1. Julia H.

“Julia has been so helpful when my family goes out of town. We have had Julia drop in and walk our dog three times. Each time, she has been on time, communicative, flexible, and trustworthy. She has also been available at the last minute several times. She’s terrific!”


2. Valerie P.
“Valerie is the best! She sends so many pictures and leaves a very detailed Rover card about everything she and Otis did that visit. Highly recommend!”


3. Steven P.

“Steven was such an excellent care giver for our pups while we were out of town! He was attentive to details for care, sent regular messages about each visit, and made sure to share information about how the pups were doing while we were away. Our dogs quickly got comfortable with him, and they looked forward to his drop-ins. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a great dog sitter/walker.”


4. Kayly V.

“Great sitter. Checked in as needed and sent pics!”

8. Emily B.
“Emily is great with pets! She is very attentive and responsible while attending to pets, and their care. Additionally, she likes to spend time with dogs/cats to include taking them on long walks. Would highly recommend her for your pet care services and needs.”


9. Chris D.

“I can’t say enough about how exceptional Chris is as a dog walker and caretaker! I have seven Chihuahuas who tend to be quite timid around new people, but Chris’s calm, patient approach put them at ease right away. I was so surprised. His dedication to making them feel comfortable was evident. In fact, they warmed up to him faster than I’ve ever seen before with anyone else. Chris is reliable, friendly, and has a special gift for connecting with animals. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a true dog lover who genuinely cares about the animals he works with. My dogs are in great hands, and I am so grateful for his wonderful care!”


10. Holli M.

“What can I say? Holli is simply phenomenal! This was our first trip away from the boys and there was some trepidation on our part. We booked Holli for a familiarization visit before our trip. She was outgoing, interactive and all about getting to know Vincent and Jules. We booked 2, hour long visits each day, morning and evening. Holli arrived, took care of the boys, spent time playing with them, ensuring all their needs were met and provided updates and pictures of each visit. Jules is the shyest of the two and it took a couple visits, but he was warming up to her. Thank you Holli! You are superb and we greatly appreciate your taking care of our furry family members. You are our go-to for any and all future Rover needs.”


11. Jaime T.

“Jaime was seriously the BEST. She sent pictures and videos while we were away, and took perfect care of our boys. She is our new go to gal for our pups. She went above and beyond all week to make sure our family was taken care of- us and the dogs. She is so special.”


12. Ligia D.

“Can’t say enough about Ligia! She did an excellent job caring for Loki and Odin while I was on travel. Odin (the alpha) usually fusses and is upset with me when I return from travel. Not this time. They both were less stressed and had a calmer demeanor. Ligia’s daily visits and interactions put them at ease. So thankful and appreciative!”


13. Willow R.
“Willow did a drop-in visit for our puppy Bourbon”


14. Jessica M.

“Jessica was paw-some! I was out of town for Thanksgiving and a work conference and she was able to accomodate both. She also went above and beyond as a sitter. Besides the usual photo/text updates, when my silly kitties made a mess of their litter box, she vacuumed the mess and tidied the guest room. Highly recommended and my kitties give 2 paws up ?”


15. Shelby F.

“Shelby was so super sweet to deal with. She was quick with her responses and took amazing care of our fur babies! 10/10 would always recommend her!”


16. Wendy P.

“My daughter’s service dog had major surgery on his CCL. We always have to be aware of his training so as not to do anything that would damage the bond between my daughter and him. He is sensitive due to his work / seizure alert, balance work, behavior disruption and deep pressure. Since he is 100 pounds, we needed help a couple of times a day. Wendy was amazing. She jumped in to help us get him safely out and back in his first week post surgery - she worked with him with gentleness and sensitivity. Wendy was always there on time. We really appreciated her help and wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. Thank you so much Wendy!”


17. Sara F.

“Sara was great to work with. She was flexible about meeting times, key exchanges, and more. She spent time playing with the cats and sent pictures every day to let us know they were doing well. I'll definitely contact her first when our cats need a sitter.”


18. Collins C.

“Thank you Collins! I have 2 cats that do not like strangers and have issues when strangers are in the house. We did a meet and greet and everything went quite well, they even let him pet them. Perfect care while I was out of town. I would highly recommend Collins would give a 10 star rating. An animal lover and professional!”


19. Dustin T.
“I’ve known Dustin to handle dogs wonderfully. We worked at a local specialty dog store dozens of dogs would visit everyday, some older needing help around, some a little rowdy or anxious needing extra patience. A lot of them stopped in just to see him. My own feisty pitbull takes her sweet time warming up to new people, but she immediately took to him. Now she might even be happier to see him than she is to see me.”


20. Barbara Z.

“The care that Barbara provided to my kitties while I was out of town was exceptional. She sent daily updates and pictures, and gave some pets and cuddles to my little love bug, Twix. I would absolutely use Barbara’s services again in the future.”
