“Araceli is so kind and amazing! Our dog came home tuckered out and I know she had the best time. She also was sure to send us multiple updates during her stay and she’s super responsive. I completely felt at ease leaving our dog in her care and will be a repeat customer going forward. Thank you, Araceli! :)”
“Our cat and dog were left in good hands with Leah and Chris. We got daily feedback and pictures. We could tell our dog got the exercise he needed and daily activities. In the past when we picked up our cat at sitters he comes to us ready to come home, but this time he just laid there looking at us in the other room, ignoring us when we called him to come. You can tell our animals were well taken care of and were happy.”
“Erik and Emily were great. My dog Schultz had a great time with their dogs he was well cared for they have a great backyard with lots of room to run and play. He didn’t have any problems adapting and was very happy. Highly recommend!”
“We can't say enough great things about Jared! He watched our girl Posie and we felt so relieved to leave her with such a capable sitter who attended to her needs so well and communicated clearly and quickly with us! He was super flexible with pick up and drop off times to accommodate our traveling schedule. Will certainly be booking again!”
“Colleen took really great care of our medium poodle. She sent multiple pictures everyday, and it looked like my skittish poodle got along well with her chill Jackson. Wonderful care and service. Highly recommend Colleen!”
“To start, Danielle had my dog for a daycare, and, everything went great. I received photos showing him walking with others and I know him well enough to know he was enjoying his time. I felt comfortable to go ahead and schedule two overnights with Danielle for him during my next work trip. Things I love about Danielle are that she really pays attention to what you say, the details. She is straightforward and not afraid to express any concerns (such as safety of certain types of collars etc.) Her communication has been excellent. She walks every day with multiple dogs and the pack is such an enjoyable place for my dog. I'm not inundated with photos, but, receive just enough to know he's doing well! We will be boarding at Danielle's as long as she'll have us 💜”
“We have worked w/ Rover a number of times and this is the best provider by far. Conscientious, warm, caring, and consistent environment & family. Our dog was happy and healthy on our return. Thank you K.C!!”
“Genevieve cared for our sweet girl as if she was her own! We could tell our dog felt comfortable and loved the entire time we were gone, evidenced by her behavior when we returned (if she was uncomfortable she would have been way more anxious when we picked her up) and by all of the wonderful pics and videos Genevieve sent while we were away! We will DEFINITELY be using Genevieve’s services again and would recommend her to any family or friends in need.”
“Excellent in every way. Caitlin has a very friendly personality that is excited about meeting and spending time with dogs. Her home is well equipped and comfortable to provide a home away from home for your dog. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone, just don't take away my next reservation!”
“Steve and his dogs were great with my Peanut. She was well cared for and I greatly appreciated the photos and updates Steve provided. This was a WONDERFUL experience and I highly recommend Steve!”
“Karilla and her boyfriend James were awesome. They communicated well and I got lots of pictures. My dog seemed super comfortable. I would definitely use them again!”
“Ann has been my saving grace! I am a helicopter dog mom and have a lot of trust issues when it comes to my girl Birdie…. and luckily, Ann acknowledged my anxieties and assured such great care! She is a great communicator, loves my girl as if she was her own, and is always available! I have to mention that we did have a cancellation last minute but it was because she did not want Birdie to potentially get sick. I think that’s an important thing to consider with the review that Rover posted. No issues with Ann whatsoever, and i will continue to feel at ease when dropping Birdie off!”
“The people in this home made Mabel feel welcomed and loved. How do I know? All of the pictures and updates Christine sent me! I was able to work out of town without worrying about my girl, Mabes. My work can be stressful, and not having to worry about Mabel means so much to me. I will definitely want Mabel to go back to Christine's home!”
“We had such a great experience with Brandi watching our lab. She made Nellie(our lab) feel right at home and with great care. She sent pictures every day and let us know how she was doing, I can’t recommend her enough. Definitely will be going back to her next time!”
