Kayla did a superb job taking care of Starfire (Chocolate Lab) and Sophia (Golden Doodle)!!!! I highly recommend her. My dogs loved being around her and she gave them lots of love and attention. I will definitely use Kayla again. Sincerely, Bill.

Kayley is amazing! She took such good care of my pups even though they’re a little bit on the needier side. She sent great updates and I felt so comfortable leaving my pups in her care!

Katherine was completely reliable and sweet with our dog! It was our first time leaving her with a sitter and she eased all our concerns. She had all her bathroom breaks, playtime with her favorite toys and plenty of snuggles. We definitely will use Katherine again for any future trips!

Kristina was a great communicator throughout the booking process and the drop in visit for my pup. She was on time for the meet and greet and the drop in visit. I received a thorough update and lots of pictures which is so nice when you’re counting on someone else to care for you pet. I would recommend her to anyone and look forward to booking her again!!

Gabby was absolutely fantastic, I needed a sitter last minute for my anxious pup and she was very responsive and kept me updated with pictures and sweet notes the whole time! Gabby will 100% be my first choice for a sitter in the future, such a great experience!

Wow! Can't say enough good thinks about Lila. We were in a bind as our pet coverage plans fell through at the last minute. Lila's quick response and communication put our trip back on track. She was prompt to squeeze in a meet & greet, which went great as she made good effort to connect with our four-legged family member. Scheduled her for several check-ins over couple days while we were gone. She was more than generous with her time and efforts to engage with my dog. We loved getting the updates, pics and videos with the Rover app. Lila's updates were informative and put our minds at ease. We will definitely be using her again and strongly encourage others to consider her for your needs.

Julia did a wonderful job taking care of Rummo while we were out of town for a few nights. She took the time to come meet him prior to our trip and had no trouble following our care instructions. She sent plenty of pictures while we were away and even spent extra time with him after their walks. I highly recommend Julia if you are in need of a reliable individual to take care of your pets. Thank you Julia!

About: Hi there! I have loved animals since I was very little, I grew up around pets. I have experience in animal shelters, as well as some grooming from personal experiences with my own pets. On dog walks I can jog/run with your pet to get them in some good exercise, I love running and staying fit as well as keeping pets nice and healthy. I work from home three days a week with a flexible schedule, as well as usually being home on the weekends. Plenty of different availability I go above and beyond for my pets as well as for my clientele. I pay attention to detail, I have a good sense of my surroundings

Erian is great with pets but she is especially the most responsible with our four legged friends and will take the bestest of care of your family. Erian has a dog herself named pip and takes such good care of him, you can almost see the jealousy on the other dogs faces when they pass by. Erian is an amazing, trust worthy, and very intelligent pet caregiver and you’d be very happy with her services.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all of my life and have also been trained how to handle big dogs with high prey drives. I’m patient and loving to all critters and enjoy making pet-owners feel reassured about their beloved fur family. I also have experience with horses and managing multiple animals. I’m respectful of your home and privacy. I also love getting clear communication about your pets’s needs, preferences and quirks. I want to ensure your comfort and theirs. I’m a pet owner myself and am currently taking care of a beloved senior dog who is my best friend and a mischievous and hilarious cat. I understand how important it is to be careful and precise with pets who have various medical and health needs. I’m currently working during the day remotely and cannot do mid-day visits on MWF. I have availability in the mornings, weekends, and some evenings. I’ll have more flexibility starting January. I will make sure your pet and your home is secure, safe, and comfortable. I’m also happy to water plants or do other light tasks if needed. (i.e. turning lights on/off picking up mail etc…)
