“Emma was very responsive and sent plenty of photos. She listened to whatever my pets needs were and made sure they were taken care of properly. When i go out of town again I will be sure to look to Emma to watch my fur babies and know i won't have any worries when I'm away.”

“What a relief to go on vacation and have Erin and Anthony watching our dog! They were always incredibly punctual and provided multiple photos with each drop-in. Erin is not afraid to text with clarifying questions instead of just assuming, which is great when our dog has medications managing a condition. Best dog sitters around!”

“Sara has been great with my corgi, Cersei! She is always on time and has been incredibly flexible with my schedule. She is also very considerate with Cersei and accommodating to her needs for the past few months and Cersei loves her. She will continue to be my go-to whenever I need someone to help with Cersei.”

“Anne Marie was incredible! She was timely and kept us up to date with photos and notes every time she visited with our dog. Would recommend her to anyone!”

“We booked Leesa last minute to check in on our dogs so that we could go away for an overnight trip. We haven’t used a sitter outside of our family in a long time, but we’re happy to say that our boys have a new friend! We will definitely be booking Leesa for future trips!”

“Bradley did a wonderful job taking care of my cat when I was gone; he took lots of great pics too! Communication was great! Will definitely have Bradley take care of my fur baby when I am traveling in the future too!”

“Britany has been so reliable and does a great job with our cats. She spends time with them playing and makes them feel comfortable while we are away. I would suggest anyone in the area use Britany for your pet needs.”

“Alyson was amazing and our doggies can’t wait for their next visit. We really enjoyed the updates and photos! And Alyson was very detailed with our specific dog needs. Thank you Alyson!!”
“I Highly recommend Abbi, she is very kind and understanding! I know she took good care of my kitties and they both loved her. Even the one who usually doesn’t come put for people let her hold him and cuddle.”

“Haley was able to watch our dogs last minute, and she was absolutely wonderful! Her communication was prompt and thorough, giving me complete confidence that our dogs were in good hands. Highly recommend!!”

She gets back to me about availability quickly and is communicative while she's with my dog, sending lots of updates and pictures! I always worry when I’m away from my pet but I feel that he is totally safe and happy in her care and I plan to continue using her for drop-in visits whenever she is available. I highly recommend Elisa if you want someone who is professional, kind, prompt, and sweet to your fur baby!”

About: I have a huge passion for animals of all types. I will be attentive to your dog's individual needs from dietary to exercise. If there is a specific diet program please leave detailed instructions or provide a demonstration upon meeting. I have owned and taken care of many dogs in the last 12 yrs including staying overnight with a puppy under 6mos and dog sitting 2 great danes. I enjoy playing with dogs, taking them on walks, being there for cuddles, or simply providing comfort for their anxiety. Every dog is an individual so I will tailor a plan for your dog accordingly. I have a variety of availability and am prompt to alert to changes. I am great at training and maintaining training routines. I'm currently working a flexible semi remote job. Depending on the needs of the dog(s) I can adjust certain times of my week to accommodate special cases. I can care for pets at your home. My beagle girl is skittish around other dogs and trained with an e fence perimeter. I have dog sat and house sat for friends, family, and unrelated new acquaintances. I have a safe and nurturing spirit combined with a strong enough presence that dogs respect without my need to raise my voice.

Valerie is the best!! She looks out for the dogs and their home. When our 95-lb boy drank his water too fast and proceeded to expel the contents of his stomach to the floor, she stayed behind to clean up the mess and make sure he was okay. She has been a huge blessing for us.

Alyson did an amazing job taking care of our two cats, Davinci and Snickers, while I was traveling for work. She communicated consistently and sent pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She made sure they were fed, their litter box was clean, and they always had fresh water in their fountain. She also brought in my mail and spent time playing with them. I’m very grateful for the excellent care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!

Shaelyn is amazing. My dog is “not great” with new people but she has gone out of her way to establish a great relationship with him. She has helped us learn how to support his behavior and he has been happier since meeting her. On the human end, it is a delight to have her stop in and I literally think I would be content to hire her just to visit me as she is a nice person to have drop in on a day. She is willing to engage my child who always looks forward to seeing her also. When in went away for a week it really made my time smooch better knowing I didn’t have to worry about the dog and cats at all because I had full faith she would take better care of than than I do. So kind and trustworthy- couldn’t recommend more as a pet-sitter or as a person!

As a first time Rover user, I was a bit apprehensive about being away from my kitty for the first time. Brooke quickly put those concerns to rest with her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
