She had to adjust sleeping arrangements since our dog could not settle. Sarah was very communicative throughout the entire booking and for that I am extremely appreciative. Thank you, Sarah!

Victor was an exceptional guest and a wonderful caretaker for my two dogs. He followed all instructions carefully, maintained great communication while I was away, and most importantly, my dogs absolutely adored him. The house was spotless when I returned! Victor went above and beyond to ensure everything was in order, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets and home were in such capable hands. I would not hesitate to welcome him back again. Highly recommended!

About: I have over eight years of hands on pet care experience, including caring for a diabetic dog requiring consistent monitoring and medication management. I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs, as well as cats and other household pets. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a dog of my own. I’m available for regular walks, check ins, and plenty of attention throughout the day, with extra time on weekends for long walks, dog parks, and outdoor play. Whether in my home or a client’s home, the pet’s safety, comfort, and well being always come first. I follow their routine closely, maintain a clean environment, provide attentive supervision, and ensure they feel secure and cared for at all times.

Charlotte was absolutely a perfect choice to leave our hounds and old man pup with! You can tell that they were very well loved on by her and that she took great care of them. We appreciate her patience and communication with us and would absolutely work with her again. She took great care of our home and went as far as washing all our bedding before we came home too. Thank you so much again, Charlotte!

We are so glad we found Autumn! She ended up being a last minute booking, but still had time to meet us and our pup before hand to make sure we didn't have any questions. This was our first time having a Rover stay at our house and Autumn really set the bar high. Our pup instantly felt comfortable with her :) that, paired with great photos and excellent communication made ME feel so much better about leaving our dog in Autumn's care. Autumn also took stellar care of our house as well. I will 100% be using Autumn for all future pet sitting!
