“Heather was amazing with Rip & Diesel. I couldn’t ask for a better house / dog sitter. It was a last minute booking and Heather came through for me. I will rebook for sure with Heather.”

“This is the first time I've used Rover.com. I was a bit nervous having a perfect stranger staying in my house. I shouldn't have worried. Shelly was great. My dog is healthy and happy and my house is fine. I was surprised to find she had washed the bedding and towels she used and remade the bed. Thanks, Shelly.”

“Stacey was amazing and went above and beyond for me and my pets. She mentioned she has 3 large dogs and her experience really showed. At one point I ran out of dog food and she offered to go pick some up. She also watched over my guinea pig and took great care of him, since she has rabbits of her own. I will definitely be booking her again and again!”


“Gracie is absolutely wonderful! She is very friendly and easy to work with—she came right out to do an initial meet and greet to see if we were a good fit. She has been just great with our animals, clearly spending a lot of quality time with them, and she has been very reliable and responsive with communicating. Gracie is a great house guest too—she left the house in pristine condition ! We felt very comfortable leaving our home and animals in her care for the first time, and will be definitely be using her again. We highly recommend her services 😁”


“Allison was, by far, the best dog sitter I’ve ever had (in the 10+ years of having dog sitters). She took care of the boys like they were her own. She took care of my house the same as well. This was the first time I’ve ever come home from a trip and NOT had the house smell like dog because the sitter didn’t sweep the floor. She vacuumed, swept, mopped, took out the trash, and even cleaned the bedclothes she used. I came home to some very happy boys who didnt seem worse for the wear AT ALL. She sent videos and took them on walks several times a day. Wish I found her sooner. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“We have 2 dogs. 6 month old puppy and 4 year old. Susan helped train them. She walked them and had them outside playing every day. They were treated like royalty! She’s wonderful to communicate with. You can tell she is very experienced with dogs. We felt like we won the lottery.”

“Rebecca was very responsive and detailed so she knew what was required of the dogs. We got daily updates with pictures and comments. The dogs were very well cared for, the house was clean, and the dogs were happy! We would definitely use her again.”

About: I've had all sorts of animals my whole life including, cats, dogs, rabbits, gerbils, and lizards. I'm excited to take care of your fur babies! I'm available to watch your animals on the weekends and Mondays. I work my other job Tuesday through Friday. I can always start Friday after work as well. I will care for your dogs the same way I do mine. Lots of love and attention to their sometimes very specific needs. I am ready to do anything they need.
“Kimberly was so good with our little cat! She was so kind and took great care of our home and fur baby! She even gave our cat who doesn’t isn’t good with medication her meds twice a day and sent us pics of our baby while we were on vacation! Will absolutely be booking with her again!”

About: Have been around dogs my entire life. I have siblings with multiple dogs and whenever they are out of town I am always the one they have watch them. Currently just graduated and I don’t start my job until June. I’m free all times of the day and any day of the week works. Spend time with them and make sure they’re are staying out of trouble. Treat every animal the right way when taking care of them at all times.
About: I did an internship at medical mutts where I trained service dogs and helped take care of them. I’ve watched friends dogs. I train dogs too! I’m not really doing anything, so I’m available pretty much whenever, I am totally flexible. I can do long term or short term schedules. I want your dog to be safe! I’m unfortunately not able to do boarding at my house, but I can take your dog out to see my little brothers or my grandma because she loves dogs, I can take your dog to the park and I can even train your dog!
About: I’ve had over 10 years of experience caring for dogs from growing up around them and helping care for family pets. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, giving lots of attention, and making sure dogs feel comfortable and safe. I also studied with the goal of becoming a veterinarian, which helped me learn more about animal behavior and proper care. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I have a dog of my own and have grown up around animals. I’m already used to responsibilities like feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for every day. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so pet care feels like a rewarding part of my routine rather than just a task. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, patience, and supervision so they feel relaxed while their owner is away. I keep the environment clean, calm, and pet friendly at all times.
“This was our 1st time using Danielle and could not be happier with her. She communicated quickly with us, sending updates and photos of our 2 dogs. Out of concern our poodle not eating (1st time being left alone) she was excellent at being creative to get her to eat and make sure they were healthy. Our great Dane didn't care, she eats no matter what. Haha. The house looked great when we got home and look forward to working with Danielle again. Definitely recommend.”

“Sarah was INCREDIBLE!! Highly recommend! She was very easy to work with, sent lots of updates and photos, took amazing care of our pup, and dealt with all of his quirks without issue! She gave a daily update with walks, eating, highlights, any issues which was a very easy way to see their day in a glance. Our fridge died while she was house sitting and she was very communicative to help diagnose what happened, and even moved our food into bins in the snowy backyard. She truly went above and beyond! She left our house clean and our dog happy and tired (from all his walking and attention).”

Sarah is THE BEST! A true diamond in the "ruff"! Our three doggos absolutely love her. She followed our guidelines to the tee, kept in touch daily with pictures and detailed notes, and left our house exactly as she found it. After three years of average to terrible pet sitter experiences, it was extraordinarily relieving to finally find someone that goes above and beyond to do the job well. I am someone who only gives five star reviews to those who earn it and if I could give more than five stars to Sarah, I would.
