“Emily has been terrific to work with, she's been responsive to our needs and been great about working around our changing schedule. Highly recommended.”


“Damaris took care of our 5 cats in three different places and did a great job- she was very loving to our barn cat which truly helped in getting the cat to welcome touch- I’d definitely use her again!”



“Hello Rover,, I'm new to the area and just moved into my house a month ago. Needing a cat sitter, my daughter told me to look on Rover. When i first logged on to your site, I saw Jennie's kind smile and that she was close by. So I figured it would be a win win. Boy, did I get way more than I bargained for!! I don't even know where to begin to express my gratitude and appreciation for Jennie! First, I'd like to thank her for taking care of my cat under more than extreme circumstances! I never thought I could ever get such impeccable service. The story has a twist and becomes even more extraordinary. On my recent trip, on the third day I left the country. Something told me to message Jennie and let her know I could only receive messages from messenger. As I did, I asked if everything was OK. She responded "your cat is ok". This is what followed. Evidently some sort of "Super Cell" developed and decided to dump approximately 6 inches of rain in 45 minutes on my house! Jennie saw how bad the sky looked over my way and decided to make the trip over. What normally is a 5 minute ride turned into 20 due to the rain coming down so hard she couldn't see the road. Upon her arrival, the water was 6 to 8 inches above the threshold, so she didn't want to open the door. She left and came back later to find my downstairs flooded! The water had started to receed and little Miss Wonder Woman jumped into action and advised me step by step as I, near hysteria, hung on her every message, knowing I couldn't get back til Monday (this happened Friday evening !) She moved furniture and pulled out rugs as her daughter and cousin swept the water to the street. She secured my cat in the upstairs and did her best to calm her. Jennie went out and rented a rug cleaner and cleaned my large area rug ( just a cat sitter?! Whatever!!). She turned on fans and cleaned everything she could!! Not once did I ask her to do anything --- she just took care of everything. When I asked her why she did it, her response was, "That's how I was raised, you help people". At that moment I could have kissed her parents on the mouth! My cat is now healed from the trauma, still skittish, but that's to be expected. The house is getting back together, but it would have been a total loss without Jennie's help. Thank you Jennie for working so hard for 3 straight days and restoring my faith in humans , there's still good ones out there! ❤ Rover, you just don't know what you have! Sincerely, Donna Matteson”


About: I was raised with pets. They are a part of the family. I did in home pet sitting for about 3 years. I can easily do so for you. I have spent the past summer traveling Europe dog and house sitting. In May I had the house sitter taking care of my babies do a boarding. He received a bad review. Please don't let a bad review scare you away. I am retired, so I will be home with the fur babies. My pets sleep in the bed with me, your's will be more than welcome. I live on a quiet street. Plus I do have a fenced backyard. If you prefer I stay at your home, I can do that also.

“Amber was amazing! She let me know each time she was with my dogs and when she finished! She let me know how they were doing and send pictures! Would love to book with her again!”


“Excellent, second time in a few days and we are happy to have Megan. Highly recommended and trustworthy. My doggie do love her. 😊”


About: I’ve always worked with dogs my whole life from chihuahuas to Pitbulls. Gaining your pets trust and it well being is my main priority. I’m a stay at home as a part time dog breeder. (Pomeranians) I’m always playing, grooming and loving FurBabiez all day long. I can work around pretty much any schedule. I have a fenced in back yard that when they will be out, I will be there at all times to supervise. We have 2 small Pomeranians to keep you furball company and who are crate trained. So if they need to be kept separate they can I’m a stay at home part time dog breeder with much experience. I have all day to take care of your loved furball or FurBabiez I have a fenced in backyard. I have two friendly small dogs that can keep your pump company. I can kennel my dogs if there is an issue and totally keep them separate

“Cathy dropped in on our dogs to let them out while I was out of town for work and my wife wouldn’t be home until very late. Was a great experience just like before and will book again!”


About: I have loved on pets my entire 45 years on this earth. I believe they deserve our love and care for their loyalty and the joy they add to our everyday lives. I would appreciate the opportunity to provide care for your fur babies. I work in the school system, so I get off mid-afternoon and am able to spend time with pets in the afternoons and evenings. Schools are closed weekends and holidays which allows me to spend extra time with pets. I have a fenced in backyard for your pet to run and play. I have 2 friendly dogs, Bella and Dobby, to keep your pet company on the couch. I have one cat, Malachi, who will make a point to completely ignore your pet. I can accommodate a crate or your pet can have the run of the house like ours.

“Thank you Rachel for your attention and care of our cats! You were great with our cats!”


About: I’m a dog and cat mom. I’ve cared for dogs and cats my whole life, but I love all animals! The dogs I’ve had range from a 130 lbs Mastiff-Pyrenees mix all the way down to a 10 lbs Pom-Poo. You’re fur baby will be in great hands with me. I’m new to the area, so my schedule is pretty open at the moment. I’m pretty much available everyday during the afternoon. I’m willing to be flexible. I currently live in an apartment, so unfortunately I won’t be able to look after your fur babies in my home, but I am able to look after your babies in your home. I can play with, walk, and feed.

