“Wade is very interested in learning about the training techniques my dogs are familiar with. He followed behavior management measures like distance and reward based training to help my somewhat difficult dog remain calm. He showed dedication to his charges by taking the dogs out in the pouring rain without hesitation. The dogs are used to the rain.”
“Karen did a great job of making sure my shy cat felt comfortable, plus putting me at ease with leaving my baby in someone else's care! Karen's pictures and updates let me know where my cat was spending time, her mood, and behavior, all while remaining concise and playful. Karen clearly an animal lover, and she's willing to be flexible and work with you to make sure you and your pet(s) are happy.”
“Allie provides excellent care and attention to our cat during her visits. She provides expert documentation via the report cards, which gives me much peace of mind. I book with Allie time after time for while we are away. I know my very particular (11 year old) Siamese is in expert hands.”
“Gretchen did an amazing job checking in on our cats while we were out of town! We really appreciated the photos she sent and how well she took care of our kitties. I would absolutely book her again when we go out of town and would recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter!”
“Carol sent me a bunch of pictures while she was stopping by to visit my kitties which was super appreciated. She followed all the instructions I left for her, and let me know when she was coming and going. Thank you, Carol!”
“Kristie watched my dog for 10 days and was very sweet with her. My dog was very upset about me being away and Kristie sat with her and kept her company and pet her everyday.”
“Clarissa was great! Our Rottie, Reyna, loved her and even ate well, which she doesn’t always do when change/new people are around. She was very accommodating with time and schedule. Highly recommend!!”
About: Rover: Hello, my name is Ray! I was raised surrounded by dogs, cats, guinea pigs, bunnies and even ducks. I just love spending time with all types of animals. I learned how to care for all of them since I was a child. As my passion for animals became well known to my friends, I was called to look after a friend's cat several times. I currently have a cat, that I care for as my own child, with so much love and attention. My goal is to be a strong support for pet owners to keep their fur baby's routine and happy and healthy. I'm currently studying at my own pace and have a pretty flexible schedule to take care of your pets. I'm even more free in the afternoons. I'm living in an apartment with my cat, so at the moment I can only manage drop-in visits and walking dogs. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and ages.
“She made three visits a day to our house for our dog and cat. They loved her, and she did everything perfectly including giving our dog plenty of walks and giving her her medicine. We will definitely be asking her to come watch our pets again in the future!”
“Lexi is thorough and was great with Bruce who is an elder - 16 year old Vizla/Shepherd mix. I appreciated her timeliness. Bruce was comfortable with her and wasn’t anxious in any way when I returned home. I will definitely try to use Lexi again! Thank you!”
“Terese has been absolutely great to my mini labradoodle! Provided updates and photos during each drop in. There were some days where we had to ask Terese to change timing or days and she was able to make it work! Don't hesitate to book her!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 11 years old. I am comfortable with bigger dogs, overactive dogs, stubborn dogs, & more. Let me meet your pet and we can go from there! I can walk dogs most Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I work a 9-5 but can head out for my lunch break on Fridays and walk your pup. I am all about positive reinforcement and using a firm but gentle tone. I would love to learn what training if any your dog has so I can keep up those good habits!
