1. Melanie P.
“Melanie was fantastic! Our pets were spoiled rotten and were very much at ease with her. I'm not sure if they missed us at all! She stayed at our house for a week while we were away on vacation. Not only were the pets were well looked after, the house was spotless. I highly recommend Melanie, we will be booking exclusively with her going forward. Her rates are very reasonable. Extremely good value. Don't hesitate booking her, you'll be glad you did. We were able to enjoy our vacation without a single worry about home and the pets.”
2. Crystal R.
“Crystal was absolutely amazing and our Reese, Rubi, and River were in wonderful hands! Crystal is communicative, asks questions and sends numerous updates and photos/videos. She made us feel 100% secure leaving our three dogs, and was completely understanding and tuned into each of their individual and unique needs. She was wonderful with our senior chihuahua mix with some special health needs, our feisty three-year old German Shepard mix, and our very very anxious senior Olde English mix. She made the time to come out and meet them before booking and make sure we were all comfortable. She is super flexible and left our home immaculate. We hope to have her watch our furbabies again soon! Thanks Crystal 🙂”
3. Caitlin B.
“This is the third time Caitlin has stayed with us, would be the fourth but the last minute thing that she was able to help us out with we didn’t end up needing. Everyone loves her! Caitlin is our go to always.”
4. Katlynn L.
“Katlynn was so great with our dogs. We added a puppy to our family last minute and she embraced it head on! Our dogs loved her and even watched her leave. I would trust her with my dogs any day of the week! She should be your go-to-gal for this area!”
5. Kelly S.
“Kelly was amazing with my dogs again. What peace of mind to know she was looking after my home and pets while I was away. So lucky we found her!”
6. Jason H.
“I was excited to hear that Jason signed on to work with Rover. I have known him in a professional capacity for several years now and have come to appreciate the wonderful relationship he has with his canine companion Henry. Jason loves his dog and strives to give Henry a balance of consistent exercise, training, affection, play and rest resulting in a healthy, happy, engaging pet. I have no doubt that he will do the same with your animal! I know Jason to pay attention to details and he works hard to do well in whatever he decides to do. Tell him what your pet needs, what your expectations are and leave Jason and Henry to do the rest!”
7. Lynda R.
“Lynda has helped look after our poodle. She is a very caring and responsible dog caregiver. She is patient and ensures all of the dogs needs are met. She also has experience caring for dogs that are older and/or have health conditions. I would highly recommend her as a canine caregiver. And we will be requesting her service again in the future.”
8. Stephanie K.
“I have two Golden Bernese Doodles ( Lulu and Coco) and they LOVE Stephanie. She is 100% part of their pack and their official Godmother. You can not get a better person to watch your dog than Stephanie. The care and devotion she puts into the care of animals is exceptional.”
9. Katie S.
“Toby and Misty thoroughly enjoyed being taken care of by Katie and her step son. They spent lots of time outside and played and hung out around the fire. They also spent time with our three chickens. We were thoroughly pleased with Katie's communication and care. My husband and I were able to go on our business trips at ease, knowing that everything and everyone was in great hands. We would happily ask Katie to watch our fur-babies again.”
10. Stefanie U.
“Stefanie is amazing!!! She was reliable, great with dogs and responsible. Will DEFINITELY be using her again. ”
11. Kayla K.
“Kayla took such great care of our three pups over a long weekend away! She updated us all the time and was so patient with our crazy crew. I had such comfort knowing she was there and that means everything while we’re away. Thank you Kayla!”
12. Carlene B.
“Carlene is awesome! She is kind, conscientious, and a great communicator. She sent us photos of our dog each day and she paid close attention to him. We’re so glad we had her as our sitter and will use her again.”
13. Kambree W.
“We had a great experience with our dog. Kambree took the time to come and meet our dogs and get to know them ahead of time. She took excellent care of them while we were away from letting them in and out to feed them, to walking them everyday and giving them love and attention. We received daily updates with pictures and communication regarding our dogs. We truly feel she went above and beyond and would highly recommend her services.”
14. Lydia P.
About: I grew up with intelligent dog breeds. When I was little we had Huskies, and German Shepards. Then In high school I got two Australian Shepards within the span of 2 years, and trained them both. I have since adopted an elderly Australian Shepard, so now I have three dogs. I am a winter sports fan, and an avid hiker, I love the outdoors, and like the cold. I have dog friendly transportation. I am currently a volunteer and the Potsdam Humane Society, and I am in training there to handle reactive dogs. I am a full time student at St. Lawrence University. My schedule is typically very consistent, with exception to around holiday times. I am available from 3:00p.m.-5:00p.m. M and W, 10:30a.m.-5:00p.m. T and Th, 1:00p.m. F, 8:00a.m.-5:00p.m. Sat-Sun for dog walking/hiking. I have grown up handling dogs my entire life. I promise to make your dog feel safe and relaxed, to allow them to get their energy out, and to give your dog the ability to get the exercise they desperately need, while you're away at work.
15. Aladah M.
“Ann is a huge dog lover and I saw her care for her dog’s special medical needs with so much competence. She is experienced at handling dogs of various sizes and with different needs. When I get her to dog-sit for my young rescue, she is very compassionate and attentive to his particular needs. I would trust her with any dog.”
16. Dekoda M.
“Dekoda grew up with animals and has always taken care of her family pets. She is very responsible with making sure they are well taken care of. She has helped me take care of my dogs when I ask her to. I highly recommend booking with Dekoda.”
17. Krystal C.
“Hey there! I have known Krystal for awhile and she is amazing with animals she's deff an animal lover that's for sure lol....she treats pets like her kids”
18. Julia B.
“An easy 5 star review for Julia! She was responsive, on time, kept us updated and most of all she was really good with Tug. We could see right away that she was good with animals at the meet and greet. She was excellent and exceeded our expectations.”
19. Dawson M.
“Dawson is amazing with animals he watched mine several times and did better than anyone else ever had, I would trust him with your animals”
20. Amanda S.
“It’s a pleasure to recommend Amanda to pet parents looking to connect with the right pet caregiver. I have known Amanda for almost 5 years; never have I met a more thoughtful and kind hearted person. She has a genuine love for animals and people. My senior dog (RIP) loved Amanda who showered her with attention, affection and many walks to the local park. Amanda’s one of those people who are so organized and efficient that they accomplish twice as much as I would yet always makes time to say hello with a smile. Hire Amanda, you can rest assured that your pet will be cared for just as you would and will likely have cuddles and belly rubs too.”
