“Caitlin was an amazing dog and house sitter. She was professional, punctual, and communicative throughout. My older dog struggles with new people, and Caitlin met her exactly where she was at - giving her space and helping her through the weekend. As an anxious dog mom, I felt completely at peace knowing Junie was in her care. I highly recommend booking Caitlin for your next trip!”
“Kat was great house sitting our pups. She was thorough in asking for instructions and followed everything to a T, ensuring the pups had a great time. Will definitely have her again!”

“Karla left my house the same as I left it and was very understanding and accommodating to my difficult senior dog. I highly recommend her for your dogsitting needs!”

“Cheyana was absolutely amazing with my Harry! This was a short notice booking and I’m so grateful to have found her. Cheyana has such a calm and gentle energy that put Harry right at ease during our meet & greet, and I could tell she really cared about making sure he felt comfortable. I loved that Cheyana let Harry approach her at his own pace. She was very attentive and thoughtful, sending me photos and updates throughout the booking, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear she is very experienced and really knows what she is doing, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. I would wholeheartedly recommend Cheyana to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and experienced sitter! I’ll definitely book again!!”

“Jules is an incredible dog sitter! She’s done pop-in’s/walks and house/dog sitting for our “spirited”, loving chocolate lab Hope. Jules is punctual, communicative, thorough, flexible, and most importantly took great care of Hopey! We received many pictures/daily updates of our happy girl and our house was immaculate when we came home. We highly recommend Jules and look forward to booking her again!”
“Michelle is the most dedicated dog sitter! She is attentive to every need/want our Gracie had. We will definitely reach out to her again. She also takes and sends the most beautiful pictures and videos. Thanks so much for taking care of our Gracie.”

“Aura is amazing!! I could tell she really knew what she was doing by her thoughtful questions. She even asked permission to take my dog on a walk in the wilderness which i could tell he absolutely loved from the pictures!”
About: Growing up surrounded by a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, and chickens, I've gained hands-on experience in pet care from an early age. Whether it's the playful energy of dogs, the independent nature of cats, or the unique needs of chickens, I've learned how to provide attentive and compassionate care for each. With years of experience, I understand the importance of routine, comfort, and safety in keeping pets happy and healthy. Your pet will be in knowledgeable and caring hands with me. I am currently going to school and have a flexible schedule. I am available Mondays 6am-10pm, Tuesday 6am-10pm, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday 6am to over night. I am willing to stay at clients home to care for pets along with staying over night. During my availability I can let pets outside/hang out with them inside at any time, give needed medication, walk, and play.
“Highly recommend Latifa, she worked wonders with my two post-op spayed (formerly) stray cats who required some special attention. So glad she was able to accommodate us so last minute!”
“Aidan did a great job with our senior guys. We appreciated Aidan's quick responses and their gentle and confident attitude. Aidan also did a great job with our apartment and it was spotless when we returned. Thanks, Aidan! We hope to have you hang with the boys in the future.”
“Seth was wonderful. My dog had surgery and she needed to be fed on schedule to take her medication and Seth followed all instructions. He didn’t just come in to walk and feed he actually spent time with my dog. He also sent me detailed messages and photos. It was a wonderful experience for me and my dog and I highly recommend him for any dog owner.”
About: I have years of experience taking care of my two feline sons Tater and Tot, as well as a variety of other cats, dogs, and even a few snakes, hamsters, and goats! I understand that pets are family and know it is a privilege to take care of your fur babies. I would treat your pets with the same love and care I show towards mine. As a graduate student with remote classes, I have lots of flexibility to take care of your fur babies, whether early in the morning, late at night, or anytime in between! I know how hard it is to be to be away from your pets. I want you to know that if I have the privilege to care for your fur babies, I will treat them as if they were my own and will send you lots of photos to help put your mind at ease! I am meticulous about cleaning up after pets, will monitor their food intake and hydration, and will provide lots of opportunities for socialization, exercise, and play! I will also keep you posted on their daily health behaviors and will carefully follow any instructions you provide.
“Great dog sitter. Showed up on time and quickly bonded with Gumbo. Kept us updated throughout the night and we never were concerned. Highly recommended.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Carissa! She took amazing care of our home and our dogs while we were gone. We have two nearly 80-lb pitbulls, one of which is older and takes meds, and the other is young and rambunctious. She handled it all with ease and excellent communication. You could tell the dogs love her and she loves the dogs. Highly recommend Carissa for all of your dog and home-sitting needs!”
“Mae was wonderful with my (big) baby. It was our first sitting and although Mommy was a little uneasy at first leaving him she sent me pictures that warmed my heart. Spirit seemed relaxed and trusting of her. Very pleased with our sitter and intend to use her again??”
About: Friends have relied on me to take care of their dogs for weeks at a time, both at my house and at theirs. I'm no longer accepting dogs to stay at my house. However, I tend to a lot of friends who travel extensively and have medium to extra large, active dogs. I have a flexible schedule that allows for me to take care of other people's pets at ease. I can take dogs out as frequent as they need. I follow all the rules the owner leaves as respect and trust are important to me. I ensure that they get plenty of exercise if not more, ensure that learned training habits are used, and that they eat healthily.

