2. Ashley A.

“Ashley was so conscious and attentive to both our concerns about leaving our pup and making certain Red was happy and safe. She is terrific. We would not hesitate calling on her again.”

“She was absolutely fantastic. Gave extra love and effort to my dog with separation anxiety. Thanks so much for all you did for my Kyla!!”


4. Andrea M.

“Took on my absolute last minute booking with a level head, introduced my kitten to her other cats so that soon they were nice and chummy. I can tell Limbo was well taken care of. Thanks so much!”


5. Sally M.

“Our dogs love going to Sally’s! She takes them on regular walks and even arranged a play date for our very active Aussie puppy. We have an energetic puppy and an senior, mellow, Newfoundland. That’s a big diversity to look after! It’s especially nice that Sally makes sure that both dogs get love and activity at a level appropriate for their individual needs. ❤️”


6. Jared W.

“This is the 3rd or 4th time I’ve used Jared as a pet sitter and don’t plan to stop. He does an AMAZING job. Great with communication! Thank you again!”


7. Kendra H.

“I was very thankful to find This dog service on Rover. My dog is older and can become very anxious with transitions. Kendra kept me updated with her progress throughout the week while I was gone. When I picked her up she was clean and happy to see me yet appeared very comfortable around Kendra which meant so much! She is a natural with dogs. I highly recommend her service if you need someone you can trust with your pet. Such a welcomed & refreshing alternative to kennel boarding, just what I hoped for. Thanks again Kendra!”




8. Heather W.

“Heather was amazing! I have a super hard time leaving my pup for any length of time, but Heather made it super easy. Sammy had a blast and learned a lot about self-control!!! She is a great sitter and trainer! He already misses her and her pups! Will for sure rebook in the future!!!!”


9. Megan G.
“Megan loves animals more than anyone I have witnessed. She took such amazing care of my dog whenever I went on trips. And let me tell you my dog isn't easy to handle, with her energetic, anxiety ridden self, but she loved her and gave her so many cuddles and treats. Her dogs are so used to other dogs from her fostering dogs in the past. Those dogs welcomed mine with open arms. She had so much fun playing with them in her huge fenced in yard. She's one of the few people I would honestly trust watching my animals, she even watched our bearded dragon for us! 💗”


10. Cheryl & Sean C.

“My two girls (lab and golden) had such a great time. They were loved and cared for as if their own. They also had a ton of fun outside play time and came home super tired. They live on a beautiful little lake. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my sweeties.”


11. Lorretta R.
“I can't say enough great things about Lorretta and the care she provides for my dog. Like many pet owners, my dog means the world to me, and it takes a lot for me to trust someone with them. Lorretta cares for my dog as if he were her own. She is extremely professional, responsible, and caring. She is very flexible and reliable and has made my life much easier. It has been very simple to schedule with her, and she provides very personalized care- easy to reach and gives updates after her visits. It has been a pleasure having Lorretta care for our dog, I highly recommend Lorretta to anyone looking for a dog walking service.”


12. Bob D.


“Bob dog sat for our Brittany spaniel, Louie, and did an excellent job! He treated Louie like his own, often sent photos and updates and took Louie swimming and walks. He also has an amazing set-up with a doggy door leading to a fenced space. Louie had a great time at Bob’s! We highly recommend booking with him.”


13. Jane S.

“Our little Walter LOVED his time with Jane!! It’s pretty easy to see when he is at ease somewhere/ with someone- and he just went and laid down when we got there, I’ve never seen him more comfy at a “strangers” house. We are more at ease now when we have to leave him because we know he will be in great hands!! She also was so accommodating with a last minute schedule hiccup on our end- nothing but great things to say about Jane. :)”


14. Ashley A.

“Ashley was absolutely amazing. I had to board Captain for 4 days. Her along with her family took great care of him and loved on him as if he was their own.”


15. Emily S.

“Emily was great! She was flexible with drop off/pick up times, took the dogs to the dog park and kept me up to speed with some photos! The dogs came home tired and happy.”


16. Michael H.
“Michael is excellent with my anxious dog Ellie Mae. My husband recently had a knee replacement and is unable to walk our large black lab, Michael has been very helpful. He is flexible with timing and Ellie loves him! I would recommend Michael to anyone looking for a kind and honest dog walker:)”


17. Veyda D.
About: I believe dogs and cats are better than humans. I’m currently training a puppy as a service dog candidate and my days revolve around puppy care and training. I use a positive training approach and have experience with all kinds of dogs from chihuahuas to hounds to labradoodles. I’m a part time online college student trying to make enough money through freelance gigs and other forms of the gig economy. I have tons of free time that’s already dedicated to pet care so may as well add a few more to the mix. Your pets safety is of the utmost importance to me. Caring for a pet begins with establishing a trusting relationship between me and the animal as well as you. I want all parties to feel comfortable with my presence and I adapt to the needs of the pet rather than the other way around. At my own home, I have a fenced in yard (6ft) for doggy daycare on a case by case basis.


18. Arianna W.

“Arianna took great care of Lady! She will treat your pets like her own. She is great at communicating and shares frequent updates.”


19. Erica G.

“My family had Erica watch our puppy Oliver while we went on vacation. She did an absolutely amazing job with him. He got to play with her two dogs and go on lots of walks during the day. Unexpectedly she found a tick on him and took him into the vet to get him checked out. She went above and beyond to make sure Oliver had a fun and safe time. My dad was worried sick about leaving his puppy with a stranger, but Erica sent him multiple pictures throughout the day, and I think that's the only reason we didn't turn back for Oliver. I would recommend Erica to anyone that needs their dog to be boarded for any length of time and we will be booking her again.”


20. Ashley K.

“Ashley was an amazing communicator!!! I received so many photos (which gave me peace of mind). I will absolutely be using her services again. My dog came home happy & healthy!”
