“If you're second guessing using Kaytie, DONT! This was our first time having someone come to the house to take care of our girls and we were incredibly nervous but Kaytie went above and beyond each time. She is the kindest most understanding person ever, please use her you won’t regret it!”
3. Zayne W.
“Zayne was a dream when it came to finding someone to care for our pets! He was flexible and willing to work with us on our departure date, we ran into some issues! Zayne was super friendly and out-going! He was so great with our dogs, they seemed very happy when he came to meet them before we left for vacation. He came a few times a day to let them out and make sure they had food and water. Zayne treated our dogs like they were his very own pets. I felt very comfortable allowing Zayne into our home and would definitely use him again and would recommend him in a heartbeat!”

About: Animals are the biggest source of joy in my life. I have been caring for animals since I was a child, beginning with large animals of all kinds and needs on my family's ranch. As soon as I entered high school I began volunteering at local clinics and shelters. I have been a professional in the veterinary medicine/shelter care industry since I was 17. I have been a veterinary technician for years and have an all encompassing experience history, including cats, dogs of all sizes, small animals (rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, etc), reptiles, cattle, horses, sheep, pigs, seniors, babies, and special needs pets. Animals have always been and will always will be one of my greatest loves and passions in life. I would love to get to know yours and provide them with exceptional love and care when you need it. I am currently working in specialized home care full time, so I have fully open availability to give your pets all the care and attention they need! I am skilled and experienced with any and all pet needs. I am trained in fear-free training techniques and industry standard safety protocols. I can supervise interaction, work with crate training animals, and keep pets and their feeding/walking/medication schedules separate if need be. I am fully capable of handling most medical needs your pet may have.
12. Elizabeth B.
“Liz stepped up and sat with my dog Jade in the most stressful situation. I had another sitter line up (not with Rover) and on the day before my husband and I were to leave for our trip the other person cancelled on us. I had used Rover in the past with great results but the person who cancelled was a co-worker…. Anyway I reached out to Liz and went to meet her before going on our trip. She was fantastic and made us feel so comfortable. When we arrived home from our trip Jade came out to meet us then went immediately back inside to show us her new friends lol. That’s always a good sign. I would definitely recommend Liz to anyone looking for a pet sitter. I have recommended her to other friends as well she is a great person and loves her animals!!!”
13. Nikki C.
“Nikki is compassionate and devoted to all animals. Nikki has watched my dog for me off and on for almost 8 years. The love that he shows to my dog when watching them brings them comfort and ease while I am away, he always treated my dogs like they were his own. Over the years I have known Nikki, he has worked in other dog watching positions and doggy daycare where he always has great stories about the dogs he is around and you can tell that he is driven to do better.”
14. Riley B.
“Riley walks my dog 3 times a week for me for the last year, While I’m at work. Zoie my Pitbull loves her. She is very punctual and reliable.”
15. Caitlan T.
“Caitlan has dog (and cat) sat for me twice, each time for over a week. Both my animals have specific medication requirements and feed instructions, all of which were followed and executed flawlessly!! She is also incredibly trustworthy and reliable, giving peace of mind that everything and everyone is well cared for.”
16. Michelle M.
“Michelle loves animals like her own children and will always take care of any animals she comes across from. She would be a great candidate to be a caregiver.”
17. Lacy M.
“We have been blessed to have found such a loving person to take care of our 4 legged child while we are gone on vacations. Lacy has taken our dog to her house to dog sit as well as stayed at our house to take care of our Romeo. I highly recommend Lacy as pet caregiver.”
18. Emily V.
“Our dogs love it when Emily comes to our home. She has cared for them multiple times when we’ve had to be out of town. They are always happy and content when we return so we know they are well cared for.”
19. Kristen R.
“Kristen took amazing care of our sweet and older dog while we were on vacation. I Ioved getting daily pictures and updates. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. I will definitely use Kristen again!!!”

About: I have had dogs all my life. I have pet sat for my friends and family for 3 years. Dogs are the best animals and I love getting to see all the different breeds. My dogs are very friendly 2 year and 1 year old bernedoodle that would love to have a visitor to share their toys with. I have a large dog friendly back yard with a 6 ft privacy fence. The back door stays open the whole time someone is home so that the dogs can use the doggie door when they want. I have a very flexible schedule. I have the ability to work from home when needed. With adults in the home there is usually only a 3-4 hour time period that the dogs are home alone. My house is pet friendly, doggie door to allow the pets to go outside whenever they want. I have cameras set up in the back yard to check on them when I am away from the house. Daily walks around the neighborhood.
