Ashlyn was such a great sitter to my babies . I know they can be a handful sometimes but she was more than able to handle them and treat them like her own . She was great at communicating with us and keeping us updated during there time together. Will most definitely be booking with her again!

Paige is absolutely the best. She stayed in my house for a week and kept my 2 kitties, dog, and hamster fed, loved, walked, etc. She communicated multiple times per day and sent daily cute pictures of each loved animal. She left the house neat and clean even though I didn't leave any instructions to do any of it (washed the bedding she used, vacuumed, cleaned the counters). I highly recommend Paige!

Nancy was amazing with my 5 mini aussies over 2 straight weekends! The dogs felt as if she was a long time friend in no time, they had lots of fun and more thank enough cuddles. I would recommend Nancy to anyone who needs fur baby help.

Shannon took great care of our pets! She sent constant updates which allowed us to have the peace of mind needed on our vacation. When we came home the pets were relaxed and happy! She cleaned up after herself and even cleaned up our patio for us! She was the best! Definitely booking again in the future :)

We rebooked with Celina for our two Great Danes and our small cat after an *amazing* first experience with her visiting our kitty over the winter holidays. She is truly so gifted at what she does, and she’s found the best thing to accentuate those gifts. She *immediately* understood the individual differences, personalities, and love languages of each of our crew. It was so heart-warming to watch!! She is now the *only* person I would trust to watch our babies moving forward, and we are so incredibly lucky she loves and understands our beings just as much as we do!!

Paola was excellent with our senior JRT (14 yo) who takes medication and is severely anxious. She provided continual care, excercise and cuddles to him. It also gave us peace of mind that she is a professional in the veterinary medicine field, that if something were to happen she'd take the appropriate steps to care for our furbaby. He really enjoyed his stay with her. Absolutely wonderful service, if you need to know your pet is in the best hands then Paola is your gal.

As long as I've known Kyle he's been a kind and generous person. He's an animal lover at heart and I would have no problem recommending him to work for Rover. He would be an awesome employee and a great addition to your staff.

Madison is not just a caregiver; she's become family to my pets. Her exceptional care extends to both my younger and older dogs, transforming every walk into an exciting adventure with personalized attention and genuine affection. It's heartwarming to see how much my pets adore Madison; they get genuinely excited every time she visits.

About: I have 3 dogs of my own and have been dog sitting for years. From long-term house stays, to dog park excursions, to simply giving them love and attention, I am experienced in caring for all shapes and sizes of furry friends! I work and go to school part time, but for the most part, my mornings, afternoons, and evenings are open! I can fit in dog walking and drop in visits any time, and am available for house stays on weekends! I have experience in approaching and caring for dogs in a way that does not make them feel threatened in their own space. I will prioritize making sure they are comfortable and loved!

About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was a child, first being my neighbors lab Becky, then more recently a crazy beagle named Turk and his brother Tito who lived to howl. I’ve worked with all types of dogs big and small, puppy to senior. I have experience giving meds, picking up poop and and most any other special needs you may have. I have experience working in dog daycares for years and am a student in the zoo field looking to make animals my full time career. I love all dogs and dachshunds (especially my senior girl Charlie) have my heart.♥️ I miss loving and caring for all my dog friends from the daycare let me love your animals just as much while you’re gone! I also have experience caring for uncommon animals such as reptiles and invertebrates. I have Thursday, Friday, and Saturdays completely free to care for animals. If needed I could also stop by nights after 5pm on the other days. (Sun-Wed) I will make sure to honor all security protocols that you would like me too and am comfortable with ring cameras or whatever else you need to be comfortable while away from your fur baby.
