“After our normal sitter wasn't able to watch our dogs I almost cancelled the trip until my husband found Hanna on Rover. She had great reviews and our dog meet and greet went well. I could tell she loves animals and I had a great feeling. I got regular updates along the way. I would highly recommend and use Hanna for our services again.”
“Without a doubt, Olivia is a top notch, caring dog sitter. My Gusto stayed two nights. First time away from us and I was very pleased with the care he received and the communication we received.”
“I was very pleased with my dog’s adventure. At our meet and greet Remington was very comfortable with Jeremiah. On the day I dropped him off, Remington had no issues with my leaving and as I drove away he and Jeremiah were off taking a walk. When I picked my dog up, he seemed very relaxed and appeared to have enjoyed his stay. Jeremiah is flexible with drop off and pick up times, which is so helpful when traveling. I have no hesitation in leaving my dog with Jeremiah in the future.”
“Jenny took such attentive care of Chula when Chula felt under the weather. I am grateful that my pups were loved and cared for while I was out of town. It helped ease my mind considerably.”
“Christina is wonderful. Nothing fazes her. We left our 13 year old mostly deaf, partially blind and very demanding King Charles spaniel with her for two weeks and she had no trouble at all. We had never boarded him before, so we were really happy to see photos of him running around her back yard and interacting with Christina’s dog and others. So good for him. Highly recommend!”
“Our high energy sweetheart can be overstimulated if the people around her don't know how to interact with her, but she did great with Alydia! We were traveling to visit family and we were nervous about leaving our dog with someone new, but we didn't have a thing to worry about! Alydia asked all the right questions and our dog loved being with her. Will definitely book her again when we're in the area. Thanks so much!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs. Either it being within the family or friends. I have experience with all sizes and ages. I have no concern adapting to your dogs unique needs. I work partly remote through the week. Allowing for pee breaks throughout the day. I have weekends open most of the time. It will be no problem to provide a comfortable stay for your pup. I have a fenced yard and safe house in a great neighborhood. I currently have one medium dog full time and my girlfriend has two small dogs here part time.
“Leandra and Mark did an amazing job with our puppy. They are so personal with clients. They took such good care of our baby. I definitely will book again. Their availability is great especially for a puppy. They love playing with the puppy. They treated our puppy like he was their own. I look forward to them watching him again soon!”
“Our 7 month old lab had never stayed anywhere without us overnight but Clara’s amazing setup, calm and friendly presence, and the company of other awesome pups made it so enjoyable. We will be back again and again!”
“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”
“Nicholas was so great at taking care of my dog and walking me through my first time using Rover! He was always easy to get in touch with, and I’ll plan on reaching out to him again when I have to travel without my dog.”
“Victoria took really good care of Beans, kept me updated and always responded to my messages quickly. She was kind and had a great environment for pups. She took her for walks and let her sleep with her in the bed. Beans had a great time there!”
“Very kind and welcoming. Really showed they cared for and enjoyed our nervous little dog. Everything went well, and we got just the right amount of pics while gone. Highly recommend!”
“Daisy was the happiest I've ever seen her with someone else taking care of her. Emily is a treasure that I found. I'll be using her often. Thank you Emily! And her dogs were awesome with Daisy!”

“Maegan was so attentive and great to our cat. She followed directions and my cat loved the attention! My cat requires an oral medication and Maegan was able to give her medicine while I was gone. Maegan also was so considerate and brought in our mail/packages. We will be using her again!”
“Elizabeth took excellent care of our cats! She even had to deal with a power outage and was a trooper thru that. Also, our one cat is afraid of thunder and she calmed her down nicely and gave her the love to get her thru it! Highly recommend!”
“Summer went WAY above and beyond when at a time when our cats were incredibly high maintenance. She was a great communicator, and showed compassion for our cats (and for my husband and I on our honeymoon)!”
“Thomye and her daughter were the best Cat Sitter ever! Super nice and friendly! They sent us pictures the whole time we were gone. Completely stress for experience, knowing our Cat summer was in great hands! Highly recommend!!!”
“Ambrosia was great again!! My cats and dogs were very happy with her! She is very flexible and helpful which is great! It was my second time having her watch my pets and I wasn’t worried one bit! She is the best!!”

