“Mikayla was absolutely amazing with our fur babies! She kept our high energy dog well played with, and was great understanding our grumpy cat. She was active with the pets and sent us great videos and pictures. She communicated with us immediately and left our house better than when she came. We greatly appreciated her and would rebook her in the future.”

About: I've taken care of puppies to the elderly dogs. Treat them as though we are a pack or family. Have had to take care of a high anxiety dog that required meds and territorial dogs. Coexistence is key. This is my full time job so I take your pets care seriously. I learn their cues to when need food, water, and outside time. I require detailed instructions written out so as to best take care of your fur baby. I like to get to know them to provide the best care I can.

“Enjoyed meeting Jillian for our meet and greet. She has a good chemistry with our dogs. We have two "Bullys" and a geriatric Brittany. She did well with them all. Our bullies can be rough players at times, but Jillian didn't shy away from this. They love cuddles but need a confident handler. She seems to do well with both roles. We were comfortable with our first experience and have already booked her again. We liked the secure feeling of having a trustworthy person watching our 4 legged kids. Would recommend her.”

“Did an absolutely awesome job watching my sweet boy. Very communicative and did everything to ensure Moe’s routine was as normal as possible while I was gone. Will definitely rebook!”

“Alivia has watched our animals when we have gone out of town the last couple of years. She is always very helpful and communicates any issues she has. The animals all love her! We will definately use her in the future. Thanks Alivia!”

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have owned several dogs with very different personalities and needs. From energetic Australian Shepherds who thrive on activity and mental stimulation to my calm and gentle Golden Retriever, I’ve gained valuable experience understanding how to care for dogs of all temperaments. I enjoy staying active and love spending time outdoors, whether that’s going for long walks, runs, or playing fetch at the park. At the same time, I understand that every dog is different, and I’m just as happy to spend quiet time relaxing, cuddling, and providing companionship for pets who prefer a slower pace. I take pride in being responsible, dependable, and respectful of both pets and their owners. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to meet your pet and provide them with the care, attention, and affection they deserve! 🐾❤️ I currently have a work schedule that is all over the place, I am free anytime after 3:30pm Monday-Thursday. I have horseback riding on Friday and on weekends. I’d love to fit your pets needs into my schedule! When caring for pets in their own homes, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise requirements, and any household rules. I understand that pets can feel more comfortable in their familiar environment, so I focus on providing plenty of attention, companionship, and reassurance while their owners are away. I also treat every home with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. During walks, your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I pay close attention to their energy level, behavior, and surroundings to ensure they have an enjoyable experience. Whether your dog prefers a brisk walk, a run, or a slower-paced stroll with lots of sniffing opportunities, I adapt to their individual needs. I always use safe handling practices, stay alert to potential hazards, and make sure your pet gets the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. My goal is for every pet to return home happy, healthy, and tired from a fun outing!

“We couldn’t have been more pleased with our experience with Natalie. It was our first time booking through Rover so we were a little nervous, but Natalie’s strong consistent communication and clear experience dog/housesitting put us at ease. The daily pictures and updates gave us piece of mind on our trip away, and we came home to a clean house and a very happy puppy!”

“It was great having Skyler watch our dog! He was very well cared for and looks like he got lot of love. Skyler spent a lot of time with our pup which was a plus as well. They left our house clean and followed all the instructions we left for our dog. We got updates with pictures while we were away as well. We would absolutely recommend Skyler and would love to rebook with them next time we need someone to house sit.”
