“Fantastic sitter! Took great care of the pups, kept us updated with pictures (and even took some fun ones for Christmas!) and is quick to respond to messages. Will definitely plan to take the doggos back next time we need a sitter!”
“Teresa was amazing! I was nervous about leaving Bella now that she is a very senior dog, but she was in the absolute best care with Teresa! Teresa sent so many pictures and video updates that I always knew what Bella was up to! Bella was so content and happy when I picked her up which speaks very highly about the relaxed and comfortable space she was in during her visit. Would absolutely recommend Teresa to any other pet parents who need care for their senior dogs.”

“Clyde and Nancy were awesome and our Kona seemed to love being in their home! They allowed her on their furniture and sent several pictures of Kona cuddled up with Clyde or Nancy! Kona seemed to think Clyde’s lap and recliner were as comfortable as my husband’s!!! We will definitely have them keep Kona again and our other fur baby Waffle when she’s no longer under 1 year old!”
“Aedan is the absolute best dog sitter! Daily pictures and updates along with easy communication. My dog loved staying with him and from the pictures felt right at home. Thanks for everything!”
“Sherry and her husband were absolutely amazing and took such great care of my little terrier. Whiskey is shy and takes a little to warm up to new places, and they were so sweet and loving to her that she felt right at home. They treat all dogs with love and compassion, are very reliable and communicative, and gave me updates throughout her stay. Will definitely book again.”
“Jennifer took great care of my Pom and was very flexible and eased me from afar with updates and pictures. Her daughters are also adorable and my pup seemed to love them!”
“Carla took amazing care of my Rottweiler puppy, Ceasar, for three days. She treated him like her own, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made sure he was comfortable, safe, and happy the entire time. I could see how much love and attention she gave him. I’m truly grateful for her professionalism and kindness. I will definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring.”
“Min did an amazing job taking pictures, videos and providing updates on Jenny. Jenny was more calm and well-adjusted when I arrived to pick her up. Her ears were also standing up versus lying down in all the pictures and videos which tells me she’s having a good time. She also had lots of furry friends to play with. Thank you Min!!”
“Leslie was great! She took such good care of Zoey and was so quick to be able to adjust to her needs. She made sure that Zoey was cared for well while we were gone and provided frequent updates. Will def rebook!”

This was my first time to use a cat sitter and I loved her¹ I absolutely plan on using her again to care of my cats the next time I go on a trip!?”
“This was my first time working with Sherry for drop-in visits. I found her last minute, and I'm so happy to responded quickly to my request that she was available. Sherry is a great communicator, and was super sweet with my babies. If you are looking for someone you can trust who is kind, Sherry is your gal!”
“Upon booking, Nathan was quick to communicate and respond to any additional questions I had regarding the request. He made me feel at ease knowing that my cat would be taken care of and offered to work with me to let my cat have the best experience possible. He also checked in a couple days prior to the scheduled time to make sure everything was still on. During my time away, he sent updated pictures of my cat of his own volition, which I deeply appreciated. I am also thankful for the extra set of eyes watching over my cat - thank you, Priscilla! I highly recommend him and will be booking with him again in the future!”
About: Hi there, I’m Emma! I’m a stay at home mom, wife, and college student. I love doing what I do and happy to help :) I know how difficult it can be to leave a family member in someone else’s care. I treat every pet with the same integrity, patience, kindness, and care I’d want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re safe, happy, and in good hands. 🏠 Someone is home throughout most of the day in a family environment and plenty of loving attention 🐾 Frequent potty breaks and exercise ⛓️ Off leash play only in safe enclosed areas 🌊 Fresh water available at all times 📸 Daily photo and message updates ⌛️ Personalized care and routine ❗️ Safe and separate feeding 🤫 Quiet spaces for rest 🩵 Puppies, adults, and senior dogs welcome 🚫 No unnecessary crating 🏡💚 Safety & Environment I believe a safe environment starts with prevention, which is why I’m always mindful of each pet’s unique needs, routines, and comfort level.
“We had a great experience with Cristina- we were in town for a quick trip to Acadia and made a last minute request for Cristina to board our cat. She was communicative, flexible and receptive to our cat's needs. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”

“Edith is a true "dog whisperer"! She came over for a meet and greet with our 7 month old miniature Schnauzer (Caesar) three times, until he got used to her. Which was not easy with Caesar! And now he loves her. Edith is committed, professional, and respectful of our needs. We highly recommend Edith!”
About: As long as I can remember, I've always had at least one cat. I love them and know how to take care of their nails and fur.

