“Michael is an amazing sitter! He did a great job watching our dog for over a week. He kindly agreed to meet with us for a meet & greet prior to our dogs stay. He kept us updated with pictures and videos. I could tell my dog was happy with her stay and was well cared for. I highly recommend and definitely will rebook! Thanks, Michael!”
“Kateri is my go-to! She goes above and beyond every single stay. Kateri’s dog, Mazey plays so well with my 9.5 month pup. I love that Kateri gives me updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos. She also sent home a report card with a full summary of the visit (it’s still hanging on my fridge! 🥹) Kateri really does think of everything when it comes to your dogs- and has always given me peace of mind knowing my pup will be well taken care of. She’s knowledgeable, super easy to work with, and as kind as can be!”
“Outstanding!!, Patricia and her husband were very kind and welcoming to our fur baby, she sent updates with pictures and that was much appreciated. We will definitely use them again”
“Jason and Lauren were excellent! They took Jaxson on short notice so I could tend to a family emergency. Jaxson gets daily insulin shots and was on a couple types of eye drops. I appreciated them checking in with updates on how his medication administration went and how Jaxson was acclimating in their home. They also have an amazing back yard that’s any pup’s dream! I look forward to booking with them again.”
“Ashlee was wonderful. They were so calm immediately with meeting Ashlee for the first time. She was so sweet to them. This was their first stay. They were very calm when I picked them up. This was so refreshing and much different from their previous sitter and they were with her for three years. Plan to ask her to sit again.”

“Denise treated my pups as her own. I am truly happy I found her. They loved her and came home very spoiled. Couldn't have felt better about leaving them with her for the week. Thanks again, Denise!”
“Marci and her family took such great care of our dog, Lulu. We could tell from the first moment that they would provide so much love and attention. Their big backyard was perfect for Lulu to run and play, and she also got lots of snuggles inside. We received pictures and updates each day. You will have peace of mind knowing that your dog is happy and in great hands!”
“Dogs came back in excellent condition. Extra food and treats were returned. Fenced yard and friendly dogs in the home. Andrew kept us posted while we were away. Highly recommend.”
“Sherlin was great and she was happy with my Buffy. She gave Buffy a great report card. Sherlin sent pictures & updates on Buffys stay which quieted my fears. Would definitely use Sherlin again and Sherlin would welcome Buffy back anytime.”
“I am pleased that Myles was well cared for by Jim. Myles received the same pampered attention with Jima as he receives at home. It was also comforting to receive periodic photos to see how well Myles adjusted to his new environment. I would use Jim again in the future.”
“Jan watched our dog Cash over Memorial Day weekend, Jan kept us up to date and sent pictures and videos of Cash. My husband and I both felt very comfortable leaving Cash with her. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing he was in good hands! She was so sweet and we could tell she really loved dogs. We will be booking again throughout the summer!”
“Jared was superb! He took our dog to the beach! And, we got photos everyday. Communication was speedy and he was flexible with sorting out pick up and drop off times.”
“Amazing experience. My dog, Lucy, was so loved and cared for. She had a blast. The only downside is she didn’t want to come home and wanted to stay with her new friends. LOL. Highly recommend!”
“Tyler was great with Abby, it was our first time leaving her without family and you could never tell she missed us! Tyler sent lots of photos and worked with our plane arrival to accommodate us. She came home happy, with a new toy and doesn’t seem the least bit nervous about us leaving again. Thank you!”
“As always, Tim and Lisa are amazing with your furry child. Bailey always enjoys her stays and we highly recommend bring your furry child to them. Their family will treat them as their own.”
“Kim was so warm and welcoming, overall just so understanding and patient with my Aslan. She always kept me posted with pictures and updates. I felt so comfortable with her taking care of my cat. I'm so very thankful!!!”
“Karrie sent me so many pictures, I loved it. She was open and honest to any incidents that happened good or bad, Gray tends to get herself into a few messes and I was notified of them which made me feel at ease and able to trust Karrie. Gray was living the life at her stay. Thank you again!!”

