Meegan was very easy to work with regarding a home visit. She returned all texts very quickly and was on time for her “meet and greet” visit. Meegan confirmed her visit to walk/feed my two dogs on the day of the appointment and also texted me after the visit to ensure me Buddy and Charlie were ok. And lastly, my dogs were relaxed and happy to see us when we returned home later in the day. She was a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend Meegan for anyone out there looking for someone to help out with their pets. I certainly am going to use her for all my future appointments!

Meghan did an amazing job checking in on our cat while we were away! She was professional, kept our house clean, and most importantly, our cat was happy and comfortable. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pet was in such good hands. Highly recommend!

Emily is sweet and loving. She clearly loves animals and our two pups love her. Emily is dependable and prompt and quickly responds. We are planning to have her back on regular schedule.

About: I am a reliable and caring pet caregiver with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have personal experience with different dog breeds, including a Labrador and currently a German Shepherd mix, which has helped me understand different energy levels, behaviors, and needs. I am comfortable with both small and medium dogs, as well as cats, and I always prioritize safety, patience, and a calm, positive environment. I provide attentive care during walks and drop-in visits, including feeding, playtime, and maintaining daily routines. I understand how important trust and consistency are for pets and their owners, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable, attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting on weekdays and weekends. I always make sure pets receive consistent attention, playtime, and care based on their routine. Pets’ safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and stress-free environment and always follow each pet’s routine and specific needs. I’m attentive to behavior, ensure proper feeding, fresh water, and a secure space. I treat every pet with patience, care, and respect as if they were my own.

I'm very pleased with Tori. She cared for my two dogs for a couple of days. I found her to be very responsible, communicative on-time and loving towards my fir babies. My doggies were in good hands and I highly recommend her services.

About: I bond with pets quickly-they sense my fondness for them and I pay attention to the little things, so I sense what they need to be happy. I am working part-time, so I fortunately get to make my own schedule! I can be flexible with what your specific pet needs are. I always go the extra mile because I enjoy animals so much. We have 2.5 acres of land mostly yard and partially woods with walking trails all over. We have a super friendly and playful 2.5 year old neutered Frenchton named Gus who is 40 pounds and enjoys any and all company! We got our puppy Louie in April 2023. He is an adorable almost 1 year old French Bulldog. Our 2 cats are pretty shy of other humans and pets outside of their family-but they love a good petting and join us on walks! We also have chickens for eggs-but they are outside and safely caged. We spend as much time as possible outside enjoying nature and our pets happily join us!

About: I have taken care of multiple relatives dogs for as long as I can remember. I was responsible for feeding them (whether it was regular dog food or a special concoction), taking them out for walks, giving them pets and taking them to the park. I have mainly taken care of older dogs, but they were big and energetic! I also have grown up with a cats, Guinea pigs, fish and hermit crabs at one point! I’m currently a full time college student, but I have room in my schedule to take care of your animals and give them all the love and play they need! Growing up with animals, I am very receptive on how to take care of them. I have dog sat for multiple people and I have had cats my whole life! I will make sure your pet is comforted and well cared for in your home and I will make sure no harm comes to your animal or house.

We met Rhonda when she came over for a “meet & greet”. We really liked her and feel she is a perfect fit to take care of our little papillon. Unfortunately, our plans are canceled due to a sick grandchild. We definitely plan on booking Rhonda in the future, she is fantastic and Bode loved her and took right to her, it’s obvious she loves and is great with animals.

Wonderful experience - we had to rush out of town twice because of an elderly parent’s health. Samantha was there for us both times even though it was short notice. She saw to our cats needs and even helped out with an issue with unplugging a machine that was left running. Wonderful lady!!!

About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

Sabrina took wonderful care of our Golden and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous at first, but Sabrina immediately put us at ease. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly very caring with our dog. She also sent us updates and pictures, which we really appreciated—it was so nice to see how well our Golden was doing while we were away. Booking through Rover was very easy, and Sabrina made the whole process smooth from start to finish. We were extremely satisfied and would not hesitate to book her again. We highly recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my lifelong love for animals and my extensive experience. Growing up with a dog, I developed a deep understanding of how to care for and connect with pets. Over the past two years, I’ve gained hands-on experience pet sitting for a variety of animals, from playful puppies to senior pets needing extra care. I’m attentive, patient, and skilled at meeting each pet’s unique needs—whether it’s providing companionship, managing feeding schedules, or keeping up with high-energy play sessions. My goal is always to ensure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own! I just graduated college so I am very available r.My availability is pretty free I don’t do much besides the gym and playing with my doggie. At home I have a mutt dog and bird . We have a leash attached into the ground at my house and we have her sleep in the crate.

About: I grew up with pitbulls and have always loved animals. I have experience with all size dog breeds and ages (puppy’s and seniors). I’ve had years of watching dogs and cats as well as some farm work. I am currently a private nanny with a schedule that has lots of mobility. Between my time caring for the family I work for I provide pet care. I have experience spending over nights in others homes, transporting pets and providing necessary medication. I take my time to be gentle and make sure the pets I care for are trusting of me.

About: I’ve taken care of many cats and dogs from when I was a young child. We rescued a few stray cats and dogs who grew to become our beloved family pets. I’m an administrative professional who during the week works 40 hours in the medical industry and would enjoy caring for your pets in their familiar surroundings. This additional line of work helps support my child’s secondary education, and satisfies my love in caring for animals. I look forward to meeting your feline and/or canine family members and care for them at their dwelling. It’s traumatizing enough missing their owners who need to travel, being placed in an unfamiliar location can disrupt their routine and cause unnecessary stress. Thank you for your consideration. I’M ONLY AVAILABLE ON THE WEEKENDS; FRIDAY EVENINGS TO EARLY MONDAY MORNINGS. Due to my primary job, I’m only able to assist on the weekends. I will feed, pet, play, massage, brush, and interact with your pet as if it were my own. Pets deserve quality care for their unconditional love. A few things I adhere to is avoiding all dog parks. Canines may behave differently when their owners are away and I don’t want any pet to get injured. I prefer to stay on the owners property to keep everyone safe.

Stephen is amazing! He’s well-versed with large breeds, and we were so happy to find someone experienced who Bowser absolutely loves walking with. He’s always punctual, and after just two walks, Bowser is already so excited to see him! It’s hard to find someone you can truly trust with your dog, and Stephen is definitely that person. Highly recommend!

Meegan went above and beyond helping me with the cats and even put seed in the feeders for the birds and even looked out for the wild lame turkey that I have been feeding for the past five years. I would recommend her highly to anyone who needs someone to take care of her animals. She's friendly, reliable, and extremely helpful.

After a last minute request, Jessica came for a get-acquainted appointment and eagerly learned about our elderly cat. She was flexible about scheduling and showed up for him reliably. She texted daily and shared beautiful pictures of our little guy so that we'd know he was being well cared for. When we got home, everything was perfectly tidy and our kitty was calm and happy, which gave us plenty of peace of mind for the next stay.
