“Thomas took great care of our dog and sent lots of great pictures! Our dog is usually pretty moody when we leave but we are pretty sure she likes Thomas better than us now :-)”
3. Sierra C.
“Sierra is an absolute gem on Rover! I cannot express enough gratitude for the care she provided for my cat, Lucy! Sierra's passion for animals is very noticeable just through the first interaction she had with my cat. She even takes care of her pets at home, she told me that she has a husky/malamute and two cats she looks after. Her professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for pets sets her apart from others I had tried to work with. With Sierra, I have complete peace of mind knowing that my pet is in the best hands possible. I wholeheartedly recommend Sierra to anyone seeking top-notch pet care services. She truly is a pet whisperer!”
