Thank you Holly! I can say that I would recommend Holly 150%! She looked after my pups basic needs, but also made sure that they were given attention 🥰. Our fur family is very spoiled and it was fantastic to know that she was spending time with them and cuddling on the couch each day. Communication with her was excellent and she is a sweet lady. She made time to meet everyone and to pop in the day before our trip. I will definitely request her again and will use here in the future for some pop in visitation in the upcoming year. Thanks, again for everything Holly.

Nicole was fantastic! As soon as we met, my dog automatically went to her like he knew her forever. A sign of instant trust, She was great at knowing what my dog and cat needed and went above and beyond my expectations. Very personable, responsive, and excellent at keeping me up to date with everything. I will most certainly choose her again!

Fabrice is wonderful - true animal whisperer. I would give him 10 stars if I could. I have two large, active one and a half year old pups and Fab keeps them calm and under control. They even walked better with me after he walked them. He is very thoughtful, prompt, and easy to reach and communicate with. The dogs are so excited when he shows up. I cannot say enough about him.

I won’t trust just anyone with my animals but Cameron treats my pets like his own! I have 5 rescue dogs of various ages from 1-12 years, each with their own needs. Cameron is very loving and conscientious in dealing with each of them. Additionally, I have 40 fish in a pond and a barn cat so the care needs are very diverse. My dogs love him and he sends me pictures after every visit to give me peace of mind. I encourage you to trust Cameron with your precious fur babies and other critters!

Ashley is very calm, which is really important with a bulldog because you don't want them to get overheated. I could tell my dog liked her because she was very calm when I came home. All of this is very important to me! I would definitely recommend Ashley!

This was my first time using rover, the entire process was super easy and I loved the updates I was able to get while I was away. Kim was absolutely amazing!! She did drop in visits to get some play time in for my cat while I was gone for a week. She sent very detailed updates and multiple pictures of her visits. Thank you so much for taking good care of Lilly!

I set up the appointment with Erin as an opportunity to meet and have an initial interaction. She immediately was focused on building a connection with my Bentley and by playing and interacting was already picking up on nuances of Bentley and showed a genuine interest and affection. I wouldn't hesitate to have Erin spend extended time with Bentley knowing he would be well taken care of. Think he's missing her already!

About: My fiancée, Chase, and I are currently raising our lab, and have both grown up with dogs. Additionally, I often babysat for families with pets and would care for them like my own! I am lucky to only work 3 days/week and spend my off days with our dog & running errands. Helping care for your pet gives me something great to do in my time off. Chase is off on weekends and can take over responsibilities if I have to work. We have a fenced in backyard in a wonderful pet-friendly neighborhood. I ensure I follow the owner & pet’s expectations for going out, playing, and any daytime routine.
