“5 Stars all around. Chirstina has been dropping in and seeing my 3 month Old Golden Retriever Duke for an hour everyday for the past week now. She is amazing. Keeps me updated. Send me pictures, and also helps train him! Writes me a wonderful summary after every visit letting me know how his day was!! Anyone who is looking for a respectful person to trust in your home to watch your dog while you are away at work for a few hours. She’s your girl! I am pleased with everything she has done so far and will continue to keep on using her to take care of Duke while I am at work! Thank you Chirstina. Me and Duke appreciate you so much! You are absolutely incredible!”
4. Megan W.
“Megan was amazing. Extremely understanding and knew how to give my cat his insulin injections. She was very nice and great with my cats.”
5. Cydni S.
“This was our first time using Rover and Cydni S. Cydni did a phenomenal job with our 3 dogs! She was always sending pictures at every drop-in with a description of how they were doing. Our dogs needed medication daily and she had no problem with giving it, she even paid attention to our picky eater and made sure she attended to his needs. Cydni went above and beyond by getting a package left on the porch out of the rain and tiding up the house for us. We can tell that they received lots of love and care! I would use Cydni again and recommend her to someone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter.”
6. Lindy H.
“If you are looking for someone to treat your fur baby as one of her own look no further! Lindy always takes such good care of our Kobi, who as an older dog has a few physical restrictions and medical needs. She always goes above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy while we are away. I know that Kobi is in capable loving hands and well taken care of and that puts me at ease when I'm away.”
7. Hillary H.

“Shianna was ver nice and took very good care of my girls. She met up with us before to get to know them and so that I could show her where all their necessities were. Would definitely hire her to drop in again!”

About: I love the interaction with dogs and have many years of experience caring for my own pets along with friend’s, neighbor’s, and relative’s dogs. I can provide a clean and safe environment for your dog. I am currently available throughout the week both day and evening hours to care for your dog. Your dog will receive care and attention around the clock. I have a nice large fenced in backyard where your dog can run in a quiet private neighborhood setting. The turf is well maintained and safe.
11. Ashlee N.
“Absolutely wonderful person!!!! She has done drop in’s on 2 of my dogs. My Molly died in January & she literally was very upset. I am being foster mom to my son’s Pomeranian!!! He ended up where he can’t take his pup so I have him. He is a crazy tater tot & she gives him lots of love & he loves playing fetch & running in circles around her when he see’s her! A true blessing!”
12. Melissa V.
“To say Melissa is a pet lover is an understatement. She has a huge amount of compassion for animals, which is what makes her the perfect pet sitter. As a child she would actually sleep in her bedroom closet with her dogs anytime there was loud thunder or fireworks, just to help keep them calm. She has volunteered at a cat rescue facility, and has taken in abandoned cats until she was able to find them permanent homes. Melissa would be a wonderful pet sitter for your cat, guinea pigs, dragons, etc...”
13. Peyton C.
“Peyton is an absolutely amazingly kind and competent sitter. Top of the line. I all have to book early in future to ensure her care for our Hobie cat in the future.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and I have also owned mine my whole life. I went to tel tctc for animal management also. I own my own photography business so this is something I would like to do when I don’t have any sessions. I also do hair We have a invisible fence, and we have baby gates in areas so she can not get into anything. Our cat stays in the house.
15. Hollis B.
“Hollis was very quick to respond and good natured. I feel safe knowing she’s punctual and experienced with my pups! My pups LOVE HER. Even on the first meeting they just loved spending time with her. She takes fun photos and really gets to know the dog!”
16. Christopher M.
“Chris was amazing with my cats! You can tell he really loves animals!! He’s had pets his whole life and has dogs of his own that he takes great care of. My cats warmed up to him right away, which is pretty rare for a couple of them!! He made sure my cats got all the attention they wanted. Chris sent me updates and pictures every day, which made me feel really comfortable leaving my pets with him. If you’re looking for someone reliable who will treat your pets like his own, Chris is definitely your guy. I can’t recommend him enough!”
17. Kathie C.
“Kathie has watched my 2 boys (1 pit bull, 1 pit/lab mix) since 2018. She stays at the house and makes sure they are well taken care of. Kathie is very neat and cleans up after herself when she stays at the house. Kathie is a huge animal lover and my boys absolutely adore her! She takes care of all of their needs and gives them so much love. She is good with communication and follows the instructions I leave for her every time. I highly recommend her services.”

“Elizabeth has communicated promptly to messages! When we come home and find our 4 westies happy and non-stressed we know they got a good loving drop in visit. Thank you Elizabeth! We will see you again! Xoxo”
19. Shawn D.
About: Our pets are our family, and making sure they are comfortable and less anxious while you are gone is so important. Who wants to go to a doggy jail while you are gone when you can have them stay in their own home so much easier and much more affordable! I've put my own through puppy training and dealing with a senior dog with hip dysplasia. Prior animals I went through the insulin shots and special diet needs. My current job I do work 9 -6:30 pm which works great for morning potty and dinner timr. Saturday through Tuesday availability is much more open during day compared to Wednesday and Thursday. I literally have a dog that knows how to open doors so I understand keeping things a certain way to protect them and mail/delivery drivers. I will maintain awareness when letting them out either on leash or perimeter fence. Keeping them on a routine route is so important during those times, they love a schedule.
20. Elsie M.
“Elsie is responsible and reliable as a pet caregiver in that she has yet to meet an animal she does not immediately love. She gives them her full attention and care as if they were her own.”
