We had a wonderful, stress-free experience with Samantha during her week-long stay in our home. She took great care of our dog and he was completely himself when we returned. Our home was also well cared for and very clean when we returned. She kept us updated regularly with photos and messages, and we had peace of mind while traveling. Samantha is reliable, trustworthy, friendly, and professional. We would absolutely book her again!

Tabitha is WONDERFUL! My dog is very emotionally needy (has anxiety), and I needed a sitter very last minute. Tabitha came to the rescue and was so attentive with Franny and did such a good job with her! I really trust her and i can’t wait to use her again 🙂

About: Hello pet parents! I’m a recent college graduate and personal trainer with a dream of owning my own pet care services business one day. I’ve owned many dogs throughout my life and have established myself as the extended family dog watcher. I’ve cared for diabetic dogs, anxious dogs, big dogs, and little dogs. No pets attitude or attribute is foreign to me. I know entrusting your dog to a stranger is hard and worrisome but I promise to make the experience as comforting as possible, answer all questions you may have, and build a relationship with all pet parents I meet! I am currently a part-time personal trainer, MMA practitioner, and recent college graduate looking for opportunities to start fulfilling my dream of owning a pet services business. My schedule is fairly flexible, and I can discuss it with pet parents so we can find the perfect fit for both parties. lifestyles. I love spending time with dogs and other household pets so during check-ins, walks, overnight care, medicine administration, exercise, and general attention, it won't just be a box to check to fulfill my obligations to you, but instead be a genuine love and care for all animals' well-being. I have had a wide range of experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, sick dogs, well-trained dogs, less-trained dogs, diabetic dogs, shy cats, affectionate cats, reptiles, birds, etc. No pet care is foreign to me.

Macaroni came to us as a very scared cat with a poor background who ran at the sight of anyone new. She usually stops eating as an initial respomse to stress. Rachel haf her cuddling and eating normally from the moment of her arrival. It was such a relief!

Aryanna took wonderful care of our two kitty boys for a week! They were very happy when we arrived home and we know they were happy while we were gone with the pictures that were taken! Also Aryanna checked in daily with us to let us know everything was going well. The apartment looks the same as we left it, the trash was taken out, and packages were brought up without even asking! If you need a pet sitter Aryanna is the way to go!

Antoinette was exceptional! We recently learned that our dog has a heart condition and we were worried to leave him alone for the weekend. Antoinette communicated with us very regularly, giving updates on when he ate, took his medication and what he was up to throughout the day. She genuinely seemed to care about him, even though they had just met. She went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable leaving him in her care and she left our home in immaculate condition. I highly recommend Antoinette to anyone looking for pet care; we absolutely would book again.

Faith was wonderful with our cat, Bitty! She is 17 with severe kidney disease and requires a lot of extra care and medication. Faith is gentle and kind and gave Bitty all of her meds for us while we were away. She was super communicative and sent us adorable pictures! I recommend Faith to anyone whose critters need a little bit of extra TLC and will continue to trust her with our little fur babies ?

Kerry was amazing! We are very fortunate she was able to house sit for our fur babies. From the beginning of the meet and greet all 5 of our fur babies loved her. It was the first time all 3 cats made an appearance during a meet and greet to say hi! It is very apparent that Kerry loves animals as she took great care of ours and gave them so much love and attention while we were away. She was great sending updates and pictures as well. We will definitely book again and recommend Kerry to anyone else looking for a sitter!

Claudia took such great care of our high energy dog! We knew our Pennie would want some company while we were away cause she is highly social. This is our first time having a sitter and we couldn’t have had a better person- she is now our Pennie’s best friend❤️ thank you for all the love and snuggles. Already planning our next trip and completely at ease with you staying with our sweet pups!

There isn’t anyone else we trust with our senior guy. For him, it’s like having a play day with his best friend. Sometimes, I think RJ likes Samantha better than his own humans.

This is the first time I used Rover. Would definitely use Kerry’s services again. My boys were happy and content when I returned home. So much better than taking them to a kennel for boarding. She kept us updated on their status and sent a lot of pictures.

She did a phenomenal job communicating before, during, and after the stay with pur dogs. Not only that but she did all the things we asked and our dogs weren't stressed or upset by our not being there, just showing how well she interacted with them. We will definitely look to have her help again in the future!
