“Cindy is an absolute gem! Clearly read instructions before stopping by for first meet and greet! The communication and pictures before, during and after the daily visits gave me such peace of mind, and allowed me to enjoy my time away! My cat and I truly appreciated Cindy’s attention to detail and clear love for our furry friends!”

“Michelle is absolutely wonderful and made us feel comfortable right from the start. She was very interactive and kind with our dog. Very reliable, trustworthy, and a great communicator. She really took the time and extra care with our dog. I really appreciated how attentive she was and that she took the time to encourage play with my senior dog. Would highly recommend her.”

“Jill was so great! She was able to check on my pups when I had a last minute cancelation with another sitter (not a rover). She was so kind and even took the time to meet the boys before. During her visit she was very observent and took great care of my boys! Will be booking her again in the future!”

“Kelly was amazing with my two cats and took wonderful care of them while I was gone for over a week! She sent regular photos and updates and I felt so happy seeing my babies so well care for.

This attentiveness brings peace of mind to pet owners and happiness to the animals, making pet sitting not just a task, but a fulfilling and trusted part of my week.

About: I’m new to Rover but not new to caring for dogs. I’m a proud parent of four adult kids and a longtime dog lover with years of experience supporting dogs through every stage of life. Now that my kids are grown and out on their own, I finally have the time to focus on something I’ve always loved: spending time with dogs and helping other pet owners. We adopted my current Labrador when he was about a year and a half old. He’s now 13 and still has a spark even with hip issues and daily medication. I raised him while raising my four kids, so he’s truly been part of the family journey. Before him, I raised another black Lab from eight weeks old until he passed at 12. He was diagnosed with IBS early on, so I managed a strict diet and paid close attention to his daily needs. Between both dogs I’ve experienced all phases of a dog’s life from puppyhood to senior years and have learned how to adapt care at every stage. I also regularly watch dogs for family and friends, so I understand how important it is to build trust and provide consistent, loving care for someone else’s pet. I’m offering drop in visits and walks because I know how important it is for dogs to feel safe and loved in their own space. Whether your dog needs a potty break, a meal, some playtime, or just a little company, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own. I am available weekdays, I’m free after 3 PM, and I have open availability on weekends to fit your pet’s needs. I genuinely love spending time with pets, giving them regular walks and drop ins to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I like to meet ahead of time for a quick meet and greet to make sure we’re a good match and your dog feels comfortable with me from the start. I offer drop in and walk visits, so all care takes place in your home where your dog feels most relaxed. I follow your instructions closely, whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or just keeping them company, to keep their routine consistent and stress free. I always make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and well cared for, and I leave everything clean and just as I found it. Communication is important, and I’m happy to send messages and photos during visits, just let me know your preference!

“Irene always does a great job taking care of my old girl. She's reliable, communicates well, and my dog, Sammie, loves her. I highly recommend trusting Irene with your fur babies!”

“Shelbi was wonderful with my cat, and took pictures and videos of him every day to send to me while I was out of town. I had total peace of mind while away that my furbaby was taken care of and loved. Shelbi went above and beyond the expected, checking in on my cat an extra time during the day when he seemed “off” from his normal self. She also tackled his litter box, and took the trash out. I’m very grateful for her services and would hire her again in the future. I found her very trustworthy and reliable.”

“I always get a few pictures and an update from Heather. She genuinely cares about my cats!”
