Lucinda is super reliable and dependable, and our dog loves her. It’s such a blessing to be able to take a vacation and know that both our home and our sweet little furry baby are in good hands. Everything was neat and tidy when we got home, and our dog was in great spirits. Thank you! 🏡🐕💕

Jamie was everything you hope for in a pet sitter. The dogs were relaxed and in great spirits when we got home and the house was spotless. Jamie sent pictures and communicated regularly letting us know how everything was going. We have to French bulldogs that both have daily meds and he kept everything organized and on schedule.

Simply, Adeline was a perfect pet sitter in pur home. Our little dog is 16 years old and doesn't hear. He also was highly traumatized before we adopted him, so new people make him very agitated. deline was amazing with him. She was kind enough to agree to a pre vacation meetup before our holiday. She listened to our concerns and clearly treated him well. By the time we came home a week later, she was his bestie. Adeline sent us photos periodically with updates and seemed to really care about them, offering to sit for us again in the future. We're so grateful to Adeline for her patience and care; she made it possible for me to relax on vacation knowing they were in good hands. Thank you Adeline!

Chanel was a great cat and house sitter. She sent me pictures of my cat each day and kept me updated on how she was doing. She left my condo the same way she found it. She was great with communication before, during and after the pet sit. I would recommend Chanel for your pet sitting/house sitting needs.

Our two dogs were instantly at ease with Kelly the moment they met her. She watched our two large dogs (60lb and 70 lb) for eleven days while we were traveling. She took each of them on a walk every morning, kept them company during the day, and spent the night at our house for their peace of mind (and ours). She coped admirably with an unexpected outbreak of ants in the kitchen that started the morning before we left, and with our inquisitive Shepherd chewing up her sunglasses. In addition, she fed our pet frogs twice weekly and watered our house plants. She sent us daily updates and pictures of the dogs. When we returned home, our dogs were happy to see us but calm and didn't appear stressed in the least. We look forward to hiring Kelly again to care for our dogs.

Michael is so awesome!!!! My fiance and I booked a trip for a concert, and didn't realize our hotel did not allow pets unattended and had decibel alarms. He seriously saved the day. I booked VERY last minute (8 hrs prior to sitting, and brand new to rover). Michael responded extremely quick with very clear communication. Brownie points for the bathory shirt for sure. My pup is anxious and hasn't had to stay with a stranger like this and he seemed to do great w Michael. We got plenty of updates, and again super clear communication about our pup! He really did so amazing and we could tell our lil guy was happy after being in his care :) THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and currently share my home with five cats and three dogs, including a senior dachshund and a four month old puppy we’re training ourselves. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and it's something I truly love. Friends and family often trust me to look after their pets, from cats and dogs to bunnies and even bearded dragons. I'm kind, attentive, reliable, and always on time, I treat every animal with the same care and affection I give my own. I'm a recent high school graduate, and I'll be heading off to college in a few months. Right now, I'm enjoying my summer break and have a very flexible schedule—giving me plenty of time and energy to care for your furry friend. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you're away, I’m committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. With no other major commitments this summer, your pet will have my full attention and care. I approach every home I care in with a strong sense of safety, consistency, and respect for privacy. While I may be pet sitting in your home, I understand that your space is personal, and I treat it with the utmost care and discretion. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I make sure to keep the environment clean, organized, and calm. I provide attentive, personalized care and always follow any special instructions whether that involves administering medication, sticking to a specific diet, or following a preferred exercise routine. My ultimate goal is to create a stress-free, positive experience for both you and your pet.

Jeanne was absolutely wonderful! She stayed with our dog and cat for two nights and took such great care of everything. She checked in daily, sent thoughtful updates and photos, and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. On top of that, she went above and beyond by leaving us homemade pickles and marinara sauce. Such a kind and unexpected touch! Our home, dog and cat were clearly cared for with so much love. We would 100% book Jeanne again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.

We were on the East Coast and off the grid for much of the week, with home renovations going on at the same time—and one of our dogs is a husky who’d happily take off into the foothills if given the chance. Vince handled everything like a total pro. He’s exactly who you want if leaving your pups stresses you out like it does me. Whatever he’s charging, it’s worth it for the peace of mind.

This was the fourth or fifth time Sadie took care of my pets and my home. My pets absolutely love spending time with Sadie, and I can sense their disappointment when I arrive instead - I suspect that only pet owners understand the joy of being a disappointment when they return. Sadie is also an excellent communicator, and I trust her completely.

Our first time with Celeste and we were very happy with her care of our fur kids. She took care of our two old pups - one who loves everyone and one who is less than thrilled with humans in general. The grumpy guy even liked her. And our three-legged cat was happy too. We got photos and videos daily, and everyone seemed happy and content. We will definitely have Celeste over again.

Jude was the best sitter I can get my hands on!! It was very last minute and I was afraid I would get a a sitter that wasn’t attentive, but that’s not the case at all. We did a meet and greet and we walked through all of my kittens needs. Jude made sure to follow through all of those needs and more! Sent follow ups and updates on time. There was even a last minute schedule change where I needed Jude to pet sit more and they were very understanding! Very will use Jude another when I go on my trips. Recommend to anyone looking for a sitter that cares and loves animals!!

Lucinda is just amazing.!! Thoughtful, gentle, and conscientious of my specific needs for MY high maintenance needs for my dog that I asked of her. Her communication throughout the time she stayed was impeccable. She took lots of pictures. I almost didn’t make it home her last day bcuz of flight issues and she was immediately willing to watch another day on the spot. What more could one ask for. She left my home exactly as I would. She’s also just a caring and lovely person too!!

My wife and I were visiting the Oregon coast and needed a sitter just for the day. I had searched and reached out to a lot of people to try and accommodate our needs. Luckily Alyssa and Max were in the area sitting another pup literally just up the road. We had set up a meet and greet and my dogs knew right away they were a great fit. We were so glad to have found them. At the end of the dog sit they even provided a little report card telling us how everything went, super cute. I would hire them again in a heart beat.
