“Our kitty became sick from stress while we were out of town. Liz did a great job taking care of him, checking his status, and keeping us updated on how he was doing. She went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and safe.”
“I’ve already left one review for Ellie but have to leave another one as she’s become my go to sitter for Pax! I’m comfortable w her in my house and w my baby. Super easy to communicate with, always respectful of my space: I no longer have anxiety when I leave town and that’s such a nice change.”
“Parker watched our 2 dogs and 1 cat at our house while we were out of town, and took great care of them. He provided photos and updates to let us know all was going well. We would happily hire him again. Thanks Parker!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, raising my first puppy on my family farm at 10 years old. Since then, I’ve worked professionally in a boarding facility where I supervised group play, monitored behavior, and made sure every dog stayed safe and comfortable. I also have hands-on experience in a shelter environment, working with animals of all temperaments, including shy, reactive, and high-energy. This has taught me how to read body language, build trust, and adjust care to each individual’s needs. I focus on creating calm, enriching experiences for all kinds of animals, whether that’s a structured walk, playtime, or just giving your pet the patience and attention they deserve. Please let me know if you have any questions in booking me for your next walk or stay! Caring for animals is something I intentionally build into my weekly rhythm. I am typically available Monday through Saturday and have a flexible, open schedule, so I can give pets the time and consistency they need throughout the day. I also run my own art business, which allows me to work independently and stay flexible. This means i’m able to be fully present for each visit, whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or a calm check-in for more sensitive pets. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I enter. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, boundaries, and body language so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and low-stress. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s established routine. I’m especially mindful with shy or reactive animals, giving them patience, space, and gentle consistency to build trust. My experience in boarding and shelter environments has taught me how to read behavior, prevent conflicts, and create a safe, secure environment for pets of all temperaments.
About: I’ve take care of cats and dogs for 20 years. While I grew up with both, I have a huge passion for cats! Whether it’s playing with wand toys or hiding treats, my family and friends know I’ll take excellent care of their cats while they’re away. As for dogs, I grew up with a Golden Retriever and Maltese, so I’m well-versed in taking dogs on walks, feeding them, and even giving them a bath! My schedule is flexible right now so I am always able to take care of my pets when needed. I take care of my cat daily and also help with my relatives pets. I have one cat and make sure she’s fed twice a day, using the litter box, and getting exercise. When I’m at your home, I’ll be sure to interact with your animal and make sure they’re not missing you too much!
“Lilly was so great! She kept me updated with photos and stayed responsive throughout the stay. She left my home as she found it and even took the trash out! There was a crazy storm during her stay and she assured me the pups were safe and well cared for. Would love to use Lilly again!”
“Daniel was fantastic! He took amazing care of both our dogs, cats, and house. It was the most stress free experience I’ve ever had on vacation. He sent daily updates and photos, tidied up the home, and followed our dog’s routine making it a seamless transition. Our rescue who struggles to be around new people warmed up to him quickly. I highly recommend Daniel! We will definitely be using him again for any future trips.”
“Nate was totally awesome, he took perfect care of our high energy border collie pups while we were away. He was diligent in the care we requested, always respectful and most importantly I could tell our dogs were happy and satisfied when we got back from our vacation. I would 100% recommend him for your pet care needs!”
“This was our first time leaving our pup that has health issues. Our minds were at ease knowing Erin was there giving her all the attention she needed and then some! Loved the consistent check ins and photos and how well the house was cared for overall!”
About: I’ve been walking dogs since I was 12! I currently have three adopted dogs (one is a 1-year old!) and have experience providing in-home care for other dogs. I’ve done basic obedience training with all my dogs, and would be happy to work with yours. I have experience administering regular medication (orally only). I also go on short runs with my dogs. If you have a high-energy dog we can talk about that as an option! I work full-time. I am available mornings and evenings every day for drop-in visits. On weekends, I have full availability for drop ins. I also offer pet sitting. I’m always careful to respect a dog’s individual needs & boundaries. I’ll be sure to care for your pets (and your home) as I do my own. I’m happy to provide your dog with regular walks, runs, or company!
