Mona did such a wonderful job with our dog while we were gone. She wrote to us every day and sent pictures twice daily. She is positive, very reliable, professional and fun. We returned to a young dog who was calm, secure and well cared for after the longest stretch she had experienced away from her family ever. That is such a wonderful compliment to Mona's care and caring and we thank her so much.

Thank you Paige! We came from out of town and needed someone to feed and walk our dog while we were away from the camper. Paige meet me at the RV site the day before to find our location and meet us. The following day she showed up on time and entertained out 75lb labradoodle Bentley. She took him for a walk, the dog park, feed him and even cleaned his feet. Paige locked the camper and was on her way. They got along great and we appreciate finding her on Rover. Unfortunately the Gators lost but we will be back next year.

Karina was wonderful! She contacted me a few times to check on things like the heat in the house because it got cold, and if to use the vacuum to clean up kitty litter! Her daily reports and photos definitely helped with my anxiety over leaving my baby alone. Highly recommend Karina.

Richard is great. I was so nervous to leave my cat for a week bc he is elderly and requires a good amount of care. Then I found Richard on here and after the first day knew I could relax bc he was in good hands! He regularly sends updates, report cards, and photos each time he cares for him. He has a great attitude and you can tell he loves what he does. I would definitely recommend him.

Monica is one of, if not, the best caregivers I have ever used for my pets. I have a dog and cat, with the dog being pretty scared of the world, which makes finding the right caregiver a little challenging. Finding someone to watch her always gives me anxiety since I worry about both my dog and the person watching her and the trouble they may face (such as my dog not eating or wanting to go outside since she gets scared of new humans). With Monica, she assured me she would take great care of both animals and upon meeting them, I could tell instantly she would go above and beyond to make sure they were loved and taken care of. I received plenty of check-in texts and photos which made being away a little easier! PLUS - my dog actually went on walks with her, which was the biggest win! Monica was also willing to stay over to keep the animals company, which I absolutely loved and appreciated more than she will ever know. If you want someone who is passionate about animals, look no further than Monica! She is truly the best.

About: I started dog sitting for family & friends after the pandemic was over & everyone started to go on vacations & work trips again. I loved getting to visit their furry friends as well as walk & play with them. Over the past few years I’ve began house sitting for friends of friends & it’s been such a treat to meet all types of four legged friends. Being a student athlete I’m always on the go, back & forth between all sides of town. The gym, campus, & my home. Checking in on/walking/feeding dogs is a welcome break in the monotony of a typical day. I will typically do a let out/walk first thing in the morning, another after classes around 2, & then be home around 6 for the rest of the night. When caring for pets, I make sure to thoroughly read all instructions left by the owners and follow through with them. Pets will always be watched when outside & walked attentively

I was Caitlins manager at Camp Bow Wow she was a great worker, always on time, she also learned our safety protocols quickly, you can tell her love for animals she was a natural and the dogs absolutely loved playing with her. I would hire her in a second if I was still in that line of work. Your animals would be safe with her!

Giao was wonderful! She took such good care of my high anxiety pup, Roscoe, and was very communicative which helped us know that our baby was safe and happy in her care. She was so great with Roscoe from the first time we met with her. Giao is friendly and flexible and I am highly recommending her to everyone I know!

Adam was so great with our dogs! He was super trustworthy and responsible- something we were really looking for as we were going to be out of the country during his visits. He was very communicative with us about the dogs and shared great photos and updates every visit. We really appreciated his consistency and timeliness as well. Overall, we were so thankful for the peace of mind we had while Adam was watching our dogs and will 100% book him again for future trips! Highly recommend!

I have known Kimberly for a long time and have seen her many times around animals, especially dogs. She is kind and loving towards them and having her take care of my dogs on numerous occasions, I found her to be diligent, warm and consistent with our animals. They love her and with no exceptions, our dogs love her and make a big fuss when they see her. She will be responsible and respectful to the owners and their pets alike.
