“Azure was a great sitter. I knew at the initial meeting my dog was going to be in great hands. I received several photos throughout her stay and appreciated every one. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Allison and Nick were so great, you can tell how much they love animals!! We got lots of good updates and they took such good care of our pup. Their big backyard with a tall fence is perfect. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone!”
“We had a great experience with Amber. She was always quick to answer and flexible with our schedule to drop off/pick up. She kept us updated with pictures of Ginger and was very kind. Her dog Tater and Ginger had a great time together! We would definitely recommend her.”
“Karisa was an amazing pair for Eddie. We got to visit beforehand for a meet and greet. They have a huge yard which I am sure Eddie saw a ton of. This experience was made so easy and allowed my son and myself to visit family for a well overdue visit. Our minds were at peace and our pup was healthy and full of spirits when we came to pick up. Please book with zero hesitations!!! If they had a 6th star to choose, I would have selected.”
“Mariana was amazing! She took such great care of our dog when we went on a week vacation. She took daily pictures and cared for him like he was her own. We were so grateful for her. We will defiantly use her again.”
“Geleea was amazing with my cat and helped her feel right at home. She provided me with pictures and videos ensuring her safety and also took her in pretty last minute! thank you so so much!”
“We loved boarding our Everitt with Cory. He was very in tune and experienced with dogs and how they act and was understanding of our young dog’s behavior. When we picked her up we could tell she was well cared for and happy with her stay. We would use him again and would recommend him to anybody that is looking for somebody”
“Absolutely loved her!!!! She was so welcoming with my dog! She would keep me updated on my dog! And she just so nice, she also took my dog to her moms house for thanksgiving so my dog wouldn’t be alone which I thought was really nice and thoughtful! Definitely recommend!! You’ll want her to babysit your dog!!”
“Anne was a Godsend for us! She watched our two 13 year old dogs, a pug and an American bulldog, for three weeks! Both dogs required medication which Anne gave daily without fail. Anne had the patience to deal with all of their quirky behaviors and still remain positive and kind. She updated us daily with texts and photos so that we knew what was happening. It gave us a great peace of mind that Anne had a mobile vet on call if needed. We highly recommend Anne as a pet sitter and will definitely be taking our dogs to her again!”
“Great experience! A wonderful family that loved on our dogs while we were gone. We received pictures every day and put us at ease with our first Rover experience. I highly recommend!”
“First time using rover! Definitely was happy! My pup had an amazing vacation! He was well taken care of! Emily made me feel at ease with all the pics of our pup having the time of his life! 10/10 would recommend!”
“If you were to imagine the couple you’d want to watch your family pet its Alex and Jaycee. They are very professional, clean home, great communication, and evident pet lovers!”
“Mindi did a great job. Gizmo needed extra care due to his age she handled it like a pro! Gizmo needed meds and used an inhaler and had an ear infection at the time. I highly recommend Mindi she is very attentive and takes special care when dog sitting!”
“Agnatha was great with my dogs! They warmed up to her really quickly and had a wonderful time with her. She sent me many pictures to show how they were doing and was communicative about what they were doing and how they were eating and such. I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you, Agnatha!!”
“We would give Stephanie more than 5 stars if we could. Our dog loves staying at her house and we love that she always provides a wonderful enriching environment for him. Our little scaredy-dog is starting to come out of his shell thanks to Stephanie, her hubby Chris and their cats.”
“Rebecca did a wonderful job providing loving care to my Shih Tzu. She sent to me daily updates and photos; it was so reassuring to know my pup was in the hands of an attentive caregiver.”
“Cassandra did a great job taking care of Banjo for two nights. Communication was excellent (photos and videos, along with messages about how he was doing), and Cassandra was willing to accommodate drop-off and pickup requests to fit my schedule for the weekend. I have always been apprehensive about boarding my dogs at a kennel if I have to go out of town for more than one night. Cassandra made Banjo feel at home and kept him in a normal, relaxed environment and routine.”
“Once again a 5 star experience! This time Kristen watched our puppy over our wedding weekend and it was so nice having him well taken care of and still given updates even if we were too busy to reply!”

“Edmy and Craig did a great job caring our cat while we were out of town and kept us updated with pictures. We felt confident he was in good hands and we will use them again.”
“Bree is an outstanding sitter and a lovely human being! She cared for my and my partner’s cats (3) while we were out of town for a couple days. Her detailed check-ins (descriptive and timely updates, soooo many photos! 🥰) eased our hearts while away from the cats. It’s also so clear how much Bree loves doing what she does, AND my super shy cat LOVED playing with her. Bree, thanks for all you did for Hank, Moon Pie, and Kitten! 🥹❤️ I’d love to work with you again.”

About: I have been fostering for a local rescue for over 2 years. I have had all kinds of dogs walk through my house. I also walk dogs and sometimes watch friend’s dogs when they are away or out of town. I currently work days so I have a flexible schedule. I’m mostly a homebody when not at work. I am able to do last minute boarding or emergency boarding if needed. I have a single family home with a large fenced.

