“Elizabeth is wonderful! She provides so much attention and love to our pets while we’re away, and does a great job sending detailed check ins along the way. Definitely recommend!”

“1st time using Alina and also 1st time leaving our 2 puppies and we are so pleased! Alina responded quickly to messages and kept us in the loop with updates and pictures while we were away. We will definitely rebook with Alina again!”

“Juli is absolutely amazing. She makes sure my dog plays and everything and provides updates. My dog gets so excited to see her everyday. She’s flexible with times and everything! She’s great!”

“Susan always does a fantastic job with our Coco-girl. This was a last minute booking and I was so appreciative that Susan was able to take care of her. Susan is our go-to for anything dog related. She is very conscientious & does a great job. We appreciate you, Susan!!”

“Haylle does a great job with my dog Jasper. I am able to work through my day knowing that she comes by in the day to make sure he gets some activity. I get a report card from Rover and she sends pictures every visit. I am very grateful for her care.”

“Kimberly is always so great to work with. My family and I know that our pups well cared for when she’s coming to help care for them. My pups love her and so do we!”

“Jennifer is AMAZING!!! She followed all my instructions to a T in addition to going above and beyond. She sent me multiple pictures every day and was able to make my sometimes skittish cat as comfortable as possible. She even left found "calming music for cats" on YouTube for him to listen to!!! She is clearly an animal lover and I would recommend her a million times over to take care of your furry babies!!!!!!!”

“Jaysea was amazing. She communicated so well with us before and during the sitting. She loved on our dogs as if they were her own. Jaysea told us that she loves animals and that was evident during her visits. She was on time for each visit and stayed the amount of time we agreed upon—even that early morning visit. We’ll definitely use her when we need another sitter.”

About: Please enjoy the $20 off your first booking with me! https://www.rover.com/sit/mariak64305 Animals have always been at the center of my life. I share my home with four cats (three traveled with me from Ukraine and one rescued from Houston) and a Bernese Mountain Dog who’s training to become a certified therapy dog. I work remotely, so I’m home all day and able to give pets constant attention. Before moving to the U.S., I co-founded an adoption center in Ukraine dedicated to rescuing and rehoming critically ill stray cats. I’ve completed multiple courses in animal behavior and publish freelance articles about the latest research in pet care. My dog has completed four manners courses and holds all his certificates, and I create human-grade treats in a professional dehydrator (and planning to start a business), so my furry guests are welcome to sample them if they have no allergies. We have a spacious home with a fenced yard, two guest rooms, and a pool for supervised dog play. I work remotely only a few hours a day, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I’m also very physically active, ensuring your furry friend will never be bored. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment and keep routines consistent to reduce stress. In my home or yours, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, maintain secure doors and gates, and use positive reinforcement for safe play. I keep food, water, and litter areas clean and monitor pets closely during walks or outdoor time.
“Claire is Fantastic. She was incredibly attentive to our pets, reliable & responsible, and we knew our fur babies were in good hands. She has a great personality, her kindest & compassion for owners and animals comes through. Highly recommend”

About: Hi I’m Alaina! I have experience with big animals from horses and cows, to small animals like guinea pigs and fish. I love animals and have lots of experience around different breeds and sizes. I have a 7 year old boxer mix that is my little shadow at home. I grew up around many different breeds of dogs including border collies, golden retrievers, and Great Dane. I have experience with cats however, I am allergic to them so I try not to snuggle too closely. I am currently a nurse so I get 4 days off a week. I am available on different days each week for all your pets walks, potty breaks, or play time! Your pet is my priority! If your dog/cat needs special care for any reason please let me know so I can provide the best care for them. I am happy to follow any directions you have for your pet and answer any questions you have. I can send you updates on your pet during our time together if you’d like as well. I am currently available 4 days a week that changes week to week which specific days. I can be available during the day and nighttime as well. I can provide walking, indoor and/or outdoor play, or just really good belly rubs depending on your dogs activity level and needs. I currently cannot board client pets at my home.
“Bijay was such an amazing sitter while I was away. She provides lots of pictures, detailed updates and went above and beyond. I felt at ease while I was away. I will be booking with her again!”

“Erica was great! Sent pictures everyday and we felt comfortable leaving our fur babies in her hands. We did a meet and greet first before we left town. Thank you Erica!”
“Emma is FANTASTIC! I received a lot of photos and videos which made being away from dogs a lot easier. Emma is so caring with my animals and is the only dog sitter we will be using.”

“Augie and I really like Robin, this is the second time we have hired her and it won't be the last. My senior dog requires medication twice a day; she gets it down without a problem. She sends updates daily and spends quality time with him both of which we appreciate. Thank you, Robin, until next time.”

“We are so grateful for Aspen taking the time to bond & watch our pack for us when we travel! We understand 3 pups can be a lot but Aspen naturally jumps in, giving each dog her undivided attention!”
