“Lisa came into our home to watch our 9 week old puppy that we’ve only had for 4 days and she was AMAZING! She got right on the floor to connect with our puppy, Ayla, and was so patient throughout the day with Ayla needing to be let out often as we try to potty train her. I instantly felt comfortable with Lisa being in our home and taking care of our busy puppy! Highly recommend!”
“Katharine and her daughter were fantastic! They took the time to really understand our dog’s daily care and feeding routine, they were in contact with pictures and messages every day while we gone, and everything looked just as we had left it when we returned. Best of all it was obvious they both truly love animals, and I know they showered our fur baby with love while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job dog and house sitting with our senior dog, Riley. We are grateful she works from home and could be at our house while we were gone. Will definitely use her again.”
“Autumn did a wonderful job watching our dog while we were away! She was incredibly responsive and our pup seemed to have a great time. The house looked untouched when we got home and she went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and alerting us to a water issue in our basement after heavy rain. We’re hopeful she will be back to watch our pup in the future.”
“Breanna was an absolute rockstar! She made sure my furry friend was taken out at all the times listed, sent me tons of adorable pics, and gave her plenty of love and cuddles. It was so easy to be away knowing my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m Andrea. I am a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all kinds. I’ve raised and loved Great Danes, golden retrievers, chihuahuas, and several cat breeds, so I’m comfortable with everything from big gentle giants to tiny divas. I’ve also personally pet sat for a wide range of breeds and temperaments, including senior pets and animals with behavioral challenges. Whether your pup needs patience and structure or your cat just wants quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for like family. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine! I’m free all day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, so I have plenty of time for longer visits, walks, or overnight stays. During the week, I get off work around 4:30 p.m. and can also stop by during my lunch break if needed. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets get the care and attention they deserve. When I’m caring for pets in someone else’s home, I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their own space. I stick to their usual routine, whether that’s a morning walk, cuddles on the couch, or just quiet company, and follow any instructions you leave to a T. I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want for mine, and I’ll always keep you in the loop with sweet updates and photos. My goal is to make things as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets while you’re away!
“Christian is AWESOME!! He took such good care of our home as he was watching our 2 dogs and our cat- he sent us great updates with photos and videos, the pets all loved him and we loved coming home to everyone happy! I highly highly recommend him and will be using him again in the future!”
“Kristen is truly a phenomenal pet sitter and all-around wonderful person! She took care of our dog, cat, and fish for nearly two weeks while we were on vacation—and went above and beyond by also tending to our home and garden. We’ve entrusted our pets to Kristen for several years now, and every time we leave, we can rest easy knowing they’re in her incredibly capable and caring hands. She’s responsible, communicative, and genuinely kind to our animals. We feel so lucky to have found her!”
“Oliver came over for a meet/greet prior to staying in my home with my 2 chihuahuas which was very helpful. He took great care of my girls and sent lots of updates and pix. I highly recommend him for any time you need pet care!”
“Stephanie was great with my pup! She gave him so much love and attention. She was super communicative to me and sent lots of pictures. She really eased my mind of leaving my dog behind!”
“This was my first time using Eleanor. She was very responsive when setting up the potential dog sitting. I thought she was trustworthy, caring and stayed in good contact while I was away. I would highly recommend using her in the future.”
“Alex recently stayed at our house to take care of our Cocker (Cooper) as well as tropical fish. Cooper took to her right away. She obviously has a love of dogs. Many walks and pictures. No dead fish! Highly recommended!”
“Alex was awesome with my dog! She sent pictures and notes with how things were going regularly. I was so nervous to leave him with a stranger but I was quickly relieved once Alex started sharing pictures. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Elizabeth did a great job with Delilah. She sent pictures and Delilah looked very happy in all of them. She also sent us other updates throughout her stay. She was extremely flexible with us. We had to delay our leave day due to our daughter getting sick and she just rolled with it. She also stopped by on the last day to let her out 1 more time since our drive back home is pretty long.”
“Britt took care of our 2 dogs, fish, and reptiles while we were out of town for over a week. They will miss her! She took great care of the puppy for overnights and keeping her company during the day, too. We had no worries leaving for a long trip knowing they were all in her care.”
“Teresa was our first Rover sitter and we could have not been more pleased! We were so happy we had someone we could trust while away for the weekend. She was very professional, respectful of our home, and patient with our pups. We enjoyed getting frequent photos and updates. Would highly recommend Teresa and will be reaching out to her again in the future!”
