I couldn’t say in words how wonderful Rose is!!! I came home to what felt like another Airbnb… all the linens were folded and cleaned and the house was clean!!! She kept us up to date on the dogs and was genuinely concerned for a safe drive home!! Seriously book her in advance!! We did and so glad we did because she was quick to respond and so respectful as well as asking any questions. And she books quickly!!

Abby was so wonderful staying with our dog, Rizzo! She was responsive and communicative each day letting us know our guy was in great hands. We’ll be sure to book her again next time we’re looking for a sitter!

Jessica is great! Our pup has separation anxiety and she goes above and beyond to make him happy while we are away. We will definitely be asking her to watch him again and I highly recommend her services.

Madi was fantastic! Wrigley is a high energy dog and he got daily trips to the dog park and even a trip to the pet store. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos. The house was spotless when we got home and Wrigley seemed very happy! This was our first time with a sitter and we were pretty nervous since our dog has separation anxiety, however with Madi here I don’t think he even realized we were gone. We’re already adding Madi to the calendar for next time, and would recommend them again and again!!!

Sarah is always so good with my critters!! Both my cat and dog enjoy her visits a lot. My dog sits and looks out the window for her when I say she's going to be their sitter for the night ? she's really genuinely nice and the animals enjoy her company.

This was our first time using Andrea and she really did a fantastic job! We were nervous as we haven’t really had that great of luck with our past house/pet sitters. She took time to meet us and even took notes on how to care for our fur babies. Our house was left as we had left it and she spent genuine time with our pets. So pleased with her and already have her scheduled for another one! Highly recommend her!! :)

Katlin was so considerate with us and our two doggies. She house sat for us while we were out of town. We've got a puppy, Peach and a 5 year old, Zelda. Peach is definitely a handful and Zelda requires meds daily. Katlin did a fantastic job of handling everything they threw at her. Peach ended up having stomach problems and Katlin took care of everything beautifully. We came home and the house was absolutely spotless and I know our dogs can make quite the mess. To top it all off, our construction contractor decided last minute that they were going to start on the exterior of our house and Katlin was extremely accommodating even though there was a dump trailer in the driveway and I'm sure lots of noise the last few days of her stay. I would definitely recommend Katlin to anyone, your doggies will without a doubt be well taken care of and your house will look like nobody had been there.

Sidney did a wonderful job house-sitting our 2 kitties. It was our first time using rover so we were a bit nervous, but she was great about communication & giving frequent updates. Our house was even cleaner than we had left it! We would very much recommended Sidney for pet sitting and would use her for future trips.

Jessica watched our three dogs several times. She was great with communicating throughout the process. One of our dogs is very nervous around new people and Jessica was super patient with her…by the time we came home from our trip they were best friends! I highly recommend Jessica for anyone looking for a super kind and patient pet sitter!

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Neighbors, friends and family have all relied on me to walk, feed and bathe and even style their pets! Not only did I take care of others but I have my very own fur baby that I’ve been taking care of since I was a kid. I’m currently a part-time college student, a dog groomer, content creator and an aspiring entrepreneur to open my own business one day. I love to stay busy and active so your pup will get plenty of energy with me! I love to work out routinely and it’s so much more fun with dogs at my side! I am available all week and weekends just shoot me a text to let me know ahead of time, what’s your schedule, etc. I have a fenced yard and I have a dog of my own to keep your fur baby accompanied! I can crate my dog or yours if needed. I love all dogs as they are my own. It’s in my religion that animals are most sacred, so you can trust your pet is in good hands! I’m not greedy, not in this for the money, I’m willing to negotiate prices, whatever’s easier for you and to make your life more peaceful. Seriously! I do not mind! :)

Torina was excellent at caring for my 2 dogs over the weekend. Our dogs have different activity levels and needs, and she was great with both of them. She sent lots of pictures while we were away and left the house clean. I've already booked her again for another stay:)
