“Chewie seems to have really enjoyed her time with Nicole and her family. We received pictures and quick responses to our messages, which re-assured us that everything was going smoothly. Great experience!”
“AMAZING at her job. We had a situation where we needed our Uncles dog watched for 30 days and we found Melissa. She did an amazing job and even helped put Tiny on a diet. We felt very safe knowing Tiny was in good hands 🙌🏻 Highly recommend her !!!!!!!!”
“Ilona took great care of my two dogs at the last minute! I usually prefer to do a meet and greet, but circumstances didn’t give me time to do that, and still I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She responded quickly to any text and sent pictures. She has a great fully fenced-in backyard that I could tell they loved in the pictures!”
“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”
“Ophelia had a wonderful stay with Dmitriy and Svitlana and their family. They are very comfortable with dogs and understanding dog behaviors. We got lots of pictures of her out and about, and Ophelia came home very happy and relaxed, she clearly got great exercise and care. Will definitely book again!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Tiffany & her husband. From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to make sure my fur baby felt safe, loved, and cared for while I was away. Not only did they follow every instruction perfectly, but they also took extra time to give my pup walks, pool-time , and plenty of affection. Thank you again! 🐶 🐾”
“Skylar was an absolute dream - she was flexible with my changing schedule and sent adorable updates regularly. Bear returned home in wonderful shape - he had a great time! Will definitely stay with her again.”
“Kristin was a great caregiver for our 11 year old dog who tends to be very anxious when she’s in a new environment. She was very caring and nurturing with our girl and sent us updates and pictures while we were away. We highly recommend her to care for your fur baby!”
“I am extremely particular as to who I leave my dogs with and I had an immediate comfort level the first moment I met Cliff and Kathryn. They are truly dog lovers and loved on my girls like they were their own. It was obvious by the daily pictures & videos I received :) They are genuine, kind people and my dogs came home so well cared for and happy!! Now I can have a piece of mind & not stress out when planning a trip that is not pet friendly. So Thankful !!! :)”
“Irina is so nice and her dog Sugar is a sweetheart. I got lots of pictures and updates which I really appreciate. I felt like my dog was well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Coco was in excellent hands! We received constant updates, photos, and videos throughout our trip, which gave us total peace of mind. The communication was fantastic. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for attentive and reliable care for their pet. They definitely gained us as a customer. Until next time!”
“Elena has been such a godsend to our two little guys!!! She is amazing with them and I trust her completely to make sure they’re cared for and loved. They LOVE the huge fenced-in backyard at the house. They spend basically all day out there by choice! She’s wonderful with them and I’ll keep coming back!”
“Michelle was fantastic! She took care of our Maxwell for 4 days while we were out of town. Right off the bat when we first met her and her husband we got an excellent first impression. She is very warm and friendly and genuinely cared about our dog, she was fantastic about keeping us informed on his day and sending lots of pictures. We never worried about him and knew he was well taken cared of and happy. I highly recommend her and we look forward to having her watch our Maxwell again soon.”
“Thank you so much for caring for Miller like he was your own! I love that Miller and your pup Charlie are new best friends, I’m sure he can’t wait to come visit again! Thank you for all the communication and for making sure he didn’t overdo it either! Thanks!”
“Laura was very accommodating to our last minute schedule adjustment. She took great care of our girl, sent pictures and communicated regularly with courtesy updates. She was kind, professional and we will definitely use Laura again!”