“An absolutely phenomenal pet sitter. We could not have found a better person to watch our cats while we were gone for several days. Hanna dropped in twice a day to care for our cats while we were out of town. She is super friendly and warm and sweet. Our cats fell in love with her instantly. We invited her husband to visit our place with her , and he was great with the cats too. Hanna was a great communicator. She kept us up-to-date and reached out if she had questions. She also sent us numerous photos and videos of our cats as she cared for them. That’s how we know how good she was with them. For most of us who have pets, they are almost like our kids, and we want to leave them in the best care possible when away. Hanna is the person to take care of your animals. If you are in need of someone to watch your animals while you were away, ask Hanna before anybody else. You will not be disappointed, I promise. We will absolutely reach out to Hanna again for future travels.”
“Laralyn took great care of my puppy! She is very sweet and made sure my puppy had a fun time! She also corrected her when it was necessary. I would definitely book with her again!”

“We love Michelle. Not a single worry when we have her stop in to see our goofy girl Hydi. Very professional and it’s a comfort knowing we can spend a few days away. Kitty is happy as well.”
About: I never grew up with cats, but I've always been acquainted with them through friends and family. I've taken care of cats sparingly since I was a teenager (mostly chilling with them on the couch and feeding them) but actively began working with them on a daily basis in 2024 when I worked as a bather and caretaker in pet boarding. Then, in 2025, we rescued 2 tiny kittens! I did a TON of research, and they're extremely well-balanced. I have experience administering oral medications for cats with my past work experience, as well as bathing, brushing, nail trimming, and how to spot illnesses. My past work experience has been invaluable. I've met cats of all kinds, from Persians to feral strays, and recognized conditions from poisoning (the cat is okay!) to UTIs. I believe what I lack in personal experience I make up for in professional know-how!
“This was our first time working with Alicia, but she came highly recommended, and we can see why! She's a gold-star level communicator, super-responsive, and took care of our cat, even with our driveway covered in a couple of feet of snow!!! We're so grateful for Alicia's commitment to pet care.”
About: I have experience caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving cats space when they like a calmer environment. I pay close attention to behavior and make sure cats feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your cat is doing well.
About: Hi! My name is Sierra, and I am an artist, athlete, and am generally pretty active around town and in community events. I'd love to meet you and your pets! I grew up in a home with cats and have always been a passionate pet owner. My own cat is 17 and healthy, but I love spending time with dogs too. In my teens, in college, and through adulthood, I've pet-sat for many dogs over the years in order to spend more time with them and learn about their behaviors and needs. I've always wanted my own but have been too mobile to make a full-time commitment. My loss is your gain! I've worked with reactive and non-reactive dogs, small dogs and large dogs, and puppies and elderly dogs. I am very comfortable with animals and, due to my active nature, love taking them on walks around town or at the park. I am happy to also stay home with them if they're in their golden years or are less mobile. I will likely want to know a fair bit about your dog or cat when we first meet to ensure they are well cared for in your absence and to ensure I am prepared and aware of their behaviors if we are around other people and/or other animals. The same rules apply for kitties! I love cat sitting too. All in all, I love animals and genuinely enjoy taking them for walks, spending time with them, and making sure they feel loved. I have some experience working with sheep as well, so if you are on a farm or have other livestock, I'd love to help out in that regard too! I hope to own my own small farm someday. Thanks! I am currently working as an artist and researcher, so I have a flexible schedule. This means I can adjust my schedule to suit your needs and can stay overnight if needed. I will likely ask a lot of questions the first time I dog/cat sit for you. Knowing your pet's routine and their preference is very important to me to make sure I am prepared to take good care of them in your absence. I appreciate detailed instructions for house sitting, especially to make sure your pet is as comfortable and happy as can be while you are away. I do not mind if you'd like photo or text updates throughout the time you are away, so you can rest assured your pet is in good hands. I feel the same when I am traveling! For walks and such, I will still have a few questions to ensure I know how to best care for your pet while interacting with other animals and people. I am able-bodied and active and love walks at all times a day to get my (and their) steps in!

“Hanna has been a lifesaver as me and my dog Poppy adjust to the area and with the move! Poppy loves going to Hanna’s and playing with her new friends. Poppy is super anxious around other dogs, but she LOVES Hanna’s pups. It’s such a great feeling as a pet owner to know when I drop Poppy off she’s more excited to be there than she is to be at home!”
“Great day - our pup came home tired and happy. Appreciated the communication about other dogs who would be there. Looking forward to using Summer for our weekend boarding needs!”

