Emma stayed with my cat Patrick for a week while I was in another state for work. Patrick needs some special attention and takes daily medication. She did a great job making sure he was taking care of and comfortable! Additionally, she communicated with me well and made sure to send me some pictures every day!

Kelsey was wonderful and took such great care of my baby boy. I was gone for quite some time and she made sure I had pictures, videos, and updates daily! She also helped water my flowers and took my trash out on trash day which was above and beyond what I asked! I will definitely request Kelsey again!

I’m so thankful for Erika! I was nervous about leaving our 14 year old cocker spaniel Sophie for a week long trip. Erika was conscientious, communicative, flexible, professional, kind, trustworthy, mature, and responsible! She really loves animals. I can’t recommend her highly enough. When we returned home, Sophie was peaceful and content, calm and happy. Thank you, Erika, for making our vacation enjoyable by taking such good care of Sophie and our home.

Karrie was fantastic! She stayed in our home, which helped our dogs feel comfortable and relaxed right away. She kept them on their usual routine, so we never had to worry while we were away. She was also a wonderful house guest and even washed dishes and bedding before she left. We couldn't have asked for better care and will definitely be booking with her again!

Paola was so attentive to our beloved Kona. She went above and beyond day after day, very consistent with check-in and photos, so we could see our dog as she even offered to clean up around the house a little bit and do anything that needed done while we were away of all of the rovers, I’ve tried this has without a doubt been our best experience. Quit looking for other rovers just go ahead and book Paola with confidence.

Laurie was great! We needed a last minute sitter and Laurie jumped in to help out. She took great care of our pups and house. You could tell in the pics that they were relaxed and having fun. We have 3 dogs, which can be a lot. One is highly anxious but warmed up to Laurie the first day. She have very thoughtful and excellent questions about the dogs and housebefore we left and as needed during her stay. I couldn't have been happier and more comfortable. We will definitely be asking Laurie to sit for us again!

Excellent sitter for my 8 year old and 2 1 year old Rottweiler puppies. Mya is a loving and compassionate person. She followed my special instructions to the tee and was especially great with my youngest puppy with epilepsy as one of the 7 dogs in her own household also has epilepsy. I couldn't have asked for a better person than Mya for my last minute booking while I had surgery. Will definitely use her repeatedly! Highly recommend.

Evan is an absolute cat whisperer. We left town for two weeks, and normally on our vacations one of our two cats is so upset that he won’t even come out of the basement. He doesn’t generally take to new people, either. By the end of the trip, both of our cats were cuddling Evan like old friends. Booking him for our vacation gave me so much peace of mind. Thank you so much, Evan!!!

Jayden is a wonderful sitter. For the first time ever, our small dog squeezed through our back gate and took off. We were thousands of miles away and Jayden kept her calm and assured us she would find her. Within 30 minutes our dog was found. Jayden also had to deal with some difficult issues with our special needs dog, and for that we are deeply appreciative.
