Heather has been wonderful to work with. She’s been prompt, careful and communicative with her visits with my pet. She’s been able to have a warm relationship with my pet despite my cat’s shyness. I absolutely plan on rebooking visits with Heather in the future.

Erica is the absolute best. She is always on time and provides plenty of pictures and feedback about the visit. We travel a lot and have never had any concerns having Erica help take care of our dog. She brings peace of mind that everything is being taken care of and our little girl is happy.

JJ took great care of our cat. This was my first experience with Rover and she made it very pleasant and worry free. My cat seemed to adore her as well and we really appreciated all the photos we got. We will definitely be using her again for our next trip.

Naomi helped us out immensely by taking care of our senior kitty while we were out of town. She distributed meds with no problems and took care of our girl with love and care. I would recommend Naomi to anyone who needs reliable and earnest pet care and will book her again in the future. Thank you Naomi!

Erik is a very caring and responsible pet owner who I’ve seen take so much extra care for animals. Whether it be his own pet or one of his friends or even a stranger’s, Erik takes great care to make sure the animals around him are comfortable and taken care of. I’ve seen him researching best tactics for cat caregiving many times as he thoughtfully implements good practices into his routines with his best friend and kitty Bumi. Bumi was a starving street cat when they met and Erik and him slowly courted each other until a trusting bond was made and Bumi moved in. I hear many stories about training and caring for his past animals who he holds dear to his heart.

I think that Kira would make a really great pet sitter. I was living with her when she got her own puppy, and she always took excellent care of him- making sure she was doing her research, taking him to training classes, buying the right type of food, switching out the food if it didn't seem to be the best for him, taking him to the vet regularly, making sure that he got enough enrichment and exercise. We had two other roommates and it would have been easy for her to ask us to share in some of the responsibility, but I don't remember her ever doing so- she was up for the responsibility and made sure that she had the time to take care of everything. Her puppy grew into a great, well-trained dog. She has also watched our friend's dogs in the past and I'm always impressed with the care she takes. A particular friend's dog has a lot of energy and Kira will go on longer walks and runs than she usually would to make sure he's getting enough exercise and play time. I don't think there's anything Kira couldn't handle.

I don't like leaving my dogs with other people. They both have reactivity issues, and sometimes over-stimulation can cause them to fight with each other. When the dogs and I met Alicyn, I was flustered and it was hard for me to articulate how they are both extremely easy dogs yet they can have very serious fights. Alicyn took it all in stride, and she wasn't worried at all. During the actual drop-in, everything went smoothly! She is an amazing caretaker and the dogs must have understood that, because she said they were perfect and she wants to see them again! I'm super comfortable leaving them with her, whether it's a drop-in or an extended stay.

MaCiyah is the most pet friendly person that I know. She has been compationate about animals her whole life. She currently works at a doggy daycare and she get nothing but praise from her coworkers and dog parents. She is very knowledgeable about different breads and their needs. All the dogs that I have seen her interact with seem to feel loved and enjoys being in her presence.

About: I’ve been a pet owner for over 20 years, ranging from the typical fish, cat, and beloved Murphy, to include even a pet iguana (or two). 🥰 I have a fenced yard where both Murphy and your furry loved one can play and hang out. For overnight stays I have a large adult dog kennel that can accommodate a Mastiff just as comfortably as it can my Min Pin (who believes he’s the size of a Mastiff). 😄 I have an older dog with lots of energy and plays well with other dogs. I am an active person, so neighborhood walking is available for dogs with proper training. I can also provide some minor training reinforcement for puppies or young dogs learning new skills and/or tricks. 🐾 Tips are APPRECIATED!!! 🐾 I work from home! 🙌🏾 So my schedule is flexible and allows me to be able to work with and respond to clients in a timely manner. My home is fenced. All pets remain on the property unless they are taken for walks. I also will let clients know about overlaps in booking wih animals.
