“We’ve had Mitchel come a couple of times now and he’s awesome. I got off work unexpectedly early the other day and Mitchel was still there. My pup whined at the door for like 10 mins when he left. Loves him. You won’t regret trusting your pets with this polite, punctual, animal loving guy.”

She is capable, reliable, very neat and tidy, and totally trustworthy. I would highly recommend Elizabeth for a worry free vacation, she is communicative and will keep you updated on your pet while you are away and follow your instructions conscientiously. Elizabeth is also easygoing, helpful, and a pleasure to deal with.”

“Scott is amazing. Opie absolutely loves him and has become much more relaxed. I am sure it is because he feels safe with Scott. He is a huge dog but at heart he is a coward. I would recommend Scott to anyone, Opie and I couldn't be happier!”

“This is the third time that Aly has taken care of our dog and we can’t be more happy. We are from out of town and my dog remembers Aly and is excited to see her. He comes back tired from having so much fun. Aly is completely reliable and a fun easy communicator. She even sends pictures proving that Cosmo is enjoying himself. Will use Aly’s services next time for sure!””

8. Blake D.
“To whom it may concern, I am writing to highly recommend my nephew Blake, for any opportunity with Rover, as I believe he would be an excellent fit for working with dogs. Blake has always had a natural and gentle presence, especially around animals. He possesses a calm and kind demeanor, which helps put dogs at ease and allows him to connect with them easily. In addition to his good repport with dogs, Blake is responsible, reliable, and compassionate. He understands the importance of following instructions and maintaining a routine, and he shows up with a positive attitude. He was our dog Millia's favorite visitor.”


9. Nikolay G.
“Nikolay is a dog person. I've watched him interact with quite a few dogs, and I would say that he is conscientious with other peoples dogs, but doesn't overwhelm dogs if trying to win them over.”

I have shadowed dog trainers and am pet first aid certified. I offer pet care services full time! I have full availability Monday- Friday and sometimes availability on weekends as well. I am committed to pet care full time! I take care of your pets like they are my own! I have a fully fenced in yard, with many different toys and enrichment activities.

She goes on hikes and walks multiple times a day, plays, and gives all the pets and snuggles. Everytime my pups see her they get so excited! Also thanks to her dedication of positive reinforcement training and calm demeanour, her time with my dogs has made a big difference on their behaviour at home too which has been awesome!!!! If you're looking for someone who will love and care for your pets like family, look no further she is literally the best 10/10!”
