“Paige is amazing. Not only do my two cats love her, but she went above and beyond in caring for the cats (even washing out the containers we left the wet food in). I highly recommend her services.”


“This was the first time using Rover. Kara was wonderful and i appreciated that she stopped by to meet Lucy before beginning her drop in visits.”


“Jeremy was amazing! Really good with our large dog and great at communicating and putting us at ease. We'll hope to use him again next time help is needed!”


“Peyton is amazing and went above and beyond for us while we were away for our first family vacation!! She was on point with communication when we or she had a question regarding the dogs, plus she did cleaning outside when we didn't ask her to. With the 6 dogs she had to watch, 5 out of 6 dogs (5 are my MIL dogs) loved her, except 1 of our dogs, Misty, was very stubborn and guarded she was giving us a play by play on how she kept on barking and 24hrs later Misty warmed up and earned Peyton's respect. We would love to have her again in the near future!! :)”


“Lori is AMAZING!! She was so patient with my "special/difficult" dog and really went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable and that I was comfortable leaving for the week! I would highly recommend Lori to anyone looking to have their fur baby cared for!”


“Taylor is awesome! Couple days before I traveled, she came to my house to meet me and my cat Zorro and we were talking for couple of hours. She is such a sweetheart During the week Taylor was checking on Zorro, she spoiled him just like I would, with lots of love, treats, cuddles and walks. I am so happy my baby was comfortable with Taylor. I can't recommend her enough and will definitely use her services again.”


About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.

“Hillary was so great and reliable stopping in to watch our dog Mack for a long weekend! She came each day at our agreed upon times and took amazing care of our dog. She always sent the best report cards and updates and really gave us peace of mind while we were away! We have already booked her again for our next trip!”


About: I've been taking care of my pets personally for close to 20 years. I pet sit for multiple friends while they are out of town or when they work off schedules like midnights. I work from home and do a lot of meetings. With notice, my schedule can be flexible and help a lot of different pet care needs. Safety and trust: I frequently work with children through the local PTA and I teach children how to play board games at a yearly gaming convention. Through this work, I have to pass regular background checks.

“Bridgette was absolutely amazing & accommodating for my crazy schedule/situation. She did a great job with my pet in terms of walking, feeding, and giving consistent updates - I will definitely book her again!!”


“Christina did a fantastic job with Izzy,! I loved the photos she sent me! She is truly an animal lover and she went m over and above what she needed to do. I will have her back again.”


About: I’ve always had a calm, patient way with dogs; even in high-stress situations from my time as a first responder. I’ve cared for senior dogs, given meds, and helped pups with special needs. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. As a veteran and homeschooling mom, my days are flexible and full of love. Caring for your pets fits right in. I’m available most days at any time and can easily adjust to your dog’s schedule, whether they need a walk, a potty break, or some extra affection. Your pet will feel like part of the family with me! I provide a pet-friendly environment in a great neighborhood just minutes from Mill Creek Park (3 min) and the dog park (10 min). Whether I’m in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and cared for like family. I follow any instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and always give each pup the patience and love they deserve.

About: I don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t taking care of animals! Whether it be while growing up or starting to dogsit/walk in high school, there was never a time a fur baby wasn’t relying on me. And I wouldn’t have it any other way! I have a flexible schedule which allows me to help out with my friends and families animals, as well as volunteer for local animal shelters. I have experience with dogs of all ages and levels of care. I know how difficult it can be to trust someone with your pet (I have used Rover myself when I go out of town) so I assure you I will provide the kind of care and attention to your pet that I would want given to my own! :) I’m currently working part time. My job offers flexible hours, so I have the opportunity to accommodate whatever schedule you and your pet require. :) I will happily go over what your pets routine is and abide by whatever you’re most comfortable with! If your dog is used to being walked at certain times, crated, etc. The well being and safety of your animal is my upmost concern so whatever you need me to do to guarantee that, is what I’ll do!

About: I’ve taken care of animals and have grown up around them most of my life. If it be for family and friends, my own pets, or house sitting. I enjoy spending time with all pets, walking them, and being around them! I think pets are family and deserved to be treated and loved no different than others! Pet care fits into my daily life/ routine easily. I have a flexible schedule and don’t mind last minute changes if needed with notice. I understand life happens! Life's can be unpredictable and require adaptations! I care for pets in your home just as if you were home doing it yourself. The pets routine will be followed and can even send updates while visiting! You know your pet best and how they are!

“Sarah took excellent care of my cats while I was on vacation! She played with them, feed them, and scooped the litter. I will definitely be keeping her in mind whenever I am going out of town again. Highly recommend Sarah to watch your pet(s)!”


“Cara was on time and provided just what KC needed❤️”


“Hollis was very quick to respond and good natured. I feel safe knowing she’s punctual and experienced with my pups! My pups LOVE HER. Even on the first meeting they just loved spending time with her. She takes fun photos and really gets to know the dog!”


“Haley has been fantastic dropping in on my dog Cheddar for the last 2 consecutive months! She has been dropping in on cheddar for the last two years on and off when I need someone and will always rebook her! she shows up on time, is respectable of my home, and sends lots of pics and videos during the visit.”


About: I grew up taking care of cats and most recently a puppy who is now a young adult who can follow a list of basic commands. I love spending time with dogs and walking with them. I would love the opportunity to meet and take care of your dog as if they were my own! I am currently available every day during business hours, some weekends and evenings in advance! I am available to walk anytime past 9am and sit/drop in anytime past 9 am also! Trust and safety are my number 1-2 factors when it comes to being around animals of any kind. For my own fur babies, at my last place, we had a fenced in yard so i would always take my dog outside and never lose sight of her, even tho she is 80+ lbs! When/if i am watching your pets, safety will be my 1 priority and to make sure your pet is comfortable and feeling safe at all times

“Elizabeth has communicated promptly to messages! When we come home and find our 4 westies happy and non-stressed we know they got a good loving drop in visit. Thank you Elizabeth! We will see you again! Xoxo”
