Erin was great! Thank you so much for the many pics of Cheeto and Frito! Seeing how happy they were gave me such peace of mind. I could tell they were very well taken care of. Thanks, Erin for your services! Cheeto and Frito have a new friend. I will definitely call Erin again!

Erin is a wonderful asset to my fur family. I have her come for Drop-in visits three days a week. She is always on time and takes great care of my fur baby.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for many years, and I’ve also helped care for my aunt’s dogs, who she groomed professionally. My patient and gentle nature allows me to connect with dogs of all personalities — from energetic pups to shy or nervous ones. I’m attentive to routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or basic training reinforcement. I follow instructions closely and am happy to help with commands, leash manners, or gentle encouragement for anxious dogs. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with kindness, respect, and plenty of love, so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is an important part of my daily life, and I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they need. I plan walks, visits, and playtime around your pet’s routine, and I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and enrichment activities. I’m available most days after 3 PM, and all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can adjust for regular visits or last-minute needs whenever possible, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I provide loving, attentive care in your pet’s own home, following your routines and instructions closely. I offer walks, playtime, enrichment, and medication if needed, making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

Lauren was fantastic with my fur babies. I am sure the dogs were happy to have a new caring and loving friend. She came to meet the dogs before hand to make sure they were comfortable with her during the drop off visits. She send daily photo reports of them and always responded fast if I had any question. Thanks Lauren

Nicole was so great with Button. She clearly loves our babies while taking care of them for us. Button it's usually very shy, but he really liked Nicole, and let her pet him and take care of him, and she was really sweet, patient and excited that he was friendly with her. She gave me great feedback and pics, so i knew he was being well taken care of. I didn't have to worry at all while i was gone. She even brought in a package from the the porch. I would highly recommend Nicole, and wil definitely hire her specifically for any future needs i have.

About: I am experienced in taking care of dogs including those with high needs that require medications and puppies as young as 3 months. I have had wonderful experience with walking, boarding and overnight stays over weekends. I am very engaging when I care for dogs, always making sure they get plenty of play and exercise if they are physically able, and I enjoy incorporating some basic training as a part of that play. I am sensitive to different needs of each dog and I socially accommodate for each of their needs. I am a very patient and warm caretaker. I build my schedule around my responsibilities and planned pet care but I typically wake up around 7am and go to sleep around midnight. I am used to frequent outings for dogs because I raised mine from when he was very young and he needed to go out about every hour. I have learned to be very patient and read signs of discomfort and needs in order to keep all animals safe, happy, healthy, and comfortable. I have close access to a secluded dog park and beautiful green spaces in a very walkable neighborhood. If I am watching a dog in a new area, I always look for similar spaces where dogs can safely engage with their environment. Within the home, I like to combine toys and training to get the most out of my time there. I am very affectionate towards cats and will help them get their daily activity in. I know some cats are nervous and need their space, and I can always accommodate for their individual needs.

Angela was great and took amazing care of my cat while I was on vacation. Having her there and seeing the pictures she took while I was gone really put me at ease knowing she was taking great care of my baby girl (cat). I will definitely not think twice about using her services again in the future.

About: I’ve always had a dog to take care of while growing up and It has turned me into the dog lover that I am today. I’ve always rescued dogs from the shelters and I know that time, dedication and lots of patience is the key to a happy dog. I’ve worked with dogs needing help overcoming anxiety/separation issues. It is a tough job, but very rewarding. Dogs have always been a major part of my life! I am available most Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays! I may be available some Saturdays/Mondays. Please feel free to message me for more details. I’ve been walking our family dogs my whole life. My #1 first priority is their safety and security. We sit/pause when cars come by, etc.

Kira did an amazing job watching my dog, Callie! This was my first time using Rover, and she made the whole experience really easy and stress-free. She was great with communication and clearly cared a lot about Callie’s comfort and well-being. Callie can be a little shy at first, but Kira was patient and kind, and Callie warmed up to her quickly. It was clear that she was in good hands the entire time. I really appreciated the updates and the care she put into making sure everything went smoothly. I would absolutely recommend Kira to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and I would definitely book with her again!

Our experience with having Ashley watch our cats while we were on our honeymoon, was nothing short of perfect. She made sure to ask questions about our little guys, including their preferences, their favorite toys and ways to best interact with them, and what really made us feel like she was the right choice, was she made it a priority to do whatever she could to ensure we felt comfortable. She knew our little guy Ralphie, (a very sensitive and socially needy pandemic kitten) was a concern for us when we were gone, because he really needs lots of love and attention, and she sent daily updates along with photos of both boys, and videos of playtime. We felt so at ease knowing she was there with them, and focusing on doing whatever they needed, and it really gave us the opportunity to relax, knowing our little guys were happy at home. We cannot recommend her enough and we will 100% reach out to Ashley the next time we need to go out of town. She was an absolute delight and we are so grateful to have found her!
