“I cannot say enough good things about Alecia! One of our dogs is not always friendly to strangers and Alecia was so kind and understanding of the situation. She kept me updated on them while we were away and did everything she could to put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter…. She will give your fur babies l the love and attention they want!”


2. Lorelei P.

“Lorelei took such good care of our pup all weekend and kept us updated on how she was doing every day. She sent lots of pictures and made sure our dog had everything she needed! We would use her again in a heartbeat!!”


3. Haley M.
“Where do I even begin! Haley has always and will always be my first choice to help me with my pets!! My dog is a shelter dog and while he is friendly with everyone, he has since they met acted like Haley his family too! Outside of my mother and myself, my dog has always been cautious. But he comes right to Haley every time he sees her and is so excited! Haley has taken him on walks and been very calm and easy without any hiccups. My dog also has a lot of health issues and has even let Haley give him his insulin shots and taken pills from her without any problems! Haley has even taken care of my mom’s senior dog before she passed away, and my mom’s new puppy without hesitation! There is no one I would trust more than Haley with my dog when I am needing someone to help take care of my dogs!”

“Jenna was outstanding & our dogs loved her! Responsive, punctual & responsible highlight Jenna care & thoughtfulness of our pets & our home. We will definitely book her again and, without hesitation, recommend her as your next Rover sitter! She is amazing!”


6. Danyelle S.
“Danyelle is a very responsible individual whom I would trust with any pet! Her empathetic and selfless heart shine through especially when working with animals. Personally, seeing her with my own cats is so heartwarming. When she first met my rescue kitten, Simon, he warmed up to her immediately despite his lack of affection towards me. I’ve never seen a cat more well-loved than her cat Gunther, and the bond she’s been able to grow with her is so touching. She is so passionate about kindness towards every living being- not just animals, but in the people she interacts with day to day as well”

10. Lilia T.
“We contacted Lilia last minute due to our sitter backing out. She was so helpful and nice. Our big pup is a special case and needs daily medication. Lilia not only gave him his meds, she worked with him on his manners. She kept us informed about our fur babies and quite has been the best sitter we’ve had for the boys! She sent us a ton of pictures! What fur parent doesn’t love that!? 5 out of 5 stars easily!”

12. Olivia H.
About: I have a 4. year old dog, Kane who doesn’t know a stranger. Human or dog alike. I spent a year assisting in the training of K9, schutzhund, and over all protection/ obedience. I’ve grown up with dogs of all sorts and absolutely love them. I spent a lot of time volunteering at the local animal shelters in Kansas City, where I am originally from, so I am good with dogs behaviors and what to do and not to do’s. I can take your dog on a run, or pop in and give him his food and play for a bit. Or even stay over night if your pup is uncomfortable in new surroundings and needs to be in his home space! I’d love to care for your dog! I work hybrid and when I am in the office I don’t have issues stepping out to take walks and when I’m working from home I take several breaks to go on walks or the park. I stay super active and make sure my dog and any dog I care for has lots of enrichment and stimulation! I make sure that I’m always in a safe environment and make the dogs feel comfortable.
