“Hanan took great care of Oreo while we were gone and she is the first overnight stay Rover that actually listens to us and takes advantage of the stay and treats it like a staycation which we encourage. We came home to a happy kitty!”

“Lukis does a great job with my cat’s quirky needs and gives the most fun, frequent updates throughout the stay that show she is being cared for on a thoughtful and personal level <3 will continue booking in the future!”

“Theresa and Adrian did a great job watching Laika. They communicated expectations clearly ahead of time and sent updates throughout the stay. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was well taken care of.”

“Angelica did an excellent job caring for my dog. She took the time to meet him twice before I left, to ensure it would be a good fit. During the sit she communicated consistently with texts, photos, and videos. I will definitely be booking her again!”

“Lauren took fantastic care of our young dog! She was gentle and patient with him, since he can be a little nervous with new people. She was attentive and communicative throughout the stay, and shared lots of pictures and videos.”

“Maciyah was so great with my dogs and they were instantly comfortable with her during our meet and greet. I also hot tons of pictures during her stay and came home to a super happy dog, I highly recommend!”

“Randi took great care of Ruxin. She took the time to do a meet and greet before my trip. I love all the pictures she takes so I could rest easy knowing Ruxin was well taken care of.”

“Kristina was wonderful ! Very responsible and so loving towards My pooch Marley ! He loves her from day one ! I’d highly recommend her ! My dog is not an easy personality and he was happy as can be upon my return ! 5 stars”

“Caitie has been wonderful! Caitie was very attentive to our dog, Marnie, and was really sensitive to all of her behavior quirks. We received regular photo/ video/ message updates, and everything went very smoothly. Thank you!”

“Breanna did such an amazing job with my 3 large dogs. Our dogs aren’t the easiest and only like to stay in an environment they know, so she watched them at our house, which we greatly appreciated. Breanna kept us updated through out the whole stay with constant pics and videos. Our one dog had an upset stomach while she was there due to her food and Breanna took care of her and also cleaned up after her. Breanna even took our dogs on walks together which I was very impressed by bc walking just one can be a lot. Grateful and pleased is an understatement. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our fur babies were in the best hands. Bonus she even cleaned our house which wasn’t expected. We are having Breanna watch our dogs for another trip we have planned later this month and for any other dog sitting needs. She is the best and can’t recommend enough!”

“Karley is awesome! She watched our senior pup for a few nights in our home. We really appreciated the photo updates and very clear communication. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to Karley again whenever we need a sitter!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, rabbits, geckos, and rats. I have most experience dog walking and sitting but am comfortable with all pets! I have walked an taken care of friends, family and neighbors dogs for most of my life. I am a bartender and have Sundays and Monday off and some Saturdays. I work the day shift so I’m never home later than 10 pm. I live in an apartment in a neighborhood that is very walkable. Although I don’t have a yard, frequent walks are a priority. I live alone with no pets that will interfere with your pets day to day.
“Zaria was such a gift! She went above and beyond caring for our three cats—two of whom are on medication—with so much love and attentiveness. The house was spotless when we got home, and the cats were relaxed, happy, and somehow getting along even better than before we left. She’s kind, reliable, and just a joy to work with. We honestly can’t recommend her enough!”

“Kayla was an outstanding house sitter while I was out of town. She took great care of my animals and sent regular pictures and updates to keep me informed. She left my space clean and organized and I couldn’t even tell anyone else was there when I got home! Book with Kayla with confidence she will take great care of your pets and is incredibly respectful of your space.”


