“Parker was great with our pups for a nearly 3 week house sitting stay. He was very responsive and took wonderful care of all 3 of our huskies! Huskies can be very demanding on attention and care and Parker handled it with ease - not to mention walking 3 huskies twice a day is no easy task! The pups all took to him right away when we did our meet and greet and we felt very comfortable with having him stay in our home so we could enjoy our vacation without worry. He was very communicative and took great care of the house. He went above and beyond with helping keep the place clean and watering our plants outside! We feel we can take more trips now without worry as we have a great sitter available and knows our pups through and through. We highly recommend Parker as a dog sitter who will take wonderful care of your furry loved ones and of course your home.”


“Aileen was so good with my dogs. She sent lots of update photos and kept in touch. My dogs are on the shy side but they warmed up to her very fast. She is so sweet and my dogs loved her will definitely be booking whenever they need a sitter!”

About: I’ve worked with pets of all kinds for more than 20 years. I’ve worked with cats, dogs, birds, fish, lizards, snakes, gerbils, hamsters, rabbits, toads, hermit crabs, and snails. I do charge slightly more for snails because while slow, they are slippery little suckers. I am very organized. I focus on having a routine for the animals because they need it and appreciate it. I know most animals appreciate predictability and attention. I only go to a client’s home. I would rather see the pet on their turf and follow their rules as opposed to taking them out of their safety zone.

About: I prioritize clear, timely communication with owners and provide honest updates, photos, and notes after each visit. I have taken care of several different pets such as cats and dogs. I will always ensure the best care for the pets under my supervision. I can also keep up with high energy pets, but also provide calm energy for the pets who like to just hang around. I am currently working part time and will be attending medical school starting in the fall. My weekends are almost always free and can frequently provide overnight care during the week. I will ensure to provide clear and frequent communication with host when taking care of your pets in your home or when visiting. Trust is a priority to me when taking care of your pets so I will ensure it is earned from both your pets and from yourself.

About: I’ve always had animals around while growing up. I don’t think I can recall a time I haven’t had a pet. I even insisted on rescuing my dear Daizie May when I was 12 from the pound. I’ve helped raise several litters and rescue any dog I see in need. I have to actively stay off Facebook as to not fall into fostering or taking in any animal in need. My boyfriend calls me a Disney Princess with the way I communicate with my animals. It’s all about body language, respect, and patience. Trust is extremely important. I currently work a flexible schedule in my family owned business and am looking for side jobs that I also am passionate about. Any time that I’m needed I can usually make it work. I’m ready to follow and assist in whatever systems are set up in your family and household. Whatever your fur family is used to! Photos are VERY important and cherished.
About: Hello my furry friend lovers!! I have cared for many different kinds of animals in my life, some of which include dogs,cats,birds,mice,rabbits,guinea pigs,fish,snakes,goats,chickens and now pot belly pigs. We love making homemade treats in our house so I am currently taking some pet nutrition classes to safely make special dietary treats. I am comfortable with all ages and sizes. I would be more than happy to meet you before any final decisions are made so that we can discuss everything there is to know about your pet. I have experience with different illnesses and medications from working with a rescue where I adopted my own angel with a neurological disorder. We absolutely adore pets and I can promise you that you and your baby will be treated like family. I am a stay at home wife that is taking pet nutrition and business classes so I could someday open my own pet boutique where everything is homemade. I promise no potty breaks will be missed and your baby gets all the love and cuddles they can handle. 😊 We have dogs, cats and pot belly pigs for your pet to play with in our fenced yard but we also have big crates for separation if needed. Your baby will be allowed on our furniture to sleep and get cuddles unless you say otherwise lol we do love our snuggles.

About: I've always had friends with dogs and have done house and dog sitting for many years without any issues. I also have a saint Bernard, Banks! I'm currently looking for a new job after I was laid off from my former job. I have a lot of time on my hands currently so I have open availability. I take my doggo out on walks every day! We're also lazy from time to time but we're usually more active. I'm very engaged with my dog as he can be very energetic so I can definitely handle bigger dogs with a lot of energy.
“If I could, I would give Courtney 6 stars. She was so great with my 7 month old golden doodle puppy. She was able to come in for a last minute meet and greet the day before. She was thorough and was very mindful of our needs. Courtney was very punctual and in fact arrived earlier than the scheduled time.. She followed intructions to the t and also went out of her way to take care of my puppy. She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and videos of my puppy. She even fed my fish while dog sitting for me. She treated our home with utmost respect. I would love to have her take care of my dog again!”

“I don't want to tell you how wonderful Melissa is because we don't want to share her! She is such a sweet and gentle person and had just the right touch with our slightly over-protective boxer/pitbull. But he fell instantly in love with her. Don't use her unless you want your dog to fall in love with her too!”

“Lynette is everything you look for in a petsitter. During the initial visit, she's very transparent about her schedule which removes any uncertainty about when she won't be with the dogs. She is very kind and let the dogs stay on the bed with her. She's very responsive with her texts and we found our house exactly the same way we left it. We are also very happy that she was willing to water our plants for us. Above all, she is reliable and trustworthy. We would use her again.”

About: From as far back as I can remember I have loved animals of all kinds. My experience with taking care of them goes back equally as far. Throughout the years I have been a manager at Petco, a pet parent many times, a shelter volunteer, and now I have evolved into rescue transport. In 2003 I started FunnyBunnies Pet Sitting & Dog Walking, which has operated in Colorado, Hawaii and now California, and I have loved every minute of it. I have experience with every life stage, am honest, as well as loving and dependable. I will keep your furbabies happy while you are away, and I will be giving you regular updates. I have references you may call if you do so wish. I appreciate all consideration.

“Nicole is truly one in a million! From her sweet demeanor to her love of animals-we were immediately comfortable leaving our precious (and VERY spoiled) pups with her. We received messages twice daily with pictures and we loved it because we have a very senior golden we were apprehensive about leaving. Nicole made sure he got his meds and our dogs absolutely LOVE her! Nicole is amazing!”

“Rachel and her daughter Ireland were great! Both very friendly and professional and I was kept me updated with photos and videos the whole time. I appreciate the effort and care for my 3 dogs while we were away.”

Alexandria went so above and beyond during this stay at our house for 6 days. She cared for our older cat who did not give her much in return and yet Alexandria persisted with love and sweetness and companionship. Last time I left the cat for many days under another persons care, my cat lost a significant percent of her body weight out of stress. But with Ali, I came home to a fat, happy cat!!! Ali cleaned my house before she left, did laundry, and took the garbage for the week with her when she left. I was quite nervous to trust a stranger and the Rover app to vet someone to live in my home for 6 days. But all my doubts and worries were a waste of energy because Ali was so very responsible, lovely, communicative, and she took care of the house and cat in unexpected and very thoughtful ways. Can’t say enough positive things about Ali. Thank you Alexandria!!!!

Alexandria and her boyfriend are really sweet. One of our dogs is typically fearful of men, but she warmed up to him immediately. They were both very attentive and clearly knowledgeable about dog behavior and nutrition. We felt very comfortable leaving our girls in their care.
