“Rhianna was great! She was flexible and easy to communicate with! She made sure Nitro was well taken care of while we were gone and checked in with me several times throughout the time I was gone.”
2. Christine L.
“Christine is amazing, great communication, and really enjoys what she does!”
3. Janine G.
“Janine was very friendly and she came to meet Wendy the week prior to the visits she would be having with our pup. Wendy was happy to meet her as soon as we let her off the leash. She sent pictures every visit and my Wendy looked very happy. She was responsive if I sent a message and sent me updates as well without being asked. I will definitely book her again in the future if we need another dog sitter!”
4. Brandy D.
“Thank you for taking such great care for the kittos and the house throughout such a rough patch. Knowing you were caring for everyone gave me such relief even with the storm and power outtage. You're the best!”
5. Adrian M.
“Adrian did a great job taking care of our two dogs during his visits on Friday. He was responsible for taking care of them out to the backyard and feeding them, which he handled with care. Adrian was communicative throughout the day, which we really appreciated. Although we would have preferrer getting an update sooner during the second visit, overall, we were pleased with his service. We would recommend him to others looking for a reliable dog sitter.”
6. Karina M.
“The best! I had screwed up some details on our “drop in” appointment and Karina was beyond understanding and flexible to some last minute changes. Great communication and our pets loved her! 100% will book again!”

“Julia is a very responsible and loving pet caregiver. I know this because she watches my pets and she’s the best at what she does. They all love her”
9. Liz D.
“Liz is amazing. She’s great with my cats and has gone above and beyond in an emergency. If she services your area, feel confident and use her! I couldn’t give a higher recommendation.”
10. Coleen T.
“Coleen was so nice! She even came back to take care of my baby 30 minutes after our original time when I’d forgotten to text her the updated code. I would have tipped her more if Rover didn’t have a 30% rule!”
11. Isaiah P.
“Isaiah took care of my cat well for more than a week while we were on vacation. He is very pleasant, polite and easy to work with. He was very accommodating with my requests on caring for my cat. We definitely will hire him again. Thank you Isaiah!!!”

About: PLEASE NOTE: As of March 2, 2020, I will be working remotely out of my home, which means I can give your pup a midday walk if needed. I live in a high rise in a large one bedroom right by the lake which includes some restrictions: - I cannot board dogs that bark often - I cannot board dogs that are more than 50 lbs - The only way up to my unit with a pup is by elevator If your pup is larger or tends to bark a lot, I am happy to watch them at your home! To say I love dogs is an understatement! I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience pet sitting dogs as small as a 6-year-old, 10-pound cockapoo mix to a two-year-old large 80 pound German Pointer. I strive to make your pup's vacation as comfortable as possible for them (and you!). Typically, I will walk a dog three times a day for a total of one hour per day. (If your dog requires more than an hour of walks per day, please let me know as rates may change.) I hope to have the opportunity to make your pup at home while you are away! Please reach out with any questions.
