“Julie is the best. She took very good care of our senior dogs, particularly when one was very ill. She understands dog behavior and how to deal with various dog personalities, which is comforting when you are leaving your loved ones with others. My dog gets very excited when she arrives. She had a big heart, and I could not recommend her more.”

About: I’ve had pets for most of my life. I’ve had a cat for the last 7 years and I recently got a puppy in October. I have experience giving cats and dogs medication as well as cleaning up after them. I love using Rover and wanted to return the favor. I work full time but I get Winter, Fall, and Spring Breaks. I’ll mainly be available on the weekends but during the summer and winter I will also be available on Fridays and also around some holidays. I have a puppy who loves new friends and is good with every dog he has met so far. I have a park right behind my house so it is easy to give your dog some exercise. If I’m in your home I’ll be sure to stick to your rules.

It is comforting to know Millie is safe whenever my husband and I go out of town. Millie tackles Elizabeth with love every time she sees her because of how excited she is. I highly recommend Elizabeth to take care of anyone’s pets.”

17. Kim V.
“I set up a meet and greet with Kim and my puppers, Brin. She was returning from a trip and she was probably jet-lagged, but I would have never known. She was nice and we had a great walk together, as I filled her in on Brin and took her to our local park to show her the trails. Kim's schedule is flexible and that is a good fit for us. I will be using Kim's services in the future.”

19. Lei S.
“To whom it may concern, I'm writing this from the heart for my dear friend Sally Sha, who’s not only one of my best friends but also a true natural when it comes to caring for pets! I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Sally for over 5 years, and one thing that stands out above all else is her undeniable love for animals. It’s honestly amazing to watch how cats and dogs seem to be drawn to her wherever she goes. Whether she’s taking a stroll around the neighborhood or just hanging out at a friend’s place, animals just seem to know they’re in good company. She’s got this unique, almost magical connection with them that’s hard to put into words but so easy to notice. From coaxing out a shy pup to getting even the most aloof kitten to play, she just gets them and knows exactly how to make them feel safe and loved. If you’re looking for someone who’s got the perfect mix of kindness, patience, and that special touch with pets, Sally is your person. Trust me, your furry friends will be in the best hands with her.”
