“Sara did an awesome job! We like to have someone come and play our little kitty when we travel for a few days so that she gets some interaction. Sara did a great job ensuring the food and water bowl were full and also provided pics. She took fun pics of our furry friend which my wife absolutely loves to see. Sara wrote great reports each time she checked in on Ditto. Overall very happy with her attention to detail. We also had several large packages delivered and Sara was able to get those inside for us! Such a blessing!”
“Tanya is extremely professional, has a great memory, very reliable, and is super patient with new animals. She watched our three cats while we were out of town for the week and gave them some company. On first meeting her, she asked great questions regarding personality types and general instructions, and talked us through her soft approach to meeting our animals. She assured us that she’d devote her whole reserved time to sitting with them and letting them get to know her presence. Her notes were thorough and reassuring. We were very happy with her and even our shy cats liked her and allowed her pets. Would highly recommend.”
“Emily was really good! I had an issue with my previous sitter and needed someone else to come check on my pets while I was already on vacation and she picked it up last minute and I appreciate it so much!”
“Isabella was wonderful, I showed up late from my original drop off time and she was very understanding. I was also provided some towels to clean up a bit of a kitty mess made on the car ride over there which I really appreciated. Absolutely would recommend her to watch your pets if needed. ✨”
“Steffanie did a wonderful job! She was great communicating with and sent me photos of my fur babies to ease my mind! My dogs loved her and I will definitely hire her again!! :) thank you so much Steffanie!!”
“Becky was absolutely amazing! I will be using her again in the future! Not only did she watch my three cats but she also took great care of my two ferrets! 10 out 10 would absolutely recommend having her watch your animals!”
“Emily was SUPER attentive and very good at communicating. We got a ton of good photos. Our cats litter was perfectly clean and bowls full when we arrived back home. I think they thoroughly enjoyed her popping in for them! Thanks Emily! 🫶🏼”
About: I have loved animals since I was a young child and currently have a mini zoo at my home! I am great with kitties and senior dog care - I love showing your pets the care and affection they need while you're gone. I currently work from home as a researcher so I am more than happy to get some fresh air with some pet cuddles or to check on your little one! I follow strict instructions from the client and will honour whatever they like for their furry babies. Walks with extra long sniffing time? Say less!
“Kacey was a very excellent caregiver to Sophie, as usual! I was able to have so much fun on my vacation knowing Sophie was being well taken care of back home. Sophie appreciated all the pets and treats!!! We will be booking with Kacey again 😊”
“I had an emergency hospitalization and contacted Rover. Jennifer did a great job watching my female Whippet Cinnamon 2 days in a row, playing with her, walking her, feeding her, taking her to the dog park. She took videos & pics. She did everything I asked.”
“Danielle is the very best! This is the 3rd time we've asked her to dogsit Riley, she takes such good care of her! She sends pictures and videos each visit, and Riley absolutely loves her!! ❤️”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s always surrounded by pets, whether it’s my own cats or friends’ dogs. Caring comes naturally to me. For the past five years, I’ve devoted myself full-time to looking after others, from being a caregiver for my son to providing loving, attentive care for pets of all ages and needs. As a retiree, I have the time and flexibility to focus on what I love most, caring for my animals and maintaining a peaceful home. Your pet’s care will always be my top priority, with plenty of time dedicated to their comfort, companionship, and well-being. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. While in my care, they’ll receive my full attention and affection. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood that’s perfect for relaxed, safe dog walks and a calm, stress-free stay.
About: I've been the veterinary industry for over 25 years. My experiences include private practice, mobile shot clinic and specialty hospitals. My experience with animals is more than just health, it is loving and caring for them like if they were my own. I'm at home my schedule is super flexible I can make multiple visits if needed for play and walks. I am available on the weekends as well. My community is pretty safe and extremely pet friendly. We can just hang out at home with several walks or we can make new friends at the dog park.
“They did an AMAZING job with our trio of kitties. They even got our grumpy old cat who doesn’t trust anyone to come around :) I would totally recommend them to anyone. They took care of our kitties as if they were their own and were great about communication and keeping an eye on everything.”
About: I have been involved in working with animals on a providing-care basis since I was around 12 years old. I began through petsitting my neighbors dogs when they would go out of town. When I began college I got a job working at our local petstore which taught me so much more about caring for pets. I have also dedicated plenty of time to volunteering with animal shelters and fostering pets till they find their forever home. Now, I have multiple pets of my own and love any and all pets I have ever come across. I am currently a full time remote employee so I work from home M-F each week 7-4pm. Thankfully, working from home allows for flexibility and time with your pets the majority of the time. I am flexible with scheduling and I am happy to work with you and your pet to meet any needs or requirements that you may have. I currently live in a house with a large fenced in backyard where pets can run and play. I have pets of my own, 2 dogs. They get along great with each other and they all love other animals- cats and dogs alike. I am surrounded by great hiking trails, great parks, and more.

david k.
“David is truly one of the most loving and dedicated animal caretakers I’ve ever met. He’s a lifelong cat owner who always has a house full of happy, well-loved cats — many of them strays he’s taken in, rehabilitated, and given a fresh start in life. He also volunteers his time at a local cat sanctuary, giving even more animals the attention and care they deserve. I have a small dog who absolutely adores David, and I’ve seen firsthand the patience, gentleness, and genuine affection he gives to every animal he meets. His compassion doesn’t stop at cats and dogs — even the horses at his friend’s farm recognize his voice and run over to greet him, knowing he’ll have carrots in hand. David is the rare kind of person who truly loves animals more than anything — in the best, most wholehearted way possible. Any pet in his care will be treated like family.”
