“Chloe was able to help me out on short notice and was flexible with changes that occurred. Puddin was super bummed to see me walk through the door and not Chloe! Puddin and I will gladly schedule Chloe again!”


“I literally cannot say enough good things about Maricella! She took such great care of our four pups…. And they can be a handful, which is why I had been a little hesitant about using Rover in general. But she definitely calmed any hesitations and she took care of our furbabies like they were her own. They truly loved hanging out with her and I appreciated all her feedback and pictures!! In addition, she went above and beyond and brought in some packages and kept everything so neat and tidy. I hope to work with her again in the future. Thank you soo sooo much, Maricella!!”


About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. I have watched older dogs who needed daily medicine and high energy dogs who need frequent walks. With 2 cat fur babies myself I love animals! I moved to the area recently so my days are free whenever you need me to drop in and give them the attention they need! I am very attentive so I will be sure to notice anything out of the sort and unfamiliar. I also love to play, pet, and interact with pets so that they are getting attention and love while their family is away.

About: My passion for animals started very young! Growing up my family had an exotic animal farm! I’ve cared for every animal from dogs and cats to goats, zebras, camels and everything in between! I’ve also volunteered at multiple pet shelters in my adulthood and am always the go to person to pet sit for family and friends! Your baby’s health and happiness is my number 1 priority and I promise to provide them the same love, affection, protection, and respect you would! I currently work from home full time and have a very flexible schedule to be able to drop in often, stay with them for a while and work from my phone, or take on a nice walk! Overnight stays in your home during the week or weekend available! At my home I have a fenced in yard or could crate your animal if you prefer. Animals are allowed on the furniture here because they are family too! At your house I am a guest in their home and will treat them the exact same way you would! Maybe a few more treats!

About: I have always loved dog.! I love to see the different personalities each dog has! I believe dogs are family and not just pets. They bring us joy and deserve a loving & fun home. I know how stressful it can be leaving them with someone & it’s my goal to alleviate some of that stress! I have dealt with many types from calm to those who have anxiety. I work from home full time & I’m home most weekends. I can offer plenty of potty breaks, belly rubs and playing fetch throughout the day! I have a big fenced in backyard with a spunky lab mix who is always looking for a new fur friends to play with. We plenty of room inside for lounging and relaxing!

About: I have a genuine love for dogs of all ages and personalities. I treat every dog like my own—with kindness, respect, and lots of belly rubs. I currently work part time, so I have time during the days to play with your 4 legged family members. I structure my schedule around my visits and walks, making sure I have the time and energy to give each pet the attention they deserve. In-home pet care is something I take seriously and enjoy —it’s not just a side job, it's an important part of my weekly routine. I structure my schedule to prioritize the comfort, safety, and happiness of the pets in my care, especially when I'm staying in their home. I maintain their regular routines—feeding, walks, playtime, and quiet time—so they feel secure and relaxed, even when their family is away. I treat your home with the same respect I treat your pets, keeping things tidy, clean, and stress-free. My goal is to make sure your pet has companionship, consistency, and lots of love while you're gone.

“Brittany and Gary were amazing! They are professional, friendly and very accommodating. They are timely and were also so great with our 2 dogs. I will definitely book with them again!”


“Krysta took good care of my 2 cats for a full week and even took care of watering my plants for me! She sent updates on any changes that might have occurred between visits; I always knew that my animals were safe and well taken care of. So glad she was here to take care of them while I was away.”


About: I’m not sure what might set me apart from others; I do know that there are no “bad dogs,” they just need a little more attention. Perhaps I may be someone who can help. I think it varies, meaning if we all had a standard way to fit pet care into our schedule, this site wouldn’t be needed. Basically, it’s a case by case basis. As simple as it may sound, it’s like having a 5 year old child with you; you must always pay attention, and you must always keep them engaged with an activity.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have cared for many of my own over the years. I understand pets are family, and I’m committed to giving them the love, attention, and comfort they deserve while you’re away. I treat every animal like my own and am always excited to meet new furry friends! I’m a college student with three online classes this fall, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my days around pet care and am available as early as needed. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I’ll always treat your pets like family—because that’s what they are. Whether in your home or mine, I create a safe, loving, and calm environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. My own pets mean the world to me, and I’ll give yours the same respect, attention, and affection.

About: In my opinion, genuine love, personalized care, and a fun personality ensuring that every pet feels safe, happy, and cherished as if they were my own As a part-time head volleyball coach, my flexible training schedule allows me to dedicate mornings, evenings, and off-days to giving pets the consistent, attentive care they deserve I follow your pet’s normal routine; such as feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles—while keeping your home tidy, secure, and filled with comfort in your absence

“Consistent, on time, great communication - Our pup doesn’t play fetch with just anyone so Renee is def one one of a kind! Our extended visits are coming to an end but we were very lucky to have Renee! She was even able to make a last min drop in visit due to our trip being delayed!”


About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my genuine love for dogs combined with specialized skills in puppy training and senior dog care. I understand that every dog has unique needs, whether it's helping a young pup learn basic commands or providing extra comfort and care for a senior dog with special health considerations. With experience in both training and tending to older dogs, I tailor my approach to each dog’s personality and requirements, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and engaged. Whether it's reinforcing training habits, administering medication, or simply offering a calm presence, I provide a level of care that goes beyond basic sitting—it's about building a relationship based on trust, attention, and personalized care. With open availability, I can dedicate time to play, walk, and fully attend to your pet’s needs, ensuring they receive the care and attention they deserve. I provide personalized care, offering a safe, comfortable environment in your home or mine, with attention to play, feeding, exercise, and companionship tailored to your pet.

“I am so grateful to Tammy for coming to my home to help with my big Lab who is too reactive around other dogs to take to a groomer. She is always so gentle and makes it easy to get his nails trimmed.”


“Grace was fantastic!! Very attentive throughout, even caring for our plants while we were gone. Came home to some happy puppies :) We felt very comfortable leaving our pups in her hands!”


“Bailey is great. She is so sweet with the kitties and so informative with what she did that visit. It’s so helpful to be on vacation and know a complete rockstar of a person is making sure my babies are taken care of. Bailey is the easiest Rover to recommend because of her amount of care she has for animals.”

Layni T.
“Layni has been such a blessing to our family. She provides such loving care to our dog Teddy. We have found Layni to be reliable, communicative and capable of taking such good care of Teddy. I especially appreciate how thoughtful she is in updating us on his care while we are away and exhibits responsibility of ensuring any medications are given, walking and playing with him and keeping him company while we are away.

My dog came back relaxed, well-exercised, and clearly adored his time with him. I couldn’t recommend Tali enough—he’s the kind of sitter every dog owner hopes to find!”