“Emma stayed with my cat Patrick for a week while I was in another state for work. Patrick needs some special attention and takes daily medication. She did a great job making sure he was taking care of and comfortable! Additionally, she communicated with me well and made sure to send me some pictures every day!”
About: Hi! I’m a retired student-athlete finishing my master’s at OU. I’ve had dogs my whole life and absolutely love spending time outdoors. I’d be so excited to care for your pets as if they were my own! I have experience with dogs of all ages — from tiny 8-week-old pups to sweet senior dogs. I’m active and love going on walks, whether it’s with my roommate’s dog, my best friend’s dog, or hopefully yours next! I’m an early riser who loves starting the day with some fresh air and a good walk! I’m available most mornings until about noon, and again after 5 p.m. Wednesdays are wide open for me, so I’m available all day. On weekends, I’m free early in the morning through noon, and then again from 5 p.m. into the evening. I’d love to spend that time hanging out with your pup! I love spending quality time with animals, whether that means playing fetch outside, going for walks, or relaxing on the couch together. I truly just enjoy being around dogs and making them feel happy and loved. I’m also very punctual and responsible when it comes to feeding schedules, walks, and bathroom breaks, you can count on me to care for your pet like they’re my own.
“I cannot speak highly enough of Jennifer! She house sat for my 5 mo old puppy and two senior cats, and my garden for six days, coordinating with veterinarian to deliver medical care to my sick cat and spending most of her time with my animals. She worked on training my pup and got him back into a good routine! She is super communicative and gives you the kinds of updates you want to hear about and sends lots of photos. She follows directions to a tee, so I never had to worry! She kept the house clean. I will definitely be asking for her again! 6 stars”
“Karen did an amazing job with our pups and our home! We got pictures everyday and it made our vacation so enjoyable! We came home to happy and healthy pets, and the house just as clean as we had left it. Thank you so much, we will definitely be using her again!”
“Lilia was amazing with our rescue pup, Berkley! She is super calm and kind - we could tell our Berkley already felt comfortable around her the first time she met her! She sent us many photos throughout the weekend. She was very communicative and professional. We would recommend her to any friend or family member!”
“Samantha was very quick to respond, easy to work with, and understood the care needs for our pups. She sent a few pictures and updates during her stay, we would definitely book her again!”
“This was our first housesitting experience, and Erika was great! She was an excellent communicator before, during, and after. Bonus: she left the house in great shape as well. Thanks Erika!!”
“Kelsey took wonderful care of our house and garden. She followed all our instructions conscientiously and even left us some gifts commemorating our dog Mr. Tigs who recently passed away. She's awesome!”

This was our first time using Rover and our first time working with Christina, and as people who are new to town without a pet-sitting network yet, we were understandably a little nervous leaving our home and animals with someone new—especially for a 10-day international trip. We could not have been luckier to find Christina. From the start, she was kind, friendly, professional, and incredibly reassuring. She cared for our crew as if they were her own: two border collies (one very outgoing BC who demands constant attention and one shy, anxious BC who prefers to be hand-fed) plus a nocturnal, vocal cat. She handled every personality with patience, understanding, and genuine care. Christina communicated consistently and thoroughly, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Because of her, we felt confident leaving for such a long trip—and we returned to happy, well-cared-for pets. Not only has Christina become our trusted pet sitter, she has truly become a treasured new friend. We would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for exceptional care, professionalism, and kindness.
Kylee stayed in my apartment over the weekend and was absolutely amazing with a dog who cant be around kids or other dogs. Extremely response, overall super nice person. I came home and my freaking bed was made and the dishes were done!!!!! I mean come on, I dont think my dog was the one that did those things. This is someone you want with your dog.
This was our first time having Ella come to our house and watch our 3 boys. She did a great job. Sent pics throughout the weekend. Walked our energy filled 4yr old Aussiedoodle and communicated so well with us. We’ve already booked more dates with her. Thanks so much Ella.