About: I've had cats since I was 3. I've had cats and dogs my whole life. I'm that one friend/family member that can pick up your cat and hold like a baby, that you said won't let anyone go near him😆 I love animals in general, but cats have special minds and spirits. My 1st cat was a full breed Siamese named Simon. All of the others have been rescues. Butters is pictured here with my son and his dog Baron, also a rescue. We call them the Orangie Twins. With rescues I've dealt with my fair share of various issues than can come with rescues. I spent a year correcting Butters' eating issues. In all of my years with fur babies, I have seen it all and cleaned it all! I've always had a home where cats and dogs lived cohesively while playing with each other, stealing each other's toys and knowing they we are all a family. I'm happy to take care of any special needs of your cat babies. They are all unique in their own ways. I have a spare bedroom if you need me to keep your babies separate from others. Currently, I have one dog who is cordoned off in his own space. I am happy to go to your place to catsit or to check in on them, give them some lovings, playtime, feed and water and clean up any messes and litter boxes. Anything else you need, just let me know. Warmest, Melissa
“Alexandra was GREAT with our kitty cat. She got lots of attention and was treated extremely well! Alexandra gave us daily updates and pictures, giving us peace of mind while we were away! It was an excellent experience and I couldn't recommend her more!!”
About: With 13 years of experience, caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s truly part of who I am. My love for pups started at 18 when my chihuahua was born right under my bed. We’ve grown up together, and now that she’s a senior, I’ve learned how to give older dogs the gentle, attentive care they need. I also recently brought home a lively young chiweenie rescue, so I understand how to balance playful energy with the slower pace of an older dog. Whether your pup needs long walks, cozy cuddles, or just some patient company, I’m here to make them feel safe and loved. I offer in-home visits and pet sitting. Monday through Thursday, I’m available for morning walks, evening drop-ins, and after-work hangs. From Friday to Sunday, I’m free all day for weekend stays, midday walks, or extra one-on-one time. I provide a calm home and a flexible routine, your dog will always be treated like family—getting the care, attention, and affection they need and deserve.
“Graham was absolutely fantastic! Our kitties were happy, healthy! Their food/water filled and clean, the litter box was looked after well. Graham was super kind the entire time and was flexible when we came back from our trip early. He kept us updated on our fur babies through the app and reached out when necessary. Will definitely request him again And would recommend him to other. :)”
“We have booked with Celeste multiple times and are always happy we did. She takes good care of our kitties, carefully follows the instructions, and is a fantastic pet photographer! It’s great to have peace of mind that our kitties are in good hands when we are out of town.”
“We definitely will be booking with Teri again, Our pebbles is a quiet little cat who does not like strangers but Teri was gentle and patient with her and made sure her needs were met, she also sent us pictures of our precious girl, greatly appreciated 🐈⬛😊”
“Caleb was a wonderful host for my two cats, Rory and Sebastian. He was very communicative and sent frequent updates while we were away. Pick up and drop off was easy as well. We will definitely be booking again. Thanks Caleb!”
About: I’ve been around cats my entire life and truly understand their personalities, routines, and needs. I love spending time with cats and making them feel safe, calm, and cared for while their owners are away. My current cat was adopted, so I also understand shy and anxious cats and know how to be patient and gentle with them. Friends and family have trusted me to help care for their cats over the years, including feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and giving them attention and companionship.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a child, and I currently take care of three adopted cats. I’ve been caring for them for many years and truly enjoy building trust and meaningful connections with pets. I’m currently a stay-at-home wife, which allows me to have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your furry friends. I’m available from Sunday through Friday. I provide a calm, clean, and safe home environment for pets. I closely follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and care instructions. I always supervise interactions, keep doors secure, and make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for at all times.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, especially when it comes to cats. I grew up in a household that always had multiple cats. I just recently moved from my parents house where we had four, including a rescue I brought back from an overseas deployment. I also have experience caring for senior pets, including my childhood pet, a 14 year old Siamese in her final years, where I provided comfort, medication support, and close monitoring. I’ve fostered multiple litters of kittens, including bottle feeding, scheduled care, and neonatal support (including stimulation for bathroom and feeding routines), so I’m very comfortable with young or high needs animals. I also have hands on experience caring for dogs, including a family chocolate lab that I regularly walked, took on beach trips, transported safely in my vehicle, and maintained consistent feeding and exercise routines for. I’m comfortable managing leash behavior, high energy dogs, and ensuring pets get both physical activity and attention. What sets me apart is my genuine compassion and attentiveness. I treat every pet like my own and take the time to understand their personality, needs, and comfort level. Treating any animal I encounter humanely is my calling. It is humans responsibility to care for them. What sets me apart is my expert knowledge and lifelong experience with all sorts of kitties and situations. They are such a special species and I know how to approach them with the care they need.
“Erich did a great job taking care of our 2 cats while we were traveling! Our cats have pretty different energy levels and he did a good job giving both of them attention and sharing updates when checking in.”
“Nichole is fantastic! She is so polite, timely and great with the cats. She is also very respectful of client boundaries during covid, and she went out of her way to come and get our extra key prior to the drop-in date. We will definitely book her again when we use Rover!”

