Chris was wonderful with our older dog and so patient with her older dog issues. We almost never leave her with sitters but felt 100% comfortable having her with Chris. Thank you!!

Maria was wonderful caring for my 21 year-old cat. She scheduled a meet & greet a couple of weeks beforehand, and was right on time the day of cat-sitting. She sent photos of him and texted me about how he was doing. I was nervous about leaving him for five hours, but Maria put me at ease immediately when I met her. She is caring, compassionate, responsible, and Jesse like her. I highly recommend Maria for pet care.

Jonathan, is an amazing dog dad! He has had many different breeds under his care throughout his life. I trust him with my dog any time I am out of town or unable to take my pup for a walk. He will ensure your dog is taken care of to the highest degree. Affectionate, responsive, and attentive are all qualities that make him my trusted dog sitter and walker when I am in need!

Maria was wonderful and professional! She sat for our 8.5month old puppy over a holiday weekend and I felt he was in great hands the entire time. She sent regular updates with great photos of our boy included and he seemed happy and healthy when we returned home. We would love to use her again in the future!

Julia is responsible, considerate, and respectful. She often cared for my three dogs and assortment of rodents throughout the years. When I was out of town, she socialized with my bunny and guinea pigs as well as walked my dogs multiple times a day. She considers all the basic necessities a four-legged family member needs. Julia gave all my animals attention, gentle touch, and play time. She is trained in dog-obedience and knows how to take command of the leash. She is strong and cautious. She walks my dogs thoroughly and safely. Her actions prove that she is a natural at caring for pets.

Discovering Stephen on Rover was one of the luckiest things that has ever happened to our family. An unexpected tragedy this August left our two geriatric dogs, a 100lb German Shepherd and 180lb English Mastiff, suddenly alone in a big house with no one to care for them. The situation was dire, and the job description was complex, but when Stephen stepped up to the plate, he did not miss a beat. From managing lengthy supplement and medicine regimens, to vet visit transport, to accommodating special needs and demanding overnight/early morning schedules, Stephen generously went above and beyond the call of duty time and time again. He prioritized loving and respecting our beautiful doggies above all aspects of the job, and they needed a lot of love! It’s hard to overstate Stephen’s professionalism, trustworthiness, and genuine good humor, even in challenging situations. He has a gift for this work. Your pets will love him and you will too!

Grace was attentive, friendly, professional, and thorough in her review and care for our animals (two cats and an oddball dog). She was quick to reply and clearly took the task of watching over our "kids" with a lot of care. I would highly recommend Grace for anyone's pet care needs.