About: I worked an animal shelter for about a year and half. I learned a lot from that experience, such as dog and cats diets, their body language, and how to administer medications if needed. I have also owned dogs most of my life and believe them to be such loyal companions. I am currently free most of the mornings as well as afternoons. I am mostly flexible as long as I’m told with enough time to make sure I have all the time your pets need! My pets at home are very spoiled, so I plan to do the same for your pets. I have a park nearby my house as well as I am not far from Belle Isle. So if your dog loves walking, I will make sure they get all the enrichment they need. If your pets were ever to stay at my house my dogs and cats are dog friendly. I am also more than willing to take care of your pets in your home if that’s what makes them most comfortable. I am all about making sure your pet feels safe and happy in whichever environment suits them best!
“Second booking with Destiny and she is just so amazingly wonderful, my dog takes a while to warm up to people and he already sees her like family. Thank you again.”


About: I grew up taking every opportunity I could to care for and spend time with my neighbors' dogs and had a family dog for 6 years. I have experience with administering oral and topical medications, as well as with treating minor wounds and infections. I also volunteer regularly at the Humane Society which has given me extra experience with dogs with trauma or disabilities, and senior or unsocialized dogs. I'm currently only working in-person during the evenings Monday-Thursday. Other than that I'm mostly working from home and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I unfortunately don't have a yard or lots of room in my apartment but I live only a short walk from a dog park, which I'd be able to visit regularly. I mostly work from home so I'm able to give frequent walks and snuggles!
“Lindsey house sat and took care of our 3 very active pitbulls, 3 cats and even some of our reptiles. Communication was constant, pictures of all our pets three times a day, everyday, adressed any concerns promptly. Lindsey is thorough, polite and responsive. Our dogs had the time of thier life while she stayed with them. We have a difficult dog, she did great with Lindsey as she was patient and kind. Our cat who goes days under the bed came out to see her, we were stunned. We never worried about a thing and could enjoy our time away. Our house was pristine when we came back home. If you need a sitter, Lindsey is our recommendation. We are so pleased.”

Sylvie was amazing with our 3 animals! She even did a meet-and-greet before we left on our trip so that the animals could get to know her and make sure it went okay. Sylvie took great care of our babies, the house, and we had zero worries while we were away cause we knew they were in good hands. Would highly recommend Sylvie to care for your critters and we will definitely book with her again!

Lukis took amazing care of my dog, Chance. She quickly learned how much of an interesting character he is. His high energy didn’t scare her and she embraced his weird. She was great with communication, sent tons of pics and obviously spent a lot of quality time with him. I would book her again in a heartbeat.

Theresa and Adrian B. were absolutely phenomenal. They stepped in on very short notice to watch our dogs and went above and beyond to make sure they felt safe, comfortable, and loved the entire time. What impressed me most was that they stayed with them throughout the day, kept them engaged, and made sure they had plenty of fun. We have two dogs and even a cat, and they handled everything with ease—even during a storm! Their communication, care, and dedication gave us complete peace of mind. I would recommend Theresa and Adrian to anyone looking for trustworthy, reliable, and compassionate pet sitters. 10/10, would absolutely book with them again!

Angelica was wonderful and we’d happily work with her again and recommend to others! She was communicative, came a day before our trip to meet the dogs and learn their routine. She wasn’t phased by our pup with glaucoma who requires 4 different eye drops multiple times a day or our other pup who is very high energy. She even sent photo updates which we loved! We really lucked out working with her last minute when our other plans fell through and hope to work with her again! Five stars!

Jessica did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats. I was worried about my male cat taking his medication from someone else because he is so skittish of new people. Jessica got him comfortable right away so he did not miss a dose. She followed instructions for their care very well and was very communicative with us. She also sent lots of picture updates, which we appreciated so much! We would 100% hire her again.

Thank you Katherine! I felt totally confident leaving my babies in her care! She was great at communicating, letting me know how they were doing and sending pictures. Highly recommend and I will definitely be contacting her again next time I have a trip planned.

Olivia was great! One of my pets is extremely anxious but she still took care of him and he seemed to warm up to her. We had sick pets and she took care of them. I was a little worried bc as much as I love my pets, I know they are not easy to take care of so the fact that Olivia and my babies got along tells me how great she is.
