“Anna house sat and pet sat for my 3 cats. She did a great job, and even my very shy cat made more appearances than usual. The house was clean, the cats were happy, and I felt that I had a very responsible person that I could depend on.”


“Luke did a great job! He house sat with our dog over the weekend. Left our house super clean - did a through run down of daily activities when we return. Our dog was sad to see him leave. He arrived early which was a bonus bc we needed a minute to go over specifics before we left. Great job highly recommend 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personal care and attention I give to each pet I look after. Even though I’m fairly new to professional pet-sitting, I’ve already built great connections with the pets and families I’ve worked with. I take the time to learn each animal’s routine, personality, and quirks so they feel comfortable and cared for while their people are away As a high school teacher, I’m naturally organized, dependable, and used to managing busy schedules - which makes pet care a seamless and rewarding part of my routine. I typically pet-sit on weekends, holidays, and during school breaks, but I’m also available for morning, evening, and overnight visits during the school year. Caring for animals is a wonderful balance to my teaching job; it gives me a chance to slow down, connect with pets, and enjoy quieter moments in my day. Whether it’s early morning feedings or evening playtime, I’m always happy to work pet care into my daily routine because it’s something I genuinely love doing. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, favorite activities, and little quirks so they feel comfortable while their family is away. Whether it’s regular feedings, playtime, medication, or just quiet companionship, I’m there to provide the care and attention they’re used to. I also make sure to keep the home clean, safe, and tidy — including bringing in mail, watering plants, and maintaining a secure, lived-in feel. I believe pets do best in their own space with someone who treats them like family, and that’s the kind of care I strive to provide with every stay.

“Gina did a great job petsitting our cat and dog for an overnight at our house. In addition to scheduling a meet and greet before house-sitting, she kept us updated with her arrival and departure time and shared photo updates with us during the stay. Our place was clean and tidy when we returned, and our pets seemed happy and content!”


About: I just started doing this because my dog was attacked while I was on vacation and I never want anyone to feel that pain in loosing their best friend like I did. My pup and I get up around 7:30 and he goes out and gets breakfast and water and we walk around the property… sometimes we go to the park in the afternoon and find a trail to walk… and then he eats again at 5:30/6 depending on when I get home from errands after lunch… not to mention the occasional game of fetch while I’m home… also I’d need to know of any allergies or meds you give your dogs and the types of foods treats and games they like… each dog has their own personalities so it’s always hard to tell It depends on the owner.. if ur cool with me being at ur house or if the dogs would come to my place … I do have a yard but it’s not fenced so if the dogs go out they are put on a tie out and I don’t leave them out alone (unless it’s my pup but he’s trained) …. A typical day would also depend on what the dogs schedule is. Dogs are creatures of routine so taking them out of that routine would mess with theor confidence while their owner is away so I’d prefer to know more about the daily routines you have and work my day around that the best I can…

“Sophia is a jewel. She was great with Lovey my mini Sheepadoodle. Lovey’s used to a lot of attention and is a little on the skiddish side. But they did great together. Sophia is responsible and very engaged. I returned home after 5 days and she had gotten my mail, met up a plumber I had to call and most important Lovey was happy . No issues at all. She ate every meal from day one which never happens. I will absolutely be calling Sophia again!!”


“Adelena was wonderful with our furry friends! We were happy with the updates we received while out of town. She even took the dogs for a hike! We would definitely invite Adelena back to our home for pet care.”

About: I have always had a love for animals. I worked in the veterinary field for about 10 years. I have owned animals of my own since I was a small child. I aspire one day to become a certified dog trainer. I have pet sit everything from cats and dogs to goats and sheep. I do work full time but my father lets the dogs out at lunch time. I’m home by 5:30 so if it’s at my house it will be able to play from when I get home until the next morning. If the pet is not staying with me I will go before and after work and stay over if need be. My pets are extremely well cared for. Up to date on all vaccinations and flea medications. They all get plenty of exercise and have free range of the house when someone is home. They sleep in bed with me at night. I have a large fenced in yard for them to play. They are crated when someone is not home for their safety and to keep them out of trouble.

About: What sets me apart from all sitters is my deep depth for all animals. As a child, I have always developed a love for animals. My love and compassion for animals spilled over into the education field working with students with special needs. Presently, I have four rescue cats, two classroom guinea pigs, and four dogs, one of which is a rescue. I volunteer with my country's animal shelter, and I have fostered and saved many animals. My love for critters is endless. I am a teacher, so teachers do not work in the summer. However, I do work teaching summer school and a camp in June. I can work evenings and remain overnight. I have the entire month of July off. My children are grown, so my schedule is flexible. I can provide references. I live in a secluded area, so when I am home, they have free range. My dogs are leash trained. During the day when I am home, they remain in a crate. I live six minutes from work, so they arent in their crates all day. My oldest daughter lives with me, so when I am away, they are taken care of.

About: I have two small dogs who are my world. I love all types of pets, but can make room in my schedule and heart to take care of your dogs and cats. I will board dogs, but can only stop in and check on your cats. I am currently retired and only work some part-time jobs. I am pretty flexible and will work with families to take care of your precious pets. I have a large farm and home and will crate your dogs as needed. They will love the open space for walks and play. I will keep all pets separated for a more stress-free experience.

About: I’ve loved pets since i could remember, I have a german shepherd of my own. Animals are your sacred kids and need love as well! i’m currently working on part time, 3 days a week. 10hr shifts unfortunately but i’m usually pretty good at accommodating to YOUR schedule when it’s needed! I have my own german shepherd that can keep your fur baby company! I can kennel your dog if needed, and i have a safe yard to play in!

“Ever since I have known Ali, she has had a dog. While she has never pet sat for me (I do not own any pets - I have kids instead) I have been around her and her dogs. She has been a great pet mom and takes the time to work with and train the dogs in her care with patience and attentive care. Due to her love for her own dog(s) I feel like she would be a great sitter for another human's fur babies.”

“I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Melissa to Rover. I have had the pleasure of knowing Melissa for the past several years, during which time I have witnessed her remarkable dedication to animal welfare. She dedicates time and energy to making sure the local animal shelter has clean bedding and towels on a weekly basis. She has also organized bake sales benefitting the local animal shelter. I am confident that she will thrive in an environment that nurtures her love for animals and do well at any job pertaining to them.”
