“Tess did an amazing job sitting for our pups. Punctual, very communicative, and most importantly our dogs were tuckered out at the end of the day. Will definitely hire again, A++ reliable sitter!”
“Zeel was great! She played with my cats, cleaned up their messes, communicated with me each day while we were away, and sent photos! I would absolutely book with her again in the future!”
“Jennifer was awesome checking in on my 2 cats while I was away at a conference. We texted and also spoke via phone about each cat’s need, how they may respond with a new person, and my expectations. She spent the time of the short check in to ensure they were fed, watered, and did play time with them. She also kept me apprised the entire time. I plan to use her in the future and highly recommend her!”

About: Animals have been a crucial part of my life and family from birth! My fur babies mean the world to me and I know yours do to you as well! That is why I will strive to provide the same high quality, loving care that I would expect for my own pets. Over the years, I have owned dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, rats, tortoises, lizards, and snakes. I currently have 2 loving dogs named Thelma and Louise and a cat named Izzy. I have 10 years of experience as a veterinary technician in both general practice and emergency medicine. Although it has been awhile since I worked in the field (I am now a high school teacher), I am still confident in providing both oral and subcutaneous (injectable) medications and any other basic medical care. I also have several years of house sitting services and have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, as well as horses (former pony club member), goats, and pigs. It would be my pleasure to give your pets all the love while you are away, while also taking care of things like watering plants, getting mail, etc. I am currently a full time teacher, but am available for pop in visits or walks after school during the week (I can be to most of my service area by 3:30 pm) and can do pop ins or walks throughout the day on weekends. I am also available for overnights on weekends. My availability will open up for the summer, so hit me up for loving pet care so you can enjoy those summer vacations! My pets are family in my home, and I will treat them the same in yours! Whatever your typical routines and practices are, I will do everything in my power to uphold so that your pet is able to keep as much consistency in your absence as possible. I walk my dogs most afternoons and am happy to provide walks for yours as well!

“Disha was GREAT!!! She was very friendly and you could tell she genuinely cared for Jorge. She sent lots of photos and videos to assure me she was taking great care of him. She also goes above and beyond, so I would highly recommend Disha.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs and hamsters. I grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes, spanning from a bully mix, to an Alaskan malamute, to black labs, and Chihuahuas too! Getting to know each animal individually, and getting to know their quirks and personalities is the best part! I currently work eight hours a day seven days a week. I can be there to pet sit in the evenings or let dogs out on potty breaks in the early morning or sometime past 5:30 PM. I can spend up to three hours with your pup for drop ins, and of course I would give all of my attention for the 8+ hours I would be there to pet sit. I follow any and all instructions given to me by pet owners. I’ve spent a long time getting to know, body language, and social cues from dogs. I will never push their boundaries.
“Erin did a wonderful job taking care of our cat, Mia! Erin is very sweet and Mia liked her a lot (which says something!) Would definitely recommend Erin for anyone needing pet sitting.”
Shannondale cat parents share their Rover experiences
Zeel was great! We were gone for an 8 day cruise and she sent pictures, videos, and stayed in contact with me the whole time. We paid for 30 min visits and she ended up staying much past that several times! When first meeting Zeel, she made us feel much more calm about leaving our “kids” for so long. She is truly passionate about their well-being and care, she always provided love and fun! Thanks Zeel!!!
Nicholas cared for our two cats while we were out of town for 2 weeks. He stopped in 3 tines per week and spent time with them, made sure that they had food and water as well as a clean litter box. I was delighted to get pictures of one of the cats (the other was surely hiding) from most visits. Nicholas even took out the trash bag will of dirty litter bags for trash pick up so that my garage didn't stink like dirty cat litter. He was always quick to respond which was great as I have never had to have anyone other than family care for my pets so this eased my nerves. It was a pleasure to work with Nicholas and I would use him again in the future as well as recommend him to others!
