“Sydney was awesome! She asked questions to make sure our cat was getting the best care and was extremely attentive to our cat’s needs. She completed care that we didn’t even ask her to do because that’s how thorough and thoughtful she is! We will definitely be booking with Sydney again. Our cat wasn’t even mad we left, haha”
“Lindsey was absolutely amazing with our Cobalt. She took such great care of him and kept us in the loop during every visit. She is very kind and caring and we will be booking with her again!”
“Jaclyn was an angel with my 2 German shepherds as I went out of town. She treated my puppies like they were her own and went above and beyond to ensure they were well taken care of while I was gone. She left each visit with detailed updates and photos which was the best part of my days when on vacation. 10/10 would recommend and use again.”
“Savannah took great care of our kitty! She was friendly, responsive, and kept us up to date with how are cat was doing through notes and pictures. She also kept our cat’s food and litter clean and tidy! We loved having her as a Rover sitter.”
“Marcela did a fabulous job taking care of Chesty while I was out of town. She always kept me informed, asked questions when needed, and showed genuine attention and care for him. Could not have asked for a better sitter. Will definitely seek her services again!”

About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and small animals like guinea pigs. Over the years, I’ve helped care for multiple dogs of different sizes and temperaments, so I’m comfortable handling a wide range of personalities and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy building trust with animals. I take the time to understand each pet’s behavior and routine to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. Whether your pet is energetic or more laid-back, I adapt to what works best for them. I am unfortunately a busy lady, with school and work, but Fridays I will always be available for your pet needs. I am hoping to have more availability as time goes on. i have a fenced yard. i have two dogs who are crate trained and very friendly, so no need to worry about altercations. i am able to keep my fur babies crated if that were to make whomever i am caring for more comfortable, but i also have a backyard big enough for all pets to play if that is wanted as well.
“Amy was amazing! She gave us such peace of mind with her quick responses and daily check-ins! She gave our babies lots of love, and we were able to really enjoy our vacation!”
“I have never used Rover, as we are new to our town and dont have anyone we know close to us. But we needed to go out of town. And I was recommended this app. Blake showed up when I first looked and no matter what I just kept going back to her page. I am so glad I did. I can't be more thankful for the peace of mind she gave me. My fur kitty is about 2 weeks shy of being 20 years old. With an 8/9 spoiled sister. She loved them like their own. Lady couldn't wag her tail hard enough when Blake stopped by. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this a very positive experience. If I could rate higher than a 5 I would. 🐈Jager and 🐕Lady will miss her!!!”
About: I've taken care of multiple types of dogs from an early age. I also used to have a dog named Gary (my brother named him from SpongeBob) when I was younger, but my mom couldn't afford him anymore. During school breaks, pet care fits very easily into my routine because I have a much more open and flexible schedule. I’m able to prioritize regular feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day without time constraints from classes. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, maintain their routines, and be fully present while caring for them. I think that it's important to spend quality time with pets, whether that's going on a walk or spending time at the park. And also just following the pet owner's instructions as well as understanding their routine.
“Sara offers a phenomenal service taking care of my two kitties. She’s communicative, timely and respectful of all the needs & to-dos I have. I will always use Sara as my go-to for cat care while I’m away from home & highly recommend you book with her!”
“Courtney was the best with my girls! She took such great care of them and gave them lots of love while I was away. It definitely made my older dog that has major anxiety feel so much better she was here to care for them. If you need someone I recommend Courtney 1000%! Thanks Courtney!”
About: I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets for over seven years, including Jonah (Golden Retriever), Jessie (Golden Pyrenees), and Mittens (tuxedo cat). My background includes hands-on experience caring for family animals and taking in rescues reflecting a lifelong dedication to animal care. My current schedule allows for consistent availability throughout the entire week, with mornings/afternoons before 4pm preferred. My availability after 4pm varies daily, so feel free to message to prior to booking! My home is a pet-friendly (and pet filled) environment with a large fenced yard for outdoor play, though most of our time with Mittens is spent indoors surrounded by toys and cozy spots to relax. I have three resident pets — Jonah, a Golden Retriever, Jessie, a Golden Pyrenees, and Mittens, a tuxedo cat — all of whom love playtime and are great company.
“Tracey was the absolute best! She sent updates everyday and took the cutest pictures. I am very lucky to have found her. She is professional, knowledgeable and punctual. She was a wonderful choice to trust with my babies. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
About: I’ve grown up raising dogs throughout my entire life, caring for them from playful puppies all the way through adulthood. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience hosting dog events and working with dogs of all personalities and energy levels. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters and actively supported animal rescue and support groups. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly adore them—every pup I care for gets patience, attention, and lots of love, just like they’re part of my own family. I work from home, allowing plenty of time to spend taking walks, playing in the yard or even a cuddle for nap time! My schedule is flexible, to meet every dogs needs! I have a fully fenced yard, and 2 playful pups that are quick to make new best friends! We have a 1yo Golden Retriever, Jazz, and a 1yo German Shepard/Cattle mix, Cali. I am hands on, giving love and pets throughout the entire day! We have a 2 story home, that is great for the pups to run freely when inside (with a gate if you have any concerns with stairs). I have a pet proofed home, so there is nothing they can get into inside or out!

Nikki was AMAZING! I had an emergency that I never expected. I contacted Nikki and she was available to do drop in visits on my dog. She has great communication, very genuine and warm. I was a bit nervous booking without meeting the person but I was far away and had no other choice. Nikki made me feel so comfortable as she checked in and was truly a god send for me! I will definitely book with Nikki again. From the bottom of my heart…. THANK YOU NIKKI!
Carly took great care of our new puppy Remy. He is definitely high energy and deep in him shark phase. But that did not phase her. Our old lady Gemma is a sweetheart and Carly also gave her some love and attention. Will most definitely be contacting Carly again!
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was reliable, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure my dog felt comfortable and loved. I received regular updates and photos, which meant so much to me. It’s clear she treats every pet like her own. Highly recommend!
Kimberly was great with our cats! She was always on time, sent us photos, and kept us updated with any changes. She was very attentive with giving medication to our one cat and adjusted her approach until she accepted the medicine. Would 1000% recommend Kimberly!!!
Damon was great! We had a very last minute need for someone to let our Golden out to potty d/t running late from work, he responded promptly and was at our place within 10 minutes- letting our pup out and playing catch with him. Very Dependable! Thank you again Damon! Will definitely talk soon :)
Christina did great with my dogs! Started the drop in on time and stayed the full time that was booked. She reported she had no issues with the pups and they were happy and calm when I returned home. I have her booked for overnight stays that I know my pups will be well taken care of.
