“Wow! I cannot express how amazing Lorena and her family are. This was our first time leaving our two Shih Tzus overnight and we received regular text messages with pictures and updates, always very personable. Prior to their stay, we visited Lorena upon her request, to make sure the stay would be a good fit. This gave me peace of mind, knowing she has a screening process. I learned about Lorena from two of my neighbors who shared really positive feedback, so I went into this first stay confident. When picking up our Tzu's they were happy, healthy and obviously well loved. Many thanks to Lorena and her family for being a second family to our babies while we were away <3”
“Rosco had an amazing Thanksgiving weekend stay with Kathryn and her family :) They took such great care of him, like he was one of their own. She communicated and sent pictures daily. Rosco always looked so comfy and cozy, he sure enjoyed his holiday vacation!”
“Amber is both friendly and professional. I really appreciated the steady stream of photos and updates from her while I was out of town. Would definitely considered her in the future.”
“Since our first use of Rover, this has been the best visit/offering of service thus far! Sonja &Phil maintained communication and provided photos throughout her entire stay, provided proper feeding (I always give a little extra and sitters would never have any to return), and she came back well and in good health (not the case on 2 occasions with another sitter). I appreciated that Roxy was still able to get outdoors in a enclosed area and I'm sure she did as well because she loves being outdoors. Highly recommend and I'll definitely be looking to use their services again!”
“Connie sent at least 5 pictures a day of my angel, and every single one i can tell my baby was having a great time! She came home exhausted, in the best way possible. I don’t leave my dog with anyone, ever. Connie made me feel safe leaving her, and i was thoroughly able to enjoy my trip.”
“Stephen did an excellent job caring for Abby. Stephen and his family treated Abby with the utmost care and loving kindness. Stephen provided reqular updates, pictures , and videos , so we could be sure that our fur baby Abby was in the best of hands. Stephen has so much experience and only keeps one pet at a time which really made us feel comfortable with him . He followed our instructions on feeding and care for Abby to the letter . We would definelty recommend Stephen and will use him again for Abby!”
“We had a great experience with Yeny and Ray! They were wonderful with our Furbaby, Kyon. We received lots of sweet and funny photo updates that perfectly captured his personality. It’s clear he was well loved and cared for.. he misses them already! We’re looking forward to booking with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Warren and Ashlee were wonderful boarders for Milo. I felt they took great care of my little boy while I was away from him for the first time. They provided me with pictures and information about how he was doing. Thank you so much.”
“Christie was great - kept us informed, sent us videos and took plenty of time to get to know our doodle puppy and gave her plenty of exercise and love. Also, when a massive rainstorm hit just before pickup, she gave us some extra time to get which was greatly appreciated. She is caring and offered suggestions about diet and treats and worked with her on her first nite getting to sleep in a strange place. Her large doodle ended up being a great play buddy outside. We will use her again for sure.”
“Great communication leading up to our stay. Jeleesa was amazing with my pup! My dog came home just as happy as when I left her- I highly recommend to anyone needed a “home away from home” for their animal!”
“Rebecca was fantastic. She was a great communicator throughout the entire stay and took wonderful care of Lucy and Ethel. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter”
“Lily, our dog seamed very happy there. The moment we arrived, Lily stated to play with the other dogs, and you can tell the Svetlana was a good and kind person the loved dog. We plan to use here again.”
“I felt so at ease for my sweet pup under Heather’s care. She sent me pictures and updates everyday on my two week trip, and Lark settled in rather well and LOVED her dogs and cats and felt a part of the pack! We will definitely be using her again in the future 😊”
“Meredith is an angel with our sweet pup! She kept him for the duration of our cruise, and updated us with several pictures and a video. She was able to cater to our specific feeding needs, as well as administering medication. We are so lucky to have a puppysitter that treats him with such love and care.”
“Mozey loved Tahliyah! She is great with dogs and very communicative. She sent photo and video updates every few hours, which we appreciated. We will definitely be working with her again in the future!”

