“Felisha was amazing. My cats generally hide from everyone and one of them was out and interacting with her each time she came. She took amazing photos and left great check-in notes. She also was not phased by my last minute request to administer medication due to finding out my cat required a few weeks of antibiotics only a few days before we left. Would recommend Felisha to everyone and will definitely hire her again!”

“Mackenzie is an exceptional sitter! She jumped in at the last minute for us and was so communicative, punctual, sent great pictures, and we came home to a very happy and cared for pup. We will definitely be hiring her again!”

“Samantha has been doing drop ins with my dog for a couple of weeks now. She's been great, my dog loves her and is so comfortable with her, which is a relief as a mum of an anxious dog. She followed all my instructions and requests to the T, and has been flexible and accommodating to my changing schedule which is a great plus.”

About: Hi I’m Abby. I am looking for a fun and active hobby, dog walking seems to fill the niche. I bring a few years of experience working with dogs of all temperaments, from high-energy pups to strong pullers and reactive behavior. With a solid understanding of dog training techniques, I ensure safe, enjoyable walks tailored to each dog's needs. My goal is to provide peace of mind for pet owners and happy, well-exercised dogs.

“Mindy is the absolute best!!! My little guy was in the best of hands. I never worried for a moment! From the minute we met at the meet and greet I knew I could enjoy my time away. Mindy will be our go to person from now on!”

“Megan was fantastic! She was on top of her messages and got back right away, did a meet and greet with Koko ahead of time to make sure they were a good fit, and took good care of him (and lots of adorable pictures) while she was over at the house! Koko was happy , and so were we! Peace of mind. Thanks, Megan, for taking care of our baby.”

“Stevie is very professional and has an obvious love of animals. She has given us such piece of mind when we have to be away longer than is good for our puppy. We highly recommend Stevie.”

“Kelsey was wonderful with my cat, Luna! I left for 6 days and Kelsey was great about coming around the same time, spending quality time with Luna during her visit and even went above and beyond by bringing in my trash can and stopping a beeping fire alarm! I would definitely book with Kelsey again. She sent lots of photos and gave me updates each day!”

“Arianna was WONDERFUL! She took amazing care of my two cats and made sure they had clean litter, water and got in playtime. She took wonderful photos of them (always a bonus!). Thank you so much for taking care of my boys!”

About: Hello, my name is Tosha! As a lifelong animal lover and sitter for 3+ years, I understand your pet is family. From energetic hikes with big dogs to quiet cuddles with shy cats, I ensure they're happy and safe. I'm experienced with meds, complex feeding schedules, and love creating fun, safe adventures for pets, just like I would for my own 3 cats and 2 dogs. Let's chat about giving your furry friend the best care! :) I work a standard 8 am-5 pm job, Monday through Friday. I don't mind staying the night during weekdays. I also do not mind coming before work in the morning to show love and care for your pets, as well as coming over after work for as long as you need. The weekends I'm free 24/7. I view pet care as a privilege that requires both a compassionate heart and a vigilant eye. My approach is rooted in providing a 'home-away-from-home' experience where your pet feels safe, seen, and truly loved. I don’t just offer supervision; I offer companionship. By honoring their unique personality and strictly following their established routines, I ensure they remain happy and stress-free while you are away. Your pet’s safety is my priority, and their happiness is my passion.
“This was my first time using Rover, and I had a wonderful experience with Stephanie. She is a genuinely kind and caring pet sitter. Very conscientious, sending lots of pictures and updates while we were gone and very sweet with my cats. I knew they would be in good hands, and they were. Thank you, Stephanie.”

“I had a short-notice quick trip and Samantha was able to respond and take care of my pets. Her service has been great from the start and this time was no exception.”
“Megan is an excellent communicator and is always on time. I can tell my dogs are getting her undivided attention when she is here with them. She always sends photos of each visit which puts my dog mom heart at ease. So happy to have her as our weekly dog sitter.”


About: I currently care for my own pets, Sesame and Puffy, so I have daily experience with feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m used to paying attention to behavior, routines, and making sure pets are well cared for. I’m reliable, patient, and take pet care seriously. I’m also comfortable following specific instructions to match each pet’s needs. I am currently working part time flexible positions so pet care would fit perfectly into my current routine and schedule allowing me to do drop ins and walks. I care for my pets by treating them like family. Loving them and making sure they are protected. I also spend time playing, giving treats, and walking them.
About: I have always loved all animals! I am definitely a nurturer at heart. I have loads of experience watching pets for friends and family. I have worked with a rescue the past few years and have helped nurse back to health and find homes for multiple cats and dogs of all ages. I’d love to help take care of your pet! I am flexible because I work from home so I am able to navigate around schedules easily. I take care of my own animals daily and have my husband as back up. I give all animals proper care and attention from feeding to cuddles. I provide a safe and trusting environment within and outside my own home.
