“Debra is amazing! My dog Winter felt right at home the moment she arrived. Debra has a very large backyard for dogs to roam around and play. Her home was very clean, inviting and accommodating.

I highly recommend Debra.”

“This was our first time using Rover, and we were a little nervous about leaving our dog Jack with someone new—but Stasha was amazing! She went above and beyond, treating Jack with so much kindness and patience, especially since he’s an older pup. She took him on walks, gave him plenty of time to relax and soak up the sun, and communicated with us every step of the way. We really appreciated her transparency and how she always checked in before trying new activities with him. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience!”

“I just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Yolanda for taking such amazing care of my dog while I was away! 🐾❤️ From the moment we met, I could tell my pup was in great hands. Yolanda was not only professional and reliable but also incredibly kind, patient, and loving with my dog. I got regular updates, adorable photos, and total peace of mind knowing my dog was happy, safe, and well cared for. It’s never easy leaving your pet behind, but Yolanda made it feel effortless. I came home to a calm, happy dog—and that says it all. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely passionate about animals, I can't recommend Yolanda enough!”

“The best Rover sitter! J D truly loves dogs, and it’s a great feeling to know we’re leaving our dog with someone who cares about their well-being.

J D was also flexible and accommodating with our scheduling needs, he’s professional and reliable all around.”

We really appreciate her and will definitely be using her again. Highly recommend!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are beyond grateful for the exceptional care Rikiya provided for our beloved Simba while we were away. From the very beginning, his kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals were evident. He treated Simba as if he were his own, giving him so much attention, care, and affection. What truly set him apart was the constant communication—sending thoughtful updates, pictures, and videos that gave us complete peace of mind and reassured us that Simba was happy, safe, and well loved. Coming home to a relaxed and joyful pet meant everything to us. We trust him wholeheartedly and will absolutely be leaving Simba with him again in the future.

About: I've taken care of animals since I've graduated high-school. I'm an animal lover and have taken care of the smallest animals to the biggest. I am willing to go the extra mile for your babies and give plenty of updates. I currently work part-time, allowing me to offer overnight stays as well as morning walks and morning and evening feedings. If your pet requires additional care during the day, I can also accommodate drop-in visits. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to keep their routine familiar, comfortable, and stress-free while you're away. I provide care in my clients' homes to help pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. During the first few days, I make an effort to spend extra time with your pet to build trust, learn their routine, and help them feel secure while you're away. I follow all feeding, exercise, and medication instructions carefully and maintain a clean, safe environment. I prioritize your pet's well-being by providing companionship, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention while respecting your home's rules and routines. For overnight stays, I ensure pets have consistency, comfort, and supervision throughout the evening and morning.

“Sara did a great job for their first drop-in engagement with Leo and Phoebe. They followed directions well, including play time, administering medication, feeding, litter box hygiene and sending me updates. They were easy to communicate with and helped to transition Leo to new food and medication while I was out of town. I will be rebooking them. Thanks Sara!”


“Thank you once again to Rebeca for the excellent care she provided. This was my second booking with her. I’m so grateful to have someone I trust caring for my cats when I’m away.”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals including dogs, cats, horses, and chickens which taught me how to care for every animal with patience and love from an early age. I am calm, dependable, and connect naturally with pets, even the more shy ones. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies as well as senior pets, including giving medications and following special routines which I do for my own senior dogs. I always treat every animal like family and make sure they feel cared for, happy, and safe while you are away. Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, and I love spending time playing with, walking, and caring for pets. I am a recent college graduate currently searching for work which means I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. I can provide care morning, afternoons, and evenings, and will happily adjust to your pet's needs and routine. I care for pets in their own home with much love and attention, following all instructions and routines closely in order to keep them at ease in the surroundings they know best. I prioritize their safety, happiness, and comfort while also treating your space and belongings with respect. Having cared for animals my whole life, I make sure every pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for while you are away so that they feel at ease.
“Holly was very kind and thorough when we met and when she stopped by to feed and spend time with my cat when I was away. She is communicative and sent pictures every visit. I felt very comfortable with her and could tell my cat was comfortable with her as well. I would strongly recommend her to others to provide loving pet sitting. I’m grateful I found her to take care of my baby. Thank you holly, you rock!”