“Olivia took wonderful care of our 38 lb, energetic Blue Heeler. She was calm and loving to our dog, and our dog responded in a positve way to her. She sent us pictures of our happy, calm dog during the day, which we appreciated. And we loved that Olivia only has one dog in the house at a time (other than her own sweet little dog). She invited us to use her again, and we will definitely take her up on it.”

“Jeremiah is definitely a dog person. My pup couldn't wait to greet him the second time I hired him, going right up to him and wagging her tail. The surroundings of his place are perfect for the walks he takes her on - lots to sniff and explore. He is very conscientious about securing her with a double leash.Thank you, Jeremiah.”

About: Ive always had pets growing up my whole life, I started watching other people’s pets my last year of high school. I love all animals and I care for them like they are my own. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pet behind when going on vacation, work calls, etc. which is why I keep all owners updated and informed on how their fur babies are doing. I currently work a 9-5, M-F. However my boyfriend gets off work at 3. Which is why I have my availability set to the weekends. I am not opposed to weekdays I just want to be up front about my schedule. I live on a half acre but we are out in the country surrounded by open fields. Therefore we have plenty of room to run, walk, and play, I also have two dogs myself to keep yours company and play! I do crate my own dogs when I leave the house because we have an open pantry and we’ve had trips to the vet because of things being eaten that should not have been… Therefore I prefer to crate dogs when I leave the house.

“Our first visit with Lindsay went really well. Our dog has a lot of anxiety, but he seemed to be very comfortable with her. She sent several texts and picture throughout the day to keep us updated on his progress. 100% recommend.”
“Emily and Ryan did a great job watching Hopscotch. They were easy to communicate with and were flexible with my schedule. I would recommend them if you need someone to watch your dog.”
“Debbie did a great job watching our mini golden doodle while we were having trees cut down. Rosa warmed up to her quickly. Will be bringing Rosa over to her house for some overnights this summer.”

About: Hi, I’m Katie! 🐾 I’m a lifelong animal lover, mom of four, and experienced pet caregiver who genuinely believes our pets are part of the family. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I’m attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, exercise needs, and all those little quirks that make your pet unique. I have experience with dogs, cats, puppies, and a variety of animals through our own busy little homestead. Whether your pup needs a good walk, some playtime, companionship while you’re away, or simply lots of love and attention, I’m happy to help! My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are safe, cared for, and getting plenty of affection while you’re away. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—and I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you don’t miss them too much! ❤️ I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine! I care for my own dogs, cats, ducks, and chickens every day, so I’m very comfortable with the responsibility and consistency that comes with caring for animals. I’m home full-time for most of the day, with only school drop-offs/pick-ups and occasional errands taking me away. Because of that, I have a very flexible schedule and can provide frequent potty breaks, typically every 1–2 hours, as well as regular check-ins, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I love being home and having animals around, so pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle rather than feeling like just another job. 🐾 I tailor care to each pet’s individual needs, personality, routine, and comfort level. For boarding and doggy daycare in my home, pets become part of our household routine with plenty of attention, supervised play, potty breaks, and downtime. I have a large home and a country setting, so there’s room for pets to be comfortable and enjoy their time here. For dog sitting and walks, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I’m home full-time for the most part, so I’m able to provide frequent care and attention rather than leaving pets alone for long stretches. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll communicate with you throughout their stay or visit and am happy to send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing. 🐾
“I don’t think I can say enough good about Haley and Pierce. Pierce is the perfect combination of laid back and playful. He patiently tolerated her initial over-excitement and then ran and played “chase” with her at the beautiful park where Haley took them. Haley was friendly and professional, providing frequent updates and photos. I will most definitely be using Haley again!”
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pet while you're away. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, and following each dog's normal routine and care instructions. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they're in my care, while also giving you peace of mind knowing they're being well taken care of. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm home throughout the day, which gives me plenty of time to provide pets with attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship. I have a flexible schedule and can easily adjust to each pet's normal routine and needs. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone around to make them feel comfortable and cared for while they're away from home. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for someone else's pet. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and given plenty of attention while in my care. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, routines, walks, medications, and any special needs. I also understand that every pet has a different personality, so I give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable in a new environment. I want every owner to have peace of mind knowing their pet is safe, happy, and being treated like part of the family.

