“Mollie is truly an animal lover, and it shows in every interaction. She is kind, attentive, and goes above and beyond to make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Her passion for caring for animals goes beyond just basic needs—so goes the extra mile to ensure every pet she care for is happy, healthy, and loved. Whether it's providing attentive daily care, advocating for better treatment of animals, or simply showering pets with affection, Mollie always puts her heart into what she does. Her deep understanding of animals, combined with their kindness and patience, makes her a truly special caretaker. I highly recommend [Caretaker’s Name] to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated pet caretaker. My furry friend was happy and relaxed when I returned, which says it all! Thank you for your amazing service!”

“I had to find a last minute dog walker for Shabazz and Larisa responded promptly and accordingly. She was very nice and professional and took interest into Shabazz's routine as to try to carry on his typical walk schedule.She went above and beyond by suggesting she could check on him during the day as I was away on my work trip. I would definitely request Larisa again to walk Shabazz and most likely will inquire about overnight boarding since she gave vibes of a person who would take great care of your pet. Thanks Larisa!”

About: I have been pet sitting for family friends and coworkers for many years! I have experience with pets of all ages, special needs, requiring medication, and reactive pets.

I currently work full time (4 days a week); and am available on my days off or for evening visits on the days I work !

17. Shay H.
“Shay was very reliable - she walked my dog Beasely at 9 am and 4 pm for 6 days in a row. She sent me photos everytime she walked him. most important. Shay helped me when I had continuing problems with Rover.com's software, she helped me get the correct dog walking scheduled I needed, and to get rid of Rover.com's Repeat Weekly command. I was really disappointed that Rover.com does not have a CANCELLATION BUTTON TO remove schedules I wanted removed. -Pat G.”

“Sadie is a phenomenal pet caregiver for my cat. He usually gets depressed or doesn’t eat while I’m away and he was perfectly happy when I arrived back. She pulled out all the stops to ensure he got his play time, plenty of pets, treats, and more. She has taken care of him over 5 times now, and I wouldn’t trust anyone more than her! Highly recommend!”