“Thanks for providing such great care for Chewie! I loved the photo updates. We were really able to enjoy our time away, knowing he was in good hands. Such loving and competent care! We will be back.”
“David was excellent! Lumi had a great time playing with the other pups and I think benefited from David working from home, which is what she is used to. Thank you so much, will be booking again!”

“TLDR I booked with Linnea for 14 days (one hour-long drop-in per day). It was the best sitting experience my cat Bootes, whom the shelter described as a cat who demonstrates "fearful behavior," has had so far. I would definitely book Linnea again and I recommend her, especially if you also have a cat who gets shy/anxious. More detail: This was my first time using Rover/paying for a professional sitter, so I was nervous about how it would go. I have had Bootes for four years and have had three other sitters (friends/neighbors) during that time period; two sitters Bootes boarded with were experienced cat owners, but they were more used to handling extroverted cats. The third sitter was able to visit Bootes at home, and despite being able to stay in her home territory, Bootes did not want to come out from under her go-to hiding spot (under my bed) at all during drop-ins (2-3x a day for 7 days). So I wondered if that would be the case for this time as well. But Linnea had Bootes coming out regularly very early on into the booking! Knowing that Bootes was only getting friendlier and more comfortable with Linnea over time gave me a lot of peace of mind; I did not have to worry so much about whether Bootes was feeling scared or lonely while I was on vacation. My previous sitters been great with ensuring Bootes's physical health and safety, but this is the first time where I knew that Bootes was doing ok mentally/emotionally too, thanks to Linnea's cat whispering. All other aspects of the booking went awesomely as well!”
“It’s a wonderful feeling to know my Coco is in good hands with Julie. Julie communicates very well and goes above and beyond to make sure my little one is taken care of. Thanks for being so awesome, Julie!”
“Sierra is the best! She took such great care of our 3 kitties and sent us photos and videos of playtime every day - our kitties lived her. Everything was very clean when we returned. We are 100% thrilled to have found her!”
About: I have had cats my entire life, from a mean old barn cat who only liked me to a spunky gray kitten who now runs my home. I’ve been scooping and cleaning litter boxes since I was 7 years old and still do it to this day. I have raised 3 kittens through my life, as well as becoming like a second parent to my best friend’s cat! I love cats dearly and know how sensitive of creatures they can be. I treat them with the upmost care and respect.
“Annabelle was so great with our 2 kitties~we have one cat who is very shy and doesn’t come out much, but Annabelle made the extra effort to look for her & let us know she was okay. She was reliable, communicative, and took care of all the things our cats needed! We are looking forward to booking her again in the future :)”
“Marissa is a fantastic pet sitter. My cats adore her and she gives them so much attention on her visits. I am always so excited to see her photo updates. My cats are not overly high-need, but she does a great job making sure their food is full, their water is fresh, and their litter boxed is cleaned. Marissa is very easy to communicate with and someone I absolutely trust with my pets. I have so much peace of mind knowing she will be there to take care of my best buds when I am out of town.”
“Margherita was an amazing outstanding cat sitter for our cat Simba. She had to care for Simba for three weeks and I could not have asked for a better person. She went above and beyond to make sure Simba was kept clean, healthy and happy. She even vacuumed our house of litter tracks. Due to our long time away she had to even take out trash and completely empty the litter container. All of this was taken care of. She also sent many many pictures which we are very thankful of. Thank you Margherita!!!”
“Brooke was very communicative and responsive. Brooke is very easy to work with and trustworthy. She genuinely cares about our pet and provided daily updates and pictures. We will be contacting her for future care.”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing! Communication after every visits, she played & combed both kitties and sent the most adorable pictures. Always on time. A pleasure to have our first experience ever using a service turn out so well! Thank you Jennifer, I will be contacting you for our next get away.”
“Lisa is very thorough and thoughtful. She goes through every detailed instruction and is very reliable. She is both professional and kind. That’s why we keep rebooking her to take care of our kitties. I would recommend her without hesitation.”
