“Charlie loved spending the day with Drew and his family! You can tell they are a dog loving family! Charlie loved lap time and interacting with Drew’s family. We’re heading back for a weekend stay soon.”
“I can’t say thank you enough times! Ben and Jennifer did a great job. We received videos and updates without even asking. Our little Frida had a great time and we know they love what they do. We will be more than happy to recommend and will continue to work with them!”
“So great and so easy. She could tell our pup was anxious via her doggy cam and came home early to help settle her. I would not have expected that and am so grateful. Definitely hope to be in touch again!!”
“Tyler was quick with his communication and made me feel comfortable about leaving my 4-legged kid with him. My dog fell asleep on the 20 minute car ride home so I knew she got some good exercise.”
“Andrea is great! She is very responsive and sent me a lot of photos while caring for my senior small dog. She pays close attention to instructions and medications.”
“David was great to work with and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup in his hands. He consistently communicated with us providing updates which gave us peace of mind that Bo was in good company & care.”
“Andria and her family are simply phenomenal rover sitters. Our dog has severe storm anxiety and we left during a very stormy week. They were incredibly accommodating to his needs including unfortunate GI issues. They treat him as their own and when we went to pick him up he didn’t want to come with us and preferred to stay on the stairs getting pet and loved by them. Absolutely recommend them to anyone seeking a home away from home for their pup.”
“Wonderful family! Needed help watching our dog for 1.5 days over the Memorial Day weekend with less than a week to go and Erin and Brandon sure helped out! Communication was great throughout and even before the stay! Our anxious pup seemed at ease with everyone in the family from first meet and I could tell she was being well taken care of just from the pics. Everything about the stay was easy and I already told them that I’d be requesting them again in the near future!”
“Rebecca once again was a great sitter for my lab Link! She is very attentive to the dogs that she cares for and always keeps us updated. I can always rest assure that Link is in good hands when he's in her care. We will definitely being using her in the future! Thank you Rebecca!”
About: We have been around dogs our whole lives. Tony and I both have had dogs since we were kids. We now have 3, Togo, Sadie and Louie and they love meeting new friends. We have a fenced in yard so are able to let them out often. We also will take them on walks if they are able. We care for all of our pets by treating them like our human kids and loving on them! We will walk them and give treats if they are able.
“Holly & Jeremy took care of my dog, Lola while I was away on vacation. They were amazing and sent lots of picture updates throughout Lola’s stay! Highly recommend them!! Will definitely book through them again :)”
“My Jazzy was reluctant to leave Linda and Bosley when I picked her up today. She loves her stays with them and I am able to relax when I’m away knowing that she is so happy with them.”
“Michelle was fantastic with Juniper. Juniper is a super nervous dog and Michelle was very patient with her. Gave me plenty of updates knowing how nervous I was. Will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”

“This is the second time Alison helping with our cats, bearded dragon and fish. She even helped with an unexpected cat accident and cleaned up for us. We will definitely work with her in the future.”

“Amazing as always! I’m pretty sure the boys were sad when I came home and it wasn’t Brittney! She’s fantastic with my boys, playing with them, giving treats, and plenty of love!”
About: I've been around cats for as long as I can remember! My grandfather was always adopting new cats, and I'd always love to play with them, cuddle with them, and always make sure they never felt lonely. Now, with 4 cats in my home, I'm never getting enough cat attention, and I'm more than open to coming and taking care of your cat as well! Elizabeth has always been around cats as well! She has always had a soft spot for them, even though she wasn't able to have one. Now that she lives on her own, she was able to get the cat she's always wanted and more!
“Angelina did a wonderful job checking in on my three cats while I was on vacation. She sent lots of photos and updated me on how my cats were doing while I was away, which took a lot of weight and stress off my shoulders. Thank you very much! Would happily request again for any drop-in needs.”
“Mara was fantastic caring for my kitties while we were gone! She stepped up and provided excellent care for my cat, Ria, while she was recovering from an unexpected medical issue. I look forward to working with Mara again!”
“Contacted Matthew somewhat last minute and he did an amazing job watching my two kitties! Very friendly introduction and professional service for my kitties. Would definitely book again in the future.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years. I often dog sit for my parents and friends. I am very adaptable to the needs of any animal! I currently work full time day shift and always have weekends off. On the weekends, we like to take walks to the park to play or just stay home and cuddle up on the couch and watch movies. I have a fenced in backyard. I work 10 minutes from home so I am free to stop in and let dogs out throughout the day.
About: I have always been around animals and have had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and even birds. I really enjoy taking care of all animals and providing excellent service. My family has a bird, two shih tzus, and a cat. I have frequently been around bigger breeds as well so I am comfortable with any-sized pet. I have experience walking other people's dogs and pet sitting for family and family friends. I am busy this summer preparing for college in the fall, but I wanted something that I care about to fill some of my free time. I am also saving up for college expenses. I would love to make pet sitting/walking a major part of my life. I would be able to watch pets at the owners' home. I will be able to watch them overnight, and or come over to check on them as well as taking walks and playing with them.

