“Sam was an incredible puppy sitter. This is our first puppy so I am overly cautious with her. Within the first thirty minutes of us leaving, sam sent us a plethora of photos and updates, leaving my heart at ease. She updated us very frequently with updates and cutesy photos of our girl. She let us know her overall report when we came home, and watched her to make sure she has no separation anxiety with us. It was such a relief to have her, and I will absolutely be using sam again.”



“Annie was great with our two little pups and our senior cat. She was very tentative to their schedules and routines. Follows directions and requests as well. She was the first (of a few) that our older dog actually warmed up to, immediately. Communication was great, with updates constantly. We'll definitely have her house/pet sit again!”


“Nexsy was incredible. She helped on short notice and still snuck in a meet and greet. Polite, kind, and very understanding of our dogs. She went above and beyond during the time she spent with them by doing some helpful behavioral training. We felt they were in safe and capable hands. Highly recommended!”


“Sammy cared for our pets several full days and nailed their routines and playtime. She texted updates and sent pics regularly. Our dog and cat are quite needy and Sammy made them feel secure and happy. We felt relieved and assured they were in great hands, and she willingly took care of minor home issues that came up. Her experience and love for pets - both dogs and cats, was evident.”


“Donna was absolutely amazing. She took great care of our girl. She had great communication, was present during agreed up schedules, played with her, took walks and even took care of some personal requests such as putting trash out, checking mail and packages and vacuuming. Our home was exactly how we left it, We could tell our girl was very happy with our dog sitting choice. looking forward to booking again soon! Thank you Donna”


“Beyond thrilled with how loved all..ALL of our animals were. Even our dog who cowers from anyone but his family was loving in them. So so incredibly happy our animals got to meet someone, aside from us, who genuinely loves animals! Highly recommend!”


“Nina was communicative and reliable. She kept me updated with information and photos, and I know our kitty absolutely adored his time with her! Definitely would trust her to house/cat sit again!”

“Sarah was a wonderful caretaker for our dog, Oliver, while we were on vacation. She stayed in our home with Oliver and also took great care of our home. This was our first time using a dog sitter and it was great to have the piece of mind that our dog was doing well with the photos Sarah sent. We would definitely use Sarah again!”

“Linda was friendly and trustworthy! My dogs immediately liked her! She was easy to communicate with and sent us lots of pictures while we were away!

About: As a college student with a set weekly schedule, I bring years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. While I may be new to the Rover platform and the area, I’m certainly not new to pet care. I grew up in a household with three dogs and currently help care for my family’s Yorkipoo, so I’m well-versed in the daily responsibilities and emotional needs that come with pet ownership. Additionally, I’ve looked after the dogs of friends and coworkers, gaining valuable experience in adapting to various routines, behavioral quirks, and care preferences. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be a big decision, and I take that trust seriously. Whether your dog needs gentle attention in their senior years, high-energy playtime, or just a reliable companion while you're away, I’m committed to treating your pet like family—with patience, love, and respect. I may be new to this platform, but I’m not new to providing quality, compassionate care. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. As a graduate student with a structured academic schedule and no outside employment, I have consistent availability throughout the week. I am in class from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM every Monday through Thursday, which allows me to reliably plan and commit to care outside those hours. I have large blocks of free time during weekday evenings and throughout the weekends, which I dedicate to providing extended care, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m able to accommodate a range of care needs, including early morning or evening visits, depending on your pet’s routine. I understand how vital consistency and engagement are in pet care, and I’m committed to offering dependable, attentive, and compassionate service. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority while you're away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when providing drop-in visits and walks for your pet. During drop-in visits, I ensure your pet feels comfortable and cared for in their familiar environment, following your instructions for feeding, playtime, or administering medication if needed. I’m attentive to their needs, providing companionship and keeping them happy while you’re away. On walks, I prioritize your pet’s safety by using secure leashes and harnesses, sticking to familiar routes, and staying alert to any potential hazards. I tailor each walk to match your dog’s energy level, ensuring they get the right amount of exercise and mental stimulation. With my attention to detail and genuine love for animals, you can trust your pet will be in good hands during every visit or walk.

“Felicity looked after my elderly dog for 10 days while my family and I were out of the country. Having her at my home gave me peace of mind and made me feel comfortable my pup could be in a place she was familiar with. Moe was well cared for and Felicity gave me lots of updates during our trip, even offering a video call! 10/10 would book again!”

Riley H.Star Sitter
“Riley is a very responsible and trustworthy pet sitter. She has pet sit for me countless times over the years and I would highly recommend her as a sitter. She has great communication skills and a huge soft spot for animals. In the past, she has shown this by volunteering at animal rescue organizations. With her compassion for animals, I feel this is the perfect fit for her.”

Ashley L.Star Sitter
“Ashley is a phenomenal pet-sitter. She takes wonderful care of my two cats, 5 and 3 years-old, both of whom have very distinct and somewhat fussy personalities. They also both have different dietary restrictions of which she’s always been very cognizant. My youngest cat has some temperament issues, so she does have to administer medication on the nights she’s watching him, and my older cat requires frequent teeth brushing to keep her hereditary gum disease at bay, which Ashley is also able to handle. Would definitely recommend!”
