“This was Alison’s second time staying with Snacks and we hope she will be back for more. Great updates, happy, comfortable pup and a clean house. We are so thankful for the wonderful care she provides!”

“We are new to Rover. We met Madison at the park prior to our booking to make sure it was a good fit for her and our two beagles. She was on time and easy to talk to. We could tell the dogs were going to be fine with her. We had left her with a document of the dogs' daily routine. She did great following the instructions. While on our trip, she would text us updates and pictures. That was very thoughtful of her to do that. It made being away easier on us. The hardest part of taking care of our dogs is walking them because one likes to bark at everything and pull and the other one likes to lunge at cars. She did great and to our surprise, they behaved better for her! We would highly recommend her to anyone that needs a dog/house sitter.”


“We’re so glad we found Elizabeth! We felt at ease leaving the dogs with them because they are caring. They sent updates, pictures, and videos of our dogs which gave us peace of mind. We were a little bit worried because one of our dogs is a rescue who does not trust people immediately, but he felt so comfortable with Elizabeth and they were great with him. We’re lucky to have found Elizabeth on rover and hope to have them watch our dogs again in the future! Thank you Elizabeth!”

“Fynch has anxiety and Dina worked with him to gain his trust. She sent me pictures regularly as well. She left the house clean, including taking out the trash before leaving. I've never used this service before but I very well may in the future!”
“Lacey did an outstanding job with Leroy and really focused on him while I was away. She is someone you can trust around your pet to ensure all their need are taken care of. If you need a sitter or walker, Lacey is your person!”

“Thank you so much for watching over our babies. I felt super comfortable since we did do a meet and greet before the actual babysitting. She sent pictures every day and we really did feel like they were in great hands. Will definitely book again.❤️🙏🏼”

“Not sure who liked her more our dog or us!!! Sammie is amazing! Followed the directions for our dog down to the very finest detail. She communicates often and clearly and took care of everything we needed. We highly recommend Sammie and will calling her in the future!”

“Jeremiah was wonderful. He took great care of our dogs and our home while we were away. Raven and Loki were very comfortable with Jeremiah from their first meeting. I believe they had a nice relaxing vacation while we were on our trip. 🙂”


“Christina did a wonderful job with our dog and 2 cats. She was professional, arranging a meetup and taking seriously all our pets needs. She went above and beyond to make our pets and ourselves feel secure. She provided regular updates and took plenty of photos. She kept our house clean and even provided toys for the pets. We recommend Christina for anyone needing her services.”
“My cat had a health emergency 2 days before I had a trip planned - Sabrina agreed to house sit for me last minute and give him meds 4 times a day. She is an angel! She totally saved me in this stressful situation. She took great care of both my cats, gave the sick one all his doses, and communicated well with me about his health status the whole time! My cats and I love her!!!! She's so sweet and caring and I instantly trusted her with my pets and she did NOT disappoint!!!”


