“The kids were happy. Good communication, lots of photos and video. It was a great place with a good yard for them to play. She took good care of our perrhijos.”

“Edith was wonderful,she kept me updated everyday with pictures and text messages. We were gone for ten days and I could enjoy my trip knowing she was taking care of and giving the best care to my two dogs. It’s great to feel free to travel and know that your pet is well taken care of. We look forward to working with Edith again and we’ll recommend her to our friends.”

I would be super happy to bring him back and would highly recommend.”

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. My family growing up never had less than 3 pets at a time so I've grown up loving and rescuing animals including taking care of outdoor feral cats,stray dogs, etc. I currently have two cats of my own and hope to have more in the future at the very least by fostering :) Besides when working my 9/5 or rover I spend most of my free time with my cats. I also keep a cat crate and food in my car in case I ever see any stray cats and I have a humane trap at home. I have raised puppies and kittens from 2 months old and have had elderly pets that have lived to be 19 years old so I have experience with lots of pets of different ages, breeds, and personality types. I've taken care of upwards of 7 cats all in the same household so I am also experienced with caring for multiple pets including households with multiple cats and also dogs. I also have experience to varying degrees with deer, rabbits, horses, chickens, quail, and fish. I think pets are family and best friends and I am excited to meet yours and give them lots of love and attention I may be wearing a mask - don’t worry I’m not sick I am very immunocompromised so I mask around strangers just as an extra precaution so I don’t get sick For daycare or boarding for dogs I would prefer they are cat friendly but accommodations can be made for sure! Currrntl due to my job I can’t do morning drop ins or walks during the work week but can on weekends and can still do boardings. There are some afternoons where I occasionally have avilability and my availability is subject to change so please feel free to still message to ask :) I still do have lots of weekend free time too :) I’m happy to watch multi pet house holds and do daycare for multiple dogs if you have more than one! During meet ups I may be wearing a mask - don’t worry I’m not sick I am very immunocompromised so I mask around strangers just as an extra precaution so I don’t get sick In my own household I would provide them with their own toys, food and water bowls, and take them for lots of walks if applicable. My pets and any animals here are allowed to be on the furniture like the couches and bed but I usually put a blanket and a small bed on the ground in case some babies feel more comfy with that. I am more than happy to also crate them!
“Duane and Lauren were wonderful to work with and took great care of our two dogs!!! Their communication was terrific and they were very flexible. We would love to have our dogs stay with them again!!”

“Olivia watched my cat, Tony, for 8 days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She made me feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care alongside her two cats. I received daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Tony was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. 10/10!”

“Nala’s usually quite shy especially with initial meetings but she was immediately fairly comfortable and seemed so relaxed when we came to pick her up. Ben is very thorough with verifying care information and he gives frequent updates. Great communication and great care. We will definitely be requesting their services again!”
“Excellent! I really appreciated all the updates and photos from Stefanie. Great communication and flexible with drop off and pick up times. Will definitely use again in future.”


“Lorelei was great to work with. She responded quickly and answered all my questions. She took great care of our cockapoo, Callie, who can be very anxious and slow to warm up. Lorelei sent us daily pictures so we could see how she was doing and all the fun they were having. I would highly recommend Lorelei.”

“I'm so thankful to Anna for watching my cat, Bella! Although fine on her own, Bella was recently prescribed daily medications which she graciously gave. More importantly, Bella seemed to enjoy her company, so much so that I may have been replaced as her favorite human. I will definitely be reaching out to Anna in the future!”

“Darby's updates were super informative while I was away, having information on how much food my cat ate and what they did during the visit. I was always glad to get photos of my cat enjoying herself in the update!”


“Carly took care of Chester for 1 week as drop-in sitter. My cat looks healthy and handsome as ever. I arrive with a chatty cat greeting me and I get it. I will book Carly again in the future because she not only took care of my cat’s needs (spoiled-prince) but she also respected my place and she is trustworthy and professional.”

“Keezieng's assistance was a lifesaver this holiday season. His politeness and kindness when meeting us and our cat Olivia was reassuring and he did a great job of updating us during his visits while we were away. We’re so grateful for the excellent care provided!”

“Keely was great. Good communication and took wonderful pics of my cats during her visits while making sure everything was in order. Couldn’t have gone any smoother.”


“Megan is such a great sitter for my girl! She takes her time with Peach, even when she gives some sass, and gives her the space she needs, while also making sure she has plenty of playtime and all her needs are met! I’m thankful to have found her.”


“Vanessa really has a way of putting me and the cats at ease. She was very professional during the meet and greet, took notes while I explained the feeding routine and asked relevant questions. I left for my trip knowing the cats would be in good hands. She also takes great pet photos. I felt like she really respected each of my cats and their individual boundaries. I highly recommend Vanessa to anyone needing cat care.”

