If we could give Yanira 10 shining stars, we would! Yanira took exceptional care of our sheltie Pepper in our home. Yanira arrived on time, which we appreciated since we had a plane to catch. Yanira sent regular updates and photos, and when we returned from our trip, Pepper was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Our house, BTW, was immaculate. Yanira has our highest recommendations, and we will definitely be using her again. Thank you, Yanira!!!!!

Stacy was superb! We had a last minute need due to our flight getting cancelled and Stacy was very communicative and flexible during a moment of a lot of stress. My pups were very well taken care of and I got lots of pictures. My house was well taken care of as well. Would definitely book her again in the future.

Words can not express my gratitude. I am eternally thankful. Donna becomes one of my family. My animals loved her and wanted to be around with her. I have 4 cats and one dog. Two cats are very sick. One with a heart murmur and another with diabetes and pancreatic abcess. They need constant care, medications, insulin shots, and heart murmur shots twice a day. I thought we would never find anyone willing to be with 5 animals and take care of sick cats with medications and shots 24/7. But , luckily, we found Donna. She retired pharmacists, and she did everything like most animal caretakers would not. Make no reservation. Donna is simply the best. We couldn't possibly even dream about anyone can handle this with such a care and dedication. We have contacted many Rover Stars, but they didn't even come close to our very complicated demands, but Donna not just did what she was ased for but exceeded all our expectation. She is the dream come true for any cats or dog owners!

About: Hi! I've been around animals my whole life, and caring for pets is truly second nature to me. I've owned and loved both dogs and cats since I was a kid, and that lifelong experience shows in how I care for every animal I meet. What really sets me apart is my background in pet care and dog training. I graduated from Norfolk County Agricultural High School, where I took many animal science courses. I took classes in canine behavior, pet shop management, and animal science. I learned how to handle, groom, and care for dogs of all breeds, through hands-on experiences. I bring patience, knowledge, and lots of love to every pet I care for. I am college student spending the rest of my summer from July 8 until August 22 at home. This means I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m already helping my family take care of our own dog, so adding more pets to my routine fits in perfectly! I am available Monday through Friday and am very flexible throughout the day, so I can easily accommodate different schedules and needs. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I stay in tune with how they are feeling, making sure they’re well-fed, clean, healthy, and getting plenty of rest and outdoor time. At home, I provide a pet-friendly environment. I’m also lucky to live next to a reservation with trails, open fields, and ponds and streams perfect for dogs who love to explore nature. I enjoy taking pets on these little adventures to keep them active and mentally stimulated. When it comes to pet care, I always treat each animal as if they were my own.

Casey was super communicative, thoughtful, and attentive to details throughout the entire process. She genuinely cares about the dogs and it showed. Any dog parent understands the anxiety over leaving their babies with someone new - but Casey really pulled through and was so reliable! The dogs LOVED her. Thank you Casey. You're a gift!

We had an amazing experience with Anna over the Thanksgiving holiday. She stayed at our home and took incredible care of our pups, sending photos multiple times a day and keeping us fully updated on how everyone was doing. It gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs absolutely adored her, and we could tell they were comfortable and happy the entire time. We’re already looking forward to having her stay with them again in a few weeks. Highly recommend!

Caroline H. was great! I really appreciated that she reached out a few days in advance so I felt confident there would be no hiccups on the start date. I also appreciated that she stripped the bed and started the washing machine with her sheets and towels before we came home. She was understanding when, after the wedding, I was delayed and my brother and his wife arrived back at the house before me. But most importantly, I could tell she treated our dog well while were were away!

About: I have cared for all sizes and breeds of dog (ranging from 3lb to 115lbs) and I have experience caring for senior dogs and puppies! I’ve owned dogs of my own as well, and I truly love being around and caring for them. I’ve become very comfortable reading dogs’ body language and understanding their individual needs and personalities. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I have plenty of time for dog sitting/visits in your home, dog walking, or boarding at my home or your home (if not too far!) I have a nice big back yard for your dog/dogs to roam. They would have access to the whole house. Can be crated if requested!

While we were away, we received consistent communication and pictures of our kitties to let us know all was going well. We highly recommend Eleanor for house and pet sitting!

Another 5-Star review for Yanira. Yanira is the best of the best. We have used her many times to dog sit our sheltie, Pepper, and she has always provided outstanding care. Our instructions are always followed, photos and updates are sent regularly, and our house is left immaculate when we return. We have complete peace of mind knowing Pepper is in such loving and reliable hands. Yanira is wonderful, trustworthy, and truly goes above and beyond. She is highly recommended to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter. Thank you, Yanira.

Joanna took excellent care of our two dogs for a week while we were out of town. They settled right in with her, even our skittish newly adopted puppy, and she did a great job keeping us up to date with daily photos, notes, etc. I would highly recommend Joanna to anyone looking for someone to take care of their fur babies!

Chloe did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our two dogs (Nala, a one year old golden retriever and Maui, an almost six year old, lab mix) while we were away. From the start, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced with handling pets. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy and well cared for. One thing that really stood out was how quickly our dog Maui—who is usually very picky about people—gravitated toward her right away. That alone spoke volumes about Chloe’s calm, trustworthy presence and natural connection with animals. It’s obvious that Chloe genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and she treated ours like her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Chloe to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate pet sitter. We are already thinking about leaving again so the dogs can hang out with Chloe.
