“Kaitlyn has been so patient with my anxious dog! I feel so good leaving him in her care because I know he'll be well taken care of and allowed to adjust at his own pace. She always leaves my home spotless and communicates promptly when I reach out. Highly recommend!”

“Brenda was amazing!!! She took great care of our house and our cats. Sent pictures and updates, and left the house cleaner than she found it. 😁 We needed last minute help, and she was so flexible and accommodating! I would not hesitate to hire her again!”

“Erika was great! Curly, my dog, was well taken care of and so was my apartment! She did a great job following all my care instructions for my senior dog and she did a great job keeping everything very tidy. I would certainly recommend her to others and will use her again!”

“Kaitlyn was great with the dogs right from the meet and greet. She handled their different personalities and medical needs perfectly. She did all that was asked and more. Thank you for allowing me the peace of mind to enjoy this week with friends!!”

“Sabrina took amazing care of our two cats, including our asthmatic boy Sebastian who needs a daily inhaler. We received daily updates and photos, and it was clear the cats were happy and comfortable in her care. On top of that, Sabrina went above and beyond by picking up our mail and even watering a plant (little things that made a big difference). Would definitely recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for a responsible and genuinely kind sitter!!”

“Sarah was very calm and understanding when meeting our anxious and nervous dog Halla for the first time. Halla took treats from her and let her pet him, which usually doesn’t happen when he meets a new person. During our walk outside Halla was a bit of a jerk but she handled him very nicely. Hopefully Halla behaves better next time and matches Sarah’s calmness and kindness.”

“Louis and her family took good care of my dog. He seemed very happy the entire time and enjoyed their company. She made sure to send lots of pictures and check in too.”

“Julie took excellent care of our dogs and our home while we were gone for 5 days. She was very loving, caring and attentive to our dogs. She was excellent with communication and sending photos. She walked the dogs, gave them lots of love and attention and went above and beyond even supplying some more broth for our dog when the supply ran out! I highly recommend Julie!”

“Ann (again) did a great job watching our dog and house while we were on an 8 day vacation!! She sent us plenty of pictures along the way and we have high confidence in her to do it again for us next time we need her.”

“Shobhali was great! I will definitely contact her in the future. She took great care of my two goldens/doodles and kept me in touch with frequent photos she took while playing with them. And, my house was in fine shape when I returned from a 10-day vacation.”

“It was so nice to know we had a reliable, kind and experienced pet sitter! Amy took care of our two dogs, cat, and gecko and sent great pictures during her stay. We were lucky to have her!”

“Sara was great with a last minute booking when my regular sitter had an emergency. I appreciated her willingness to look after Ollie on short notice. She was great with him and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone!”

“Sidney was great! Very attentive, patient and kept us updated the whole time! We have a very energetic pup who is still learning manners and she was patient with him. We also have an old girl who can be a little unsure of new people and she gave her the time and space to warm up to her. The dogs were in great hands! We will be using Sidney again!”
“Mandi is absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our little girl. She provided us with lots of photos and updates. She left the house looking great. We will definitely have her watch Clicquot again. :)”

About: I can work with your dog on basic commands - sit, stay, lay down - as well as dogs who pull while on their leash. I work full time, until 3 PM, at the latest! My schedule is somewhat flexible, based on your needs, but it does vary. Just let me know! :) I have many different types of leashes and harnesses for your dogs walks, I can provide treats, and my fur baby will keep yours company.
“I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with Jess! My dog is always on my mind when I’m away for her, and I knew she was in great hands and I didn’t have to worry! Jess sends pictures and great descriptions of activities and keeps you informed a few times a day. Incredibly professional, and will definitely be booking her in the future! Thanks so much, Jess!”


“Michelle did a great job watching my golden doodle! She made sure to ask lots of questions about his feeding and walking schedule and sent me daily pictures and updates during her stay. I would absolutely ask her to watch Vash again!”

Walnut Grove pet parents share their Rover experiences
We’re so grateful to Shaina for housesitting over a long (and unexpectedly extended) vacation! We returned to a well-kept home and three happy and healthy pets. Throughout, Shaina was helpful, communicative, flexible, and brimming with cute pictures of our babies. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

We had an amazing experience with Jesse! She took wonderful care of both our dog and our cat while we were away for two weeks. She was incredibly attentive, super kind with our pets, and clearly loved spending time with them. She even surprised our dog with some plush toys before she left, which meant so much to us. When we came back, both of our pets were completely relaxed and happy, which says everything about the level of care they received. On top of pet care, she was a huge help with things around the house when they came up and shared really helpful advice for managing our dog’s allergies. We truly felt supported the entire time we were away. We couldn’t be happier with her care and will absolutely be booking her again for our next trip. Highly recommend.

We cannot say enough good things about Jessica’s care of our dear older cat! Jessica was very conscientious of the cat’s medication needs and was a great communicator with us. I felt totally comfortable having her be in our house while we were away and she went above and beyond in keeping it well cared for too. Would absolutely recommend Jessica for your pet care needs.
Shobhali did and amazing job caring for our 3 rather high-maintenance animals. We were so grateful to have such a competent sitter staying in our home over the holidays which can be a stressful time to be away. Shobhali sent tons of videos and pictures and was extremely communicative with us so we almost felt as if we were there. I could see our fur babies were happy and engaged. We came back to a spotless home with 3 content pets. I would book her again without hesitation any time I have to go away!!

Meta took great care of our 2 pugs. I felt totally comfortable leaving for 5 days and her caring for the dogs. We came home and the house was very clean. She even made us a delicious quiche. I am not saying everyone should expect a quiche, but that was very thoughtful! would deinately use Meta in the future. I highly recommend her.

Melissa watched our two dogs and cat over the Christmas holidays. She stayed at our home during this time. She sent updates with photos and videos. She took in the newspapers and mail. She left the house immaculate. She showed initiative to meet with us twice in advance of her . Highly recommend.

She and her helper Christina were great with Biscuit. He is an anxious dog with fear aggression and food guarding issues who will bark continuously at people as they approach the house. Once inside, he begins to calm down and adjust. Biscuit loves me and is cautious with new people. I highly recommend and would reuse either one of them again.
