“I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.”

About: I like to update you on your pet/s every day, how they did and how they played. I also like to send pictures to you of your pet/s and videos for you to enjoy! I'm here to help right when you need me. I enjoy caring for all pet family and updating you with photos or calls of our time together. Reach out for more info. Pet care is heavily dependent on owner instructions and my own care experience. My attention is based on scheduled care and includes daily walks, proper meal preparation and admission, medications as necessary and active/brain play and independent settling.
About: I have been surrounded by dogs since I was born. I've always loved to spend time with them and have been responsible of feeding, cleaning, and grooming them ever since I can remember. I have a full-time job right now, but was looking to spend my free time doing something I enjoy and I cound imagine any time better spent than with the friendliest creatures I can think of: dogs. I keep my dogs in my house all the time so they are always surrounded by us and are constantly being cared for and entertained.
“I really appreciate Alexis‘s patience and grace, while dealing with my energetic and rambunctious puppy. I was very anxious about leaving her as this was my first time away from her since I got her in November. Alexis was gracious and communicated with me often. I’d definitely use her again if she will have us. 😂”

“Matt was amazing with our animals! He took excellent care of them and they all loved him! It was so nice to come home to happy furbabies! We highly recommend Matt if you are looking for the best pet sitter!”

“Miss Anne was fantastic! She house sat our Cavalier pack and everything worked out perfectly. Its obvious she gave them tons of attention because I think they are mad that we came home. Thanks for all the photos and update while we were gone. I sure hope we can use Anne again.”


“Ariana is a wonderful person and took very loving care if Buddy & Sheba. She was very accomodating although we did not book this till the last moment. We were very pleased and will certainly reach out yo her in the future”


“Johana was great with my Yuki. Yuki needs her medicine twice per day, early in the morning and in the evening and Johana was able to make sure she was taken care of. It's not easy for me to trust that Yuki is being taken care of, but Johana did a great job and sent me notes to know that she was ok and happy and safe. She went the extra mile for me and I really appreciate how nice and supportive she is.”

“Kristie watched our two cats and two dogs overnight and was very communicative. She sent photos and updates and clarified instructions for my high needs 16 year old shih tzu. We appreciate all the care and attention to detail!”
“Do not hesitate in hiring Andra! From the moment I met her during our meet and greet I knew that she would be a wonderful fit. She asked lots of questions and made sure that she understood them fully. While we were gone if any questions arose she felt comfortable reaching out to us to question or verify. I am confident that our dogs were very well taken care of. Andra also kept our house immaculate and it was that way upon our return. She also kept us updated daily with text messages and adorable pictures.I would obviously hire her again in a minute. She exceeded our expectations. Thanks Andra”

“Roni was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend her. I have 2 large dobermans and she disciplined, cared and loved on them with ease. She is brilliant! She was constantly in contact with me sending images etc and she is a wonderful person.”


“We love Hailey! She has helped us through last minute emergencies and fun weekend getaways! Without her my kids and I would not be able to leave for more than a couple hours! Your house, farm, and babies are always safe and cared for with Hailey :)”

“This was my first time using Rover, and Josilyn made it the absolute best experience! We did a meet & greet prior to booking, she answered all my questions, and I booked it! She sent me updates and photos of my babies, and she loved on them and treated them as if they were her own! I will definitely book with her again! Thank you so much Josilyn and Rover!”

“Scarlet went above and beyond throughout our trip. She took incredible care of my dog—kept him on his routine, gave him lots of attention, and made sure he was happy and comfortable the whole time. She sent regular updates and photos which really put me at ease. On top of that, she looked after my home and my vehicles in a bit of crisis. She kept me updated, handled everything with care, and was thoughtful and reliable from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend anyone trust their homes and pets with Scarlett!!! Thank you again!!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

“Sandra was great with our 2 dogs and 2 Sphynx cats. She was tentative to their needs and communicated with us the whole time she stayed with them. We will be using her again.”

About: i am a dog trainer with off leash k9, i have grown up with and have trained many different breeds of dogs. i own two dogs, two cats, and a guinea pig. i probably love dogs more than i love people, and if i could live on open land i’d take in as many dogs as i could. i currently work from home training dogs, and make my own schedule. i am usually home most of the day if i don’t have a lesson scheduled. if i do, i am gone around 1-3 hours. i have two friendly dogs, two friendly kittens and a even friendlier toddler. we have a fenced in yard and lots of space to run around and play, along with plenty of treats and toys
“Evan is incredible! He watched our two pups Oreo and sukie for the evening. Sukie can be skeptical of new humans and immediately loved him. He provided great care, updates, and left my house as clean as he found it. I would 10/10 recommend him again.”

“Lindsey was absolutely amazing! She was fantastic with our two pups! She followed their routine perfectly, took them on walks, and kept us updated with great communication throughout. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while we were out of town. We are so appreciative of her!”

This was our second time booking with Dominic and he was just as fantastic as the first. He continues to be reliable, attentive, and truly exceptional. He sends just the right amount of photos and updates-and the pictures made it clear Bruno was happy, relaxed, completely content and in excellent hands. It’s also pretty obvious Bruno and Dominic adore each other, which gives us such peace of mind. Thank you again Dominic!

Everything went Adam went absolutely perfect. Everything from the first introduction, to the process while I was out of town. It’s clear as day he makes it his main priority to give clients to comfort and peace of mind we all need when we leave our dogs at home. 10/10 recommend, and I will 100% be back with him.

Rae did a great job house sitting for us. She stayed in our home, sent daily updates and photos, and was always quick to respond. The communication throughout was great and the dogs were clearly happy and comfortable the whole time. It's a relief to come home to a house in good order and dogs that aren't stressed. Would definitely book again.

Wow, we absolutely love Brooklin! We have never met anyone with better energy! We have two big and young doodles and an older (cranky) beagle mix and her calm energy and love for animals won them over almost immediately. One of our doodles is afraid of new people and normally takes a while to warm up (if he warms up at all) but he absolutely loved Brooklin! We were truly able to enjoy our trip knowing she was taking care of our house and animals with the utmost care and respect and best of all, with joy. We are so lucky we found Brooklin and you will be too!

This was my first time using Rover, and Josilyn made it the absolute best experience! We did a meet & greet prior to booking, she answered all my questions, and I booked it! She sent me updates and photos of my babies, and she loved on them and treated them as if they were her own! I will definitely book with her again! Thank you so much Josilyn and Rover!

Miss Anne was fantastic! She house sat our Cavalier pack and everything worked out perfectly. Its obvious she gave them tons of attention because I think they are mad that we came home. Thanks for all the photos and update while we were gone. I sure hope we can use Anne again.