“My baby Makana had a great time at JJ’s house.. Though we didn’t see the host’s interior of the house where the pets are, the pictures she had sent looked clean and safe.. It’s Makana’s first time to socialize with 2 dogs since she turned 2 yrs old due to some health issues when she’s a pup. We thought it’s time for her to explore and find out if she is well adjusted now that she’s an adult.She is as expected to be a little shy but was able to adapt and became comfortable. She is tired and pretty happy bec she had a play date with Zuri ( the host’s furbaby) and another furbaby. I’m glad that JJ has been sending pic and videos of our baby’s socialization activities and so nice of their son to play with the FBabies.. Thank you and will definitely recommend her services.”
“Melisa was amazing, offered to even meet prior to the arrangement and took wonderful care of our pup. We will be using her in the future, glad we found her. Very responsive and flexible.”
“We needed a dog sitter asap while we got our kitchen demolished for renovation. Our 9 month old Shepherd mix had a great time. He played with her dog, he was walked and he took naps throughout the day. I was updated with pictures and videos. It assured our family to know he was in good hands. Thank you so much Elena ❤️ Look forward to bringing our puppy back again when we need your services.”
“Our other sitter was unable to watch Rocco today. We were happy that this couple was able to take him last minute. With all the photos and video updates, we knew Rocco was in good hands!”
“Llona was wonderful. She responded very quickly to my last minute request. My dog definitely perceives the vibe of people and as soon as he met her he happily ran into her home. She sent me photos of her boys playing with our dog...he loves children and you can see they are dog lovers too. She was in good communication while caring for our dog which of course made me feel comfortable...no worry on my part. Funny enough dropping your dog off to a stranger is like dropping your child off ...you want to know they are well cared for and that they feel safe and of course have fun. I would give it an A+ day for his first visit with Llona. And we will def use her again and recommend her!”

I do this by following any special care instructions given carefully and doing my best to keep each pet as close to their normal schedule. I will treat your baby as if she was part of my family.

About: Hi There! I’m Haydee, and dogs & cats have always been a huge part of my life. From growing up with many to caring for my own dogs and cats over the years, I truly understand how important they are to your family. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime at the park, or just cuddling on the couch, I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel happy, loved, and safe while you are away. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I’m available most days after 8am to 2pm, and am also available during the evening time. I am also available to stay overnight depending on the dates and with prior notice. I would be happy to visit your home to check on your pets, so they feel safe in their own space. Unfortunately I currently can not care for your pet in my home.
About: I have walked neighborhood dogs since I was 11 years old. I serviced all dog owners, giving dogs fun experiences, and senior owners relief when they were not able to physically walk their furry companions themselves. I also serviced young owners who simply needed an extra hand during their day-to-day commitments. Need someone to check on your dog during vacay? Don’t fret! Your dog will be A-okay with me. I am currently holding a part-time clinical position in behavioral health, so I still have some open days during my week. Feel free to select any open slots available or just reach out! Inside the home, I am always checking and safeguarding the house to prevent any accidents or injury. While dog sitting for clients, I will also check each day for any little messes that pets may have left behind—especially if they are prone to peeing and/or pooping in the house. When I take my dog for walks, I always make sure that the weather is safe for his paws, or bring essentials like water if we are going outside for a longer time. If it is a hot day, I make sure he’s drinking plenty of water. I treat my dog for good behavior, or if I need him to come quickly. I keep my dog on a leash during walks but during place in an open field or dog park, he can go off leash and play. When a neighbor’s dog is in my care, I only let them off leash depending on their history with behavior, and where it is appropriate for them. And of course, I give them company.

