“Ren was fantastic and took such good care of Pepper. She was so considerate of our recent loss of the loss of Pepper's brother and worked with her on eating more as we had been struggling with that. Such loving and tender care that my girl needed!”


“We’ve used Elizabeth’s services multiple times for drop in visits for my Golden Retriever and recently she also house sat him for a week. Elizabeth is awesome - always punctual, easy to communicate with, very organized, kept us updated about Milo and we even came back to very clean house. I trust her completely with my pet.”


“Wow! So impressed with Madison! Very happy to have her house sit with my big pup! He is 95+#s, and she did so well with him. All the check-in pictures and videos she sent me made me so happy to see my dog happy and hear how great he was doing. I appreciate Madison for taking on a big pup, still walking him and taking care of him during the snow storm we had. I came home, and my house was in great condition still and my dog seemed so calm and happy. Thank you again Madison, I appreciate you!”


“Perfect first experience using rover for a sitter. Anna was excellent and we have two happy pups!!!! Thanks Anna for all the photo pupdates and for being so caring to our babies.”


“Thank you so very much Casandra for taking amazing care of our fur baby while we were on vacation and even staying over longer when we ran into some travel delays. You were amazing as always!”


“We are so grateful to Leigh Ann for caring for our crazy bulldogs for 5 days & nights. Peace of mind while away makes for a more enjoyable vacation. She provides daily pics, follows instructions, is always responsive, leaves the house neat as a pin, and goes above and beyond in providing the attention my dogs crave. We (and the pups) look forward to her next visit.”


“Alandra is the real deal, a pet lover for sure. My cat Fitty is a great discerner of personalities and he took to here immediately. Alandra has a great personality, a great communicator and very empathetic for both the client and the pet (you know, the separation anxiety - lol!). She left my house just as I left it. have absolutely no complaints. Thanks again! I will rebook again.”



“Cindy is amazing! She took such great care of our 5.5 yr old German Shepherd while we were out of town for a week. She gave us daily updates, brought in packages, and asked questions if she needed clarification on any care instructions for our Bella or home. We definitely recommend her and hope she can care for our Bella again in the future.”



“This was my first experience with an in-house dog sitter, and I was initially skeptical about having someone stay at my home for an extended period. However, I was pleasantly surprised by Kathleen's excellent service. She kept me updated on the status of my dogs, and they adored her. Additionally, she maintained the house in great condition. I will definitely hire her again when my husband and I go on a long trip. I highly recommend Kathleen for in-home dog sitting.”


“Gretchen stayed at our home with our two Maltese. When we came home after 5 days they went looking for her which is a good sign they had a good time with her. She updated us daily and left a summary of her stay. I certainly will use Gretchen again when we go out of town I felt so comfortable with her being there.”


About: I grew up with dogs since I was seven years old. I’ve never not had a dog in my house. My first dog was when my grandmother surprised me on Valentine’s Day a little black poodle and I called her Sissy. I had her since I graduated in high school and she passed away. I was devastated because she was my childhood dog. I will never forget her. Now, I have a spunky blue heeler mix named Zendaya who is one years old. I like playing, walking, petting and being next to my dog. Plus, my two sons adore her. I have a hybrid schedule. M, W, F, I work from home. I take a 30 minute to an hour lunch break. I can make sure your pet has enough food and water. On Tues & Thurs, I’m in the office. After work, M-F, I have more time to walk the dog, make sure their water and food bowls are filled. I can play with your dog if he or she needs attention. On the weekends, my schedule varies. My kids have a soccer or football game. My husband and I play ultimate frisbee, go to church, spend time with our family or friends. I always take my dog out in the morning before work. I feed her twice a day. When I work from home, on my lunch breaks, I like to go on walks with my dog. When she needs something, she’ll come to me and give me a look or bark at me and I let her outside in my back yard. When I’m in the office twice a week, I let my dog out and keep her in her crate until my husband gets home from work. If he’s gone all day and not back earlier in the day, my mother-in-law will stop by to let her out. We don’t have a dog door, but I keep the back door open if the weather is nice. My family and I like to go to the dog park and let our dog play with other dogs or we take her on hikes.

“This was my first time using Rover. In the past I have depended on family to come look after my cat, but Jessica was able to step in and pet sit for two nights. Jessica is reliable, attentive, and respectful. I would not hesitate to have her pet sit again, and look forward to my kitty having a new friend.”


About: I have had experience taking care of animals for over 14 years! I own two dogs and have previously owned my sweet senior dog for 14 years. I love each and every animal like they were my own. I work from home and am able to take lunch when needed. I also am free on the weekends to take care of your animals! I’m familiar with crate training and dogs that are crate trained as well as dogs that aren’t. I will be able to make your dog as comfortable as possible.

About: I grew up in an animal loving home! you name it, i’ve probably cared for it! I would love to get to know your pet and meet all of its unique needs / wants! I work weekends and occasionally a shift or two during the week, I am off at 3pm. (please make sure your pets can be left alone for 6 hours while i am working!!) I am a college student with two classes per week so I am able to prioritize your furry friends. I have a family dog and a cat of my own! I am home the most and I am constantly giving them my attention, keeping water bowls cleaned + filled, and keeping their space clean. I pride myself in my attention to detail. I’m great at cleaning up any sort of mess and keeping your animals content while you’re away. I’m active and would love to take dogs on walks / play outside!

I will be using her services in the future.”

Advika watched our dog Harley, for 2 weeks at our home, while we were gone on vacation- house was left clean and tidy. She sent regular communications and photos which were appreciated - it was obvious that Harley had been well taken care of - she was given her medicine on time - I highly recommend Advika and will use her again

She is outstanding and exceptional caretaker. She is not only an exceptional caretaker but knowledgeable, reliable, efficient and devoted. She is available to work around my schedule and demonstrate enormous love and compassion for my fur babies. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and knowledgeable person to care for their pet. Her rates are very reasonable, and provides exceptional service. Thank you, Linda, for taking good care of my fur babies ❤️
