“Nicol was great. I felt very comfortable leaving our dog and cat with her. She was very caring and showed up on time. Ginger and Mau are usually shy, they were not with her.”

“AJ was very kind to accommodate a same day request. He is communicative, punctual, and took the time to write a thorough report card with lots of pictures. Thank you for taking such great care of our pup!”

“Jennifer was phenomenal! I was so impressed and grateful for her assistance with Autumn &Axel. I had a pretty unexpected week that resulted in a longer trip away and needed someone to care for my pups on short notice. She was accommodating and understanding during emergency situations. I trusted my babies were in great hands and didn’t have additional concerns. All I can say is above and beyond for this sitter! Would book again at anytime!”

“Lindsey did a great job. She was on time and returned our texts and calls almost immediately. Barkley loved her. We were first time users of a pet sitter and Lindsey exceeded our expectations. As nervous pet parents, Lindsey put our minds to rest by sending pictures and updates of how Barkley was doing through out our time away. We will definitely use her again as Barkley's sitter.”

“Tina was great with my two cats. She was very attentive to details which I really appreciated and provided good notes and pics for each visit. I will definitely rebook.”

“Arianne was wonderful to meet and my cats immediately took to her. She left me feeling like they were in good hands, and they were! She was great with communication and keeping me updated. Will definitely be working with her in the future!”

“Emma was consistently reliable and amazing at communication. She always spent the full time with our animals and truly showed trust and professionalism you want to see in someone in your home would absolutely recommend her.”

“Great experience with Emma ! She was on time, reliable, and took great care of our two dogs and cat. She was even able to get our usually anxious dog comfortable enough to go outside, which meant a lot to us. Thank you”


“Aliyah was very good with my lil guy. This is my first time using Rover so I was on edge about using it. However she kept communication open, sent pictures, and played with my dog. I definitely would recommend her to others.”

“Alina is reliable and she is great with Pablo. She treats him like family and cares for him exceptionally. She communicates promptly and openly. She’s a trusted sitter and someone I know I can count on to care for my baby.”

“Annalise was great! She took care of my cats while I was away and gave me peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and sent thoughtful updates with photos after every visit. It was clear she genuinely cared about them and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after.”


About: I grew up taking care of puppies and dogs of all types. I tend to gravitate in any situation towards animals first. While I have no formal training in dog training, I have learned quite a bit throughout my years. My schedule sometimes varies through out the week but it is 99% night shifts, so 3pm until about midnight at the latest. I am available anytime during the day. I live alone with just my 4 year old cat in a decently sized 1 bedroom apartment. I am on the second floor with no elevator. I will be very respectful to your home and your pets, just as I expect someone to be in my home. I pay attention to details and will make sure to take great care of your fur babies.
“Kailia was so nice and flexible with her schedule. We made our booking last minute and made a further last minute reservation change. Kailia stepped up and really made our time away from home feel special as we knew we had someone truly reliable to take care of our girl.”

About: I have hands-on experience working as a veterinary technician, which gave me valuable experience handling animals, recognizing signs of stress or discomfort, and assisting with daily pet care needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, including energetic puppies and senior pets who may need extra patience and attention. As someone planning to continue pursuing veterinary medicine, I truly care about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive to routines and instructions, and I treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already have a flexible schedule and a strong background working with animals. I’m typically available before and after my classes/work shifts, as well as on weekends, which allows me to consistently provide morning, midday, and evening care depending on your pet’s needs. Because I previously worked as a vet tech for, I’m used to structuring my day around animal care responsibilities like feeding schedules, medication times, walks, and monitoring behavior. I’m organized and good at planning ahead, so I can easily adjust my routine to make sure each pet gets reliable, on-time care and attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication, walk routines, and any specific behavioral or medical needs. My experience as a vet tech has helped me stay calm and observant, so I can quickly notice if something seems off with a pet’s behavior or health. I also make sure the home stays secure by double-checking doors, gates, and leashes during walks. I respect the client’s space by keeping things clean, organized, and exactly as I found them. Most importantly, I focus on making pets feel comfortable and stress-free by giving them patience, attention, and a calm presence while their owners are away.
About: Hi! I have taken care of pets since I was ten. I have had my own dogs my whole life so I am well experienced. I am studying in college right now but I have free time during the week so it fits into my schedule. I am an early riser and can stay up late if I need to check in! I make sure the pet is comfortable with me always and not butting in their space! I wanna make them feel as welcome as possible with me!
“Ariella took great care of our very shy and anxious dog Maddie. She was patient and sweet with our girl and even spent extra time during her visits with Maddie to help her feel more comfortable. Will definitely use her in the future!”

