“Nilanjana is a dream house sitter, came home after a long trip to a very happy cat and beautifully cared for plants. She’s responsible and communicative, no notes - we will definitely be asking her to sit again!”
“Paige did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and house sitting for us! She was also easy to communicate with and followed all our requests. Highly recommend and would book her again.”
“Great pet sitter. Elizabeth was very gracious with changes in time regarding my last minute trip. The house appeared in the same working order and the dog was left happy.”
“I have used several dog sitters from Rover and Grace was wonderful!! She stayed with my pups for a few days while I was away and they got spoiled! She was able to spend quality time with them and sent me updates often! She was prompt to respond to any questions I had. She stayed at my home and left it better than she found it, going above and beyond! I will definitely be booking with grace again and would highly recommend her.”

“Katrina did an excellent job house sitting for us and taking care of our Australian Sheppard. Her communication was excellent with lots of pictures of activities and walks. Our house was immaculate when we came home and noticed that almost all of our dog toys had been used :) We will definitely call upon Katrina again to watch our Aussie and House sit.”
“Jaelyn knocked it out of the park...again. She was communicative & professional. She took great care of Jazmine. She was flexible when my travel plans changed at the last minute. When I returned home I could hardly tell that she had been there for nearly 2 weeks. 10 out of 5 stars for sure!”
“Bailey did a wonderful job taking care of our two pups for the weekend while we were away. She had excellent communication, sent pics to check in, and took excellent care of the house. She left the house very clean, including hand washing the dishes she used while we were away. I would love to have her take care of my pups again in the future.”
“George did a fine job off keeping our dog safe and content. I think they got along well. I felt comfortable having George stay here at our house, and expect to have him here again for our next outing.”
“Alexis was great! Definitely will be booking with her again. She sent pictures of my girls to me everyday and communicated to me how things were going often. She left my house cleaner than how I left it and even took a sweet picture of them and left it on the fridge for me. Thanks Alexis!!”
“Marissa was an exceptional pet sitter! She kept our home and dog, Rusty, safe and loved. She communicated clearly, and shared plenty of pictures. Rusty had a wonderful time, if he had thumbs, he'd give her two thumbs up for sure! We would be lucky to have Marissa take care of our pets any time. Couldn't recommend a more professional and kind human.”
“Kelsey is a dream dogsitter! So reliable, conscientious, responsible, and loving. Both our rescue dogs (one is a “problem child” who can be reactive and difficult) absolutely loved her. I’ve never had a sitter stay at the house—I’ve usually boarded dogs at a sitter’s—but I felt completely confident and at ease with Kelsey in my home. Will be rebooking her soon and often!”
About: I am a student at OSU. I am majoring in animal science. I am a pre-vet student with a focus in animal behavior. I also volunteer at the animal shelter frequently and have received training in animal handling and dog-walking. I am a student with a flexible schedule and am free weekends and weekdays depending on the time. I am always free in the evenings. Just let me know! I am a detail oriented person. I understand that meeting a stranger is stressful for pets. I always make sure to give the pet their own space and follow the pet care instructions. I also love to provide enrichment for pets to get their brains going and help with boredom.
“Ashley took great care of my cat while I was away, including handling her medication and giving her lots of brushing and attention. She was very responsive in setting up the meet-and-greet and attentive to all instructions. She also left the guest room tidy and handled other details like putting out the trash can for pickup. I very much appreciate Ashley's help!”
“Erin is amazing!!! Not only is she punctual but immediately became Baileys best friend. She understands pups and gives them such special attention and care. Best sitter ever!!! You can’t go wrong, we highly recommend her for your fur babies.”
“Jessica was fantastic with our pups. She went above and beyond with communication, sent us pics of the pups while we were away and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for top notch care for their fury friends. Thank you Jessie!”
“Teri was a very reliable dog sitter. She followed our directions and took necessary precautions with our anxious and reactive dog. She sent daily updates with pictures of the pups. I would recommend Teri to anyone looking for a dog sitter! Pups seemed happy when we returned home and the house was left clean.”
“Genevieve took great care of my quirky senior pup and nervous/shy cat, and it was clear from our first meeting that they both liked her as well. Genevieve was easy to work with, communicated well and sent regular updates with photos, and she went above and beyond in following the care instructions I left. I'd absolutely hire her again and I highly recommend that you do, too!”

Kayla goes above and beyond when taking care of our pups. During this visit, she accommodated a last minute modification and was able to help out our anxious dog with her new medication regimen. She’s an excellent communicator and takes the safety of our dogs very seriously. We are so grateful to have her as our sitter!!
