Mary is reliable. I appreciate the photos and updates. Snoozy likes her a lot and I like the rover updates. I am very particular and get nervous to leave snoozy and Marys care helps me alot. We will definitely use Mary for all of our dog care needs. Thank u!

Great job as always! Our cat Mickey loves the Brendon! This was our second time hiring Brendon. He does a fantastic job. We highly recommend him for your cat sitting needs. He’s our go-to guy.

About: Not only did I grow up around dogs (one of my own and many neighbors’ dogs who I helped sit for), but I am also currently a proud dog mom to five medium-to-large dogs who are my entire life, some of whom I’ve raised from 8 weeks all the way through senior-hood. I have fostered over a dozen other dogs in addition to my own of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I have cared for dogs with both medical and behavioral issues as well. I work from home four days a week with minimal meetings and plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I don’t travel for my job. I do have commitments some evenings after 4pm. I have a fenced yard and very friendly dogs who would love to have a playmate! I also have two spare bedrooms to keep dogs separate if they need their own space or some quiet time. I have plenty of dog-safe brain teasers and puzzles to get their brains working as well. I do triathlons in my spare time and love to go for walks/runs with pups too!

Mary cares for our dog weekly. She is reliable, communicative, and excellent with animals. We trust her with our beloved dog, and I would recommend her to anyone needing animal care.

As usual Abmari did a great job taking care of my cat, she kept the litter area clean, took care of an unexpected accident, and my cat was always happy to see her!

About: In order to help our pets reach their full potential, we first need to take the time to set them up for success. That might mean the mental and physical stimulation that exercise and training can give. Not nearly enough of our pets get the amount of activity they deserve as beloved members of our families, but I am here to help. Whether your animal, whatever the species, needs a walking buddy or just some extra snuggles, you can count on me as someone who grew up around cats, lizards, ferrets, chickens, and giant breed dogs. Currently I have my own Lab who is the love of my life. I can cherish your pets just as much as I do her. She comes with me on all services I provide. I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to meet most of your scheduling needs when given 1+ week notice. My dog accompanies me to any services I provide, which means I can commit to staying for however long you need, on whichever times and days you need. I will gather all relevant information from you prior to the service, so I can try to keep your pet’s routine as familiar as possible. My dog is friendly with all dogs, and for safety’s sake we will arrange a meet up prior to services to ensure that our dogs can co-exist peacefully. They will still never be left unsupervised together.

Miranda is a wonderful cat sitter. She left detailed rover cards and took plenty of pictures. I knew from our first interaction that my Berlioz was in great caring hands. She was great at communicating her questions and concerns and was quick with her responses as well. It seems like my Berlioz enjoyed his time with her each visit. I highly recommend her to any cat parent in need of a professional cat sitter.

From the moment I met Lee I knew that my dogs would be in good hands. He was sending me photos of my dogs every time he went to visit them so I wasn't worried about them at any time. When I returned from my vacation I found my home clean and my dogs well taken care of!! I will definitely hire Lee's services again.

About: Cats and dogs have always been a big part of my life! Their happiness is a huge priority and I enjoy helping them life a happy and save life. I believe our pets are an extension of our family and should be treated as such (or better)!! I have helped countless friends and family with their pets when they needed an extra hand! I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to accommodate helping others out with their pets needs when the owners are not able too. I currently have a good boy (dog) of my own and will not watch additional pets in my home cause we are renovating and do not feel comfortable with an unknown dog in the house.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life. I currently live with three cats and one bunny. I have also had dogs throughout my life. So I welcome everyone! I’m currently working part time at a doggy daycare. So, I will be available weekends and some weekdays! And of course I always try to keep my schedule updated! I understand how frightening it could be for your pet to see a new person coming to your home. I can assure you, I will give them time to adjust and sniff. Then of course I can give them love!

Finn was in great hands with Karina and Jared. They were very professional and paid attention to details of caring for Finn. We arrived back home to a happy Finn- he enjoyed his day while we were away! Thank you both again for taking care of Finn!!