“Kyleigh C. Has a caring kind personality. She's was very loving and attentive to my furbaby cat. She showed up on time each day. Was ver Responsible. She played with him, she fed him, gave him treats, and she even locked up the house after her shift was done. I would recommend her and I will use her again for my furbaby sitting services.”
“Autumn is amazing! We have used her previously to watch our two cats and will continue to use her. She goes above and beyond. She makes sure to spend time with the cats and is patient with my cat requiring medication. This time around she was available to do drop in visits with a very short notice. I am very thankful we found Autumn and will continue to use her!”
About: I have many years of pet sitting, up to several pets at a time, including owning many of my own since I was a child. I am patient when meeting new pets, for I understand it may take time to warm up to new people (and other pets!) I’m friendly, and talk to most animals just like they’re humans (lol). I enjoy spending time playing around, going for runs, as well as providing companionship when around pets. We love snuggling in bed over here! I’m not easily intimidated by a shy pet, and will treat them with the same respect and patience as their owners. I have high expectations for my own, so I believe it is only normal and natural to give the same in return for others’ pets so their families are comfortable with who they leave their furry friends with when away. My boy is the friendliest dog ever! He absolutely loves meeting other dogs (and the owners to receive even more affection 🤣). He’s got a lot of energy, which can overwhelm others the first day (he just wants to play!) He is very gentle with small dogs. When meeting others’ on the first day, If they are uncomfortable with his energy level and show they need time to warm up, he immediately backs off and resorts to my side until they are ready. He is very submissive in this sense which is great for no escalation and providing other dogs with the time they need to adjust to a new setting/new friends. I work a full time day job Monday-Friday 8-4, so please be sure prior to requesting services, your pets are able to accept this schedule. I am unfortunately unable to stop in midday as my lunch break does not allow for me to make it very far under 30 minutes. My pets along with the others’ I have boarded have had no issues with a routine working schedule, but every pet has different needs. ❤️ I care for others’ pets like they are my own! It is my duty as a trusted sitter to care for others’ pets in a way they need. I predominantly care for pets in others homes as I have several pets of my own. I do not have any issue with camera systems being in shared spaces to assure families feel safe having someone in their home with their pets.
“Exceptional job. Very punctual and ensure my fur babies were looked after and cared for! Ms Debora went above and beyond by ensuring my three chewy deliveries were taken care of immediately! And I loved the daily narrative and pictures which made my day and cruise that much better! Ms Debora is the best!”
“Hailey is absolutely THE BEST rascal sitter EVER! My two babies just LOVE her! Fleury is usually much slower at warming up to people but he goes right to Hailey like he's known her forever! I love the personal attention and all the pics Hailey sends me. I feel so relieved knowing Sadie and Fleury are not just being fed but getting loved on as well! Thank you Hailey for another great visit!!”
“Jessica did a great job with our three cats. She was very patient while they got to know her, even trying to coax our most skittish cat from his hiding place with his favorite treats. She took lots of pictures each time she dropped in of all three cats. We will definitely be booking her again for our next trip.”
“This is the second time Victoria watched our kitty & we had just as wonderful of an experience. She sends lots of pictures, leaves our place picked up & is super responsive. It’s so nice to be able to travel & not worry. Grateful for her!”

I am very flexible to any accommodations needed for clients homes and would be willing to discuss any specific needs!
“Crystal was wonderful with our dogs! There were some tech issues on my end but she was understanding and patient. It’s nice to have someone to help care for our pets when we are away and trust that they will be fine.”
“April is very easy to get along with and gave excellent care to our cat Miss Pepper. April sent me pictures of our feline at each visit and informed me of package deliveries. Upon my request she checked the water taps drip to ensure the water doesn’t freeze. I highly recommend her.”

“Outstanding!! I couldn’t be happier with the house sitting by Sarah E. Great communication before, during and after the service. Clinton was obviously very happy after seeing pictures. I can’t recommend her more highly. Thank you!”
About: I adopted my “void” in 2021 and he’s been such a joy. I’ve administered medicine, clipped nails, bathed, cleaned litter boxes, and so on for him. All cats are welcomed, from the grumpy to the playful! I can match their energy and adapt to their needs.
About: I have experience caring for cats by feeding them, cleaning their spaces, playing with them, and giving them attention and affection. I understand that every cat has its own personality and needs, and I will make sure they feel safe and comfortable.

About: I have always had a dog for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and I love them. We currently have two dogs. I have a male Golden doodle named Bo and a female Teddy Bear named Annie. I like to walk the dogs for two 30 minute walks a day. I’m a stay at home, homeschooling mom. I have a 7 year old, 10 year old, 13 year old and 16 year old at home. Everyone loves dogs. We have a routine with the dogs and they are part of the family. I don’t have a fenced in yard but I am a firm believer that dogs need to be walked. I walk my dogs for 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the afternoon on a walking path behind my house. I keep jingle bells on my door and my dogs ring them to go outside to potty. I have options to separate dogs if necessary. Dogs are separated at feeding time.