“Michaela was flexible, communicative and a good listener, thorough and conscientious. We appreciated knowing that our animals were well cared for while out of town. Highly recommended.”
About: I haven't had as much experience caring for cats outside of my own as I have with dogs. I have had my own cat for 10 years, but as any cat parent knows, each cat has a very unique personality. I look forward to gaining new experience in caring for cats, and I am confident in my ability to do so.
“Jenny is so great with our cats! We were nervous to leave because our senior cat needs to take a pill and other medication daily, but Jenny was great with handling it while we were gone. I know I’ll be using her services again!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember (I’ve been sneaking animals in my home since I was in diapers😌), and being around them truly makes me happiest. I’m incredibly empathetic toward animals (I don’t even kill bugs!), so every pet in my care is treated with gentleness, patience, and genuine love. The dogs in my photos are my beloved old pups (Milo the Golden Retriever and Yoshi the Shih Tzu) Milo was 8wks when I got him and Yoshi was 5wks — I don’t currently have any dogs, but I do have two friendly cats at home. Lucy my tiny little black cat🖤 and Foggy my orange menace 🧡 (both rescues) I have hands-on experience caring for and training my own dogs over the years, from large breeds like Dobermans to small breeds like Shih Tzus. I’ve also had cats my entire life so growing up half my cats were kitties I found, some even needing bottle feeding. I'm comfortable with all things feline — from playful kittens to independent seniors. Beyond dogs and cats, I’ve cared for chickens, birds, and many other kinds of pets throughout my life. I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. With me, your pet won’t just be watched — they’ll be cared for like family. 💛 Haaay! 🌾 *ba-dum tss* As you see being a stand up comedian wasn’t my calling so here I am 🥲 My name is way too long so I just go by Mari I’m a stay-at-home mom with lots of free time and even more love to give your fur babies! I’m not a regular mom, I’m a cool mom! 😎 I currently live in Vancouver, Being home most of the day means I can give your pet plenty of attention, care, and one-on-one time. I’m available for walks and drop-ins on weekdays from 7am–4pm and Sundays from 7am–1pm, with flexibility whenever possible to help fit your schedule (I remember how hard it was finding help when I had my pups and ended up taking them to work with me) Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, a potty break, or extra cuddles, I’m always happy to help! We will spend much time out exploring, enjoying fresh air, getting in plenty of movement and mental stimulation. Walks, sniff breaks, and outdoor adventures are very important to me in order to keep a pup happy and healthy! I’d love to be your fur baby’s (and yours!) new friend and help make their day (also yours!😌) a little brighter!✨🐾🩷 Expect lots of cute photos and videos so you can see your fur baby’s enjoying every walk, play session, and cuddle break.📸 Your fur baby's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities — they’ll get plenty of love, cuddles, and care, and will feel right at home!🩷
“Sophia was a fantastic sitter for Cheddar. It was such a relief while I was away for a longer trip! She was communicative, sent great Cheddar photos, and even made my return home a little easier by taking the litter waste out. I really appreciated Sophia’s watch of Cheddar! Thank you!”

“Jared was exceptional. From the moment we arrived, he was warm and welcoming to my pup, instantly putting us both at ease. Throughout the day, Jared kept me updated with thoughtful messages and photos, which I truly appreciated. His communication was clear and thorough, and he even informed me promptly when my pup had a minor nosebleed. Knowing that Jared has a vet tech background gave me complete peace of mind, and I was confident that my pup was in safe and capable hands. I can't recommend Jared highly enough and am eager to use his services again in the future.”
