Highly-rated overnight sitters - Valparaiso
“My dog was a foster and had been in the shelter for over a year and usually took a while to decompress but after Gabriela watched him he didn’t need any time to decompress and could tell he was well taken care of!”
“David and Krysta always take the best care of Marli and Mason! We always feel so comfortable leaving our pups in their care, knowing they’re having the best time and are so well loved and looked after. We truly appreciate them and would highly recommend!”
“Sariah is amazing!We were late picking up our pup because of our flight getting delayed coming back and she is so patient and understanding of our situation.Our pup found a second home with Sariah and her fur babies.We will recommend her to everyone and ask for her service again whenever we need someone to look after our pup.Thank you kindly Sariah!”
“My husband and I were so happy to have found this very sweet family to take care of our Rosie! They definitely made our medical trip much easier knowing she was loved and well taken care of.”
“Erik sent updates and pictures to let us know how Nellie was getting on throughout her stay. Being a Border Collie, she can get quite anxious but settled really well. Thanks Erik!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job with Koda. Jessica sent lots of pictures and updates. Koda came home happy and healthy. Thanks for a great stay. Would definitely book again. The only downside was Jessica lives on base so we had to meet up at a location off base and transfer car to car. Not a big deal but may matter to some.”
“Very happy with Naomi. We felt very comfortable with her upon first meeting. So much so that we requested minimal updates during our mini vacation. Sheeba immediately took to her as did Naomi to her. We definitely plan to use her in the future.”
“Erika & Jason V were wonderful to deal with. I had to drop off Scamp sooner than expected and they were very accommodating allowing me to drop him off 4 hours early. Erika & Jason sent me pics and updates for Scamp everyday which really eases your mind when you are away from your beloved pet. Scamp is an older dog and has some issues with food and meds and Erika & Jason made sure he was given the correct amount of food and meds at the right time. Scamp loved staying with Erika & Jason and when I need another sitter for Scamp, Erika & Jason will be my go to. We will definitely book with Erika & Jason again through Rover. They treated Scamp like one of there own and I made me feel very much as ease leaving Scamp. Thanks again Erika & Jason, for taking care of my beloved pet with such care and attention and treating him and me like family..”
“Chelsee was such an amazing sitter taking care of my dog, Buddy! She made sure he had lots of love, cuddles, and walks. She made sure to accommodate to all of Buddy's needs and provide consistent, detailed updates with how he was every day making it so reassuring that he was being well taken care of while we were away. I highly recommend Chelsee if you ever need her to care for your pets!”
“I'm so grateful for Nichole and her family taking care of my baby and accepting him on a short notice. He felt right at home. This is the first time I used Rover, and I couldn't have felt more comfortable leaving him with her. The messages of updates and photos or videos were also a wonderful touch, knowing he was well taken care of.”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! She took incredible care of our dog, treated her like family, played with her constantly, and made sure she was happy and comfortable the entire time. We especially appreciated all the photo and video updates — it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell she cares about animals and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and caring. Definitely a 5-star experience!”
“Sophia was amazing. From the moment we dropped off me and my husband both felt so comfortable and at ease leaving our baby with her. We were updated throughout his whole stay with pictures. He went on walks, and got to play with other friends. We will definitely be booking her again ❤️”
“There is no way to be able to let you know what a great job Sheila did taking care of Sprinkles while I was away. She not only spent the entire week making sure that Sprinkles was happy and comfortable, but she also made her a welcome member of her family. She added many extra touches to ensure that she was content, including a very cute pedicure. Thank you so much for your exceptional care of Sprinkles, and I will be leaving Sprinkles with Sheila at every opportunity.”
“Juniper had a lovely weekend while we were away and Anna sent many photos from their time together. Anna was very communicative and accommodated our drop off & pick up times.”
“Barbara was an excellent caregiver for my baby, Cody. We both learned that Cody has separation anxiety as he is never away from his family. Barbara worked through it and made the environment comfortable for him as she could see he was stressed out and depressed. She sent messages, pics and videos to ease my mind. Barbara is amazing and should be commended for her patience with our babies.”
“Rich and Kayla were awesome sitters. They took on the car of our 10 month old velociraptor without a second thought! Kayla sent daily updates with pictures and even gave him a bath (after he was bad and decided to they needed a hole in their backyard). 😐 Thank you again for taking such great care of Barley! He said it was just like summer camp and can’t wait to come swim again.”
“Harvey accepted our booking about two days before us arriving in town! We were very anxious to leave HoneyBear with him, but she went straight to him and went right in his home. When she was standing at the door barking as we left, he gently closed the door, which definitely helped us and possibly HoneyBear, too. When I reached out to Harvey, he responded quickly and sent us pictures of HoneyBear as well. She was always on the couch (probably beside him)! When we picked her up, she seemed to be content and obviously happy to see her human dad. Harvey definitely earned our trust with HoneyBear’s visit!”
“Alex took wonderful care of Donny! We are so thankful! We were traveling for a family vacation but needed a few night for Donny to stay somewhere - I was nervous but she sent wonderful updates and took wonderful care of him!”

