“Thank you, Anna! Very trustworthy, with quick responses and lots of pictures. Our pittie, Yoshi, appreciated the several long walks a day and all the cuddles. Anna watched Yoshi and our cat, Jane, in our home and was very respectful and left the house spotless as well. We will definitely be a repeat customer of hers!”

“Melissa was such a blessing! She took the best care of our sweet Lucy. I knew Lucy was comfortable and in great hands because she ate her food everyday and usually she skips days because she’s anxious when we’re gone. Melissa sent wonderful daily updates and photos, too.”

“Tim is awesome! I’ve used many sitters through Rover and Tim is the best! This is the 2nd time he has watched my 4 dogs and chickens at my house. He feeds them and spends a great deal of time with them. He also goes above and beyond by sweeping my floors and washing the bedding in my guest bedroom he slept in. It’s nice going on vacation and not having to worry. It’s also great coming home from vacation to happy dogs and a clean house.”

“Madysen gave my fur babies comfort & lots of love as I wasn't able to take them with me on my vacation with my grandson. She monitored Mitzi 's ear as in gets infected easily. She played with them. She even let them sleep with her to prevent any sadness. Dandy got the belly rubs he loves. Rascal the cat even got some attention & neck scratches. I've been approved for return care so they must have behaved well enough... LoL. Thanks bunches Madysen.”

“Alonnie is amazing. She is very warm and welcoming. She has had great availability and is very good at her communication. I have already rebooked her and am getting ready to request her for more dates.”

About: Hi I’m a college student who loves animals and especially dogs. I grew up with dogs and I actually have my own pup named Shelby! She is a gorgeous mixed who I adopted from the pound. We love to spend time playing and training together! It helps keep us both stimulated ☺️. Me and my cat Greyson love to cuddle and he loves to play tag with his sister sometimes! I have been pet sitting since the age 10 and I have dealt with small , big, young and the old dogs. I’m able to make connections with any type of dog. I have dealt with dogs with special diets and needs. I love all dogs equally and would love to get to know your babies each. I do have doggy treats and toys but I would love to have any future friends bring their own. I also have experience working for a doggie day camp named pet paradise where I was taught and trained to understand dog and cat behavior so trust that your furry friends are in the best care! I currently have an open schedule and am home most days so I have complete flexibility to spend time and play with your furry friends! I have a one active friendly dog who loves to play and chase so if you are comfortable she is looking for a play date! I love to go on long walks and trips for treats! For my cats it depends on there comfortable level but for mines we do tons of chase play and cuddles!
“Alexis was great! She came over for a quick meet and greet a few weeks before the time she was needed for sitting, and my pups instantly loved her. She was there when she said should would be and took great care of the pups while we were away!”

“Joshua did a great job with my 2 dogs, and 11 month old Dalmation puppy, and a 7 year old Hungarian Pumi. He went above and beyond when I did not arrive home when I told him I would be there...( flight delays) Joshua stayed until 1:30 am to make sure the dogs would be OK . The dogs really seemed to enjoy him and were sorry to see him go! I can highly recommend him!”

“The perfect dog sitter for my family! I booked her for house-sitting in my home for my 2 dogs while I went on my holiday trip. My dogs are nervous when meeting new people but she was so calm and friendly that they quickly grew comfortable her. She sent pictures of them every day and I felt confident that she took great care of them while I was away. She was also super flexible with my schedule and was able to come watch them with just a few hours notice! I will definitely be booking with her again!!”

“Alexis was amazing first time I met her. I knew she would be great with my dog Maggie. Who is blind and deaf? And I knew she would put the patience in to take care of her for my journey away. She was an amazing pet sitter and house sitter. She did an exceptional job and I would recommend her to any one I am planning to use her in the future as well.”

About: I’ve worked full time with animals for 7 years now. This includes doggy daycare/boarding, animal shelters, & shadowing at vet clinics! I’ve fed, administered medications, groomed, supervised daycare groups, and cared for thousands (yes, thousands 😅) of dogs and cats. I currently work part time, for only 4 hours each shift. With that being said, I have plenty of time to care for your animals. I genuinely love animals. My main goal is to give them the care & love they normally receive from you. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your fur babies! I have no problem giving multiple updates or whatever is needed in order for you to feel more comfortable about your pet's safety & happiness.
About: With over 6 years of pet sitting experience and 15+ years caring for my own animals, I treat every pet like family. I’m dedicated to providing personalized care, your way, ensuring your pet feels loved and safe while in my care! My open weekly schedule is a little bit tricky due to me working full-time about 20 minutes away. My availability on those days would only be to the pets who don’t need to be let out side for about an eight hour period until I got home. Otherwise, my weekend schedule is fully open and I can be home all day to let any pets outside that I would need to. In my home, pets enjoy plenty of attention, playtime, and walks—with help from my two kids (ages 9 and 11) to keep them company. Pets are welcome on my furniture! In your home, I’ll follow your routine closely and tailor care to your pet’s needs in any way you request.
About: I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and others, including feeding, walks, playtime, and overnight care. I’m used to following specific instructions and keeping pets on their normal routine. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, small birds, and bunnies. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and always aim to create a calm, safe environment for every pet. I’m open to taking bookings off of Rover if you want to avoid any fees and make booking easier! :) I’m a full time pet sitter who offers more than just overnight stays. I am available for early morning or late-night care as well. I’m open to last minute bookings as long as my schedule allows! :) I love caring for your pets as if they were my own. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and medications if needed! I love to make sure your pet is still on there normal routine if they have one, so always let me know any specific instructions.
