“Samantha is absolutely wonderful. She has watched my two dogs (Lab mix and a Rhodesian ridgeback mix) multiple times and has always taken extremely good care of them making regular check-ins and spending time playing with them while I was away. Always very responsive and diligent in her care, I would highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for extraordinary care for your fur children.”

7. Vanessa P.
“Vanessa came 3 times a day for a whole week while I was gone for Thanksgiving! She checked in on my cat and walked my dog and fed her. It was super nice knowing my senior puppy can be comfortable at home even while im gone. Vanessa is really responsive and timely and goes above and beyond! (playtime with my pup, strategically hiding the house keys when needed, and letting me know of any changes or things going on with my critters promptly.) Thanks for being my go-to pet sitter! You’re awesome!!”

10. Hannah G.
“We are lucky we found Hannah! Our first time with Rover and we were unsure about how to set up the walk. Hannah was super patient and walked us through the process. Hannah helped us with our 2 dogs for 10 walks spread over a month. She was always on time and was able to handle our dogs with no issues. Both dogs are 80 lbs+ and one is a little too smart and the other has only 2 brain cells. lol. Hannah worked with us and made sure our dogs had a good time. We will surely look for Hannah when we need help in the future! 5 stars all around!”

12. Kristen M.
“We have relied on Kristen for our shih tzu's for many years. They accept her as part of their family at this point. She has aided in teaching us how to train them as puppies and they're now 10+ yrs old. Kristen has always accommodated our schedule plus has administered meds to both over the years. This included oral meds and injections for our diabetic male They both love her as do we. She is outgoing with an endearing personality. She brings us reassurance when out of town travel is necessary. We appreciate her calmness and willingness to adjust to our needs We most certainly recommend Kristen 👍🏼”

14. Azeen K.
“Azeen looked after our yellow lab while we were on vacation. She was terrific. She walked him twice a day, took him swimming, dried him off, and looked after his needs. She even helped with our pool, and turned on our AC on the final day. I highly recommend her, and would not hesitate to use her again. She's also very friendly”

18. Brian Josiah R.
About: Took care of 6 dogs growing up, I care for living things for a living (nurse!). I am a loving, compassionate, and patient caretaker with so much unconditional love for the good boys and good girls everywhere! I work a predictable and flexible schedule, and stay local for most of the week. I am a big homebody who will keep our pals company! Most of my routine consists of self care and spending time with others at home or near my home. You can trust me to maintain your home to the condition you left it in. I will care for your pets like you never left the house, and make sure they are comfortable waking up, during the day, and going to sleep!
