“Kristina and Cameron were absolutely a perfect fit for our girls! We never left one of our pups with a sitter before and our older baby was never left with a "stranger"... our girls were a little disappointed when we returned home because they were so loved and "spoiled" by Kristina and Cameron; I should also add that they are No Longer Strangers, since our girls looked forward to spending their days with their new friends!! Kristina and Cameron cared for Mocha and Lulu as if they were they're own fur babies, made us feel completely comfortable, and updated us each day with a picture of our babies and how the girls were doing. We couldn't have had a better first time experience with Rover and our Sitters!! We will definitely be using Kristina and Cameron again for all our future pet sitting needs!!”
“Katie was absolutely lovely, and the pets got on with her really well. She sent through updates and photos, and made sure we felt comfortable (all on a holiday, too!) -- thank you Katie!”
“Theresa was great with my tiny puppy (14 weeks)! I came home to a very happy and calm pup who had clearly had a wonderful afternoon. Theresa is a real pro - I’m new to this, and she was extremely helpful explaining potty training and leash weights.”
“Zachary was so kind and conscientious of my older dog. Stayed a couple of nights and took great care of my home. Also, I came home to a calm dog and a clean home. He also gave me some great advice on end of life for my 17-year-old boy.”
About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.
“Julia is a very reliable, responsible and considerate dog and house sitter. She has been to my home three times (full 8+ hour days) to care for our active golden lab and each time we return to a calm, happy dog and clean house. She is great at staying in touch, always on time, sends updates if requested and truly enjoys animals. We feel very fortunate to have her time and care. As a dog owner, being able to take some day or overnight trip trips is so much easier knowing Julia and Noah.”
“Julia was fantastic!!! We had great communication from the start, which made me feel oh so comfortable leaving our beloved new puppy in Julia’s very capable and loving hands!! Our puppy adores Julia and we will definitely be having her back to pet sit again. Julia was so lovely and kind every step of the way, and she even found and carefully removed 2 ticks from our little pup. She truly cares!! Thank you, Julia!! Can’t wait to have you back soon :).”
“Wish we could give ten stars! Marisa was so attentive to our dog with special needs and looked after everything at the house. This was the first time in three years we were able to go away without worrying. Such a blessing!”
“Jesse is THE BEST. After requesting the booking, he came out to meet us and our two boys, taking his own personal time to make sure it was a good fit. During his stay, he kept us informed with pictures and notes on the pups. He left our house just as he found it and, most important, we came home to 2 happy, sleepy dogs, tired after a vacation of their own! Jesse is reliable and incredibly knowledgeable and hardworking. Can’t wait to have him back!”
About: I’ve cared for many different animals throughout my life, including mammals, birds, reptiles/amphibians, exotics, farm animals, and wildlife. I’ve cared for pets of friends and family. I have experience with overnight sitting in the pet’s home. I also have experience caring for senior and special needs animals. I spent 6 months as a volunteer at a vet clinic assisting with exams and surgical procedures, and I am currently exploring career paths in animal sciences and wildlife rehabilitation. I have lots of availability to care for your fur babies! I work part-time as a waitress while exploring different careers in the field of animal behavior and sciences. I have the flexibility to accommodate to your schedule and needs. I can be available on most weekends and holidays. I also accept same-day bookings. I prefer to care for animals in their own home where they feel most comfortable. As well as walking in areas they are familiar with. I always make sure to maintain pet safety in the home such as keeping doors/windows/gates shut and keeping hazardous items and toxic plants out of reach or locked away.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I have experience working at a dog daycare and providing pet-sitting services for friends, family, and clients. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and following specific care instructions. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. My goal is to provide peace of mind and quality care for both pets and their families. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I have a flexible schedule and make it a priority to provide reliable, consistent care. Whether your pet needs walks, feeding, playtime, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I will make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. I take the time to build trust with each pet and ensure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I will treat your home with respect and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and responsible hands. 🐾
“Hunter was really accommodating when we got sick while trying to schedule our meet & greet for a last minute trip. She did great with the dogs & allowed us a stress free weekend away!”
About: I’ve always been comfortable with dogs of all types. I grew up with dogs and have spent my whole life around animals, so caring for them feels natural to me. I’m calm, confident, and make sure to adjust to each dog’s individual needs so they feel safe, understood, and well cared for. I work full‑time during the day, but I’m available in the early mornings and evenings to take care of your pet. That gives me plenty of time for feeding, walks, playtime, or whatever they need before and after work. Mondays are my completely open day, so I’m available all day then for longer visits or extra care. My goal is to ensure your pet feels genuinely cared for. I pay close attention to their routine and what they need, and I make sure they stay comfortable, happy, and relaxed the whole time they’re with me.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs on and off for years and I’ve had a couple of my own. Would be happy to host your pet for a day or a few days, whatever your need is. I am fully retired at this time and will have plenty of time to play with and care for your pet. I am available weekdays and nights as well as some weekends. I am also available to watch them at your house as well if you’d prefer. I am happy to follow your feeding schedule and to take your pet for a daily walk. There are no young children or anyone else living in the house except me.
“Angela took great care of our three dogs while we were away for 10 days. They were all comfortable and relaxed with her. She’s gentle and patient and she even taught our littlest wild one some better manners. She sent regular updates and photos. We highly recommend her!”
About: I absolutely love dogs all shapes and sizes, when you book with me your dog will be in a safe and loving environment with me. it’s important to me that any dog i’m with at the time will have a fun and enriching environment with me and the time we’re spending together. I have experience training puppies and pet sitting puppies. I’ve done extended petting sitting stays and have done petting sitting with multiple animals, i’ve done week long stays with 6+ animals, so I can handle a big crew if you have it. I have experience with farm animals and horses as well if that’s ever needed as well! I currently am not working and would love to add some furry friends to my day! I am quite flexible with my timing right now and offer free meet and greets for the safety and benefits of all of us. If you use me for pet sitting you can expect your dog to be fully safe! I will follow your directions and expectations to the tea because I know what it’s like to have to leave your dog with someone and not wanting to have to worry about your loved one
About: Since childhood, friends and neighbors have always relied on me to watch their pets! I grew up with dogs but do not own one now due to housing and have two kitties. I am also experienced with large farm animals and safety when handling and being around them. This translates to dogs as well, for safety we must remember we can never 100% predict an animals behavior. I maintain one part time job aside from home animal care, so we will discuss your custom scheduling! Mornings afternoons evenings or frequent visits for medical reasons can be managed based on your needs! Thank you so much for reading and considering me for services While unable to host pets at my home, I always follow the owners instructions closely and pay attention to detail regarding an animals home turf!! I would never disrespect the animals home and space.

