“I couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Kaitlyn. She was communicative, kept us up to date on the animals, sent pics, kept the house cleaner than I do, and the animals are relaxed and happy after our absence. It will be so much easier leaving them next time as long as we have Kaitlyn!”


About: Since I was 15, I have taken care of neighbors pets and my own! I have had chickens, fish, hamsters, dogs, and currently have a cat of my own! I am available this whole month! I do have another job so I will need to know in advanced when I’m needed! I should be available most days. I am very respectful towards homes and would never leave it without making sure it’s tidy and clean up any accidents that could happen, I also am very communicative!

“Did great with our dog. Let him lay on the couch with him. Played in the yard with him, sent us picture updates. Will definitely use him again.”


“I was so nervous about leaving Chico with someone I’d just met but Julie really made sure I was comfortable. She made two trips to my home beforehand and let me bring Chico over to her home beforehand. I got frequent photos and text updates from her about how things were going. She cared for him as if he was her own. We brought his food and toys to her house in advance. We were able to leave him in his kennel at home and she came and picked him up after we’d left. She made sure he was home in his own kennel before we made it back home. I couldn’t be more pleased. We don’t travel much but if/when we do I will definitely use her again!”

About: I have taken care of my own current dog, Mack, since I was 12. I've had several other family dogs in the past that I have helped raise and train as well, I've taken care of other people's animals before, and I have always truly loved all animals. ❤️ I love to walk dogs, or cats! I can also bathe, feed, and make sure your pet has the best care. I am currently available to take care of your pet at any point this summer! I have worked part-time at Petsense and I currently work at Tractor Supply, but I will work around my schedule at any point to try and help you with your fur babies! Personally, I treat my dog like he is my baby. I love him so much and love to sit and play with him, give him snuggles, and take him with me on walks because I simply love being in the presence of animals. They make me happy, and so I do what I can to make sure your animals are happy and taken care of too.

Potty breaks are no problem with my big fenced yard. I do not leave dogs out for too long especially in the heat. We will have play time daily.

When they are with me they are my priority. All other activities are put on hold. We do as little as possible to make sure we spend as much time with your babies while they are with us. I have a fenced in backyard and a home they are welcomed in as family. Nice comfy twin sized bed for sleep! They will be spoiled!!

I want to be their home away from home. My home is their home and my fenced back yard offers plenty of play time!

“Haley was great!! She kept us updated often and sent pics of our fur babies. Our diabetic little girl received her insulin dosages and was healthy and happy when we returned home. Our big shy boy has not been left alone since he came to live with us, but Haley knew how to let him come to her by sitting in the floor and waiting for him to come to her on his terms. We are very happy with the care in our absence, and would use Haley again when needed. 🐾”


“Savannah was amazing! Our dogs can sometimes take a bit to warm up but she ensured us they would be fine and we felt very comfortable leaving them with her. Not only did she take great care of our pups, our house was cleaner than when we left! I can't say enough good things about Savannah. We will definitely be using her services again!”

“I had to get a sitter on short notice as my regular sitter had COVID. So, this is my first experience with Rover.com and with Jenna. Jenna was The first to respond and answered all my questions. Jenna took care of my dogs and followed their feeding schedule, sent me pics twice a day, and when I got home, my pets acted like the do when o come home from work, although I was gone 7 days. So, I knew they had a good time. When Jenna came by to return the key, my dogs went crazy! They were beating on the storm door and jumping around. They were definitely happier to see her than me, which I think is the highest recommendation a pet sitter can get. Jenna was great. Dogs were happy and o had a worry free vacation.”
