“It is good to know someone reliable is there for a bit when my animals are home alone! Alexis has been phenomenal and it is appreciated not only by me but by the pups as well! Thank you!”

“Joanna was absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend her for any pet care needs on Rover. She took amazing care of my dogs, followed all of my instructions perfectly, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She was kind, professional, and very prompt in responding to every message, which made communication easy and stress-free. Joanna clearly knows how to navigate the Rover app and used it to provide excellent check-ins and check-outs, always with great photo updates that showed my dogs were happy and well cared for. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“This was our first time using Lydia to care for our 18 year year-old, diabetic, insulin dependent Russian blue cat. She did an amazing job and Dimitri loved her. We will be using Lydia the next time we travel. We Highly recommend Lydia.”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from horses to dogs, cats, birds, and geckos, providing professional, gentle, and loving care to pets of all kinds with patience and dedication. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I make time each day for feeding, exercise, cleaning, and giving animals attention, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for In my home or a client’s home, I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s needs. I follow feeding schedules, ensure fresh water, provide exercise and playtime, clean living areas, and give plenty of affection. I also monitor behavior and health, keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free in a familiar environment
“Attentive and responsive sitter. Victoria communicated with us during an unexpected neighborhood emergency, working with first responders to permit her access to our pets and relayed pertinent information to us. She thoughtfully informed us of issues which might point to a health concern. Will recommend and will certainly request her services again.”

“Sarah is awesome! We needed someone to stay with our newly adopted 7 year old German Shephard as he has separation anxiety and would have destroyed our house if left alone. When we returned Duke was calm and the house was in tact. We appreciated the updates with pictures and videos. Sarah truly loves animals and we look forward to having her care for our fur baby again”
“Cheryl was simply great. Bonded with our cat which is no easy task. She deserves 5 stars. She'll be first on our request list and we hope she is available for cat care in the future.”
“Carol was so wonderful to work with and amazing with my sweet Bodhi! She updated me on her check ins and sent pictures and videos. I would highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies. She loves them like her own and makes sure they have everything they need!”

“I cannot recommend Emely enough! She took such incredible care of my dog, Winston, and treated him like he was her own. She kept me updated the entire time with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. Winston absolutely adored her—he came back happy, calm, and clearly loved. Emely went above and beyond in every way, and it truly shows how much she cares. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and attentive to watch your fur baby, Emely is the one.”

About: I offer loving, reliable pet care in a calm and relaxed environment. I specialize in well-behaved pets and focus on making them feel safe, comfortable and at home. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs over the years and truly treat them as part of the family. We had beloved dogs growing up, and I’ve also had cats—including a rescue cat which we loved very much. I'm naturally attentive to each pet's behavior, routine, and comfort. I take the time to understand their personality, so they feel calm and secure while you're away. I'm also friendly, respectful, clean and easy to communicate with. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in caring and responsible hands. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to give your pet plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I have a flexible schedule and can adjust my day to meet your pet’s needs. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment for pets in my care. Since I work from home, pets are rarely left alone and receive consistent supervision throughout the day. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I take pets out on leashed walks and supervised potty breaks to ensure their safety at all times. I also have a spacious outdoor patio area for fresh air and short breaks. Inside, I maintain a clean, comfortable space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow each pet’s routine closely and make sure they receive the attention, care, and affection they’re used to. In a client’s home, I respect their space and instructions, keeping their pet’s routine consistent and stress-free.

About: I have taken care of everything from a fish, guinea pig, and dog to horses and donkeys. I have officially been a pet sitter for family friends for about a year, but I have taken care of animals since I was 12. My schedule is generally flexible. I am currently in college Tuesdays and Thursdays 11-2, pick my sister up from school every weekday, and babysit about 3 hours 2-3 times a week, so I won’t be available for pets who need a lot of time. I like having a routine, so I can easily follow any specific instructions, such as feeding schedules. I treat all animals I take care of as if they are my own. I can send frequent updates about your pets and love to stay in communication with you during services.
“Misty came by for a third meet and greet with Mia and we went over feeding instructions and the walking route for her morning post breakfast walk. Mia recognized Misty and was wagging her tail. Misty was good with Mia and there were no problems walking, or coming in the house. Misty was on time, even for early morning visit which was appreciated. Thanks!”

Victoria has been an amazing pet sitter. She helped my family in an emergency type situation by being available to care for our exotic birds. She stays in constant contact by giving email updates and pictures. She has gone above and beyond in our situation. I told her she has earned her angel wings for sure!

Nikki always goes above what we expect. One of the cats was on the top of the cabinets and knocked off a bowl. It shattered and Nikki texted me to find out where a broom was. I told her and she not only cleaned up the mess from the bowl, but she swept part of the living room and dining room as well. She is a great cat sitter and we are very very happy that we found her.
