Sherri was amazing!! She brought toys to play with my babies, sent the cutest pictures everyday, and she cleaned up after them. I felt very at ease on my trip knowing she was watching them. I will definitely continue to book with her in the future.

Trevor did an excellent job of caring for my two shy 11 year old cats. The daily photos and comments were very reassuring. Trevor's demeanor and experience were evident at our meet and greet prior to the drop in visits. Much nicer for the cats than a boarding kennel. I was quite pleased with Trevor and Rover. I recommend both and will use them again.

Amanda was amazing! She was very prompt and communicative. She took very good care of my babies while we were gone as if they were her own, being very in tune to the medicine needs of one of them. I would fully trust Amanda to watch them again in a heartbeat. Thank you Amanda!

About: I have raised dogs since I was 10 years old. I have had various breeds from poodles to pit bulls. I cared for family member dogs when they were away. This is how I earned my allowance as a young child and teenager. Currently I have a 1yr. old red moyen poodle. I am totally in love w/my Ruby girl.We have gone tru much training together. My last dog Gigi lived to 17 yrs. and had some Med. issues at the of life, so equiped to deal w/senior dogs as well.precious I am now retired so I have plenty of free time. Ruby has standing dates every Saturday @Dog Park, plus we go on walks and have play-time with her many toys.Your dogs will be welcome to join in as much, or as little as they like. Ruby knows all on leash commands and is also crate-trained, but does not stay in one while at home. It would be available should your dog need it. Dogs are allowed on the furn. and on the bed, as this is where we cuddle & get kisses. My home is dog friendly in all ways, Ruby has a special fenced-in backyard just for her & playmates.Your dogs will LOVE-IT HERE !!!

Cheryl was amazing caring for our dogs. This was the first time we had left them for more than a short time and she was awesome. Cared so much for our senior frenchie and our chiweenie. Sent tons of pictures and communication on how they were doing. Gave us peace of mind knowing she was dropping in on them. Went above and beyond when they were not eating and getting my girl to take her meds. She is the best!!!!

Amanda did an excellent job! She responded promptly when I first reached out. She was very thorough with her questions when she came to visit, and the other great reviews on her page gave me lots of confidence for working with her. I usually hire my friends, some of whom have never watched a cat before and do an okay job, so hiring Amanda was very refreshing and money well spent. She left very thorough rover cards after each visit with many pictures. One thing that really stood out to me was how careful she was when opening/closing/locking the door. My biggest fear is my cat getting outside (even though it has never happened), and I have a camera on my door. I could see her carefully scanning the area by the door when opening/closing it, and she also jiggled the door handle after locking to ensure that it was secure. In the past, I've had to remind my friends to do that and leave notes for them by the door, but Amanda made sure to do it unprompted, so that really demonstrated how responsible and serious she is about her job.

About: We have experience working in dog daycares and have been doing dog care in and outside our home for the past 3 years. We love dogs and pride ourselves on giving them the family experience. We follow all owners rules while they are in our care but they will be treated like our pets, members of our family. We have a large fenced in yard and are experienced keeping active dogs entertained and properly exercised. We currently have 4 rescue dogs. We have a large house, climate controlled dog care building and multi-fenced yard so if your dog doesn't like other dogs, keeping them separated is not a problem. We are almost always available and can be flexible with your schedule and needs. We are able to take last minute requests for any services offered. We have an acre and live in a quiet neighborhood. We love walking dogs, playing fetch and tug a war. Your dogs will get lots of love under my care.

Kyle was awesome for us. She did numerous drop in visits over Christmas break. Was at the house when she said every time and stayed the full 30 minutes. She made sure they were outside playing the entire time too. We asked her while we were gone if she could make a few more visits than we had originally planned and she was more than willing to accommodate our needs. We were very greatful for her help and will definitely use her again in the future if she is available. The dogs loved her from the second she walked in. Couldn't be more pleased!

Gabriela did an amazing job watching my dog, Max. He can be a bit anxious at first but warmed up to her quickly. I felt very comfortable leaving her in charge of him and will definitely reach out to her for visits in the future. She kept me well updated and took such great care of him. Would highly recommend!

About: Hi! My name is Isabel and I truly love animals. I have several years of experience caring for pets for friends and family and I treat every dog like part of my own family. I provide a safe, calm and loving environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy walking, playing and giving dogs the attention they deserve. I always send photos and updates so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness and comfort are always my priority. During the week I am available in the mornings and early afternoons (8 AM – 4:30 PM). I attend classes from 5:30 PM to 8:15 PM, but I am available again in the evenings after that if needed. On weekends I have more flexibility and can work mornings or afternoons. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. When I stay in a pet owner’s home, I follow their routines and instructions carefully to keep their pets relaxed and happy. I treat every pet with patience, love, and respect, just like they were my own.

Emma came to take our dogs out while we were away for the day. She sent pics both times, one of which is my new favorite picture of Ollie. We will not hesitate to book Emma again.

Stacey took care of my kitty, Olivia, while I was away for family summer travels. Her detailed and fun visit notes and photos gave me peace of mind, so I could fully enjoy my vacation. Olivia gives two paws up 🐾 for the excellent care she received.

Nakisha was so nice and easy to work with! I reached out to her last minute on a holiday weekend and she was able to take the booking and schedule a meet-and-greet all within a short time frame. While we were gone, she updated us every day with pictures and description of our cat’s attitude/well being. I felt completely at ease with her handling the care of our cat and will definitely be using her from here on out!! Hiring Nakisha is a blessing for your pet care

Kyra did an amazing job caring for my high energy senior, Zelda while I went away for a few days. She sent update pics and videos each drop in visit she did. Would recommend Kyra 10/10! Very sweet and apparent she is a dog lover like me. Just to give some background, I’ve been a professional dog trainer since 2007 and I’m particular about how my dog is cared for and Kyra met my expectations 😊
