Kathryn was so wonderful! She took great care of our senior cat with special needs, and our rowdy, energetic young beagle mix. She kept in touch every day, and sent lots of photos. Our house can get a little messy with my cats litter boxes, plus he's a bit incontinent. But we returned home to an immaculate house, with very happy fur babies. We're so grateful, and will definately book Kathryn again! 100%

Sara is not just a sweet person in general but she was so great with our fur babies while we were out of town, I don’t even think they missed us! She went out of her way to make sure the house and our fish were cared for as well. 🥰

Lisa is amazing! I’m so lucky to have found her. My dog is wearing a cone from a recent surgery so I was unable to leave her alone and Lisa came to the rescue. She is so kind and attentive. I have no worries at all, and my dog loves when Lisa watches her. Thanks again for another great stay!

About: Since I was little I always loved all kinds of animals especially dogs being my favorite. They are truly a wonderful creation on earth. I been having a pet basically my whole life and once I moved out I had to get a me a little companion or two. When I was searching for houses to buy, one of my main requirements was a house with a big back yard for my dogs to play in. I have two dogs Dakota who's 3 husky mixed with pitbull and a 8 month german shepherd who loves to play and make friends. But once again I am a very huge animal person and if you choose to let your companion stay with me I will treat and love him like my own I currently do security and most of my shifts are overnight, so your pet would be taken care of greatly throughout the day and would have plenty of outside time depending on the weather I have big fenced back yard with cameras for your dog safety and to have plenty of outside time, I also have two dogs who would love to keep them company and I am currently making a room just for the dogs to relax from everyone if needed.

We truly appreciate David’s care of our pup and home while we were away. He followed instructions to a T and was proactive with communication. We loved the routine updates and pictures, especially seeing that Bailey was getting his walks when weather allowed.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 17, including my own senior fur baby and my parents’ Pomeranian, who has diabetes (so I’m experienced with giving shots!). I’ve also cared for friends’ pets. I’m patient, kind, and loving, and I enjoy daily walks, playtime, and lots of belly rubs. Every dog is unique, and I love making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I am very extra when it comes to my own dogs, so your fur baby is in great hands if I do say so myself! My goal is to be a top sitter on Rover, so please feel free to reach out :) I work from home and have some extra time to watch over your little buddy. My dogs are pretty chill and could use a friend during the day. I have a fenced yard for secure playtime. I have two small dogs of my own to keep your dog company so no need to worry about them wondering around the neighborhood.

Perniall did great with our girls. It took no time at all for him to befriend our chronically suspicious chihuahua. He was diligent and really paid attention to our pups, getting to know their quirks - it was clear he was truly present with them and not just running through a checklist. He gave us helpful feedback, aiding in elucidating some blind spots we've had as parents. Specifically, he gave us some suggestions to get our big girl to slow down while eating to improve her postprandial comfort. He was in regular contact during our absence, giving us space but always ready to attend to our anxious requests for photos and updates. The dishes are all done and the place looks maybe better than we left it. Thank you, Perniall! I would recommend him to anyone looking for good hands to trust their beloved babies with.
