“Alison watched our dog for the day and was very communicative and took care of all of his needs! This was her first time sitting for us and it was a bit of a last minute request - but we’ll definitely be booking her in the future!”

“Amazing! Can’t thank you enough- above and beyond my expectations! I booked last minute labor weekend Vacation and Cinthia was able to not just accommodate the stay but also to come and meet and Greet. Justin has a very high Anxiety level without treating any Medication, An escape artist and very Suspicious.. It was great the way he clicked with Cinthia and felt comfortable she kept sending pictures and descriptions of the day. Highly recommended❤️?”

“Emma was absolutely amazing . She was so great with my rescue. He has social anxiety but would have never known with how quickly he bonded with Emma . She went above and beyond in communication and giving extra care to my needy dog. Highly recommend”

“Our first time with Zach and hopefully not our last. He was punctual, reliable and so attentive to our older dog who needs some extra care and patience. Zach sent lots of updates and photos throughout his stay. He followed Kona’s schedule to a T and even came back for an extra walk last minute the next day.”

About: Pets have always been part of my family, so caring for them feels natural to me. As a young teenager I learned how important it is to give them consistent attention, love, and structure. Over the years I have taken on the responsibility and privilege of caring for folks’ pets while they traveled, making sure they felt safe and happy in their routine. I would love to offer that same peace of mind to others. Your pets will be treated like family, receiving steady companionship, playtime, and affection while you are away. I work early mornings as a bread baker, which means my afternoons and evenings are wide open for pet care. I have plenty of time during the hours most people are busy at work, so your pet will get attentive care, regular walks, and the companionship they need throughout the day. I have experience caring for pets in their homes and always follow each owner’s specific routine. However you care for your pets day to day, I will keep that same structure in place so they feel comfortable and secure while you are away.
“Alexandra saved the day with taking care of our sweet 13 week old puppy Tony! She did an awesome job training him, keeping our home clean, and giving us the most precious updates all day. Definitely went the extra mile every step of the way. Could not recommend her enough!”

“Janine is a great dog sitter with a genuine love of animals. She is kind, thoughtful, and has excellent communication skills. Janine provided timely updates with photos after each visit. I would recommend her as a pet sitter to anyone and have her sit for my dog again.”

About: I’ve been taking care of my family dogs since I was a teenager. I am no stranger to any breed. Would love to meet your dog! I work a fully remote engineering job, so I can stop over whenever you need me to. I can also stay over at house and work from your home if you would like. I have been walking dogs and house sitting for a long time and wanted to join rover to meet new people and dogs! I will treat every dog like it is my own. Dogs are my absolute favorite. I will protect them at all costs. I will use leash and be aware of my surroundings and other dogs.
“This was our first time using Kat and she was a wonderful dog sitter! She focused on Irie, took great care to remember our specific instructions, and asked just the right questions, and we felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. We look forward to working with Kat often in the future. :-)”

“Maria made me feel so comfortable leaving my fur babies home during vacation. I could tell quickly they were doing great and probably had a little vacation of their own while I was out of town!”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life and I truly enjoy being around all kinds of animals. Being able to provide safety and security for them is very important to me My schedule fluctuates but I’m more than happy and willing to take same day requests, as needed requests, last minute requests, any type, I’m happy to help! In my home I have 3 cats and a dog (my other 2 cats live with a coworker), and my animals are all super friendly. I will take care of pet owners animals as if they were my own, giving them love and care, and of course treats!
