About: I've had dogs in my family for over 30 years and cats for over 10 years! Animals should be treated with kindness and love because that's what they give us. I understand the time and attention that new pets require as well as the gentle and caring touch that all pets deserve. I've always been my friend's dog sitter and own two cats of my own. I'm a teacher so I will be free for most of the summer during the week. I enjoy the outdoors so would love to take your dog for a walk and also care for your cat or dog indoors. I've never had a fish but would happily check in on those water babies as well! At this time, I am not able to board your cat or dog in my apartment as I have two cats of my own. Thanks.
“Emily and Tyler are wonderful people who took great care of my old baby while I was away. I am new to the area and needed a pet sitter I can trust. Would definitely book them again! Thanks so much :)”
“Molly was fantastic on time quick to respond and most of all our pup Pumpkin LOVES her. We definately will be using her again when we can't take our furry baby with us. her again”
“Ethan provided compassionate and attuned care for my life Roo! I felt fully trusting of Ethan and his care skills. I will absolutely book with him again.”
About: I've been a lifelong cat companion and caregiver, having raised and nurtured them since I was young. Over time, I've also bonded with my cousins' and friends' dogs, learning their unique needs and quirks while helping with everything from daily care to playtime. Whether it's a playful pup or a curious cat, I genuinely enjoy keeping tails wagging and whiskers happy. Since I currently work remotely, my schedule is wide open for pet sitting and dog walking— whether it’s a midday stroll or an overnight cuddle session. With a little heads-up, I’m happy to help with house sitting, too. Caring for animals isn’t just a part of my day — it’s something I truly look forward to. In my home, I’m the go-to comfort zone for my two cats — they always come to me for cuddles, calm, and of course, their meals. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I create that same sense of safety and familiarity. My friends’ dogs naturally stick close to me, whether we’re relaxing or out for a walk, because I make sure they feel secure, heard, and happy. Whether it’s your place or mine, I treat every pet like family — with patience, gentleness, and attention to their unique needs.

“Book him now! He’s the best with my two kitties Luna and Stella. Takes amazing photos (seriously better than some of my own!). I can tell they are super happy with him! I come back and they are relaxed and content.”
“Excellent care for our doggies. They were all up for play time when we got home because Phelan had set their expectations high with her energy! Lol”
“Grace is a wonderful pet sitter that is reliable and trustworthy. Would definitely book again!”
“Christina was amazing with out two cats! We have one shy/nervous kitty and it was clear that she took extra time with her because she quickly warmed up to Christina! She was also very thoughtful and kind in the way that she took care of our cats, which made our time away so much more relaxing. I would love to have Christina watch our cats again the next time we go away!”

Kendra sent pictures everyday of my two cats and updated me everyday I highly recommend her she is very sweet! Came home to my cats well taken care of and she also fed my fish!
Sara just took care of my very shy cat, Zoe, for two weeks. She sent pictures and Zoe warmed right up to her. This was my first experience with Rover and I was very pleased. If I am going out of town again I will definitely book with Sara.
Erin did a great job checking on my kitty and was very sweet in spending time with her and giving her attention.
I can always count on Kaitlyn to go above and beyond expectations. She made sure Kittie was well taken care of, gave get lots of attention, and even vacuums and cleans up the litter that falls out of the box without prompting. She does it on her own which days a lot. I fully trust her and feel confident my animals are taken care of and loved on when she's there!
