“This is my first time using Rover. I was very pleased with the care Jennie provided for my kitty. She was punctual, prepared great visit notes and pictures. She was very responsive to messages as well. I would not hesitate to hire her again. Thank you Jennie!”


“Season is excellent! I worry a lot when I leave my cats, but I was able to enjoy my vacation this time! Season sent updates with each visit and let me know how they were doing. She is very professional and took great care of my cats!!”

“Mackenzie was amazing! We are new to the area and I was a little concerned having someone I never met come over while we were gone. She was so professional and did great with our very shy cat. Usually he won't even come out for people but we could see him waiting for her on the camera, it was so sweet. We will definitely book with her again.”

“Angie was great with my cats. They were happy, healthy buddies when I returned from my trip. She was very professional and took care of everything we asked. I would definitely use her pet sitting services again.”

“Erin is a wonderful cat sitter! I could tell from our introduction visit that Erin knew all about cats, and our cat, Chloe, liked her right away. For our trip, Erin listened carefully to my instructions and followed them exactly. Knowing that Erin was visiting Chloe and looking after her, I had a much more enjoyable trip because I wasn't worrying about our cat while we were away. I will definitely book with Erin for our next trip, and I highly recommend Erin for anyone who needs a cat sitter.”

“Emily did an outstanding job watching our two cats for the first time. Both are happy and healthy after our week away. We are glad everything worked out so well, and would definitely recommend.”

“Fantastic caretaker for our kitties while we were gone. Gave great updates, kept in contact as needed, was kind and prompt and professional. Will definitely be looking to book again when we need to!”

“Absolutely grateful for Maddie and how much care she gave to my kitty. When I got home everything was perfect and just as we discussed. Will be booking with her from here on out!”

“We love Ashley! We have her regularly walk our golden retriever, and also had her do drop in visits for our cat while we were out of town. She is very thorough, and it is obvious she cares for our animals. She is very attentive and goes above and beyond!”

“Stephanie did a wonderful job watching our little Milo and keeping me updated with how he was adjusting to his stay with her and family. Thank you for a wonderful care while I went out of town.”


About: Hi, I’m Bree — a passionate dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all breeds, sizes, and ages! I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and worked with rescue organizations to help dogs find their forever homes, so I truly understand how to build trust and provide a calm, loving environment. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or extended stays, I always prioritize your dog’s physical exercise, mental stimulation, and emotional well-being. From long-term house sitting to quick potty breaks and training reinforcement, I tailor each visit to your pup’s unique needs. I’m patient, reliable, and experienced with basic obedience, so you can feel confident that your dog is in caring and capable hands. Flexible availability and open to full-time sitting or walking upon request. I’d love to meet you and your furry best friend! As an online health and fitness coach who works from home, and part time in person personal trainer, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day with ease. I’m available for regular walks, check-ins, and quality time throughout the day, and I love incorporating outdoor activity into my routine. Your pup will always have my full attention and care, without being rushed. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your routine closely, ensure secure leash handling, and respect your home as if it were my own. I always do a quick check for hazards before walks, use positive reinforcement, and stay in communication with updates, so you always know your pup is in good hands.
“Marissa did a great job letting our boy out and hanging out with him. She showed up right and time and did exactly as we asked. Looking forward to having her back again!!”

“Dana did such a fantastic job taking care of my three cats! She is a great listener and she did everything my cats needed and more. She is such a kind person, and you can tell she really loves cats because it shows in how she cares for them. I was really nervous to leave my cats for a week but with Dana taking care of them, I knew I didn’t have to worry about a thing while I was gone. She sent me a report card with lots of pictures after every visit, which made me feel so much more at ease on my vacation. She really went above and beyond for my cats and I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am for her hard work while I was gone. Dana, you’re the best and I appreciate you so much!”

“We had a sitter that moved away and she recommended Libby. She did an absolutely excellent job, was here when scheduled, and asked questions to verify things. I like that, better than guessing. The house was in great shape when we got home, cats were as happy as cats can be. We will absolutely be booking her again!!”

“Emma was amazing! She was punctual and spent quality time with my cats! She sends amazing pictures of my cats everyday. She is very knowledgeable about my cats and i learned a few things! I look forward to working with Emma again in the future.”