She would send the latest news, photos, videos of them. it didn't seem to take them long to warm up to her and get comfortable around her. overall, she put me at easy leaving my babies with her while I had to be out of town. I would reach out to her again when needed in the future!”

“Adrienne was very thorough in taking care of our fur babies. She went above and beyond telling us how our cats were doing and sending pictures with each visit. She interacted with the cats and even the antisocial one liked her. As anxious fur baby parents, the peace of mind that she gave us was priceless. We will definitely be rebooking with her and highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies.”
“Kyla helped my taking care of my two cats for the second time! I asked her again since she is really responsible, warm and careful! She took a lot of pictures to let me know how the cats look and feel every time and send very detailed and customized summary for the cats every time!!! I can feel she loves them and my very shy cats like her!”
“Andrew was fantastic! He was so detailed and he kept in touch each day. he really understood my difficult diabetic cat and made sure to show love to our other two. Having someone who comes in to give insulin really allowed me to enjoy our time away with no worries if we would have to come home early. We are so grateful and will definitely be booking again. Thanks again Andrew!!”

“Naomi was incredible. She was very professional and friendly taking care of our large family of cats. We truly appreciated the comfort of knowing she was coming over to see them twice a day to feed and check in on them and even staying over night at times. We highly recommend having Naomi take care of your loved animals and will be using her again.”
“Maria was a great sitter! She took very good care of our senior cat and sent great pictures each time. We could tell Lilly was well taken care when we got home and we would definitely rebook Maria for our next vacation!”

“Shannon was the best. I felt very comfortable leaving my kitties in her hands. She sent pictures every day and was always in communication. Definitely would hire her again.”

We hope to use Stephanie again when we are away in the future! Thank you so much Steph!!!”
“This was our first time using a pet sitter, other than family, and we are extremely pleased with the experience. Cassie went above and beyond, taking care of our cats and home while we were away. Even our very shy cat, who takes days to come out while visitors are here, was out within a day and looking forward to her visits. Regular updates, photos, and personable accounts of the visits all added up to easing our minds about how the cats were doing, and we can't thank Cassie enough for her care of 2 of our furry family members! Highly recommend and will be calling Cassie for sure next time we need someone to watch the cats.”

“Michael was absolutely amazing! We have two Australian Shepherds which are notoriously anxious and high energy. As soon as they met Michael they were at ease and ready to walk with him not caring that we were leaving. Michael was very flexible on pick up and drop off times and ended up having our pups for about 12 hours and we got pictures throughout the day of them playing and having fun. Our one pup has epilepsy and Michael was able to give him his medication without a issue. Would highly recommend him and plan to use him again in the future!”
About: My husband Tim and I both grew up in households where our cats and dogs were treated as part of the family. Our neighbors, friends, and family members trust that we are a phone call away to either go to their homes to feed and take their dogs on walks or to have them stay with us overnight. We have experience with training puppies, caring for older dogs with special needs, and taking care of animals with allergies and special dietary needs. We want to extend our home and hearts to your beloved pets and use our personal experience to ensure they feel secure and loved in your absence. We can provide daily exercise, administer medication, and even help with potty training. We are always available to receive calls and texts when you are away, and we will update you as often as you would like so you can see what your pet is up to throughout the day and enjoy your time away from your furbaby without worrying that they aren't receiving the attention and love they deserve. We are home full-time (Lisa works from home and Tim is retired) and are available for all your pet's wants and needs. We live in a clean, stress-free, spacious home in a quiet neighborhood with our two teenage kids, dog Griffin, and cat Monk.
“Pat took such good care of our boy! As soon as I saw her clipboard to start Taka's file, I knew he'd be in safe hands. She asked all the right questions and clearly has lots of experience. I really appreciated all the photos and updates. Can't wait to book with Pat again!”
“Kateri was wonderful with our 5 month old lab puppy! You can tell she really cares about dogs and is very experienced, kind, and professional. We would definitely have her take care of Wally again!!”
“Archie usually takes awhile to warm up to people and can be kind of stand offish until then. However he IMMEDIATELY took to Patricia and her husband, letting them pet his face and going up to them for cuddles. I've never seen him do that before! He loved them right away and they were great! Will def book again”
“I cannot thank you enough for providing such kind, gentle, and attentive care to our puppy while we were away. Puppies can be a handful, but you made her feel right at home with lots of treats (including your own!), plenty of playtime, and a large dose of patience and understanding. Your extensive experience working with dogs of different ages, sizes, and temperaments really showed. She was so relaxed and happy when we returned. Thank you also for sending frequent (hourly!) updates with photos. We felt completely at ease while she was in your care. We would be thrilled to work with you again and enthusiastically recommend you to others.”
“Our Bichon, Jeffrey walked into Denise's home and didn't even say goodbye! He felt completely at home! The backyard is completely fenced in and just so charming! We got pictures of Jeffrey relaxing and napping while we were out. We didn't worry about him at all!”
“Great Care! Marci was fantastic and she even made my dog a personalized Bandana. My dog was well cared for and got enough exercise in her yard she slept the whole way home. Highly Recommend!”
“Karrie has been our beloved dog sitter for years. First time with our new dogs. I felt totally comfortable leaving them in her care. They came back cheerful and tired! Usually they pull me up the staicase, this time I could keep up with them. They had a lovely time at the beach and Karrie showed us videos of them romping joyfully!”

