“This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone. Cassandra made the process super easy. She sent many videos and pictures of my girl. I will use her again in the future.”
“Fernando was very accommodating and communicated a lot while he watched our babies. He sent lots of photos and was so kind to our pups we will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Nicole was an excellent pet sitter. She sent me pictures and daily updates about Cinnamon, and she took her out on walks and took good care of her. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to others.”
“Cera was amazing with my puppy. He isn't even a year old yet and this was his very first time away from us. He was timid at first and Cera was always communicating how he was doing and sending pictures. I felt so good leaving him with someone that loves him like her own. I would trust Cera with any furry friend. She was absolutely amazing!”
“We were desperate last minute for someone to watch our dog on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We reached out to Lydianis and her husband Alex on Rover. They were very quick to respond and continued with good communication throughout the entire time they had my dog. They took the time, at a very busy time of year, to meet us on the Sunday before at a local park and introduced their beautiful Lab Chase to us. Seeing how well they handled Chase and how understanding they were of Clementine’s intimidation, really eased our minds of my small dog being around a bigger dog and it showed how compassionate these two fun dog loving people are towards their guest dogs and owners. Prior to Clem's stay, they asked all the right questions about how to care for her and what they could do to help with any anxiety, when to feed her how much, etc., We felt very comfortable with them and liked both of them very much! We will definitely be calling again to have them watch our little fur baby!”
“Great sitter! My dog stayed for 3 nights and was really well cared for the entire time. She has a safe fenced yard, and I loved knowing he had space to relax and play outside. He seemed comfortable and happy the whole stay, and communication was easy throughout. Would definitely book again! Thank you Deb!”
“Jo-Ellen is an outstanding Rover host!! She really went above and beyond to make sure Zoom was comfortable given this was only his second rover stay. I'm grateful for the A+ communication and attention given to Zoom. Her place is in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic and lots of grassy lawns. Definitely will be leaving Zoom with Jo-Ellen during future travels!”
“Mayra and her husband was so warm welcoming! They let me know where Milo would be playing and hanging out. Which left me at easy leaving my baby boy. As well Mayra loves playing little games with the doggies she sent me a video of my Milo playing the game and doing so well! She shared pictures as well and always communicated with me when i would ask about Milo. Milo came back so happy ❤️ I would definitely book again with Mayra! Thank you so much!”
“This was perfect for what I needed. We had no local friends or family that could take our cat. We were going to be away but he couldn't be at the house because we were having work done on it while we were gone. They took our cat into their home. I was surprised to see they had other cats when I arrived. But one question on the survey was if your pet does well with other cats, which he does, but cats tend to not be friendly with new cats initially so I was a bit worried they'd fight, but they had a separate area, a sun room that they allowed Sox to adjust in and during the week they had sent pictures of him being inside the home on the couch so obviously it was fine. I actually never met or dealt with Sarah only her Mom. Which I felt was odd. I was expecting the person pictured, the person I paid. Her Mom was lovely and clearly there were no issues and my cat was returned safely to me, I just felt it was odd the Sarah was sleeping or "resting because she works a lot" both times I was there. I didn't take any stars off my review for that, because again the service accomplished what I needed which was my cat to be cared for outside of my home.”

“Mollie provided a home away from home for my dog. I received lots of photos and communication during his stay and they were sad to see him leave at the end. I’ll definitely be requesting a stay with her again!”
“We were anxious to have our dog in an environment with another dog that she has not met, since she can be a little unpredictable. Tristan set up a meet and greet and was confident that our dog would adjust. We are thankful to him for watching her for the weekend when we were in a bind and needed a sitter. We would definitely book again with Tristan if he’d take her!”
“Jennifer went above and beyond caring for my dog! She even took the time to read through his full profile to understand his needs and quirks, which meant a lot. I got updates, and my pup came home happy and relaxed. So grateful for the extra care and attention. Highly recommend!”
“Carmen went above and beyond to take care of my special needs girl. She made sure her medication was given on time, she took her to the vet when she started having some issues and loved on her to make sure she was comfortable. She communicated with me multiple times a day and sent lots of pictures. Carmen was a blessing and allowed me to enjoy our vacation without worry.”

