“Malcomn is simply the best and we trust him over everyone. He takes the absolute best care of our pets and home. Our dog has some health issues and he was so attentive to her and communicative with us, we always know that when he’s there that they’re in the best care. He’s our go to guy every time. Couldn’t recommend more!”

“Coleen was caring, professional, and fast to respond. Our dogs absolutely adore her and were sad to see her leave. She easily managed 3 large dogs without issue. We had Coleen in-house sit them overnight for our big day and can't recommend her enough!”

“Sarma was so responsive and thorough in reading and following my detailed instructions. This was my first time having a Rover sitter stay at my place to pet sit while I was away for the weekend and Sarma brought me so much peace of mind. She sent daily photos and left detailed notes about how the dogs and cat did throughout the day. My Australian cattle dog is a force to be reckoned with but Sarma kept her busy and managed walking her (along with my other little pup) with ease. I’m so happy to have met her and feel so grateful knowing that I can book her for services in the future! Managing 3 animals is not easy but she can definitely handle the challenge!!”

“Destiny was just the kindest and most easy going person! I have a 6 month old puppy which can be a handful but I came back to a clearly well loved pup. Most importantly rues training hadn’t slipped while in her care. Also Destiny went above and beyond keeping my house tidy and clean while here.”

“Ruby did a fantastic job taking care of our pets and our home!! We came home to three very happy nuggets. I think she brushed them while we were away, since our (very large) dog’s coat is super shiny - and she even took out the trash before leaving! We had to extend our trip by 2 days for a family emergency, and she was incredibly flexible and was able to provide care for the additional 2 days. Ruby definitely went above & beyond, and we’d love to have her sit for our dog & 2 cats again any time!”

“Wanted to take the time to leave a review for Haylee because she did an amazing job taking care of our 11 year old doggie Tuna. She was very sweet and caring. She did overnight sitting at our house and was very flexible to our needs. She did an amazing job and took great care of our home while we were away. She listened very closely to our requests for Tuna’s health and she followed our instructions very carefully. Tuna has specific feeding schedule and supplement regimen and Haylee made sure to follow it very closely. She is very good giving updates and she sent the most amazing pictures of Tuna. She kept us updated throughout our trip making us feel totally confident that Tuna was in great hands. Haylee is a very sweet girl and very responsible. We will definitely be booking with her again. Tuna looked very happy and well taken care of. Thanks again Haylee !!!!!!!!!”

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs—big, small, energetic, friendly, and even those who need a little extra patience and attention. Every dog is different, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever makes them feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I’m even more experienced with cats, having grown up around them my entire life! I love getting to know each cat’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I also have experience administering insulin shots to cats and am comfortable following specific care routines and instructions. I currently have almost complete availability, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I'm very flexible. Reach out to me for scheduling. I'm used to many varying sets of rules from house to house when it comes to pets. Let me know where they should and shouldn't be and I'll make sure to keep to that!

Nancy took excellent care of my senior dog! She is very thorough. She made sure she knew all the details of his routine and how best to care for him. She is great at communicating too. She sent pictures while I was away which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Nancy!

Sarah was absolutely wonderful. This was my first time leaving my two cats with a sitter, and Sarah stayed at my apartment for about two weeks. She took excellent care of my babies, and when I came home, she left the place freshly cleaned. She sent updates and pictures of the kitties while I was gone, and I can tell my girls were very well looked after. I would happily have Sarah watch them anytime.

This is the second time we’ve used Lidiana to care for our 17-year old pup: the first time was for a period of over two weeks when my husband and I were on vacation and the last time was just for one night. She is reliable, caring, and communicative. We plan on using her for as long as she’s available and willing!

Here is the final revised version connecting the medicine and weather sensitivity to the same dog: > Mason was an absolute star watching our two dogs for eight days! Since this was our first time working with him, he came over beforehand for a meet and greet to introduce himself and get to know the dogs, which immediately put us at ease. Communication throughout our trip was fantastic—he sent just the right amount of photos, videos, and check-ins to give us complete peace of mind without overwhelming us. He seamlessly handled giving medicine to our dog who is also very nervous around bad weather, showing so much patience and care by keeping her comfortable and still getting her out on walks despite her fears. When we returned, both dogs were relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. On top of that, he took wonderful care of our home and even watered our outdoor plants. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and would recommend him in a heartbeat!

Maribel was amazing! She was very communicative, great with my pets, and left our home spotless. My dog and both our cats were well taken care of. One of our cats is very shy and typically hides from sitters, however she quickly became comfortable with Maribel. I will definitely be booking with her in the future.

Our dog loves Grace! She is reliable, always keeps us updated with lots of pictures, and genuinely cares about our dog. He has some quirks that she patiently navigates and gives us peace of mind while we’re away. She did a fantastic job house sitting and we feel so lucky to have her help taking care of our dog!

Alicia came to stay with our dog over the weekend and she was so wonderful! We were nervous to leave him behind for the first time, but Alicia was the perfect person to calm our fears and take care of him! She is truly an animal person - I could tell by how easily she connected with our dog from the moment she walked in. She sent daily check ins, photos and updates during the weekend as well! Will definitely be rebooking. Thank you again Alicia you’re the best!!
