“We cannot say enough great things about Miranda. She took great care of our four dogs. She even took them to our pool to hang out while we were away. Our house looked great and our dogs were very happy. In the past, we've had issues with anxiety but this time absolutely no issues upon our return! Thank you Miranda - we hope to have you again real soon”
“Torrie was amazing with my dog, Boston, and made sure I got updates and pictures of their time together. Highly recommend and looking forward to our future bookings. ☺️”
“Shemoy was absolutely awesome with my boy. She visited him before the day and developed a good connection and interacted with him like she had known him forever. She was incredibly loving with him and I was more comfortable that I thought I would be for our first time away!”
“Kristen took very good care of my buddy Stripe. She is responsible, reliable, sends updates and pics to ensure all is well. I would definitely recommend her and hope to use her again in the future.”
“Kimberly was fantastic with our 2 fur babies. She stayed at our rental during the day on our two day stay while we were out on the motorcycle. Our dogs absolutely loved her and so did we. She even brought our pups organic dog treats and she left us a thank you card for us. She is a true professional. We will absolutely use Kimberly again when we come back to Colonial Beach.”
“Leah is fantastic! We all know a “dog Mom” that doesn’t want to leave home because of her BABY!! (That’s me??♀️) Leah is patient and attentive, she went above and beyond for us on an extended stay. My dog, my home and my sanity were all in check with Leah. I can’t thank you enough, we will be booking again!”
“Sure! Here's a concise and casual review: Virginia is an amazing dog sitter! She stayed at our house for a week and took such great care of our two dogs. It was clear they were happy and well-loved while we were away. She kept everything in order and left the house spotless. We’d definitely trust her again—highly recommend!”
“Katie is incredible! She's wonderful with our two pups (one with special needs), kept me informed throughout the day while being respectful of my meeting schedule, administered medicine, and was a joy to have in the house. She gave us such peace of mind, and we're already looking for more dates to use her. Such a gem!”
“Alex saved the day and the dogs were happy when we got home. She was great about communication and sent picks while we were gone. So nice to nt have to worry. Thanks see you soon.”
“This is the 3rd or 4th time we have booked Vanessa! She’s amazing! She stays at our house for us. She watches our dogs and cat and she loves them like her own. I’m glad that when my wife and I go out of town we can leave without having to worry about our animals while we are gone. She’s an amazing sitter for our animals! She’s extremely attentive and very friendly! We will definitely continue booking Vanessa every time we go out of town!! It’s always a struggle to find someone who will take care of your animals the way you do, but for us, Vanessa is that person!!”
“5 stars isn’t enough stars! Susan & Larry were amazing. I loved that they come from caring for a big pack and could love mine like their own. They sent pictures everyday and communication was on point for the whole stay. They truly do care for your pups and will follow all directions exactly. I will always stop to check in with them first before looking for another sitter from now on!”
“Right from the start from meet and greet to the end of her first time sitting for us, Brittney was great! She was punctual, communicated well, took great care of our pups and left our home tidy! She is a mature and responsible young lady! We highly recommend her and will definitely be asking her to pet sit for us in the future. Thank you Brittney!”
“Skyler was professional and caring with our pets. She stayed 72 hours in our home and left the home clean and the dogs very happy. We will absolutely be contacting Skyler the next time we need her services as she was a joy to have in our home while we were away playing and caring for our two large dogs.”
“Jessica was wonderful! I came back home to a dog who’d been well taken care of while I was away and a house that was almost exactly as I’d left it. Jessica was also incredibly communicative and I could not be happier with her services while I was away!”
“Graeson did a great job with our little guy. The place was clean when we came back and Mr. Business did not appear as stressed or anxious as times where he was left alone for a day. Thus, we are so happy Graeson could be with him during the holiday and we really appreciate it!”
About: I have taken care of pets since age 10. Best part of my day is talking a walk or snuggling with a fur baby,one or yours! I just retired and am ready to do what I love most, devote my time and care to animals, whether that is walking, sitting, playing. I am attentive to the needs of the pet. If they need exercise, to be on leash, or elder and need in stroller. Safety is important
About: I’ve taken care of pets of all kind since i was 8. my family has always had multiple dogs in the family that i have had the responsibility to take care of. i recently welcomed my baby dempsey into my family last august as a baby and have crate and potty trained him and yard trained him as well. My neighbor travels alot and i’m always asked by her to watch over her pets all trained but just take them out give them love feed them. I currently work part time so i would be able to do overnight as well as check in daily whatever you would need. I’m available in the early morning afternoon and night I have a fenced back yard as well as a big front yard to play and run around and release energy. I do have an older Chihuahua and a lab/retriever mix but she keeps to herself and is good around other pets. and the lab/ retriever loves to play with other dogs and socialize and is very friendly. I’m currently doing rover full time so my full attention would be on your babies! Every moment would go to the puppies as needed for them I follow how the owner would normally take care of them if specific instructions are needed I would follow them in detail to make sure your babies are getting the best care
“Kate was so GREAT!! She accepted a relatively last minute booking for a 12 night sit and was so amazing with Cooper. She sent picture, messages and made things special for Cooper while she was here. She even hung out later than expect when my flight was delayed. Cooper was happy when I arrived home and and everything was in order. I will absolutely use Kate again!!”
“Lexie was one of the best we have ever had …. She loved the dogs, took care of extra things around the house and was super responsive! She is our “ go to” now and hopefully for a long while!”
