“Emaculada was really great with our fur babies!! We needed someone last minute & she generously offered to not only take care of my fur babies but also my boyfriend’s. We travel very often and would love to have her take care of them in the future :)”


“Darby provided impeccable service throughout the week of our work trip - prompt arrival, great updates, photos, asked good questions, etc. So happy to have someone so reliable and will definitely ask for her help in future!”


“Samantha did a great job checking in on our cat, Louie. On a previous vacation, he came to a cat with a UTI because the person we hired (not through Rover.com) did not clean his box properly.

About: i’ve had more pets growing up than i could count, not limited to cats and dogs, i’ve also cared for snakes, rats, birds, rabbits, hamsters, etc! i understand not all animals want to be touched, and im perfectly okay with that! caring for animals is something i pride myself in. i have a reactive / anxious dog and know how to divert attention and calmly react to high stress situations. with work i’m on one week and off the next so im home for a week and often go on long walks with my dog, i keep food out for all of my cats and dog at all times, along with a still water bowl and a water fountain bowl, both get cleaned regularly . i have experience with walking all shapes and sizes of dogs, and if i’m watching your pet i have extra crates bowls and and whole spare room if needed. i’m my house all pets are allowed on furniture and i deep clean twice a week, my dog is a trash eater so we also have lids for all trash cans and keep all bathroom doors closed.

“I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”



“Thelma is a nervous dog, Ashliegh did a great job letting Thelma get comfortable with her during the meet and greet. Judging by the photos, Thelma felt quite at ease during the drop in!”