“Rhea was fantastic with Dodger! I needed a sitter within two hours of reaching out to her and she made it happen. Very grateful for her. She's great, trust her with your pup.”
“Matt and Angela took great care of my dog Osi! Osi and their dog, Alfie, had so much fun together. Osi is definitely looking forward to his next play date. Highly recommend Matt and Angela!”
“Jennifer gave Roxie breakfast and dinner every day. I think my dog liked to play with kids and other dogs. They have a big yard, so she enjoyed in the yard. I think she had a good time there. I would like to use that dog care when we go to Rochester. Thank you very much!!”
“Andria's family and dog are all very friendly towards my puppy. Nori had a blast there. He got home and fell asleep within 30 minutes, so I didn't have to spend a lot of time playing with him in the evening:) Andria also captured a few great photos of Nori running in the snow with his new friend. Love the photos!”
About: I do have one cat, she is two years old. I have grown up with dogs, 1-2 dogs always in the house. I have 3 kids ages 2,2, and 5, they have been around animals since they were born. They love animals and do really well with them. I have a busy schedule during the week, but looking to help out on the weekends when I can. My kids enjoy the extra company. My backyard is fenced in. Pets can be allowed on the furniture, but will adjust to the clients instructions. I can crate them as well.
“Incredibly accommodating, as Mayo was not. David worked around our ever changing and opaque interactions with Mayo. The care was so attentive I am not sure our pooch was ready to leave. We have never boarded our (abused) rescue dog and David’s care made this part of our Rochester experience absolutely calming and care free. If I could give seven stars I would and I am sure our dog would agree. Job well done. Thank You”
“Tina is very responsive during the booking period and easily reachable while your dog is in her care. She is kind to the dogs and attentive to their needs. Our puppy loved spending time at her house for day care and we would definitely recommend Tina to other owners.”
About: I’ve been around and taken care of animals all my life especially dogs! I couldn’t imagine my life without them! They truly are a part of the family! I work remotely and am home day and night unless I’m transporting my kids to activities or events. This makes for a very flexible schedule to take care of pets! I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for running and playing. I have 3 dogs to help keep your pet company! I also have dog beds for resting and a foldable crate stored in case it’s needed.
About: Relocated here from Iowa. Enjoy working with different dogs. Pet lover. I completed 6 months of Veterinarian Assistant classes online. Life happened and I had to take a pause. But I am thinking about going back and finish obtaining my associates degree in the field. So whether it be house sitting with the animals or simply doing some walking or activities, I don't mind and will enjoy my time with them. Its something I enjoy as one of my hobbies. I am available during the week days. Every other weekend I work night shift at this time. I enjoy play time with pets because they too have different personalities. Love Dogs. We cuddle mostly and play. Take walks outside. Play fetch with their toys. It's cool to go to the backyard and be socialable with nature. I think it helps with sensory awareness.
About: I’ve been taking care of my family's and friend’s dogs for about 5 years now and would love the chance to care for more!

My experience comes from my own pets and checking on friend’s pets while they are away. I am available in the mornings before work, can be flexible about lunch and breaks to leave and check on pets and end my work day at 5 (Mon-Fri). If I go into work, it is often on a Wednesday and my parents come check on my dog while I am away for the day. My home: I have a fenced yard, 1 older dog, and gates in the house to keep the dogs on the main floor. I do not have a crate or dog toys. My dog prefers long walks, scratches and a good nap. My dog is a large poodle breed.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs for over 10 years. I have a pup of my own named Joker who is looking forward to hanging with new pups. I look forward to helping people with their pups! I do work full time but am home by 3-330 and let the pups run in a fully fenced back yard. I have neighbors that also let dogs out during the day if needed. I have a fully fenced back yard and will follow your schedule for your dogs needs. Your dog will get lots of play time as I am home a majority of the time outside of work.
“I absolutely loved my experience with Andrew. My husband had major surgery and our Winnie got a little stir crazy at the hotel. Andrew treated her with such love and care. He treated her like one of his pack members. I have never left my dog with anyone but family before so I was a little nervous. After a couple pictures and texts from Andrew I could tell he had been spending quality time with Winnie and knew her quirky personality. We have to come to Mayo Clinic often for testing and I will not hesitate to use Andrew's services again!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”
About: I have been a pet sitter for many years. Also, I have always had a dog and cat of my own since I was a young child. I will treat your pet as if it was my own.

About: Pets have always been part of my life, from a yellow lab and a guinea pig in my early years to the toy havapoo and fish I have today. I've been a cat volunteer with Paws and Claws Humane Society since June, 2024 and I really enjoy spending time with the cats there. I also have some experience dog sitting for family and friends. I'm currently working part-time and my schedule varies by week. I work 4-7 hours a day and around 20 a week so I'll have time to take care of your pets! I care for pets in my client’s home by following their normal routine as closely as possible, keeping their space clean and secure, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their family is away. I provide fresh water, meals, walks or litter box care, playtime, medication if needed, and regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I also respect your home by cleaning up after myself and leaving everything as I found it, or better.
“Lluvia has been wonderful, responds promptly to any inquiries, very knowledgeable and goes over and beyond. Highly recommend walker. I can't thank her enough for all she has done.”
About: I have always loved dogs since I was a kid. I was always reading books and watching tv shows like "Dogs 101" to learn about the different breeds and needs. I would also help out with any family members or family friend's dog(s) that needed watching. Ever since I was 16 years old I have been sitting dogs and every time my parents leave for vacation, I will watch the family dog for as long as they need. I believe dogs deserve the utmost love and care while they owners are away, insuring a happy reunion. I'm currently available all day, everyday. I can visit your pet in the morning, afternoon, and night depending on what fits their care the best. I can provide a safe, comfortable environment as making a dog feel safe and secure in their own home is top priority. I can give baths, give medication orally, play, explore, and love them generously. I will make sure there will be as least of a disturbance possible when I visit clients home, making sure it is the same as when they left. Pets deserve the most love and top care while their owners are away.
