“She’s the best!! If my dog could talk he would want Krista every day. Too bad my pocket book can’t afford her daily. Only when we go on a holiday. Keep up loving the animals. They sure love you. I can’t say too much good about her. My dog took right to her. 👍🏼😊”
About: Hi! I’m Arren, and I’ve been caring for pets and farm animals since middle school. From dogs and cats to fish or goats, I’ve got experience with all kinds of animals. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just giving them some love, I’ll make sure your pets are happy and well-cared for while you’re away. I also send regular updates so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands! As an aunt, I spend several days a week babysitting my young niece, but on the days I’m not with her, I’m available for pet sitting! I’m also open to accommodating clients with child-friendly pets on days when I’m with her, as my niece is comfortable and well-behaved around animals (she has a dog, ducks, rabbits, goats, and fish). If you have any special requests, don’t hesitate to reach out, and I’ll do my best to work with your schedule! I treat your home like my own. I make sure your pets have a comfortable and safe environment, sticking to their usual routines for feeding, playtime, and walks. I’m also happy to provide extra attention and enrichment to keep them engaged. If your pets have any special needs (medications, dietary restrictions, etc.), I make sure to follow your instructions carefully.

“Jazmin is a very awesome dog sitter. She took care of my dogs and my dogs love her. Just shows she treats my dogs very well. She’s very good at communicating and always makes sure to update you about your pups wellbeing. I finally found a dog sitter that I can trust. Thank you again Jazmin.”

“Valarie A. did an Excellent job taking care of our pets while we were on vacation. I was especially happy that she provided, each day, all the progress, concerns, and how the pets were doing each day. I will certainly use Valarie again in the future, and would recommend her to anyone needing a 'pet sitter'. Thanks Valarie!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life & have had cats for 7 years. I have also had pets such as fish & a rat when I was younger. From 3 weeks old to senior dogs that need special care or medicine. I have been pet sitting for the past 20 years & would love to continue to do so for the rest of my life. I truly enjoy helping others & I love animals so why not do both at the same time? :) I’m currently only working part time so I have a good amount of time on my hands & would love to fill it up with doing something I love. I make sure to clean my cats/ dog’s bowls every day & fill them with fresh food & water. My boyfriend & I make sure to take our dog out at least 4 times a day. I always make sure that the guest pet is comfortable so they don’t feel any less happy than when they’re with their owners. I try to play & walk them as much as they require so they can get a good nights sleep. Special requests like giving treats or medicine are always something I ask about to make sure all of the pets in my care are as comfortable as possible.
“Natalie is frankly an amazing sitter who was great with my two cats and was able and willing to work with me for the whole month I was gone. I came home to two happy and comfortable cats. Will absolutely be on my short list for sitters next time I have to leave my kitties behind for a while.”
“Michelle is nothing less than amazing. You can tell she truly cares about her customers’ pets. She goes above and beyond…..my go to sitter for sure.”
“Sheri did a great job ensuring our kitties were content while we were gone. Great sitter ?”
About: I've taken care of pets for friends and family for years on and off the rover app. I took a break from rover a couple years ago to focus on my family and I am ready to jump back in.

About: My family has had all different kinds of dogs. When I was a kid we had a litter of 8 dachshunds and ever since I've loved being around animals. Now I've got two standard poodles I take care of: bathing, grooming, and even cooking special food for them. I love to take the dogs up into the dishman hills for a good adventure, or to one of the dog parks to socialize. Right now I'm available all week and super flexible. Primarily I'm helping to take care of the family home right now while my mother is disabled and I have lots of time and attention available for your loved ones. We have a fenced yard for your pets to play in an explore. With an attached separately gated dog run with access to the doggy doors for the house. If there were any kind of issues to arise I would give your pets and mine their own space and then lovingly take the time to calm everyone down. We can even section off the house and let the dogs out separately into the yard if need be.
About: I am 22 years old and I have never gone a year without owning a dog! I moved out recently but I lived with 3 dogs and now care for 2 cats. I have experience with low energy dogs and high energy dogs, I am also friendly to all breeds! I am currently in the process of getting a new job, but I would love to be able to do this on the side or part time!

Arren S.
“Arren watched my little 16 pound dog Bruce. He is such a scared little thing sometimes that I was worried for him, especially with the last pet sitter we had, but she took great care of him and sent me plenty of pictures. I could not feel any more comfortable with a pet sitter than I was with her. My dog was happy and in great spirits when I came back and he had been well fed. She even went ahead and cleaned up a bit and left my place better than I left it”
