1. Elizabeth H.
“We love Elizabeth! She’s great with my Great Dane and has become our regular sitter. Responsive, great with care instructions, and super reliable. :)”
2. Justin L.
“Justin is the best! He came over a few days before the stay to meet the dogs and was very attentive, asking questions about their different needs. He stopped in 3 times a day to check in on our dogs, let them out, feed them, and he stuck around afterwards to play with them. Our dogs aren't always sure about new people, but he was patient and by the end of the weekend we saw lots of pictures of them snuggling up to him. We felt extremely comfortable and relieved knowing they were with someone taking such good care of them. We will definitely be reaching out to Justin in the future - thank you for watching after our fur babies!”

“Lindsay is such a wonderful sitter for our cat Blue! She’s very responsive and always very on time and communicative. She takes tons of pictures and I can tell Blue likes her so much! When we come home from trips where Lindsay looked after her, Blue is always very relaxed and not stressed that we’ve been gone. I highly recommend Lindsay”

“Chloe is wonderful! So kind and communicative. This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous, but she totally put me at ease. She agreed to a meet and greet beforehand and was so patient with my puppy. She also sent thoughtful updates with plenty of pictures and was respectful to my living space. Highly recommend, thanks, Chloe!”

“ARI is a great cat sitter, sincerely understands cats and their quirks. I looked forward to her little updates, which always made us giggle at how quickly she already understood our cats personalities... Ari also takes seriously great head shots! All in all she followed our instructions to a T and I felt so much more comfortable havving known she was checking in on them! 😻😻”

10. Cindy O.
“Cindy has dog sitter for my wife and I many times over the last 5 years. Duration has been between a quick visit to feed and let outside to coming over multiple times a day for a week when we were out of town. Cindy is great with animals and our late Luna (dog) really loved her. I would definitely recommend Cindy to take care of your pet(s) while you’re away. Either in a pinch or a scheduled trip, she has always been reliable and extremely pet friendly.”

14. Caitlin C.
“Caitlin is amazing! She took extra great care of our cat while we were away for 10 days and made her feel like we never left, by giving her lots and lots of love. We’ll definitely work with Caitlin again in the future!”
15. Petey P.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. I currently have 4 furbabies with my partner. I have 4 years of fostering experience as well. From walks, to baths, to deep cleaning the liter box and poop scooping duties I don’t mind doing it all! I am currently looking for a part time or full time job so my pet care availability is wide open and very flexible! Especially for house sitting and pet care in your home. I have a large fenced in yard full of toys, a dog splash pad and raised dog beds to keep them cooler in the heat. They will have three furbaby friends to hang with and if they need their own space we have a spare bedroom to give them privacy.
16. Kenneth D.
“As long as i've known Kenneth Dumas he's always been found to be a compassionate lover of animals, especially dogs. He's taken in big dogs like labs, medium mixed-breed dogs, and small dogs like terriers. Strays off the street and dogs people have trusted to take care of in their abscence, whether the owners were going away for a temporary summer vacation, moving to another state and the owner couldn't bring the dog with them for whatever reason, or simply a family dog that the owner, unfortunately was getting older and less mobile. Kenneth is always the go-to guy to help out in that regard. When I last saw him late last year he had adopted an adorable brown and white mid-sized dog named Bella. Bella is by all accounts a loyal, protective, and fun loving dog who Kenneth has very-well trained whether she's inside or outside chasing sticks. This isn't surprising considering who her caretaker is. Also, Kenneth has told me that one of the more personal reasons he enjoys walking and taking care of dogs is that the daily dog walks he goes on allows him to stay fit, "get his steps in" , I think is the phrase. So in conclusion, I think Kenneth Dumas would make an excellent pet caregiver to anyone who would solicit his services. He's attentive to the animals needs, has no problem taking them to parks to run out that energy, and has a demeanor that any animals that are fortunate enough to meet him immediately trusts and sense that he'll make sure they are happy and healthy. Can't recommend enough.”
17. Amberly F.
“From our first conversation, I knew I was making the right choice choosing Amberly as our sitter. She's attentive, communicates well, flexible, very generous with her time, and went above and beyond to make our very needy dog comfortable and happy. Amberly really helped ease my anxiety about leaving our pets and did a fantastic job taking care of them all.”
18. Michelle R.
“Michelle is a sweet and fun loving friend! She has several pets herself and is a living fur momma. She’s always relaxed around my large dog, and I know she’d be good with your fur babies too!”
19. AjaLaia H.
About: I’m 21 years old, and a full time student. I’m currently not able to have furry friends where I live, but I miss having them. I figured I’d see if anyone needs help with their loved ones! I’m most familiar with puppies (and kittens so see my cat care profile)! Feeding, bathing, administering medicine, cleanup duty and playtime patrol! For older/ adolescent, teen-adult dogs I do the same but including more walking and even runs sometimes. I’m pretty flexible, however I do work a full time job and also attend college full time. As of now, my Wednesdays are completely unavailable. I don’t mind working early on the weekends, preferably not Sundays, but I’m flexible. As for the rest of the weekdays I am available after 4:30PM until about 9-10PM. I care for anyone’s pets as if they were my own. Furry friends or furry family are important and I pride myself in loving them all. Some people just don’t understand!
20. Jordan B.
“Jordan has been nothing shy of exceptional with my dogs and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and fantastic dog sitter.”