“Claire was an excellent sitter for our two cats. She provided us with some great pics, played with and brushed them. She was also accommodating with last-minute scheduling change for her start date/time. We hope she’s available for us the next time we need someone.”


“Brittany did a great job watching my two cats! They can sometimes be a bit wary of new people, but they were playing with Brittany during her second visit. I also booked pretty last minute and Brittany responded right away after I sent her the booking request. Thank you, Brittany!”


“Nasimul and Dominique took great care of my two cats. They went above and beyond to make sure that they were well cared for and entertained while I was traveling, and they kept me updated with lots of photos.”

“Madalyn is amazing and goes above and beyond with pictures, videos, and communication! She took amazing care of my diabetic cat who needs insulin. Thank you Madalyn! ☺️”

“Lydia did a great job dropping in to take care of my cat. She had to give pills, kept me updated well, and sent pictures every time! My cat seemed happy when I returned and the house was well taken care of. Would hire again!”


“Chelsea was kind enough to visit our cat on short notice. She did a great job visiting with Blue, sent us lots of photos, detailed updates, and our cat loved her!! We definitely recommend her :)”


“Kathryn did an amazing job caring for my grumpy old cat, Rumor. He doesn't usually like strangers, but she got him to play with toys and always spent time with him. I felt better knowing that she was checking in on him everyday!”

“Elizabeth was so great and accommodating!! Prompt communication and did a fabulous job with my cat. She provided a peace of mind while I was away.”

“My little Westie loves Suellen and her two sweet dogs. They treat her like one of their own. It's great for me to be able to drop her off for the day, knowing she'll have fun and be safe.”

“Ben was phenomenal - helped us out in a pinch to provide fun and stimulating daycare for our puppy. Super professional, great at providing the right amount of stimulation/rest/play for our pup, and very communicative. 10/10 will definitely be bringing our boy to Ben again!!!”

“Hi Elizabeth, I just wanted to say thank you for taking such great care of Fox! I really appreciated the updates while I was away. It’s clear you gave her lots of attention and care, and I could tell she was happy and comfortable with you. I’d absolutely trust you again and would happily recommend you to others. Thanks again!”
“Briana is such a kind and empathetic individual! Although my doggy day care was last minute, I felt reassured that Semi was in good hands. Truly someone you can trust with your pups!”

About: I work remotely and have a fenced in yard so I’m able to look after and hang out with your dog throughout the day. My dog, Milo, is a pup who is the chillest pup I’ve ever met but also loves to play with other dogs and say hi to strangers. I make an effort to make sure owners pets stick to their schedules and I enjoy the active time with them too. I work from home allowing me to watch over pets throughout the day and ensure they have enough outside time and whatever else they may need. I try to stick to owners house rules and routines. I’m an early bird allowing for morning time to get energy out and for pets to start their day with me.
“Julie was very friendly and accepted our booking late the night before we needed her to look after our dog. She took great care of Truffles and sent us plenty of photos throughout the day.”


“Nicole and her kids were great. They were very kind and caring with my dog snooper. They have two other dogs that of course want to protect their owner .. but Nicole was careful to keep them on leash or contained during meet n greet. She thoughtfully considered my apprehension about leaving snooper with 3 dogs (they had another for day care I learned later) and figured out ways to keep the dogs separated. The kids were so loving to little snooper I think he had a lot of private attention! Nicole sets a great example for dog care for her kids—- as did her father who was around during meet and greet. So nice to see children take such loving interest in animals.”

“Robert is one of my favorite Tover sitters. He is incredibly professional and takes good care of my little peanut, Ziva. Gives walk reports and sends a few pix during the day. Highly recommended; I have referred him a few others. He is a busy guy - book early! Thanks so much🐾♥️🐾.”

“Our 3 dogs love going to Kara’s. They run in the door and barely look back at us. We know they’re having a great time by the photos Kara sends us during their stay. She takes wonderful care of them.”

“Julie did great job making me and my dog Stella Watson very comfortable from meet and greet thru 1st daycare visit. Stella had wonderful time playing with Zilla and zooming around the yard and house. Will be hoping to visit again soon!”