“Samantha was great! Our dog Toast had a great time with her and her family for along weekend over the holidays. This was his first time staying in someone else's home, and Samantha made sure he fit right in and enjoyed his time with her. Samantha was also very responsive and answered any/all questions I had.

“We are so thankful for Andrew’s thorough and conscientious service. His availability on extremely short notice rescued us from a huge bind. Our two cats are friendly and affectionate to us but always afraid to interact with visitors or anyone they don’t know. Andrew was a notable exception to this tendency. His very relaxed and kind demeanor put our cats at ease from their first meeting. We appreciated the many photos that Andrew shared which clearly confirmed that our cats enjoyed his visits and were completely relaxed around him. Andrew followed all of our instructions precisely and provided us with helpful feedback throughout his time of service. Our time away was truly enhanced knowing that our cats were in such good hands with Andrew. We will definitely use Andrew in the future and strongly recommend him for your next pet sitting needs.”
“Cera was awesome! So friendly, great communication, and flexible! She left great notes and always shared lots of pictures! This was our first time using Rover and she made the process super simple and comfortable. We would definitely book with her again and recommend her to others!”

“My entire experience with Liceth has been amazing. She made the entire interaction seamless and as smooth as possible in both occasions I used her dog sitting service. I have to be at work 5:45AM and she was able to accommodate my extremely early drop off time. She also gave me updates through out the day to give me the peace of mind that my dog was in good care. I highly recommend her!”
“Rosie has been going to Mollie since she was a puppy. She has become best friends with her dog Rari and they love each other and get overjoyed when they see each other . I can tell she loves Mollie and her family so much by the amount of joy she exudes just by the mention of their name. I definitely recommend her to anyone he needs a dog sitter .”

My background as a veterinary technician allows me to confidently handle medication administration, monitor health and behavior changes, and respond calmly in urgent situations. My zoo keeping experiencing also aids in my ability to understand how important enrichment and cleanliness are to your pet's overall happiness. Utilizing knowledge gained from prior puppy and adolescent dog training courses, also helps me with walking, hiking, and in house behaviors. Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, hikes, play, and individualized attention to ensure each pet’s needs are met. With a flexible work schedule, I am able to provide in-home care 3 days a week uninterrupted and with a local home location, am able to check in on days in the office as well. Whether it’s daily check-ins, walks, or extended stays, I make sure every pet receives reliable, compassionate care as part of my regular routine—not as an afterthought. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or in my client’s home, to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, walks or exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I closely monitor behavior, appetite, and overall health, and I keep pet parents updated with photos and messages. My home is equipped with 2 outdoor security cameras as well as a fully fenced in yard. In a client’s home, I respect the space while ensuring pets receive consistent care, enrichment, and companionship. In my home, pets are given a calm, safe environment with supervision, structured routines, and positive reinforcement. With my veterinary technician experience and animal care and dog training certifications, I’m able to administer medications, support training, care for puppies, and provide gentle, attentive care for senior pets. My goal is always to keep pets happy, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away.
About: Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. My love for pets is what sparked me to enter as the wonderful world of pet sitting. I love making new pet buddies, and want to ensure they are as happy as can be. I couldn't imagine my life without them. They bring so much joy and happiness as I cherish the attention and love every dog big or small, requires thank you and I look forward to creating a friendship with you and bonding with your pet. I’m great for holidays always available

