We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely use her again!”
“Dara gave me peace of mind while taking care of my pup. She gave me great updates, was very responsive whenever I reached out, and gave my pup the care and attention she needed when she was missing us.”
“A true life saver! We attempted to keep our dog at a pet friendly hotel while we went to a concert, but Noodle decided she was going to let the hotel guests know how much she missed us by barking. We thought for sure we'd have to listen to the concert from the parking lot or just not go all together. Kathy responded very quickly, super nice and accommodating . Thank you again!”

“As always, Kathryn did a great job with my very shy cat, who feels more familiar with her after each visit. Great communication and great at taking careful care of every detail.”
“Desiree went above and beyond while taking care of our 4 cats. Not only were our cats well taken care of Desiree also brought in our mail and garbage cans! We got great updates and pictures. We will definitely book Desiree again!!”
“Thank you so much Suzanne for taking such wonderful care of my cats. I’m incredibly grateful for how far beyond your duties you went, it truly gave me peace of mind during my trip, knowing they were in such good hands. Thank you 🙏”
“Colleen did an Excellent and detail attention to my cats, timing, activities with them, and duration of each visit exceeds my expectations! I will definitely look for her next time.”
“Alyssa was absolutely a God send. She was incredible with our two kitties that we never left before. She was very thorough and detail oriented. Also she sent regular pictures and videos and messages. Anytime I reached out to her she was very quick to respond. She was the only person that our kitties actually went up to the first time they met her. They are always reserved and shy and actually run and hide from any visitors...even my parents that have been here several times took them several visits to get used to. Animals can sense a good hearted, caring person when they meet one. We will absolutely be using Alyssa on a regular basis. I know it can't be easy to trust someone you don't know staying at your house for several days but as soon as I met Alyssa, I was instantly comfortable and trusting of her. One word to describe her: PERFECT. :-)”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐✨ We had a last minute worry about our cat sitting situation so I went on Rover for the first time. We were gone for a few weeks and felt really bad for the cats. We feel so lucky to have found Lisa. She ended up spending more time with our cats than scheduled. She also was able to fix the schedule when we had to make a change. There are other things that helped our peace-of-mind like turning the porch light off each day and bringing the mail in so our home didn't look vacant. She cleaned up before leaving. She left detailed notes and sent cute photos daily of cuddling and playing with our cats :) We will definitely reach out to Lisa for our cat sitting in the future.”
“Danielle was amazing and communicative. She took great care of our 3 cats while we were away. Her daily visits made sure they were fed, had water, and clean litter boxes! She’s the best!”
“I will never go to another sitter, ever! She takes care of my cat who is an absolute terror to people, and Ethel is bery kind to her. She goes above and beyond every time I have her!”
“Tara is extremely attentive to my cat every visit, and adjusts to his needs of the day. So grateful for her flexibility, understanding and helpful spirit. She always sends the updates that I need, as well as wonderful pictures. Thank you, Tara!”
“I highly recommend Peggy! She watched our 2 cats for over a week, and I will definitely be a repeat client. During our meet & greet she paid close attention and asked follow up questions to make sure she fully understood the care instructions. Peggy is also very communicative. She really gave me peace-of-mind.”
About: I take time to learn each cat's personality and temperament. I have 3 cats of my own, one of them which has medical needs. I provide regular updates to give you a peace of mind. I have experience in litter box cleaning, administering oral and subcutaneous medication.
About: I've had a variety of cats, both in type and amount. I currently have two cats with very different personalities and I approach them differently to accommodate that. I play with Puca who likes to make mischief while I leave Minerva be until she wants some cuddles!
About: I love cats! I have had a cat since I was 5 years old and currently live with my senior cat who I have loved for 16 years. I am also well versed in caring for and playing with kittens!
About: I was 10 when I had my first orange Garfield cat! He was loving, sweet and very playful. We are a family who loves animals and currently own 1 dog and 1 cat. We love to play with them as much as we love to admire them. Cats have very unique personalities and we are here to keep them safe and comfortable while you enjoy your time away. :)
About: Hi! My name is Ariel (yes, like the mermaid hehe), and I've spent the last two years providing dedicated care to my two cats, both with different temperaments and personalities. Whether it's a playful kitten or a shy, senior cat, I know how to make sure every feline feels comfortable, safe, and loved. Though my experience may be recent, I bring a level of attention and care that guarantees your kitty is in excellent hands. I'm highly attentive to their needs, whether it's ensuring they're eating well, keeping their litter box fresh, or engaging them with just the right amount of play and affection. Your cat’s health and happiness are my top priorities, and I always go the extra mile to provide updates, photos, and a stress-free environment while you’re away. I also have experience with administering medication and handling special diets, so you can be confident that I’ll follow your care instructions to the letter. I also have a google form with questions that can help me tailor to your cat's specific needs and your preferred method of care, so you don't have to worry about any t's uncrossed. No matter your cat’s needs, you can trust that they’ll receive the same level of love and attention they get from you. I’m excited to meet your feline family member and provide the best care possible!