“Gina is absolutely the best fur-baby sitter. Our kitty is in great hands with her and she gives us great daily updates with photos. Without question, we would not want anyone else taking care of our kitten. Thank you Gina”
“Valerie has watched my 3 cats on separate occasions for extended periods. She loves cats and even my 2 cats that don’t like strangers interact with her. She uses toys to get the cats to exercise during her daily drop ins. Valerie is the best and I highly recommend her.”
“Erika did a wonderful job taking care of my cat, Tig. I really appreciate that she spent time with him and even went the extra step to refresh his water and sweep up. This is the second time she’s watched Tig, and she continues to be reliable and caring. Highly recommend!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been walking and caring for dogs for over 9 years, and I currently share my home with six animals of my own, so I truly understand how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. I absolutely love both dogs and cats and enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing outside, or just needs a calm companion, I’m happy to match their pace and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Because I’m a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always focus on keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable. I’m reliable, attentive, and love sending updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is having a great time. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🐶🐱 I'm currently working part time two days a week as a registered nurse. When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time with my own pets and volunteering at Panhandle animal welfare society in their clinic, recovering dogs and cats after spay/neuter surgery, as well as walking dogs. When I am caring for your animals, I will be focused on their needs 100%. I've been caring for animals in foster, at the shelter where I volunteer and at my home for the last nine years.

About: Hey everyone! I'm Desireé, I'm extremely excited to meet you and your best friend(s). I have fur babies of my own that are super spoiled. I know first hand how it can sometimes be hard or impossible to kennel them or find someone trust worthy enough at the last minute to watch your pups so that's what I want to do for you. It also breaks my heart when I hear about dogs having to stay inside all day or inside a crate due to their owners hectic schedules and I don't mind taking the time out of my day to help you out and make your pup happy! Especially if you're military and always gone or just have an insane work schedule I can help!

She made sure to ask questions to make sure any special instructions were clear and really made everything just right bc when we returned home, the dogs were just as happy as they could be! Rebekah's love of animals is evident by the way she interacts with them, and especially the ease with which she was able to bond with and handle my sweet, but beastly, German Shepherd lol. I will definitely be booking with Rebekah again and I know my dogs will be excited when I do!”

For clients, I would follow their pets schedule, feed, walk, clean litter, and give pets.

Also would work with hamsters, guinea pigs etc. I own a maltese named Zeus, he is 5 years old and very submissive but playful. My mother adopted her maltese from Alaqua Animal Refuge 2 years ago and I have helped train him. He has anxiety and trust issues, but he is getting to be more calm.

