She’s DEFINITELY on my repeat sitters now Thank you! Xoxo”

“When I tell your that Shelisha made me feel ao comfortable and reassured about my fur babies , she did just that. I was so nervous because I’ve never had my babies shave a sitter but she did her thing. Sent updates,photos, text messages videos. My babies were so happy with her & I love this for them. She is an awesome sitter. Did so well that I didn’t text so much and only one drop in visit . Your fur baboes will be in Great hands with her.”

“My Dante loves Summer and her son. I was worried he would act funny after picking him up from their home but he was like I never left. Thank you Summer! Dante is my Baby and to know he was well cared gave me all the peace of mind I could have during my time away. I would have them take care of Dante again with no doubt. ❤️”
“Christian was absolutely wonderful. He took his time getting to know Georgia during our meet and greet. He carefully observed how she interacted with other dogs at his home. He is very compassionate and knows what he is doing. I felt extremely comfortable boarding Georgia with him for a few days. He sent pictures throughout his visit so I always knew how Georgia was doing. I highly recommend Christian and I will definitely use his services again.”
“Matt and Nicole are the ideal sitters you could ever dream of! I wanted to find a boarder with whom I felt my golden doodle had a safe, fenced-in, clean, and loving environment while we’re out of town. They went above and beyond! These are genuine people who truly love animals and will treat your pet as their own with all the love, respect, and attention you’d want for your furbaby. After staying about 8 overnights with them now, my dog runs to them both as if they’re extended family. I couldn’t feel more comforted knowing my puppy-girl is well cared for and loved while I’m not able to be there. If you’re looking for a sitter, these are your people! Look no further - they’re also wonderful at sending lots of great updates and photos. You will NOT regret booking with them! We will also plan to rebook with them in the future! 🐾💕”
“Cherisse was a home away from home for my three dogs. They loved her and her pups! She was extremely attentive and responded to all of my questions almost immediately. She also sent high quality pictures and videos every day so I could see their beaming smiles?. I could not have asked for a better sitter and will most definitely rebook!”
“Love love love Karla! This was the first time using this app and trusting our 3 fur babies to a new person. Karla is very sweet and caring person and our dogs loved her. We were away for a week and during this time we stayed in contact to check on the pups , she sent us pictures almost daily with updates. Our dogs love her and so do we. Will be staying our dogs with her again! Thank you ❤️”

“We were so pleased with Ginger’s care for Lexi! She kept us constantly updated on Lexi’s well-being with pictures and messages, which gave us such peace of mind. Lexi was happy and relaxed, getting to enjoy all her favorite activities. It was clear Ginger made Lexi's time special, and Lexi even bonded with Ginger’s sweet Yorkie, Bella. We couldn’t have asked for a more attentive and loving sitter. Highly recommend!”

“We we’re leaving the state for Thanksgiving and our indoor tuxedo cat Espresso escaped that morning. I was able to contact Ruth through Rover... which I heard from my daughter was a great service. She was able to go to our house the SAME day and look for our cat. She then proceeded to search twice a day for the next Six days… she suggested putting cat treats outside and the cat box. Because of her efforts when we came home late on Monday night Espresso was on the balcony waiting for us… We are very thankful for Ruth and will definitely use in the future.”
“Yan is an AMAZING cat sitter! She kept in daily communication in a professional and upbeat way; it's such a relief to find a sitter who sends a detailed report with plenty of adorable photos. She very smoothly handled some hiccups when my lively kitties got into some mischief. She seemed to care for them in a way that really put me at ease. Would definitely book again!”
“Amber was phenomenal with our kitties!! She does such a thorough job and you can tell really cares about animals. I am so glad we found her and will definitely be using/recommending her in the future! Thanks Amber :)”
“Second time we have used Micah, and will continue to use her! She is prompt, so friendly, and wonderful with our kitties. We know our fur-babies are in good hands with her. Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth took such amazing care of both Lightning and Gata! She was extremely attentive and very accommodating to our hectic schedule!! Will most definitely call on Elizabeth again!!”
“Kylee helped us out of a real bind when my mother went into the hospital for 2 weeks & her normal pet sitter was also hospitalized at the same time. We needed someone last minute to take care of her cat, Whiskers. Kylee responded quickly & was able to help immediately. She was very responsive, reliable, flexible & caring. She kept us updated on each drop-in visit & sent pictures of Whiskers during each visit. I highly recommend Kylee & would definitely hire her again!”
“Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)”
About: I’ve had a dog since I was a little kid. I also have watched dogs for my friends. My two oldest daughters head off to college this August.