“Susseth was very accommodating and gave constant updates and made sure my youngest dog felt comfortable in her home as he’s somewhat timid. Would definitely you Susseth again. Highly recommend .”
“Amy was the most attentive, caring, and responsive sitter we have had for Alfred. Alfred loved playing with Amy's fur babies and enjoyed his stay. The backyard is such a great perk!”

“She is such a great person inside and out! Did a doggy date care to have my puppy aquatinted with her kids and other dogs she was boarding and everything went well! She even gave my puppy a bath. I was very comfortable and satisfied to know my dog was and is in good hands! Highly recommend!!!”
“Skyler had a wonderful stay with Lina and didn’t want to leave! Lina was very accommodating, especially with our last-minute booking. We’d definitely book with her again in the future. Thanks again!”
“Iman is the absolute best. She has really been a blessing to Gigi and I, there aren’t enough good things to say about her, and I always see that my Gigi is well taken care of when I arrive to pick her up. Thank you Iman, 😊❤️”
“Great experience with Ethel. We came in from out of town to watch a Red Stars game and she took care of our bernedoodle, Frankie. Ethel’s place is a very short way from SeatGeek Stadium and Frankie came back to us happy.”
About: Animals are freakin awesome and I love them! I've had snails, a bird, frogs, co-owned cats (one at a time), as well as cat sit. I grew up with a dog, and spent 15+years with my beloved baby Shiba Inu Kenji. He had one eye, lots of arthritis, kidney issues, and half his teeth in the end but was full of life! Very familiar with meds and schedules and special needs, natural food etc. Not ready for another and didn't know much about this service. I wish l'd have known, so let me help YOU! (Note- i cannot take dogs over 60lbs, check box options are limited. Thanks for understanding) I work from home so can be available for full days, or as needed. Weekends I may have some things to do but will prioritize where needed. I do not have a crate, but you can provide. Otherwise I have bowls and beds and cones of shame as well as soft flower cone where needed. I also have gates and a pen, and multiple doors. I treat my animals (mine or family friends) like a kid. Safety always, lots of love, and a fun time!
“Jim was great, the dogs ran right in his house and started inspecting. Kinda like when you think your kid is going to want to stay with you on the first day of preschool and they run in without looking back. Jim will definitely be first choice going forward.”
“Janet was very pleasant and my dog got along good with her fur babies. There is confront in knowing your dog is being cared for properly. I will definitely be calling on Janet again. Peanut Butter and I Thank you”
“Amazing care for my Butters. I was completely comfortable leaving him in Danny’s care. Daily pictures and a lot of space for Butters to run around. Will be coming back to Danny for future service! 5/5 Recommended!”
“Sarai and her family took such great care of my dog Chanel. She sent me pictures and videos, Chanel looked like she was having the time of her life. She gave her a bath, she smells so fresh and clean. I will definitely book Sarai for my future needs.”
About: I’ve been dog walking for 4 years and truly love caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities.Im also a dog mom to 2 presa carinos & 1 maltipoo. I’m reliable, patient, and focused on making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and comfortable during every walk. Whether your dog needs exercise, playtime, or just a little extra attention while you’re away, I treat them like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom because I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day active and organized. I enjoy being around animals, and I have free time during the day that allows me to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or check-ins, I’m able to make pet care a consistent and reliable part of my weekly routine.I can also do late drop ins. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In my client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special care requests. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, patience, and exercise based on their personality and energy level. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and communication with pet parents by providing updates and photos so they feel at ease while away.
About: What sets me apart for other sitters is that I have them enjoy their walks at their own pace. In my years of experience, I have not only taken care of dogs but also cats just to name a few. Every animal is unique in their own way so being kind goes a long way. I like to have the owners as well as the dogs comfortable with me so I obtain as much information from the owners regarding their furry friends as I can. I am currently free to play, drop-in or bring your furry baby home with me. Whatever your pets needs are, I am here to help. I have a big backyard where I normally allow the dogs to run and play. But it does not have a fence in one area where the driveway begins. My home has two floors which the downstairs I use for the dogs to lay down, play or sleep. I do own a dog myself but she isn't allowed to interact with guests dogs unless previously approved by the guests parents first. I also have cameras, where I can capture video and photos to send to the pet parents.

