Fantastic care for unusual animals. Amanda was so diligent with the feeding needs of my turtle. She even volunteered a lettuce leaf as a snack. She took great care of the fish without overfeeding and provided medical care for one of them. Then she very kindly agreed to water my plants. Pictures and videos everyday. Lots of communication. I will absolutely use her again and you should too. If she does this well with a turtle, imagine how great you'll be with your cats and dogs.

Kelly is the cat whisperer (for dogs too!!) My 7 month of age ‘Cornish Rex” Luna loved Kelly for knowing everything about kitten/cat life. She provided play time, kitty meal time, along width affection. And during Luna rest time her liter boxes and dishes were cleaned. Kelly also advised me regarding a skin care question I had about Luna too. She is very professional, reliable and experienced with dog/puppy care too. I highly recommend her with confidence.

I had never had a Pet Sitter before and I picked Madison to be the first one and I never could’ve chosen a better Pet Sitter! She took wonderful care of my cat family and they are my family. They’re my kids. I have four of them she showed up every day that I asked her too. She took care of the kids so wonderfully. I can’t even begin to tell you it was awesome! I would recommend Madison as a pet sitter to anybody and I can’t wait till my next trip because I will be requesting if she is free for her to watch my kittens again! She took wonderful care of them. She bought in a box for me that was delivered. I didn’t even know it was going to come and she had no problem with that she showed up on time stayed as long as she was supposed to played with the cat. Send me pictures of playing with the cats and cats are your family. That’s really really important! I have no children. They are my children and she watched my children perfectly thank you Madison!

Donna did a wonderful job with my 2 kitties! She went above and beyond to take care of all their needs and give them lots of TLC. My kitties took to her right away and loved her company! She is very responsive too, which is much appreciated. Already booked another visit. Thanks Donna! ?

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine a home without them. Growing up with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and routines at every stage of life. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve regularly babysat dogs for family members and friends, providing dependable, loving care while they’re away. From daily walks and playtime to feeding schedules and cuddle sessions, I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable in my care. I currently have open availability, which means I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. While my schedule is very flexible, I do ask for advance notice whenever possible so I can plan accordingly and ensure I’m fully prepared to give your pet the best experience. I’m happy to accommodate weekdays, weekends, and extended stays! Your pet’s safety and comfort are super important to me! I offer a calm, loving home where pets are treated just like part of the family. I have one friendly Chihuahua and a curious little ferret who are both used to being around other animals. I always take introductions slowly and supervise to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and set up so pets can relax, play, and feel at ease. You can trust that your pet will get lots of attention, affection, and a safe place to stay while you’re away.

About: I've had a dog my entire life! I'm all about making sure the dogs get proper exercise, love, affection and just a touch of rules. I've been watching my family members pets in there home for the last 10 years and the dogs, cats, and other critters have always been well taken care of, happy, and loved. I have spent some time volunteering with pit bulls and other bully breeds. During these times I've advocated, walked, and brought them to different adoption events. I am a responsible person who has their masters in public health but looking to make money on the side to help with living costs. I currently work Monday through Friday 8 AM to 5 PM. I can spend 30 minutes to a few hours with your dog and we can do many activities together, depending what your dogs needs! I can abide by most training requests and activities that are asked from snuggles to going for a gentle walk! I would love to be welcomed into your home to meet your fur babies! I work full time, generally Monday-Friday 8a-5p. I am flexibility with my time outside of that and am pretty willing to work with your needs. I currently have a cat who is not pet friendly. There my home would not be suitable for overnights stays or visits. Sorry this inconvenience.

Christine was fabulous. She was conscientious and took great care of our cat. She is the first cat sitter we’ve booked (of 2-3 Rover sitters) who has actually come at exactly the time we asked her, consistently. Beyond that, when our travel plans had to change because of airline problems, Christine kindly agreed to extend the booking - even though it was the holidays and I’m sure she had other obligations.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own. I take pride in providing attentive, reliable, and loving care for every pet I meet. I make it a priority to learn each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level to ensure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work Monday 11–8 and Tuesday–Friday 8–5, so I’m available for walks and drop-ins before or after work and on weekends. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I always make time to give them my full attention. I don’t currently board pets in my home, but I care for every dog I visit as if they were my own. I have two dogs I love, so I understand how important routines, safety, and attention are. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit or heading out for a walk, I make sure each pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for.

We had a great experience with Amanda! She did drop-ins for our 10-month-old husky mix, Banjo, and was fantastic. Asked lots of questions and was very thorough, took him out for a potty break, handled feeding, and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for. Received updates and photos! We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

D’Andre was a big help, came through last minute for me to take care of Rex while I was away for a trip. He was very nice to Rex, attentive and even took care of doggy spill Rex had. Super communicative during the visit and I’m glad I hired him and will hire him more in the future.