However, my mom lives next door and she has two dogs, Daisy and Zoe. They visit often. But when we are watching other dogs, they will not visit. Our goal is to provide a fun, safe environment for your pup while you are away. I am able to watch your fury family member any weekend during the school year or June/July over the summer. I am not available: July 6-9 After July 30, I am back at school. I am available to watch your fury family member Friday (after 3:30) until Sunday evening (anytime.) I have a pool for them to swim in and and fully fenced in area around my house. I have about 40 acres we can take leashed walks on if you would like. We do have a few cows and a horse on the extended acreage. My lab/beagle mix loves to play with dogs. She plays well with both small and large dogs.

“I am beyond grateful for the incredible care our cats received while we were away. You can truly tell how much Shawnee loves animals by the way she goes above and beyond. I got regular updates, photos, and came home to very happy cats. It made being away so much less stressful knowing they were so loved and cared for. I honestly can’t recommend her enough!”

Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with a dog and two cats and honestly, I can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a furry friend by my side. I’ve always been surrounded by animals, from family pets to farm animals, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and neighbors. Now that I’m a college student, I really miss having animals around, so I’m excited to share my love and care with your pets! Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll always make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved! I am currently in a social work graduate program, so I am in an internship during the weekdays 9am-4pm. I can usually work around those times, and I try to be as flexible as I can, so please reach out even if my calendar says I’m not available! I live in a pet-friendly apartment with two friendly cats (who can easily be separated if needed), a screened-in patio perfect for lounging, and access to a dog park and safe walking trail nearby. It’s a cozy, welcoming space where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I’m comfortable following any specific care routines or instructions you provide, and I’m also very intuitive when it comes to understanding an animal’s needs and emotions. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to make them feel secure while you’re away, I’m happy to provide that love and attention.

Watching over your furry friend fits perfectly into my open Monday through Friday schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care and flexible availability from mornings through late afternoons. I have plenty of free time for playtime and would love to spend even more with your furry friend. I care for pets by keeping them comfortable with their normal routine while giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. This includes following feeding schedules, providing fresh water, cleaning up after them, and making sure they feel safe and relaxed in their familiar environment. I also communicate regularly with the owner through updates and photos so they know their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.
About: As a passionate pet lover, what sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to providing personalized and attentive care to each pet. I have extensive experience in training puppies, ensuring they develop good habits and social skills from a young age. Additionally, I am well-versed in senior pet care, offering gentle and patient support tailored to their unique needs. My genuine love for animals drives me to go above and beyond, ensuring every pet feels safe, happy, and loved under my care. I’m home for the summer and working part time as an interior design intern. I am home most days so I will be able to give the upmost care and attention to your pet. I offer both in-home and client-home pet care services, each tailored to meet the unique needs of the pets and their owners. **In My Home:** Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I provide a comfortable space with plenty of toys and cozy resting areas. Regular exercise, playtime, and cuddles are a part of the daily routine. I maintain a consistent feeding schedule and adhere to any special dietary requirements. With constant supervision, your pet will never feel alone or neglected. **In Your Home:** I ensure your pet stays comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I follow your specified routines for feeding, exercise, and playtime, maintaining consistency for your pet's well-being. I am attentive to their needs, providing companionship and care while you're away. For puppies, I continue with their training and socialization, and for senior pets, I offer gentle and patient care tailored to their needs. In both settings, my top priority is the happiness and health of your pet. My approach is to treat every pet as if they were my own, providing the love and attention they deserve.
“Rachelle was so responsive and made me feel so comfortable! It is my first time ever using Rover & I’m glad that she was available. Definitely will be using her services again! Highly recommend!”
“Kylee is awesome! I shopped around for a while and couldn't find the right match.My Sadie is very protective and she has been very sheltered so she doesn't care for too many people but she took to Kylie right away! she loves her! She is very prompt and very trustworthy ! She is capable of doing any type of service that you need! Even though I would like to keep her all to myself she could benefit other people as well! Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, rats, guinea pigs, chickens and ducks since I was a kid! I love all animals and am open to requests for most animals and most levels of care. I work at a pet boarding/daycare facility currently and as a school psychologist, volunteer rescuing manatees, and volunteer at animal shelters in my free time! I have experience with all sizes of animals, medications, special needs, etc. and am open to most requests. I will always take care of your pets and love them like my own! :)<3 I’m a school psychologist and have summer break free! that means june thru beginning of july i will be available at all times to care for your pets :) of course i still take caution with the hot weather and make sure to only take walks when it’s cool enough for the pups feet I utilize sidewalks when able and try to find shady areas for play so they don’t overheat, avoid other people/dogs when I can to ensure safety of everyone, and make sure to follow all directions/read all info about your pets before caring so I know exactly what to expect. I take time to let all pets get comfy with me and bond and am happy to take your pet somewhere safer to play or walk if you’d like!
“Cassidy was very accommodating, flexible and kind with my fur babies. It was their first time left alone all day in a very long time and my first time using the app and Cassidy was patient with my new navigation of this process and tender hearted to my lonely doggie. Warmed my heart that she sat with my girl and encouraged her to eat her meal even though she was missing her momma. I even needed to add an extra walk when my day went unexpectedly late, and this was no issue.”
About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.

