“Erin was wonderful. She went above and beyond in every way, kept us informed, and took great care of the house. Our puppy was 6 months at the time of the vacation, and Erin did great with all of them. I am sure they will all be so happy to see her again!”
“Taryn is wonderful. We will definitely hire her again. She’s very pleasant and great with our pets. They warmed to her immediately. She’s a problem solver (we had a minor plumbing issue which she solved on her own but contacted us). She stays in touch just enough so we know all is well but not so much that we can’t enjoy our time away. She went above and beyond. Excellent pet and house sitter!”

“Rachel watched our two dogs while we were away for two weeks in Europe. She was very responsive and took good care of the dogs and our house. Would definitely recommend her to others in need!”
“Rachel did an amazing job with our dogs. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing she was taking such good care of them. We got daily updates, with pictures. She gladly brought in mail and watered plants for us. She is very accommodating and fit us in to her schedule. She was able to pop in for 3 afternoons visits before her time here started when our son wasn’t able to get here during the day to let them out. We will definitely be calling her for future jobs! She’s a gem!!”
“Nathan has taken care of my dog over a weekend on multiple occasions. My house is always as I left it and my dog is very happy. He was also able to help accommodate some last minute directions for taking care of my dog. I was able to enjoy my travels without worrying. I highly recommend Nathan, he is very professional.”

About: I’ve taken loving care of my own cats and dogs for many years, but after my dogs passed away I have been loving other people’s pets instead of getting my own. I’ve been caring for pets of friends, family, coworkers and additional clients through word of mouth. I’m excited to be giving Rover a try! I would be honored to be entrusted with the care of your furry family member! I have experience with young puppies, elderly dogs & those with special needs, such as epilepsy. I work full time (law enforcement), but am available to stay with your pet any day of the week! I generally work Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4:30 PM. I may be able to come by for pet care over lunch if necessary; details would need to be worked out. Working in law enforcement, you can trust that I will treat your home and fur babies with responsibility, care and respect. I’ve had the pleasure of pet sitting for at least 10 clients in their home, allowing them to vacation with peace of mind, knowing their cat, dog, chickens, turtles or whatever other pet they have is being well cared for.
“Excellent communication. Great job taking care of our special need dogs while we were away. This was our first time leaving the dogs at home so we wanted to make sure they were left in good hands. So glad we went with Delaney. We will definitely go with her again. Highly recommended.”
About: As an animal science major I have been around many animals, I love being around dogs and taking care of them. I have my own dog who is 5 years old she is a sensitive dog and has many allergy issues I have experience bathing and giving medication to her. I have plenty of time to play and care for your fur babies from walking to house/dog sitting I am available. I have a online class I attend Monday-Thursdays from 11am-2pm. I am free to work around that, or if you are looking for house sitting options I can watch your dog at your home anytime since my class is online over zoom. I provide care at the client's home, I usually follow the client's schedule for the care needed such as walks, feeding, playtime, medication, and bathing.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I cared for small pets like hamsters and guinea pigs, and later, I helped care for our family dog who lived to be over 15 years old. Toward the end of her life, she was blind and deaf, and I was there for her every step of the way, making sure she was as comfortable and loved as possible. I’ve always been around extended family pets, so animals have been a big part of my life. Recently, I had the joy of pet sitting a puppy for three weeks while the owner was out of the country. It was such a rewarding experience! I’d love the opportunity to care for senior dogs, as I know how important it is for them to have gentle, loving care in a peaceful environment. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a cozy home, perfect for dogs who need a calm, comfortable place to stay. As a homeschool mom who works from home, I have the flexibility and availability to provide consistent, dedicated care for pets. My schedule allows me to be home throughout the day, ensuring that your pet receives plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. Whether it’s daily care or longer stays, I’m able to give pets the love and care they deserve without any interruptions to my routine. I care for pets in my home just like they were my own, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. My home is in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for peaceful walks and playtime. I make sure pets feel at ease with plenty of cozy spaces to rest and relax. Safety is my top priority—I keep a close eye on them at all times and make sure they’re secure indoors and outdoors. I also take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, whether it’s special feeding schedules, medications, or extra attention, so they feel right at home. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are always my focus, and I’m committed to providing them with a safe, trusting environment during their stay.
About: I have experience in clinic and shelter environments, especially with fearful or reactive pets. I also have experience with exotic animals and have taken care of personal pets my entire life! I’m reliable for feeding, walking, medicating, providing enrichment, and more. I’m currently available mornings, evenings, and overnight. With notice, I can invite animal-friendly small/medium pets into my home. For larger pets or those who don’t enjoy animal company, I can do drop-ins or walks at your home! I have my own friendly dogs and cats in my home. The small animals in my home are kept in a separate room. I have a long leash to give your pup some playtime outside, or we can take good walks on a regular leash. I can crate, medicate, or provide enrichment for your pets as needed (with instructions), always with compassionate care.
“Danielle cared for my pets while we were away on a trip. I have 2 cats one of which is diabetic and requires twice daily glucose testing and insulin injections, and a bearded dragon. Before we left she stopped by to practice giving meds and while we were gone she was on time for every injection. She took time to cuddle with my cats and sent lots of good pictures. Even the shy cat took to her! We’re planning on having her watch our pets for several more upcoming trips and would highly recommend her!”
“Sofia did such a great job watching our three dogs in our home! She updated me along the way with how they were doing. She sent lots of pictures and she left the house just like it was when had left. I’m very appreciative of all her help! Will definitely be using her again!”

Rachel P.
“Rachel is amazing! Before we left for vacation she came over to meet our animals and familiarize herself with our routine. It made us feel so much better that our 2 dogs and cat were comfortable with who was watching them before we left. While we were gone Rachel sent us multiple photos and kept us up to date on how our animals were doing! Each of our dogs and our cat have to take medicine each day and Rachel was able to get everyone their medicine everyday. Truly a lifesaver!”

Sofia did awesome! We have used her at least once before, and she has always done a great job! The house was in perfect order, water bowls filled and happy pups! Will definitely be hiring her again!
Laney is one awesome gal who we would absolutely hire again for a future vacation. We felt so at peace leaving our three fur babies in her care. She not only loved on our dogs but truly cared for them, too. There was a bad storm while we were away and one of our dogs gets super scared. She kept us in the loop about him, giving him extra attention, which warmed our hearts. We also have another one who has some stomach challenges and she communicated about that as well. Laney is a great house/dog sitter and will do a FANTASTIC job for you. Book her early cuz once the word gets out about how amazing she is- her calendar will fill up. Thanks, Laney, for being not only an awesome young lady, but a great communicator, a flexible caretaker and an overall beautiful human.
Absolute best dog sitter I have ever had! We are very protective over our dogs and have a very skiddish girl and we worry about her being scared and hiding all weekend but with christina my skiddish dog gave her so much kisses immediately which is unusual for her to go up to strangers. And was out playing all weekend long! I didn’t have to stress AT ALL when I left the dogs with her compared to when I leave them with another person!
Pamela was amazing! So attentive and helpful, we will absolutely be reaching out the next time we are out of town.
We love Kayla! She took great care of our two dogs for an extended period of time. We updated us throughout and we felt very thankful to have her.
Sylveena was great with our 3 dogs, as always! She's the only reason we're comfortable going on vacation!
Super quick response when I was in a tough spot trying to find a dog sitter last minute!! Leslie was very kind and was amazing with Puma!!
Abbey stayed in our home with our two cats and one dog while we were away. She was a great communicator and we appreciated the daily check ins and photos. The house was just as we left it and our animals were well cared for. Highly recommend Abbey!