Your pet is in great hands with me. I'm currently an online college student, so other than that I will have all the time to play and attend to your pups! I am available every day of the week and available on weekends. Pet sitter: I have an enclosed yard, with lots of grass and shaded patio for your dog to play. I also have one friendly old dog that can keep your dog company. My dog can also be put in another room to allow your dog some space if needed. My home is air conditioned in the hot days and heated on the cold days. I have many areas for your dog to relax and feel great overall! Pet walker: I carry a pet water bottle when your pet gets thirsty. I am aware of my surroundings at all times in case of an emergency or danger.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life including large dogs, small dogs, rabbits, ferrets, hamsters, lizards, and cats/kittens. Now as an adult I have 2 hilarious little pugs, who are my whole world. I have experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with various health issues that require medication. I am currently a stay at home mom and home all week, so you can trust that your fur baby will never be left alone while you’re away! Due to already having 2 of my own dogs, I will only accept one additional dog at a time (or 2 if from the same family.) because of this, you can rest assured that your dog will not be around other pets that you are not aware of, and I will also be able to devote my time and energy to your fur baby.

“AMAZING at her job. We had a situation where we needed our Uncles dog watched for 30 days and we found Melissa. She did an amazing job and even helped put Tiny on a diet. We felt very safe knowing Tiny was in good hands 🙌🏻 Highly recommend her !!!!!!!!”
“Ilona took great care of my two dogs at the last minute! I usually prefer to do a meet and greet, but circumstances didn’t give me time to do that, and still I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She responded quickly to any text and sent pictures. She has a great fully fenced-in backyard that I could tell they loved in the pictures!”
“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”
“Ophelia had a wonderful stay with Dmitriy and Svitlana and their family. They are very comfortable with dogs and understanding dog behaviors. We got lots of pictures of her out and about, and Ophelia came home very happy and relaxed, she clearly got great exercise and care. Will definitely book again!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Tiffany & her husband. From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to make sure my fur baby felt safe, loved, and cared for while I was away. Not only did they follow every instruction perfectly, but they also took extra time to give my pup walks, pool-time , and plenty of affection. Thank you again! 🐶 🐾”
“Irina is so nice and her dog Sugar is a sweetheart. I got lots of pictures and updates which I really appreciate. I felt like my dog was well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Thank you so much for caring for Miller like he was your own! I love that Miller and your pup Charlie are new best friends, I’m sure he can’t wait to come visit again! Thank you for all the communication and for making sure he didn’t overdo it either! Thanks!”
“Laura was very accommodating to our last minute schedule adjustment. She took great care of our girl, sent pictures and communicated regularly with courtesy updates. She was kind, professional and we will definitely use Laura again!”

“Erin and her family are a godsend! When I was preparing for our wedding, I forgot to book a dog sitter and the week prior to our wedding I contacted Erin to watch my dog scooter! She agreed and even went out of her way to drop him off for photos on the day of the wedding! She kept us consistently updated on what he was doing, and even sent photos of her family playing with scooter, which warmed our hearts! Cannot recommend her enough for her family took such good care of our Scooter boy we are forever grateful!”
“Almost don’t want to leave this review because I don’t want her to get completely booked up, lol, but Leslie and her family are the best sitters we’ve ever had. Oliver is the most relaxed I’ve ever seen him when he comes home from her house and is always happy to go in the door. I think he really thinks they’re his second family 😊🐾”
“Kevin was great!! My original roover sitter canceled on me 2 hours before our scheduled drop off and Kevin was kind enough to take kona in. Kevin and his family were very kind to kona while we were away and communicated with us during our trip sending us pictures. I will definitely book with Kevin again.”
“Summer and her family are great! They are super friendly and obviously love dogs. They are very accommodating to our schedule and when our dog got conjunctivitis just a few days before we were scheduled to leave, Summer wasn't phased at all and even helped administer eye drops for us. Summer's availability will be the first I check whenever I'm heading out of town.”

“Stacey is truly the BEST!! She has a big yard and a wonderful pet-loving family so it was great knowing our dog was treated like a king :) We would definitely hire her again for her services. She went above and beyond and surprised us with the wonderful care and attention to detail. Truly a wonderful treat!!”
