Zeighanna was super responsive from the day I first messaged her. She is super kind and sweet. She took care of the house and took great care of the dogs. She sent us several photos while we were away and always answered my texts quickly. We will definitely be using her again!

In a few short words. There truly isn’t a better human on earth to watch take care of your fur child! The longer story. This man has decades of experience, taking care of animals. He knows the ropes better than anyone, how to immediately recognize and address any animals needs and is one of the most loving pet care givers I have ever met. I have never put a testimonial out there, that isn’t true. After years of Rocky taking care of my pets and hundreds of others, I’m leaving a honest review. There is no better!!

Luie house-sat with our dog Sophie for five days while we went on a fly-away trip. He took good care of our dog and residence while we were away. This was the first time we tried having a homesitter for our dog, and it was a good experience! Thank you, Luie!

Lisa you are amazing! You exceeded all of our expectations. We didn’t worry about our dogs once while we were gone. We loved getting daily reports and cute pics. Thanks for being flexible when our flight changed and for taking great care of our home and plants as well:) You feel like a part of our family!

Julie was amazing! Our pets were very well care for while we were gone. We came home to a house that was in as good, if not better shape than when we left. She communicated with me any time I requested and in a timely manner. I felt good knowing they were well cared for while we were gone. Oh, she even washed the sheets on the bed she used. Great service for sure!

Lisa did a great job with my 1 1/2 yr old english bulldog. He took to her immediately during our "Meet and Greet". She was very careful to question us on his care and upkeep, and was very careful not to bring anything into my home that contained peanuts or treenuts since I am very allergic to both. My neighbors commented to me that Lisa was very careful of him when they were out walking, which was very nice to hear. Lisa did a great job and I would not hesitate to use her again. She took away all the worry that I had for leaving my boy at home while we went to Florida for a week.

About: I love all animals and have had experience with dogs and cats all my life. I have experience handling all sizes of dogs both in my personal life and at the BVSPCA. I’ve taken care of both puppies and senior dogs and cats. Attentive care is no problem for me. I’m currently available all day on the weekends and after 5 during the weekdays. If you would like hours outside of that schedule let me know three or more days in advance and I’d be happy to try and work something out! I can take pets for walks, spend time playing outside with them, or even spend some time giving them belly rubs! Any need your fur baby has, you can be confident I will provide!

Marilyn was so communicative, sent us daily updates and photos, and really cared for our dog Theo! We ran into some challenges during her stay which she handled expertly and with so much care. We would book her over and over and highly recommend her.

This was our first time using Rover, and Cole put us right at ease right from the start. He came for a meet and greet before us officially booking, which was great so we could all meet ahead of time to see if it was a good fit. We felt really comfortable with him, so we decided to move forward with house sitting the pups for the weekend. Cole stayed in constant contact throughout the whole process, even sending us pics, which I loved :). He played ball with them, their favorite past time, and fit right into their daily schedule, even letting them hop on the bed with him at night like they do with us. He also kept the house neat, which I felt was an added bonus. Our goal is to form a long-term relationship with someone, and we feel that Cole is just that person. Thanks for taking such good care of our fur babies! :)

Hannah was an awesome sitter for our dogs and cats! She sent great pics and videos, easer our anxiety, and took care of the home as well. I would highly recommend her based on how the animals responded to her, her communication, and her niceness.

Kim stayed at our home with our 2 dogs and she was fabulous. We received daily check-ins and photos and we felt really comfortable and confident with the care she gave our dogs while we were away. I really don’t think the dogs even missed us at all. ?. Plus she took great care of our home. We are already planning our next getaway and hope she can come back!

We have known Jennifer for over 20 years. She has an extensive background in training and behavior correction for dogs. Jen was able to help us keep our rescue dog when everyone told us to euthanize him due to his poor behavior. With Jen's help and techniques we were able to keep our dog until he died of old age at 22. Jen has a lot of patience and has a calming effect on dogs. I would not hesitate to employ Jennifer for any job related to dogs. In fact she is now helping us train our new puppy.

About: I currently have 6 dogs and 6 cats of my own & have had animals for as long as I can remember. I have been dogsitting for a long while for close friends and wanted to share my love for animals with you lovely folks by helping take care of your babies for you when needed and loving them like my own. Nothing brings me joy like these furry friends and am willing to take responsible care so you can enjoy time away. I currently work at a café which thankfully is very flexible with me. My normal work week is 3-4 days a week and my hours are during the day time and last anywhere from 7 or 8 am - 1 or 3 pm. I am very willing to do whatever you need in order to take care of your animal (s) and make it so they have everything it needs. I will stay at your house if need be, walk, play, feed and make sure your fur baby is having a great time. Whatever you need, I can do!
