“Audrey did a wonderful job with our two rambunctious German Shepherds. She is a good listener, attentive, and punctual. We got lots of great feedback while we were away, and when she needed additional information, was quick to contact us. She was housesitting/petsitting for us - when we returned, house was immaculate. She approaches this work as a real professional. Happy we found her, and fortunate to have her back in a few short days!”

“Jennifer arrived promptly & my pup Daisy immediately fell in love with her. I was gone for about 6 hours, received a cute photo, & came home to a happy dog. I will definitely book Jennifer again.”

“Rachel was amazing. She did an amazing job with our pups and kept us updated and communicated about how everything was going. Would definitely recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again”


“Talyn was amazing! Took great care of our 1yo puppy, walked him daily, and sent updates as to how he was doing. She left the house perfectly clean! I would 100% book with her again. She is trustworthy, responsible, a quick communicator, and overall a delight!”

“I really appreciate all the effort and care put into my animals! Like most pet owners, I fret when I'm away. Monique was communicative and friendly, always responding quickly and happy to send a pic.”

“Bethany was great about sending pictures. She has always been on time . She is friendly and we are very happy. Would have tipped more but there is a 30% limit.”

“Jocelyn was an incredible house sitter when she stayed and watched our cat, Freyja during our vacation! Our usual house sitter had to cancel on us around 2/3ish weeks before our trip and so we reached out to Jocelyn to see if she was available. She was so sweet and set up our meet and greet promptly! During the stay, Jocelyn was an excellent communicator and shared regular updates and photos with us, which made us feel so comfortable with her watching our girl, Freyja. Additionally, Jocelyn left the apartment nice and tidy, which was so great to come home to. Overall, we were so happy with Jocelyn watching our cat child!”

“James recently watched my fiancé and i’s three dogs while we were out of town for a few days. He was phenomenal, always on time with daily updates. I told him to play with the dogs in the back yard once a day and he did it 3+ times. Kept me in the loop every day and folded all the sheets and took out the garbage. Would give more than 5 stars if it was an option”

“Carla was great! She was patient with our dog who can be leery of strangers and we came home to a perfectly clean home after a long travel day! Will definitely book with her again.”

“Amanda took great care of Otis and was open with communication/frequent pictures while we were away for the night! She met needs specific to our pup and administered medications as directed. Great, trustworthy sitter!”

“Nazeerah was AMAZING. We have a timid, people-selective wolfhound. He sounds intimidating when he gets scared. She was so respectful of his boundaries and allowed him the time to approach her on his terms. By the end of the weekend, she was petting him and he was cuddling with her. Our other dog loved her from start. This speaks volumes about her character, dogs know good people. The most important thing she did though was put my mind at ease so I could be fully present on our family get together and not be concerned about what was happening at home. She provided updates and pictures of all my animals (goats, chickens, dogs and cats) several times a day. Our only heat source is a woodstove and even though the stove can be temperamental, she worked the problem and kept it going. We have had many house sitters over the years but never one as conscientious and caring as Nazeerah. I think the dogs were disappointed when we showed back up instead of her. She is truly an animal lover and more importantly, knows how to put their owners at ease by providing love to their fur babies. We recommend her to everyone and will definitely have her come back again.”

“Melissa was by far the best sitter we have used! She was prompt with visits and getting them outside. They grew to love her visits. She kept in constant contact with us. Almost want to go on another trip in order to have her again!!”

“It can be hard to find a sitter that enjoys big dogs. Our big, goofy dogs love Clara! We appreciate that she let us know how they were doing and help them stay happy and on their routine (as it helps the smaller of our two dogs keep her anxiety down while we’re away). We will definitely call on her again.”

“Julie was an absolute gem! Our girl calmed right down and enjoyed her new friend. Julie sent us photos showing Rosie nice and relaxed at hom, as well as playing ball. She even washed the sheets and emptied the dishwasher! We will definitely ask Julie to stay again.”


“Alex was so good with our two goldens and kitty while we were out of town! She even got up every day to walk them in the early morning since it was a 100 degree weekend. Very good communication and kept us updated throughout the weekend. Above & beyond!”

“Shenna was wonderful with our dogs and brought real peace of mind while we were away. She asked thoughtful questions, showed genuine affection for the animals, and carried a calm “I got this” confidence from start to finish. We came home to happy pets and a clean, well-cared-for home. Her reliability and care truly stood out, and we’d definitely book with her again.”


