“OMG we went on vacation for three weeks and left our cat and our home in the care of Lilian, who was a rockstar. She took care of everything, followed all of our instructions and when we came home this time our cat was completely at ease. Usually when we return home from vacation, whether it's a week or longer and we have somebody stop in, we hear it from the cat for a good two weeks waking us up early in the morning rauling, but this time Bella just showed love and has been 100% normal. We would hire her again in our heartbeat. Best decision we ever made!”

“We have used used Rover many, many times of the past few years for our two large dogs and two cats. Theo S is absolutely the best house sitter we have ever had. Far exceeded our expectations! Will definitely book again without hesitation!”

“I had a last-minute adjustment to my vacation schedule and needed a sitter and found Shayna. She was super flexible and accommodating, and came to meet my dogs and learn their routine the same day! Shayna provided excellent care for my dogs who are anxious and can sometimes be difficult to care for. I would absolutely use her again for overnight services or walking anytime that we are traveling and she is available! Thank you for taking such good care of my girls💙🐶”

“Indigo stayed for a few nights to watch my dog and cat giving them lots of cuddles walks and keeping me apprised of how everyone was doing with frequent updates and photos. Indigo left the house spotless and would be welcome back anytime.”

“Emily helped us out with a last-minute booking and she was great!! Emily communicated well, took great care of our pets, and is very friendly. She sent lots of pictures and updates. Thanks, Emily!”

“Philip watched my cat while we were away. He arrived on time and communicated effectively. He followed all the instructions thoroughly and made us feel like our cat was in safe hands.”

“Sarah has dog sit for us several times and is always amazing. She takes such good care of both dogs, and we know they are in good hands! She always communicates throughout her stay and sends lots of photos. We will definitely keep using Sarah when we go away.”
“First time using Avery and she was wonderful! She arrived at the agreed upon time, communicated well and sent daily pictures of Ranger and Daisy. She followed instructions for feeding and engaged well with our dogs for play. When we returned our dogs were happy and had obviously been well cared for. Avery stayed at our house since our dogs do best in their own home. She left the house spotless. We will definitely book with Avery again.”

“We highly recommend Jenna. She was the perfect sitter for our dog and cat. Phenomenal communication and what’s more, we came home to an immaculate home! We couldn’t have asked for more.”


“Thank you Mikayla for taking care of our little guy! Tucker is a special little Yorkie with health concerns requiring constant monitoring. Mikayla stepped up and delivered reliable excellent care. Oral medication and special dietary needs were taken care of. She communicated with us and sent pics of our guy which was a relief. We could relax and have peace of mind. Bonus, she left the house clean and tidy! We already have our next trip booked! Thank you again!”

“April is WONDERFUL! She took great care of our 14 year old chihuahua mix; with medical and mobility issues, fear of strangers and a finicky eater - he is a challenge. April and he became friends immediately and he has never been cared for better. She is the best dog and house sitter we have ever had, going way above and beyond. We are going to use her again and highly recommend April for your next dog sitting.”

“So happy to have found Hannah! We have a very large irish wolfhound mix rescue dog who is very anxious. Hannah did a meet and great before our initial booking and she was terrific with him. Was very patient and calm and just let him drive the meeting. While we were away, she was very communicative and provided lots of pictures which made us feel very comfortable that he was being well cared for. She did all that was asked and even had to handle meds for our pup. With her experience and comfort level I won’t hesitate calling on Hannah again to take care of our Charlie.”

“Julia was fantastic. She took really good care of my dog and cat. She is a reliable, trustworthy and confident pet sitter. I appreciated her giving me updates on how things were going while I was away. My dog can be leash aggressive, but it did not seem to be a problem for Julia. I highly recommend her.”

“Nathan was wonderful - providing loving care for my two dogs. He was on time, offered support when my dog sprained her ankle, and attentive to their needs. Thank you Nathan!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience providing overnight pet and house sitting for stays ranging from a week to 10 days at a time. I’ve also helped family and friends with basic dog training and behavior support. As a lifelong animal lover, I genuinely enjoy the companionship dogs bring and love keeping them active, engaged, and happy through walks, outdoor adventures, hikes, playtime, and plenty of affection. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. As a small business owner with a flexible schedule and a few part-time commitments, I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, cat care, feeding, and house sitting, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. While I occasionally need to step away for client appointments, I am typically gone for no more than 4–5 hours at a time and always make sure pets receive timely meals, potty breaks, exercise, and attention. I appreciate advance notice whenever possible so I can plan accordingly, though I may be able to accommodate same-day requests depending on availability. When caring for pets, I like to take time to get to know each animal and build trust at their own pace. I believe every pet has a unique personality, so I try to follow their lead and create a calm, comfortable environment where they feel safe and secure. Depending on the pet’s needs and temperament, I provide enrichment through playtime, walks, outdoor time, and plenty of affection. Whether a pet is energetic and social or more reserved and independent, my goal is always the same: to ensure they feel cared for, content, and as comfortable as possible while their owner is away.
“We are so fortunate to have found Kadence.She has a calm,soft demeanor and was unfazed by my fearful Chihuahua barking at her.Once Finn realized that I was leaving he jumped onto her lap and watched me go.That never happens.Kadence sent pictures that assured me that Finn was laying calmly with her.It was a huge relief for me to be able to spend Thanksgiving with my family knowing that Finn was in good hands.Kadence is professional and was here when she said she would be.I highly recommend her.I’ve already booked her,again,for a weekend.”

“Maddox was a great dog sitter. The animals loved him and were very well behaved. My home was cleaner than I left it and the puppies were happy boys all day. Would definitely recommend.”

Jennifer was great - she came to our home for 3 nights that we were going to be out of town to take care of our 10 lb. chihuahua mix. The house was left spotless and our dog seemed like she had a really great time while we were away (which isn't always the case). We'll definitely be booking again for our in-home pet sitting needs.

Sarah has dog sit for us several times and is always amazing. She takes such good care of both dogs, and we know they are in good hands! She always communicates throughout her stay and sends lots of photos. We will definitely keep using Sarah when we go away.
