4. Michelle L.

“Michelle was awesome!! She was prompt in her response for the job, answered all questions and came out to meet me ahead of the sitting. I received daily messages and photos of her stay with my pet and updates on his diet. My cat is picky and very talkative but Michelle handled it all in stride! She took excellent care of my home and my precious fur baby. Would definitely welcome her back and recommend her services highly!”

I have experience dog walking and sitting and will make sure your furry friends are taken care of like they are my own! I am currently very flexible with wide availability on weekdays and weekends at many different times. I make servicing your pups and kitties a priority!!!

“Alanna worked with my 2 pit bulls for 1 months on pulling when I walk them. By the time she was finished working with them, my pits were able to walk OFF leash. She is my GO TO and only babysitter for my fur babies. I recommend her to anyone looking for a babysitter. She LOVES dogs and is extremely good with them.”

13. Katherine R.

“Katherine was extremely pleasant to interact with. She responds quickly and is very positive. This was our first time doing a weekend away and Katherine helped us feel okay. We learned some lessons about being very prescriptive about expectations. We were very pleased to come home to happy, healthy dogs and a clean house.”


14. Haley C.

“Haley was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!! She constantly kept me in the loop about my doggies and sent me a ton of pictures. I can’t thank her enough, cause this is the first time I’ve used rover as an actual client, as I’m a sitter on rover myself, so I’m usually on the sitter side.”

So I also have a trained dog that cares for dogs with me to so the other dogs see the example of my skills through my dog Murphy. I'm a fun loving women who loves dogs making sure their cared have fun doing it. I make sure they are on a regular routine by what the owner saids. I have a dog of my own and know when its time to eat , play and use the bathroom and show love I make sure I provide what they need. I follow what the owner gives me information about them. Let them play and enjoy themselves so they will feel comfortable


17. Jada B.
“Jada is an exceptional pet caregiver. She has 2 sweet cats of her own, and she always goes above and beyond to make sure they’re okay. Her home is always clean and safe for her pets and the other pets she takes care of. She was able to watch my puppy while I went away for vacation and I completely trusted that my fur baby was okay.”


18. Connor M.
“Connor has been watching my cats for 2+ years and I have nothing but positive things to say about the care she gives my girls. Her genuine love for animals shows through her actions with my babies. She always sends me pictures, makes sure she keeps me updated throughout our time away, and genuinely enjoys spending quality time with them. I fully trust her to watch my kitties and it’s an extra bonus that she’s willing to stay at our house with our girls. I can’t recommend her enough if you want to know your fur babies are taken care of while you are away!”




19. Sadie O.

About: Hi, my name is Sadie Outhouse! We have one dog (Sosa) he has been with us since he was 6 weeks old and is up to date on his shots. He is not nurtured, so unfortunately we are not able to accept females in heat. Sosa gets along with most animals. We also have a pet tortoise that hangs out with us:) I do not have any certification but will ensure that your pet is in safe hands. I would love to hear from you! Feel free contact me to schedule a meet and greet to see if we are a good match to you anytime! I work remote so I am home all day. Our dog gets walked 3 times a day. So have separate rooms that are not used through the day. We have a large living room with plenty of space for a crate indoors. Chainlink fence runs along to back yard. Not a full enclosed fence.


20. Kaia M.
“Kaia was raised in a home with many cats and dogs, as her mom has been involved in rescue. She had been coming to adoption events since she was 12 or 13. Her mom has always depended on Kaia for help with her fosters. She loves cats and dogs, it's just in her dna! I would absolutely trust my fur babies to her care. She will give Rover the best of her knowledge, kindness and compassion.”