You won’t be disappointed.”

Ashley watched my dogs for a week while we were on vacation, and she was excellent! She was very attentive and showed genuine care and interest in both of my dogs. She stayed in touch throughout the week and sent daily pictures, which I loved and really appreciated. My dogs had a great time with her. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely use her services again.
I’m very thankful to have found Anne to stay at my place for four nights with my 45 pound love bug. It’s the first time I’ve been able to successfully make arrangements through Rover and I knew as soon as I met Anne that she was the right person. I usually stick to road trips so I can bring the dog with me. It was great to be able to fly across the country and know that my dog was being well taken care of.
We’re so grateful to have Carissa as a regular sitter for our dogs and our home! We have two large pitbulls that take meds and can sometimes be a handful. It’s obvious that the dogs love her and she loves them. She’s a great communicator and a lovely person. Highly recommend Carissa for all of your pet and house sitting needs!
Could not have asked for a more compassionate person to watch our senior dogs! One of our dogs has anxiety one of our dogs can't hear or see and she handled them both with love & compassion. She sent photos of them sleeping & looking great! I cannot give her enough stars. If we lived in the area she would be our number one choice to watch them on a regular basis! Do not hesitate to call upon Rosie to care for your fur baby!

Katie recently stayed with our three large labs for a night, including our 15-year-old with mobility difficulties. My family and I were hesitant to go away, knowing our oldest needs extra care and attention, but after meeting Katie we felt confident he would be in good hands — and he was. From cleaning up destroyed couch pillows to tending to geriatric needs, Katie handled it all with patience and care. When we returned, it was clear the dogs had felt comfortable and at ease. We will definitely be booking with Katie again and cannot recommend her enough!
Beyond my expectations. This is the first time I have had the courage to leave my Belgian Terv with Anyone Julia is responsible. Julia respected all of my wishes. I hope she had time to relax. Julia took them for walks often. I was very very lucky to find such a lovely responsible lady Julia also watch’ed Blu my dachshund
Kaitlyn was great with my girls and house! Everything was just the way I left it. 5 nights 6 days. She sent updates and pictures everyday. I have a reactive dog and a 14.5 year old diabetic cat. She loved/s them and kept them happy, safe, and comfortable while I was away. Thank you Kaitlyn!
Seth was wonderful. My dog had surgery and she needed to be fed on schedule to take her medication and Seth followed all instructions. He didn’t just come in to walk and feed he actually spent time with my dog. He also sent me detailed messages and photos. It was a wonderful experience for me and my dog and I highly recommend him for any dog owner.
I can’t say enough good things about Kimberlee! She’s hands down one of the best sitters I’ve ever had. From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease leaving my dog, Kharma, in her care. She was incredibly communicative, sending me regular updates and photos that truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. What really stood out was her willingness to go above and beyond, she did things without even being asked, and it meant so much to me. You can tell she genuinely cares. For any future trips, especially longer ones, Kimberlee will be my number one choice without hesitation. I sincerely appreciate her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and kind sitter.
Savannah took very good care of our girls while we were away. Our dogs were very comfortable with her and Savannah was very communicative with me while we were away (texts/photos). The girls schedule was maintained and Savannah took very good care of our house! We will definitely use Savannah again!!
Chloe came and house sat for us while we went away this last weekend. We have a full house over here with three dogs and three cats, so it always makes me anxious to leave them in the care of anyone new. Chloe was so wonderful. She was able to coax our fearful rescue dog out of his shell and was also able to keep our ninja cat from going outdoors, (which is always a worry of mine.) She was quick to answer my messages and took great care of our house. I will definitely be reaching out to Chloe again if we need to go away 🥰
