Camryn was awesome with Buddy, provided consistent updates, took care of the house, and administered his medicine on time. She even stayed extra late to make sure he wasn’t home alone. We’re very grateful to have found Camryn and will be re-booking soon!

Hadija is an outstanding dog and house sitter! We are so grateful for her thoughtful and kind care she gave to our dog, Edna. We had to book a dog sitter on short notice over a holiday weekend and we couldn’t have been luckier that Hadija was able to watch Edna last minute! She sent us regular video updates and made sure Edna kept to her usual routine. It was a relief to be able to travel and know that our dog was so well cared for. We highly recommend Hadija for dog/house sitting. She was also a very courteous house guest.

We had a wonderful experience with Rosanna! She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, sending regular updates and photos. One thing especially appreciated was how she handled giving my dog his medications. She followed instructions perfectly and is probably better at giving them to him than I am, haha. Overall; she is reliable, attentive and clearly cares deeply for the animals she looks after. We came home to happy, well cared for pets! Would absolutely trust her again in the future and highly recommend.

About: Caring for animals has always been something that comes naturally to me. I’ve spent years around dogs and other pets, helping friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. I’m comfortable working with dogs and any animal of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies that need lots of exercise to older dogs that prefer slower walks and extra care. I always focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Currently work part time at nights and weekends predominantly so I have morning/daytime availablility during the week while you are at work! Can also do overnights any day of the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I always follow each pet’s routine, care instructions, and any special needs provided by the owner to make sure they feel secure and well cared for. I maintain a calm, clean, and safe environment where pets can relax and feel at home. Whether it’s during a walk, a drop in visit, or extended care, I always keep a close eye on pets and make sure they are safe, comfortable, and happy at all times. I’m attentive to behavior, body language, and any changes in mood or energy so I can respond quickly if something seems off. I also make sure pets have fresh water, proper feeding, plenty of exercise or playtime, and lots of affection. Communication is very important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and messages to keep owners informed and reassured while they’re away. My goal is to create a safe, trustworthy experience where both pets and their owners feel completely at ease.

About: With years of experience caring for multiple cats and dogs at home, I truly understand their needs and quirks. I also watch dogs of all sizes and ages, ensuring they feel loved and secure in their own environment. I am dedicated to providing the best care for your pets and believe having them stay in a location they are familiar with is the ideal stay. I work from home when booked, allowing me to adjust my schedule to be fully available on booked days. I bring my laptop setup with me and I'm all set. Have an extremely flexible schedule. I take great joy in walking dogs and giving them the attention they deserve, ensuring they feel loved and cared for during their time with me. I watch dogs in your own home to ensure they feel comfortable with an environment they are used to and to avoid any additional stress.

Amazing!!! Absolutely amazing! Thomas took very good care of our Golden Retriever (Broddie) and Shih Tzu (Destiny). This was our first time using Rover for dog sitting, nervous and was very impressed with Thomas willingness to bond with our furry ones and ensure that he had everything needed to take care of both dogs. Provides daily overviews of the activities, and things done throughout the day (photos included). Not only did he take care of our dogs but was willing to take care of our Ferret and Goldfish and still did an amazing job! Very clean and organized with day planning and capable of working with a provided schedule. Will totally recommend Thomas to anyone!

“Uncle Marc” is Hazel and Penny’s new favorite friend! Marc stayed with our girls while we spent the week out of the country. I was worried about leaving them for so long but Marc took great care of them and frequently updated me, sent pictures, and put my mind at ease. They’re already planning for his next visit 😉. Thanks Marc, we appreciate you!

About: I’ve cared for dogs through every stage of life, from puppyhood to their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with both energetic young dogs and older pets needing extra patience and care. I understand how important consistency, attention, and compassion are when caring for animals. What sets me apart is my strong time management, reliability, and genuine love for pets. I treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work freelance jobs, which gives me a flexible schedule and availability that many others may not have. I’m able to plan my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins, making it easier to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m organized, reliable, and enjoy spending time with animals, so making sure they feel comfortable, active, and cared for is something I genuinely prioritize. I care for pets by keeping them on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. In my client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, get plenty of walks, playtime, attention, and any specific care instructions they need. I also keep the home clean and provide updates so owners know their pets are doing well. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, young, or senior dogs.

Had an amazing experience with Patty! I have a nervous dog who takes a while to warm up to people so I was a bit selective when it came to who I chose to watch him and choosing Patty for the job was a great decision. She was friendly, punctual, followed his care instructions, and sent pictures with daily updates. I would absolutely book with her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone!