“Paige was wonderful and made me feel at ease with hourly updates and photos while my dog Roxy was in her care. Roxy was all smiles and that totally warms my heart! I’m so happy to have found Paige. An even bigger perk is she is so close to me. I plan to rebook Paige’s services very very soon. Thank you, Paige!”
“I have had an amazing experience! I have two very different dogs—a tiny 7-pound dog and a very energetic 50-pound puppy—and they did an incredible job caring for both of them. They were patient, attentive, and made sure each dog got the care and attention they needed. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Communication was excellent, and it was clear they genuinely cared about my dogs. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
About: Hi, I'm Leslie! This is my alternative option since my husband refused to allow me and adopt another fur baby 😅. I've had dogs my entire life. From the time I was a toddler, dogs have been a constant and beloved presence in my world. Growing up, my family always had at least one furry friend, and caring for them became second nature to me. I’ve owned dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and responsibility. My daily routine includes long, enjoyable walks, playful training sessions, and careful grooming to keep my dogs healthy and happy. I understand the importance of personalized care and make sure to tailor my approach to meet each dog's unique needs and personality. My home is filled with love and laughter, with plenty of toys, cozy spots for naps, and, of course, lots of belly rubs. My lifelong experience with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their behavior and needs, ensuring they always feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I genuinely love dogs and find immense joy in their companionship. If you’re looking for a reliable, passionate, and experienced dog sitter, I’d be thrilled to take care of your furry friend as if they were my own. MEET AND GREET REQUIRED Dogs MUST be vaccinated. I’m an elementary teacher who is off in the summer and looking to keep myself occupied during this long break at home. I’m home all day basically unless I run to the store. I live in a house with a big back yard where your fur babies can run around and enjoy nature! We will always have someone out there as well to make sure everything is okay.
“Amazing person and very friendly. She cares for your puppy like her own. Lets you know your baby is okay through pictures and messages throughout your babies stay. Overall just awesome.”
“Using a new dog sitter always makes me a bit nervous, I really appreciate being welcomed in to chat before dropping my dog off, Anna made the whole process more comfortable. I picked up a super happy and totally worn-out dog, which is always the best sign. She got tons of playtime with other dogs and came home without a scratch. I got lots of pictures and would absolutely recommend her! I'll definitely be booking again the next time I'm visiting from out of state.”
About: As a devoted dog owner for 12 years, I deeply understand the love, companionship, and joy our furry friends bring into our lives. After the passing of my beloved dog “Trouble” on August 6, 2023, I’ve found fulfillment in caring for other pets. I would be honored to walk, play with, and shower your pups with affection, ensuring they feel loved and cared for in your absence. I work from home full time and am a devoted mother to five children, all over the age of 8, who share my deep love for dogs. After losing our beloved family dog of 12 years in August 2023, we’ve felt a big void in our lives. We’re now in the process of adopting a new fur baby to bring that warmth back into our home. Caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine, and I truly look forward to giving your precious pets the love, attention, and companionship they deserve. I have a spacious, fully fenced backyard perfect for dogs to play safely. I will be the only person caring for pets during all bookings — no one else will assist with pet care. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.
“Lynnsee was great! She was super flexible with the hours I was able to drop off and pick up. She sent pictures throughout the day which was very nice and Benny was super happy when I came to pick him up. Will definitely reach out to her again.”
“Carla was incredibly sweet and a great communicator. She sent us many pictures of our puppy playing with her dog Khloe and getting love! Will definitely book with her again 🤩”
“I am so grateful for Rita. I have a reactive Pitt who was rescued from severe neglect at about 1 year old. I am very cautious about who I leave him with and I have to say I trust Rita implicitly with my dogs. Firstly they love her, she spends actual time with them and I know she can handle my Bossko no problem. Rita has an understanding of dogs and their behavior/needs that has been literally life saving for my dog. That probably sounds dramatic but we were having some big behavioral issues surrounding a move and I was starting to worry about safety but also refused to give up on my dog. Rita offered some insight as to what he might be needing from me and offered some ideas on a routine and safety measures I could implement to help him (things that are actually sustainable in my busy life as a single mom) and it has been a game changer! I can see the difference in his demeanor, in his recovery from stressful events, and he's so much more happy and fulfilled. My whole house is so much more calm and settled and I get to give him a happier life. Rita's understanding and compassionate care for dogs is unmatched, and I'm a better dog mom as a result.”

About: We love dogs more than we love humans hehe So much that we are quite literally referred to by our friends and family as the ones that choose to spend their weekends with their dogs than socialize with society...I mean...why wouldn't you?? We've been taking care of dogs since we were 10 years old and are very comfortable with any age range of pups! We currently have two dogchildren that we adopted from the shelters--Shadow, our 4 year old German Shepherd with a giant body and and even more giant heart, and Casper, our goofy little maltese mix that will never leave you not smiling. They are both excellent with other dogs as we've watched several dogs for our friends and family over the years. We also have experience with our family dogs that we've helped raise since they were puppies! SO ANYWAYS...HUGE dog people, so let us know if you have any questions and need us to take care of your sweet baby bears! One of us works from home full time and one works from home hybrid. We're typically home most of the days and if needed, can stay home for your sweet pups that need the extra love! Spoiling all and every pups in our care is our favorite thing to do.

