1. Destiny W.
“Destiny was excellent. I have been using the same rover person for the last few years but she moved away so I had to find a new one. Sirius can be a bit of a pain with new people, but he took to her immediately. She was great at keeping us informed and sent some nice pics to put us at ease. Excellent job in every way and will definitely be reaching out to her next time we head out of town.”

Between her fast responses, her fun photo updates and her big heart (I got nervous while I was away because our internet cut off and she was there first thing the next morning to check on it) having her as our cat sitter was a 10/10 experience and I will 100% use her in the future if needed!

20. Brianna N.
About: I’ve had animals of my own since I was 9 years old. I’m a huge animal lover, and I was an in-home nanny responsible for children and pets with housecleaning duties. I also was a dog trainer for almost 2 years to a Beagle puppy; I was responsible for crate training, potty breaks, building and maintaining a Feeding schedule, as well as behavior training and care after neuter procedure. I currently have a 6 year old chihuahua of my own, whom I’ve trained myself and is very well behaved. He is not aggressive, towards other dogs, cats, or humans. He loves playing with other animals! I currently am only in college so I have a very available schedule! There are certain weekends where I will be unavailable- due to vacations and pre-planned family events. I have over an acre of fenced in yard, as well as a willingness to walk or travel with your pup to a dog park for their daily exercise as I do my own pups. My pups are super friendly and eager to make new puppy friends! I am also more than willing to be available for potty breaks and companionship such as play time and cuddles and plenty of petting to ensure they are comfortable and happy!
