“Meghan was such an amazing sitter for our pup! She was super responsive and communicative throughout her whole stay. I had no worries while we were out of town that our sweet boy was well cared for. She’s the best so if you can have her take care of your pet, do it!”


“McKenzie was amazing with our crew. Including keeping us up to date on one of our pups who has a medical issue that requires multiple medications and feeding times. It’s especially hard to leave a pet that isn’t feeling well by McKenzie did a great job. My little dog, who is a bit standoff-ish, let her pet her with a few minutes of meeting her. We hope to use her again!”


“Oli was very communicative, left our house cleaner than we left it, and our pup was so well-taken care of for the two weeks we were gone!! We could very much tell when we got home, and by the funny tidbits Oli sent us that showed how much she was in tune with Maddie! We would definitely use Oli again! And so appreciate how happy Maddie was and how clean everything was upon our arrival! When we came home in between her departing and us getting back, she even had calm music playing for Maddie! Oli is a gem! ❤️”


“Paula was amazing with caring for my baby girl, Maggie. I knew there was going to be trouble when I returned. Yep. Maggie is spoiled rotten. I could tell Maggie loved Paula”


“Mariana was great with our dog and two cats! Our animals loved her and she kept our house very tidy after staying there. We would definitely rebook with her again when we go out of town.”


“This was our first time using Rover and it was a great experience. Our cat Paintball is often shy around new people, but when Megan came to the house to meet her, she didn't hide and she let Megan pet her right away! While we were away, Megan was great at sending updates and pictures. When we got home, the house was just as we'd left it. Paintball is anxious in stormy weather and it was nice having the peace of mind that Paintball had an emotional support human while we were away :)”


“Cindy was wonderful. She took excellent care of our senior cats while we were away for the holidays. Kind, thorough, and very communicative, we knew she was taking great care of them so we could relax on our travels. Very grateful for that! Recommend Cindy highly!”



“Emily did a fantastic job caring for our critters and home while we were away. She provided daily updates, photos, and even a video or two. We really appreciated her good communication and reliability. Thanks for a great experience!”


“We are so lucky to have stumbled on Kim’s profile. We foster tough dogs, and it’s always tricky when we go out of town. Kim took care of our two feral fosters for the weekend, and did an amazing job. Many people would get discouraged by their lack of affection and overall behavior, but Kim recognized it as fear, and handled it accordingly. She followed all my directions explicitly, kept my boys safe, and maintained the cleanliness of my home. We so appreciate everything Kim did, and are already planning to book with her again.”


“Erica was great taking care of our new pup and old cat. Great communication and we had no worries while she was taking care of the house and animals while we were out of the country. We will book her again when we go on trips!”


“Sarah was very attentive with Luna and she gave consistent updates. She was able to take the booking last minute and I am so appreciative that Luna received the same care she gets when I’m home. I look forward to having an opportunity to book with Sarah again in the future”

“Seline was super helpful and great house-sitting our dog and cat when we were out of town for the weekend. She provided photo updates each day and communicated quickly throughout the stay.”


“Rachel was wonderful. She arrived promptly and did an excellent job of taking care of our animals. She gave us updates and left the house pristine. We would recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a cat and/or dog sitter!”


“Rachel was fantastic with our pets!! She sent numerous pics and was always extremely communicative of her schedule. We’ll definitely be using her again!”


About: I have 3 cats and 2 mice, so I have a lot of experience taking care of cats and small animals. I love dogs and have pet-sat for my friends with small and medium size dogs I work a full time job Monday - Friday. I am available to do drop-ins before 7:30am or after 4:30 pm on weekdays. I am always available in the evenings or weekends. I will follow whatever guidelines the owner's give. Otherwise, my base care is to give dogs 2 walks a day and at least 30 minutes of playtime for both dogs and cats. Ensure the pets are fed and gone potty/clean litterboxes.


“Noel is amazing. She’s kind, attentive and connected easily with my dogs. She sent pictures and texts during the weekend and addressed their needs exceptionally well. Teddy & Pip were happy and relaxed when we got home.”


“Kaleigh watched our dog overnight this weekend and was very communicative throughout the time we were away. She sent multiple pictures and let us know how our dog was doing. We appreciate her taking such good care of our pup for us!”


“Nia is wonderful! My pups are anxious around new people and they warmed up to her so quickly. She was excellent with communication — from sending updates about how their days were going to asking questions if anything out of the ordinary came up. After a long trip, I came home to two very happy dogs and a pristine apartment. I'm incredibly grateful for Nia and highly recommend her if you're looking for a compassionate, trustworthy petsitter!”