“I used Araceli's day care for my boy! She had a few other pups in her care for him to play with (which was exactly what I was hoping for). He returned to me tail wagging and went right to sleep when we got home 😁”
About: I am a nurse, but I have always wanted to work with dogs, and I see this Pet Care opportunity as a chance to fulfill my childhood dream. I'm thrilled with this pet care opportunity because of my deep love for animals. I believe my nursing experience will be valuable, as caring for patients has taught me compassion and attention to detail, which I hope to bring to the pets in your care. I would love to contribute to your team and learn from your experiences in pet care. Thank you for considering me, and I look forward to connecting and sharing our mutual enthusiasm for animals. I am happy to adjust my schedule if needed to help out, so please feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss specific times. Looking forward to your response. I live 10 minutes from Portland Airport. I understand how important your pet is to you, and I am committed to providing attentive, loving care that ensures their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I strive to engage with animals in ways that help them feel secure and appreciated, including maintaining familiar routines. My home features a spacious, fenced yard where we enjoy daily walks and playing fetch. I have experience caring for my own pet, Macy and in my childhood other animals such as parrots, fishes, and even a monkey. One of my favorite moments with dogs is play fetch—seeing their excitement always reminds me just how rewarding caring for animals can be. I take my responsibilities seriously and am always eager to learn more about each pet’s unique personality and age. To help maintain a safe environment, I kindly ask that your dog be protected with Simparica or a similar product recommended by your preferred veterinarian, such as Frontier, which guards against ticks and fleas Please let me know if you have any specific concerns, preferences, or special requests. I am open to feedback and happy to adapt to your pet's unique needs and routines. I am available for a meeting any day this week to discuss your loved one’s requirements, and after our meeting I will tailor my care to your pet’s needs. Thank you again for entrusting me with this important responsibility. I look forward to meeting you and your pet, and to providing compassionate care that brings you peace of mind.
“Upon initial meet and greet, Margaret was very organized and caring making sure to understand all of Romans needs, allergies, and activity levels. He ran a ton to get his energy out so knocked out right when we got home. Margaret creates a great space for daycare for small to mid-sized doggos.”
“Genevieve went above and beyond for me and my dog today. It was a last minute request for a new dog to spend the day with her and because I wouldn't be able to drive in the evening she dropped him off for me. So unbelievably helpful. I got pictures of him having way too much fun and I could tell when she was leaving how much he liked her. Knowing he was being so taken care of today made things so much easier. Thank you”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since a kid. With 20 years experience in animal care, I have a way with animals that makes them feel right at home. I’m Experienced in caring for both dogs and cats, I provide dependable, detail oriented pet sitting, tailored to each animal’s unique needs. My approach combines structure, affection, and reliability to ensure your pets stay relaxed, well cared for, and loved in your absence. I’ve watched pets for 3+ years as a stay at home parent and I’m excited to meet you and your pet. I’m currently a stay at home parent, so I’m here at the house all day. I have two children, 5 and a 3 1/2 year old. They love animals so much and are out of the house during the day for school. I do occasionally leave to go to the grocery store or appointments, but I’m never gone long my day consists of early morning wake ups to prepare for school days and later evenings tending to the house. As a full-time stay-at-home parent, my daily life allows me to give pets steady attention and care throughout the entire day. I intentionally structure my routine to include regular meals, potty breaks, playtime, and quiet rest, so pets feel comfortable and included. They’re not just checked in on—they’re part of a warm, attentive home where they receive consistent care, reassurance, and love. Pets in my home are cared for in a calm, safe, and loving environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I maintain their regular routines with consistent feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, quiet rest, or extra comfort, I make sure each pet feels secure, relaxed, and genuinely cared for while they’re away from home. My goal is to continue the same routine that each pet has on a daily here in my home. I strive to basically be their home away from home.
“Brandi and her husband took care of Sparky and Remi really well. I’m glad they played together whole time with Brandi’s pup, Nala. We definitely will request another daycare service from Brandi if we need!!”
