“This is our second time using Cristina and we are just as impressed and thankful for her detailed and loving care as we were the first time around. She handled our older cats incredibly well, and had no issues administering medication. She even fed our bunny while we were gone. Cristina goes above and beyond! We will definitely use her again.”


“Michael has been absolutely wonderful with our doggo! He has such a care and attention to her needs, and even helped out when she got into trouble and got into our pantry lol. We have a reactive dog, and he's been great with taking her for walks and managing her energy and needs safely. We can tell that she is very comfortable with him, and would recommend Micheal to anyone with a furry friend! :)”


“Mersades was always very quick to respond, was flexible with the times I needed, and did an awesome job watching my kitty! The pictures she took were too cute and put me at ease while I was traveling! Definitely recommend her!”


“Laura was pleasant ,considerate, flexible, and followed directions perfectly. She communicated with me through her drop in and made sure Nova was well cared for ( and got her to poop which is a big deal to us 😂). Would highly recommend!”


About: I love walks, movies, reading and hiking - especially with dogs and cats! Looking to give out some belly rubs and help my community take care of their furry family members I work a hybrid work schedule so I have lots of time spent at home and looking to go for some walks! Sometimes I work at a restaurant at night, but I am incredibly flexible. Well Jazzy steals my pillows and my bed, has a set feeding schedule, and expects dog park dates every weekend - so her will is my command lol she gets dog treats whenever she’s a good girl and new dog toys after they get destroyed (which is too often for my pockets - hence a new part time needed).

About: With over 10 years of dedicated pet care experience, I pride myself on providing attentive, personalized care tailored to each furry friend's unique needs. I prioritize safety, companionship, and enriching experiences for every pet under my care, striving to create a bond built on trust and love. I’m currently a full time student & working part-time at a hospital, Working to eventually get into the medical field! Although scheduling at times may be challenging for many of us, I prioritize the well-being of the animals I care for. I allocate specific time slots each day for walks, feeding, playtime, ensuring consistency and reliability. When caring for pets in a client's home, I adapt to their familiar surroundings, maintaining consistency and minimizing stress. Whether in my home or my client's home, my goal is to create a positive and enriching experience for pets, fostering a sense of security, happiness, and well-being.

“Berthie was phenomenal. It was my first time using Rover and I will definitely be using Berthie again. Continuously updated me with pictures and blurbs about how my dog was doing. My dog is adjusting to a new apartment and had been having accidents and Berthie not only updated me on her status, but ensured he would clean up if she had any accidents. I 100% would recommend him to anyone who needs a dog sitter/Walker.”


“Mary was so great with my kitties, especially making friends with Hobbes who doesn't like anyone but me. The photo updates made me smile while I was 3000 miles away spending the longest time I had ever been away from them. I look forward to working with her again because I know they were in the best hands (maybe next time Zoni will say hi).”
