Jenevieve was absolutely amazing! She came over for a quick meet and greet before we were planning to be gone. While we were gone I got so many pictures for each visit, she was right on time and made an extra effort to wear our puppy out since he was in his kennel all day. We were so nervous to leave him but Jenevieve was amazing and put our minds at ease ☺️

Brad was top notch, we’re so happy we found him! Our dogs were happy and healthy when we got back home from vacation. Brad was punctual and we didn’t have to worry at all with our dogs in his hands. In fact, we immediately booked again with Brad and look forward to having him back. Thank you so much, Brad!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have over 7 years of hands-on pet care experience. Growing up with dogs taught me how to understand their different personalities and needs. I also have a Shih Tzu of my own, so I know how important it is to provide pets with love, patience, and a safe environment. In addition, I’ve cared for my sister’s dogs, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and making sure they feel comfortable while she’s away. I understand that every dog is unique, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care I give my own. You can count on me to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care while you’re away. I currently work part-time at a daycare, which has helped me become responsible, patient, and dependable. I’m fully available on Thursdays and Fridays, and I’m available Monday through Wednesday after 8:00 p.m. I’m hoping to make pet care my full-time career through Rover, so I’m committed to providing reliable, loving, and attentive care for every pet. I’ll always make sure your furry family member gets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special needs so they receive the best care possible. I have a friendly Shih Tzu of my own, and I always make sure introductions are done safely and only if everyone is comfortable. Whether we’re going on leashed walks, playing, or relaxing at home, I’ll provide a safe, clean, and loving environment. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

Allison is always super flexible with my last minutes bookings & changes. It’s a huge weight off of my shoulders to know that my pup is checked in on when she’s alone at home all day!

I needed last minute care for my dogs before a trip and she was amazing. She took great care of my dogs even through my dogs weren’t used to new people visiting the apartment. She even checked in on them during bad weather. Really appreciate the help and would recommend.

About: Visiting pets will be treated like members of our family where they will be attended to all the time. I do not kennel my pets. I am retired so now I stay home with my pets. I am available all hours and will fit any of my schedule that comes up around your pets needs. My pets are my babies. They do not stay out all day. I have 1/3 acre of fenced grassy yard for pate to play in, when they’re not inside with me.

About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life and have always had pets, ranging from hedgehogs to donkeys! I am very passionate about animal care and ensuring all animals are pampered and well-loved. My family and I recently lost our two oldest pups, 16-year-old queen diva ZuZu Bailey and 10 year old loveable doofus Bandit. They were huge parts of our life and we miss them terribly, but through the loss we gained Stevie Nicks and Princess Buttercup. They love to play with others! They are accompanied by 2 cats who are treated like royalty and have their own enclosed catio with tunnels. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, as well as giving medications or tending to special needs. Your pet(s) will be in a safe environment and receive the same love and attention as ours! I teach part-time, so I am often home during weekdays and always during summers. When I do work, I am only a short distance and can easily come home during the day to check on the furry friends. Our fenced, spacious yard is perfect for galavanting and play. Our youngest pup is still learning not to chew the remote and is kenneled only if she will be alone for an extended amount of time. Otherwise, dogs are free to roam in our house!

Jean has been wonderful with our dog, and I highly recommend her! She's been reliable, caring, and communicative every time. Rico absolutely loves when she comes over, which gives us so much peace of mind whenever we're away. It's clear she genuinely cares about him, and we always know he's in great hands.

Rachel is amazing! Maybe a "cat whisperer?!" First time leaving my dog for more than 1 night. I loved the pics I got more than I expected! It eased my mind, so I could concentrate on my work trip duties. She gave great care & love to my 2 cats and 1 dog. Highly recommend! Good job, I will use again!

Paige did a great job and was available on a short notice which I very much appreciated. Also one of our dogs was being playfully defiant and she was patient and ended up getting him to drop his ball and come back inside. Thanks for the great service!
