“Melissa was fantastic, she made sure that our doggo was well taken care of while we were out of town! I really appreciated how responsive she was when we checked in about how things were going and including lots photos of their walks in her reports. We knew Charlie was in great hands with her.”


“Susan was great taking care of my two dogs, one with medication needs, and the other one with many opinions. She checked on them for a couple of days and over time won their trust. I will definitely look for Susan next time I need someone to take care of my pups.”

“Nicole was fantastic dropping in our puppy while we out of town. She took her for walks, took many pictures and gave detailed reports each time. We’ll definitely be using Nicole again!”

“Monica provided great care for my cat like she always does. she provided pictures and videos of him and also gave updates as she did the drop ins. Monica administered his insulin well and with care! My cat loves her!”

“Sharon was the best pet sitter! When our litter box had some issues & our cats had a couple of accidents, she was so understanding & patient. She seriously went above & beyond with caring for our cats. I would recommend Sharon to anyone looking for a pet sitter. 10/10”

“Super sweet to help out super last minute as we got stuck 10 hours away. Our poor babies had pooped inside and she picked it all up so we wouldn’t come back to a total mess. She was also amazing with our GSD who can be shy/timid. We will definitely use her again!!”

“Taylor was amazing and took such good care of our 2 cats while the family took off. Communication was great and she was a life saver by extending their care for an extra day. I will definetly rebook!”

About: I have dog sat and cared for many other dogs and animals before. I will always make sure the animals are well treated for and the house is taken care of. I am very friendly and strive to make sure every experience is friendly. I have two dogs of my own. I am excited to be able to take care of your dogs and make sure they get what they need while you are away from home. Something that sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is that I am very client forward and will work to meet your needs. I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups, I am available for walks and check ins Monday/wednesday/ thursday and house sitting Monday- Sunday! I follow all directions owners leave for me to care for their dog and home.I also help run errands while owners are away, and in warmer months I take care of indoor and outdoor plants
“Erin has been great for our dog Tony! She seems to always make it work to see Tony even when we ask her on short notice. We love her pictures and Tony loves her too!”

“Ella was SO great!! Helped me out with our dog rather last minute, and was very accommodating when we needed to add extra drop ins. She communicated well and was able to do a few quick things for us at the house too. My dog is not the biggest fan of people she doesn’t know so it was a relief to find someone that was so accommodating. Highly recommend! .”

“This was the second time that Rachel took care of my boy while I was away, and this time it was a longer trip! She was wonderful, in playing with him, petting him, & responding promptly to my messages about him. She also threw out a dirty cat water filter for me & checked the auto feeder for me when I had some concerns about it. The other great thing was she sent through some great photos of my little boy.”

“Caitlin is the absolute best! I continue to rebook her because she really goes above and She's very responsible and punctual! Most importantly my pup loves her!”

“Lindsay is great with my dogs. She is flexible and always super helpful if my plans change, even going above and beyond when we had an out of town emergency. I don't have to worry when I know she is coming!”

“Vanessa was awesome! We only booked a drop in, but she helped us out a lot when we needed our girls to be taken potty while we were out of town for the day. Thank you again! We’ll definitely rebook in the future.”


“Kara has cared for our dog and cat multiple times over the past year. She's responsive, reliable, we never have to worry about whether she'll show up when we're away. She's great with the pets and even convinces Lily the cat to pose for an occasional photo!”

“Jasmine has been a lifesaver for the 2 kitties! They were available on short notice and have gone above and beyond to help with the cats health needs. Jasmine was communicative and sent lots of photos! I would highly recommend Jasmine!!”

Cara was wonderful to our kitties while we were out of town! She took exceptional care of them and gave us thorough updates. She was very accommodating to one of our cats being a bit finicky, too. We’re so thankful to have worked with her and spill definitely hire her again.

As a pet owner I was looking for a reliable cat sitter to visit my home while I was away. Lori followed all my instructions and even stayed in my home until her 30-minute visit time was over for each drop in visit! I feel comfortable using Rover to find my pet sitter when needed and allowing their pet sitters to come into my home. Lori came and did a meet and greet, asked me questions the same week I was looking for a cat sitter. She was very responsive and observed my home. She offers to bring in any packages left on the porch and my mail if needed while she cared for my cat. Lori sent me pictures of my cat the day she visited. I would use Lori again.

Lizzy was amazing for our dog and cat! She went above and beyond to care for both of them, wrote detailed updates on each visit, and provided great company to them both. We've never felt better heading out of town knowing that they were so cared for. Definitely recommend Lizzy, she's awesome!

Whitney is an absolute lifesaver! She was incredibly flexible with my last-minute request and took such great care of Loko while I was away. She sent constant photo updates, communicated perfectly, and I came home to a very happy, well-cared-for pup. Highly recommend!

Noelle is fantastic! She's very nice and took great care of my cats while we were gone. She sent me wonderful pics of them playing so I had total peace of mind while she was looking after them. I'll be booking her to drop in on my pets for as long as she's available to do it!