About: I have 1+ year of hands-on cat care experience, and I truly love working with all types of cats — from playful kittens to shy or independent adults. As the owner of Icyshappypets, my priority is creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment that helps cats feel secure while their parents are away.

About: I’ve cared for cats with all kinds of personalities, from playful and social to shy and independent. I understand that cats thrive on routine and comfort, so I always take the time to help them feel safe and relaxed in their environment while their owners are away. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, and giving cats the patience and space they need to warm up at their own pace. Whether your cat loves attention and cuddles or prefers a calm companion nearby, I’m happy to match their personality and needs. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple-cat households, senior cats, and cats that may be nervous around new people. My goal is always to provide attentive, stress-free care and make sure your cat feels comfortable, cared for, and loved
“Delaney is amazing. Even with somewhat short notice she came through for me and provided an amazing experience. Rosa loved her and I would not hesitate to ask Delaney to come back. Wonderful girl, sweet and caring, everything a person could ask for. Highly recommended.”

About: Over 20 years as a dog owner. I'm semi-retired. I've been watching friends' and friends of friends' pets for years. I've been the only house/dog sitter for a pair of Dalmatians for the last 5 years. I've handled puppies that are still working on becoming housebroken as well as senior dogs that need regular medication and extra care. I do in-home tech support/ IT work. When a customer's animals have warmed up to me, I've been asked if I did pet sitting as well. It feels good when the pet picks you. My working schedule is very flexible, I'm usuably able to adjust it to make sure I'm available to see to your pet's needs. If I commit to caring for your critters they will be my scheduling priority. I don't have pets in my own home. When house/pet sitting, besides feeding, walking and picking up after the pets I'm capable of handling household issues that might come up.

“Tracey was truly incredible with my cat, Molly. Leaving my little baby with someone else was really hard for me, but Tracey made the entire experience so comforting and reassuring. Every single day she sent thoughtful updates along with photos and videos, and seeing Molly safe, relaxed, and loved meant everything to me. You can genuinely feel how much Tracey cares about the animals she watches. She didn’t just “check in” on Molly—she gave her love, attention, and patience, and treated her like her own. Because of her, I was able to be away without constant worry, knowing my baby was in the best hands possible. I’m beyond grateful for her kindness, communication, and dedication. I would trust Tracey again in a heartbeat and recommend her to anyone who wants their pet cared for with real love and compassion. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”


About: I’ve helped take care of my grandma’s cats since I was young, and three years ago I adopted my own rescue kitty. Shortly after, she was diagnosed with FIP, and caring for her taught me how to give eye drops and oral medications gently and patiently. She’s now thriving, and that experience gave me a lot of confidence caring for cats with medical needs. I know many cats can be shy or skittish, and I’m always patient and willing to move at their pace. I take feeding instructions and dietary restrictions seriously, and I treat every cat like one of my own. You can trust me to give your fur babies lots of love and attentive care.

About: ive cared for many cats in my years as a petsitter. i currently house 3 amazing cats who i love. i personally feel very close to cats (moreso than dogs actually!!) and im good with cats who are very shy as well
“We were nervous about leaving our two cats alone for the first time! Taylor is such a lovely person and you can tell that she really cares about the animals. One of our cats was really scared when Taylor came to meet them (they normally are not around other people), but Taylor won Gigi over on the second day of the drop in visit! She took pics and it was great to get the report saying how they were doing. We will definitely book her again when we travel!”

“Stasha was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Elora and Jasper. We had a big party to host, and knowing they were in her care gave us so much peace of mind. It honestly allowed us to enjoy the day instead of worrying about the pups. From the start, Stasha was warm, communicative, and incredibly reassuring. She sent us updates and photos throughout the day, which meant so much and made it clear our pups were happy and in great hands. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and treats them with so much care and attention. Elora and Jasper came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. We felt completely safe trusting Stasha with them, and that kind of trust is huge. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and truly invested in caring for your dogs, I cannot recommend Stasha enough. She made it possible for us to host our party without a single worry, and that was priceless. We would absolutely book with her again in a heartbeat. 🐾”

“We are so grateful to have found Jatin. He is very professional, friendly, caring and amazing with how well he worked with Rocco. The communication is great and impressive.

