Andrea is our go-to dog sitter and worth every penny. Our dog takes medication, is now deaf and sometimes goes on walks. Andrea is amazing, sends pictures all the time and makes our vacations relaxing because I don’t have to worry about any issues at home.

I was able to book Troy on short notice, which was very helpful. He was prompt, friendly, and my dog was instantly comfortable with him. I’d definitely recommend Troy and plan to book him again in the future!

Jessica is so kind, fun, and clearly is meant to be around animals in one way or another. My boys were THRILLED to see her every morning. She was helping me out as I’m dealing with cancer - her flexibility and understanding nature helped me trust her in my home and with my boys. Book her!

Chelsie you went above and beyond to make sure my pups were treated with royalty. I have never seen my dogs get so excited to see someone, not even when I get home. Chelsie supplied lots of pictures of the walks and the most detailed summary which was always a pleasure to read. She really cares and extremely thoughtful, would never hesitate to book with her anytime I need help. Thank you so much Chelsie!

About: I’ve been working with pets my whole life, mostly dogs, and I have been trained in dog CPR and I know how to break up dog fights. I am currently working part time, so I have room for multiple animals! I do have 3 dogs of my own and 2 cats and all of them love other dogs. I have 3 friendly dogs that can keep your pup entertained and I can also crate them if needed. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I take all of my dogs out separately and on leash.

Maddie watched my cat for the weekend while I was out of town for a concert. She knew the quirks of my cat and was able to do everything needed to ensure she was taken care of while I was gone.

I wish I could give even more of a tip (rover won't let me give more than 30%), but Monica did an amazing job today. My dog had an accident in the house and she cleaned it up even though she didn't have to. Words cannot describe how awesome Monica is. 12/10 would recommend to anyone.

About: I always grew up with dogs. At my parents house I have 2 huskies that I took care of all the time before I left for college. I have also dog sat for my friends dogs back home all the time too. Now that I am at college I want to help other people out by either simply walking their dog or taking care of them for them. I miss having dogs around. I have taken care of Chihuahuas to pit bulls to huskies. I used to walk my huskies everyday after school and I miss having that in my daily routine. In between classes I plan on getting some dog walks in, after classes I plan on getting some dogs walks in, on the school nights I can watch dogs and on weekends I’ll watch and walk dogs! I may be in an apartment with no yard but if I have a dog over night then I will make sure to take it out plenty of times, take the dog on walks and play with the dog to ensure they get all their energy out and are doing well. I can also crate the dog if necessary or even leave it rooming. I do allow pets on furniture so they can be nice and comfy as well. I don’t have any dogs in my building so no need to worry about other dogs interfering with yours!

Brad was amazing with our dog! He was incredibly conscious and respectful about maintaining any routines and training we had already established with our dog and was great with our sometimes unruly boy! I was very impressed with how communicative he was and took very well composed and extremely cute photos to send us! I would absolutely recommend Brad!

Ash has cared for our elderly dog for the last six months. He is a senior and needs a lot of gentle care and patience, which Ash is always happy to provide. Ash provides in home care for our dog and provides him with his special diet and takes him to the only places he is willing to eat, drink, and potty, due to his blindness. We always know he is in great hands with Ash.