“Emilia shows caring with fur boys & girls. She follows my requests with location, allows sniffing, & time for much needed walk/s. Finn is a good soul which goldendoodles are born with. He thanks Emilia for the 30 min. times requested by mom. I will hire her again for future walks when I'm away. Thanks Emilia”
“I love Maegan! She walks both of my dogs (Brookie and Ellie) Monday through Friday and does so good with them! I have a desk job so I wanted someone to come and exercise them for a solid half hour. Both my dogs return warn out and just lie in my office and nap after their walks. She is very caring towards my pups and is very consider of Brooke who is older and sometimes needs some assistance. I will keep returning to Maegan for all my dog walking needs! :)”

“Summer was amazing with Laika!! I really appreciated the thorough communication too. I would highly recommend Summer to anyone who needs some help with their animals!!”
“Hannah was great! She was friendly and reliable, my dog loves her! She came every weekday for 3 weeks and he looked forward to her daily visits! She was always on time and we have already booked some more play dates!”
About: Hi! My name is Audrey! I am a former nurse and used to take care of humans for a living but am pursuing a career change. I now take care of fur babies, but my 7 years of nursing experience has taught me patience, flexibility, and safety skills (as well as making me an expert at cleaning pee and poop). I've been a dog owner and taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I've had multiple dogs growing up and currently own my 10-year old Golden Shepherd Mix rescue, Maxx. It brings me so much joy and happiness to meet any and all dogs/cats and to give them love and attention they deserve. I volunteer at the Humane Society to help socialize those dogs and give them love but also to gain experience meeting as many dogs as possible to learn more on how to identify dog behavior/body language and how to gain their trust when meeting a new person. I also love taking fun pictures, so you will get lots of pictures of your fur baby while you're gone. I also work part time as a barista and will occasionally be working 4 to 8 hr shifts periodically throughout the week, but with enough notice, I can try to adjust my schedule to accommodate for you if your pet can't be alone for long periods of time. I can't imagine a life without having a fur baby, and I hope I get to help take care of yours! I work part time as a barista and my schedule changes every week with shifts varying from 4-8hrs long at a time. With enough notice (usually about 2-3 weeks ahead ideally), I can adjust my schedule to try and accommodate for you especially if your pet can't be alone for long periods of time. I'm willing and able to do any day of the week! I'm fairly flexible, so I'll do my best to get my schedule to work with yours. I live in a cozy 2-bedroom apartment with a lot of space to walk around the apartment complex. There is a fenced in dog runner at this complex too.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—no pup too big or small! I’ve also walked cats, administered meds, brushed teeth, and provided loving care for seniors. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I’m experienced and happy to help. My fenced yard offers safe outdoor time, and I treat every animal like family. I currently have full availability and offer flexible, reliable care for your pets! I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, walks, daycare, and more—even same-day appointments. I do have little ones at home, so we may step out briefly for park outings, but never for long. Your pet will still get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is dog/cat - friendly, with a securely fenced yard, located on a quiet, low-traffic street. I clean with pet-safe products to ensure a healthy environment. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat your space with the same respect and care as I do my own. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in safe, loving hands.
About: I have taken care of dogs since my first dog “Beau” when I was 8 years of age. I’ve since had two beautiful adopted puppies. I look forward to training or assisting with any dog. I can assist with cats as well. My fiancé recently adopted a kitten, and the kitten then adopted me. I am available anytime to take care of your loved pet. I have reliable transportation and will be able to adjust to any schedule needed. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do walk to the beach every day. I also have a carriage that I walk my kitten in if that is needed.
“Constance is always so attentive to Hudson’s needs. He’s been working his way back from an injury and she has been so perceptive in knowing when he’s done and ready to rest. He’s always so happy to see her and loves her even more for all the treats he gets when they are back from their walk.”
“Shawn braved the December snowstorms several times a day to care for our four little fur babies. She is a true pet-sitting extraordinaire—extremely knowledgeable, reliable, and devoted.”
About: Having grown up with pets, I have a lifelong passion for animal care. From a young age, my siblings and I took on the responsibility of feeding, bathing, walking, playing with, and cleaning up after our pets. This experience taught me the importance of attentive and loving care. Additionally, my neighbors entrusted me with their beloved pets when they’ve gone on vacation. I’ve experience with rabbits, have one currently named Ms Bunny, she is eight. I had a guinea pig, named Master Splinter that lived to be 6. Kept and maintained a fish tank in my mid to late 20’s, contained lots of neon tetra, ghost shrimp, and a dwarf gourami! I have full availability to ensure loving care for your pets! My love for animals motivates me to ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Rest assured, your furry friends will be well cared for under my watch. I am happy to care for your pets in their home where they are most comfortable. I love going for walks, playing with toys, and/or lounging around when it’s quiet.
About: I grew up with pugs and treated them like my kids — Bruce, Tobias, and Otto were my world. I’ve cared for senior dogs, playful puppies, and even dogs with special needs. Now living in the U.S. and missing my own pup back in Brazil, I’d love to share all my love and experience with your furry friend. I’ll treat your dog like family — with patience, affection, and lots of belly rubs! I recently moved from Brazil to support my husband’s new job, so I’m currently taking some time off from work. That means I have plenty of time — and love — to give your pup! I’m available in the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings, until the sun sets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every dog as if they were my own — with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I always make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I follow routines closely, respect your rules, and create a calm, cozy environment where pets can truly feel at home.
