“I was grateful to have Raquelle come to my home to provide care for my two cats while I took a five day trip away. She was wonderful- attentive, thorough, and genuinely caring that my guys had their needs met ( food, fresh water, treats and litter scooped) and beyond! I appreciated the time she took to take and send photos of my boys ( even though they would often hide) and to provide feedback on each visit. Raquelle even emptied and reset the Litter Genie for me once it became full... and I noticed she had taken my older cat's laser toy out and tried to entice him to come out and play- very nice effort for my shy little man. I was able to get away & relax for a few days, which was absolutely great. I will definitely reach out to Raquelle for my future cat-sitting needs even if I just need to work some overtime and not a trip away. It is so great finding someone trustworthy, caring and competent!”

“Appreciated Dannie’s ability to work around my changing schedule. Dannie was terrific in responding to messages and coming out to meet the crew and go over their routines and various aspects of the house. Dannie was also terrific with the 3 cats and sent me photos and updates. They are indoor outdoor cats and she managed that well plus keeping the bird feeder topped up. Washing was done before I arrived home to a home cooked meal and some lovely flowers. I would highly recommend Dannie. A responsible and caring sitter. You will feel comfortable and confident leaving her to be in charge.”

About: I've had dogs all my life honestly. Big and small. I'm also the friend everyone goes to when they need helpnwith their dog. I have experience with breeds from chihuahuas to huskies. I currently have a very flexible schedule as inonly work part time. I am gone every other weekend tho. I'd be able to accommodate almost any schedule. I'd be following any given instructions for the dogs home and would keep them in the routine. Comfortable happyband loved. Your dog would also have a playmate with mine if friendly for park dates so they wouldn't be inside all day long.

About: Depuis toute petite, je me suis occupé de mon chat et des animaux de mes parents. En étant plus vieille, j'ai eu l'occasion de m'occuper des chiens de ma sœur. J'ai la passion des animaux dans le sang. J'aimerais faire se travail à temps pleins. Lorsque j'aurai réunis assez d'argents, j'aimerais ouvrir mon propre studio de photographie animalière et faire du pet sitting en plus de cela. Ce serait mon plus grand rêve. Vous pouvez avoir une totale confiance envers moi. Je suis là pour vos chers animaux et pour eux seulement. J'ai toujours eu une connexion profonde envers les animaux, comme si j'étais destinés à les côtoyer. Je veux ce qu'il y a de mieux pour toutes les créatures de la planète. Si je pouvais adopter tout les animaux qui existe, je le ferais sans hésiter.

About: Hi fellow pet parents! I have grown up having various pets in my household, from cats to birds to bunnies, etc. I am extremely passionate about animals and am a huge animal lover. I am in the process of studying Veterinary Technician in order for me to be in the vet field and help other animals. I love being in every animals company and will be sure to provide them with lots of attention and care while their parents are gone. I currently have open availability! I also have access to a vehicle, so I will be able to make visits in short notice as well! My home is extremely safe as I have other animals at home as well. They will be given a trustworthy, safe home away from home.

Courtney ( and some help from Ryan too!) were wonderful carers for my two boys while I was away on a 4 day trip. Starting with excellent communication and explaining about the Rover service ( as this was my first experience) I felt comfortable entrusting my cats to their visits and care. I received great visit reports and photos each day. That was such a reassurance, that I was actually able to enjoy my needed getaway without worry or doubts. I will gladly call on Courtney and Ryan for future catsits!
