“This was my first time using Rover since my Vet was booked, I came across Julissa and she was very flexible with my last minute needs and flexible with my drop off and pick up times. She provided updates as needed along with photos of playtime, walks and was very responsive when I wanted to check in on my pup. Hopefully she will let us come back if needed! 😊”
“Very sweet, very accommodating! I'm nervous about leaving my babies with anyone but I was totally comfortable leaving them with Lesa and her husband. I think I missed THEM more than they missed me! It looked like they had a blast! I loved all of the pics and correspondence from Lesa throughout their stay! I felt no need to worry during my trip!”
“Thank you for taking a great care of Marven. We very much appreciated that you sent us pictures of her with an update daily, which helped us feel at ease that Marven was happy and well-taken care of. Thank YOU!!”

“Jennifer and her family have taken such good care of Mowgli twice now. I have a hard time finding sitters that provide Mowgli the structure he needs - primarily downtime. He's suffered a recent injury, so rest was even more important than usual. Jennifer made sure that this young pup didn't overextend himself yet still received all the love in the world.

Cat caregivers near you - Avilla
About: What sets me apart is my understanding that cats are very particular about their space and boundaries. I have experience caring for a very independent, almost feral-leaning cat, so I am comfortable giving cats the time and distance they need to feel safe and in control. At the same time, I love building trust with cats on their terms. I am patient and attentive, and I enjoy those moments when a cat decides they are ready for attention and affection. Whether your cat prefers to observe from a distance or curl up for cuddles, I will meet them where they are and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for.
“Aulelei is so sweet and kind to our babies! She kept us well informed about our cats and sent lots of photos. Our cats seem to really love her, even our shy kitty. We've booked her twice and would definitely book again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of several dogs of varying age, size, energy levels, and shyness. Also have experience with chickens, goats, and pigs and how dogs interact with changes in their environment. I’m free most days, everything that I need to do is on my computer and can be done anytime and anywhere. I’m flexible and can fit into most clients’ schedule. I let them out when they want out, play when they want to play, and clean up any mess so that the client comes back to a just as clean or cleaner house and pets
“Amanda was absolutely phenomenal! I was so worried about leaving my babies at home for a last-minute trip, as some of them are a little skittish, but within the first day or so, they all warmed up to her and were waiting for her cuddles and attention. I can’t recommend her enough — she went above and beyond, and comes with plenty of experience with both cats and dogs with varying temperaments. 🐶🐈⬛🐕🐾 (She also sent lots of great photos!)”

“Fantastic!! I trust my animal's judgement in people and it was spot on! Very professional with a warm personal touch. Loved on max, excellent communication each time with very clear pictures and videos. We even forget to take out the trash before we left and she wad kind enough to take it out and put it by the road! Michelle is a wonderful fur-babysitter and we will be using her services again.”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and currently have two dogs of my own, Domino and Hazel, who have taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and the importance of a good routine.

I follow the pet owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and any special requirements. I pay close attention to pets during walks and visits to ensure they remain safe and comfortable!

I currently have a chihuahua/beagle mix so I am well versed in hyper dogs. I am in graduate school but when I am not in class I would love to meet your fur baby/babies! Let me take the stress of a hectic schedule off of your shoulders by making sure your fur babies are taken care of. Safety is my main priority. Before walking or visiting your fur babies I would love to know what their favorite things are and how you comfort them in order to make this a safe and fun experience for everyone.

“Absolutely wonderful home for our dog. She always has a great time with other pups in the house. Feels happy to see loads of pictures when you are away from your dog.”
“Marci is great! I’m a travel nurse and I got stuck at work a snowstorm. Marci was super accommodating and my pups were well cared for while I was away. Thanks!”
“This was my first time using Rover since my Vet was booked, I came across Julissa and she was very flexible with my last minute needs and flexible with my drop off and pick up times. She provided updates as needed along with photos of playtime, walks and was very responsive when I wanted to check in on my pup. Hopefully she will let us come back if needed! 😊”

“Amber is our go to for pet sitting! She is always so accommodating for drop off/pick up and never fails to give us updates on our pup while we are gone. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Kalina and her family took great care of our pup and sent many updates and pictures. He was sad to leave! Definitely recommend Kalina to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Jackie and his family were amazing sitters! They took great care of our dog, Barry. He updated us daily with pictures. He truly treats the dogs he watches as family. I never had any concerns leaving Barry with Jackie! 🐶”
“Dominique was a fabulous and very responsive host! We can definitely tell our baby enjoyed his time and was well cared for! We will definitely trust Dominique again when we’re in town!”
“Madi was great with our baby boy! She sent pics and is quick to respond to any messages! He had a great time playing with Madi's dog! He is worn out and been napping since we got home! Thank You Madi for taking such great care of our boy! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Jennifer and her family have taken such good care of Mowgli twice now. I have a hard time finding sitters that provide Mowgli the structure he needs - primarily downtime. He's suffered a recent injury, so rest was even more important than usual. Jennifer made sure that this young pup didn't overextend himself yet still received all the love in the world. She was totally capable of meeting Mowgli's high-maintenance needs: rest, supplements, oral/topical meds, and dental hygiene. I look forward to future visits when he's healed enough to play with the other pups in the house!!! I can't thank this family enough💕”
“Charlene and her family took such good care of my little man. House was clean with nice backyard. She kept me posted with photos. I will definitely book her again. Can’t recommend her highly enough.”
“Kenzie eased our anxiety about leaving our one year old pup. This was our first time to use Rover and we we really appreciate her daily updates and pictures and videos. She was very responsive and we look forward to asking her to pup sit for us again”
“They were very accommodating to a very short notice overnight boarding. They sent me updates and pictures throughout Piper’s stay and she was very happy and tired whenever I picked her up. If I’m in the area again, I’ll definitely be contacting them. 😊”
“This was the first time I left my 2 boys with Ashtin and I would come back to her for taking care of my puppies every time. My boys were so well taken care of. Ashtin is very responsive and accommodating. She sends tons of pictures and updates throughout the day. We came back to very happy and content puppies. They were loved throughout their stay at Ashtin’s house and I can tell that they found a second home there.”
About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for high-needs, large-breed dogs. I’ve owned and managed a giant breed with specific behavioral and care needs, so I understand how to handle dogs that require extra patience, structure, and attention. I am very comfortable reinforcing training, including basic commands, boundaries, and consistency with routines. I know how important it is to maintain the rules and expectations you’ve set for your pet, not undo them. I am also attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs, whether that means providing calm companionship, structured activity, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine primarily on weekends, when I have the time to provide focused, attentive care. I already structure my days around caring for my own pets, so I am very comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, routines, and giving pets the attention they need. Because I work full time and attend school during the week, my availability is limited to weekends for dogs but can do daily cat drop-ins. During that time, I am reliable, consistent, and able to give pets quality care through drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and check-ins. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on maintaining consistency with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I also make sure pets get attention and interaction, not just the basics, so they feel comfortable while you’re away. In my home, I provide a structured but relaxed environment. My own dog follows a routine with scheduled feeding, playtime, and rest, including crate time for sleeping, so I am comfortable maintaining similar routines for other dogs if needed. Dogs in my care have time to be active, as well as space to rest and feel secure. I am also experienced with administering daily medications and am comfortable caring for pets with additional needs. Whether I am in your home or mine, my goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible.