“Svetlana took great care of our 2 dogs on a last minute notice for the day. She is so kind, and good with the dogs.

“Tahliyah is an excellent dog sitter! She watched my 6 month old golden doodle for the whole day and provided updates, pics, and videos. Her puppy, Rocket, is very playful and the got along very well. Thankfully, my pup was wiped out when I picked him up and he chilled the rest of the night. I’d recommend Tahliyah and will be utilizing her services again.”

About: I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience with animals of all kinds—from cats and dogs to birds, bunnies, and even livestock. I grew up working alongside an equine veterinarian and have spent years collaborating closely with small animal vets, giving me a strong foundation in animal health and behavior. Whether your pet needs meds, special care, or just a little extra love, I specialize in supporting animals with medical needs and take pride in being calm, compassionate, and highly attentive. I’m not just a sitter—I’m a lifelong animal caregiver who treats every pet like family. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and care they need throughout the day. Whether it's midday walks, medication schedules, or just extra snuggles, I’m consistently present and available to keep your pets happy and stress-free. My routine is built around their needs—because their comfort and well-being come first. 🐾 In my home, pets enjoy a safe, secure environment with a fully fenced yard and plenty of supervised playtime. My own friendly dogs are always happy to welcome new furry friends, but if your pet prefers one-on-one attention, I can provide a quiet, relaxed space just for them. I tailor the experience to match each pet’s personality and comfort level—whether they love to socialize or just want a calm companion.
“Cooper had the BEST day with Praveen and his wife and his two dogs. It was his first time away from Us as he is a puppy. He was spoiled, and taken well care of. Highly recommend this sitter!”
“Tio was happy and ready for a nap after spending a day with Toni, Duke and Anna and I could not have been happier. This was my first time leaving Tio with a sitter so needless to say I was very anxious about how he would do. Toni sent lots of updates including pictures and even a video of my boy having a great time while I was away. I highly recommend Toni if you have a need for a great caregiver for your four legged babies.”

“Since our first use of Rover, this has been the best visit/offering of service thus far! Sonja &Phil maintained communication and provided photos throughout her entire stay, provided proper feeding (I always give a little extra and sitters would never have any to return), and she came back well and in good health (not the case on 2 occasions with another sitter). I appreciated that Roxy was still able to get outdoors in a enclosed area and I'm sure she did as well because she loves being outdoors. Highly recommend and I'll definitely be looking to use their services again!”
“Connie sent at least 5 pictures a day of my angel, and every single one i can tell my baby was having a great time! She came home exhausted, in the best way possible. I don’t leave my dog with anyone, ever. Connie made me feel safe leaving her, and i was thoroughly able to enjoy my trip.”
“Charlotte is a phenomenal sitter and I can’t recommend her enough! You can tell she really understands dogs, and our boy Bruno feels so comfortable with Charlotte’s “pack”. She is a great communicator and caretaker!”

We would definelty recommend Stephen and will use him again for Abby!”
“We had a great experience with Yeny and Ray! They were wonderful with our Furbaby, Kyon. We received lots of sweet and funny photo updates that perfectly captured his personality. It’s clear he was well loved and cared for.. he misses them already! We’re looking forward to booking with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Warren and Ashlee were wonderful boarders for Milo. I felt they took great care of my little boy while I was away from him for the first time. They provided me with pictures and information about how he was doing. Thank you so much.”
“Christie was great - kept us informed, sent us videos and took plenty of time to get to know our doodle puppy and gave her plenty of exercise and love. Also, when a massive rainstorm hit just before pickup, she gave us some extra time to get which was greatly appreciated. She is caring and offered suggestions about diet and treats and worked with her on her first nite getting to sleep in a strange place. Her large doodle ended up being a great play buddy outside. We will use her again for sure.”
“I was worried about leaving my little anxious pup but after meeting Denise all my fears went away! I could tell she was knowledgeable and knew what to do and was able to enjoy my trip!! So glad I booked with Denise :)”

“Dana was amazing with our dogs! They were only there for half a day while we went to a wedding, but she sent plenty of updates during this time which I appreciated. She has a really nice backyard, and I could tell my dogs really enjoyed themselves. Dana was also super flexible with pickup and drop-off. I would book with her again if I were ever in the area.”
“Ligia, thank you so much for taking such great care of Cranberry. This was her first time away from home. You were so accommodating to her needs. Thank you for treating her like a princess.”