About: There has never not been a dog in my house. I've grown up around them and feel very comfortable with them! Within the last few years I have logged 70+ volunteer hours at SCRAPS training and exercising dogs. I achieved the highest level of training and thoroughly enjoy my time working with them. I have handled dogs with all kinds of behavioral issues from having a high prey drive to disliking people. Additionally I've worked with my own dog and she earned her CGC, participated in numerous rally classes, and began agility. When she became a senior dog I gave her a comfortable life until the end. I am passionate about making their lives better for as long as we have them. I also have experience taking care of rabbits, goats, and horses. I'm a full-time student on summer break so I have full availability currently. Evenings will have less availability as I will be doing some summer conditioning for my sport but can be flexible with the client's needs. In my own home we keep our dogs separate with baby gates and the use of leashes. Keeping them safe is a priority for us so we do all we can to help make them comfortable while maintaining safety. Depending on what the client is comfortable with I will use whatever measures they want to keep their family safe.

“Suzy was wonderful! My puppies are a bit of a handful, but she took good care of them and wanted to come back. She stayed in excellent contact as well, which is always appreciate. She's delightful and I will be booking her again!”

Allison (Rae) took incredible care of both my dog and my sister’s pup over the Fourth of July weekend! She walked and played with them a lot and made them both comfortable despite their separation anxieties. She left the house spotless and even ran a load of dishes! I would definitely have her house and dogsit for me again!

Melissa was great! She stayed at our house for a week, taking care of our two quirky medium-sized dogs, plus chickens and fish too. It was clear she cared about our pets and paid attention to details. She sent updates regularly and went above and beyond to keep everyone safe when she spotted a porcupine nearby. We felt really comfortable with her and would absolutely use her again. Thank you, Melissa.

Caitlyn is absolutely amazing!! She has been working for months with my fear based reactive dog on building a relationship together through weekly trainings. Caitlyn is patient, trained in dog behavior and training tactics, very reliable, and willing to do anything to build trust with dogs. Now a days my dog Roxy and Caitlyn go on walks by themselves (huge victory for Roxy with anyone that is not her parents), my husband and I was able to take a vacation a full airplane ride away (first time we both got to go on a vacation together in three years since getting Roxy), and Roxy has gotten so much better with strangers in general due to her relationship with Caitlyn. I have recommended Caitlyn to my family and friends (she took care of my moms cats as well while taking care of Roxy since we all went on the same vacation) because she is trustworthy, reliable, great communicator, great trainer, kind human, and a hard worker. I can’t say enough about how awesome Caitlyn is!!

Lisa was wonderful with our pets and home while we were away! This was the first time we left our one year old mastiff and we wanted to make sure she didn’t pester our older dog too much. She did a great job of giving them a fun week while making sure both dogs got along. She left our house super clean and was very easy to work with. If you’re looking for someone you can trust, I highly recommend booking with her!

Nazzy has been a blessing for my kitty family. She always sends pictures and information about how my kitties are doing while I'm gone. She asks appropriate questions about their care and is kind and loving. I have always felt my kitties to be safe in her care. She helped me out with a last minute booking this Spring. I will continue to ask her to stay with my kitties. Thank you Nazzy.
Molly was prompt in responding to our last minute need, easy to work with, and communicated well w/each visit to check on our critters while we were away. She was open to checking in on our conventional pet (a cat) but also our non-conventional pets (baby chicks). Grateful for her services.

Audrey is a fantastic dog sitter! Communication was excellent throughout, with regular updates and quick responses. She was incredibly friendly, caring, and clearly great with Penny. I also really appreciated coming home to a tidy, well-kept house. Highly recommend and would happily book again!

This was the first time we used Rover for housesitting and Tessa was so wonderful with our two pups while we were away for the week. Our puppy can be a bit of a handful and Tessa was proactive, communicative and went the extra mile to try different things to help deter his bad behaviors while we were gone. She left our house clean and even refilled our stash of frozen Toppls so that we were good to go with puppy enrichment treats when we got home. Leaving our fur babies is always stressful but Tessa definitely made it a lot easier!

You can’t do any better. End statement, she’s the best. I had an emergency trip I could cancel or reschedule. Lauren stepped in super last minute, sent tons of pictures of super happy puppies/kitties. She even saved my kitties that I spaced and I accidentally shut the door to the bedroom locking them inside 🙄. Hero, right here, hire her!