“I recently adopted a rescue who is having a hard time adjusting to new people. Kathryn did a great job with him! Despite him growling at her she was patient with him and helped him calm down so she could walk him. She was reliable and understanding. I then asked her if she could come again last minute and without hesitation she agreed! I would definitely work with Kathryn again!”
“Desiree was quick to respond and communicated with me very well. Showed up on time and listenes to me about Gator’s quirks, she was great to work with and I would recommend her services.”
About: Pets have always been a part of my life. From my first fish to my 6 year old Labrador now I can’t ever stop hanging around animals. My neighbours friends and family always say I’m the animal whisperer. Dogs and cats are my primary specialty encompassing walks, play time, meal time, you name it I’ll be able to do it with them. I’m a student athlete so my schedule is pretty flexible to stop in during the days or stop in overnights. I know it can get hectic taking care of animals from my own house so I’m here to make it easier for y’all. Compassion. Treat the animals i’m watching as I’d treat my own. Following the rules the owners set forward will ensure animal and human are happy at the end of the day.
“June can be nervous initially but warmed up to Patrycja quickly! I can tell June enjoyed her walks by the pictures and updates sent! Patrycja really went above and beyond to make sure June was comfortable! We both appreciated the help today! Thank you!”
“We are so grateful for the extra special care she gave our little pup! He had an accident in his crate, and she went above and beyond to not only clean up his crate, but also make sure Milo was cleaned up and comfortable. Despite the unexpected mess, she still took the time to take him outside, give him attention, and make sure he had a happy and cared-for day. It was clear that Milo was in such good hands. We couldn’t be more thankful for her kindness, patience, and genuine care for our pup. Highly recommend!”

“Suzanne is a great help walking Shiloh twice a week, she follows instructions and is very communicative. She also sends plenty of photos on their walks, and leaves Shiloh tired. Definitely recommend!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life, helped with training, and often would dog and house sit for friends and family. I've attended several dog training courses with some of my own dogs, as well as researching and practicing on my own. I've helped a close friend and my sister do basic training with their own dogs. I also have 2 cats, and am careful to adjust treatment of all my animals to their personality and needs! I am available Mon/Tues/Saturday. I can be available Wednesday and Thursday with advanced notice. I am only available Sundays and/or Fridays upon request and with at least 3 weeks notice. I currently work part time in the service industry and am getting ready to go back to school for a career change. My schedule is mostly flexible, but I do have a commitment to my other job as well. I'm happy to work with anyone who needs me during unavailable days, don't be afraid to ask and we can see if we can work it out! My dog is not dog friendly, so I do not do any care at my residence. However, it means I am experienced with dogs who need a bit more awareness in their care than others! I'm attentive and firm, and am willing to go for a 2 hour hike or rest in the house depending on their needs.
