“This was my very first time using Rover. Upon meeting Melissa she was very kind. I explained to her about the needs of my Colby. She was very attentive and a great listener. She assured me that he would be fine in her care. During my 4 days away she sent photos which warmed my heart. Melissa followed instructions to perfection and when he returned to me it was as if I never left. He had no issues, exactly what I needed as a pickie dog owner. Melissa is very accommodating. I look forward to working with her again real soon and I believe Colby does too. Thanks Melissa for your professionalism and care for my Colby.”

“Thank you thank you thank you… it’s so relaxing to know that in my absence my fur babies are being loved and well cared for while we travel. Nothing better than our pets getting to stay in their home and the Alyssa doing exactly what she was asked to care for them.,, from their daily walks to giving medicine to giving treats to showing them love.”
“There aren't enough words to express how AMAZING Dianne is, both as a cat-sitter and as a person. Not only did she send me daily updates on my Chunky boy, but she clearly bonded with him instantly and they became good friends. He let her scratch her in ways nobody but me can! Besides how she adored my kitty cat, she took care of the essentials as well (food, water, litter) and went above and beyond to push my trash out and bring packages inside. I will definitely be using Dianne for all future pet-sitting needs and have already confirmed her for a week in November. THANK YOU, DIANNE! Your care for Chunky let me enjoy my vacation and I truly appreciate that.”

“This was our first time having a dogsitter versus boarding our dogs. Crystal was awesome - she sent us pics and our dogs love her. I am the type of pet owner that HATES leaving our dogs to travel, but I really felt good that they stayed in their own home and Crystal was dropping in on them throughout the day. It seemed like they didn't even miss us! Am already booking her for our next vacation!”

About: As a dog lover, I understand how important it is to give your furry friend the best care possible. Having been a pet sitter for my friends’ dogs, I’ve gained valuable experience in administering medication and sticking to a strict routine. Unfortunately, my fur babies passed away recently, leaving a void in my home and heart. So, I’m excited to open up my home and help others with their adorable pups 💕 As an avid walker, I know how crucial exercise is for our four-legged friends. I’m always looking for an opportunity to hit the pavement, and what better way than to do so with a loyal doggo by my side? I’m confident that I can give your dog the exercise and care they deserve.

We have plenty of space for your furry friends to run and play, as well as quiet spaces for them to relax and nap. Our schedule is relaxed, and we always have plenty of time for walks, cuddles, and playtime. As an animal lover, I understand the importance of making sure your pets are healthy and happy. When your pets stay with me, they will receive all the love, care, and attention they need to thrive. Whether you need to leave your pets with me for a few hours or a few days, you can be sure that they will be in the best of hands. I have a fully fenced-in yard that provides the perfect playground for all of your furry companions. 💕 I know the pups love a little time to play outside and bask in the sun while enjoying some fresh air! I also understand that safety is important, which is why I do require a crate for your pet. While they have free rein of the yard and house during the day, I am able to keep them safe and secure in their crates at night or whenever the need arises.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. Growing up, I cared for a variety of pets including Rottweilers, a purebred Husky, teacup Chihuahuas, rabbits, turtles, and guinea pigs. Since I was homeschooled while most of my siblings were at school, I became the primary caregiver for many of our pets, handling feeding, exercise, cleaning, and daily care. I also helped train our white Husky using patience and consistency, which taught me the importance of understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine very naturally because I’m already used to structured responsibilities and being attentive to animal needs. I also work part-time, so I’m familiar with balancing a job, staying organized, and still making sure I give animals consistent, focused care. I plan my schedule intentionally so pet visits, walks, and check-ins don’t feel rushed or like an afterthought. When I’m with pets, they have my full attention. I make sure feeding, playtime, litter care, and comfort routines are done properly and on time. Even with a part-time work schedule, I prioritize clear communication and reliability, so pet parents always know their pets are safe, cared for, and getting regular updates. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their environment as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow their normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, playtime, and any special instructions like medications or specific habits. I also make sure their space stays clean, safe, and comfortable while respecting the home as if it were my own. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and comfort level—whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and need space. I let them warm up at their own pace and make sure they feel secure while their owner is away. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and connected. If caring for pets in my home, I would maintain a calm, clean, and supervised environment where pets are given attention, structure, and comfort throughout the day.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 20 I've had my own pets and I have experience caring for dogs of all different sizes and breeds. Family members have put trust in me to take care of their pets. I’m a lover of all pets, young and old. We can do so many fun things I am sure I will pamper your pooch. I live in a house with a fenced yard and friendly neighbors! I live in a house with a fenced backyard. Many of my neighbors own dogs and you can see them walking their dogs in the neighborhood. My home is clean, fun and lovable.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve had Pitbulls, chihuahuas and yorkies so I am accustomed to the differentiating behavior that dogs can display between breeds. I believe in honesty and communication to keep both parties protected and informed because your pet is important. I don’t want any harm to come to them on my watch. My dog has seizures, so I understand the concern that can come from a person watching your dog and not understanding the nuances of how to properly care for them and their special needs. I am here to be that person for you. Currently, I work part-time on the weekends during the evening, so I’ll have plenty of time for your pets. I am also an online college student, so I appreciate those that are understanding of that. The most important way to care for your animal is to see and learn how you care for your animal. No one is going to love them or ever know them as well as you. Each animal is unique in behavior, so I try to respect any boundaries imposed upon me by your pet or you.

“We had an amazing experience with Megha while she cared for our 5 month old puppy during a week-long stay. She is professional, reliable, and truly great with dogs. I received daily photo updates and consistent communication, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog looked happy and well cared for in every update! I especially enjoyed the belly rub video's!! It’s clear they genuinely love animals and take their job seriously. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
“Cristina is literally the best! We left maple for over a week to go on family vacation and she really made me so comfortable the whole time. We will continue to use her for future services. Maple loves her!!!!”
“Veronica is the best sitter! She treats our two puppies Lady and Thor like family! Thor is a senior (9 years old) and since taking her to Veronica's he's not only lost weight from the play time but has more energy! He runs into her house when we drop him off because he gets so excited! Lady was a bit shy at first (2 years old) but she's become so much more social and gained more confidence playing with other puppies at Veronica's. I can not recommend her enough, she takes great care of our babies, including giving Thor his medication. She is the best!”
