I can not say enough great things about Libah. She made my trip so much better because I had no worries about leaving her with my boy Journey. She provided daily pictures and messages. Some days there were multiple communications. She was absoluty great. I would without a doubt, would without hesitation use her again. Trust me if you are looking for a sitter, she is the one you should go to!!

This was our first time using Rover and I was really nervous. Jamie is very kind hearted and our two fur babies enjoyed their time with her. One of our pups usually does not immediately take to people and she went right over to Jamie and visited with her a couple of times during our meet and greet prior to hiring Jamie. Jamie was fine with the instructions we left for feeding, walking, and how to make our fur family feel less stressed by keeping their routine. We already have Jamie scheduled for two more trips we have coming up. Thanks for your help Jamie. ☺️

Ruth was amazing with our dog and cat. She was prompt and very communicative throughout the visit. Our dog required eye drops and medicine and she was able to administer them with no issues. She also cleaned up after the pets and ensured our sheets were clean and ready for us when we came back home on a late flight. Lastly, she even coaxed our very shy cat out from hiding! We appreciate her professionalism and taking such great care of our pets!

Erika helped us out in a pinch when we needed to make travel arrangements last minute. She watched our two big dogs in our home for a weekend. One of our dogs needs special attention (medicine, lots of physical and cognitive exercise), and Erika did a fantastic job. Erika was professional, communicative, kind and caring, and attentive to our dogs' needs. I felt completely reassured that our dogs were being well cared for. When we returned home, our pups were tired and well behaved. I'm sure they miss her already. We'd work with Erika again in a heartbeat.

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life and recently started watching pets for my friends & neighbors. I enjoy being with animals and making sure they are happy and pampered. I'm retired and I have a very flexible schedule to take care of your pets any time you need. Days, nights, weekends, holidays and overnight stays welcome. Whatever your pet needs to stay healthy and active I can accommodate. Walking, playing, scooping, feeding, watering, and dosing meds plus a daily update with photo.

Having Bailey housesit for us was such a gift. Her communication was great, she helped problem solve kitty situations while we were away, and I knew our kittos were in good caring hands. We came home after being away for just over a week to a tidy home and happy kitties. I wouldn’t hesitate asking her to help us again.

About: I've been pet-sitting since I was 10 years old. I grew up around dogs and farm animals, and have always loved taking care of them. I'm familiar with all type of breeds and energy levels. I am a voice teacher and singer, so my schedule is very flexible. I can work around almost anything and will be able to give consistent care if needed. Each animal is unique, and I pride myself on being able to adapt easily to new routines so that your fur baby can continue their day with little to no upsets.

She sent photos and updates and I never worried about their care while I was away. I’ll definitely be using Michaela for future services.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the genuine love and patience I bring to every animal I care for. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means helping a puppy learn good habits with gentle, consistent training or giving extra love and comfort to a senior dog who just wants a calm, cozy space. I treat every pet like family, and my goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is a very important part of my daily and weekly routine. I organize my time around their needs, making sure to include walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love. I enjoy adjusting my day to give them company and attention, whether it’s for scheduled visits or longer stays. For me, it’s not just a task—it’s one of the best parts of my week! When I care for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or medication—so they feel at ease. In my home, I provide a calm and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to relax and play. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pet gets personalized care and attention, just like they would if their family were there.

Ian was a fantastic sitter! I had him stay at my house since my puppy had just gotten spayed and wasn’t used to being alone — he did a tremendous job! He was communicative, respectful and followed all the instructions closely. He was also flexible with pick up and drop off since it changed a couple of times and my pup immediately liked him ? I will definitely use him in the future and will tell all my local friends about him as well!

About: My name is Emma and I am a lifetime pet owner as well as a pet foster parent, cat sitter, and dog walker/sitter for the past 12 years. I'm ready to love on your animals! I work from home as a grad student, so I'm extremely flexible as well as reliable and committed. I love working with dogs of all breeds, but have a soft spot for bully breeds. My partner owns a dog walking/sitting business in another state specializing in bully breeds and reactive dogs, so I have a ton of experience working with reactive or nervous dogs and can give tips or small amounts if you desire. My apartment complex also has a dog park if you need it! I've owned cats all my live, most recently siberian cats and maine coons, I don't have any pets right now, so i'd love to take care of your kitties as well. Looking forward to chatting about your needs! I strive to create routines and positive experiences for your fur babies. My schedule is entirely flexible and I have a car. I love opportunities to get out of the house. I walk some dogs already in my building but have a very open schedule as I recently moved to the area I live in a pet friendly complex with two fenced in dog parks and a dog washing station. I can do whatever will make your pet feel best, be it crating dog or letting them sleep on the bed. I have no pets right now so no concerns there. I leave houses extremely tidy and will follow all instructions to the letter while caring for your pet in your home!

I can’t recommend Carly enough as a wonderful pet caregiver! She’s incredibly attentive, dependable, and treats every pet with love, like they’re part of her family. When she took care of my dog, she made it a point to learn his habits, like his fear of loud noises or his love for chasing his shadow. She kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos of their walks and playtime, which gave me so much peace of mind. Carly has a genuine passion for animals, and it truly shines through in everything she does. Whether it’s bringing along an extra toy, comforting them during thunderstorms, or showering them with love when you’re away. You can really tell how much she cares. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my pup!