About: I grew up with all sorts of animals - dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, fish, etc. In college, I adopted my first cat. She developed diabetes so I have experience administering insulin injections. I have adopted 3 pitbull mixes. Bindi was my love and then we added Ranger. He was a foster failure! My current boy Jax is 3 years old. Being a pitbull mom, I obviously have extensive experience with larger breeds including leash aggressiveness. I participated in basic training classes with all of them. Also, living in a condo in Chicago meant I had to walk my own dogs several times a day for exercise and potty breaks, no fenced yard there. I have a Zoology degree from MSU, have volunteered at PAWS, Mobile Mutts and Shedd Aquarium while living in Chicago. I recently relocated to the St. Joseph area from the Detroit suburbs where I am from. I also lived in Chicago for many years. I am looking for some extra part-time work that is flexible and that I enjoy. At this time, I am offering drop in and dog walking services. I currently work full time during the week. I love animals and will be respectful of all requests with your animals and your home.
About: i have pet sat for years and i decided to turn it into a career i enjoy spending time will all animals and really getting to know each one’s personality i try to be as flexible as possible so i can be relied on at all times. pet sitting is my primary but i also do hair on the side! I do have a daughter born feb 2026 that will have to be with me so it is important you and your pet are okay with that! i make sure to spend all my time with them to develop a relationship between myself and the pet. i try to do extra fun things with them, like play tug of war with their favorite toy or if they like more cuddles i provide extra snuggles. i don’t mind commuting to another home where the animal is more comfortable. if they want a walk i will take them on a long walk to the dog park and play ball with them. whatever they need i will put first!
About: I have experience caring for animals and enjoy making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping up with each dog’s normal routine. I understand every dog has a different personality and energy level, and I’m patient, attentive, and happy to give them the care and attention they need. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands. I’m currently working around 30 hours a week. I work right down town in Saint Joesph Michigan. My schedule is very flexible. I work between five and six hour shifts. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I care for pets in their own home based on their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, and any special instructions. I’ll treat your home with respect and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“Alicia was very good. I have never had somebody walk Gunther before. After meetiing her and hearing her experience with animal, I was confident she would be comfortable with Gunther. I have a 75lb mix 50% Boxer and 50% German Shepherd could be a challenge. I was very pleased with her knowledge and experience. I recommend her at the highest level for her services.”
About: Hi! My name is Sierra, and I am an artist, athlete, and am generally pretty active around town and in community events. I'd love to meet you and your pets! I grew up in a home with cats and have always been a passionate pet owner. My own cat is 17 and healthy, but I love spending time with dogs too. In my teens, in college, and through adulthood, I've pet-sat for many dogs over the years in order to spend more time with them and learn about their behaviors and needs. I've always wanted my own but have been too mobile to make a full-time commitment. My loss is your gain! I've worked with reactive and non-reactive dogs, small dogs and large dogs, and puppies and elderly dogs. I am very comfortable with animals and, due to my active nature, love taking them on walks around town or at the park. I am happy to also stay home with them if they're in their golden years or are less mobile. I will likely want to know a fair bit about your dog or cat when we first meet to ensure they are well cared for in your absence and to ensure I am prepared and aware of their behaviors if we are around other people and/or other animals. The same rules apply for kitties! I love cat sitting too. All in all, I love animals and genuinely enjoy taking them for walks, spending time with them, and making sure they feel loved. I have some experience working with sheep as well, so if you are on a farm or have other livestock, I'd love to help out in that regard too! I hope to own my own small farm someday. Thanks! I am currently working as an artist and researcher, so I have a flexible schedule. This means I can adjust my schedule to suit your needs and can stay overnight if needed. I will likely ask a lot of questions the first time I dog/cat sit for you. Knowing your pet's routine and their preference is very important to me to make sure I am prepared to take good care of them in your absence. I appreciate detailed instructions for house sitting, especially to make sure your pet is as comfortable and happy as can be while you are away. I do not mind if you'd like photo or text updates throughout the time you are away, so you can rest assured your pet is in good hands. I feel the same when I am traveling! For walks and such, I will still have a few questions to ensure I know how to best care for your pet while interacting with other animals and people. I am able-bodied and active and love walks at all times a day to get my (and their) steps in!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of multiple different breeds since I was 11 years old. My family always relied on me to watch over dogs even when away so it included walks, feeding, grooming, playing, etc. I even own a dog of my own and provide other dogs with the same loving care I provide my own. Pet care would work best for me on some days during the week where I’m available between 7am to 5pm. For weekends my availability will vary. The instructions given for your pets will be followed. If client does not have a fenced yard for dog to play in or to be out in I will walk the dog for as long as needed or wanted by client.