Thank you so much Jatin! :)”

About: Hello, I am a wife and mother of 2 boys. I grew up on a farm with a variety of animals both big & small. I lost both of my doggos to old age a little over a year ago and although I cannot bring myself to adopt anymore pets, I would love to have some fur babies around the house. I currently work from home, which makes potty breaks easy. My evenings and weekends are available to spend time with your fur baby. I am a huge animal lover, as I did grow up on a farm. My childhood dogs were mainly German shepherds. I’m very familiar with large breeds, and find them to be the most loving. Small animals are fun and usually love cuddles, so it’s a win/win for me. Although I do you live in a two bedroom townhouse I have access to a very large lawn, plenty of shaded play area with a fenced in yard if it is too hot out to walk on cement.

I specialize in both puppy training and gentle senior care, giving each dog the personalized attention they need.

I make sure every pup gets a balance of exercise, affection, and downtime, so they stay happy, healthy, and relaxed while in my care. In my home, dogs enjoy a safe, clean, and cozy environment with supervised play, comfy resting areas, and plenty of love. I maintain their usual routines, offer outdoor breaks and walks, and give each dog personalized care based on their personality. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their household rules closely and treat every space and pet as if they were my own.

“Angelina has been an absolute blessing for our family and our dogs. She cares for Winston (our Cockapoo), Charlie, Annie (our Labradoodle), and our Bernedoodle, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. She has such a calm, wonderful presence, and it’s clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs. They’ve all warmed up to her so quickly, which says everything about her energy and the trust she builds with them. Every time they return, they have the most cheerful dispositions and are ready for a cozy nap—it’s obvious they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. We truly feel lucky to have Angelina and would highly recommend her.”

“Holly took wonderful care of my German Shepherd, Nicolai, for the week. She kept me updated every day with pictures and details of their walking routes, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Nicolai looked incredibly happy and well cared for in every update. It’s clear Holly genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog walker! I look forward to rebooking Holly in the very near future. Hugs I appreciate you.”

About: I have been taking care of pets for over six years. I have cared for fish, cats, and dogs. I have a big dog myself so large dogs do not scare me. I am great with animals and am more than willing to do house sitting, day time check ins, walking, bathing, etc.! I am about to graduate from school so I will be home all the time and will be able to stop by for house visits or to hang out with pets all day. Though for things like walking dogs would prefer to do that in the morning in order to beat the heat! I have a large fenced in yard with one dog to keep others company. My dog is crate trained and is non aggressive. In the house there is no chemicals or other harmful substances that pets could access. Additionally most cabinets and such are baby proofed so cats or other small pets would not be able to get in or trapped.

I know how important trust and consistency are when someone is caring for your pet, so I focus on being responsive, dependable, and detail-oriented. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week, including weekends when needed. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and potty breaks so they can stay comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, daycare, and house sitting, depending on scheduling availability, and I make communication a priority by providing regular updates and photos during each visit or stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and supervised environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed while you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and individual needs to help reduce stress and keep pets comfortable. I believe trust and communication are extremely important, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout each stay or visit. I also take time to learn each pet’s personality, habits, and any special instructions ahead of time so I can provide attentive, reliable care. Whether during walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I focus on creating a safe and positive experience for both pets and their owners.

Whether that’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medications, providing enrichment, or simply spending quality time cuddling on the couch, I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs. I treat every home with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I work part time in an optometry office and part time at a spa, which allows me to offer a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available early mornings, during my lunch break on most weekdays, evenings after work, and all day Friday and Sunday. During overnight stays, I provide care before work, stop by during my lunch break when needed, return after work for dinner, walks, and quality time, then stay overnight with your pet. I always strive to maintain their normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before the booking. I always keep dogs leashed when out, unless you’ve specifically approved otherwise, and they’re in a secure area. I make sure gates and doors are secured, fresh water is always available, and I closely monitor pets during walks, playtime, and outdoor breaks. I treat every client’s home with respect, keep it clean, and make sure it’s in the same condition.

