“Amie did a fantastic job cat-sitting for us and put our minds completely at ease so we could enjoy our time away. She went out of her way to make everything very easy for us, including the meet and greet and returning our keys. She also sent great pictures, and she left our home very clean and tidy. We definitely recommend her.”



“The world needs more Emmas! Emma is simply the best. From the moment we connected with her, she was incredibly responsive and consistently demonstrated professionalism and a genuine commitment to what she does. Our dogs absolutely loved her! She kept us regularly updated, which brought us so much peace of mind while we were away. Knowing that someone so dedicated was caring for our furry family members made all the difference. What truly stood out was Emma’s proactive nature—she offered to help us with a situation we hadn’t even anticipated. That level of care goes far beyond what you typically expect when trusting someone with your pets. Emma went above and beyond in every way. I wholeheartedly recommend her. The world would truly be a better place with more people like Emma.”


“Jamie was great and very easy to work with. She was on time and clearly got along with Zelda and was communicative throughout the booking process and during the day where she dog-sat. Zelda was in a good mood when I got home and clearly enjoyed the company.”


“Ali did a really great job watching both my dog and apartment! She is very kind and responsible. I would highly recommend her for any services you may be considering!”


“Kat sent so many pictures and videos of my sweet Winnie. I am confident that Winnie got lots of attention and had all of her needs met while I was away. Highly recommend!”


“Kurt was great! Clearly a dog lover! Quick response time, followed through with updates during his stay with Grover. Very Professinal. I felt at ease and am 100 percent satisfied with his work!”

About: I've loved animals my whole life. I have a lizard which I love dearly, and I grew up with a variety of family pets but I haven’t had a chance to get one on my own. I volunteer to watch my friends and families pets for multiple years, just starting to do it professionally! I hope to utilize this opportunity to get my animal fix while incorporating some exercise! I have experience with senior cats, dogs, including dogs with behavioral issues, as well as lizards, hamsters and the occasional bird or fish. I work another full time job that is a fixed schedule Monday through Friday, so l am capable of working regular hours for your and your pets! This will be a top priority and I am so excited to care for your pet and meet new animal lovers! I have house-sit for multiple friends and family members and I make sure to leave the house as I found it and make sure to abide and respect any house rules!

“Courtney was the perfect dog sitter! She watched our Roxy for 10 days while we were on vacation during a huge winter storm. Even though it was negative temps she still tried to walk her and she played in the snow with her and just gave her all the love.”


“Claire was so great with our 2 dogs and cat for an overnight stay. It was our first time using Rover and admittedly, I felt like somewhat of a helicopter pet mom going from a trusted friend watching our pets to a ‘stranger’, plus having specific instructions about how to deal with our high energy/anxiety dog and keeping our car separate from our other dog. But with all of those instructions, Claire listened every step of the way and made everything so seamless. I could tell in our meet and greet our fur babies would be in great hands, but she exceeded that. She was extremely responsive, understood this being our first time with Rover, and sent plenty of updates. She’s truly is the reason we were able to enjoy our holiday and know our pups and cat were taken care of. We will definitely be booking her in the future if she’s available whenever we need it.”


“Helen has watched our dog, Henry overnight for a long weekend twice now and has done a great job communicating and sending photos. She dropped off and picked him up from daycare and was able to manage his high energy personality. Would highly recommend!”


“Mae took great care of my two dogs. She is very responsible and great communicator, send me several updates with pictures what I truly appreciate. I would definitely reach out to her if need help in the future.”


“Jess was amazing with my pups! Very timely about visits and understanding of their needs. One of my dogs can be a bit of a grouch and Jess gave him the time and space he needed to warm up to her and he quickly came around to wanting her attention. Lots of updates and pictures, very comforting all around. Will definitely be using her services again!”


“Amor is a nightmare of a dog with so much energy and no manners! But she absolutely adores Reed and Natalie.. and seems to be one of the only times she calms down and behaves herself. 10000000% recommend them to anyone who needs their pets looked after!”


About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was a kid, for family and friends who are pet parents, I am their first choice when it comes to pet sitting. I have also volunteered at my local animal shelters and to me, the animal's well-being is my highest priority. I have a job with flexible work hours so I can always make time to take care of your best friend. I also work remotely so I can be with your pet for however long is needed. If I am at the client's house, I will follow any and all special instructions involving taking care of their pet. I will make sure the dog is fed, gets plenty of exercise, clean up any messes, and just make sure that they feel safe and cared for.

“Dwayne took care of my crew while attending to family business in another state. It was clear from the start what a great animal lover he is as my big dog immediately wanted to be besties. He got my little guys to warm up to him and sent lots of pics of them smiling. He was attentive in every way. He’s a terrific human and clearly takes great pride in his services. I would highly recommend him and will definitely be contacting Dwayne again for future needs. Do not hesitate to book with Dwayne!”


“Anissa did an excellent job of caring for our pets in our home while we were on vacation. I felt confident that our pets were given lots of attention and probably hardly missed us while we were gone. She followed all instructions I gave her for feeding and exercising everyone plus miscellaneous things that had to be done like bring in mail, etc. I highly recommend Anissa - you won’t be sorry!”


“Kimberly took excellent care of my Sophie! She gave her lots of extra love and attention. She was a great communicator and sent me some adorable pictures! I would highly recommend Kimberly for your pet needs🐶”

Connor L.
“Connor was an incredible pet sitter for our dog, Hoagie, and our cat, Kuzco! From the start, he was warm, professional, and clearly had a natural connection with animals. He made sure Hoagie got plenty of long walks and exercise, which we really appreciated, and gave Kuzco the calm attention and space he needed to feel comfortable. He kept us updated with messages and photos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear both pets were happy and well cared for—Hoagie looked like he was living his best life, and Kuzco was content and relaxed. We came home to two very happy pets and a spotless home.
