“Erin house-sat for us when we needed a cat sitter for four days on short notice. She was amazing! Her connection to the kitties and thoughtful, conscientious approach to the care of our beloved companions set my mind at ease. It was clear from our first conversation that she was trustworthy and dependable, which was reassuring since we've never had a house-sitter. We have a senior cat who requires twice-daily medication and Erin handled all his special needs. She communicated clearly, left the house in excellent condition, and is also just a wonderful person all around!”
“This was my second time booking Alina. She is very conscientious. This time my cat needed meds. My cat was very well taken care. Thanks Alina!”
“Riss was fantastic! I came home to my staff/pit mix being very relaxed and comfortable. It seems like he had a nice time with riss. She was very communicative and shared updates and photos. I highly recommend! Also, the house was spotless, that’s very much appreciated”
“Emily was fantastic! She was super communicative, dependable and responsive. She watched my two dogs and two cats -- and they all adored her. I felt great leaving her in charge of everybody and will definitely hire her again when I need a petsitter.”
About: I specialize in attentive, stress-free cat care, with a deep understanding of feline behavior and needs. I’ve also cared for dogs and know how to ensure they feel safe, seen, and comfortable. My calm presence and attention to detail set me apart when it comes to compassionate, reliable pet care. My schedule allows for catering to all of a pet's needs: feeding, grooming, walking, playing and enrichment, medication administration, etc. I can also do multiple drop-ins per day/extended drop-ins for pets that need company throughout the day. I live in an apartment complex, so I would not be able to host your pet in my home, but I have reliable transport at and would love to come to you!

“Jessica was SO awesome! She babysat our two dogs in our home at the last minute and she took care of them as if they were her own. She took them for walks even though she didn't have to, she sent us pictures and she took excellent care of our home during her stay. I can't recommend her highly enough! I hope we are lucky enough to book her the next time we have to go out of town!”

Don't hesitate to have her care for your grumpy old dog, energetic larger dog or your cats. She handles it all with ease. I've already booked her for our next trip.”
“Katherine was a lifesaver for our family. We had a last-minute trip and she did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 dogs, one of which tends to be a little skittish and shy. We received lots of photos and updates and she was respectful of the space. Highly recommend.”
“Emily is AMAZING and did a fabulous job house + pup sitting while we were out of town. Her warm and caring manner instantly won our pups over and they had a wonderful weekend together.

I'm currently not working so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets throughout the weekday & weekends. If you're interested, I'd be happy to take your dog on a hike for a longer walk/more exercise. Yes, I have a fenced in yard. When your dog is with me, I will treat them like my own and they will get loved on throughout their time with me.

linda n.
“Linda watches my 2 year old Great Dane, Ivan, while I travel a lot for work at my house with the fenced in yard. She made him into a truck dog and he LOVES going for truck rides with her now. She takes such good care of him and she even turns the sink faucet on for him when he prefers a drink of "fresh" water instead of the bowl! She loves him like he's her own, and I always feel comfortable that my baby is being given lots of love and well taken care of when I am away. She is familiar with the e-collar training, and sends lots of great pupdates. His favorite is running along side her four wheeler and playing with her dog. For the right dog who likes a little bit of farm life, Linda is the perfect pet get away.”
Hila Y.
“My dog is my best friend and I'm very selective with the people I let interact with her. I now know Hila is one of those people. Hila treated my pup with extra special love and kindness. I will no doubt use Hila any time I'm in need of someone to care for my dog.”

Over 3 pet parents in Ruby have booked house sitting
Ruby pet parents share their Rover experiences
Rima is our very first house/pet sitter! From the first meet and greet with us and our fur babies, Rima was awesome (she spent almost 2 hours at our house just chatting with us)! When we went on a recent vacation, Rima went above and beyond to care for our fur babies! Our dog (Tucker) and kitty cat (Stormy) were so well taken care of and happy. Rima provided us updates throughout the days with videos and photos, giving us peace of mind while we were away. Rima REALLY takes pride in caring for pets. Though we were not expecting anything MORE from Rima, she cleaned our house too! Rima's attention to detail, both with our fur babies and our home, was incredible We have already re-booked with Rima for 2 upcoming trips! We can’t recommend Rima enough—she’s truly an amazing house/pet sitter and person overall! Thank you, Rima, for everything!
Rima was amazing with our little Ozzie!!! It was almost like she could read his mind! She sent us a lot of videos so we could see how well he was doing. She is very communicative and lets you know quickly whether she can come and when she’s on her way. She left our house, nice and clean! We highly recommend Rima and we plan to use her services again and again! Thank you so much, Rima <3
