“This will be a different type of review for Lucky. Unfortunately we did not have the chance for Lucky to come over and complete a drop in due to our bulldog Stanley crossing the rainbow bridge. Stanley and Quinoa both absolutely loved meeting Lucky at our meet and greet. Lucky took care of the Rover side of things and handled everything so we didn't have to due to our circumstances. Theyre very kind and thoughtful, and in the future we will be booking with Lucky 🖤”


“Maria was available on short notice and did an amazing job. I was heading out of town and she not only came over for a meet & greet the night of the booking, but she was able to check in on my dogs over the upcoming weekend.”


“Christopher and Cassandra really came through and helped my dogs and I urgently. They did everything perfectly and interacted with my dogs understanding each of their different personalities. Thank you so much!”


“Amy was personable, professional, and took great care of my 3 dogs when we went out of town. I needed a last minute dog sitter and Amy was extremely prompt in her acceptance and ironing out the details. She came over the next day to meet the boys and she made me feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. She kept me updated throughout the weekend and that was great. Thank you so much!!”



“Michael was fantastic - he checked in on my cat twice a day (she has dietary restrictions), sent me daily pictures and updates on how she was doing, and made me feel at ease (this was my first extended trip away from my pet!). I will not hesitate to have him care for Mika again, and would recommend his services to anyone needing animal care!”


“Alexandra did a great job. She followed all the instructions I left. My kitties were relaxed and happy when I returned. I felt confident my kitties were well taken care of.”


“Hannah was great. She responds quickly to messages and communicates well. My cat liked her right away. It was the first time I have used a service like this rather than imposing on friends and neighbors. I am happy to have found Hannah, and will definitely call upon her in the future.”


“Bryanna did a great job taking care of my cat Sunny. She is personable,responsible, and has a way with animals. My shy cat came to greet her on the very first day. I loved getting pictures and updates every day. I was able to relax on my trip and I came home to a happy cat. I will definitely call Bryanna for any future trips.”


“We love Nicole and so does my dog. She was quick to respond and made the whole process easy. This is my second time booking with Nicoe and I will keep on using her. We appreciate the photos that she sends. Our Lola is a special needs dog and we are very pleased with the attention and extra care Nicole gives her. You can tell that she really has a love for what she does.”


About: We always had dogs in the house growing up. We raised a german shepherd, golden retriever, brittany spaniel, Great Dane, malamute, black labs, and more. I am very comfortable around bigger dogs and would love to take care of yours! I lost my black lab German shepherd a couple years ago. I took a fur baby break, but now I have my baby puppy Luna who is a golden retriever mix. We also grew up with cats. For the month of July I am working part time so I have more time to look after your fur babies. For the month of July I work part time so I have extra free time to look after your fur babies. My weekdays are more free than my weekends. I have a fenced in yard to keep you pup(s) safe to spend lots of time outside and explore. I would also love to drop in and will double check the lock upon leaving.

About: My name is Emily, I have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own, so we’re very much animal lovers. I love walks and play time! I have been caring for my own animals and others for about 15 years now so I have plenty of experience taking care of them. I have also worked in a few groomers and kennels as well! I always make sure my animals are well taken care of and safe so you won’t have to worry about your sweet babies while they are in my care! I would love to get to know you and your animals better and make lasting relationships for the future! Thanks for checking me out and I hope to hear from you very soon!

About: I show the same love and care to every pet I encounter as if they were my own. Any pet that is in my care will feel safe and happy. I am a stay at home father so I have plenty of time to schedule walks and drop ins. I am available most mornings and afternoons. If in house service is needed I will make sure your pet is safe and comfortable. Any instructions provided to me will be followed to the tee.

About: I work from home so your pet will not be left home alone for extended periods of time. I am kind, compassionate, and patient. I have knowledge of working with a variety of pet personalities, including those shy and nervous. I have extensive experience working with dogs including working in a boarding kennel, at a pet store, and at a dog park. I also have 15 years of house and pet sitting experience. My personal experience includes being around dogs my entire life. My family has always had them in the home and once I moved out, I gained a couple of my own. I have two dogs who are 100% pet friendly. I specialize in sensitive and older dogs who may have a hard time at a boarding kennel or in a more lively home. I have both a rescue and older dog who are sensitive and unable to be boarded outside of the home. I know how difficult this can be and would love to open my home to your pet when you are in need. Iwould like to make your dog sitter situation as stress-free as possible, and am willing to do what is required to diminish the worry that comes with leaving your pets in the care of someone else. My home is an excellent environment for the more particular pets, as it is tailored to my own. I live in a ranch with no other people in the home. There are no stairs and the majority of the floor is carpet, perfect for pets who have issues with mobility or fear regarding flooring. Pets are always given the option to socialize with us but if they prefer to be on their own to rest. We will not have visitors while your pup is a guest. I am a public school employee and do not work out of the home over the summer. Your pet will get plenty of attention and entertainment. I care for your dog as if it were my own. I can make accommodations on a dog by dog basis. My personal dogs have wildly different needs and I recognize that not all dogs have the same needs. I will do what is necessary to keep your dog happy, healthy, and safe.

“Krystal was wonderful with my cat! Mazzy is usually pretty standoffish but Krys worked her magic and hand her eating treats from her hand and even brushing her in no time. Krys is very easy to communicate with and trustworthy with your animals and home. Would definitely recommend and will be using her again.”
