“Cynder is the best! We use her anytime we leave town. Rico hurt his leg during a stay and Cynder was communicative with us and took extra care for him. I’d recommend her to everyone to take care of your babies. She treats them as her own!”

“Catherine was so attentive to our dog Rae! She sent plenty of pics and I also felt super comfortable with her staying in our home. She left the place perfect! Will definitely reach out to her again!”

About: I have cared for dogs and cats for nearly my entire life. I understand that pets are part of the family, and your animal’s safety, comfort, and routine will always come first. I pride myself on my ability to follow any and all instructions or procedures necessary, and your pet will hardly notice that you aren’t at home! My schedule is very flexible, and I can be around as much or as little as your pets need me. I am available any day of the week! I treat everyone’s home and property as if it were my own. I realize that letting a stranger into your safe space is a huge deal, and I will always do everything in my power to make the experience easy on you. Enjoy your trip and let me handle the pets!
“My golden retrievers think Michael is amazing and so do we. He is conscientious about keeping them engaged with toys, walks and swimming. He always leaves our house just as he found it. He consistently goes above and beyond which is very much appreciated and eliminates any possible anxiety in leaving the dogs in his care.”

“Danika was available lastly minute and I couldn’t be happier. She did an amazing job caring for our pups. She was thorough and caring, gave lots of cuddles, walks, and provided pics. She was great to communicate with and I felt at ease knowing she was there.”

“Kalle was great!!! She was very thorough in her questions to make sure she understood my instruction s since this was her first time. She went above an beyond what was expected. My Cali was looking for her the day after I returned home.”

“Kinan was exceptional. He took great care of our two pups, made sure the house was spotless when we arrived home, and helped us with a very big project. Can't recommend him enough, and plan to work with him again!”

“Sherina was amazing! I felt so good knowing my cat was under her care. She was very thorough both with the care of my pet and the care of my home. My cat warmed up to her very quickly, which isn’t common. She was very communicative, and worked with me to find a solution when my picky cat decided she no longer liked her wet food. She even stayed an extra day and was very accommodating when my flight back got canceled. The house was spotless and my cat was happy and healthy when I got back. I absolutely would book again. Thank you Sherina!!”

“Cat M. did an excellent job with my dog, Maggie. Cat walked Maggie twice a day and she even bathed her after Maggie had rolled in the dirt. My house was in the same condition as when I left it, which was greatly appreciated. Cat even spent her own time with me after I returned to teach me some tricks to use when taking Maggie for a walk, as Maggie is a puller and she is reactive to other dogs. Cat has been the best pet sitter through Rover that I’ve had in the past and I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve been house and pet sitting for over 15 years, specifically caring for dogs and cats. Until now, this has been for friends, family and through word of mouth. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, puppies, senior pets, special diets, exercise routines and the everyday little things that come with keeping a household running while you’re away. I’m also happy to help with basic house sitting tasks like watering plants, bringing in mail, taking out trash and keeping things tidy. I genuinely enjoy animals and take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pets and home seriously. Before sitting, I prefer to have all animal specific needs, emergency contacts, primary vet information and the location of the closest 24 hour vet. I have a friendly, energetic 2.5 year old Golden Retriever who may accompany me during house sits, depending on your pet’s temperament and your preference. She loves dogs of all sizes and is great with kids. I’ll always check with you first and make sure everyone is comfortable with the arrangement. I truly adore animals and will give your pet(s) the care and attention they deserve while you’re away. Communication is also important to me, and I’m happy to provide updates however you prefer - whether that’s texts, calls, pictures or videos. I can check in frequently or give you plenty of space, whatever makes you most comfortable. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. I’m generally available for walks, drop in visits and overnight house sitting, including weekdays, weekends and holidays. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can accommodate different schedules and care needs with advance notice. I’ll keep your pets as close to their normal routine as possible. A typical day will include feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks and plenty of attention based on your pet’s individual needs. I’m also happy to follow specific exercise routines, feeding instructions, medications or other care instructions. For overnight house sits, I’ll spend the night in your home and treat it respectfully as my own. I’m happy to handle basic household tasks like watering plants, bringing in mail, taking out trash and keeping things tidy. I’m comfortable spending time with your pets throughout the day while also giving them space when they want it. I’m happy to provide updates by text, call, pictures or videos at whatever frequency you prefer. I have a friendly, energetic 2.5 year old Golden Retriever who may accompany me on some house sits. I’ll always discuss this with you beforehand and only bring her when it’s a good fit for your pets and your preferences.