“This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone. Cassandra made the process super easy. She sent many videos and pictures of my girl. I will use her again in the future.”
“Nicole was an excellent pet sitter. She sent me pictures and daily updates about Cinnamon, and she took her out on walks and took good care of her. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to others.”
“We were desperate last minute for someone to watch our dog on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We reached out to Lydianis and her husband Alex on Rover. They were very quick to respond and continued with good communication throughout the entire time they had my dog. They took the time, at a very busy time of year, to meet us on the Sunday before at a local park and introduced their beautiful Lab Chase to us. Seeing how well they handled Chase and how understanding they were of Clementine’s intimidation, really eased our minds of my small dog being around a bigger dog and it showed how compassionate these two fun dog loving people are towards their guest dogs and owners. Prior to Clem's stay, they asked all the right questions about how to care for her and what they could do to help with any anxiety, when to feed her how much, etc., We felt very comfortable with them and liked both of them very much! We will definitely be calling again to have them watch our little fur baby!”
“Jo-Ellen is an outstanding Rover host!! She really went above and beyond to make sure Zoom was comfortable given this was only his second rover stay. I'm grateful for the A+ communication and attention given to Zoom. Her place is in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic and lots of grassy lawns. Definitely will be leaving Zoom with Jo-Ellen during future travels!”
About: I give personal, one-on-one care. I am not overbooked or rushing between multiple pets. When your dog is with me, they become my priority. I follow your routines carefully, keeping you updated with photos and notes, and create a comfortable environment where they can relax. I’m dependable and genuinely invested in making your dog feel safe and well cared for every single time. I am with my kids most days, so dog sitting fits into our regular home routine. The dogs are part of the household during their stay- they get walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day while kids are at school or busy doing their own activities. I’m always home and focused on making sure every dog feels safe and well cared for. When I’m not with kids I’m am very open to bringing my services to other homes. I care for dogs in my home, where they become part of my daily routine. They get regular walks, playtime, and quiet rest in a comfortable space. I stick closely to their normal schedule so they feel at ease in a new place. You’ll get updates with photos so you never have to wonder how they are doing.
“We were anxious to have our dog in an environment with another dog that she has not met, since she can be a little unpredictable. Tristan set up a meet and greet and was confident that our dog would adjust. We are thankful to him for watching her for the weekend when we were in a bind and needed a sitter. We would definitely book again with Tristan if he’d take her!”
“Jennifer went above and beyond caring for my dog! She even took the time to read through his full profile to understand his needs and quirks, which meant a lot. I got updates, and my pup came home happy and relaxed. So grateful for the extra care and attention. Highly recommend!”
“Amber and her family were great. Our little guy was happy and made himself right at home. We enjoyed the consistent pictures, and appreciated Amber's clear and responsive communication. Will definitely use her again!”
“Samantha was great! Our dog Toast had a great time with her and her family for along weekend over the holidays. This was his first time staying in someone else's home, and Samantha made sure he fit right in and enjoyed his time with her. Samantha was also very responsive and answered any/all questions I had. Would definitely recommend!”

“Liceth is pretty special. she cares for our dog and most importantly she excerzies all the animals which we really need. we often book her just for nila to visit not because we need care”
“She was amazing! We had a last minute need for a dog sitter and she was super nice and understanding! She sent us updates and pictures of our puppers! 10/10 would recommend and would use her services again!”
“We had a great experience with Andrew and Chelsea! They took fantastic care of my dog and provided updates on him throughout my time away. He was a happy pup when I picked him up! I highly recommend!”
“We never leave our dog with anyone but family. Since all our family needed to be at our wedding we needed someone to watch Carl. Jim’s property is perfect for animals. Jim treated him like family. He was even allowed on the couch! Jim sent us pictures to show how Carl was relaxing. We recommend using Jim.”
“Dolly must have had a wonderful time with Beth and the family. I'm not even so sure she's glad to be home. Lol. We will definitely reach out to Beth next time we need Dolly to go in vacation.”
“Jean and her husband took amazing care of our dog Bronco while we were on vacation for a week. Bronco was well taken care of and Jean sent many updates and pictures throughout the week that gave us peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend Jean to any family or friends needing a pet sitter. We already have a second booking!”
“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“Lisa continues to be a great help to our family. Lucy knows her well now and always comes home in a great mood and a bit tuckered out. I miss Lucy so much while we are away but with the updates throughout her stay, I can see she's having just as much fun, if not more, on her vacation too.”
“Our pups loved Dawn and her beautiful home. She sent the cutest pictures and it felt like she treated Rosie and Newton as if they were her own. Highly recommend. Would use again in the future. Thank you!”
