Lori is officially Aunt Lori to Barley. We've had Lori watch Barley 5, times this summer? We can tell how loved Barley is while we are gone because when we come home, she's just like- oh heeey my other parents. Cool! Lori is family. She loves our pup and we are forever grateful that she keeps taking us on.

Elizabeth was great! We had never used a pet sitter before and I was slightly nervous despite the fact that my daughter owns an independent pet sitting service on the West Coast. Elizabeth exceeded our expectations and was a joy to work with. She sent us updates and photos throughout the week. Our cats are shy and she was able to bond with them. I really can't say enough great things about Elizabeth and her care for our pets. I'll definitely use her again!

Ellie did an amazing job house sitting Zeke for the weekend! It was great to see the photo updates and I could tell Zeke was happy the whole time. Zeke really enjoyed all of the time Ellie spent with him, and I she did the best dog sitting job one could ask for.

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!

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!

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!

At our meet and greet, my first impression of Daniel was, he has a very calm demeanor. Murphy is a very large and energetic dog. Daniel didn't flinch when he came barreling in towards him. He stayed with Pebbles and Murphy for 3 days. He was very early the first day. His communication is OUTSTANDING! I received so many pictures and updates. He even took out the trash! On one day, one of the dogs had vomited before he got here. He sent me pictures and asked what I'd like him to do. The next text I got said that he cleaned it all up, and that there were towels in the trash that he brought with him. He is so prepared, punctual, responsible, and trustworthy. I'm so glad I found him on Rover. I will most definitely book him again if he's willing to come back. I can't say enough good things about Daniel. I was able to relax and truly enjoy my time away with my new grandson and not worry about our fur babies. They were in excellent hands.

Here’s a polished, glowing review you can use: ⸻ Laurie was absolutely incredible! She stepped in for us at the very last minute and handled everything with such calm professionalism. Our dog, Archer, can be a bundle of nerves, but Laurie had the patience of a saint. She treated him with so much kindness and understanding. We are so grateful for her flexibility, her gentle approach, and the genuine care she showed. Highly recommend Laurie to anyone—especially those with anxious or high-energy pups. She’s truly the best!

About: I have always had a love for all kinds of animals. Ive enjoyed watching family and friends pets as well as caring for my own pets in my apartment. I'd love to get to know you and your unique pet and make them feel even more loved and appreciated. I have past background knowledge on pet nutrition,hygiene and behavior traits. I am currently starting school in March to gain my pharmacy technician certification, I would have open availability to provide assistance for you and your pets. I do have a dog with me, her name is Maze. Maze is a rescue, she stays in my room and going on walks multiple times a day as well as dog parks, she would love to have a friend. Maze eats 2 times a day once in the morning and once in the evening with a snack (can of tuna/shredded chicken) in the afternoon. Maze talks walks in a harness to provide safely,we do have an extra! I have cats as well, the are allowed to freely roam around with little latches that keep bedroom doors open just enough for them to go in and out, they are also fed twice a day with wet food and have dry kibble out for free feeding through the day, since they have smaller stomachs they eat more frequently, howver the dry food is only filled once it runs out completely, the cats also have a running water fountain as well as other water bowls on elevated surfaces. Their are plenty of pet beds,toys and treats, if their are any allergies please let me know!

Roselynn house sat for us and watched our year old kitten. Belle is usually very shy around new people, but warmed up to Roselynn immediately. We got updates and pictures while we were away which made us feel very relaxed and happy. She is extremely trustworthy and not only took great care of our kitten, but great care of our house. We came home to a very relaxed and happy kitten!

Ellie was fantastic! She took such great care of Mina and went above and beyond by cleaning our home, so it was spotless when we returned from vacation. She was an excellent communicator, kept us updated throughout our trip, and sent plenty of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend her!

Megan did an amazing job with my two dogs. One of them can be reactive on the leash, but she managed her well! My dogs eat fast (to the point where they get sick) so I’ve came up with some creative ways to feed them. Megan was kind enough to gift them slow feeder bowls and I’m sure they’ll be a game changer! I came home and they were both so happy and well behaved. My house was cleaner than it was when I left. She even washed the kennel blankets! Will definitely be requesting her services again for my next trip

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.
