“I have an aggressive dog (and then 3 others lol) and Jessalyn was absolutely amazing with them! She was here for two nights and when we got home the please looked better than when we left! She did an outstanding job, she communicated very very well. We will be asking her back!”


“Heather was great with my cat!! Super friendly and communicative with me before and throughout visit, and helped me out by bringing in my deliveries. Thank you so much, would definitely call her up again!!”


“Destiny was great. She responded fast and always checked in with us with any questions and updates about our dogs. She sent us pictures each time she took care of our two dogs. I highly recommend Destiny and we'll be sure to book her again next time if she's available.”


“Angel was super attentive to my cats while I was away, and coordinated with me through complicated travel schedules to make sure they would get the care that they need! I’m super thankful for her 💙”


“Rebecca did a great job caring for our cat when we needed someone. Our cat was happy and well cared for and happily greeted us at the door, no doubt because she was expecting to see her new friend!”


“I had Michelle over for a “meet/greet”, and Sully 🐾, took a liking to her right away. She was knowledgeable of animals, and understood that my little guy had some “separation anxiety”, so she was very kind and took good care of my doggie, on time, and kept me updated if needed. I will definitely hire Michelle again!”


“I have never been away from my pets for more than a few hours since I’ve had them for two years. So going away for 2 to 3 days made me so incredibly anxious and I did so much research to find a good sitter for them. Abigail was absolutely the right choice. She is such a good communicator and adding that with the pictures she sent of the babies, it quelled my anxiety. She saw Zoe was whining and pawing at her kennel (which she does even if we’re there lol) she even offered to stay about another hour or so with her. That made me feel so great that she took that initiative to stay with her. The house was left exactly the way we left it. They were all fed, hydrated, and safe. For future visits, we will definitely be booking with her again. If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced sitter, I would absolutely recommend her.”


“Joseph fed our cats twice a day and stuck to the schedule we requested. He was timely and provided updates throughout our trip. He went above and beyond by removing the litter box trash from the apartment and refilling the food storage container.”


“Tesla was very thorough with her stays, she went above and beyond to take care of our cat Patsy and took lots of great pictures! I highly recommend Tesla to watch over your pets.”


“She was incredibly flexible as my roommate had a funeral and had to change her availability. I appreciate her professionalism, flexibility, and last-minute booking. Literally when she walked in the house, all three dogs and two cats were super affectionate with her. She kept me updated when she came and sent photos. I would highly recommend!”

“Sophia was very good! I left instructions and she wasn’t confused about anything and didn’t have to ask me anything. I can tell she cares for animals and I felt safe with them in her care especially this being my first time using rover. She exceeded my expectations.”


About: I have taken care of dogs and other pets for many years and also worked at the zoo! I love animals and have passion to care for what you love. I will treat each animal like my own, and ensure your love is felt from wherever you are! I am in school currently to get my doctorate in physical therapy, but I have a lot of time to care and help for your furry family members! I have a very open schedule! I will ensure all boundaries are approved by the client and my own. I have a fence and a safe area as well as will send updates to the client as much as possible. I will do my best to be the best sitter and always go above and beyond.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and have always ended up having dogs that are in some cases special needs. I truly love to be around animals because their happiness is so pure. I am a nurse by day and an animal cuddler by night. I am able to give medication’s. I work on basic commands. I have taken care of dogs from puppies to senior. If there is something specific that needs to be taken care of while taking care of your loved one, I will definitely work something out. I am currently taking a vacation between my travel contract for nursing and will be available throughout the day. If there is a specific time or day that works best for you, I will try to make it as easy on you as possible. I typically will have the animal on a leash if there is not a fenced in backyard. Of course, depending on the situation I will allow the owner to guide me on how they prefer to have the animal leashed and will take the precautions necessary to keep them safe.

About: I’ve had dogs in my house since I was born and have trained my dogs when we first got her as a puppy. I also have helped make my oldest dog comfortable after adopting him. I work part time and will be attending college in the fall so I figured this is a perfect thing to do with my short breaks in between classes and off days! I have a dog crate that can be set up and a large yard for your dogs to run around. I have a dog that can also keep your dog entertained.

This was our first time using Suzanna and she exceeded our expectations. She has a passion for animals and it shows but she also does a great job keeping pet parents happy too! Lots of communication, photos and doing little extras that make me comfortable knowing my dog is being well cared for! We will look forward to using her again soon!
