“Taryn was wonderful! She was kind, respectful, and made me feel like taking care of my kitty wasn’t just a job. She made him feel really at home and he can be pretty shy. I loved seeing the daily pictures. She was very flexible with my schedule as well which I so appreciate!! Would definitely recommend to anyone and would book again for sure. This was my first time using Rover and it was a lovely experience with her.”
“Super sweet to help out super last minute as we got stuck 10 hours away. Our poor babies had pooped inside and she picked it all up so we wouldn’t come back to a total mess. She was also amazing with our GSD who can be shy/timid. We will definitely use her again!!”
“Kate was amazing. Our kitties were well taken care of while we were away on vacation. She left a nice thank you note for when we got back and was very friendly and professional to work with. Would book again.”
“Meggie goes above and beyond. She’s been checking in on my buddy for over a month now and she always does a great job. She’s prompt and never misses a day! She’s incredibly sweet to my boy and let’s him stay outside as long as he can. I always get pictures and a nice little update, and she checks in if something seems out of the ordinary. Overall I highly recommend Meggie ♥️🐶”
“Jessica was great. Our cat gets lonely while we are away. Jessica plays with our active 2 year old and gives him lots of love. She does what you ask her to do. Definitely will use her again. Getting the pictures helps you know that everything is ok.”
“Carmen and Katie were amazing! They were always on time and sent us lots of (happy) pictures of our furbaby. Ping-Pong is elderly and needs meds twice a day. All meds were dispensed as directed and cuddles were given liberally. We will use them again and I highly recommend them! I guarantee you and your furbabies will not be disappointed!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Mya made the experience amazing! I will definitely be using her again. My dog is very shy and not good with strangers but Mya took her time to be patient and calming. My dog started warming up to her very fast and I belive dogs have a good judge of character ;)”
“Delaney was great with my dog, she made sure to meet him before letting him out for the days I needed help, which I really appreciated. She was great with communication and with my dog. I am thankful and definitely recommend!”
“Cheyenne was everything I hoped for and more! She took a plethora of pictures, gave tons of updates, and I never worried that my dogs and cat weren’t getting genuinely great care. I’ll be booking Cheyenne again!”
“We have had a great experience with Georgia. She has tackled this rambunctious duo and even worked with my reactive pup individually. Thank you again. Will definitely book again (if she will have us! 😅)”
“Connie has been simply amazing, starting with a visit to meet the crew and understand their routines, preferences and quirks before my trip. Her daily visits have been informative and I absolutely love seeing pictures of my fur children while I’m away. I highly recommend her services!”
About: I have had animals all my life. I raised a 3 year old Cocker, care for a senior large dog, and have cats. Summertime Sitting--Nothing I would rather do with my time than hang out with pets! I have summer off and would love to fill it with caring for your pets! I am available most weeks during the summer & during the weekends other seasons. I have a fenced in backyard yard, a large/medium kennel, and a "private" (separated from other pets) room for your pet to enjoy during their stay. I do own cats and dogs, they are all friendly and used to other dogs! I will also respect your space and follow instructions for visits, dog or cat.
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.
“Lulu was excellent with both of my dogs who have very different personalities. She was thorough and sent me pictures/text updates when she was there. I fully trust her to watch any of my animals in the future. 5/5”
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.
“Shannon was very professional and did all the visits in a timely manner. I am so grateful she was able to help me out while I was out of town for work. She is a life saver!! Highly recommend!!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 8. I started walking the neighbors dogs then that same year I got my own cats. My cats are brother and sister. 4 years later I got my dog, I'm the main caretaker for him. I walk, bathe, feed, play with him, and train him. I'm currently working part time and I'm a full time college student. I have classes until noon, and work Tuesday, Thursday from 4-8 and Saturday and Sunday 9-5. At your house I will not take my eyes off of your pets, my priority is to make sure they're happy and safe. I will love your animals like they're my own.
About: Hi there! I’m a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for all kinds of pups - from sweet senior dogs who need medication and a gentle touch, to high-energy, reactive breeds like German Shepherds who thrive with focused attention and structure on walks. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I’m committed to making each walk safe, enriching, and tailored to them. Let’s make your pup’s tail wag! I love getting outside every day, and having a furry companion join my wife and I would make it so much more fun! We have very open availability since I am currently self employed. I will be very respectful of your home and the needs of your dog(s). I firmly believe each dog has its own needs and should be cared for based on their specific needs and not “what works for most dogs”.

“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!”
