Joyann was a great great sitter. She was very attentive to everyone and shared pictures daily with us. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing all was well cared for. She's excellent and such a gem.

Madison was so great!! I’m kind of a crazy pet parent and was very nervous but Madison eased all of my concerns so quickly and was the best, even my very shy cat came out of hiding so quickly with her. I will not at all hesitate about asking Madison to housesit in the future!

Natalia was absolutely amazing with my 12-year-old pup, Phoenix 🐾—who is definitely a picky, demanding little diva 😄. She handled her meds, nighttime wake-ups, and constant need for affection like a total pro. I got great updates and could tell Phoenix was genuinely comfortable and cared for during her overnight stay. It’s not easy trusting someone with a high-maintenance senior dog, but Natalia made it feel effortless. Will 100% be booking with her again—highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About: I’ve taken care of many animals since I was young. I love all types of animals and animals tend to love me. I promise to take care of your pet as if it was my own :) I work full-time, but I have a pretty flexible schedule as far as when I can drop in and out. I’m available full-time on the weekends, but my schedule has never interfered with my being able to take care of an animal. I currently sit outside of Rover and now I’m on here :) I’m very observant of animals. I currently have a senior dog and so I’m hyper aware of what he does. So, this makes me hyper aware of other people‘s pets as well.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up on a farm caring for many different types of animals, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve also trained several of my own dogs, giving me experience with basic obedience, routines, and handling pets with different energy levels and temperaments. In addition, I’ve pet sat for friends and family many times, caring for pets as if they were my own by providing plenty of love, attention, exercise, and dependable care. I’m passionate about creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for every pet I meet. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule during the weekdays and full availability on weekends. I currently work full time during the week, but I’m able to leave on breaks and also accommodate early morning visits, walks, feedings, and check-ins. My weekends are completely open, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for easily fits into my lifestyle. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also pay close attention to their behavior and needs to ensure they are happy and stress-free while their owners are away. I have experience handling animals with different personalities and energy levels, so I’m patient and adaptable with each pet. Whether it’s walks, potty breaks, play sessions, administering basic routines, or simply providing companionship, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also respect my client’s home by keeping everything clean, organized, and following all instructions carefully.

About: In my home, every pet is treated with love and care as if they were my own. They’re free to roam, snuggle on the couch, or nap wherever they feel most comfortable. My home is completely pet-proof, with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, always supervised! I always go the extra mile to make pets feel safe and cared for. Once, I was given a dog with no crate or blanket and told he was house-trained. He wasn’t. With patience and love, I helped him adjust, gently crate-trained him, and gave him a cozy blanket so he could feel secure. Moments like these remind me how important it is to treat every pet like family. I kindly ask that you bring your pet’s essentials, like food, bowls, and favorite items, along with their routine so I can keep their days feeling familiar and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and happiness mean everything to me, so I cannot accept animals who show aggressive behavior. Caring for pets fits seamlessly into my weekly routine as I’m available every day. I am currently attending university, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I maintain calm, pet-safe spaces, follow feeding and potty routines, give slow introductions, double-check leashes, and offer comfort like blankets, toys, or crate time when needed.

About: Hi there! I’m Will — a college student, part-time employee, and full-time animal lover. I have availability in the mornings and afternoon/evenings, and I’d love to spend that time with your furry best friend! I’m a proud wiener dog parent, but I’ve also cared for bulldogs, shih tzus, and medium-sized pups. Beyond dogs, I’ve had rabbits, chickens, and cats, so animals have always been a big part of my life. Caring for pets with love, attention, and affection is my top priority. Fun fact: I also help bring pets over from Colombia and Mexico to the U.S., in case you’re ever curious about that process! I’m available in the mornings and evenings during the week. On weekends, I’m available 24/7 — so if you ever need me to stay overnight or do multiple walks a day, I’ve got you covered! I love taking dogs to parks! If your pup has a favorite spot, just let me know — I’ll be happy to take them there. I always make sure to follow your instructions carefully to give your pet the best care possible. Plus, I’ll keep you updated with fun pictures and videos so you can see how your furry friend is doing!

This was my first time using a sitter, I had previously had two senior dogs who required little maintenance and my daughter would swing by to see them. Sadly they both passed a way last year, and I have a one year old now who has only been with me six months when I needed to leave. He had been going through a phase of being suspicious of new people in the house, but he warmed up to Gabby after a few hours when she sat on the floor with him in the red chair I have for sitting on the floor! My cat who hates everyone except my son in law (including me), also came and hung out with her, which I regard as a win!

About: I’ve lovingly had furbuddies since I was a child from small-medium breeds as well as cats!✨ Their presence and time with us is precious and should be treated as such, so it’ll be a pleasure to take care of your beloved companions, whether check-ins, chow time, playtime, or potty breaks. I will be sure to provide a happy service! :) I’m currently almost schedule-free as applying to med school and part-time jobs, so am available most times as of now! Preferred caretaking during morning-evening, but can accommodate. I will follow any instructions left for me to care for your companion if wanting a certain caretaking service done however which way! I do not have pets of my own having moved to the city.

About: For as long as I can remember I have had a great love for animals big and small! This love has led to carrying to animals of my own, and friends’ and families’ as if they were my own! By having me as your sitter you are giving your pet a nice loving and caring new friend as well as helping a college student continue her education! I am currently a college student with mainly online classes and would be happy to fill any free time I have with your furry friends! I have believe all animals tell us how they feel with every expression they make. I take signs of comfortability and discomfort into extreme consideration whenever I work with any type of animal

Best babysitters by far!🤎This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone, mind you, he’s a 140 pound big boy but Brando and his mom took the absolute best care of him! I was so nervous at first but throughout the whole time, they were constantly updating me with pictures of my big baby & constantly keeping me posted with any updates as they were also administering meds. Atlas is a high energized dog that requires a lot of attention & that is what he got on this mini vacation! There is no one else I will be going with moving forward to take care of Atlas! I will 110% return! Thank you for taking care of my big baby🐶
