Thanks & praise to Donna for taking such great care of my rambunctious 2 year old yorkie spaniel mix, Murphy. The pictures she sent showed my contented boy making himself at home.

After a good meet and greet, we used Penny and Evan for our first ever Rover experience with our dog, Libby. She is a sweet, high energy dog. Penny and Evan had a fun week with her. We appreciated the picture updates and knew she was well taken care of throughout the week! Thank you!

Maribel was the best caregiver. Knowledgeable, always present, sweet, active, she is an animal person with plenty of space and experience. She was flexible with us and very responsive when we reached out a couple of times. She also sent us photos of how our little pup was doing, which was important for my mom who was away from her companion for 10 days. We'll certainly reach out to Maribel if she's available before our next trip. Best experience!

About: Lifelong dog owner with foster experience through rescue. Comfortable with different personalities and committed to safe, structured care. Your dog will be treated like family, with lots of supervision, updates, and understanding of individual needs. I work a full time job during the week with availability most days to come home and check on my animals during the day. I have weekends off with some on call days mixed into the schedule. I live on just under an acre without a fence at the moment. I have 3 dogs who are k9 off leash trained, however, any dogs I bring on the property get leash walked around the property for safety for scheduled potty breaks and playtime.

About: Some of my pet experience includes bathing dogs, taking care of dogs for friends, having my own dog who i care for, and loving all animals. I’ve trained my dog to for certain commands which i believe is very helpful. All my friends come to me when they need someone to take care of their fur babies! I am a college student with a work load, however no job. A lot of my days are spent in my home doing homework and pet care fits into my schedule because I can always be there to play and take you pets out. I don’t have very long classes either or in a big stretch so your pay would be cared for almost 24/7 I care for pets as if they were my children haha! In my home, I have bowls, treats, and toys for your pets. In your home, I would respect the space and take care of your pet as if it were my own.

Walt kept our boy, Teddi, for four days. Teddi is a 3 yo intact English Shepherd who has never spent a night away from us. Teddi is a very well behaved and friendly boy but we were a bit anxious how this would go. Walt kept us well informed on how Teddi was doing. Walt gave Teddi great care and a lot of attention. When we returned to pick up Teddi, it was obvious that he and Teddy had bonded very well. We are very pleased with the care that Walt provided and will certainly use him again.

Lawdy was great to work with! She watched our two dogs for almost a full week, after being asked very last minute, and she gave them the love and attention they needed while she had them. We also had our return flight canceled because of the Microsoft crash (July 2024) and we needed to get home, so we rented a car to drive home instead. It took us an unexpected extra day to get home to pick up our fur-babies, and she made it so easy and stress-free. We would definitely recommend Lawdy for your dogs. 💕

We had a last minute thing come up and Deann was ready and willing to take in our cats on such short notice. She took care of them as if they were her own and was amazing to work with! From updates and photos from drop off to pick up. You couldn’t ask for anyone better to care for your kitties! 12/10, will book again!

Definitely recommend Hannah, she is so kind and flexible! I can tell she has a great love for animals and is attentive to their needs. While on a walk, she is on the lookout for other dogs, which I greatly appreciate because of my reactive dog. I feel safe and comfortable with her caring for my precious pup. she sent all of our toys and blanket back in the same condition. Also, she sends updates and pictures!!