“Michael has taught my dogs so much in such a short amount of time. He’s an amazing dog walker, and my dogs absolutely love him. One of my dogs is usually scared of almost everyone, but he warmed up to Michael so quickly, which says a lot. You can tell he genuinely cares, is patient, and really understands dogs and their different personalities. I truly feel comfortable and at ease knowing my dogs are with him. Highly recommend!”
“Macaya was above and beyond with our dog, when visiting him and making him comfortable while we were on vacation. It was such a peace of mind to have her and not having to worry about anything. Would definitely ask her for help again.”
“I never use this platform, but today I had to work 10+ hours and I didn’t have the time to take Lily on her regular afternoon walk. I searched through Rover and when I saw the reviews, I had no doubt Cristina was the perfect fit for Lily. She was on time, and she gave me feedback on how the walk went. Not only that, she gave Lily a treat for me when she brought her home. I am so grateful that she was willing to fit us in on short notice, and I would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a responsible dog walker/sitter. Cristina made this entire experience so seamless, and I know I’ll be reaching out again for her help. Lily enjoyed her walk!”
“An amazing dog sitter! They were reliable, caring, and treated our dog like their own. I loved getting updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved them. I highly recommend!”

“Coco is hard to handle when out on walks. She weighs approximately 100 lb and his dog aggressive, so we always have to be careful. Maddy did a great job of taking care of our baby and controled Coco well.”
“Elle did an amazing job checking in on my dogs Bruno and Boo and taking them for a walk while I was out of town for work. She took great care of them and I would book her again to take care of them any time!”
About: I have three dogs, from large to small, young to old. Some pets need to release energy and miss us when we're not there, causing mischief. You may not always have time to walk your dog after work. I help them release some energy and let them enjoy using their noses while enjoying the fresh air. Taking pets for walks also releases anxiety and boredom and provides mental stimulation. I work full-time as a pet walker, drop-in, and feeding Dog Mom. I will accommodate for early (after 5:00 AM) or late (before 9:00 PM) outings. If your pet needs feeding and fresh water, just let me know. I do not care for pets in my home as my 3 dogs only put up with each other, and any unknown pets don't always get along with mine.
“Will definitely be booking Jenae again! She accepted our booking on a short notice and had great communication the whole time. We were a bit skeptical of the service being our first time using it, but Jenae has changed our minds! She has earned our service and trust for sure!”
About: *If you would like me to do multiple 30 minute vists or walks, please book drops ins/walks. If you book house sitting please be aware it’s only one visit per day and I do not stay over night at a clients home* Hello, my name is Courtney and I’m your pets new best friend! I’ve always been told I have a “way” with animals and it has helped me create an understanding of them, their behavior and psychology. I was fortunate enough to be raised in a household with multiple dogs, cats and even exotics. The care and well being of animals is something I’ve been passionate about my entire life. In the future I’d like to go into the animal care or behavioral field so I’m trying to get as much experience in with as many different animals as possible! Special needs/seniors/etc are not a problem for me. I can guarantee that I will treat your dogs (or cats) with the same love and respect I show my own pack.

I introduce myself to your pet gradually, with a calm and soothing approach to build trust. I’ll engage with them at their own pace to ensure they feel safe and not overwhelmed.

About: I am a very genuine and caring person . I love all type of animals and i am a mom to two fur babies myself. Your pet will be cared for in a safe environment. I currently work from home so your pet will be looked after full time.

“Poppie was incredibly easy to work with! I loved the videos that she provided every day and felt that my dog seemed very happy in her care. Seamless drop off and pick up. Will book with Poppie again!”

“Biscuit loved her time with Denise! Denise sent updates and pictures throughout the week. Biscuit looked so happy and well taken care of when we picked her up. Would definitely recommend and use Denise again!”
“Eric was absolutely fantastic with our dogs! It was clear from the start that he truly knows and understands how to care for dogs. He took the time to let us see how his pups interacted with ours, which made us feel extremely comfortable and confident leaving them in his care. He was also incredibly flexible with both drop off and pick up, which made the entire experience so easy and stress free. Our dogs were well cared for, and we could tell they were happy and comfortable during their stay. We cannot wait to bring our dogs back to Eric again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and knowledgeable dog sitter!”
“Kara took wonderful care of my dog, Hershey, while we were away. She is kind, caring, and has a genuine heart for dogs, which gave me peace of mind from the very beginning. She was also very responsive and communicative throughout Hershey’s stay. She kept me updated and made sure I always knew how he was doing. It’s clear that she truly loves what she does, and that made all the difference. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kara again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog boarder.”

“Great experience with Abby (look forward to meeting Mike next time :) Their quick communication was really appreciated and they were very accommodating for scheduling a trial stay. Trixie obviously had a fantastic time playing with your pack. We've never seen her so tired, which is awesome! We're super happy to have found you two to take care of our pups. Ned and Trixie are looking forward to their upcoming long stay with you!”