About: Hi! I’m Megan and I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. I got my very first dog when I was 7, and ever since then, dogs and cats have always been an important part of my life. Growing up, my family always had 1–2 dogs in the house, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. Now, I share my home with a sweet dog and a cuddly cat, and I truly love giving them all the attention and care they need. When your pet stays with me, you can expect: - Lots of love, attention, and snuggles - Daily updates and cute photos - Clear, friendly communication - A safe, comfortable home where they’ll be treated like family I know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away from your pets, so I’ll always go the extra mile to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and cared for like my own. I work from home, so I can give your pets lots of attention throughout the day. Every 3–4 hours, we take walks around the neighborhood, and in the evenings, when the weather is nice, we head to our neighborhood dog park for some extra playtime. For kitties, I make sure they get plenty of indoor adventures to keep them happy and entertained. I live in a gated neighborhood, and there’s a fenced dog park just downstairs from my apartment, so dogs can safely enjoy walks and playtime. For cats, I make sure they have a safe indoor space to explore, and all our windows have secure screens so there’s no worry about them sneaking out.
“Jenny took exceptional care of my senior dog, Charlie. From the very beginning, Charlie was immediately comfortable with her and tail wagging, which is rare since she’s usually a bit cautious around new people. Charlie has several medical needs, and Jenny went above and beyond by asking thoughtful, detailed questions to make sure she could provide the best possible care. She sends pictures and updates regularly, which helped me know Charlie was having a good time and happy. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Charlie was in such attentive and capable hands. Jenny truly has a special way with animals. She’s patient, gentle, and clearly cares deeply about the pets she looks after. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
“Angela seems very professional and trust worthy. Argos has enjoyed his time with her and we will be using her again. Thanks for helping to care for the favorite mammal in the household!”
“Brittany was amazing with our pups. She was incredibly responsive and kept us updated throughout the day. This will be our go to spot for dog care in the future.”
“María is the sweetest soul! she did such a wonderful job caring for my puppy Bones. he came back wagging his tail & ready to go to bed! she got all his energy out! Bones struggles with very very bad separation anxiety, & maría reassured me from the start that he was in good hands & would not be left alone. which has been a struggle in the past with previous sitters. Bones can also have some behaviors like jumping on people or the counter tops, & she did amazing setting that boundary with him not allowing him to hustle her & get away with being a menace! María kept me updated and sent me pictures quite often which i really appreciated! She made Bones & I feel comfortable & confident with our decision to go with her. she is so lovely & i would recommend her to anyone who may be worried leaving there pup w someone they don’t know! María is great!”
“Absolutely amazing was the first time I've ever left my pup with someone besides family and boy did he love his new friend Alexa! She is super sweet and amazing with my pups! She will definitely be the one I reach out to for further pup day care without a doubt! Thanks again”
“Haleigh has sat Rocky on a few occasions now when I've been in town for work and can't take him into the office. Appreciate her responsiveness and I know my pup is in trusted hands!”
“Jenny was great! She was able to accept a very last minute request for doggie daycare. My pups came home last night and they are still snoozy today. I will definitely use Jenny again! :)”
“Emily & Eric took great care of our pups while we were visiting from out of town for a family Christmas party. We appreciate them being so accommodating with the festivities ending a little later than expected. Our fur babies were obviously very comfortable in their home because they are so calm in their crates in the car at the moment. We will definitely leave our girls with Emily and Eric again when we are back in Vancouver!”
“Can I give 6 stars??? Dominique takes such great care of my Beagle while I'm in the office. He loves her so much he starts whining to be let out when we pull in the driveway. 😂 She sends photos and updates throughout the day, is very flexible on his care needs. I think the most important thing is that I can focus on priorities during the day and not worry over Watson's happiness and safety. I know he's having fun playing with Poppy and friends!”

“Marissa went above and beyond for my pup and my roommate's furbabies. Great communicator and extremely compassionate. Highly recommend and we will definitely be requesting marissa again!”
“My dog instantly connected with Mari and gets so excited when she comes over for weekly walks. Mari is personable and communicates well. She always tracks and takes at least one photo while out and about. I would recommend her 100%.”
“My GSD is a challenge to walk and requires long walk rain or shine. Chelsea took on her challenge by giving her lots of love and attention. She showed up rain, cold and shine. She is reliable and communication was frequent. Thank you Chelsea for being Maggie's BFF while I was away.”