“Jorge was very kind, loving and caring towards Chanel. He kept us updated and sent lots of pictures. We were very happy he could sit Chanel for one evening. We will surely use his services again.”


“Diane was wonderful all around. Diane is a very gentle and caring caregiver and worked out perfect for Archie. She sent lots of pictures and overall it was a wonderful experience. Very tidy and thoughtful with feedback. We will use Diane's services again.”

“Emely did an outstanding job house sitting and pet sitting for over two weeks. She sent daily updates and photos. The house was spotless when I returned. I plan to book her again.”

“Hannah was super sweet, and did a great job taking care of Sierra and the house. She asked lots of good questions during the meet and greet, and came by again to do a little practice walk so she’d feel equipped to work with Sierra’s reactivity issues. She was really good about staying in touch and communicating, and asked questions if she had them. She was great and will definitely be reaching out again!”


“You pet will love Cyndi! Excellent communication and such a beautiful person in and out. My boy immediately fell in love with her. 1 million percent recommend!”

“I would definitely recommend Stevie! The pups were happy and tired out when I got home, the house and yard were spotless, even better than when I left. I got multiple updates and pictures throughout the day which put my mind at ease. I will be booking with Stevie again!”

Laura had a nice visit with our two small dogs while we went out of town for 2 days. Our house looked good when we returned due to Laura keeping it clean and organized, which we really appreciated. We recommend Laura and hope to see her again in the near future.

Aanakin was wonderful with Topi! I could tell Topi was really well cared for and felt completely comfortable with her while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. Aanakin was kind, reliable, and took great care of my girl. It means a lot to be able to leave Topi with someone I trust and know she’s in good hands. I would absolutely recommend Aanakin and would happily have her watch Topi again! ❤️

Stacy went above and beyond for my pups. We have a very reactive dog who needs special care when meeting new people and Stacy worked with us getting to know our dog, which included multiple meetings prior to the booking. We are so thankful for her help and’s will definitely book with her again!

Makiah is a life saver! She accepted our house sitting request with short notice and took excellent care of our Milo. She gave us peace of mind by checking in with photos, which we can see that Milo adored her, he was all smiles. She left the house spotless and followed instructions. I’d highly recommend her to watch your fur babies.

Skylar Is a rock star in my book! she had to come in and take over pet sitting at my house when the first pet sitter never showed up. She kept me informed for any changes and asked if I mind if she left for a bit. I was very happy with her since she had no instructions and came in blind. I would definitely hire her again!

Renee was so amazing and will definitely use her again. She took care of our girls very well, walking them 2-3 times each day and giving them lots of attention. Made me feel at peace knowing our dogs got the care they needed. She also watered some of my plants, and without asking took our trash out so we didn’t miss the pickup. Thank you Renee!

Catherine did an amazing job house sitting and watching our high energy Australian Sheppard and two cats. We were gone for several weeks and knowing that our animals were in great hands was very assuring. She kept us updated with pictures and took our dog on daily walks. Our house was in great condition when we came back, she took care of mail/trash/etc. She responded quickly to messages and made sure we were on track to be home on time before she left. Catherine is great and I highly recommend her for any pet and house sitting needs! Thank you!

Mariana was amazing! She took wonderful care of our dogs, followed all of our instructions, and kept us updated throughout her stay. We came home to happy, relaxed pups. She was punctual, very organized, and a pleasure to work with. We would absolutely book Mariana again and highly recommend her!

Emily was absolutely incredible with our fur babies! This was our first experience having a sitter, and she set the bar high. Due to our advanced planning window she was incredibly accomodating and flexible meeting the animals twice prior to the actual appointment. She sent daily photo updates - unpromtped - keeping us in the loop to their behavior and demeanor while we were away. She was very communicative, responsible and very sweet. Upon returning home everything was as we left it, and the animals were happy, healthy and relaxed. We will definitely be booking Emily in the future! :)