Dante is my Baby and to know he was well cared gave me all the peace of mind I could have during my time away. I would have them take care of Dante again with no doubt. ❤️”
“Christian was absolutely wonderful. He took his time getting to know Georgia during our meet and greet. He carefully observed how she interacted with other dogs at his home. He is very compassionate and knows what he is doing. I felt extremely comfortable boarding Georgia with him for a few days. He sent pictures throughout his visit so I always knew how Georgia was doing. I highly recommend Christian and I will definitely use his services again.”
“Matt and Nicole are the ideal sitters you could ever dream of! I wanted to find a boarder with whom I felt my golden doodle had a safe, fenced-in, clean, and loving environment while we’re out of town. They went above and beyond! These are genuine people who truly love animals and will treat your pet as their own with all the love, respect, and attention you’d want for your furbaby. After staying about 8 overnights with them now, my dog runs to them both as if they’re extended family. I couldn’t feel more comforted knowing my puppy-girl is well cared for and loved while I’m not able to be there. If you’re looking for a sitter, these are your people! Look no further - they’re also wonderful at sending lots of great updates and photos. You will NOT regret booking with them! We will also plan to rebook with them in the future! 🐾💕”
“Cherisse was a home away from home for my three dogs. They loved her and her pups! She was extremely attentive and responded to all of my questions almost immediately. She also sent high quality pictures and videos every day so I could see their beaming smiles?. I could not have asked for a better sitter and will most definitely rebook!”
“Love love love Karla! This was the first time using this app and trusting our 3 fur babies to a new person. Karla is very sweet and caring person and our dogs loved her.

Will be staying our dogs with her again! Thank you ❤️”

“My senior dog and young cat were very well taken care of. Received daily pictures and updates. Was allowed to bring my cat’s kitty condo because that is where she feels safe. She gave my dog’s pills as prescribed. Highly recommend. They had a 9 day stay.”
“I 100% recommend Ana. I will definitely book again with her. She kept us informed of how Giddy was doing and sent us pictures and videos of him. He was very loved on his boarding with Ana. I could see he had a great time with his 2 new furry friends which loved to play with him. They are a very welcoming family. If you want a place where they love and take good care of your pet as much as you, you should book with Ana. ❤️”
“They were amazing to my kitty Buggy, super understanding of all my crazy asks and nervous jitters leaving my friend behind. They sent update pictures and even went to the store to pick up more food and treats because I had miscalculated how much she would need. I would definitely use them again.”
