“I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our cat received from Erin! Erin responded right away to my last minute booking. She went above and beyond to make sure our cat was well-fed, entertained, and comfortable. I really appreciated the updates and photos that kept me connected to Gio, and it was clear she was happy and relaxed. Highly recommend Erin!”

“We are very thankful to have found Shea to care for our pups while we are away! Having a high energy rescue pup we had been limited in our ability to do much traveling. Shea came for a meet and greet and after spending a short time with us we were all calm and comfortable. Shea has helped us several times and each time we have come back to a tidy home and happy, well-adjusted doggies! Thank you Shea.”

“Rachael was great with Cali. She communicated incredibly well with me prior to, during, and after her visit with my puppy. I would absolutely use her services again and highly recommend her”

“Prompt, professional, a loving caregiver for our two cats. Mary asked insightful questions about their care and made sure she knew where treats, toys and other necessities were before we left. This is our first time having her sit and we’d love to invite her back”


“Our cats love Abmari and everybody knows cats don’t love just anyone. She has such a gentle and considerate presence that we really appreciated and so did the cats! Thank you so much for taking care of our tiny friends, Abmari! You’re amazing.”


“Ruby had another great span of days hanging with Hannah. Ruby and her cat siblings thought they were on vacation too and ransacked some treats. Hannah moved a chair to block them from further indulging and this helped us come home to less of a mess and having to deal with upset pet tummies.”

“Rachel was very helpful with my two cats and had great communication, and even called to ask if anyone had been in the house between visits when things didn't look the same (the cats had moved a curtain). Her diligence was greatly appreciated. Would certainly hire again.”

“Melissa provided great communication and had a lot of patience with my not understanding how to book with this app lol. And my dog seemed very happy to have her visit! Thanks, again!”

“Riley was awesome! We contacted her kind of last-minute, but she made time to meet us and our cat before our trip and then accommodated our drop-in needs through the week. She's responsive, trustworthy, and caring, which went a long way toward mitigating our cat's usual grumpiness when we go away. We highly recommend Riley to others in the area!”

“Brittany was amazing with my pitty. This was my first time having someone check in on her, especially, since she is a very hyper & energetic pitbull. I will definitely be requesting service from her in the future!”


“Jessica did a great job! She was very flexible with our schedule. We recommend her. She responds to requests quickly and did great job with my sister in laws pug!”

About: I’ve owned an assortment of animals from dogs & cats, to hamsters and birds. Currently I have a dog and two cats that mean the world to me. I enjoy caring for animals, either walking dogs, or scooping litter boxes. I retired early in 2020 due to the pandemic, and couldn’t think of anything I’d enjoy more than being with animals. I decided to give pet sitting a try, and I’m loving it. Let me spoil and care for your pet just like you do! I’m available on weekends and all holidays too. Currently I do not travel outside of Enfield. My pets are my routine! First thing in the morning they get their breakfast and treats before I scoop their litter boxes. Then it’s time to walk my pup, and start my day. Evenings are usually a repeat, just with more snuggles. All my pets are free to roam my 4 bedroom home. I have a completely fenced in yard on a quiet dead end street with only 6 houses. I am almost always home and love the company of animals. I will follow client rules in their homes.

About: I've had 3 cats 2 dogs 2 horses and 3 rabbits in my life time, returning to my original passion for a career. Working towards animal rehab specialist to help pets return home after a serious injury. Dearly fond of my babies, and yours as well! I currently have a ton of free time, in the process of choosing my next steps and courses. Ready whenever you or your fur baby needs me! I will monitor your pets needs closely, as well as take potty samples, give medication and update photos as needed! Your baby is important to me, an eye will be kept on them at all times. If an accident happens I will clean it no issue. Time spent playing with them is important to me so they feel fully enriched as well as the perfect environment to rest while you're away. I'm entirely flexible to their needs.
About: I have always had a pet dog and ever since I was a teenager, I’d dog-sit for family and neighbors. Since college, I’ve been pet-sitting ajd dog walking on a more professional level. I’ve babysat for a few hours, simply for a walk, but have also watched multiple high energy dogs for up to two weeks. I’ve cared for dogs under a year old and up to 13 years old. I’ve always loved dogs and find them very easy to get along with and care for no matter their size, age, or personality. I have also cared for kittens a few weeks old, senior cats, administering medication orally, grooming them if they have long hair etc. Cats have a very different energy than dogs but I enjoy taking care of them just as much as dogs. I am currently in between jobs so I have a lot of free time to care for other dogs, whether it is a short walk or a multi-hour play date, etc. I always follow whatever guidance I am provided by pet parents. This means if you are only comfortable with your dog on a leash or lead while in your yard, I strictly follow that. If there are specific commands to use, certain behavior to watch out for or discourage, particular toys or activities they enjoy, I always follow what information I am given and am always open and communicate well about any issues or concerns that might arise on my end.
Southwood Acres cat parents share their Rover experiences
Jaclyn is such a kind amazing person and I’m so glad we found her! She really made me feel that my fur babies were in the best hands. She was very detailed on everything. My cats warmed up very quickly to her! Overall just a great experience with her and was very communicative. She even came to my house to meet and understand the routine, pick up our garage button before we left for our trip and closed up the house each day. I would 100% recommend her to anyone! Thank you Jaclyn!

Aiden was wonderful! He completed a drop-in visits for my cat while I was away and provided excellent care. My cat has special needs and requires both oral medication and an inhaler, and Aiden picked up the routine quickly and handled it with ease. I would recommend Aiden and would book with him again!

Brittany’s amazing and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my cats were in great care! She took the time to go out of her way and stop over for a meet and greet before we left which made me feel at ease. Great communication and sent pictures of our cats snuggling up. One of my cats is shy to warm up to new people but she truly is an animal whisperer and he was laying down right by her feet the second he met her! Thanks Brittany!

Samantha was AMAZING! She sent photos and checked in each AM and PM when she came to feed our cats. We came home and they were happy and well fed, and their eating area and litter boxes were both clean and well kept. We recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter that provides peace of mind!
