“My pups enjoy their daily visits from Chen for a midday exercise and potty breaks! This dog mom is happy as well knowing that they are being cared for and getting belly rubs even when I’m not there. Chen makes sure to send me updates with a cute pic and some notes on how the visit went! Thank you Chen, we couldn’t be more pleased with your services!”
“This was our first time using rover and Chelsea was absolutely amazing! She kept us up to date and our pup loved her. Highly recommend booking with her and she was accommodating to our last minute need and request!”

“They did an incredible job with my anxious pup and went above and beyond to make her comfortable as well as communicate frequently with me. Will absolutely plan to use them whenever I need a pet sitter!!!”

“Rachel did a great job and went above and beyond with the cats. Our notoriously shy cats even made an appearance which is high praise from them. We’ll definitely be using her services again when we go on vacation!”

About: I have always been surrounded by different household animals. Dogs, cats, crabs, fish. I do not currently have the resources to have my own furry friend but have carved time to begin walking and sitting to still have an outlet for pet connection. I am eager to get into a conversation and discuss some options. Chat soon :) I am flexible. Looking to build my work schedule around walking and sitting. I would like to walk dogs early in the morning 5/6 am but flexible to walk at night as well When walking dogs, I am aware of soundings to keep them safe. I will keep them to the route planned and expected to ensure habits follow as normal.
“Paz was very responsible and timely. She showed kindness to the cats, cleaned up after them, made sure they had food and water. One of my cats needs a medicated eye-drop regularly and Paz was confident in her ability to administer the eye-drop. I would hire her again.”

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 7 years old who recently passed away. I live with my parents who are also fellow animal lovers and love when I pet-sit for friends. It brings life and fun to our household to host your furry friends. I currently work part time waitressing a few nights a week nearby. I am off weekends so I have all that time carved out to take care of pets! I have an unfenced, medium sized open field directly across from my condominium building I can take your pet for potty breaks and play time. I can keep them leashed for their safety. My parents, who I live with, are fellow animal lovers who love spending time with animals. I have a lazy cat who spends most of the day sleeping, but he lives upstairs in our split unit with my parents. My unit is entirely separate from where he resides, so if your pet doesn’t like cats, it’s no problem!
“Amy was wonderful. She was affectionate and you could tell that she loved animals. She sent pictures of my puppy when she got there and while she was playing . I would recommend Amy and I will use her again.”

“This was our first time working with Raquel, and it went very well. She stopped by to spend an hour with our two dogs, Tate and Penny, well also feeding them and giving them lots of love. Raquel was very good communicator, was on time, and provided photographs of her time with our dogs. We are really excited that we found Raquel and look forward to having her spend more time with our dogs, Tate and Penny in the future. If anyone’s looking for a five star Pet Sitter on Rover Raquel‘s your gal!”

“Haley was more than amazing when it came to all our needs. It was very easy to keep in contact with her while we were traveling to Europe. She went above and beyond when we saw on our camera of a stranger trying to go through our mailbox and potentially break in. She called the local police and they were there checking the house immediately. I trust Haley with my fur babies 100% and will be rebooking with her in the future. She is so sweet and we got to meet her before going away. Not only did she feed my cats, but she sat there and gave them special attention, which means a lot to any pet owner. Haley this job was made for you. I can’t thank you enough for all that you’ve done!!!!!! I HIGHLY recommend booking with her :)”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats and still love to have them in my life. I am experienced with all sizes of dogs and comfortable with cats of all ages. I have experience in raising neonatal kittens through medication administration to older pets. I am active and enjoy walking and would love to have your furry friend be my companion. I'm also happy to sit with a friendly cat for some pets and snuggles. My pets are my furry children and are spoiled and I would love to be able to help spoil yours when you aren't around. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to come early in the morning to later at night to help make sure your pet is happy. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me the freedom to be available to help provide care for pets and reassure owners. I love spending time with pets, getting to know their personalities, interact with their owners, and provide reassurance that your pet is in good hands. I have fostered cats from a few days old through older cats with medical needs. I grew up with dogs and am comfortable with all sizes. I have experience walking dogs of all sizes, providing medication including injections, and handling animals that may be wary of strangers.
About: I've always felt that animals deserve the best care they can get. I have experience with Senior pets along with Great social skills when talking to people. I'm also a firm believer that Animals will tell you their boundaries and that those should be respected. I also have experience with Rodents such as guinea pigs and Rabbits along with Reptiles. I have a very open schedule when it comes down to taking care of pets. I'm willing to spend as much or as little time with pets that you would like. I have 2 Dogs who are friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats that tend to mind their own and avoid the dogs. They all get along with each other. I don't have a fenced in yard so walks would be our go to exercise. I also have a Guinea Pig but he is kept in his own room the other animals do not have access to.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes and personalities and love them all! All of my dogs have been raised from puppies through their senior years. I recently said goodbye to my Boxador, who fell ill and required special care for many months. Whether shy, spirited, or somewhere in between, I tailor my care to each dog’s personality and needs. I have cared for pups with health challenges and am confident in my ability to provide gentle, reliable support, including medication administration and comfort-focused care. My schedule is currently flexible, allowing for morning, daytime, and evening care. I am available as needed for walks, play time, boarding, and any other adventure that brings your pup joy. In my home, dogs are more than guests. So long as it is okay with their guardian, pets here are welcome to lounge on furniture and sleep wherever they feel most comfortable. My back yard is full fenced in (privacy fencing on both sides and secure, post fencing in the back facing a wooded area). I live in a very safe, walkable neighborhood for those that enjoy a stroll. It is very important to me to respect my client's care instructions, regardless of my own experiences or preferences. I will make every effort to maintain consistency and ensure your pup feels at home at all times.
“Chelsea and John were such great sitters for our 12 year old dog, Moo Cow. They sent lots of photo updates and we felt secure that they were watching over him while we were happy. So happy to have found reliable sitters for our best guy.”

Karen was wonderful with my 2 dogs! She is reliable, caring and kept me updated with photos and messages. My dogs were so well cared for and I could see how happy and content they were in the photos! Knowing they were in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone!

Meghan took great care of our dog, Tucker, while we were away for a long weekend. She was reliable, easy to work with, and kept us informed with helpful updates after each visit. Most importantly, she was very caring and attentive to our boy, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We look forward to working with her again in the future!

Amy was dependable and knowledgeable about animals. She made sure our pet had every she needed. Amy made our pet feel comfortable and communicated with us each time she came to visit. Amy was also very thorough with communicating with us. I would definitely recommend Amy and use her again!

Chelsea and John were very considerate, kind, and took really great care of my pup!! Even helped me out in a bind during the snow storm. My pup was a happy camper and I was relieved to have someone watch her during the unplanned snow storm. I will definitely use their services again.

Sarah was so thorough and earnest in her clear desire to want to make my old dog have the most comfortable experience with me gone. She put Sage’s anxious self at ease almost immediately and was very attentive to her body language and how to respond. She checked in with me frequently and gave me any extra details I may need to know upon my return. Diligent, caring, and just a great overall experience!
