“Andrew did a great job walking my dog Bo this week. He provided excellent updates and was on time. Bo took to Andrew immediately. I will be booking Andrew for future walks!”


2. Cameron F.
“Cameron is kind and considerate, and is able to handle all of our pets. We have a special routine for feeding our excitable Labs which he has handled with no problem. We also have a small dog who requires eye drops daily, again handled with no problems. Our cats seem to really enjoy playing with Cameron, and everyone looks forward to seeing him. We also have a a small Koi pond that he also takes care of. I am always very comfortable leaving my pets in Cameron’s care!”




3. Kenneth B.

“Kenneth watched Linc for 5 days while I was on vacation. The dogs loved him at a meet and greet before I left. Kenneth was reliable and worked with me to get details worked out. I got notifications, pictures and updates on each walk which was nice. I'd be more than happy to use him again.”


4. Melissa E.

About: I provide 24 hour a day care for your pet while you are away. I have relatively high availability. I am trained and certified in canine CPR and first aid. I also have experience with pocket pets, reptiles, and farm animals. I work with animals of all sizes and shapes. I can also provide training if asked. I am working towards earning my vet-tech certification. I am very flexible willing to work with you and your dog. I am always willing to go above and beyond for your pet. Rover is my only job, and I pride myself in the quality of care I am able to give. Your Fur-Babies are my only focus. I provide 24-hour supervision, long walks (it has not been uncommon for me to do mile-long walks with the dogs), frequent potty breaks, and lots of playtime.


5. Amanda W.

“Amanda is amazing with Ovitto and Kakashi, we received pictures of them looking all happy. Love the care and attention she gives them, very understanding & patient with Kakashi who is very shy and nervous when out of his comfort zone.”


6. Toni W.
“Toni would be an awesome dog sitter and a great addition to your company. Most of us know that when we have to leave our pets to go on a trip it's very stressful; a lot of worrying involved. I have known Toni forever and can attest that she has a gift with dogs which puts people at ease. When dogs see her the tails start wagging or they get the wiggle butts. She has always taken exceptional care of her own dogs & cats and because of that people seek her out to critter sit including myself. Toni is reliable and extremely detail oriented so if a dog needs special care or they have a certain schedule she will make sure to follow through. Toni has a great personality, she's easy to get along with and will work very hard to do the job right.”


7. Kourtli D.
“Kourtli is someone that adores, loves and respect the nature of every animal she’s come across. I can’t think of a more devoted person that will go above & beyond to insure the animal/pet needs are met, and the animal/pet is well taking care of.”


8. Jacqueline T.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember I grew up with cats and dogs in my home. I regularly take care of my parent's pets when they are at work or out of town. I run my business at home, so my schedule is completely flexible. I'm happy to visit your dog or cat whenever best for their schedule. I have a fenced yard. I currently have 1 dog and 1 kitty both are very friendly to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. From feeding to playing to walking I'm able to care for your pets in every way possible. I am happy to meet some new pet friends! I will do my best to make your fur feel HAPPY and SAFE!


9. Lisa D.
“Lisa is an upstanding dog sitter. Her love for animals is just a great feeling when you leave your pets with her. I felt so safe and comfortable with her and my pets loved her so much. She is also a dog trainer as well. I can now fell safe when I leave for weeks at a time to travel. Thank you Lisa ❤️”


10. Kristin R.

“Kristin is the only person I trust to care for my pets when I am away. She is very knowledgeable. Kristin has experience as a veterinarian technician and has spent the last decade working in an animal shelter. She has fostered dogs and cats during that time as well. Kristin has a true love of animals. I am confident that she is giving my pet attention and love on top of feedings and walks. I highly recommend her services.”


11. Amanda J.
“I work 9-5 everyday and it's such a convenience to have someone around that can pop in at my house and let my 6 month old catahoula leopard dog, Koda out. It gives me the piece of mind knowing he isn't locked up all day. Koda, takes a little bit of time to warm up to people, but Amanda was able to break down that barrier quicker than most. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. Also, her dependability is really appreciated on my end. I'll continue to use her services as long as I can! ”


12. Gabriela B.

“Malia is awesome! She’s been one of my good friends for a long time! She always baby sits my pets when me and my husband go away and does a phenomenal job! I would trust her over and over again- 10 out of 10 highly recommended!!!!”


16. Kay I.
“Kay has been a great sitter with our two dogs, every time we go on vacation we always ask her to take care of our dogs and they absolutely love her, she follows all the instructions that we give her as with feeding and walking schedule. I would recommend her her to anyone who is looking for a dog loving person she is the one.”


17. Forest & Zachary G.
About: I love all animals so much! I treat them all like they are my own. I’ve taken care of a wide range of animals, from elderly dogs, to birds, and horses! I owned a Pet Sitting business for many years, but moved states once I got married. Me and my husband are homesteaders. He works from home, and we both tend our ducks and garden. We are hoping to have a farm stand this next summer! I love working hard and all animals! We have a very big fenced in back yard where your babe can run free and we can play! We are outside all the time with our animals and garden.


18. Lindsey S.
“Lindsey was our go to walker for our dog Winnie. She came 3 to 4 times a week and stayed over a couple of times. We completely trusted her with our dog. Winnie was definitely our child and so we are nervous parents but Lindsey put me at ease. She is a true animal lover. Reliable and dependable we would hire again for any new pup.”