Prior to that I worked at a vets office for 1 & 1/2 years and before that, a Luxury Pet Hotel for 3 & 1/2 years. I have cared for 1000's of dogs, all sizes, ages and breeds. I posses a wide array of skills and knowledge, ensuring all pets are safe and comfortable. I have managed large play groups, broken up altercations, cleaned wounds and given many forms of medications. I have also cared for senior dogs, injured dogs, and sick dogs. There is not much I haven't experienced over the years. I have also owned 4 dogs of my own as an adult, I currently have 2 fur babies! Pet sitting and dog walking is my full time job.

About: Caring for dogs and cats fills my heart with joy. I believe every animal is unique and deserves extra love, support, and attention — especially when their humans can’t be there. I take pride in offering attentive, personalized care for every dog and cat I watch. As someone who works part-time from home, I’m able to offer full-time attention and care to your beloved pet. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and loved. In my home, your dog will receive 3–4 walks a day (more if needed). We’ll also enjoy playtime in the backyard on-leash, and on nice days, we can head down to the beach for some fresh air and fun! In your home, I’m available for daily dog walks or twice-daily visits to feed and care for your cat. During each visit, I’ll spend quality time with your pets — whether that’s belly rubs, playtime, or just keeping them company so they feel safe and loved while you're away.
“Top tier service! This was my first time using this service and I am so elated I ran into Sterlin. She provided constant communication about the activities she was doing with Bear which made me extremely comfortable and relieved. I also think Bear fell in love as well. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet as if they are there own there’s no need to look any further…YOU FOUND HER!”
About: Over the years, I've had the pleasure of caring for a variety of dogs. Each experience has taught me valuable lessons in responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing proper nutrition, exercise, and affection. Whether it's scheduling regular vet visits, grooming sessions, or simply spending quality time playing and bonding with them, I've found joy in ensuring their well-being and happiness. Each dog has its own unique personality and needs, making every caregiving experience both rewarding and educational. I currently work as a virtual full time speech therapist in the school setting which allows me to work from home and gives me the ability to care for animals even while I’m working. I am available any day of the week or on weekends. Caring for pets in both my own home and clients' homes involves several responsibilities. Firstly, I ensure their environment is safe, clean, and suitable for the pet. This includes providing comfortable bedding, fresh water, and a balanced diet tailored to their nutritional requirements. Regular exercise and mental stimulation are crucial, so I schedule playtime and walks as needed. Most importantly, I strive to create a loving and supportive environment where pets feel secure and cared for, fostering a strong bond based on trust and companionship.
About: I’ve had dogs before, so I’m comfortable managing and caring for them daily. I also grew up around about 16 dogs, which helped me develop patience, confidence, and the ability to handle different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I understand routines like feeding, walks, supervision, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. During the school year, I’m available before and after school. I leave for school in the morning and return around 2:40 PM, so I’m dependable for afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a calm environment for every pet in my care. I follow owner instructions carefully, keep pets supervised, and pay close attention to their behavior and comfort.

