“We had a wonderful, stress-free experience with Samantha during her week-long stay in our home. She took great care of our dog and he was completely himself when we returned. Our home was also well cared for and very clean when we returned. She kept us updated regularly with photos and messages, and we had peace of mind while traveling. Samantha is reliable, trustworthy, friendly, and professional. We would absolutely book her again!”

“Antoinette was exceptional! We recently learned that our dog has a heart condition and we were worried to leave him alone for the weekend. Antoinette communicated with us very regularly, giving updates on when he ate, took his medication and what he was up to throughout the day. She genuinely seemed to care about him, even though they had just met. She went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable leaving him in her care and she left our home in immaculate condition. I highly recommend Antoinette to anyone looking for pet care; we absolutely would book again.”

“Christine is an amazing sitter. We have two small dogs (one is a puppy) and we were concerned about having them stay in someone else's home. Thankfully, we found Christine, who will come to your house to stay. She not only met, but exceeded our expectations. Rex and Rusty were well taken care of and our house was exactly the way we left it (if not cleaner). We will definitely be using Christine in the future!”

“Faith was wonderful with our cat, Bitty! She is 17 with severe kidney disease and requires a lot of extra care and medication. Faith is gentle and kind and gave Bitty all of her meds for us while we were away. She was super communicative and sent us adorable pictures! I recommend Faith to anyone whose critters need a little bit of extra TLC and will continue to trust her with our little fur babies ?”

This is the first time I used Rover. Would definitely use Kerry’s services again. My boys were happy and content when I returned home. So much better than taking them to a kennel for boarding. She kept us updated on their status and sent a lot of pictures.