“David and Krysta always take the best care of Marli and Mason! We always feel so comfortable leaving our pups in their care, knowing they’re having the best time and are so well loved and looked after. We truly appreciate them and would highly recommend!”
“Sariah is amazing!We were late picking up our pup because of our flight getting delayed coming back and she is so patient and understanding of our situation.Our pup found a second home with Sariah and her fur babies.We will recommend her to everyone and ask for her service again whenever we need someone to look after our pup.Thank you kindly Sariah!”
“Erik sent updates and pictures to let us know how Nellie was getting on throughout her stay. Being a Border Collie, she can get quite anxious but settled really well. Thanks Erik!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job with Koda. Jessica sent lots of pictures and updates. Koda came home happy and healthy. Thanks for a great stay. Would definitely book again. The only downside was Jessica lives on base so we had to meet up at a location off base and transfer car to car. Not a big deal but may matter to some.”
“Chelsee was such an amazing sitter taking care of my dog, Buddy! She made sure he had lots of love, cuddles, and walks. She made sure to accommodate to all of Buddy's needs and provide consistent, detailed updates with how he was every day making it so reassuring that he was being well taken care of while we were away. I highly recommend Chelsee if you ever need her to care for your pets!”
“I'm so grateful for Nichole and her family taking care of my baby and accepting him on a short notice. He felt right at home. This is the first time I used Rover, and I couldn't have felt more comfortable leaving him with her. The messages of updates and photos or videos were also a wonderful touch, knowing he was well taken care of.”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! She took incredible care of our dog, treated her like family, played with her constantly, and made sure she was happy and comfortable the entire time. We especially appreciated all the photo and video updates — it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell she cares about animals and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and caring. Definitely a 5-star experience!”
“Sophia was amazing. From the moment we dropped off me and my husband both felt so comfortable and at ease leaving our baby with her. We were updated throughout his whole stay with pictures. He went on walks, and got to play with other friends. We will definitely be booking her again ❤️”
“Barbara was an excellent caregiver for my baby, Cody. We both learned that Cody has separation anxiety as he is never away from his family. Barbara worked through it and made the environment comfortable for him as she could see he was stressed out and depressed. She sent messages, pics and videos to ease my mind. Barbara is amazing and should be commended for her patience with our babies.”
“Rich and Kayla were awesome sitters. They took on the car of our 10 month old velociraptor without a second thought! Kayla sent daily updates with pictures and even gave him a bath (after he was bad and decided to they needed a hole in their backyard). 😐 Thank you again for taking such great care of Barley! He said it was just like summer camp and can’t wait to come swim again.”
“Harvey accepted our booking about two days before us arriving in town! We were very anxious to leave HoneyBear with him, but she went straight to him and went right in his home. When she was standing at the door barking as we left, he gently closed the door, which definitely helped us and possibly HoneyBear, too. When I reached out to Harvey, he responded quickly and sent us pictures of HoneyBear as well. She was always on the couch (probably beside him)! When we picked her up, she seemed to be content and obviously happy to see her human dad. Harvey definitely earned our trust with HoneyBear’s visit!”
“Alex took wonderful care of Donny! We are so thankful! We were traveling for a family vacation but needed a few night for Donny to stay somewhere - I was nervous but she sent wonderful updates and took wonderful care of him!”
“If I could rate her higher than a 5, I would! Alexandra was so patient with my older dog. I had no doubt after our meet and greet that she was the perfect person for my fur baby, Nellie. Nellie has to take meds 2x/d and Alexandra was very comfortable doing this. I was delayed in coming home. Alexandra was so nice to continue to take care of Nellie until I arrived, which put me at ease. Nellie loved her and her 2 dogs. She will always be my first choice to care for Ms. Nellie!”
“I adore Jeannette and so did my fur baby! I felt completely confident leaving my dog with her. I was pleased with all the updates and the photos she sent me. Jetta was so happy and loved her dog. They had the best time playing together and going on walks. I would absolutely recommend Jeannette!”