About: I grew up surrounded by dogs both small and large, but I’ve learned the most from my sweet boy Elvis. He’s taught me how significant it is to respect the individualities of each animal, to be observant and also responsive, and how much of a joy it is to appreciate those qualities. Each pet communicates differently, they have different needs. It is very important to me that your pet is seen and that they feel safe, comfortable, and are having a great time!!!!!!!!! I’m currently taking online classes, it gives me open availability and the time to adore your pet! I’m available in the mornings, afternoons, and on weekends. I will care for your pets as if they are my own!!! I want nothing more than to follow your pets regular schedule and do what they want to do!!!!!!
About: Hello! My name is Aryelle. I have a passion for taking care of animals and love to spend quality time with our furry friends! I started pet sitting and dog walking when I was fresh out of high school in 2020. I would do it for my neighbors as they would travel quite often! Then I started to do it for my family members when I went back to school to make some extra cash on the side, along with my part time job, but I like to view pet care more as a hobby than “working”. I am currently a babysitter for a family every week and that also includes sitting there husky and cat! (And even feeding their koi fish!) I have experience in sitting different breeds of dogs. Mostly small and medium size but I have watched a few large dogs! I myself have 4 doggos. 3 small ones (a poodle/shih tzu mix, a chihuahua and their son!) and one big boy! (Rottweiler/heeler mix) They all have different personalities and that’s what I love most about pets. Another thing I thought might be helpful to add is that I once shadowed my aunt who is a veterinarian for a school project and I have learned a lot by doing so! I currently have availability weekdays and I am pretty flexible with hours! I am very active! I love going to the gym every and hitting my cardio by going on walks. So I thought, why not get my cardio in while walking your fur baby? That sounds like a win win situation! Your pets safety is my top priority. I’ll do everything to make sure that your fur friend is in great hands. This includes giving you frequent updates and sending you pics of your baby! I am available to provide drop ins, walks, feeding, playing and providing medication if needed. I’m more than happy to hang by for a little to attend your pets needs. Whether that’s by playing with toys, giving them treats & spoiling them with pets and cuddles. I know how important company is for fur babies, so I’ll be sure to treat your pets as if they were my own.☺️ Depending on your area I would love to take your pet to any local parks/dog parks. I am also open for any suggestions you may have. I am looking forward to meet you and your fur friends soon! 🐶🐾 PS- I have a minor allergy to cat hair, it’s manageable and doesn’t really bother me unless I pet them too much. (Which can be hard to resist at times because I love cats as much as I do dogs!😂) I don’t mind doing drop ins and feeding your cat just thought I’d put that out there!
“Amber/Ash was fantastic with my cats. She connected with them easily, kept their schedule, and was respectful and kind with all of us. They were clearly content and yet happy to see me when I returned. She was flexible when I decided to return a day earlier than planned and was responsive on the app when texting her. I'd have her back anytime!”

About: I own my own cat sanctuary, I feed an army of stray cats in my backyard. I have fostered newborn kittens. I was also a dog bather for a little over a year. I have full flexibility and availability in my schedule, I am currently unemployed looking to make this my full time job. I can come over at any time of the day. In a clients house I will feed the animal and let them go outside/walk them. Make sure your pet didn’t make any accidents in the house and clean up any mess that is made. I will also make sure your cuddly friend gets lots of attention and love.

Evelyn is fantastic! ❤️ We definitely will recommend her and we will book again soon with her! She is sweet, responsible, professional and communicative. My dog Leo was sick and she took care of him. This gave us so much peace while we were traveling. She send us videos and photos and that was a plus! Thank you Evelyn

We feel very fortunate to have Dakota caring for our home and our fur family (1 big old dog, and 2 cats). He cared for them and sent us updates and pictures everyday as to how things were going at home, and specifically, with our fur family. We came home to a clean home and pets who were happy to see us, but not at all stressed. We will definitely call on Dakota again, and we're relieved to have a plan should we choose to leave home for business or pleasure going forward. I certainly imagine you would have the same experience with Dakota!

Charlotte was a great sitter for my elderly dog. She really loves animals and was so kind to my dog Betty. She housesat for me and always communicated well and my home and Betty were in perfect shape when we got home. She was able to troubleshoot when Betty had potty accidents in the home and made sure to send lots of photos. Would book again and recommend.

Larissa did an outstanding job taking care of our girl! She kept up well informed on how things were going and provided us with a bunch of pictures, which helped us not miss Hidee quite so much. With Larissa's care, Hidee bounced back from us leaving her, coming around much faster than she normally does when we aren't around. We'll happily use Larissa's services again.

Helena was an absolute delight! She met with us beforehand, which was helpful because we have an anxious dog and we have never left her alone with someone she doesn’t know. While staying at our house, she took care of our cat, and the birds we feed too. She did an impeccable job! We returned to a house that was perfectly in order, and to animals that were well loved Highly recommend!
