3. Carolina & Melissa L.

“Carolina did an absolutely amazing job watching our dog for the weekend. She sent frequent updates on our dog with pictures. She gave us so much peace of mind and we will 100% be return customers. She played with our dog all the time and made sure she felt extra loved! She was super professional and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!”




4. Kelly B.

“Very reliable and great dog walker. Would recommend 100%! Will definitely use her service in the future.”


5. Liliana D.
“Liliana is fantastic. She loves my dog like she's her own. She is attentive and pays attention to and meets my dogs needs. She's comfortable walking her and playing with her. My dog loves her and gets excited to see her. I trust her completely with my dog.”


6. Sidney A.

“Sidney was absolutely amazing!! It was our first time using Rover and she put us at ease the moment we met for a little meet-and-greet with our crew. She sent videos and pictures everyday which we absolutely loved. We had two dogs and a cat, all with their own special quirks, and Sidney was so great with all three. Our vacation was stress-free knowing she was there and she left the house in perfect order for when we returned. We can’t recommend her enough (in fact, we bragged about her to the family our entire trip 😂) and will absolutely be booking her again.”


7. Arianna H.
“Arianna takes great care of both my cats and my dogs. She is receptive and I can tell she really cares for my pets. She is easy to work with and has professionalism someone of her background would suggest. If your in need for a pet sitter I highly recommend her.”


8. Jeanette V.
“I can’t recommend my mom enough as a dog sitter. She has a natural way with animals—kind, gentle, and incredibly attentive. I’ve grown up with pets my entire life because of her, and she’s the one who taught me how to care for them with love, patience, and respect. Whether it was dogs, cats, or even the occasional rescue, she made sure every animal in our home was not only cared for but truly loved. She’s also one of the cleanest and most organized people I know, which makes a big difference when someone is trusting you with their home and their pets. She pays attention to every detail—making sure dogs are fed on time, walked regularly, and given plenty of affection and playtime. She treats every pet like they’re part of the family, because to her, they are. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and experienced to care for your dog, my mom is the perfect choice. Your pup will be in the best hands.”

About: Hi there 🫶🏼 my name is Gennacy! About myself ~ I am a HUGE animal lover some may even call me a animal princess 👑 I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid for my family and friends so I'm very familiar in the animal world. I’m a Certified VA and just want to help. I don’t just take care of dogs and cats I also care for exotic animals too 😉💗 I have a lot of time on my hands for my furry friends 🤗. I’m a student in College so I am currently free weekly from anytime after 12pm, and weekends available anytime. I have a fenced backyard with a security system. Decent size backyard with lots of toys and unlimited water, a friendly puppy to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate if needed..

“Julie did an amazing job of pet and house sitting. I highly recommend her and plan to use her a few more times this summer if she's available. She is an excellent communicator and sent many photos of my pets. They always looked happy in the photos. She has her own dogs and cats and it is obvious that she loves animals! I never worried about my pets while I was away because I knew she was taking good care of them.”


14. Shannon S.

“We recently entrusted our dogs, Amber and Bella, to Shannon for two days, and we couldn't be happier with her service! As this was our first time leaving our pups, we were understandably nervous. However, Shannon eased our worries by being punctual and highly communicative throughout our time away. She sent us adorable pictures of Amber and Bella, which truly made us feel at ease. It was clear that our dogs were in great hands. We highly recommend Shannon for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Shannon”

We felt so comfortable being away to enjoy our wedding knowing Charlie was in good hands with Faith looking after him!! She sent pictures daily and she played with him, brushed him, kept him company and made sure he had with water and food. She kept our house nice and clean and was the perfect pet sitter. Highly recommend!! So happy he was well taken care of.”
