“Jen took wonderful care of my two cats while I was away! I received daily updates and pictures, which really put my mind at ease. She arrived around the same time each day, kept them on their feeding schedule, and made sure they were comfortable and cared for. Both of my cats were happy, healthy, and relaxed when I came home. I really appreciated the consistency and communication, everything went smoothly. Would definitely book again!”
“Kathleen is a great pet care provider. We booked her on a short notice and she was there immediately to take care of our cat. She was on time every day and make sure she is not only giving food and water to our cat but also try to play with our cat. We saw pictures everyday with a detailed note. It was an excellent experience overall. We will always book her for our pet. Thank you, Kathleen.”
“Things went so well with Brittany while I was traveling. My cats responded well to her and she went above and beyond to even take care of the outdoor cats that like to visit. Definitely will rebook for future needs.”
About: All Fur Babies Are Family! 🐾 Hey there, pet lovers! I’m all about bringing fun, love, and genuine care to every furry friend I meet. From a young age, animals have held a special place in my heart, and it brings me so much joy to give them the attention and affection they deserve. I started pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family when I was just 13, and it quickly became clear that caring for animals was more than just a hobby—it was a lifelong passion. I’ve also volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I learned the importance of creating a positive, nurturing, and safe environment for every pet. To me, pets aren’t “just pets”—they’re cherished family members who fill our lives with unconditional love and happiness. That’s why I treat every fur baby I care for as if they were my own. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of sharing my home with five large dogs and two cats. Though my beloved pets have since passed, each one taught me something unique about different breeds, personalities, and the special bonds we share with our animals. Whether your furry friend is big or small, playful or shy, you can rest assured they’ll be in caring and capable hands. My goal is to make every visit safe, comfortable, and filled with love—because every pet deserves to feel like part of the family. 💕 I currently work a 9-5 job Monday through Friday. When I am not working will be spending all of my time making sure your fur babies are being taken care of and shown much love! My pet-sitting services are solely offered in the client's home, drop-ins or walking. I will make sure to maintain a safe and happy environment for your pets. I am happy to follow through with your pet's daily routine and schedule. During my stay, I ensure your pet has fresh water and food, and plenty of exercise and playtime to keep them active and healthy. I will take the time to learn your pet's unique needs and behaviors, providing personalized care that promotes both their physical and emotional well-being.
“Deepthi was great at watching my cat! She did everything I asked and had great communication. Cat seemed very happy and healthy when I returned home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“Kaylee did a great job. Very communicative and flexible when there was issues with our garage door opener while we were away. Glad to have her able to check in on our dog while we were away for a trip.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life! I recently had to put my dog down this past year so I’m feeling the itch to want to take care and love your animals before adopting my own. I’m currently home a lot and work a few nights a week at a comedy club so I have plenty of time to play and spend quality time with your pet. I don’t have a fenced yard but I have a huge back yard so there’s plenty of space for them to run around on a leash! I also love going on walks so they’ll get plenty of exercise.
“Paula is amazing! She knew exactly how to approach our picky German shepherd and adjusted to his needs. She was very calm and comfortable with him. She became his best friend when she walked in with a pup cup in hand. So happy to have found someone reliable we can count on to take care of our fur baby when we go out of town. Thank you!!”
“Emma was wonderful with Wall-E and Eva! She was attentive, communicative, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. My two orange cats can be particular, and Emma took the time to follow their routines and keep me updated with photos and messages while I was away. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, HIGHLY recommend!”
About: I have been a pet mom for 53 years, I have adopted, rescued and volunteered. I have experience in self employed pet sitting.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover. I had dogs as a child and cats as an adult. I will give your pet lots of love and attention. I truly believe that pets are our best friends! They give us unconditional love and great joy! I have worked for a professional dog walking/pet sitting company since 2016 and love it. I am on Rover to offer my services to clients in my neighborhood. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to keep your fur baby happy. I am available 7 days a week for overnights, dog walks, and in-house visits. When I take care of your pet in your home, I will always make sure that your pet is happy, safe, and comfortable. On overnight visits with dogs, I like to have the dog sleep with me if allowed.
“Madeline did a great job with Madison especially with kind of a last minute booking so I appreciate her flexibility. She did a great job with my dog and I came home to a happy dog so I would definitely book her again!”

Kathleen is a great pet care provider. We booked her on a short notice and she was there immediately to take care of our cat. She was on time every day and make sure she is not only giving food and water to our cat but also try to play with our cat. We saw pictures everyday with a detailed note. It was an excellent experience overall. We will always book her for our pet. Thank you, Kathleen.
Nathalia took wonderful care of my cat, SunTie! She was very responsible, kind, and attentive, and followed his care instructions carefully. I really appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing SunTie was in good hands while I was away. I would definitely recommend Nathalia and would be happy to book with her again in the future!
I’m very happy to have found Doreen as a cat sitter. She visits once a day and is reliable, thoughtful, and clearly cares about animals. She even feeds the few feral cats who have taken up residence on my back deck and includes photos of them in her updates. One of my cats is extremely difficult and dislikes just about everyone, but he clearly tolerates her (which is very high praise) and is always waiting for his food when she arrives. My other cat requires two pills daily, and she has no trouble giving them to him.
Faatima was wonderful with our cats, and from pictures alone we know they were comfortable and enjoyed her. We could tell at the meet and great the genuine care she would have for them. Her communication has been thorough and very timely throughout the process. We have already booked another visit with her.