About: Since childhood, I’ve always cared for dogs. After losing my beloved dog, I’ve longed to feel that special connection again, and I’m ready to give your pup the love they deserve. I work part-time, so I can take your dog out during the morning shift or lunch breaks, ensuring they get the attention they deserve while you’re at work. My home is pet-friendly with a secure, fenced yard where dogs can roam freely and safely. I provide the same care and attention when walking dogs in their own home, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved in a familiar environment.

“Beth was great . She was very nice . I would recommend her to anyone. She did a great job caring for my dog .”


About: I've have two dogs of my own, one is a blue heeler/ rottweiler named Tak and the other is a Vizla whos name is Haruko. Which means sunlight child in Japanese. He has the more golden glowing eyes! I also have been around dogs most of my life, my partners mom got us into volunteering at The Bully Project and we go and walk the dogs just because.My partners mom use to work there too. I also grew up with close to around 20-30 cats at once when I was a little girl, I was always so use to being surrounded by them in my yard and hanging out with them as much as I possibly could. Ive always been real sensitive to animals and their feelings, it's literally a sixth sense. I was currently managing and running my own professional wedding photography business but have slowed down drastically to focus on the little things. Im interested in dog/cat sitting and getting into learning how to grow a garden. Im wanting to take a huge break from social media and work more in the physical world. I also have two dogs of my own so its always been in my routine to care my my pets and take care of them. I have a huge open availability this whole year. I don't recommend having them stay at my own home just because of how high energy my Vizsla is. I do however recommend I come to your home to watch them. I promise to make sure your pets are comfortable with me there, make sure they go outside as frequently as needed to go to the bathroom, take medication, have cuddles, and watch for all the little things. Even keep the active on commands/tricks if they use any, that way they are consistently engaged. Im always outside the entire time with my dogs even though we have a fenced in yard because I want to make sure they don't dig under the fence and escape and that they are truly looked after in the best possible way.

About: Hi! I'm Rachel, I’ve spent years caring for my own pets and helping friends and family with theirs, and now I’m excited to offer that same love and attention to your furry family members! I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I treat every animal like my own—with patience, kindness, and tons of belly rubs (if they’re into that). I do my best to make it an stress-free and comfortable experience for both you and your fur babies. I’m reliable, friendly, and genuinely care about the pets I look after. I have a 9-year-old chocolate lab named Roux—she’s very friendly and generally gets along with any pet. I do always take it slow when introducing her to new animals though to ensure things always go smoothly. I have open availability and have a reliable vehicle to be able to get to and from where I’m needed. Whether you need daily walks, drop-ins, or someone to hang out while you’re away I make sure your pet has the BEST time doing it! I’ve got plenty of toys to keep them entertained, and with living on 10 acres of land, there’s lots of space for them to run, play, and burn off some energy in a safe environment (but also can leash them based on each specific scenario). I’m also happy to stick to your pet’s routine, give updates and photos, and make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. When you book with me, I’ll always be upfront about my availability. I’m usually pretty open (as I work from home) unless I’m fully booked, and if I can’t make something work, I’ll let you know right away. I try to stay flexible and am happy to work with you to find a good time. I think it’s really important to connect before a booking—whether that’s meeting in person or hopping on a quick FaceTime. It helps me get to know your pet, understand their needs, and make sure they’re comfortable with me. That way, everything goes smoothly and you can feel confident while you're away. I highly recommend this with any sitter you choose! Okay, let’s chat—I’d love to meet your pet and learn how I can help! :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being around animals and caring for them. I’m someone who thrives on structure and responsibility, so scheduling walks, feedings, or check-ins is something I look forward to and easily plan my day around. Whether it’s early morning, midday, or evening, I make time for pet care like I would for any other important commitment—and it never feels like a chore. I love the mix of routine and connection that comes with spending time with pets. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment—whether the pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, keeping their routine consistent with feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications or special needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space, keep things clean and secure, and make sure pets feel at ease by sticking to their familiar environment. If pets are staying with me, I provide a cozy space, lots of attention, and regular updates so owners feel confident and connected. My goal is always to make the pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for—like they’re with family.

About: I've grown up with animals all my life. Cats and dogs. If a friend or relative goes out of town or just needs some help, I am the one they call to help. From feeding, bathing, to walking. I currently work Full-Time, 3 days a week, 12 hour shifts. Besides those days, I am available to pop-in at any time. If on those days, before and after work is when I am able to pop-in. Care for them as I care for mine. I make sure they have food and water, that their bowls are clean. If they potty inside, litter or pads, to clean it up and the surrounding areas. Play with them, give them an enriching environment, get their energy out.
