We’re so grateful to have found Tiffany to care for Hank while we were away. She’s an excellent communicator, and we truly appreciated the detailed updates and photos she sent throughout our trip. Hank looked happy and well cared for in every picture, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. We will absolutely be booking with Tiffany again and can’t recommend her highly enough!

Melissa has been dropping in to check on my dog twice a week for few weeks now. She’s great at communicating and patient with Bunny (she’s a bit shy of new friends)! I also appreciate that she thinks ahead for holidays to check if I’ll be home during normal days she checks on Bunny. I highly recommend her and I would give 10/5 stars if I could! Thanks Melissa!

Emily is so good with my dogs. One dog wouldn’t come out of the kennel for a couple others but loves Emily :) She helps me out when I’m at work for a long time and it brings so much peace of mind.

Super sweet to help out super last minute as we got stuck 10 hours away. Our poor babies had pooped inside and she picked it all up so we wouldn’t come back to a total mess. She was also amazing with our GSD who can be shy/timid. We will definitely use her again!!

About: I have dog sat and cared for many other dogs and animals before. I will always make sure the animals are well treated for and the house is taken care of. I am very friendly and strive to make sure every experience is friendly. I have two dogs of my own. I am excited to be able to take care of your dogs and make sure they get what they need while you are away from home. Something that sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is that I am very client forward and will work to meet your needs. I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups, I am available for walks and check ins Monday/wednesday/ thursday and house sitting Monday- Sunday! I follow all directions owners leave for me to care for their dog and home.I also help run errands while owners are away, and in warmer months I take care of indoor and outdoor plants

She is amazing with my dog! She went above and beyond and took such great care of my old man! I came home from my trip early and he didn't want her to leave. He wanted to go with her! I received tons of pictures and let me know how he was doing and made me feel so much better about him being at home while I was away. She will definitely be watching him every time I'm out of town

Melissa was outstanding with Luna!! We had a meet-and-greet before our first day to make sure Luna was comfortable. She immediately gravitated to Melissa, who was diligent in asking questions and making sure she would be as prepared as possible. Melissa was a fantastic communicator, quick to respond and provided amazing updates with lots of great pictures! We will absolutely be working with Melissa again and have already requested her for another visit for Luna!

Evey has been absolutely terrific with my little rescue. He is anxious about many things, but Evey spends quality time with him at her daily drop-in and is helping him to come out of his shell. I can tell he is enjoying her visits by how he interacts with me when I arrive back home.

As a pet owner I was looking for a reliable cat sitter to visit my home while I was away. Lori followed all my instructions and even stayed in my home until her 30-minute visit time was over for each drop in visit! I feel comfortable using Rover to find my pet sitter when needed and allowing their pet sitters to come into my home. Lori came and did a meet and greet, asked me questions the same week I was looking for a cat sitter. She was very responsive and observed my home. She offers to bring in any packages left on the porch and my mail if needed while she cared for my cat. Lori sent me pictures of my cat the day she visited. I would use Lori again.
