“Kaylan was an amazing sitter from start to finish! If my dogs could write this rating, I’m sure they’d give her 5 stars. She sent frequent updates, lots of pictures, and wasn’t afraid to ask questions whenever she needed clarification, which gave me peace of mind. She even took my pups on little adventures to explore new parks and treated them to pup cups, with permission of course! It’s obvious they were cared for, and got lots of love and attention while we were away at work. I came home to 2 happy pups and a cared for home. Would definitely recommend Kaylan for a reliable, caring sitter and happily booking her again!”


“Aubrey was very responsible, followed through with all the feeding and medication requirements of our dog, walked her, and, most importantly, gave her cuddles and love. It is never easy to leave your fur baby under the care of someone else but we felt totally at ease leaving her in the care of Aubrey.”

“Eli took great care of Kona and our house while we were away. He was very responsive before our trip, and sent great updates while he was staying with Kona. We look forward to him dog and house sitting for us again soon.”

“Bob was an amazing sitter for our corgi and husky! He was on time for both the meet & greet and the actual booking, and was very professional and kind throughout the entire experience. He sent us multiple daily updates, photos, and videos, and it was clear both dogs were getting lots of playtime, attention, and love. Our corgi usually gets extra emotional when we come home, but this time she seemed so happy and relaxed, which really showed us how well cared for they were. Our house was also left in great condition. We’re very happy with Bob and will definitely book with him again!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was a teenager and now have a dog of my own. She’s super friendly and she’s almost always with me! I have a pretty flexible schedule. I work from home, 7am - 3pm usually, Monday through Friday, and I can usually take walk breaks during the day. I have a friendly dog named Lola who would love company in our daily walks, hikes, and dog park adventures! I can also watch your dog for extended stays at my house or yours.
“Crystal was amazing! She helped us last minute and worked with our changing schedule. She did a good job of accommodating all of Roxxys needs. I can tell that Roxxy made a new friend! I would definitely recommend her!”

“Wendy was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She stayed at our home for about 10 days while we were on vacation, caring for both our house and our dog, Basil. Basil has some separation anxiety, so we were understandably a little nervous about leaving her. Wendy immediately put us at ease. She sent daily updates and photos of our baby girl, and it was so reassuring to see Basil happy, relaxed, and clearly bonding with her. Wendy is a true natural with dogs. She was incredibly attentive, patient, and loving with Basil, and we came home to a happy, healthy, and very well-cared-for pup. She also took wonderful care of our home—bringing in our mail, watering and looking after our garden, and leaving everything in fantastic condition. It’s clear she treats your home and pets with the same care and respect that she would her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would recommend Wendy without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and dependable pet sitter. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again in the future. She’s the best!”

“Alec has watched my 2 dogs twice when I've gone out of town and has been great! He kept me up to date with pics of the dogs and updates throughout the day. He maintained their regular walking schedule and even took my more energetic pup on extra walks. Both times I've come home to 2 happy dogs and I would definitely book him again in the future.”


About: Hello! I am an animal lover who has recently relocated to the SD area. I regularly have sat for family, friends, and word of mouth recommendations for over a decade. I have cared for pets as small as tree frogs to a home with multiple large pit bull mixes, to a diabetic cat in need of insulin injections twice a day. Whatever type of pet you have I promise to love them as much as I love my own! I am currently at home full time. I regularly take walks to get out of the house and would love to have a companion join me! I love animals and couldn’t imagine spending my day in a better way than with them! I do have my own cat which means for multi day jobs I would occasionally want to visit her (my partner is there to care for her) but I am available to spend majority of the time at a clients home. I have a fenced back yard for your animal to run around in. I would keep your pet in the living room and kitchen are with me while I leave the bedrooms for my cat. I love going on walks so I will be more than happy to take your dogs out with me ( no dog parks or off leash areas).
“We booked Luis again but this time we asked him to watch one of our dogs at our hotel room during our wedding day. Just as before, he was thoroughly professional and friendly. We felt at ease at our wedding knowing that Luis was taking great care of our dog. Looking forward to booking him again soon!”

“Tuan went above and beyond! Very responsive, and loving with our pets. Went away for over a week and Tuan took special care of our dog and cat. With loving updates we felt so comfortable that they were in the best of hands. Looking forward to our next sitting with Tuan!”

“We felt comfortable immediately with Claudia staying at our home and watching our pups. She seemed to take such incredible care of them, that we felt safe to enjoy our trip. She sent regular pics and updates and the pups seemed so happy. Our dogs also needed medication and she had no problem administering it. She also took great care of our home and cleaned up. We are so glad we found Claudia and can't wait to book her again!”

“Lauren is just THE BEST!!! It’s always hard & nerve wrecking leaving your fur babies, but I can genuinely say Lauren took such amazing care of them and was always sending pictures of them, it put our minds right as ease. She totally spoiled them and we can tell our cat & dog loved her! She even cleaned our place and left it looking way better than when we left! I can’t recommend Lauren enough, and coming from an overly paranoid pet parent I can confidently say she treated them like her own & I wouldn’t want anyone else taking care of our fur babies! Trust me, she’s the best!”

“Nelsybeth is fantastic! Very communicative and amazing with our high energy puppy. She also won over our other dog with severe anxiety. Love her and will definitely be booking her in the future!”


“Sarah did an excellent job of taking care of our 3 fur babies and our home! One of our cats has food allergies and another eats things that are not food, and she navigated all of that beautifully. She sent lots of pictures and videos of our dog and cats so we didn't have to wonder or worry about how they were doing at home. The only down side is now our pets are spoiled and will be expecting more from us. We will definitely be booking Sarah again!”