I’m familiar with dog puzzles and other mentally stimulating toys (gotta keep those brains busy!) I’m also comfortable with reactive dogs-I owned an 85lb reactive dog and took him safely on walks and hikes with me. The safety/comfort of the dog and any other people/animals is of the utmost importance. I promise to take care of your baby like they’re my baby. I work until about 2pm but have plenty of time in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends to help take care of or walk your pet! Currently I’m not available to take pets into my home.

About: No matter the personality of your fur baby, rambunctious, shy, nervous or high maintenance they will get the care, activity, and attention that fits their needs. I've been around all kinds of dogs most of my life and doggie and house sat through high school and college to support myself. I believe that our four-legged family members are to be seen, heard and treasured and very much understand the part they play in our lives, because of this I also understand the responsibility I have to the safety and well being of your loved one and look forward to getting to know that sweet face that brings you so much joy! I have a huge fenced yard and if your sweetie likes the company of other dogs I love field trips to the dog park!
About: I've taken care of animals professionally and personally since I was a kid. Starting with cats, then getting dogs and learning to train them. In high school I started getting into bigger and smaller pets - rats and then horses. I even have experience with caring for fish. If you've got it, I can learn how to care for it just like you would! I work at a vet ER, so I can do late night check ins for the first half of the week or almost anytime on my weekends (Thursday, Friday, Saturday). How you care for your pet is how I will care for your pet. Tell me all the nitty gritty details and I'll do everything I can to go above and beyond to make sure your animals get only the best.
“Madelyn was available in a pinch, replied quickly and has reliably shown up to give my dog Hiro a much needed walk every week when I am unable. Definitely recommend, and I'm so glad I found her when I did. :)”
“I was able to get set up with Margherita same day within an hour of booking, truly a life saver and was so great to my baby boy Tyson!! Highly recommend and on time every day ???? really took her time walking Tyson making sure he had all he needed and was walked and fed ❤️ thank you so much!! Will definitely be booking her again ?”

I can attentively follow any instructions, for example, precise dosing for meds or the amount of food to give, etc. Additionally, I pride myself on being very communicative.

“Araceli is so kind and amazing! Our dog came home tuckered out and I know she had the best time. She also was sure to send us multiple updates during her stay and she’s super responsive. I completely felt at ease leaving our dog in her care and will be a repeat customer going forward. Thank you, Araceli! :)”
“Our cat and dog were left in good hands with Leah and Chris. We got daily feedback and pictures. We could tell our dog got the exercise he needed and daily activities. In the past when we picked up our cat at sitters he comes to us ready to come home, but this time he just laid there looking at us in the other room, ignoring us when we called him to come. You can tell our animals were well taken care of and were happy.”
“Colleen took really great care of our medium poodle. She sent multiple pictures everyday, and it looked like my skittish poodle got along well with her chill Jackson. Wonderful care and service. Highly recommend Colleen!”
“To start, Danielle had my dog for a daycare, and, everything went great. I received photos showing him walking with others and I know him well enough to know he was enjoying his time. I felt comfortable to go ahead and schedule two overnights with Danielle for him during my next work trip. Things I love about Danielle are that she really pays attention to what you say, the details. She is straightforward and not afraid to express any concerns (such as safety of certain types of collars etc.) Her communication has been excellent. She walks every day with multiple dogs and the pack is such an enjoyable place for my dog. I'm not inundated with photos, but, receive just enough to know he's doing well! We will be boarding at Danielle's as long as she'll have us 💜”
“Genevieve cared for our sweet girl as if she was her own! We could tell our dog felt comfortable and loved the entire time we were gone, evidenced by her behavior when we returned (if she was uncomfortable she would have been way more anxious when we picked her up) and by all of the wonderful pics and videos Genevieve sent while we were away! We will DEFINITELY be using Genevieve’s services again and would recommend her to any family or friends in need.”
