2. Mackenzie G.
“Found Mackenzie on Rover and made initial contact with her. To my pleasant surprise I learned that her mother and I worked together prior to my retirement and I gave Mackenzie her diploma at graduation!!! Mackenzie cam by our house and met Bella. All good after that. We booked Mackenzie for a future trip. She came back by prior to our departure to get more detailed instructions on care of Bella and our house. Our trip went very well and Mackenzie took worrying about our house and Bella away. She took very good care of both. We will definitely engage her again.”

“Here’s your review polished slightly for flow: Caitlin stayed overnight to care for our dogs, Toby and Lovie, and they both seemed relaxed and happy when we got home. She followed all the instructions we provided and took excellent care of them as well as our home. I would definitely have Caitlin stay again in the future!”
6. Coreena C.
“Coreena was great ! Did a wonderful job Pets and housesitting. We have multiple rescue pets some with illness and meds. We were comforted that Coreena could care for our animals because she is a vet tech. Not having to board them is such a relief! Our Rescues do not do well with boarding due to anxiety and past experiences. Highly recommend Coreena and will be rehired for future pet and housesitting needs.”

9. Ana L.
About: I am an animal lover. I have always had to take care of someone’s dog(kid). I have four dogs of my own and would want someone to take good care of them. Patience is definitely a key component into taking care of them. I am currently working a full time job but my weekends are free to make extra money. I can do sitting after 6:00pm on Fridays. I have a fenced in yard for your legged kid to run around. I also have hard wood floors incase they were to have an accident. I rather have your pet inside than inside for better care.
