“Joplin only had 24 hours for the first stay with Johanna, but she trusted her enough to not only cuddle - but to do the sideways, belly out sleep! Johanna left the house completely spotless, which is always appreciated. Would definitely use her again!”

“Lauren was so great with our dog, who unfortunately got a bit sick right before we left on our trip . Lauren was very flexible with the changes and was responsive throughout, providing lots of pictures and updates that made us feel more comfortable leaving our dog! The house was also perfectly clean when we got back. Thanks you!”

“Coleen did a wonderful job watching Ollie while we were out of town for a few days. We received frequent updates and upfront information related to time spent with our pup. Coleen was very professional and responsive, we will request to book again soon! Thanks Coleen!”
“Kayla is simply the best! She spent the day with my puppy after she had been spayed and took great care to ensure she stayed quiet, got her meds on time, and was entertained. She was patient with her puppy antics and provided me with lots of updates. I will be recommending Kayla to anyone needing pet care in our neighborhood!”

“Aleia was awesome. She sent us frequent photo updates of both our normally shy pets looking so happy and playful! We came home to happy pets and hope this is the first of many sits with Aleia!”


“Katelyn was wonderful! She took excellent care of my pup, sent me regular updates and photos, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and a house that was left in great condition. She was reliable, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her!”

“Doris was wonderful! I’m so glad she was able to take care of my girls last minute. I got updates on all of my girls throughout the day. I’m so appreciative for her not only taking us on last minute but also while one of my girls is trying to recover from an upset stomach and requires a little more TLC. She’s one of the first sitters I’ve used using Rover, & the first time my pets were taken care of by someone other than friends and family and it was a great experience for us. I will definitely be reaching out to Doris again when I need a pet sitter.”

“Elijah took great care of my cat while I had to travel for work. My cat had medication that needed to be administered, and there were no problems. So happy! Thank you!”


“Jenna is great! She was very responsive and our dog loved her. When we got home, it was obvious that he has been well taken care of and enjoyed his time with Jenna. Would very highly recommend!”

“Tanisa is the best! She watched my 2 dog boys at my house for the weekend and it couldn't have been more perfect. Even my skittish, near-sighted husky mix sat in her lap! We can't wait to have her again!”

“Wanted to take the time to leave a review for Haylee because she did an amazing job taking care of our 11 year old doggie Tuna. She was very sweet and caring. She did overnight sitting at our house and was very flexible to our needs. She did an amazing job and took great care of our home while we were away. She listened very closely to our requests for Tuna’s health and she followed our instructions very carefully. Tuna has specific feeding schedule and supplement regimen and Haylee made sure to follow it very closely. She is very good giving updates and she sent the most amazing pictures of Tuna. She kept us updated throughout our trip making us feel totally confident that Tuna was in great hands. Haylee is a very sweet girl and very responsible. We will definitely be booking with her again. Tuna looked very happy and well taken care of. Thanks again Haylee !!!!!!!!!”


About: I’m a cat parent to two very sweet, rambunctious long hair kitties and grew up with both dogs and cats. Both of my cats are medication dependent so I’m very comfortable with animals who need a little extra care. I also regularly care for my friends’ and neighbors’ pets. I’m a freelance illustrator with a very flexible schedule so I’m available to work around each pet’s unique needs and schedule. My goal is to make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible without disruptions to what they are used to when you’re home. I am available for drop ins as well as staying at your home and will adhere to your pet’s schedule for meals, walks, play, and potty breaks.
“Carla is wonderful! My husband and I both had last minute work trips come up at the same exact time, and Carla was available to watch our two dogs on short notice. She stayed in our home to watch over them since they are both older, and they couldn't have been in better hands. She was diligent, made sure we had care instructions, and sent photos and updates for us through her whole time watching them. My flight was delayed due to weather, and she even stayed a few hours extra to make sure they were taken out and comfortable until I could get home. She was even willing to come back in the evening to give them dinner and take them out again if my flight had gotten delayed even more. She is so sweet, and she left our home in immaculate condition. We will absolutely be reaching out to Carla to take care of our boys again!”

“This is the second time Sarah has pet sat for us, and both times she took great care of our dog and our cat, and left our house immaculate. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Cheryl did a great job looking after our kittens on such short notice! She spent the day ensuring the kittens had plenty of attention and sent several updates throughout which gave us piece of mind. Thanks so much for everything!”


“Emily is the kind of sitter who goes above and beyond for our dog, Abby. Most recently, Abby had some medical issues while we were gone and Emily took care of them as if Abby was her own dog. While it’s not her primary job, she also takes great care of our home while she’s here. The house is as clean if not cleaner than it was when we left—which has not been true of every sitter we have had. Emily is an A++ Dog Sitter and if she is available when you need her, stop looking around and book her immediately. Your pup will be glad that you did!”

If I could give Zoia more stars I would!! She has been amazing!!!! Her helpful responses have gone above and beyond. She sends pictures of my daughter's cats all the time. Our family just can't thank her enough for all she has done during a stressful time in our lives! Katherine Romanoff

Dorion saved us on the way to vacation when another sitter canceled that same morning. He was available and he took care of Teddy and Miss Kittay in a very loving manner. He spent the night at our house and nothing was out of place. The dog and cat were happy to see us when we got home and all is well thank you Dorion

Wafae took such good care of our kitty while we were gone. She was communicative and thoughtful, and even made an extra effort to stay the night with our cat to make sure she could do the last feeding before we got home. We will definitely book her again and would recommend!

Lauren was great to work with. She stayed with our two pit mixes for 4 nights at our house while we were off getting married. They can be anxious and the one barks a lot in fear and she handled it so well. Getting them out for walks as reactive dogs can be tough. But again she worked her magic. House was clean and left in great shape as well. She gave us daily updates of our goofballs which made this so easy. Thank you Lauren!