“Bethany was so great with my babies! She went above and beyond taking care of them and is very communicative. She provided very thorough updates after every check in. Highly recommend booking her if you need a great sitter!”

Nicol was AMAZING while watching our two cats! 🐱🐱 My partner and I had never used this platform before, so we were honestly pretty anxious about it at first. After meeting Nicol, all of that anxiety completely disappeared. She took the time to explain everything, from how the visits are updated through the app to when we would receive notifications when each visit started and ended. She even went the extra mile by picking up our key before the scheduled visits and dropping it off afterward, working around our schedule to make everything as convenient as possible. Throughout our entire trip, Nicol showed an incredible sense of reliability, responsibility, and communication. She was always prompt, kept us updated, and made us feel completely reassured that our cats were in great hands. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be rebooking with Nicol in the future! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and caring. ❤️

Arianne is a phenomenal sitter. She took care of my two cats and even used her veterinary experience to help treat one of their wounds. If you want a sitter who is understanding and knowledgeable about your pets needs, I recommend hiring Arianne! I felt at ease on my vacation knowing my cats were in her care.

Lindsay is so wonderful with our Chiweenie. She even brought a game for her to play with and we ended up buying the same one for her. She spent almost a week and a half 3x a day and we knew our doggy was in great hands through the whole time. Thanks again for your love and care! 🥰

Meghan was absolutely wonderful with Livy. Before her scheduled visits, she took the time to come by for a meet-and-greet and carefully learn Livy's routine. She really went above and beyond to make sure she understood Livy's needs and that everything would be as comfortable as possible. Unfortunately, Livy decided she wasn't particularly interested in making a new friend—we recently moved and she is out of character. Meghan handled it with so much patience, kindness, and good humor. She even joked that Livy reminded her of Miranda Priestly from The Devil Wears Prada, which honestly couldn't have been more accurate and gave us all a good laugh. Regardless of Livy's icy demeanor Meghan knows that she has modeled for brands so she made us a photo of Livy on a magazine cover!!! It was included with the most beautiful thank you note; please do not thank me; THANK YOU for everything that you did! Throughout the entire experience, Meghan was thoughtful, communicative, and clearly cared about providing the best possible care. Even if your pet is a little aloof or has a big personality like ours, you can trust that Meghan will treat them with patience and compassion. We're so grateful for everything she did and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her! I am not sure how 'Miranda Priestly' feels but I sure hope that Meghan will return!!!

I can’t even begin to express how amazing Joyce is! We’ve trusted her with our dogs twice now; first in January 2025 for my wedding and again in July 2026 for vaycay and I would absolutely book her again! We have four dogs: a Pomeranian, two Black Labs, and a Pit Bull. Three of them are over 50 pounds, so leaving them with anyone can be nerve wracking. I was especially worried they wouldn’t remember her after so much time had passed, but the second they saw Joyce, they were beyond excited! It was obvious they remembered and loved her. One of my favorite things about Joyce is that I never have to wonder how my babies are doing. She sends videos, pictures, and updates throughout our trip, which gives me so much peace of mind. While I’m enjoying my vacation, I get to see my dogs having the best time running around, playing fetch, and getting so much love and attention. She’s also incredibly knowledgeable about dog health. One of my dogs constantly licks his paw until it creates a wound, and Joyce shared some natural remedies for my poor guy. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets like they’re her own, keep you updated, and genuinely care about their well being, Joyce is the one. We absolutely adore her, and so do our dogs!

Jordan was amazing as always! She took great care of our new puppy and our cat who she has cared for before. She is great at communicating and takes amazing pictures to let us know everything is going well. I can’t recommend her enough, we can tell our pets love her too!

Love love love Marie!!! She was so attentive and sweet with my cat, Sushi. She made sure to keep me updated, sent me pictures, and tidy up the house in the smallest ways! You can tell she loves being with animals and that she knows exactly what she’s doing. We can’t wait to see her again!

Brooklyn was a great pet sitter! She followed all of my instructions to a T, checked in on my cat, and tried to play with her as much as she could. She took care to go above and beyond what was asked of her, which I really appreciated. I will definitely book with Brooklyn again if she is available the next time I am out of town!
