“I cannot say enough good things about Eric! He came over to meet my stranger-danger pup a few days before I went out of town and has above and beyond to make sure my dog is safe,comfortable and well cared for while I’m gone! The updates I’ve gotten throughout my trip have reassured me that they are having a great time while I travel. I’ll definitely be having him pet sit again!”
“Danielle was incredible! Our Max has separation anxiety and can be a challenge. Danielle used her years of experience to recommend the best situation for all of us as we needed to go out of town for a night. She sent us pictures and updates several times during our time away. When we got home Max was so happy and you could tell he had been well taken care of. As pet owners, we are over the moon. Also, before Danielle, we did not feel comfortable with putting Max in boarding and it limited our ability to travel. We have a new found freedom and will definitely use Danielle again. She is highly recommended!”
“Opal always does a great job watching my dogs. They were snuggling up with her before I even left the house. She is also great at sending updates like pictures and she was respectful of my house and didn't leave a mess or anything!”
“Grace stayed overnight with my 3 month old puppy. She spent the whole night with him, kept up with his feeding and potty schedule and my aparment was exactly how I left it when I got back. I would definitely recommend her to anyone with a pet they love!”
“Kathryn was excellent, she was attentive and communicative throughout the time she was watching Ares. She sent consistent updates with pictures and made us feel great about trusting her with our fur baby and home. She will definitely be our go to dog sitter/walker for any future needs! Great energy and awesome personality took incredible care of our big baby.”
About: As a passionate pet lover, I can assure you that your pets are in great hands. If your pets appreciate special love and attention then you have reached the right person. I have grown up with pets and have had a pet throughout most of my life, so pet care comes naturally. I have cared for puppies to senior dogs and I love them all. If your pet requires walks and playtime I am more than happy to offer that and more. I have an incredible passion for pets so love and care will be what they will receive. I retired a few months ago, so I am available for pet care 7 days a week for as many daily visits as would be needed. Overnight stays at your home or mine can be an option. Prior to my retirement, I was able to pet sit part-time. Now I am available and excited to be able to help more people with their pet care needs on a full-time basis. In your home, your pet will have the same loving care that you give them. But beware, they may get a little extra spoiled under my care.
“This was our first time using Rover and we had the most wonderful experience with Ali as our sitter! She stayed in our house with our dogs while we were out of state. She was so good with the boys and even went out of her way to come and meet them the day before we left. She sent us pictures and updates and our dogs clearly loved her.
