“Emma was so great with Piper. She consistently checked in with us and sent pictures of our girl. Piper seemed very happy when we got home and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave our girl with.”

“Leesa was a perfect choice to take care of Roxie while I was out of town. Sent pictures where Roxie and Leesa were both happy. Leesa coming to my place works best for Roxie’s anxiety because she’s in her home. Leesa kept everything clean and tidy too. I will definitely request Leesa’s service’s again. Thank you Leesa for being a great match for Roxie.”

“I have never left on vacation without feeling complete angst about leaving my dogs behind. They usually spend the entire week hiding under the bed when we hire house sitters. But with Monroe, they seemed to not even realize I was gone! When I returned it was just like I came home from work that day - they were relaxed and happy to see me then went on about their day. I can't say enough good things.”

“Janice stayed at our house for a weekend taking care of our 16 year old miniature poodle Toby. She was very attentive to his needs and kept us abreast of any changes. She sent us pictures of Toby throughout the weekend. We would definitely recommend Janice to other pet owners and hope to use her again in the future.”

“Amanda is an excellent pet sitter! We have used her services a couple times now and she is very reliable and willing to accommodate different situations. She also gives picture updates every time she visits our pup. She's definitely our go to pup sitter!”

“Tyler was amazing! The pups didn’t seem to miss us at all. She was attentive and provided photos frequently without any prompt. Will definitely be using her again for our pups.”

“This was our first time using Rover. Susan was nothing short of amazing! She took care of our dogs as if they were her own. She also did other things like grab the mail, pull in trash cans and scoop the poop. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our fur babies!”

“Isabella did a great job with our two dogs overnight while we were at our wedding. They’re a handful sometimes and she found time to leave a handwritten note and treats behind. We look forward to booking her again.”
“Dove was absolutely wonderful! She took the best overnight weekend care of our pup and sent us lots of updates. She was thorough and kind. Will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend”

“Isabella did fantastic with our two dogs. Our oldest is usually fairly easy but our puppy is still a handful and she did a wonderful job. We got walk and picture updates regularly and she had excellent communication throughout the situation. Thanks so much!”

“Casey took wonderful care of our furry ones; especially our dog, Crowley! We will certainly request their assistance again and recommend whenever we can!”

About: I love dogs! I take them on walks, day trips, and I do week-long stays. I’ve cared for multiple dogs at once, including a variety of breeds and ages. I have a little special talent of teaching dogs new tricks! Growing up I have always been told I have a genuine bond for all dogs. Whether it’s a fun walk or a relaxing day, I ensure they’re happy and well cared for. As a college student home for the summer, I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your pets! I love spending time with animals and can easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and house stays ranging from a couple of nights to even a full week. While there are a few weeks I’ll be out of town, I’m happy to work around those dates and be as flexible as possible to meet your needs! When I care for a client’s pets in their home, I treat them with the same love and attention I would as if they were mine. I follow their daily routine closely, including their feeding, walks, play time, or just sitting with them so they feel safe and comforted. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I do my best to make them feel calm, happy, and loved. I also take care of the home with respect and keep everything clean and in order. I truly enjoy bonding with each pet and always keep the owners updated with cute photos and videos, so they know their pets are in good hands.
“Rorey dog sat my two pups for a long weekend and we were so lucky to have her. She took such great care of the dogs, sent pictures and when we came home we could just tell they were so well taken care of. We will definitely be returning clients!”

About: I’ve house sat, dog sat, and cat sat ever since I was young. I worked at a dog kennel for two years caring for all kinds of dogs and cats. I bathed, groomed, fed, administered medications and walked animals every day. I currently work full-time throughout the week Monday-Friday 7:30am-4:30pm, but am very open on the weekends and may be able to work remote for special situations. I have some clients who enjoy that I have a full-time schedule throughout the week if they also work full-time so that the animals stay to their typical routine which works out great! I love to take dogs on walks and keeping them busy, as I am very active myself. I have a Labrador that knows every trick in the book! Although, I have also cared for older dogs/cats and know how much couch cuddles mean to them!

Regina took on my very last minute request and put my mind at ease while I was away. Both my cat and bird are recovering from illness, and she sent regular updates and pics. I appreciate her taking such good care of them and helping me feel comfortable leaving them at home.

Rorey did an amazing job with the dogs!! She updated often, sent pictures and loved on our girls while we were away. The dogs got to play, cuddle and go on walks which is all of their favorite things! We will definitely be booking with Rorey again in the future. :)

Janice stayed at our house for a weekend taking care of our 16 year old miniature poodle Toby. She was very attentive to his needs and kept us abreast of any changes. She sent us pictures of Toby throughout the weekend. We would definitely recommend Janice to other pet owners and hope to use her again in the future.

Leesa was a perfect choice to take care of Roxie while I was out of town. Sent pictures where Roxie and Leesa were both happy. Leesa coming to my place works best for Roxie’s anxiety because she’s in her home. Leesa kept everything clean and tidy too. I will definitely request Leesa’s service’s again. Thank you Leesa for being a great match for Roxie.

Danielle was a FANTASTIC dog sitter. She took wonderful care of our puppy while we were gone. She followed all instructions and went above and beyond by being available for an extra day at the last minute and also by administering ear infection medication for our dog. She was very good about giving us updates and our house somehow looked better after she had stayed here. We plan to use her again for future dog sitting needs and walks. So happy to have found such a wonderful person to watch our pets. Thanks again, Danielle!

She is PHENOMENAL!!! I had her stay at my house for a week. I have 4 dogs and they were very taken care of. The house was left very clean too! She sent pics and updates daily and was very attentive and communicative. I will continue to hire her for all of our dog sitting request. I honestly couldn’t ask for anything more from her.. we love her!

We are so glad to have found Brooke! She went above and beyond for our three senior dogs and made us feel totally at ease. She kept us updated with photos, videos, and notes everyday. We got home to a clean house and happy dogs. She was great with our instructions for the medications for the dogs and they all got exercise throughout the week. We’d highly recommend her!

Marin was the BEST!! We are very picky about our sweet Nelly. Marin not only took fantastic care of Nelly, but stayed at our house for the time we were gone. We 100% trust Marin and she did a fantastic job. We knew when we met her that she has that "trust factor". My husband, being a retired police officer is super picky about not only someone watching our sweet dog, but letting someone stay in our home. We had NO worries with Marin!!! She is awesome!!! We will be counting on her on all future trips we have.

Gracie did a fantastic job taking care of my 3 boys. She regularly sent me updates and reached out if she had any questions. She also tidied up my place before she left which was by no means expected but was so, so appreciated! I definitely look forward to booking her again when I need a sitter next!

What an amazing job from an amazing sitter! Christine was extremely polite, communicative, and always checking in with pictures and updates. She not only took care of Delilah, she took great care of the house! 100% recommended and 100% plan to rebook in the future. Thanks again!!

Molly was great with Jersey! This is my first time using this app and I was worried about leaving Jersey behind. Molly did a great job communicating and sending pictures and updates. I felt at ease and was able to enjoy my time away. I will use Molly for any future needs!! Thanks again :)