“Kateri is my go-to! She goes above and beyond every single stay. Kateri’s dog, Mazey plays so well with my 9.5 month pup. I love that Kateri gives me updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos. She also sent home a report card with a full summary of the visit (it’s still hanging on my fridge! 🥹) Kateri really does think of everything when it comes to your dogs- and has always given me peace of mind knowing my pup will be well taken care of. She’s knowledgeable, super easy to work with, and as kind as can be!”
“Outstanding!!, Patricia and her husband were very kind and welcoming to our fur baby, she sent updates with pictures and that was much appreciated. We will definitely use them again”
“Jason and Lauren were excellent! They took Jaxson on short notice so I could tend to a family emergency. Jaxson gets daily insulin shots and was on a couple types of eye drops. I appreciated them checking in with updates on how his medication administration went and how Jaxson was acclimating in their home. They also have an amazing back yard that’s any pup’s dream! I look forward to booking with them again.”
“Jeffrey had such a great time with Pat, we were afraid he might not want to come home! Pat kept us updated with pictures of Jeffrey making himself at home! We were able to leave for two days and one night without one second of worry! Just a wonderful experience for Jeffrey and us!”
“Dogs came back in excellent condition. Extra food and treats were returned. Fenced yard and friendly dogs in the home. Andrew kept us posted while we were away. Highly recommend.”
“Jan watched our dog Cash over Memorial Day weekend, Jan kept us up to date and sent pictures and videos of Cash. My husband and I both felt very comfortable leaving Cash with her. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing he was in good hands! She was so sweet and we could tell she really loved dogs. We will be booking again throughout the summer!”
“Jared was superb! He took our dog to the beach! And, we got photos everyday. Communication was speedy and he was flexible with sorting out pick up and drop off times.”
“Amazing experience. My dog, Lucy, was so loved and cared for. She had a blast. The only downside is she didn’t want to come home and wanted to stay with her new friends. LOL. Highly recommend!”
“Tyler was great with Abby, it was our first time leaving her without family and you could never tell she missed us! Tyler sent lots of photos and worked with our plane arrival to accommodate us. She came home happy, with a new toy and doesn’t seem the least bit nervous about us leaving again. Thank you!”
“As always, Tim and Lisa are amazing with your furry child. Bailey always enjoys her stays and we highly recommend bring your furry child to them. Their family will treat them as their own.”
“Kim was so warm and welcoming, overall just so understanding and patient with my Aslan. She always kept me posted with pictures and updates. I felt so comfortable with her taking care of my cat. I'm so very thankful!!!”
“Rebecca and her husband were amazing with my dog. They were available on short notice without having met us before and as soon as I met them I knew Drummond would be in good hands. They kept in contact with me and sent pictures which just made it easy to relax during my vacation. I highly recommend them and will definitely be asking for their help again. If I could give them 6 stars instead of 5 I would!”
“As always, my baby was safe and secure. I’m afraid to say she’s the best because she may never have openings! She really takes your dog and make them hers for the time they are there. My baby ‘Bear’ was a shelter dog so I was extremely worried. Not a problem! She took care of our old man (old Rottie) and after that, I have no hesitations leaving my dog with her. Thanks for caring for my baby like he was your baby!”
“Cindy took care of our 10 week old puppy and gave him excellent care. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout his stay. Cindy was easy to communicate with and very welcoming!”
“We attended a wedding over a weekend and Katherine and John were so welcoming to Zoey! We contacted them for a meet and greet and they were very agreeable. They were accomadating to our quirky schedule and very easy to work with. Zoey had a fantastic time at their home and we enjoyed the photos and updates sent to us . This was our first Rover experience and I’d say it was a success and hope to use Katherine and John again in the near future”
“Kristen is an amazing dog sitter! I got a lot of pictures and updates which put me at ease on how much fun my dog was having! It’s great to know that your dog is in wonderful hands!”
