“Thank you Patti! Our social butterfly, Lisa, came out to greet you everyday and you did manage to get the "unsocial" Bart to peek out a few times. Thank you for making our trip a success in that we did not have to worry about our babies!”
“Thank you again for watching my Ferro. Dolan was great, communication was excellent, and very attentive . Dolan takes the extra mile for your pups need. I highly recommend.”
“This was our first time using this service. With very short notice, we booked Zachary to do drop-in visits for our two cats while we were away. I knew our cats would hide, as they normally do, but Zach made attempts to get them to come out and ensured the litter was cleaned, and water and food were full. Great communication throughout the visits.”
“We love knowing that our pets are in the care of Evelyn when we’re away. She always goes above and beyond and I don’t know what I’d do without her when we’re out of town. Highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Sarah was GREAT! She is very quick to respond, helped us adjust our visits, and took great care of our Rosie! She even helped trouble shoot our auto feeder. I highly recommend her.”
“Pam was incredible. She was quick to respond and incredibly reliable. The communication was on point and my pups loved her. Will book again.”
“Thanks for getting Chloe to come out of hiding! Great sitter. Thanks.”
“Amanda was so great with our two cats! She was great (and a trooper!) with cleaning their litter boxes, refreshing their water bowls, and was so kind to also bring in our mail. She was always quick to respond to any requests or questions I had and was so good with our little ones. Having her come out to meet the cats beforehand was also very nice. I highly recommend Amanda if you need her to check in on your cat(s) while you're away.”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful to my fur babies. I didn't have to worry for even a moment while they were in her capable hands, and she got excellent pictures of all of them that really captured their personalities. She even went above and beyond and cleaned their water dishes, which I so appreciated because I know they make a mess of them. Thank you so much, Emily, I will definitely be hiring you again!”

“Great job!”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover who will care about and adore your pets as if they are my own. I have lived with dogs and cats, plus the occasional fish, bird, or Guinea pig, since I was born, so I’ve been taking care of them since I was a small child. Family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets and keep them safe, as well as to provide oral medications and keep skittish, anxious, or previously traumatized pets calm during storms, fireworks, or separation anxiety. My other job is massage therapy, which I do in-home on a variable schedule, so I am very flexible and often available for overnights as well as shorter visits. I have a great deal of experience house-sitting and caring for the pets of the house while doing so. Other than needing to keep the space fragrance-free, I will be happy to take care of your home and pets as close to exactly how you would as I can. I have a small SUV, so I can take dogs to parks if desired, but even if it’s not, I will be delighted to walk them around your neighborhood or play with them in your yard.
“Abby did such a wonderful job the first time I used Rover, that there was no question about using her services again. She made me feel at ease with leaving the care of my fur baby to in her capable hands. Thank you Abby!! <3”
“My cats and I could not be happier. I was able to take a guilt free vacation and the cats avoided having to go to a kennel. I will definitely rebook Debbie next time I go away.”
