“Stephanie did a wonderful job house-sitting and taking care of our elderly cat, Cinnamon, while we were away. She was quick to respond during the scheduling process, which made everything straightforward and stress-free. She cared for Cinnamon with attention and kindness, ensuring she was comfortable throughout. Stephanie also kept us updated with regular check-ins, which gave us peace of mind during our trip. We returned to a clean home and a content cat, which we greatly appreciated. Stephanie was reliable and accommodating, and we would happily work with her again in the future.”
“Peter took care of our 5 yr old Husky Mix and 8 month old Labrador while we were out of town. This included house sitting. The pets got great care and play time and the house was well taken care of. Highly recommend! I hope he can pet sit for us in the future.”
“Kyleigh did such a wonderful job watching the dogs! She left our house clean, even stripping the bed for easy washing. We came home and it was felt like we had just left! We’re so grateful for her taking care of our babies!”
“Hannah did a great job with our senior dogs. My wife and I were away for 5 nights and received great communications and cute photos. One of the nights was the Fourth of July so Hannah had to give extra TLC during inevitable fireworks. She left the house in great shape, too. We could barely tell anyone had even been here! Would hire again for sure!”
“We have used Jillian for dog sitting/housesitting multiple times. We are always pleased with her expert care of Sophie, response to any special needs or schedule, and respect for our home. Jillian continues to be our first choice.”
“Hayden provided our two pups EXCEPTIONAL care while we were gone on a 5 day trip. Our senior dog requires medications multiple times a day, and Hayden was able to administer them all with no issue!! She kept us updated with photos throughout our whole trip, it gave us such peace of mind. I can’t recommend her enough!!! We are so grateful for her & know our pups love her just as much!”
“Courtney did a great job house sitting and doing drop-in visits for our cat and dog. We were much less anxious going away knowing Courtney was taking care of our girls.”
“Morgan did a great job taking care of our elderly dogs! It was a bit of a last minute trip so we were grateful she was available for a holiday weekend. When we got home the pups were happy and the house looked as if no one had been here. Highly recommend!”
“Saskia was absolutely phenomenal caring for our dog and two cats while we were away. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared for our pets and treated them as if they were her own. When we returned home, our pets were happy, well cared for, and our house was left in pristine condition. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Saskia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Ashlyn took wonderful care of our golden while we were away for a long weekend, and was great about sending us updates about how she was doing. We will definitely call Ashlyn again next time we need a sitter for our dog!”
“Sara is truly a great sitter. She took very good care of my senior dog. I told her and he showed her all of the issues that he has and she handled them with great care which put me at ease. I'll definitely be using her again.”
“Devin was so patient with us while we were helicopter parents with our first Rover stay. She was thorough and sent great updates. She was wonderful with communication. We can’t wait to use her again! Thank you, Devin!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 7 years for some of my family, friends, and neighbors. I have tons of experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m a very active college student and athlete, so I love the opportunity to take long walks, playing fetch, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they deserve. I’m currently a college student on summer break a more than flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week. I’m more than willing able to do walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care. Moreover, I’m committed to being very communicative and reliable, your pet is a part of your family, and deserves to be treated that way. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your needs and will always make sure your pet receives plenty of attention and care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are, of course, my top priorities. I will follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and household routines to the letter, treating the pets as if they were my own. I strive to always maintain a clean and safe environment especially during walks and outdoor activities. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, so I never rush the time to build that trust crucial to a healthy relationship.
“Saraelizabeth was so amazing! She was able to help us out short notice, our dog Indy LOVED her! Super responsive and gave us great updates. She left our place incredibly clean and tidy, way more she needed to! Would definitely have her dog sit for us again.”
About: I love animals, and I’m easy to work with! I grew up with small dogs, large dogs, cats, chickens. I know how to take care of your animal, and make sure they receive the care they need! I can be as present or as efficient as you need, if your animal is friendly or cuddly it will be hard for me to leave them! I will kindly adhere to any any instructions within your home, and with your animal. Medication, walks, special food requirements, cuddles, I am happy to do whatever is needed!

Peter did great house sitting with both of our dogs. He was right on time for the meet and greet beforehand and asked good questions. He was very communicative and responsive while at our home, giving us updates. He took great care of the dogs and took them on daily walks which they loved. Would book again!
I would highly recommend Riley. I used his services as a house sitter to take care of my Pekingese, who is very shy. She warmed up to Riley almost instantly, which is a testament to him. He left my house in the same condition as to when I left it: very clean. I greatly appreciate him taking care of my pet and my house. I would describe Riley as very friendly, honest and reliable. He's obviously a pet lover. What more can you ask for in someone to help you with your pet's needs?
I had an amazing experience with Meg, who stayed at our house and took wonderful care of our two dogs. She was reliable, communicative, and left the house spotless, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Meg to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
Joy stayed with our sweet dog, Scout on Thanksgiving evening. I had given up hope of finding someone to stay with him.. Scout has separation anxiety and can not be left alone. Joy came to the rescue and Scout really liked her right away. She text me pictures of Scout with updates on how he was doing. In one of the pictures I could see that she was sitting on the floor next to Scout and he looked so relaxed and happy. I really thought that was so sweet! Joy was so attentive to Scout and sweet to him. I would love for her to stay with him again!
Danielle was a superstar for our dog Maddie! She managed a 10 day house sitting job perfectly! Dog walks got done per Maddie's usual schedule, and she made sure Maddie got lots of attention. We got pictures and comments daily. Our home was left in perfect condition—Danielle washed the sheets and towels she used and the kitchen was spotless. She even notified us of an unexpected window leak during a heavy rain and took care of maintaining the mess so no worse damage was done. This was a winning situation for us to have peace of mind while away and for Maddie to feel secure during our absence too. We will definitely book her again as a need comes up—and refer her to anyone looking for loving, reliable help.
