“Kyra was available for us last minute and did so great with our dog, Jenny. Jenny had no issues having Kyra come stay with her. Kyra communicated well with us, was very friendly and super easy to deal with. Would use her again.”
“Samantha took great care of my pups! She provided lots of pictures and took them on many walks! My dogs always enough any time Samantha takes care of them! This is my second time booking with her and it won’t be my last!”
“Linda is a true animal lover. She bonded immediately with our orange tabby. She was even able to bond with our timid, young tuxedo kitty. Her love of animals is felt by our furry friends. I highly recommend Linda as a pet sitter. We're going to use her again. The kitties miss her already!”
“Ashlen was great with my dogs and super easy to work with. She was punctual, friendly, reliable, and kept everything clean and organized. Communication was great, and it was obvious she knew what she was doing. Most importantly, my dogs really liked her. I’d definitely book with her again.”
“Kayley did wonderful with my boy Theo. She's a natural with animals. My dog is a high anxiety hot mess and she handled him perfectly. Thank you!”

“Kary was great!!! I needed a last minute dog sitter for the weekend and she ended up being perfect! She sent pictures multiple times a day and let me know if anything happened that I needed to know!! She even left little cookies at the end of the stay. I will definitely be using her again!!!”
“Emily is fantastic. She took such great care of our pup, Jenny. I really feel like she treated her in such a kind and special way. She took her for walks, sent us pics and communicated really well. I never had a single issue with Emily. I plan to hire her again. I would definitely trust Emily with any animal you have.”
“Rachael took great care of our dogs and house while we were away. She communicated well and sent pictures of the dogs looking comfortable and at ease which we appreciate so much. We will definitely use Rachael again and highly recommend her services.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for 5 years, and it honestly never feels like “work” — it feels like hanging out with the cutest little personalities on the planet. I’ve looked after energetic pups, shy rescues, seniors who need a slower pace, and everything in between. I understand pet body language, I adapt to their vibe, and I know how to make them feel safe, happy, and understood. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them company when they’re missing their humans, I match my energy to what your pet needs. My goal is always the same: keep your pet comfortable, calm, and cared for. Because I’m currently job hunting, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to your pet. That means more availability for drop-ins, flexible scheduling, and longer, more relaxed walks or hangouts if your pet needs extra attention. Your pet will never feel rushed — they get my full time, full presence, and full patience. Your pet’s safety is my biggest priority. I take a very intentional, calm approach to care so your pet always feels secure and protected. I pay attention to the details — locked gates, secure leashes, clean water, correct feeding times, and any specific instructions you share. Trust matters, and I work to earn it with both you and your pet.
“C'Aundra stayed with our pup for a second time, and we're so glad she did! We are so appreciative of her flexibility and support for Wynnie, who was recently injured and needed some additional care including medication and leashed potty/outside time.”
About: I’ve volunteered in an animal shelter for about a year taking care of the dogs and keeping their kennels clean. I’ve also had cats and dogs my whole that I took care of. I love animals and taking care of them! I currently work part-time at a restaurant and do college online. I’ll be working my other schedules around the work I do through here so I should have no scheduling conflicts! In my client’s home, I’ll take care of their pets the same way as if the client themselves was taking care of the pet! I’ll follow any instructions left for me, as well as, play with, walk, feed, and take outside as often as requested/needed for the pet(s).
“I can't recommend Misty highly enough! She was absolutely fantastic with my kitten, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect while I was away. She sent regular updates, photos, and even little notes about my cat's behavior, which brought me so much peace of mind. It was clear they genuinely cared, and my cat was so content and well looked after. I will definitely book with them again! - Very nice having someone Thai reliable in the area!”
“Thankyou sooo much again harbor loved you! Nisa was able to provide us so much comfort in leaving our brand new adopted pup for the day !! Thankyou so much for coming and spending time with her and sending us pics throughout the day :)”
“Claire was amazing with our three dogs. She followed all of our instructions and sent us updates all the time. She went above and beyond being a regular dog sitter and we will definitely use her again!”

Ashlen was great with my dogs and super easy to work with. She was punctual, friendly, reliable, and kept everything clean and organized. Communication was great, and it was obvious she knew what she was doing. Most importantly, my dogs really liked her. I’d definitely book with her again.
Ari is AMAZING!! We had a last minute trip come up and she responded to us immediately, so responsive with all communications. Our animals took to her right away. During the trip, she kept us updated with photos and messages, and we knew when we came back that our boys had been well taken care of. Highly recommend and would love to rebook with Ari in the future!!!
Taylor was AMAZING! I loved getting pictures every day of our pets and getting updates on how they were doing. It was easy to get in touch with her and you can easily tell she loves all animals and is great with them. Our Luna, who usually doesn’t come out to meet anyone, was out to greet Taylor within the first day!! Nothing but good things to say about Taylor and will definitely be using her services in the future. She also was so easy to talk to, we immediately stopped worrying about our animals after talking to her for a few minutes during the meet and greet :)
This was my first time booking pet sitting through Rover with my dog and Jordyn made it so easy! She was great at communicating exactly when she could get to him, sent me multiple pictures and updates everyday, and I never doubted he was being well taken care of. She stayed at my apartment and left the place exactly as when she got there. My typically very nervous/shy dog warmed up to her very quickly and didn’t even need the anxiety meds he often gets when I’m away. I would absolutely book with her again!
