“Jody was awesome. She is very caring and took great care of my babies when I needed help this week. I highly recommend her. I have 3 dogs and two cats all with different personalities. Jody understood each one and took great care of them the way they needed.”

“I have used Shelbi for nearly a year, and I’ll never use another sitter (if it’s up to me). She’s so caring and good to my furbabies and she goes ABOVE and beyond to make sure they’re safe and happy when I’m away. 100/100, DO RECOMMEND!”

“Artur is great. He loves cats as much as dogs. He is very conscientious. My cat loves to play with him. Artur sweeps up the litter up and recycles my cans. He saw my desk that I bought still in the box and he put it together for me. He is a Ukrainian immigrant but his English is good. I highly recommend him.”

“Had Kendall watch over my cat for two weeks. Fantastic job. Always communicated and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. Make sure to hire when you need someone to look after your animal”

“Karen is absolutely amazing! She is dependable, reliable, and went above and beyond what was expected of her! She took care of my babies for 10 days, sent tons of pictures to me and gave personalized feedback after each visit!”

“Tatyonia is the best. We were nervous about using this service but Tatyonia’s care and genuine love of our pets changed our minds. We will never board our dogs again and highly recommend Tatyonia.”

“I cannot recommend Jessica enough!! I recently took in a stray cat, and had to keep him separate from my other cat. So I was a little concerned to travel. But having Jessica to help take care of my kitties makes it so much easier.”

“Kayla is a wonderful sitter! We had never used Rover.com and read various profiles and she was suggested by the app. We read her reviews and that helped us pick her. Our dog is anxious and we weren't sure how she would do with anyone. It was also a last minute decision to arrange a sitter because of a last minute family trip. She came for drop in visits, one on first day and 2 on second day. Our Hazel loved her and enjoyed her playtime and Kayla was such an answer to prayer. I highly recommend her and we will certainly choose her if we have to use this service again. Again, THANK YOU, KAYLA!!”

“Tatum was wonderful! This was the first time using her services and I will definitely reach out to her next time we need to travel. We have 2 kitties, Priscila and Pepper and Tatum took great care of them and played a lot with Pepper who is extra needy. I highly recommend Tatum, she is amazing and we couldn’t be happier with her services.”

“Emma is a great sitter for my very energetic dogs and also communicated wonderfully. My one dog was very stubborn about getting back into the kennel, but Emma was patient and even reached out to see if there were any tips. She did so well, I'm booking her for weekly visits.”


About: I am currently working as a dog bather and graduated from MVCTC Animal Care and Management. I have experience in small animals and basic training. I am currently working part time so I have lots of availability. I am available anytime on Mondays and Sundays and after 5 Tuesday- Saturday. Times and dates are flexible. I love to cuddle up with any pets if you or your pet would like. I can also easily crate pets and feed them on specific schedules as well as providing fresh water.
“Sierra did a great job with our kitties - per usual! We know that when we’re out of town they’ll be well taken care of. She sends great pictures of them in each rover card too!”

About: I have always grown up with pets and enjoy all our furry friends. I am passionate about making their short time in our lives the best it can be. I am happy to find a time that works for both of us to care for your pet. I am willing to work around my schedule to accommodate their needs. I have a dog at home that my roommate rescued. She is such a loving puppy who needs lots of attention. On the days my roommate is at work I take her on walks and make sure she's fed and gets lots of playing time.
About: I have a great deal of passion for training dogs and horses. I've loved and cared for a multitude of different species, including a sheep! My routine is to come home, have some dinner, and then feed/play with my dog and cats. I'd love to spend time with more pets! It's imperative to me that petsitters understand individual pet body language & communicate with pet parents to ensure that every pet feels secure & comfortable.
“Mary was the BEST! Our sitter had an emergency come up and we were already out of town. I contacted her at midnight asking if she could help out starting at 9:00 the next morning and she responded right away. She was a great communicator and loved our sweet girl for us while we were gone. I highly recommend her!”


About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life. From the best well-behaved dogs to troublesome puppies, as well as a heavily medicated seizure-prone dog, I’ve seen a lot. Greyhounds, pugs, mutts, etc, I’ve either had or cared for a wide range of breeds. I have owned up to 5 dogs at a time as well as up to 4 cats. I do have some training experience with puppies as far as obedience and walking, and have dealt with many dogs that pull on-leash or are reactive. My family members and friends always come to me first to dog sit. I am an animal lover through and through. I love photography and taking pet photos so I’m quick to get a cute pic while they’re being cute, funny, or playful 🥰. I’m working part time, mainly evenings so while you’re at work during the day I can watch your pets and give them all the attention they need, taking them out frequently. Most days I am available until 1 to 3pm. I am an experienced walker/sitter and have the patience for stubborn dogs as much as I do the easy ones. I’m very specific to cater towards each dogs individual needs and will follow given instructions to the absolute best of my ability.
“Sara has been great with my corgi, Cersei! She is always on time and has been incredibly flexible with my schedule. She is also very considerate with Cersei and accommodating to her needs for the past few months and Cersei loves her. She will continue to be my go-to whenever I need someone to help with Cersei.”

“Angela takes good care of Oliver and communicates well so I feel good about leaving him in her care. I recommend her highly. I appreciate finding her after moving to the Troy area.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of house pets from ferrets, cats, dogs, and even rabbits. I am comfortable with all ages of animals, able to give oral medication, take them out and about on walks or to the dog park, I have training experience so if your animal is ill mannered I can work on that if requested. I currently work about 30 hours a week as a seamstress, and use pet care as a way to make up the rest of my income. Depending on the service, time/day, and weather, I would arrive in the mornings at about 9:00 am, take the dog(s) for a walk, feed them, then take them for a second walk. I would spend approximately an hour with them in total. In the afternoon I would either like to take them to the dog park to tire them out or I will take them for another walk and play with them in the house for approximately an hour. In the evening, I would arrive at 5:30, take them for a short walk, feed them and take them for a second short walk and play with them in the house.