Jesse was simply wonderful. He connected with our dog Woogie immediately, and you could tell that he truly cares about animals. I was in a somewhat urgent need to find a dog sitter who can stay overnight, and Jesse took the time to meet us - and Woogie - beforehand. Woogie loved him right away, and when I got back home, I could tell that he treated Woogie very well, like his own family. He even let her sleep with him in the guest bed (which was likely not too comfortable), but he wanted to do everything to keep Woogie happy. Jesse sent regular updates and photos and left the house like he found it. I cannot say enough good things about him! I highly recommend Jesse - and Woogie does too.

She has been to my home three times (full 8+ hour days) to care for our active golden lab and each time we return to a calm, happy dog and clean house.

Kaleigh and Ri came together as we arranged. They were wonderful with my 2 dogs! Kaleigh kept me in the loop on what they were up to and sent pics and videos along the way. It is very clear from the videos that my dogs bonded with them both and got a lot of attention. My house was in good shape when I returned. All in all, a great experience! I would happily hire Kaleigh again. Sheryl
Ciara housesat for my 6-lb. terrier Tatum for 8 days. This was his first time staying with anyone besides myself or a family friend. She took good care of him and sent pictures everyday so I knew he was safe and well cared for. Tiny dogs have special needs because they can get hurt more easily than big dogs (no slamming doors, no plopping down on the couch blankets, etc.!) and Ciara took all of Tatum's needs into consideration and gave him the love and care that he needed while I was away.
