“Melissa was super responsive and sent photos like promised! Definitely appreciated her actually playing with my pups and giving them attention. 100% would recommend and will use again.”


“Erica was wonderful! She came over a week ahead of our trip to get to know the pets and to see our home. She asked great questions and was super responsive. Unfortunately, she had to cut her stay short due to a personal emergency but throughout it all, she was extremely communicative and assured me that our pets wouldn't be left stranded while we worked with Rover to get a new sitter. She had even kicked off the convo with Rover to get that sorted out!”


“Lucy is amazing! She house sat our pups for 5 days and provided us daily updates and pics. It was her first extended stay and most certainly not the last. Thank you Lucy for taking such care of our babies and showing them so much love!”


“Everything went very smoothly! Jamie and Patrick are open to communication and always available when we checked in. Dogs got all the medications and walks. House was left in great condition! We will be booking them again in the future!”


“Rachel was amazing with my little dog and house. She sent updates, photos, and Lizzy appeared very comfortable with her. I would definitely work with Rachel again.”


“Tracy was immaculate. We contacted her last minute because our usual sitters are no longer available. She was so quick to respond and fit all our standards for great care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we went to a trip for 6 days. She gave daily updates with extensive details so that I wouldn't miss out on anything going on. Her passion for dogs shines and we cannot thank her enough for the love she provided while we were away. I highly recommend Tracy!”


“We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Christine!!!! She is so sweet and wonderful. She first came by for a meet and greet making friends with us and spooky ensuring a positive visit for everyone.

“Abigail is the best! We’ve had her stay at our house with our dogs a few times now. She’s always quick to respond, asks the right questions, is a courteous house guest, and most importantly gets along splendidly with our dogs! We highly recommend Abigail.”


“Samantha was nice and took the time to meet with us twice before our trip to make sure our three dogs were comfortable with her. Everything went well, she was a good communicator and sent some pictures of our fur babies during her stay. I would definitely book with her again.”


About: I have always been called to help out family and friends with their dogs! I myself had three dogs to care for since I was about 12, I had to do extensive research to get them and was fully responsible for them their whole lives! I go to school and work but I am more than happy to check on your pet when I have breaks and I am available to stay at the house any day of the week! My parents primarily care for my 1 dog at home since I am away most of the year. When we had 3 dogs, I was the primary care giver- I am familiar with feeding, walks, signals of discomfort, and realize when dogs just need some extra attention. I am also willing to do research on every breed I will care for so I am more knowledgable about it.

“Elizabeth did great with Scout! I was hesitant about leaving him with a stranger because he's an elderly dog and can be a bit finicky, but she took great care of him and there were no issues. We returned home to a very happy dog!”


“Savanah cared for our border collie mix for an extended stay as a house sitter while we traveled. Our experience with her as his caregiver was very positive. She made a point of coming to meet us twice in preparation for the long stay, studied and implemented the detailed instructions of his habits and care that we provided, sent us daily brief updates and photos of his activities, and left the house in very good condition. Savanah is a calm and pleasant young woman who appears to be honest, reliable and diligent. She initially had to administer medication to our dog for a persistent cough, and he was well when we returned. We highly recommend her for the care of your beloved pets. We would definitely employ her again for our dog’s care.”


“Martina jumped in literally in the hours before I was leaving as my other sitter cancelled very last minute. Martina was attentive to all the needs of my very elderly cat, gave him his meds, cared for him as if her own. She left my house in really good condition and tidy/clean after an 11-day stay!”


“I had an excellent experience with Connor as my dog sitter! He came to my RV on short notice after my original sitter canceled last minute. Not only did he feed and give water to my dog just as I asked, but he also went above and beyond by spending extra time playing fetch with her. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Reliable, kind, and clearly great with animals—highly recommend!”


About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and have a dog named Scrappy who inspired my passion for pet care. Through him, I’ve learned how to connect with dogs of all temperaments and understand their body language, needs, and routines. I have experience with basic puppy training (crate, potty, leash walking) as well as caring for senior dogs who need patience, gentle movement, and medication. I offer calm, one-on-one attention in a cozy environment that feels like home. Every dog I care for gets the same love and respect I give Scrappy. I just graduated high school, so I have lots of free time and a very flexible schedule! I work a part-time job with plenty of availability during the day, evenings, and weekends. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I love spending time with animals, whether it’s morning walks, playtime breaks, or cozy evenings in. I’m reliable, responsive, and able to adjust to your dog’s needs and schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly space where dogs can feel safe and relaxed—no overcrowding, no chaos, just lots of love and attention. I’m careful with introductions, keep doors secure, and always supervise playtime. If I’m in your home, I follow your routines closely and treat your space with the same respect I give my own. I pay attention to details, give regular updates, and make sure your pup feels happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have five cats and a lizard at the moment. We have also had many dogs boarding with us in our home for the last three years. I will be starting college in the fall and need some part time flexible work to meet college expenses. With college classes I will have the flexibility to take great care of people's furry friends. I will exclusively visit pets in their own homes. I have a flexible schedule due to college classes. I am also available for house sitting.

“I highly recommend Brianna A. as a pet caregiver. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and genuinely loving toward animals. Weather it's feeding, walking, or just spending quality time, Brianna treats every pet like their own-with patience, care, and compassion. She loves her own pet Scrappy, we have had our Scrappy since he was 3 months old and he is now 8 years old. He is well taken care of and very loved by Brianna and all of us. You can trust her to provide a safe and nurturing environment for any furry friend.”


David H.
“David has been helping out with pets since I’ve had them coming into our home three years ago. We have also had our own pets for 11 years, and had other family member pets he’s helped with. Pets love him. He is in tune with them in a way I’ve seldom seen. He understands them and quickly becomes their favorite person. He’s conscientious and will care for your pet exactly as you would like. You can’t go wrong with this pet sitter.”

Fantastic sitter!! Im almost reluctant to write a review because I dont want anyone else to know how good she is with my pet! She was very caring and gentle with my cat and took care of my house as if it were her own. She’s great with giving meds and let my cat ease into all the introductions. Will use her again and again!

Hailey took great care of the house and the dogs during our trip. She was communicative and sent pics and videos now and then to show us how they were doing. We felt confident leaving everything in her hands and would certainly book her again. Thank you Hailey!
