1. Randy H.

“Randy was great with the doggies! He has a nice big back yard that they liked running around in, or just laying in the sun on the patio close to the open door. But he went above and beyond by also taking them for daily walks, which they really enjoy. I would definitely recommend him and use his services again in the future. Thanks Randy!”


2. Stacy W.


“Stacy was awesome! My kitties were so well cared for and evidently were given a lot of love! When Stacy stopped by our place to return key both kitties went straight to her for more loving! I am so delighted to have Stacy caring for my fur-babies! I've already scheduled another sitting for August and will be scheduling another for two weeks in October. So pleased with Stacy's professionalism and efficiency. And, her love of animals! Thank you, Stacy! Oh, and the photographs of Silkie and Boy were absolutely beautiful!”




3. Kate P.


“Kate was absolutely wonderful from the 1st. I could tell at the meet and great that she was perfect fit for our dogs. She didn't go straight for our cute Westie Pippa. She daringly approached Sadie our elderly,almost 16 year old English Springer Spaniel. Sadie is failing but not ready to go yet. Kate was great to take on her bowl problems, blandness and hearing problems. I felt at ease the entire time that we were away. She sent pictures as well as full accounts of how Pippa and Sadie were doing. Pippa loved the big, backyard play and her dogs company. I highly recommend Kate! I now think of her as a friend not just a dog sitter!”

“We absolutely love Beth!! This was our first time using rover and we were a bit nervous as our dog Charlie has a lot of anxiety. Beth communicated with us throughout the weekend and provided a ton of pictures and videos! She took great care of Charlie with walks, play time, and lots of snuggles. Our dog felt right at home. We can’t wait to use Beth again!”
