“Veronika was quick to respond to my initial request. This was for a short, but important trip. Veronika reassured me that my baby, Stache was in good hands, & I got the Rover cards with each visit. If she is available, I will definitely request Veronika again!”
“Adrienne was amazing and made leaving my fur baby that much easier. She made sure he was comfortable and got the enrichment he needed. Will definitely be looking to reach and book again in the future.”
“Estefany is amazing with my cat Wymack and even more amazing with communication and last minute accommodation! She went above and beyond watching my baby and fit in pet sitting him super last minute! I recommend her to anyone that needs some peace of mind when they are out of town!”
“Jovita was so awesome! So so good w/ both my dogs, one with past trauma leading to aggression at times. She gave him the space he needed all while filling his needs (potty breaks and food). She kept me updated, sent pics, and was great communicating. I will request her again any day to take care of my pups. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello!! My name is Emily and I am a lifetime lover of dogs! I’ve had dogs throughout my whole life and found a passion for providing them with a safe and loving home 🥰. I specialize in high-energy dogs, along with dogs with medical needs. Whether your pup needs a walk, day care, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I would be thrilled to be that safe person for them while you’re away. I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I am able to give your pup my undivided attention. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priority. Dogs will have separate meal times to relieve any meal-time stress. They are also welcome on the furniture for relaxing time and/or snuggle time ☺️. I live in an apartment with multiple spacious, fenced-in grass areas for pups! My apartment is very dog friendly and they provide many different dog spaces for pups to enjoy and socialize if wanted. For dogs staying in our home, I also have a 7 month old pup! Her name is Isla and she is the sweetest pup. She LOVES snuggle time, but also loves to play! She has already traveled a lot at an early age as a service dog, so she is a very well trained pup. I’m excited for her to create a bond with your dog and become life-long buddies! 🐾 I’m excited to meet and discuss how I can create a safe space for your dog! I’m thrilled become a reliable companion for your pup! I work from home with a very flexible schedule! I work on my own time, so I can help with your pup whenever you need ☺️ In my home I have a safe and open apartment space. My complex also has an outdoor yard space for pets along with many walking spots near by! There are gated outdoor areas as well for the pups!
“Taylor was great! Our dogs can be a little tricky, but she did great with them! She was very punctual, provided lots of information after each visit, and made sure to keep us updated!”
“Diana is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had! She is so thoughtful with the pups and goes above and beyond with her care for them. We won’t use anyone else to take care of our pups.”
“Jadon did an amazing job caring for my two cats while I was away. He consistently sent photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel like I could truly trust him with my pets and my home. What stood out the most was seeing how comfortable my cats were with him in the pictures. They're usually selective about people, and it was obvious that they trusted him and felt safe in his care. I would absolutely recommend Jadon to anyone. He’s truly reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy.”
“Lorissa did an amazing job! Gave good updates and reviews of their behavior during walks and drop in visits while i was out of town. She took plenty of pictures to show how they were doing during their walks and once they were back inside eating and playing!”
“We greatly appreciated Teresa’s flexibility and communication! Georgie tripped off a curb and looked like she may have hurt her paw, Teresa spent the extra time needed to make sure she was ok; we are grateful for that.”
“Aleksandra was absolutely amazing! She was on time, very communicative, and went above and beyond for our pups! One of our pups can be shy around new people, but he warmed up to her very quickly. Would highly recommend her to everyone and anyone looking for pet care. Will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future :)”
About: I’ve had friends, family, and neighbors check on their cats and dogs since I was around 8 years old. I bell trained my puppy for potty training along with the basics such as sit, down, wait, and more. I’ve also administered medications and performed physical therapy exercises for my pet and others. I work from home with a flexible schedule so I’m able to make just about any check-in time work. I prefer to visit mornings and evenings if possible. I have a fenced in yard and large crate for at home care. When I visit I’m happy to give your pets lots of attention, cuddles, and play time.
“Alyssa is the best, she was so thorough and patient with our new rescue dog who was a little nervous while we were away for the first time. Dependable, communicative, and cares so much about our pets. Highly recommend!”

Olivia is such a great person and so kind! She watched my cat for a little over a week, and she was absolutely amazing! She took great care of my cat and kept me updated while I was away! My cat was happy and well cared for when I got home. I would definitely recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Adrienne was absolutely incredible! Her report cards were so detailed and she sent so many photos of my baby. She was excited to care for my rabbit which is not something everyone would feel comfortable doing. From the photos I could tell Fiona May loved her. She came right up to her and even sat near her. I felt extremely at ease on my trip knowing she was being cared for by Adrienne and already booked with her again! She’s amazing!
Veronika was so great with my rabbit! She was always on time and sent me her report card and photos. It was so wonderful to find someone who was willing to care for a rabbit. I really appreciated being able to feel so comfortable going away knowing she was caring for Fiona May
⭐️⭐️ROYAL ROVER STATUS⭐️⭐️ The Princesses Penny and Poppy would like it formally entered into the royal record that Anthony was an absolute treasure. When I had to leave on a last-minute work trip, Anthony came to attend to them whisker and paw **three whole times in less than 24 hours! As my little sister said **. He was reliable, kind, communicative, and incredibly attentive to their needs. Most impressively, Anthony accomplished what is not easily achieved with my rescue kittens: he got the girls to willingly come to him and even received physical affection. Photographic proof exists, so this was not a rumor, bribery, or wishful thinking. That level of trust says everything. He respected their personalities, made sure they were safe and cared for, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Knowing they were in such good hands made a stressful last-minute trip feel so much easier. Princess’s Poppy and Penny would like it known that Sir Anthony has officially earned the Princesses’ approval and has been promoted to trusted royal caretaker. We will absolutely book him again.
I highly recommend booking with Grace! She was very kind, quick to respond to any messages, and most importantly took great care of our dogs. It’s very evident that Grace loves animals and has a passion for being around them. The biggest ringing endorsement I can give is that one of our dogs does not like most people, but she immediately LOVED and trusted Grace.
I cannot recommend my pet sitter highly enough! From the very beginning, she was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring toward my pets. She provided regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. What impressed me most was the attention and affection she showed. It was clear that my pets were not just being watched—they were being cared for like family. She was attentive to their routines, needs, and personalities, and I came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless home. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and truly passionate about animals, look no further. I would gladly book with her again and recommend her to anyone who wants exceptional care for their pets. Five stars all the way!
We are so grateful for Rachel ! We had a last minute booking and she was super communicative about availability and flexibility with our fur babies. She was always updating us on how they were doing during her check ins. Razor and Blueberry absolutely loved her and felt very comfortable with her specially when she brought them some treats!! We will definitely be reaching out again:)
Jadon did an amazing job caring for my two cats while I was away. He consistently sent photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel like I could truly trust him with my pets and my home. What stood out the most was seeing how comfortable my cats were with him in the pictures. They're usually selective about people, and it was obvious that they trusted him and felt safe in his care. I would absolutely recommend Jadon to anyone. He’s truly reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy.
I’m reviewing again after a month of her watching my dog 2-3 days a week because Christal deserves ALL the praise. I genuinely couldn’t ask for a better person to care for my dog when I’m at work. She plays with him, gets him to go potty, feeds him by hand which is so funny, she responds insanely quick, suggests things I should get for my dog, sends me TONS of photos from every visit…in short she does a FANTASTIC job. If you need someone to watch your fur baby while you’re away Christal is the person to ask.
