“Janae was attentive and helpful. She sees nuances of our sister dogs and their individual needs.”


2. Kathryn K.
“Kathryn was our house/dog sitter this July. We have a 12 year old lab mix and Kathryn was kind enough to drive all the way out to Sandy to meet Dakota a week before we left. After seeing Kathryn interact with Dakota I knew she (our dog) would be spoiled and in great hands! She checked in with us several times while we were gone, and I never had to worry. Kathryn also watered our yard and indoor plants, changed our linens for us, and left the house very clean! I have since recommended her to several friends and will hire her again the next time we are out of town. The only hesitation I had of writing this review was that she would book up when I needed her!”

About: I will make sure your dog is well taken care of, feed them, make sure they have water and I can bath your dog if you want and will love on them. I will make sure to take your dog out for bathroom breaks and make sure they get out for playtime. I will walk and run with your dog and also relax with them when they have exerted a lot of energy and need a nap. I am really good with dogs and taking care of them. Your dog will be in good hands with me. I have watched over a lot of dogs for neighbor's and friends who went out of town. I will provide the best care for your dog and treat them as if they were my own. I am currently working part time in the early morning, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pet, play with them and walk them. I currently do not have any pets in my home, however I frequently go over to my parents house and take care of the dog when needed. They have a fenced yard and I kennel him when needed.


5. Catherine K.
About: I have been blessed with dogs, cats and fur babies alike my entire life. I understand the importance of patience, respect and proper care of our loved ones. I will take good care of their needs. 🐾💕 I am a studying to become a LMT and have plenty of time for drop in visits and/or walks each day. I am available Mondays and Wednesdays after 1pm and all day Tuesdays and Thursdays. I would love to meet with you and your fur baby to see if we are a good fit! I can drop in and let your fur baby out for potty needs and stretching/exercise. I can also provide feeding (food provided by owner) and water. I can also walk dogs or cats. Leashes must be provided by owners. Lots of love and attention will be showered on all fur babies!

“Here's a testimonial you can use for Erika’s Rover profile: --- I highly recommend Erika as a dog walker and pet sitter! She has a deep love for all animals and an incredible level of experience, from helping whelp puppies and caring for them in their first moments of life to training dogs to sit, lay down, and even roll over. Erika is not only skilled but also responsible and conscientious, ensuring that every pet she cares for is safe, happy, and well-loved. Whether you need someone to take your dog for a walk or provide attentive care while you're away, Erika is the perfect choice!”

“Olivia was great. My cat was in very good hands. I had to book last minute for a family emergency and she was willing to work with me in a short period of time. She kept me updated and was great about paying loving attention to my pet. Next time I leave town, I will definitely try to book her again.”


11. Kathleen T.
About: I grew up caring for animals, dogs, cats, horses, fish, cows, chickens, and a goat, having pets most of my life. My background is in healthcare while in the military. I have been my father's caregiver which allowed me to help foster puppy litters to adult dogs and care for a pack of 8 dogs-4 of which are mine while caring for him. I can now enjoy caring for other's fur babies giving them love and support. I am interested in always learning about animal behavior and all aspects of their care. I have been my father's caregiver but sadly he passed at the age of 94 and would enjoy caring for other's fur babies giving them love and support. I have an open schedule that is veryflexible. I am blessed to have my son's help caring for our dogs, allowing me to provide in-home and overnight care if needed. The number one goal is to adapt personalized routines for your pets so they are happy and healthy.

17. Samantha M.
About: I have had animals since I was born. We’ve had bunnies, cats, and dogs. I have been personally raising my eight year-old cat since he was born, even bottlefeeding him for a bit before he got strong enough. I have pet sit for many other families, and many other animals. I love seeing every single one of their cute faces! I do work a full-time job, although we are in the off-season so my availability is increased. I am usually off by 4 PM and can stay at pets houses to make sure they are kept company. I start work around 8 AM so I’ll also have time to check on them in the morning. I will follow every instruction you give me on how you wish for me to take care of your animal and your home. If you choose to interest me with your pet, I will be sure to do everything I can to make sure they are happy and healthy till you get back.