“Jordan was absolutely the best! She was communicative and sent a lot of great photos of Charlie and Hudson. We knew they were having a wonderful time and in very good care with Jordan. We will definitely book Jordan as again for our next trips.”

“Bella was very kind and patient with my senior dog. He unexpectedly had a procedure the night before and Bella was very attentive while watching him and followed all instructions.”

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and currently care for three large dogs (50–90 lbs) and one rescued cat of my own. Two of my dogs have been with me since they were puppies, and I've personally handled their training and daily care. I also helped raise a litter of eight puppies from birth until they were 8 weeks old, ensuring they were healthy, socialized, and ready to join their forever homes. Through my experience, I'm comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and needs, including administering medications and providing extra reassurance to pets who may be nervous or adjusting to a new environment. I regularly take my own dogs on 1–2 hour walks and prioritize both physical exercise and mental enrichment. I also bathe, shave paw pads, clip nails, brush, clean ears and brush their teeth. I have experience with basic obedience training, including sit, stay, leave it, kennel training, potty training, and recall training. When appropriate, I'm happy to reinforce basic commands during visits using treats and positive reinforcement. Above all, my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I already care for three dogs and a cat of my own every day. I'm typically most available during evenings and weekends, which allows me to dedicate quality time to walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins. Depending on my schedule, I may also have availability during mornings, afternoons, and some holidays. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care that fits each pet's individual needs and routine. I believe every pet is unique, so I always strive to follow each owner's preferences and routines as closely as possible. Whether that means specific walking routes, favorite toys, feeding schedules, or other care instructions, I'm happy to adapt to what makes your pet most comfortable. I am experienced with administering medications and am patient with pets who may be a little stubborn or nervous. Through years of caring for my own dogs and cat, I've become very familiar with canine and feline body language and understand how to communicate with animals through both verbal cues and body language. Safety is always my top priority. I stay proactive during walks, playtime, and daily care to ensure pets remain safe, comfortable, and stress-free. I also understand how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so I'm happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos throughout my visits. If requested, I can provide more frequent updates so you always know how your pet is doing while you're away.

Finzel took great care of our home, our cat, and our dog while we were out of town for over a week. She had excellent communication and we appreciated the updates and pictures she sent each day. Finzel was very flexible when there was an issue with the A/C and we had to send a repair person to the house. It was wonderful to come home to happy pets and a clean house! We would absolutely hire Finzel the next time we go out of town.

We had an excellent experience with Kierra pet sitting our cat during our recent summer vacation. She was always polite and punctual, followed all of our instructions carefully, and took wonderful care of both our cat and our home. She kept the house clean and gave us great peace of mind by sending regular updates and photos throughout our trip. It was reassuring to know everything was being looked after while we were away. We highly recommend her services and will definitely be using her again for our future travels.

Kaylan was an amazing sitter from start to finish! If my dogs could write this rating, I’m sure they’d give her 5 stars. She sent frequent updates, lots of pictures, and wasn’t afraid to ask questions whenever she needed clarification, which gave me peace of mind. She even took my pups on little adventures to explore new parks and treated them to pup cups, with permission of course! It’s obvious they were cared for, and got lots of love and attention while we were away at work. I came home to 2 happy pups and a cared for home. Would definitely recommend Kaylan for a reliable, caring sitter and happily booking her again!

Savannah watched my dog and cat for a week. She did a great job. My animals were happy and well taken care of. My place was left as a I found it. She sent me pics and an update of the day each evening. Very dependable and made me comfortable about leaving them with someone new. I will definitely hire her again in the future.

I recommend having Valerie come and watch your pups. She was very friendly, responsive, responsible and professional from the minute we started communicating. She sent me pics & texts while we were on vacation to keep me updated and reassured the dogs were in good hands. I will definitely contact her again in the future.
Lauren went above and beyond in every way. She kept us updated throughout the day with detailed messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. What really stood out was her initiative. She took out our large trash bins when she noticed the neighbors had, tidied up areas we did not outline as her responsibility, and proactively asked about things like watering our plants, all without being defined in the scope we discussed all to deliver better service. She was incredibly attentive to our animals and our home, and treated our dog and kittens like they were her own. We couldn't recommend her more highly for anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust with their pets and their home.

Alec did a fantastic job caring for our dog and cat while we were away for a week. Our dog has anxiety issues, so finding someone patient and reliable is especially important to us. Alec kept us updated and gave both pets excellent care and attention. We came home to two happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for furry babies. We would happily recommend Alec to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.

Erin is a doll. She was very good with my puppy ... understands that you don't reward a dog misbehaving by showing affection. He wanted to be picked up and she waited until he calmed down. Young, but wise beyond her years. She's smart, reasonable and very polite. GR8 FIND!

Best Rover experience ever for our two pups, Gizmo and Teddy! We received constant updates, photos, and so much love and care that we were actually able to relax while away. Coming home to two happy, calm boys meant everything — we will absolutely book again! 🐾💕

Jealous that our 10-week puppy Sisi had way more fun and seemed delighted to hang with Serena than with us. 10/10 but would not recommend unless you want to be relegated to #2 on your pups favorite people list. This was Sisi’s first ever sitting experience and it couldn’t have gone smoother. Serena helped us for 5 hours while we out for a dinner event. Gave us plenty of helpful tips too!
