Kade did a wonderful job with our four cats and rabbit. There were a lot of specific instructions that Kade had no problem following. I received pictures and updates of what was completed during every check in. I would definitely trust them again to care for our animals. Grateful for a completely stress free time away from home.

First time using Rover, so we were quite nervous. But we really lucked out! We love Kayley!!! She is indeed a fairy dogmother! We will definitely love to have her come again. Sailor fell in love, and she was definitely in good hands with Kayley. ❤️

Aubrey always goes above and beyond. She is by far the best sitter I’ve ever had. My cat absolutely adores her (and he’s picky about strangers) and I feel so lucky whenever she sits for him.

Julia would be an excellent pet caregiver, she has always been loving to animals but most importantly dogs, she has two dogs name Cooper and Rigsby who she will always go above and beyond for. Julia for a fact would take care, show attention, and make any animal feel loved unconditionally, she will also treat any animal as if it were her own.

Dillon is great! She’s taken our energetic German Shepard, cattle dog mix 2 year old pup on countless walks. Our pup can sometimes be a tad reactive around strangers and she handles it like a pro. On top of that, it’s clear that our pup absolutely adores her. Dillon plays so well with our dog inside with tug of war etc and outside with fetch. It’s honestly really cute seeing them play. Dillon has also stayed with our dog for a week while we were out of town, totally taking care of the dog and sleeping over. I am 100% always confident the pup is well taken care of anytime she’s with Dillon. Dillon clearly loves dogs and is also super responsible. I can’t recommend her enough!

Rachel LOVES her cat! More than anything. She loves playing with animals and we’ve had dogs growing up so she knows how to take care of them well. I think she’s going to be a great dog walker and she will like this job a lot.

Chloe was absolutely the sweetest! I had to book her last minute since my previously booked sitter became sick, and she was right at my doorstep the day I needed her. Chloe did a great job looking after my cat despite my cat being so timid around strangers. I’m truly grateful!

I can always count on Giselle to take care of my English Bulldog, Chunk, while I am out of town. Giselle’s diligence, along with many other traits ensure that Chunk will be in good hands while I am away. In addition to this, Giselle is also a great communicator so I always know how how everything is going back at home.

Twice now, I have had last minute situations that left me in a bind for dog care. Emmalee was fast, responsive, and available immediately upon request. Emmalee went above and beyond when taking care of my girl. I was extremely hesitant to leave her for a few days, but Emmalee came by for over an hour multiple times a day for multiple days in a row and didn’t just feed and walk my pup, but took her to our local dog park and played games with her inside when the weather was bad. While I was away most recently, there was an emergency situation at my apartment building. Emmalee kept me updated and informed in a timely manner while I was unable to be home, and offered extra help if needed. I always felt that my girl was in safe, competent, caring hands. I will definitely be asking Emmalee exclusively for dog sitting/walking/drop-ins in the future, as I have never had a better experience for my crazy, energetic lab than we have had with her. We can’t recommend her enough! Definitely dog-approved 😊

Julia did a wonderful job taking care of Rummo while we were out of town for a few nights. She took the time to come meet him prior to our trip and had no trouble following our care instructions. She sent plenty of pictures while we were away and even spent extra time with him after their walks. I highly recommend Julia if you are in need of a reliable individual to take care of your pets. Thank you Julia!

Gabby has been great for drop in visits/walks for our high energy pup! She has been flexible and responsive when I have needed to make changes to scheduling. Gabby asked thorough questions during our first meeting and has given our guy the attention he needs! We will continue using Gabby for weekly visits.
