“Don’t know how many times we can say how much we love and trust Scarlett with our babies. We have found our go-to care taker for them when we’re gone. Her and her daughter are amazing!”

“Cathryn was wonderful to work with! She was able to watch my babies for me on short notice when another sitter had to cancel. She took amazing care of my two large dogs and updated me often on how they were doing throughout the weekend. I will definitely hire her again for future trips!”

“Adam was a wonderful sitter for our pets and home. It was very apparent he took excellent care of our pups and they felt safe and comfortable. He was incredibly communicative with updates/pictures which was so appreciated. We will definitely book him in the future!”

“Great experience as always! Mandy takes very good care of by boy, Zippy! He loves when she comes over and loves to snuggle! Thank you for another wonderful stay!”

“Jamie did a wonderful job taking care of our pets! Always quick to respond, and can absolutely handle any needs or requests you might have. We’ll definitely ask her back in the future!”

“Madison and Dave did an awesome job! This was a first for me leaving my 2 babies and having someone house sit. I couldn't have had any better sitters than these two! My home looked just like it did when I left it and I'm very grateful. They were wonderful. They will definitely be the ones I contact the next time I go anywhere or need someone. 😁”

About: I’ve been around pets since I can remember. I also have been babysitting since I was fourteen. I genuinely treat all pets as I would my own and am the go to for pet advice for all of my friends and family. I have two fur babies a Rottweiler named Colt and a Kitten named Ezme! I am currently working part-time so my schedule is very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to tend to the needs of your fur babies ! I care about both the safety of your pets and your home. I follow each individual instruction very carefully to ensure both your home and animals are safe and cared for.

“We love Hailey! She has helped us through last minute emergencies and fun weekend getaways! Without her my kids and I would not be able to leave for more than a couple hours! Your house, farm, and babies are always safe and cared for with Hailey :)”

About: My family and I love animals. I enjoy taking our dog to the dog park and cuddling with our kitten. They are both friendly with other pets. I will be sure to give your fur baby the attention and love needed while you are away. My schedule is quite accommodating for pet owners. I work night shift so I am able to take care of your pet during the day and I work in 4 day shifts. Meaning when I schedule for visits I am off for a specific number of days and can provide full time care. I have a large enough house and fenced in back yard to separate animals and give them the space and roaming freedom they need. I ensure safety and trust.
“Sophie and Ryan are fabulous house sitters! This is the first time we have had a dog sitter watch our pup in our home. We were out of town for four full days and they did a fabulous job! Our fur-baby, Gonzo was well taken care of. They even gave him a bath! Our house was very clean when we came home and our pup seemed content. Sophie sent pictures every day and was a great communicator. We will definitely use them again in the future!”

“Brooklin is absolutely Amazing! At our meet and greet, she asked me if I needed her to do laundry or clean. I have never had anyone from Rover to offer that before! The house was exactly how I left it when I returned and my babies loved her as well! I have found the perfect person to take care of my babies when I am out of town. Brooklin is so sweet and truly loves animals!”

“Charles did an amazing job with Koda. I received daily updates and pictures on how he was doing. He was even even able to help out an extra night when our flight was cancelled. I would definitely book him again in the future.”
About: I’m great at following directions perfectly. I’m also insanely patient. I’m great at animal body language. I’ll make sure to leave everything exactly how I found it I work at a ranch full time so I can stop by for walks at around lunchtime and I’ll be home in time for dinner at 5! Im very diligent with making sure doors are locked. I make sure there’s nothing unsafe in the house. I will always ask if in doubt.
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with a calm, quiet personality and a lot of patience—especially when it comes to pets who need a gentle approach. I understand that not all animals are outgoing or energetic, and I take the time to let them feel comfortable and safe at their own pace. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I make time for walks, feeding, and check-ins, and I make sure pets are comfortable and cared for. I follow routines closely and give pets my full attention while I’m with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions and keep the pet on their normal routine. I make sure they are fed, walked or let out, and checked on regularly. I keep the home clean and make sure the pet feels safe and comfortable.
“Evan was excellent with our Maximus. He communicated well and spent the whole day with our pup a few days after Maximus was neutered and provided great care. Would highly recommend him!”

“Mignon and Coco are not easy clients — they expect VIP treatment only. Cheyenne delivered! My pups approved her immediately (which never happens). Thank you for such amazing treatment!!”

About: I have been raised around pets my whole life and have had 5 puppies we raised as a family. I have experience with potty training, walking, regular training, and just being playful with the dogs in general. I love animals and this is more fun for me than anything. I have free time throughout the week that I would love to dedicate to taking care of any animal that needs attention! I will be in town for some time and needing to make some extra money so I will have plenty of time. We have no pets so I will be able to give all my attention to any animal that needs it. We are staying in a complex that had plenty of grass area to play and also right across the street from a park. When at a clients home I would do as asked and give the pets plenty of love and attention and play time!
“10/10 definitely recommend Ms.Sandra! I was told last minute about a deployment I had coming up and was terrified I wouldn’t find anyone to watch my pup last minute. I explained my situation to Ms. Sandra and she was more than happy to take me on as a client! Her and her daughter had came over to meet Bella two days before I left and Bella was comfortable with them. I knew my dog was being well taken care of and didn’t bother to stress about it while I was away. Ms. Sandra sent me photos every day of Bella just to make sure I was okay! I couldn’t thank her enough! Very sweet, respectful and trustworthy! I will definitely be using her again in the future to watch my pup! Again thank you guys for being amazing!”

“Kyla did an excellent job taking care of our dogs while we were away. She was very quick to respond and asked great questions to prepare herself for our dogs needs. We appreciate you Kyla!”
