“This was our first time using Rover. We needed to board Charlie for 3 days. Jennifer took great care of Charlie. We got photos and videos updates letting us know how he was doing. Thank you!!”

“Bethany was so good with our lil Gertie! Gertie is usually pretty shy with new people but Bethany got her out of her shell! She sent pictures and updates. Gertie had so much fun!”

About: Taking walks around my pond, lots of cuddles, and play will be enjoyed at my home. Open to working with your feeding schedule preferences for your pet. Weekends, I will be home more to play and cuddle. I work outside of home during the week, but in the evenings I will have lots of time to play and have fun. If you have a crate, I would love for you to bring it for the dog. This way, if I am sitting with multiple pets while I'm gone, they are safe. Also, I will always have a leash in my complex.
“I have been using Gabriella sense January and I cannot say enough good about her. She has been so helpful, flexible, and so loving towards my dog Zeus. I am so happy I found her on this app!”
“Catherine does an awesome job! She gave Elvis love, attention and great care. When he stays with her, he is healthy and happy and we don’t have a worry at all about him. This is a superbly awesome pet sitter!”

About: I’ve taken care of rabbits, fish, hedgehogs, cats, dogs, and guinea pigs. I’ve done so for friends, family, neighbors, and mutual friends. I care for each pet like they’re someone’s baby, because they are! I currently work 8-4, but have a very flexible schedule. I can care for pets at almost any time of the day, and would love to play with your pets! I have one friendly dog who loves to go for walks or run in the field across the street. Our yard is not fenced in, but I have a very sturdy lead they can run on. We have tons of toys, and dogs are allowed on any furniture unless you specify otherwise. I have a crate and room for others if you provide your own.
“Andrea was wonderful. My dog Gracie has severe anxiety and it wasn’t going to work, unfortunately. I ended up having to leave work and take her home. I felt bad for Andrea, but she reassured me she was fine with everything. Some dogs just don’t do well in other people’s homes. Anita”

“Craig is an amazing pet sitter - you can’t go wrong having him care for your fur baby. He spent all of his time with our senior dog Linus, who takes several medications several times a day. In addition, he took Linus on many adventures and played ball with him constantly and had a fun toy box. Linus had his own vacation while we were on vacation. I was able to relax and have zero worries, knowing Linus was in great hands. We would use Craig again in a heartbeat.”
“Becky was so great, my Dog Otis had such a fun time there. She took him on lots of walks, let him swim in the nearby lake, and gave him lots of love and treats. Would recommend her to anyone who wants their dog to have a loving place to stay.”

About: I have been pet sitting for 5 years and have taken care of my own pets since I was 14. I have taken care of puppies and kittens that age 8 weeks and older. I’ve also taken care of an elderly dog in the past. I have trained a service dog in the past which means I can practice with your puppy or dog to remember commands. I don’t work. I am a veteran who is home most of the time. I take care of my own puppies everyday. They are little dogs at max of20 pounds. I have dogs at home who spend the day wandering the house and have ability to go outside whenever. I love to play with dogs and to walk and cuddle with dogs who are interested in those things.

“The best experience. Always. I have friends in town who would surely catsit for us if asked, but I know they would not spend as much time as Brittany does. My cat is in love with her, and the photos prove it.”

“Annette always left a photo and a comment at each drop in visit. The cat room was clean when I returned home. I know she had to travel on some snowy roads to do the visit. I appreciate her help and will ask for her help in the future.”


“Katie did a fantastic job of watching our cats. When I was looking for someone to check on them I saw a lot of people willing to watch dogs, but not cats. Letting someone into your space when you are not home is not the easiest feeling. However, Katie is trustworthy and reliable. We received pictures of our critters, which made us feel they were being taken care of. Thank you, Katie for your caring approach!”

“Karalynn is simply the best – – five stars all the way! Professional, timely, friendly, and responsive. Karalynn sent several photos every day on every visit and I trust that she took care of my home.She played with my two kitties and seems to genuinely enjoy her work. I absolutely recommend her for pet sitting and will be hiring her again in the future!”

About: I have been taking care and watching over cats for the last couple of year. I have two younger cats. I feed them morning and nights, clean their litter boxes and play thoughtout the day with then. I am familiar with giving medication to them.

“Summer took the time to stop by and meet us and our cats before we left for our trip. We enjoyed the daily updates and photos. She even got our shy cat to open up to her. We would gladly use her services again.”


“Debora was here today for her first drop-in visit. She was prompt and sent a couple pics as requested. She also left a note for me on how the visit went. My pup and her hit it off great at the meet and greet.”


About: I am very new to being a cat lover ever since I met and fell in love with my own cat, Leif. Ever since I have been volunteering at the humane society I got him from and enjoy helping out the medical team with sometimes the most feral or sick cats that come in. I understand that each cat has a different personality and I have been able to see a lot of them. No matter your cat’s personality I will be able to give them space or give them cuddles while you are away!
“Craig helped me out short notice and kept my cat for the day while my landlord did some work on my house. He sent lots of pictures and make me feel so much better knowing she was in good hands. 10/10 recommend!!”

“Can not say enough positives about Craig. He was so flexible and accommodating with our changing plans. He took excellent care of Hamlet and sent frequent pictures and updates. He gave our dog so much attention and exercise. Book with him if you have the chance!”

“Becky is everything you could hope for from a pet sitter. We were in her area for a funeral and left our dog with her for the day. The experience was great. Her communication was excellent, she has a gorgeous dog-friendly neighborhood and home, and she took excellent care of our dog. She and her kids returned him to us happy and tired, which is no small feat. I would go far out of my way to leave our dog with Becky again. Thanks so much!”