“Steve and his dogs were great with my Peanut. She was well cared for and I greatly appreciated the photos and updates Steve provided. This was a WONDERFUL experience and I highly recommend Steve!”
“Karilla and her boyfriend James were awesome. They communicated well and I got lots of pictures. My dog seemed super comfortable. I would definitely use them again!”
“Ann has been my saving grace! I am a helicopter dog mom and have a lot of trust issues when it comes to my girl Birdie…. and luckily, Ann acknowledged my anxieties and assured such great care! She is a great communicator, loves my girl as if she was her own, and is always available! I have to mention that we did have a cancellation last minute but it was because she did not want Birdie to potentially get sick. I think that’s an important thing to consider with the review that Rover posted. No issues with Ann whatsoever, and i will continue to feel at ease when dropping Birdie off!”
“The people in this home made Mabel feel welcomed and loved. How do I know? All of the pictures and updates Christine sent me! I was able to work out of town without worrying about my girl, Mabes. My work can be stressful, and not having to worry about Mabel means so much to me. I will definitely want Mabel to go back to Christine's home!”
“We had such a great experience with Brandi watching our lab. She made Nellie(our lab) feel right at home and with great care. She sent pictures every day and let us know how she was doing, I can’t recommend her enough. Definitely will be going back to her next time!”
“David was excellent! Lumi had a great time playing with the other pups and I think benefited from David working from home, which is what she is used to. Thank you so much, will be booking again!”
“Yuting was great. She communicated daily and sent video and pics throughout our time away. Dave was exercised daily and had plenty of play time with her pups as well! Thanks, Yuting!”
“I have two dogs, one of which has separation anxiety pretty bad. Hannah was able to make them feel safe and comfortable. She sent frequent updates and was flexible and communicative. She was by far the best pet sitter my boys have stayed with.”
“Elaine and her husband and her kids were just what manny needed for the holidays! He had a family away from his family. She sent us photos and let us know how he was doing and we picked him up we heard compliments from his stay 🥰 I’m so glad they both had great time!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since a kid. With 20 years experience in animal care, I have a way with animals that makes them feel right at home. I’m Experienced in caring for both dogs and cats, I provide dependable, detail oriented pet sitting, tailored to each animal’s unique needs. My approach combines structure, affection, and reliability to ensure your pets stay relaxed, well cared for, and loved in your absence. I’ve watched pets for 3+ years as a stay at home parent and I’m excited to meet you and your pet. I’m currently a stay at home parent, so I’m here at the house all day. I have two children, 5 and a 3 1/2 year old. They love animals so much and are out of the house during the day for school. I do occasionally leave to go to the grocery store or appointments, but I’m never gone long my day consists of early morning wake ups to prepare for school days and later evenings tending to the house. As a full-time stay-at-home parent, my daily life allows me to give pets steady attention and care throughout the entire day. I intentionally structure my routine to include regular meals, potty breaks, playtime, and quiet rest, so pets feel comfortable and included. They’re not just checked in on—they’re part of a warm, attentive home where they receive consistent care, reassurance, and love. Pets in my home are cared for in a calm, safe, and loving environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I maintain their regular routines with consistent feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, quiet rest, or extra comfort, I make sure each pet feels secure, relaxed, and genuinely cared for while they’re away from home. My goal is to continue the same routine that each pet has on a daily here in my home. I strive to basically be their home away from home.
“Kristen has watched Watson several times, and he’s always so happy to stay with her (and he never wants to leave when it's time to pick him up)! We really appreciate the photo updates and knowing he’s so well cared for. Thanks, Kristen!”
“Brittany is a fantastic sitter. Upon meeting her we all instantly felt comfortable and confident that she would be wonderful to take care of our dogs. We felt so comfortable leaving them and were able to fully enjoy our vacation. She is communicative and quick to reply to any questions. I could tell by the pictures that she sent that my dogs felt at home. I would absolutely recommend her.”
