10. Gabriela K.
“Gabby is excellent! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad we found her! When we did our meet and greet I had a lot of questions for her and she was so incredibly patient, kind, and understanding. I loved that she took the time to do a walk together with us to get to know our puppy Jerry. During our walk it was clear to me that she is very knowledgeable about dog behavior and is super attentive. During our initial visit Jerry warmed up to her very quickly and was so excited to see her the next time she came to our house. I will definitely book with Gabby again! 😊”
11. Nancy C.
“It is clear Nancy is a dog lover and we are so thankful that she took time to watch our sweet doodle named Gizmo. Gizmo can be a bit hyper but Nancy (and her sweet boyfriend Andrew) were able to make her feel relaxed and at home. Their rate was very fair for the level of care and comfort they brought to the table and we cannot wait to have them watch her again!! Thank you both!”
12. Amanda P.
“Amanda is wonderful with animals! She always takes such great care of my dogs. She goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs are getting the play, exercise, and mental stimulation they need to help them settle down the rest of the day. She gives them a ton of affection, spending quality time with them, and from the pictures she sends of her visits with them, they are obviously deliriously happy spending time with her! She follows any and all directions to a T, whether it’s regarding meals, meds, exercise, etc. There is no one else I’d rather entrust my furbabies to!”
13. Christopher L.

14. Cara O.

15. Hamed G.
“Hamed is amazing!! He is my go to walker! He’s also dog sat for me and was so amazing with my little guy! I felt so safe and relieved knowing Hamed was taking care of my dog while I was away.

“Kevin is a conscientious and compassionate human who cares deeply about animals. I have witnessed him interacting with various animals for the first time, as a "stranger," and all were able to quickly warm up to him and trust him. I have seens both cats and dogs fall asleep in his lap, including one cat who knew him well and loved to sprawl out with her belly all the way exposed, totally trusting him! In addition to cats and dogs, Kevin has experience caring for tropical fish, coral, hermit crabs, and reptiles; he is a true animal lover and I would trust him with my pets again any day!”