“Julieth and Noah did a fantastic job walking our 2 dogs twice a day for 5 days. The couple were very good with communication - sending many photos and comments. We felt very comfortable having them walk our dogs while we were on vacation.”
About: I've been an animal lover my whole life. I've loved and cared for cat and dog breeds of all ages and sizes, going back to age 12 when my piano teacher hired me to provide drop in visits to her two Bernese Mountain dogs and two senior cats. I'm experienced in bathing & nail trimming and have no problem sitting on the floor patiently brushing out cockleburs for an hour. I've had long and short hair cats, and have experience providing specific meal requirements and special accommodations, as well as administering medicine and insulin shots. I believe pets are an extension of the family and should be treated just as warmly <3 Pet safety is super important to me - I will fully respect and honor a client's wishes for whatever they need in terms of crate use, off limit areas, dietary restrictions, human and other animal interactions, etc. I'm always trying to learn more about specific breeds and their traits so I can provide the best love and attention possible. I'm also happy to help with whatever you need while you're away - bringing the mail in, watering plants, taking the garbage out - just let me know! I have an almost 8 year old son who absolutely adores animals, so if the pets and their pet parents are comfortable with it, he comes along and provides even extra attention, playtime, and snuggles. I work remotely so my schedule is generally very flexible! Mornings, midday, and evenings during the work week, and anytime Saturday-Sunday. Just reach out and I'm sure we can make it work! I don't currently offer boarding at my home, but when I do, my pets are all very friendly! When in the client's home, I'm very aware and conscious of keeping the surroundings as they were, and using only the rooms necessary to care for your pets. I always make sure doors/windows are closed and/or locked.
“Brittany is wonderful! I can’t Rave enough! She’s been walking Chloe for about a month, twice a day and has been here promptly rain or shine. She’s taken a lot of pictures of Chloe on her walks and has always provided detailed feedback. She even put up with Chloe hitting her on the back of her legs when she’s showing off her many, many sticks along the way. I will definitely use Brittany again and recommend her to anyone who has a pet to 💕 love. Trari”

About: Hello! I love animals so much! I have had dogs and cats all my life. I also have had rodents, reptiles and other animals as pets. You can say that my childhood was living in a zoo lol I have experience taking care of other people's pets and watching their houses while they are away. I like taking walks and will take your dogs with me. I love playing with cats and dogs and spending time with them. I also work part time with exotic animals currently and have a bachelors degree in Wildlife Ecology. I am a very trustworthy and caring person and am punctual and flexible. I clean up after myself and will treat your home and your pets with respect while being there and with them.

About: I have always had a dog since I was in high school. I currently have 2 of the cutest dogs that have gone through training. I have a flexible schedule and understand that your pets are like your family so if you need someone last minute I am happy to accommodate! I work remotely with a flexible schedule. I understand that things come up and I’m more than happy to be that last minute option for you! I am in a central location where everything is about 15 mins away I can check in on pets and take them for walks. I can also do enrichment activities and keep consistency with any training that you are working on with your pets for extended check ins (not a trainer-just attended many sessions with my dogs).
“Gabby is great with my enthusiastic pups and they really enjoy their walks with her. She goes above and beyond and even cleaned up a puppy accident when Mojo had a bad belly. You will be very happy with the care she gives to your pets!!!”

About: I've grown up surrounded by animals from dogs & cats, to cattle & horses. For dogs, I've had labradors trained as family dogs, and as bird hunting dogs. I've had several house cats with varying personalities. I have been caring for my own pets for 8 years, and have been house and pet sitting for others for 3. I've administered oral medications, worked with high energy dogs, elderly dogs, and handicapped cats. I have worked with foster dogs, and trained working dogs. If you are interested in my services surrounding animals besides dogs & cats, let's talk! I am currently a college student and involved in a couple clubs on campus. I'm free most evenings for overnights, and typically have frequent breaks in my day that allow me to let dogs out or walk them. I am comfortable with a variety of training/pet ownership styles, ranging from kenneled dogs following strict rules, to those used to having rule of the house. I work to respect the current training styles as to not disrupt predetermined expectations for animals. I have worked with a wide range of pet ownership styles and can adapt to meet the routines of the animals, from feeding and walking, to rules surrounding furniture and socialization. I work to keep your animals as comfortable and happy as possible.
“Emma has been a big help taking care of our dog. She is prompt, attentive, and easy to work with! And most importantly she is good to our beloved critter. Thanks Emma!”

About: •Working with animals has become a great skill in my mental health journey and has brought me a lot of strength and comfort. •For my whole life I have had dogs and cats around me and in my family. I have a lot of experience with pets touching on socializing, training, exercising and more for about 13 years now. Friends and family have often asked me to take care of their pets for them during time periods that they are unable to. I also have recently begun working on becoming a volunteer at the humane society, so I will be able to learn more about pet care for different ages and breeds of pets. •I can’t wait to meet you and your fur family 🫶 •With personal health struggles I don’t currently work, so usually my schedule is pretty open! Currently I can help you and your pet(s) any day between 12:30pm-10pm! •Out of fear of safety for your pet, I am unable to board them in my own home. However, I am able to come to your house for visits/ check- ins and walks. I am able to accommodate to whatever is needed to the best of my ability, just ask!

I have a history with dogs, cats, farm animals, and nearly all small pets (fluffy, feathered, or scales!). I have often taken in rescues in my life and pride myself in treating your pets as my own. Rates are negotiable depending on service needed and distance. At this moment I do not do over night stays as my own animals do not do well with me being gone all night and day.
