“Trisha was EXTREMELY helpful and communicative - I could tell that she cared for our pups as much as we did. We would HAPPILY book her again and plan to. This was our first time using Rover.com and hopes that everyone has the experience that we had with Trisha. Thanks again Trisha! Remington and Willow say thanks too!”

“Super easy and relaxed house-sitter experience. Christy was responsive, present, and an engaged house-sitter. House was pleasantly clean when we arrived and most importantly animals seemed happy and healthy.”

“We cannot recommend Edna highly enough! She recently watched our two mini dachshunds, Tux and Moo, and exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we met her, we could tell how kind and caring she is, and she made us feel completely at ease leaving our dogs in her care. Edna kept our home spotless while we were away, and she consistently checked in with us to provide updates. She even sent us the sweetest pictures of Tux and Moo, which made us feel so connected and reassured. It was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well-loved under her care. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond for your pets and treat them like family, Edna is the person for you. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter!”


About: I grew up with dogs & cats my whole life. I dog and cat sit for a relative of mine which kind of inspired me to start this. Hey there! I'm Michael I work evenings at AT&T, so my mornings and select days off are completely free – which means I have reliable, consistent time to care for your pup or cat. A little about me so I'm no stranger to hard work, staying on my feet, or handling messy situations calmly. I'm punctual, pay close attention to details, and I'll treat your pet like my own.
“Blair did a great job caring for our dogs while we were away for the weekend. She even went out of her way to shampoo our carpet after our dogs had an accident. Our dogs were happy and healthy when we got back home.”
“Emily did an incredible job with my kitty! She was super responsive, sent a ton of cute pics and left my house spotless. She took amazing care of my girl, I will happily rebook her!”


“Rebecca was amazing! My dogs liked her the minute she came in the door! It was so reassuring to know Rebecca was caring for our babies while we were away. She also took excellent care of our home. We definitely recommend her for drop in visits or - as in our case - full time care in our home. We like to travel, and will definitely be calling Rebecca for our next trips!! Thank you very much, Rebecca! P.S. Avalon and Sierra miss you! ??”
“Casey was an absolute lifesaver! I decided to book because she had great reviews and I was not wrong!! She reorganized her schedule to stay with my brand new lab puppy (10 weeks) for a full 5 days. My apartment was spotless and my boy was so so happy!! He even needed medication which she diligently gave him and I came back to a happier and healthier than ever pup! She was fantastic, and I would recommend her to anyone!!”


“Rachel was great! She knows the trials of having a border collie puppy :) She took extra special care of our Orion. Sent extra cute pics throughout the day, walks an playtime. Sweet girl too.”

“Mya did a great job with our 2 dogs while we were out of town. She made sure they got outside a lot and received plenty of attention. She also took good care of our house. I would definitely recommend her services and we would be happy to book with her again!”

“We are so grateful to Alyssa for taking such good care of Sophie. We left her for the 1st time in 6 years, and Alyssa took wonderful care of her and kept us at ease every day with updates and pictures. Sophie isn't easy, and she is like our child, so trust me when I say that you can trust Alyssa with your fur baby. We will not hesitate to call Alyssa when we go anywhere again, and now we have the peace of mind to make future plans!”

“This was our first time having someone stay in our house so it was a bit awkward in the beginning BUT Lorissa was a great sitter for our 3 pups while we were away. When she was going to be later than expected she communicated with us. She was able to come 2 weekends in a row prior to us leaving to be sure the pups would know who she was…we plan on having Lorissa sit for us again in the near future! 🐶”