About: I've cared for dogs for years, including my own pets as well as dogs belonging to friends and family. Through that experience, I've learned how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow each owner's instructions carefully, whether that's feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or simply giving them the attention and affection they need. My goal is to make your pet feel happy and secure while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and love that I give my own. I'm currently in college, but I only have three classes this semester. Therefore, I will have more time to play with your pup! I'm available to board on weekends and most weekdays. The only times I will be out are Tuesdays and Thursdays before 2 pm and Wednesdays after 2pm. I have a fenced yard to play outside in and your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or mine, I'll make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and a calm, loving environment. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I also make sure pets are always supervised during walks, keep doors and gates secure, and pay close attention to their behavior to ensure they're happy and healthy. I'll treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: My name is samantha, I love animals and I love to travel and im sure a lot of you do too. It is never fun leaving behind a family memeber but i'll make sure they are not only taken well care of, they'll have so much attention and fun they won't have time to miss you! Im comfortable giving medication, long walks, frequent updates, early trips to the dog park or late night trips. I can prepare a BARF meal or a kibble one. Ive worked with both cats and dogs, I always follow directions to last detail, your pets safety will be just as important if they were my own. Im very mello and relaxed, easy to get along with, and easy to reach.

“Debra is amazing! My dog Winter felt right at home the moment she arrived. Debra has a very large backyard for dogs to roam around and play. Her home was very clean, inviting and accommodating. She took my dog for several walks throughout the day and sent several pictures and updates. Debra is someone I trust completely and will always count on her for the future. I highly recommend Debra.”

“This was our first time using Rover, and we were a little nervous about leaving our dog Jack with someone new—but Stasha was amazing! She went above and beyond, treating Jack with so much kindness and patience, especially since he’s an older pup. She took him on walks, gave him plenty of time to relax and soak up the sun, and communicated with us every step of the way. We really appreciated her transparency and how she always checked in before trying new activities with him. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience!”

“I just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Yolanda for taking such amazing care of my dog while I was away! 🐾❤️ From the moment we met, I could tell my pup was in great hands. Yolanda was not only professional and reliable but also incredibly kind, patient, and loving with my dog. I got regular updates, adorable photos, and total peace of mind knowing my dog was happy, safe, and well cared for. It’s never easy leaving your pet behind, but Yolanda made it feel effortless. I came home to a calm, happy dog—and that says it all. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely passionate about animals, I can't recommend Yolanda enough!”

“The best Rover sitter! J D truly loves dogs, and it’s a great feeling to know we’re leaving our dog with someone who cares about their well-being. J D took care of our senior dog Nemo, with lots of warmth and affection. When we picked him he didn’t seem anxious to leave, he was so relaxed. J D was also flexible and accommodating with our scheduling needs, he’s professional and reliable all around.”

We really appreciate her and will definitely be using her again. Highly recommend!”

“Bryanna understands dogs and dog behavior, is so professional, and trust worthy. I was very nervous leaving my dog with someone new but it was amazing. Was provided updates throughout the day, will definitely rebook again.”


About: I have been taking care of pets for over six years. I have cared for fish, cats, and dogs. I have a big dog myself so large dogs do not scare me. I am great with animals and am more than willing to do house sitting, day time check ins, walking, bathing, etc.! I am about to graduate from school so I will be home all the time and will be able to stop by for house visits or to hang out with pets all day. Though for things like walking dogs would prefer to do that in the morning in order to beat the heat! I have a large fenced in yard with one dog to keep others company. My dog is crate trained and is non aggressive. In the house there is no chemicals or other harmful substances that pets could access. Additionally most cabinets and such are baby proofed so cats or other small pets would not be able to get in or trapped.
“Nayana took care of Shiro with love and treated him like her family member. She followed all our instructions carefully and sent us important updates with photos throughout the care. Shiro seems happy and enjoyed the stay with her.”

About: Comfortable with any size or breed of dog. I have a fenced yard with no small children, easy access to walking trails and dog park. I am retired and am home all day and weekends. I have a dog friendly vehicle and flexible schedule. I usually walk 4-5 miles daily. I am comfortable with all dog breeds. I have room for crates if needed, and have a dog friendly home. I can follow specific dietary needs
“I was lucky to find Michelle and Michael. My dog is young golden retriever with high energy. Michelle and Michael gave my dog plenty of cuddles and attention. They gave my dog long walk and played fetch with him. Michelle sent me updates frequently that helped relieve my separation anxiety. I couldn't be happier to have my dog stay with Michelle and Michael, who are really nice and caring people.”
