“Luke did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 dogs. He was reliable and on time. He showed a genuine interest in our pets. He cleaned up after the dogs and left things organized.”

“Neige watched our cats for the first time this last week and they seemed to do well while we were gone. Neige was good about sending me pictures and updates and when we arrived home everything was clean and we'll maintained in the cats' main area. She even checked in on them an unexpected extra day when our flight was canceled and we were delayed in our journey home. I would definitely hire her again.”

“Could not have asked for a better first time Rover experience. Kassidy was able to make fast friends with our very nervous boy. She will be on our speed dial moving forward. I appreciate all of her daily updates and photos!”

About: I have taken care of dogs all my life. I used to be a dog mom of a chihuahua terrier named Petunia before she passed to old age. I’ve taken care of both puppies and elderly dogs. I have helped administer medication to dogs. I work well with both small dogs and big dogs. I have taken care of massive dogs before (my aunt owns a Great Pyrenees). I have watched multiple friends and families dogs. I work well with playful dogs as well as calmer dogs that love to cuddle up. I’m currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your beloved pets. Any days I have listed are my days off meaning I have more time to spend playing and loving your dogs! I always have some treats for my fur babies that I sit (I always double check to see any allergies pets may have before bringing treats over). If needed I have extra leashes and portable food and water bowls.
About: I'm very experienced in taking care of adult and senior dogs. My family frequently hosts pets for family members. We currently have no pets in the home after the loss of our senior dog, Eddie. We're excited to welcome your pets into our home and love them as our own! I am working from home permanently and would be available during the week and weekends to take care of your fur babies! I have a very wide range of availability. I have a fenced in yard, and a family that absolutely adores animals. With two kids (13 & 10), your pet will get as much playtime as they desire.
About: From the time I was a baby, there has never been a moment where my family did not have any animals in the home, and my love for animals I inherited from my grandpa. I knew when I had my own home, I would also have pets. After adopting my sweet fur babies, finding a reliable and trusting pet sitter was the most important thing, and having the assurance that they were being loved on and taking care of the same way that I do was the utmost importance. After some time and consideration, I thought I could offer my services as a pet sitter and the same love and caring for other animals that I have for mine, as well as offering the peace of mind pet parents need when trusting another to watch their beloved pets. I have personal experience with different breeds of dogs from big to small as well as cats, and have had animals from puppy/kitten stage to old age. My Fila girl completed 4 levels of training at Tri-State K9 University as her background was unknown when I fostered (and later adopted her), but though her behavior it was clear she had been through a rough time and suffered from fear and anxiety. With patience, love, and training she blossomed out of her shell and out came the sweet, playful girl I knew she truly was. I know some animals need extra care and handling in order to trust someone, which is why I know having the best pet sitter is so important and want to bring my love, experience, and patience to you and your beloved pets. I am mostly available early mornings and evening, but I am willing to work with you to find the best schedule to care for your animal(s). My sweet Fila can be picky with her canine friends, so I will not be able to provide services in my home but I am happy to take your dog on walks around your neighborhood, a nearby park, and play a game of fetch (or whatever your animal prefers) in your yard. I also have a wonderful fiance and stepchildren who would also love to help provide extra love and hugs to your animal(s) if allowed.
“I really appreciate Savannah and have asked her to be my cat sitter in the future! Savannah is kind and considerate and did a great job watching my cats when I was away. She sent me pictures of my kitties, like I asked for, and she appraised me of their behavior when I was gone. I have confidence in her and I am happy that she is watching my babies when I am away. I have only positive things to say about her! ??⬛”

Absolutely incredible care for our Felix. Nathalie made sure our dog was fed, checked on, played with, and kept happy while also cleaning any messes around the food area and home. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we always felt informed and reassured. Very dependable, caring, and professional — highly recommend!
Maddix did a great job with my dogs. Very reliable and dogs loved him. I was concerned because I have 3 lg dogs full of energy but he is a young man that has lg dogs himself so he is experienced and was very comfortable with mine. Just what I was looking for.
