This was the first time we left our puppy Fiona. We left her with Evangeline and couldn’t be more pleased. Fiona loves her. Our puppy and home were very well taken care of. We would definitely use Evangeline again!

Briana was great with our pups! She stopped by for a home visit before the dog sitting, and was great with communication before and during the stay. The pups looks happy and well cared for when we returned.

About: Hi! My name is Mackenzie, and I’m a 22-year-old veterinary technician working full-time during the weekdays. I’m currently pursuing my goal of attending veterinary school, and caring for animals is truly my passion. I have four years of hands-on experience working in veterinary medicine, which has given me strong knowledge in animal health, behavior, and safety. In addition to my clinical experience, I grew up raising farm animals, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I have extensive experience with both dogs and cats, including administering medications, monitoring for health concerns, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and secure in their environment. Whether your pet needs extra patience, structured routines, or just lots of love and attention, I’m happy to provide care tailored to their individual needs. I also understand how important peace of mind is while you’re away. I’m very comfortable using technology and will provide consistent updates, photos, and communication so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family member and treat them as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! As a full-time veterinary technician, animal care is already an integral part of my daily life. I work weekdays in veterinary medicine, where I’m actively involved in monitoring patient health, administering medications, and ensuring animals feel safe and comfortable in a clinical setting. Because caring for animals is both my career and my passion, incorporating pet sitting into my routine feels very natural. During the week, I’m available for evening and overnight care, and I have greater flexibility on weekends. My schedule allows me to maintain structured routines, which I know pets thrive on. I’m used to balancing responsibilities efficiently and making sure each animal in my care receives individualized attention and consistent monitoring. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my approach is always centered on safety, routine, and individualized attention. In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible. I follow feeding instructions carefully, administer medications as prescribed, monitor for any changes in behavior or health, and ensure pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I understand that minimizing stress is key, so I take extra care to provide calm, patient interactions tailored to each pet’s temperament. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a structured, supervised environment with plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection. With my background raising farm animals and four years of hands-on veterinary experience, I’m comfortable managing pets of all sizes and personalities, including those who may need extra patience or medical support. No matter the setting, I provide consistent updates, photos, and open communication so owners have complete peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own—ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have personally cared for dogs since 2009. Over the years, I’ve had hands-on experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments — from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and specific needs to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, administering basic care, or just providing companionship, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority! I’m currently working at an Elementary School full-time, but I always find time to take care of fur babies! I am available full time on the weekends, and available after 3 pm on the weekdays. I have one cat, he is safe around other cats, and is all up to date on his vaccinations. I have been pet sitting for about 4 years and have reliable references, if needed!

Where do I begin??? I can't begin to thank you for all you did for Owie. Your care and compassion for my little guy went above and beyond, not to mention staying with him in my home to make it easier for him. I loved my daily pictures and updates. Made my trip easier to enjoy knowing he was in your care. You truly are one of a kind. Cant wait to book you again and im sure Owie can't wait for me to go away so he can see you again!!! Thank you so very much!!

Anna took great care of my shy pup and my home even when an unexpected winter storm arrived at the start of the sitting gig, and went above and beyond cleaning things up when she was on her way out and making sure my snow-loving dog had plenty of safe play time despite the weather

⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot express enough gratitude for Crystal! This was my first time using Rover, and I was incredibly anxious about leaving my dog, Money, who struggles with severe separation anxiety. Crystal stepped in last minute and provided the most loving and attentive care I could have hoped for. She was patient, understanding, and went above and beyond to make sure Money felt safe and comfortable. I truly felt at ease knowing he was in such great hands. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about your pet as if they were her own, look no further—Crystal is amazing! I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!

Leah did an absolutely amazing job with our furbabies. She house/pet sit for an entire week and was so accommodating considering our house is in a major renovation. She sent updates with pictures daily sometimes multiple times a day. We loved seeing how happy they were being at home with Leah. Highly recommend for house/pet sitting and for check in visits. Leah is officially apart of our furbabies pack

About: On Saturdays and Sundays I am free after 2pm due to work I treat every animal as if it were my own Either letting a cat sit on my lap until I can’t feel my legs Or training in basic commands and manners To throwing a ball or stick until my arm is numb I love animals and all the fun that goes with it ** I did have to raise my rates due to rovers fee** I have been taking care of animals since I was little but really got into it around 7th and 8th grade Walking peoples dogs and putting up flyers at my local pool I have many repeat clients for over 3 years so many great pups(had to stop because of highschool) I helped a lot of them loose weight from daily 20-30 minute walks I still remember every dog I walked and boarded Nothing has changed except now I work morning shift as a security guard but my wife is home to take care of any dogs kept with us After I’m done with work I then take over with walks and playing in the backyard Everyone will get plenty of water If anyone gets dirty then it’s bath time or at least a good thorough wipe down Your pets will be treated like my own kids while they are being taken care of with the Diamond family After I’m done with work at 2pm I come home and spend all the time I have until bed time with my animals or as I call them my kids Walking playing in the backyard playing fetch and tag and even keep away which never lasts long for me I have a fenced in yard and plenty of toys to offer When it’s very hot we do some playing in the yard and then it’s time for a walk and then we take a 45 minute to an hour break for a nap or rest and then we do it all over again All animals should feel welcome in my home and spoiled decently as my animals are All animals that stay with me must have a collapsible crate brought in with them so that nobody gets into anything they shouldn’t at night Night time is crate time as we have cats we let wander at night

Matthew was great. He met our very specific expectations as over-worried parents to 2 pampered and sensitive rescue dogs. We'll hire him again.