“After our normal sitter wasn't able to watch our dogs I almost cancelled the trip until my husband found Hanna on Rover. She had great reviews and our dog meet and greet went well. I could tell she loves animals and I had a great feeling. I got regular updates along the way. I would highly recommend and use Hanna for our services again.”
“I was very pleased with my dog’s adventure. At our meet and greet Remington was very comfortable with Jeremiah. On the day I dropped him off, Remington had no issues with my leaving and as I drove away he and Jeremiah were off taking a walk. When I picked my dog up, he seemed very relaxed and appeared to have enjoyed his stay. Jeremiah is flexible with drop off and pick up times, which is so helpful when traveling. I have no hesitation in leaving my dog with Jeremiah in the future.”
“Jenny took such attentive care of Chula when Chula felt under the weather. I am grateful that my pups were loved and cared for while I was out of town. It helped ease my mind considerably.”
“Christina is wonderful. Nothing fazes her. We left our 13 year old mostly deaf, partially blind and very demanding King Charles spaniel with her for two weeks and she had no trouble at all. We had never boarded him before, so we were really happy to see photos of him running around her back yard and interacting with Christina’s dog and others. So good for him. Highly recommend!”
“Our high energy sweetheart can be overstimulated if the people around her don't know how to interact with her, but she did great with Alydia! We were traveling to visit family and we were nervous about leaving our dog with someone new, but we didn't have a thing to worry about! Alydia asked all the right questions and our dog loved being with her. Will definitely book her again when we're in the area. Thanks so much!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs. Either it being within the family or friends. I have experience with all sizes and ages. I have no concern adapting to your dogs unique needs. I work partly remote through the week. Allowing for pee breaks throughout the day. I have weekends open most of the time. It will be no problem to provide a comfortable stay for your pup. I have a fenced yard and safe house in a great neighborhood. I currently have one medium dog full time and my girlfriend has two small dogs here part time.
“Leandra and Mark did an amazing job with our puppy. They are so personal with clients. They took such good care of our baby. I definitely will book again. Their availability is great especially for a puppy. They love playing with the puppy. They treated our puppy like he was their own. I look forward to them watching him again soon!”
“Our 7 month old lab had never stayed anywhere without us overnight but Clara’s amazing setup, calm and friendly presence, and the company of other awesome pups made it so enjoyable. We will be back again and again!”
“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”
“Nicholas was so great at taking care of my dog and walking me through my first time using Rover! He was always easy to get in touch with, and I’ll plan on reaching out to him again when I have to travel without my dog.”
“Very kind and welcoming. Really showed they cared for and enjoyed our nervous little dog. Everything went well, and we got just the right amount of pics while gone. Highly recommend!”
“Daisy was the happiest I've ever seen her with someone else taking care of her. Emily is a treasure that I found. I'll be using her often. Thank you Emily! And her dogs were awesome with Daisy!”
“Lindsay was a great communicator and caregiver. We were updated daily with photos and notes of Rascal’s well being. We were called out of town for a funeral and she was able to provide last minute care. We will definitely use her again.”
“Deb did a wonderful job watching our mini-goldendoodle, Rosa for her first overnight. She kept us informed on how she was doing and made Rosa feel right at home. We are so lucky to have found someone as caring and responsible as Deb.”
“Our go to to sitter for our boys. We never have any worries or concerns when at Madison’s and they always come back exhausted and happy! Can’t go wrong with booking them for your dog needs!”
