“Isabelle and Zachary took our dog Shea. I’m very short notice because we had to attend a funeral. She felt very welcome and went on a nice long walk with Isabelle and the other dogs. She seemed to settle in right away with everything and felt very comfortable. I was a bit late in returning from the funeral and the they were very gracious about it. We will be sure to trust Shea here when we return to this area. Awesome experience!”


“Karen was a great dog sitter for our little guy. She sent photo updates, was kind, & we knew our dog was in good hands. We would definitely book with Karen again. Thank you.”


“Erica, Thomas and the kids were great with Lenny. When I went to pick him up, he looked happy and was definitely tired from a full day of fun. Erica was very flexible with drop off time, I had to drop Lenny off really early to leave for work, and I also had to book his stay last minute, and they were able to accommodate it. I received photos and updates from Lenny all day during his stay. Lenny will definitely stay with Erica and her family again.”


“Thankful that Nala was able to watch my pup for a short time on short notice. Since it was a short time, I didn't get updates but Nala took my pup out for a short walk and gave me a good summary on pick up.”

“Lourdes “Luli” was a stellar and responsive caretaker of my 8 mo, high-energy Australian Shepherd puppy. I was a bit nervous to be her first Rover client, but felt immediate comfort on the meet and greet. She and her delightful, well-behaved pup, Tito, were exemplary hosts. She took all my concerns in stride and made sure that my puppy had a safe, enriching and engaging experience. She sent lots of photos documenting his play and nap time with his new buddy. Luli was flexible about the drop off when my schedule unexpectedly changed and was always quick to return texts. My dog came back happy and relaxed and literally pulled me to her doorway each day of our stay. Her home was immaculate and puppy safe, with a small secure, enclosed yard for play. I have nothing but the highest regard for Luli, and her professionalism and warmth towards both me and my dog! She clearly is a dog whisperer and my dog, very attached to us, but eager to be left with Luli, confirms this. I have no reservations about emphatically recommending her!”


“Molly has severe separation anxiety and can’t be left alone, which limits what we can do during the week. We have been looking for someone to watch her regularly for church on Sundays though and I’m so glad we found Madelyn! We drop Molly off in the morning and pick her up a few hours later and we know she’s in good hands. Madelyn provides prompt communication and takes good care of our girl!”


“Olivia was amazing with our Kona .she kept us updated enough to put us at ease and it was awesome to see our dog( who has seperation anxiety ) totally having the time of her life.we will absolutely be rebooking with her consistently.”


“Our labradoodle Bella loved spending the day with Bethany, her adorable son, and Ferbie! Bethany was easy to communicate with and kept me updated that Bella was having a great day! We will definitely be using her for all our doggy daycare needs! ♥️”


“Anthony is amazing! From the moment we met, his kindness and dependability immediately put me at ease. He took such great care of my furbabies, and they absolutely loved their time with him—they came back to me happy and completely tuckered out! It’s so reassuring to know they were safe and cared for just as I would have done myself. Finding Anthony has been a blessing—he’s truly a gem, and I’ll definitely be using his services again and again!”


About: I’ve had my own cats and dogs for about 30+ years and have even fostered dogs in GA, in the past. I have always had larger breed dogs, and currently have my cane corso, Stella, whom I’ve trained entirely myself. I had a bull mastiff, Grunt, from the time my brother passed away in 2015, until Grunt went to heaven to join him again in June of 2023. And even before Grunt, I had another cane corso, Roxy, and before her were mostly pitties. It’s very easy for me to be an amazing pack leader as I am a natural born leader and fall into the roll with ease. I believe in finding a way to communicate with our animals by paying close attention to their queues that they give. And when I say that I’ve never met an animal that I didn’t love, I mean it! Spending my time with them, is something I consider a blessing and an honor, and I truly treat every one like they are my own. I have owned a cleaning company for the last 5 years and I have had a few clients ask me to care for their pets. I decided that since my favorite part of some of my cleaning jobs was playing with people’s pets, that I’d rather transition to doing that full time instead! I can’t physically clean houses forever, but I’ll always be able to love on pets! My schedule is extremely flexible because I have and run my own business At my home, I have a very large, fenced in, yard with camera coverage both inside and outdoors. And as I’ve had my cleaning business for over 5 years, I have lots of people who trust me with their homes and their pets. Many clients have told me just how good it makes them feel knowing that they can truly, trust, and rely on me. I treat every job as tho it’s my own home or pet, and I’m great under pressure. If something happens, I am a problem solver.

Karen had a very warm and patient demeanor. While I attended a wedding, Karen updated me with photos of my beagle and was always responsive to my texts when I asked how my dog was doing. Chloe appeared very content and rested when I picked her up. Karen also gave me a gift bag with a framed photo of my dog with treats. Thanks again for taking such good care of my dog.
