“Paige was absolutely fantastic with our fur babies! She showed them love and patiently took them on walks around our property each day. She excelled in communication and was a joy to meet! We will certainly hire Paige again! We are huge fans!”


“Julie is AMAZING! This was our very first time using the Rover app. and Julie was a perfect fit for our fur family while we were away. To be able to leave on a trip and not feel worried about your companions means so much. Julie is consistent, a great Communicator, and followed all our directions precisely. When we returned, our dogs were calm and happy to see us. From past experience this was not the case as we sensed our girls were stressed. Not with Julie! It was a flawless transition coming back home as if we never left. It was obvious she was in the moment with our girls every time she came to see them. We received pics and a video that allowed me to see how happy they all were. Julie is a gem for sure and a huge blessing to us! In our book she is the very best and we will use her services again. Thank you Julie! We appreciate you more than you know.”


“Brooke was the best for our two cats! I knew i didnt have to worry at all while we were out of town! She is such an animal lover and our kitties took to her right away. Thank you so much Brooke and I know we'll be booking with her again in the future!”


“Jill is absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to anyone! Will definitely be rebooking with her anytime I need help with my animals. :) I can’t express how much I appreciated her spending time with my fur babies while I was out of town for a few days; she sent me updates every time she was at my house, and I can tell she really cares and loves my pets like they are her own. It helped me feel so much better and a lot less guilty for going on vacation, just knowing I have someone I can trust to help me take care of my animals. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Jill! :)”


About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats since I was a child. They are not like family, they are family. Many friends and relatives have entrusted me to care for their pets for short and long stays at my home where they receive love, attention, play, and care. When caring for your pets, they will not be alone for more than 4 hours at a time during the weekday. Evenings and weeknights they will not be alone for more than an hour at a time. I have a large fenced yard and close access to a public park for walks. I enjoy playing with animals and giving them attention and care.

About: I’m really good with being patient and understanding with animals. I’ve had many difficulty animals and so I’ve learned to cater towards their needs. No animal is too difficult I’m currently in college so I would have to wait after classes or before classes. Most days I’m done with school at 12pm and I don’t have classes on Fridays. Unfortunately because I am living in a dorm therefore I cannot take care of pets in my home. Over breaks however, I have a fence.

“Danielle is very responsible and followed my routine that I use for my two cats. I loved seeing the photos of them. It made my time away from them a little less stressful. I would recommend her and I also plan on using her in the future.”


About: I’ve spent five years in the world of animal welfare. From daycare to rescue, learning about canine behavior. Handling dogs that may have abnormal needs is not something I shy away from! I have a passion for making sure every dog in the world is shown the love and affection they deserve. I’m a mail carrier (ironic I know) so my schedule varies each week. I am on call most of the time but can usually work a full day and still have availability in the afternoon. I am happy to follow any routine your dog may need as well as provide any extra care I can during the time you are away. Every dog is different and thus I am adaptable to whatever you and your dog may need!

About: I’ve always had pets since I was a little girl. I have taken care of dogs of all ages and frequently volunteered at my local animal shelter and vet clinic. I’m currently I full-time college student. I have my own pups to take care of so adding yours into my routine won’t be a problem ! Very flexible schedule I have a large play area. Two friendly fur babies at home to keep yours company ! Plenty of time for 6+ potty breaks/walks per day. Great idea if your dog needs some socialization !

About: I grew up with my own puppers and also house sat friends animals! I’m nothing special but I will love your fur baby like it’s my own. I’m a stay at home mom and always looking for something to spice up my time. Being able to play with a fur baby would make the whole day better! While I don’t have a yard for your baby to run in I love being outside! Lots of walks, parks to visit, and pets/snuggles to be had!


About: I volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.

About: I have cared for the well-being of my own and others pets since I was 7. Anywhere from family, friends or friends of loved ones. I care for pets outside my own part-time. I am a traveling entrepreneur, artist, healer and teacher. Tending to the garden of animals and other humans helps me to remember to care for my own ecosystem. I have two indoor-only cats. My practice with caring for client's pets has ranged from indoor and or outdoor cats, kenneling and walking dogs daily. I am hyper aware of toxic plants and or allergies when it comes to animals. I adapt my plans of action given the data the animals I am caring for gives me. I am well versed with anxious cats and dogs.

Gerrad L.Star Sitter
“I think Gerrad should have been raised on a farm. Gerrad has a love for all animals. I have known him to bring dogs into his home that were lost or strays and works on finding the owners. He will feed them and show them love then hates to give them up when he finds the owners. He has had his own pets ( dogs and cats ) and the pets become his friends. If you want your pet to be loved, Gerrad will do that.”

Dakota P.
“We are an animal loving family. In addition to our two cats (one indoor/one outdoor) and a 2' bearded dragon, we have two rescued Pit Bulls ages 3 & 12. Each dog has his own set of special needs such as diet, exercise, and supplements/medications. Taking care of these furry (and scaly) family members can be a part time job all its own! Dakota has come stayed in our home with our pets on multiple occasions while our family was out of town. Her attention to detail in following the instructions for the care of our animals has been amazing ! She treats them with the same level of love and compassion as I imagine she would her very own pet. I would recommend her any of your pet-sitting needs!”

“Jannet is our dog sitter for when we are out of town. We have a shih-tzu named Bella and I always feel safe knowing that Jannet will take good care of her. Bella loves Jannet so much and always is excited to see her! Jannet shows attention to detail, not only does she play with Bella but she always makes sure she’s clean and fed! I highly recommend Jannet!”
Strafford dog parents share their Rover experiences
We are so glad we found Sydney! She is great at keeping us up to date and we felt safe leaving our pet and home in her care while we were away. Our German Shepherd took to her very quickly and they seem to truly enjoy each other. We can't wait to work with her again.
