“Angela is amazing! She went the extra mile to take care of our cats while we were out of town. From searching all over our house to locate both of our cats to adding more litter to the litter boxes without asking, Angela took all of the extra steps to ensure our cats were safe and healthy! We also deeply appreciate her detailed visit notes and photos — they gave us an accurate picture of how things were going, which made us more comfortable being away. Thank you, Angela!”


“Rachel did an amazing job checking on our cat! Our cat is normally pretty shy around new people but seemed to warm up to Rachel pretty quickly. Rachel also kept us updated and sent pics everyday. Overall, she was great and we will definitely have her take care of our cat again!”

“Mary is the best cat sitter around. She cares for our Gracie and Chester like it was her own. Very loving, very considerate. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.”


“This was our first time using Rover but also having someone other then a family member watch our 2 dachshunds. They can be picky on who they let into there circle and they had no issue warming up to Kelly right away! We were very nervous but Kelly was so calm and made us at ease while we were out of town. I can’t not say enough good things about her! I wish I could explain how much a relief we got knowing our babies were comfortable with Kelly and were taking such good care of! (Our dachshunds are our everything!) We will 1000000% be using Kelly in the future! She was amazing!!!!!”


“Kacey was a wonderful pup and cat sitter! She took care of my two large, energetic pups and my slightly grumpy old cat over the 4th of July holiday weekend. She sent updates and pics during her check ins and I could relax and enjoy my weekend knowing my brood was safe and happy. Thank you, Kacey!”


“My kitty Matilda just loves Lauren! Lauren takes the best care of my kitty. My friends always volunteer to watch Matilda for free. But I politely decline and call Lauren! Thank you so much for taking such good care of my lil kitty!”


About: I have had dogs my entire life, and got my own dog when I was 14. Now there are 3 dogs at my house that I take care of during the day. I am attentive to the behavior of dogs and have a general understanding of it. I currently work at a museum on Monday and Tuesday, and am free any other time during the week. I am also a college student, and will be going back to school in late August. I will go on walks, play games and give your dog plenty of attention. Considering I have three dogs at my house, I am not comfortable bringing a client’s dog to my house in case there is a bad reaction to each other.

“Amy was super reliable and responsive while she took care of our cat, Magpie, for a week. She left great updates and pictures and clearly gave Magpie a ton of love. We would definitely recommend Amy for anyone looking for a cat or dog sitter!”


“Felicia stopped by to check on our cat several times over a week vacation we took recently. Baxter can be a bit standoffish but warmed up to her quickly. She made sure he always had food and water and cleaned the litter box as needed. She was responsible and communicative and sent several pictures every time she checked on him. I’d hire her again for sure.”


“Absolutely wonderful with my girls! One of very few people who my kitties will actively come say hi to when she takes care of them. Usually they hide, but they come right out for her! Thank you so much for caring for my babies!”


“Cori dealt well with my dog’s anxiety about being left with a stranger. Sandi got a walk, water, play time & affection. I will definitely use Cori when we go on vacation & recommend her to anyone who wants personal attention for their dog.”


“Alan was requested last min. and was still able to accommodate my crazy last min planning. My Nola, is a medium size 8month old pitty. She's stuborn, yet sweet as can be, she feels intittled to belly rubs especially from new faces. Nola, tends to get annoyingly over excited with all new faces. She still has a leash pulling and jumping matter we are adressing in her dog academy training, non of those annoyances seemed to phase Alan one bit. He even came the same day I requested his services to meet Nola (all very last min.). I appreciate his flexibility, time managment, and most importantly communication curiosity (quick response time). I'm a single mother of an autistic little ball of 10yr old hyper sunshine 🌞 ... aswell as a full time Private Care for elderly and sick. Both work and personal life are very demanding. My son has been coming to work with me all last and this summer break. Alan made our summer end better with his services! I was finally able to take my son to Hershey Park, tickets which ive had since April. Bless you Alan! #dogsaver #worththebooking #verypleased #bookagainsoon”


“Tori is incredible! This is the second time we’ve used her and we’re ecstatic to have found a wonderful pet sitter. She sent detailed updates and photos every single visit! 2 days it was storming and she made extra late night visits to check on everyone. My shy kitty warmed up to her really quickly too. She’s the best!”


About: 20+ years of pet care experience. In high school and college I worked as a vet tech, and at a boarding/daycare/grooming facility. I have also worked with livestock at numerous farms and horse boarding facilities. I now have 1 dog, 3 cats, and a horse of my own. I love building relationships with pets (those that want it) or giving space (for the more nervous and anxious ones). I pride myself on being able to accurately read each pet and knowing what they need. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule which makes pet sitting amazing! I am able to watch pets while you're away and keep them on whatever schedule best works for them. I'm also available for mid-day let-outs and walks! I make sure each pet is comfortable around me. If they are happy, energetic pets- I make sure to help them get their energy out so they look forward to seeing me! If they're more reserved and nervous, I make sure to go slow so they do not see me as a threat and I do not try and cloud their space, while also reassuring them I am a safe person.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals on my family’s small farm including three dogs, chickens, a pig, sheep, and bees! I’ve always loved dogs and got my first dog before I can remember. Two of our family dogs are hyper cattle dogs that have required lots of training, so I’m no stranger to the zoomies! One of our dogs is a rescue and arrived to us with anxiety and Lymes disease among other issues. I know how far a little extra love for our dogs can go! I care for my dogs at home every day with walks and cuddles. I love to go on walks anyways and would love to take other dogs along with me. I’m able to take my pets and others on walks and have a dog sleeve for my car in case of emergencies or outings. I’m familiar with pet medications and many types of food.

About: With the exception of a few years during college, I have always had animals in my life! I grew up always having a cat and a dog in the house and taking progressively more responsibility for their care as I got older. Now, I'm owned by two dogs (a boxer mix and a lab mix) and two cats, one of which followed my boxer and I home one day and decided to stay. They are by far the best part of my day. With all these fur babies, I've run the gauntlet of pet care challenges, from pilling cats, to dealing with allergies, to working on behaviors like marking and excessive barking. I don't claim to have it all figured out, but what I do know is that it's made me incredibly patient and compassionate with any animals in my care. Plus I've learned a trick or two along the way! I currently work for myself (from home) as a research consultant. While I do have periodic meetings throughout the week, I usually have a significant amount of flexibility in my schedule during the mornings and afternoons. I often find myself going out on multiple long walks throughout the day and generally finding any excuse I can to be outside. So why not use that time to hang out with some new animal friends? My flexible schedule means that I can accommodate most any pet needs. I go for multiple walks every day both on my own and with my own dogs, so it's easy to incorporate lots of activity in your pet's day. I also have an enclosed front porch that we all love sitting outside in the shade on, just enjoying the fresh air. And on hot days, I even have a kiddie pool that one of my dogs likes to play in to cool off. Both my dogs are very friendly and would love to make new friends! One of my cats even enjoys horsing around with the dogs. My dogs have free reign in the house, but usually hang out with me. I'm happy to have your dog(s) make themself at home as well or to crate them if that's your preference.

Jessica R.
“Jessica is an amazing caretaker for her own pets, and has been a wonderful caregiver for our dog on several occasions when we have gone out of town. She doesn’t just make sure there is food, water, and medications covered, she takes the time to build a bond with your pet so they are comfortable while you are gone. Honestly I think my dog was disappointed to see me come home after Jessica cared for her! She is punctual, communicative, organized, and caring. I would trust her with any of my pets!”
