13. Julia D Y.
“Julia is such a caring, reliable, trustworthy Rover host. We were in a bind and asked Julia for help with walks for our two high energy dogs. Despite asking on such short notice, Julia was able to accommodate us into her schedule and took great care of our pups. She sent very detailed photos and write-ups, and even took them for a longer walk one of the days even though we only reserved a 30-minute walk. You can tell Julia really has a passion for animals. Thank you Julia, we will surely be scheduling with you again in the future!”

19. Cyndi & Paul H.
“Cyndi and Paul are absolutely amazing human beings and the best dog walkers ever. I was lucky to have them walk my dog for a whole week while I was away. They both were extremely attentive, always on time and were even kind enough to give her extended walks beyond the 30 minute window. I really appreciate their help as I could tell my dog was so much less depressed when I returned than she typically would be in my absence. I highly recommend Cyndi & Paul and will absolutely use their service again.”
20. Amanda L.
“Amanda has walked our golden retriever, Minnie, several times and is always so great with her. She is reliable and responsive and always friendly - Minnie loves going on walks with her!”
