“Outstanding. That’s one word I can use to describe Josh. I have two dogs. One is very old, 13. I’m always worried about my golden retriever when I’m away. Josh sent me pictures that reassured me that the older dog was OK daily. He also vacuumed up dog hair, which was a pleasant surprise to come home too. The daily walks and the daily visits are priceless. Thank you Josh!! If you’re looking for a dog sitter, or a realtor Josh is your man. Very pleasant demeanor and very organized. With this type of work ethic, you can’t go wrong with Josh. Thanks again from my family! Tk”


“Lindsey is the BEST! She watched our cat and dog when we went away for a long weekend on such short notice. And she is very fairly priced and super responsive. She was able to come the day before so I could show her around. And she listened to everything I said, asked questions, and the pets loved her! She did a great job and went absolutely above and beyond! The amazing pics she took of our animals every visit was an added bonus to make us feel confident that we were in great hands. Do not hesitate to hire Lindsey to watch your pets! It’s always nerve wrecking to have someone watch your pets while you’re away. But you are in the best hands with Lindsey!! We will definitely use her again!”


“Angela is a great dog sitter, she was friendly and patient with our dogs, and spent time playing with them when we were away! She listen to our instructions and took really good care of our buys. We highly recommend her!”


“Richard is a good person and is very good with pets. I appreciate the fact that he was available in short notice to assist us in a pinch with our pet. I would recommend Richard for those in his service area.”


“Leah was fantastic! She kept our cats very well cared for while we were away. She gave great updates every day and we could see how our very shy cats warmed up to her in each one!”


“Melissa came to meet Loki and learn all about him before his first walk. He had a great first walk with her and we are so grateful to have found someone reliable and caring to walk Loki!”


“Thank you so much! We will definitely be using Clarissa again. She was great and helped clean up a mess our cats made. She’s very responsive and made our first experience with a sitter a good one!”


“I had to take a trip to visit my family. Many unforeseen issues came up and not once did I worry about my fur baby in Colby’s care. I will always use her, she’s nothing but the best!”


“Wish I could give MORE stars for Brady, she earned them! Our neighbor was watching our dog when needed, but moved away! I found Brady here and especially for her “older dog experience”, our dog was 15 years old! Brady came on the evenings I was working to give our dog, Bucca, a potty break! She would spend extra time with petting, treats, and TLC each time! Unfortunately our dog stopped eating and finding our steps difficult to climb up and down! Brady was there on the last evening before we euthanized our dog and she gave her extra special TLC for an extra time! I absolutely HIGHLY RECOMMEND anyone to hire Brady to provide care for your pets whenever needed! When we get a new dog, she will be the first person that we will contact with our news!! Thank you Brady! For the short time you knew our dog, you became a GREAT FRIEND for her! God bless you!!”


About: I have experience with big and small dogs, including seniors and dogs with anxiety and special needs. I know each dog is different and will make sure your pup has their needs met! I’m very attentive and diligent and will take care to follow any specific instructions you have. I communicate a lot and tend to give plenty of updates. I currently have no pets of my own but I used to have a large dog and learned a lot through experience and working with multiple trainers during that time. I’m very available to sit or walk as needed right now as I’m taking a break from my corporate job to explore other paths. Willing to be flexible! I have no other pets or dependents so I will be fully dedicated to your pup. I always keep safety first especially as a former reactive dog owner, and I will always be respectful of your property.

About: I have had dogs all of my life and I see them as a part of my family. I love other people's dogs as well and am reliable and caring. I am retired and have lots of free time!! I look forward to helping you care for your beloved dog(s) while you are away!! Thanks!! I will care for your pets and treat your home like my own which is clean and tidy. I will respect you home as well.

Catherine M.
“Cat has watched my dog, Oscar, numerous times, and she does such an amazing job. Oscar’s anxiety from me leaving him is much less apparent when Cat watches him. When I get home from a trip, he’s not as anxious. He also squeals with happiness when she comes through the door. It’s so sweet, and it’s such a relief to know that he’s so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Cat for your fur child :)”

Glen Afton And Island pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jen did a wonderful job of taking care of a cat who is afraid of people and hides whenever the doorbell rings or someone comes in. Bella also needed medication while I was gone so I had to confine her to a specific room and Jen handled keeping her from escaping as well. I don't think Bella was won over, but Jen was the best possible caregiver for her because she's calm and quiet. I'm grateful for the level of care and caring Bella received and I'd hire Jen again in a heartbeat.

This was my second time using Ashley and she was just as amazing as the first. She truly cares about dogs and always goes above and beyond. She was reliable, communicative, and gave each of my three dogs so much love and attention. I came home to happy relaxed pups and a clean space. I completely trust her and will definitely book her again. Highly recommend.

Emily is an absolute joy! She communicates quickly and when she met our dog Rocco it was crystal clear she was highly experienced with approaching and working with dogs. She arrived on time and kept us informed of how Rocco did on his walks. Will absolutely book again!!
