“Wow! Thanks Allison for a great stay! When our original rover sitter cancelled at the last minute, Allison stepped in and stepped up, providing excellent care of Fiona and our home. We find Allison, reliable, trustworthy, and professional - she bonded with Fiona immediately - it is obvious she loves dogs. Allison sent pictures and updates daily. Highly recommend - will definitely use Allison again!”
“We are so happy with the services Brandon provided while we were on vacation. We came home to very happy dogs and the house exactly how we left it. Brandon sent pictures, asked questions and made sure our animals were well loved while we were away. I couldn’t be more pleased and will definitely plan to use him for future trips. I highly recommend Brandon for house and dog sitting.”

“Allison is amazing! She is so kind and wonderful with my dog pippin. She goes above and beyond while caring for her! Thank you for everything Allison!”

“Victoria was a rock star. Our dog was so happy with the time she spent with Victoria. It is such a relief when you go out of town knowing you dog is in good hands.”
“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”

“Valerie was the best pet sitter we have had. She took great care of our 3 dogs and cat. Usually when we get back they are so relieved for us to be home but I think they missed Valerie which makes me happy. I would highly recommend her. Our dogs can be at times a little much and a little overwhelming, but she took care of them great.”
“Rae was WONDERFUL. Awesome communication, awesome attention to our dogs. She was fantastic and will be the first call we make whenever we need a sitter.”
“Buni took great care of our pets while we were away for vacation! She met with us ahead of time to meet the 2 cats and 2 dogs, and go over specifics about routines and medication. We received updates and pictures while she was here! Our pets were happy and healthy upon our return, and we were so glad to be able to keep them comfortable at home versus having to board them.”
“My girls are very anxious and nervous around new people. With Katie, they were relaxed and excited to see her when she was taking care of them. I’ll definitely be asking for Katie’s help in the future for both puppy sitting and if I need help with someone just stopping in during the day.”
About: I've had dogs and cats most of my life. In 2010 I took classes for veterinary assistant and worked as a vet receptionist at that time. I raised my last dog, Mitzi, from a puppy. She had health issues up through her senior years. We shared 15-1/2 years, and in May 2024 she crossed the rainbow bridge. In July 2025 I adopted Ziva from SICSA. She's a Pom-mix, 7 years old. Ziva is a low key gal who asks for belly rubs and pets. In the short time I've had her, she's learned "give me your paw, sit, and round in a circle." She doesn't know how to play, but we're making progress with Lamb Chop and her bone. What can I do for you and your pets? I can provide LOTS of love for your pets by feeding, playing, walking, and giving them scritches, hugs, and kisses. Contact me for a Meet and Greet today! 🐶 🐱 I'm currently working part-time, and I have plenty of time to spend with your dogs and cats! My schedule is flexible to meet your needs. I will abide by my clients' instructions when I'm at their home and can adapt to your pet's routine in the comfort of their home.
“Maya was wonderful! Took great care of our pups and went the extra mile to leave the house clean when we got home. We wish she was close to us all year!!!”
“Sienna is great! She is awesome at communicating and very loving to our Buddy. She spent lots of time with him and left the house exactly as we left it. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Caroline pet/house sat for us for a week. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats. This was our first time using Rover and Caroline. Caroline was a perfect match for our pets' needs! We couldn't have been happier with our experience. We will definitely be looking for Caroline's pet services the next time we need a sitter.”
About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, and bunnies my whole life! I used to train our labs. Recently I have had fish experience, fresh water tropical fish and used to own a flock of chickens. I can help you with all your pet care needs! I work full time, but am able to help out before and after work weekdays and all day weekends and federal holidays. I would love to help you family! I am off the week of Thanksgiving and between Christmas and new years. I am able to give excellent care to your pets! I run regularly and can take on walks as well as do the care your pets need!
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Riley stayed in our home for 3 nights and took such wonderful care of our dogs. When we returned, our home was spotless and our pups were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Her communication was excellent throughout our trip—she sent us plenty of photos each day, which gave us such peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy and in great hands. We’ll absolutely reach out to her again the next time we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”

Ella was excellent watching my 3 dogs. She stayed at my house while I was away. She spoiled my babies and they loved her. Highly recommend. She sent photos frequently and stayed in contact with me. When I arrived home there were fresh cut flowers and fresh eggs (She also watched chickens and ducks) i am thankful I found Ella. Thank you for doing a wonderful job.
