“We love Kayla! Our St Bernard-border collie mix Duncan is extremely nervous around new people, and when a 90 pound dog is barking at you, it can be a lot to handle. But Kayla handled him with calm and patience until he warmed up to her. She has always been available when we need her and happy to help out short notice. I am really glad that we found her to take care of our nervous guy when we are out of town!”
“It was again so reassuring to know Alicia would visit our cat, give him some attention, clean water and food, and that our pet feels comfortable enough with her that she can send us a few pix while we were gone. Highly recommend!!”
“Carly did an absolute amazing job taking care of our Koda! She did so good with him & he just adores her. She kindly came a day before we needed her services to come & introduce herself which made me feel way more comfortable with her coming by while we were away. She even updated us when she was headed over, how he was doing and took him for a walk & let us know everything was great with him before leaving! I will definitely be requesting her help again! ◡̈”
About: I have had pets and been around dogs/cats my whole life. I have taken care of my parents dogs and freinds critters in the past. I pay attention to detail and will treat your critter as if they were my own or if they belonged to a family member. I have a full time job from 8am-4pm and I am open on weekends. Dog walking is my most flexible service, but I will make time to check on your critters, and depending on the weekend, I can stay with them. I would care for a pet as an extension of any pet I have ever had. Whether thats keeping them fed, building trust, giving the attention they need, or keeping them safe
“Kayla was fantastic! She took great care of our two cats during our extended vacation and gave us total peace of mind. She was communicative, reliable, and kept us updated with messages and photos, which we really appreciated. It was clear our cats were happy and well cared for, and we came home to everything in great shape. Highly recommend Kayla—we’d absolutely book her again!”
“Tori was absolutely amazing with my dog, Benny! She was so sweet, gentle, and attentive. Benny can be a little picky about who he warms up to, but he adored her right away. Tori was incredibly reliable and kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was on my trip. I could tell she treated Benny like he was her own, and I’m so grateful for the care and love she gave him. I will definitely be using her again!!”
“Sicily was available for a last minute booking and I’m glad she was! She was able to work with my schedule and was super considerate with my finicky cats, even going beyond and cleaning up after them and making sure the outdoor cat had access to his food when he wouldn’t come inside. Very thoughtful and considerate. Will definitely book with Sicily again, highly recommend!”
“She did an excellent job with Maggie. I was nervous as I've never used a pet service before. Ana did a great job, kept me informed, sent me pictures, was prompt and communicating well. I would highly recommend her to watch your pet.”
“Kiley was attentive and kind. We have a kitty who was newly diagnosed with a heart defect and now requires oral pills twice daily. We didn’t know if we would ever be able to take long vacations again, but Kiley gave us the confidence to know our cats were cared for in the same loving and gentle manner we would take care of them. We highly recommend her!”
“Sarah is a sweetheart! I was confident she was going to be able to handle my diabetic dogs needs and she didn’t disappoint. I will definitely hire her again. Boe was very comfortable with her.?”
About: Let's start off with the obvious, it can be nerve racking trusting someone else with your dog, they're your family! I completely understand nerves and hesitations, I experience them myself as I have a puppy- it is hard being away from him. So let me share a little about me and provide you with reassurance that your family member will be in loving and trustworthy hands. I have had the pleasurer of caring for pups and dogs since I was 13 years old. I have had family dogs for all my life, two of which were/are my own. My dog and two of my family dogs have been professionally trained. Now that is for my puppy, I share that so you know the dedication and patience I have- I will implement whatever training you are working on and will respect your desires for your dog. I am currently available Tuesday, Thursday and Friday for walks and drop ins throughout the day, and after 6pm Monday and Wednesday. I am also available for walks and drop ins anytime on Saturdays and Sundays. I will implement whatever training/commands you have established with your dog/pup and do my best to maintain his existing schedule. This will include eating times and walk times- which I will do my best to accommodate.
“Briana was very quick with her responses and responded on a very short notice. Appreciated the care she gave to Calvin. Was very informative and sweet with Calvin. Very pleased with the services I received. Calvin adored her!! Would recommend and book again!!”
About: I hold a veterinary technician certificate, which means I'm trained to recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort that most pet sitters simply aren't equipped to catch. Your pet isn't just in caring hands! They're in knowledgeable ones. I have hands-on experience handling animals of varying temperaments, including those that are anxious, reactive, or require extra patience. I'm comfortable with medication administration, monitoring health changes, and knowing when something warrants a call to a vet. Beyond the technical side, I genuinely love animals and believe every pet deserves individualized attention. I'm observant, calm, and communicative. You'll always know how your pet is doing while you're away! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day (not just a quick check-in between a 9-to-5). I'm not rushing out the door in the morning or squeezing visits into a lunch break. Pet care is a natural and welcome part of my daily routine. I'm available seven days a week with no recurring conflicts, and I'm open to overnight stays at your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their own space. I do all visits and care at your location rather than hosting at mine, which means your pet never has to adjust to an unfamiliar environment. I keep my bookings intentional so every pet gets real, focused attention rather than being one of many. When I'm in your home, my goal is simple: keep things as normal as possible for your pet. I follow your routine closely because familiarity is what keeps animals calm when their people are away. My vet tech training means I'm always watching with an informed eye — changes in appetite, energy, or behavior don't slip past me. If something seems off, I'll tell you straight away. I treat your space with respect and leave it exactly as I found it. For overnights, I'm there to be a calm, steady presence so your pet doesn't have to spend the night alone and anxious.
Wood Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kayla was amazing! Immediately from meet and greet she showed how much she loves animals. We’ve had pet sitters before just come in and do the tasks but Kayla went above and beyond making sure our babies were comfortable while we were gone. I’d highly recommend anyone book her! She will absolutely be our go to next time we leave.
We had an amazing experience with Heaven! She took such great care of our two cats and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. You can tell she truly cares about animals—everything was clean, our cats were happy and relaxed, and communication was excellent throughout. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to care for their pets. Thank you again!
Julia took such good care of my Loki while I was away! I felt relieved knowing that someone so caring took care of my boy while I was dealing with something out of state. She sent me pictures during each drop in and he seemed to really enjoy his time with her. I’ll definitely be looking to book again in the future :)
Esther was awesome! Booked last minute to come visit, walk, and feed Luna while we were away on a short trip. Super dependable, courteous, and friendly. We had zero worries and complete confidence that Luna was in great hands. We highly recommend her and will definitely rebook!
Kayla was an amazing pet sitter for my kitten, Argy! She accepted a last-minute request and even met with us the day before to meet him and go over all the instructions. She did two visits over the weekend, followed everything perfectly, and sent me lots of photos and videos. Argy absolutely loved her — he was always excited to see her, played a lot, and clearly felt comfortable and happy. It made me feel so relieved and happy to see him receiving so much love and attention while I was away. I highly recommend Kayla and would definitely book her again!
We have been using Valerie as our pet sitter for the past three years, and we couldn’t be happier with her care. Every time we are away, we have complete peace of mind knowing our animals are in such loving and capable hands. Valerie is incredibly reliable and consistently goes above and beyond with communication. Her updates and messages always keep us informed and reassured. It’s clear how much she truly cares about the animals she looks after, and we are always so grateful to have her care for ours. We wholeheartedly recommend Valerie to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.
This is the second time we have used Shannon! Shannon continued to come back multiple visits after our dog exhibited territorialness and even scratched her. She adapted and was flexible during the holidays while we were across the country so that his needs could still be met while we were away. We are extremely grateful for her persistence. She even bought him treats herself for christmas!
