About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years and truly love caring for animals of all kinds. With plenty of experience, I understand how important it is to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m dependable, flexible with scheduling, and always willing to work with you to meet your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, medication, or just keeping your furry friend company, I’m here to help! I work a full-time rotating schedule where I’m on for 7 days straight and then off for 7 days. My work week always starts on a Thursday and ends on a Wednesday. During those 7 workdays, I’m working full-time each day. After that, I get a full week off to rest and take care of personal things. It’s a repeating cycle—7 days on, 7 days off—so every other week I’m either working or completely off I pet sit because I genuinely love what I do — and animals love me back. Their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. When pets stay with me in my home, they become part of the family. I make sure every animal is well-fed, always has fresh water, and most importantly — plenty of playtime and affection. They get a safe, loving environment where they can relax and feel right at home. When I care for pets in your home, I follow all instructions to the letter — from feeding and medication routines to special care details. I send regular photo updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Respecting your space and your pet’s routine is always a priority. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m staying with them, your pet gets the same thing: love, attention, and top-notch care.

“Lyn was so wonderful! She loved our dogs and they absolutely loved her too . She kept the house completely tidy as well. She communicated throughout each day ,which I loved receiving the updates and of my dogs being so comfortable with her. She definitely cares for others as her own and I can’t say enough wonderful things about her .”

About: I've worked at an animal shelter and grown up with all sorts of animal personalities! Whether your pet is a people person or a hider, I'll accommodate what they need. I'm between jobs right now and want to do something while everyone is still going on vacations and working through the hiring process. This will be the main thing on my schedule until further notice. It's best to stay in the client's home so they can keep everything they want within reach! I'll gladly care for them in their own territory!
“We LOVE Sophia!!! She was awesome, she kept us informed on how our pup was doing, sent pictures and left the house nice and clean. It’s hard to find good people to watch and trust with your fur babies these days! You will definitely feel comfortable letting Sophia take care of them. Thanks Sophia!!!!! We will definitely be using you in the future.”
“Shaela is our overnight dog sitter and does a great job. We feel comfortable traveling knowing she is taking care of the boys. She always does exactly what she says she is going to and communicates with us throughout the stay.”
“Cassy was wonderful and took great care of our dogs! One of them doesn't take to strangers very well, but he warmed up to her very quickly. I didn't feel worried at all because they seemed so comfortable with her. Even though we didn't have cell reception, she still sent tons of pictures of the pups laying around the house and playing outside! If you're looking for someone who is going to treat your dog like their own while you're gone, I would 100% recommend Cassy.”
“Faith is the best! She was very communicative and sent me pictures and updates. It was comforting to know my pup was in great hands while I was gone. I came back to my home being even more clean than I left it! Highly recommend her.”
“Ashua is the most empathetic, kind caring sitter we have ever used through Rover. Ashua had the most trying situation to navigate as our elderly chihuahua passed away while she was sitting for us and she handled the entire situation with grace and heart tending to him to ensure he was comfortable in his final day on this earth. We will be forever grateful for Ashua!!”
