“Joselyn was excellent. I have a very old 16.5yr old dog and she could not have been more attentive and patient. She leaves very detailed notes about the visits and goes above and beyond. We are thrilled to finally have found a sitter we can trust and will definitely book her in the future.”
“Samantha goes the extra mile taking care of our Golden. She shows great care and respect and her constant communication keeps us close to our pets when we are out of town.”
“Arianna was great! She sent pictures each time she was there which really put us at ease since we had never used rover before, she took great care of Honda and we will definitely use her again!”
“Fabulous! She was so understanding of our labradoodle who has a licker problem and so patient with our shih tzu who is scared of strangers. She has tons of energy and my pups were very happy.”
“This was our first time using Rover or trusting anyone other than family with our pets. Shelbie immediately made us feel at ease with how attentive, professional and friendly she was with us and our pets. She was on top of everything and gave our pets quality care and love while we were gone! She provided thoughtful updates and helped our pets feel comfortable and come out of their shells. For the first time ever we were able to take a vacation and have peace of mind. I highly recommend her as a sitter!!”
“Christy came to check on my dog and let her out while we were at work on a routine basis for several months. I am home for the summer now and plan to call on Christy when we need help with our pets again. I felt completely confident relying on her and know that she can handle any situation that might come up. She is patient with my dog’s personality and gave me a thorough report each visit. She is quick to respond and takes her role as petsitter very seriously. I enthusiastically recommend her for pet services!”
About: As a military spouse, I understand how hard it is to find great care at an affordable rate and possibly the last minute. My goal is to provide love for your babies so that you may focus on whatever calls you away without any worries. I work remotely so any needs or schedules for your babies will be met promptly and to your liking. Please prepare a written list that I may follow. Things to expect when dropping off your babies: Your babies will be provided their own space within my sight at all times (until bedtime) and that space can be adjusted to fit their needs (bigger or smaller). They will be provided food, clean water, cuddles, and as much playtime as they need. If they have any special needs I will ask for written instructions and provide those needs as necessary. I can provide as much or as little communication as you prefer and make sure your babies are doing great while away.
“Sara did a great job caring for our cat. She sent multiple (and very cute) pictures every day. It was obvious our cat liked her very much. We were gone several weeks in August so we asked Sara if she would do some outside watering. The yard looked amazing. We were very happy and would highly recommend her to others.”

About: Give your friend the best care possible. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and enjoy all the different personalities. Your pet will have a house with a large yard to play in all day. I’ve had all different types of dogs (labs, German Shepherds, Dobermans, Pitbulls, Yorkies. I currently have one 6 year old cat. Our last dog passed away this past August. I do all my own training and can assist and give you guidance if you need help in certain areas with your dog. I volunteered with a cat rescue in California and helped with many special needs. Together we will play and tire out your furry friend. A tired dog is a happy dog. We look forward to being able to assist you with your pet care needs. Hope to see you soon! Wife is always homes. Which makes our availability pretty flexible. We have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles and birds. I’ve always enjoyed working with animals. As an animal owner, I understand the level of peace it brings knowing your pet is properly being taken care of. Have a very large fully fenced grass yard with plenty of room to run and play. Quiet neighborhood with low traffic to make for nice walks.
About: I’ve grown up around animals all my life. I’ve had dogs in the home, turtles, guinea pigs, pet pigs you name it. I love them all so much! I have one cat of my own. He is very sweet and playful and don’t mind being around friendly dogs. He is very curious of other cats and not aggressive. I typically scoop litter twice a day or more as needed to ensure the litter box stays clean and appealing to the cats. Dogs can be walked in my area or on specified routes as i’m pretty flexible. When it comes to play time, I enjoy keeping cats engaged and can tire out high energy kitties to make sure they are getting enough attention and stimulation. My goal is to ease your anxiety knowing your loved one is safe and cared for while you’re away. If you need anything clarification or something specific please fell free to reach out! I do work full time from 8am-5pm near my home. All services are available everyday. For drop in, I am available before 8 and after 5. I have a spacious loft apartment in a community that has dog walking areas. I have one cat. Your pet must be friendly with cats and not aggressive.
“Best ever! We are new to using any kind of pet sitter, but Noel was above and beyond the kindest nerdy pet person ever! We are super happy to both support a self-employed veteran as well as fellow nerd!”
About: Hi! I’ve been working in animal welfare for over ten years. I previously worked in a small boarding facility and also helped occasionally with a large scale open boarding facility! I have been working and training with dogs since I was 9y old (over twenty years of dog training and competing!). I currently train with my two german shepherds in dog sport now since 2015. I have a quiet household with no children and I only sit one family’s pets at a time. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like individuals and give them what they need then reach out to me! I’m well versed in working breeds, can help with training needs, and manage many different kinds of behavioral quirks in my house as well (from reactivity to resource guarding). I work full time currently and would love to provide boarding for dogs that will be safe, fun, and enjoyable! They will become like my own while at my house and treated with the utmost respect and care. I have a 4ft fenced yard for your dog to enjoy while staying with me and I never leave dogs unsupervised outside to their own devices. I also love to walk pups at the park up the street when I’m home! Dogs are kenneled while I’m not home as a safety measure or depending on the health/size of your dog I could potentially baby gate in the kitchen. I have a large dog pen as well for pups that aren’t destructive, but would like more space when I’m not home!
“Kim is extremely kind and our puppy just loves her! She did a drop in visit for us, and sent pictures of her time with our pup which made me feel at ease. We met up prior to the visit twice for a meet and greet and to go over a few things. I will definitely be calling on Kim again, and I'm sure our pup will be thrilled!”
About: Looking for a dog sitter? Well look no further! Ive been taking care of dogs ever since I was little. I have 2 very friendly kids that will run around and play with your fur baby. Plenty of space for your furry friend to stretch out and just lay around being a dog. I love pets but the kids are scared of big dogs, so size does matter. Get ready for plenty of pictures of your baby having an amazing time. Just send me a message and I'll be sure to get back to you in a reasonable amount of time. Any questions you have I'd be happy to answer. I look forward to hearing from you and see you very soon. I am a mother of two looking forward to show your pet a great stay. If you need a walk or a getaway I'm here. We are willing to love on your pets and go for walks. Plenty of love to share with your fur babies from the whole family.