About: With 25 years of experience in pet sitting and dog walking, I’ve built strong, trusting relationships with pets and their owners. I understand the unique needs of each pet, and I’m dedicated to providing loving care, whether it’s a walk in the park or quiet time at home. Your pet’s well-being and happiness are my top priority. A typical day in my care includes plenty of love, fun, and attention. We’ll go for a walk around the neighborhood, or explore the fenced-in yard for playtime. Whether it’s feeding, medication, or cuddles, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and at home all day long. I prioritize your pet's safety and well-being above all else. I excel at creating a calm, secure, and trusting environment where pets feel at ease. Whether it’s ensuring they’re comfortable in their own space, taking extra care during walks, or following specific routines, I treat every pet like family. You can trust that your pet will be in safe hands, enjoying personalized care while you’re away.
About: I've had dogs ever since I was a little kid and would do anything for them. I've also worked with dogs for the past 2 years. I have a Rat Terrier of my own and will make sure to treat your dog like they're my own. I’m used to all kinds of dogs whether it be age, energy level, or condition as I’ve had a mix of all at my job and growing up! I'm a student with lots of breaks between my classes meaning I’m usually only gone for less than two hours and I have lots of free time on the weekends. Max I’ll be gone is four hours, but that rarely happens. My dog is very friendly and energetic, but also knows when a dog doesn’t want to play. She’s very silly and loves to sleep! I live near the lake and can take your dog out often as there’s a nice trail along the lake and campus is pedestrian friendly. I live in an apartment, so I’m looking to host dogs who are comfortable in a quieter environment. Since I share walls with neighbors, I’m best suited for dogs who aren’t big barkers. That being said, I love dogs with a personality! A little energy and playfulness is totally welcome, I just ask that barking is kept to a minimum. Dogs are allowed to free roam around the apartment whether I’m with them or gone. If your puppy has energy to burn but knows when to settle down, we’ll get along great! In your own home I will take on any type of dog with any energy level! I will make sure to care for your dog while you are away just as you care for them while you’re in your house. A dogs safety and their comfort are a top priority for me! I also have a fenced in patio with dog grass if your pup needs a quick potty break!

“Anna is always communicative, professional, punctual, respectful, and, most importantly, fantastic with my animals! Both my dog and cat have warmed up to her so much in the last few months and look forward to her visit every Friday.”


“Tucker would literally try to jump out the kitchen window to get to her for his walk. He loved it so much. Carley was so nice and sweet with Tucker. If we weren't moving across the country I would still want her to walk him”

About: When I lived in Arizona with 6 Boarder Collies, we walked together every morning. I helped my brother care for them, throw balls to them and swim. I love to massage animals. I would love to sit on long weekends overnight. Your pet will feel safe and cared for. I have cared for cats as well. and I owned a cat for 7 years. I am great with following instructions if your pet has special diet needs or any other special needs. The pet owners will feel extremely comfortable leaving me with their pet, as well as coming home from a trip. I also have experience with brushing and bathing dogs. , and brushing cats . I hope this helps to know about what kind of care I would provide for your pet.

About: I have been an animal lover all of my life; from dogs, to cats to rodents and turtles and more. I know that a well-trained pet requires attention and routine. I am proud to offer consistent potty breaks, playtime and walks to keep your best friend happy and healthy while you are away. I am more so available on the weekends (Friday-Sunday) but am willing to help with daily potty breaks, meal time and walks throughout the week. I have a pretty flexible schedule so if you do require overnights during that week, I am willing to accommodate. I look forward to helping you feel more secure in your decision to use a pet sitter over leaving them in a kennel. Your pet family will be welcomed as one of my own.

About: I have done petsitting (cats and dogs) for over 15 years. Usually for animals where I personally know the owners and have spent time with the animal to create a bond/relationship. I want to full disclose with new perspective pets parents: I have a full time, in-office job with the standard business hours, Monday through Friday. If that's not what you are looking for in a house sitter, I understand. If I had a pet of my own, I would ensure all their needs are met. As a petsitter, I would to ensure their animal's life doesn't change or I could make it better in some small way especially since their parent(s) is gone I stay at the animal's home to care for them so their life isn't different than what it usually is for them. Changing their environment can be quite shocking and stressful to them. I try not change their lifestyle too much while the parent is gone
About: I've helped out at a shelter for a large chunk of my life before I moved for college, taking care of dogs and cats. I have some experience with basic training as well. I'm currently in college so my schedule changes with my classes, and outside of school i'm usually hanging out with my cats but I'd be happy to share that love with your pets as well. I try and keep any pet in my care safe, even if I'm only giving them a walk or checking in on them. I care for any pets just like they are my own.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 - that’s when I got my first dog. Now I have 2 active pups that I love to ski, hike, & run with. I love to help other dogs get some exercise & enrichment. I have experience implementing behavior therapy (for kids), but it had made me confident in my behavior & training skills with dogs as well. I’m a special education teacher so I currently have the summer free to get outside with your pup(s). I can be flexible so please reach out about your specific scheduling needs. I have a fenced yard & two dogs to keep your fur baby(s) company. Although, I prefer to tend to dogs in their own home where they’re most comfortable.