About: I'm extremely patient with any dog. I always make sure they fell comfortable around me before I do anything! I am a strong walker! I also know how to make the most out of any time spent with a dog! Pet care is my number one priority for an animal I take care of! I will always make sure that the animal is the top priority when we go anywhere. I always put the dogs safety before my own. I will watch for other dogs and loose animals when we go on walks. When sitting in the past I let the parent know of the times I let the dog out or do anything with the animal. I will send many cute pictures for updates of what is going on!
“I can’t say enough good things about Farrah! She was absolutely incredible with my golden doodle, Goldie. Not only did she take her on a great walk and send the cutest updates, but she also went the extra mile—literally and figuratively. When I got home, I saw she had thoughtfully refreshed Goldie’s food and water bowls, and even spruced up her bed area so it was tidy and cozy. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, but that’s exactly what Farrah did. Goldie was relaxed, happy, and clearly adored her. I felt 100% confident and grateful knowing she was in such caring hands. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Stormy was very kind and responsive. My cat spent nearly a week with her and I got updates / pictures every day. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in great hands ☺️”

I’m also brilliant with keeping routine. I get along great with all animals. Building trust with a loved pet can be such a reward. It’s truly soul bonding.

About: I have had pets in my home my whole life And my friends and family have always relied on me to care for their animals.I am an animal advocate! I am not working anywhere else at this time so I have a pretty free schedule. I am willing to care for any animal all hours a day I have a half an acre fenced in yard for dogs to run. With an actual dog run. I also have a separate kennel if needed.
About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. Growing up on a farm, I was surrounded by creatures big and small—everything from conures to bison. From an early age, I learned not just how to care for animals, but how to truly respect them. That foundation deepened over the years into a lifelong appreciation for the bond we share with our animal companions. Adopting my dog Uschi was life-changing—she taught me about unconditional love, loyal companionship, and even nudged me toward a healthier lifestyle. That experience reinforced my commitment to providing pets with the same love and care I give my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I prioritize consistency, comfort, and safety. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, respect any dietary needs, and make sure they feel calm and cared for every step of the way. I can’t wait to run, play, and give your sweet baby the love they deserve! I currently work remote at my own pace, so I have full availability any time of day, morning or over night. Complete flexibility to your schedule. My overnight stays are flexible and can be tailored to your pet’s specific needs. I’m happy to take care of small home tasks like bringing in the mail or taking out the trash—just let me know what you'd like. We can also go over feeding schedules, walk routines, and note any areas that are off-limits to ensure everything runs smoothly. I understand that separation anxiety is common, and I approach each visit with patience, empathy, and a calming presence. Your pet’s comfort and emotional well-being are my top priority, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, seen, and cared for in your absence. I’m also very mindful of pet nutrition—no treats or dietary changes will be made without your clear consent. I’m available for a wide range of time frames and am happy to adapt to your pet’s rhythm and routine, providing consistency, comfort, and a little extra love while you're away.
About: I have had experience with pet care since I was a kid. Growing up, my family always had pets, including dogs, cats, and even some small rodents. I was responsible for feeding them, taking them for walks, and ensuring they had a clean and safe environment. As I got older, I gained more knowledge about pet health and wellness, and I even volunteered at local animal shelters to help care for abandoned or injured animals. This hands-on experience has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and responsibility when it comes to taking care of pets. I truly enjoy being around animals and providing them with the love and care they deserve. I currently work 2 jobs so im normally free all day Mondays, Tuesday evenings and Thursday's as well so i do have available schedule just message me and we can go from there I own 2 dogs currently live with 4 and i actively train them everyday.I like challenging my own pets minds because it helps them think for themselves But also keeping me happy because i already know they do the right thing when im there and not there to watch them.Caring for other people pets i like to do what makes the owner comfortable or even teach them something they didn't know before.
About: I have worked at many grooming and boarding places and am enrolled to become a vet tech. I know how to feed, provide medication, clean up, walk, and bathe animals. I also know how to trim nails, clean ears, and brush teeth if needed. Growing up I've always connected well with animals and I cannot wait to create a bond with your animal as well. I am very flexible with my schedule. I am able to take care of your animals anyday of the week. I also work at the zoo so whenever I'm not there I will be available. I would take care of your dog in the way you want. So if you want them to be crated or left out while in your home then I will definitely do that. I will also provide the same feeding and medication instructions that you list.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my comprehensive experience and specialized skills in pet care. I have extensive training in puppy care, including housebreaking, basic obedience training, and socialization techniques to ensure your young pet grows up well-behaved and happy. Additionally, I have a deep understanding of senior pet care, providing gentle and attentive support for older animals with specific health needs and mobility issues. My dedication to each pet's well-being, combined with my ability to handle a wide range of needs, makes me a reliable and exceptional choice for your pet's care. I am currently a SAHM (stay at home mom) so most of my time is spent indoors or running small errands. I am more than capable of being attentive to your pets needs. I provide personalized and attentive care for pets, whether in my home or in my client’s home. In my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I maintain a consistent routine that includes regular feeding times, daily exercise, and plenty of play and socialization. I have a pet-friendly space with areas designated for rest, play, and training. I also prioritize hygiene, regularly cleaning feeding areas, toys, and bedding. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow the pet’s existing routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. I pay close attention to the pet’s specific needs and preferences, ensuring they receive the same level of care and affection they are accustomed to. I keep a clear line of communication with pet owners, providing updates and addressing any concerns promptly. My goal is to provide a seamless and stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners.

“Rebecca did a wonderful job providing loving care to my Shih Tzu. She sent to me daily updates and photos; it was so reassuring to know my pup was in the hands of an attentive caregiver.”

Communication was excellent (photos and videos, along with messages about how he was doing), and Cassandra was willing to accommodate drop-off and pickup requests to fit my schedule for the weekend.

Cassandra made Banjo feel at home and kept him in a normal, relaxed environment and routine.”
