“Marie was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous to leave Brady, but Marie made it so easy! She updated us multiple times a day and was always communicative. She left our house spotless and maybe even a bit cleaner than we left it! We would recommend Marie to anyone!”

“Emily was wonderful with our pups and cats! She housesat for 5 days/nights and took great care of everyone and everything! She sent us texts and photos and asked about things that might be concerning, like one of our cats who has cherry eye (I hadn't mentioned it, as I don't really think about it and he hid in our initial visit) and she was concerned that he might have gotten his eye scratched. Very thorough and sent me a text of her perception of their personalities....spot on!! The dogs LOVED her too! I would use her for petsitting without hesitation! Extremely trustworthy young woman!”

About: Hi pet parents! In addition to 10+ years of personal experience caring for dogs and cats, I also have 2 years of professional experience working for a local reputable pet sitting service where I cared for dogs, cats, and other house/farm animals. I’m passionate about this work and ensuring that in every moment your pet is in my care, they feel safe knowing their needs will be met by a trusted companion and caregiver, with the option to cuddle and/or play as much (or little) as they’d like. I have training and first-hand experience in teaching puppies how to behave at home and on their first walks, administering medications, senior and special needs dog care, protecting pets from unleashed dogs on the street, heatstroke prevention and protocol, and CPR. I look forward to getting to know your pet’s unique personality and needs! I have morning, midday and afternoon availability. I work a part-time job with a flexible schedule, and with enough notice can make any day of the week work for your pet’s care. I take the needs of each pet very seriously and understand they differ for each one. Any instructions and details you provide will be carefully read and followed to ensure that your pet is not disrupted from the routine and activities that give them a sense of safety. For all of our safety, I also have multiple people aware of my Rover schedule and location so that if communication is lost or unestablished by a certain point, these individuals will make sure we’re checked on in-person by local authorities.

Melissa is chill and flexible. She was able to meet Sophie a few days before staying over. She sent pictures and kept me up to date. Melissa is true animal lover. I’d 100% recommend her!”

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover and devoted pet parent, and my two favorite things in the entire world are being around animals and being outdoors. I've taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and I'm looking forward to meeting your furry friend! Whether your doggo needs a little extra exercise or you are headed out of town and want to make sure your dog/cat is cared for, I'll always make sure they are content and living their best life while in my care. Your pet's safety and happiness is of utmost importance to me; please feel free to let me know if your pet has any special considerations, I am always happy to accommodate requests as best I am able. I am a musician, and I have a lot of flexibility during the day to look after your pets. I travel on occasion for work, but my availability is updated frequently and will reflect the dates I am unable to care for your pets. I take care of every animal as if it were my own. I am attentive, quick to respond, and will make sure your pet is safe and comfortable at all times.

About: I have had lots of different types of animal experiences since I was a child including always having a cat in the household and volunteering with animal shelters. My specialty is cats but I have a few years experience with sitting and walking dogs as well. I am always up for a new challenge and am very capable and adaptable. I have worked in many animal shelters, as well as managed a cat shelter, so I am very comfortable approaching all animals. I have a very flexible schedule because I run my own cat oriented business and make my own hours. My whole life is animals, so I love to fit them into my life as much as possible. I currently only offer services in my clients’ homes, and to ensure that their pets are always safe and secure, I am very on top of communication and checking in with my pet parents. I like to review all instructions together to make sure I don’t have any questions and know exactly what contacts are (vet, ER, friends) for emergencies. I always respect other people’s space and will leave things exactly as I left them, if not better. Letting someone into your home to take care of your fur family requires a lot of trust and I feel honored when someone allows me that privilege.

Pauline always does a phenomenal job with my pups. She is my go to dog sitter and I always try to book her specifically for my travel. My dogs are well taken care of and even my picky eater eats well for her. She always leaves the apartment so clean and goes the extra mile to take out the trash, vacuum, and wash the sheets. I’m so grateful for everything she does!

Kinsey was an absolute pleasure to have as our sitter. She was incredibly kind, loving, and attentive with my puppy, Theo. You could truly tell how much she cares — Theo didn’t even want her to leave! 😄 She kept me updated, treated him like her own, and made the whole experience stress-free and comforting. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter.

Ran did an amazing job watching our cat Cannoli while we were gone over the holidays! We had another sitter cancel last minute and Ran truly saved the day. She had great communication, sent lots of pictures, and left our apartment spotless. We were so reassured during our trip that Cannoli was in the best hands. We will absolutely book with Ran again in the future!

Karina and Teresa, both came to hang with our pups during Christmas while we took a day trip to visit family. Not only did they come in clutch with accepting the kinda-last-minute holiday need, but they were PERFECT for our dogs. They were super communicative and kind and from the minute they met our dogs, till the moment we got home, our dogs loved them and we knew they were in good hands. I’d say book them immediately, but we also selfishly want them all to ourselves! You can’t go wrong with trusting Karina and Teresa with your babies ❤️

Excellent communication and commitment to my sweet beast! This was my first time hiring someone to care for my dog and it felt very comfortable. Arabelle also left my home tidy and cleaned the bedsheets which was such a kind gesture given I arrived nearly 1am. Clearly her solid ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating continues to ring true!

As usual… It was an another great experience of leaving our dogo at home with Garrett. I have known Garrett for over 3-4 years now. My dog loves him, and he understands how to handle different dogs differently. He is an educated young boy, and perfectly fits the need when you want to trust someone with your house keys.

I can't recommend Andrea enough! She has been an incredible house and dog sitter, and I truly feel at ease every time I leave my pup in her care. As a self-proclaimed helicopter dog mom and daughter of a Veterinarian, I’m not the easiest person to reassure, but she handles it with so much patience and understanding. She treats my dog like her own, with so much love, care, and attention. I always get regular updates, photos, and videos throughout my trip, which completely puts my mind at ease. It’s clear how much she genuinely enjoys spending time with my dog, and the feeling is mutual! My dog gets so excited every time she shows up, and honestly, we all know how much a dog’s judgment matters! Beyond caring for my pup, she also takes excellent care of my apartment. Every time I return, it's exactly how I left it clean, tidy, and clearly respected. It’s such a relief to know both my home and my dog are in such trustworthy hands. If you're looking for someone reliable, communicative, and genuinely loving toward your pets, Andrea is a great choice!
