“Brooke did an excellent job house & pet sitting our pup, Forrest. She’s very attentive and kept us updated very well. We would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a great pet & house sitter.”

“She worked wonderfully with our brand new puppy and was more than happy to work around our schedules. Our puppy adores her and we could tell he had a lot of fun hanging out with her! She is a fantastic listener when it comes to any house rules you may have, and really tries to get to know the dog and the people. I highly recommend her for your next booking, you will not be disappointed!”

“Miss Kenlee’s so friendly and accommodating! She kept me informed and sent cute photos of our girls and that gave us peace of mind that they were able to be up to their old tricks even when we were away. Booking our next trip and hoping Kenlee will be free!”

“Lilli was super sweet, listened to all our many requests, and our pups loved her! We booked somewhat last minute because of a day trip, and she made us feel very comfortable with leaving our pups in her care. Will book again! Thank you Lilli!”


“Thank you so much for caring for my fur babes! This was the first time I have been able to leave out of town and we left a day early and this was a very short notice. I really appreciate you coming and helping me care for my Archie and Summer. Will definitely book again”

“Absolutely the best! Katie was very understanding, patient and sweet with our dog despite the dog being timid. Took great care of my pup and home while I was gone! Would recommend Katie to anyone looking for a dog sitter ?”

“I’ve had Andrew sit my doggy a couple times now for extended periods of time, and I’m extremely happy with his services! Andrew is quick to respond, and keeps me up to date with Leon while I’m away. I highly recommend!”

“Caroline was very easy to book and communicate with. I booked her as a last minute decision. I had to go out to go out of town with less than 24 hours notice. She agreed to come over and let my dog out and feed her twice daily. Caroline always let me know that she had been there and what happened on each visit. She definitely saved the day, highly recommend!!!”
“Thank you Maria for taking such good care of my Mazy! You were amazing and when we came home Mazy was still as happy and excited as she always is! That lets me know you gave her attention and were a great sitter! Thank you again and I am definitely booking you again!”

“Wonderful sitter. Highly flexible and super communicative. I felt super safe leaving her in my space w my pup! Margaux (the pup) seemed to have a wonderful time! The house was left in perfect shape as well. 5 out of 5 stars.”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve owned dogs myself, helped care for neighbors’ pets, and walked friends’ dogs over the years. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and overnight care throughout the week. I understand pets thrive on consistency, and I’m happy to work with your routine to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard and live in a safe south-side neighborhood with plenty of room for walks and playtime. Whether your pet loves to be active or prefers quiet cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel at home and cared for like family.

About: I’ve had my own dog for the past two years and personally potty trained her, taught her tricks, and trained her to be comfortable and well-behaved around people. I also worked in child care for two years, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for others with attention and love. I treat every dog with the same care and protection I would give a one-year-old baby, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away. I’m available Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day, and Wednesday from 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM. I’m flexible during those times and happy to work with your pet’s routine. I create a safe, calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on your pet’s safety and happiness. I treat every dog like family and make sure they get plenty of attention and supervision.
“Samantha was so great with our dogs and took great care of our place, too, while she stayed with them overnight. She sent us updates and communicated well about questions etc. We’ll definitely be repeat customers!”

“Bree went above and beyond for our three animals and our house. Everything felt clean and fresh when we got home, which is an ultimate luxury after being away for several days. Genuinely the best person I've booked on Rover. Bree gave lots of updates and had great questions before and during her stay. Can't wait to book her again!”

“Broghan was very reliable and attentive to my fur babies! He sent me to the cutest photos too. I highly recommend Broghan, and I will definitely be using them the next time I need a sitter!”

Broghan was absolutely outstanding! Very prompt, excellent in communications both prior and during booking. He has an easy, calming way about him my dogs just loved. Would definitely recommend. He dedicated his time to be at my house with my pets, playing with and caring for them with just a few ‘ aways’ for errands & to run his own dogs. Highly trustworthy and dependable! Will definitely be asking for his help with my two 102lbs dogs in future plans this summer!

Caroline was very easy to book and communicate with. I booked her as a last minute decision. I had to go out to go out of town with less than 24 hours notice. She agreed to come over and let my dog out and feed her twice daily. Caroline always let me know that she had been there and what happened on each visit. She definitely saved the day, highly recommend!!!
Brianna was an amazing pet sitter! She had great communication the entire time, sent lots of pictures and updates, and took such good care of our cats. We especially appreciated how comfortable and reliable she was with giving prescription medication, which gave us huge peace of mind while we were away. Our cats were happy and relaxed when we got home, which says everything. Highly recommend her

Wow Nicole did such a great dog with my pups!! I have 2 dogs that don’t get along so it requires a little extra attention to keep them separated and get them each plenty of time outside. She did a wonderful time and sent pics and updates daily. Highly recommend!
