“We are so thankful to have had Jean take care of our little Biscuits while out of town for 3 nights. We had frequent updates and photos of him while out of town and the house was left in perfect condition! Jean even left clean sheets on the bed and the dishwasher empty which I sooo appreciated. We felt very taken care of.”
“Tiara did a great job with our rambunctious little corgi. She was patient with my nervous communication, kept me updated and left our place super clean. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Murphy absolutely loves Rachel!! She stayed with him over the weekend and it was amazing. She sent updates and pictures of Murphy everyday. I highly recommend Rachel to care for your furbabies!!”
“Cory takes such good care of my fur babies! He is sensitive to which of them is not eating or behaving not as usual and is always diligent about following up with me and keeping me informed. I go home to happy cats and dog! He also does a great job keeping me informed and following up on the rare occasion that someone is ill. He does an awesome job!!”
“Shana was very attentive to Cleo and shared daily pictures. Cleo was well fed and happy when I returned home from my trip. Boarding with her was very easy and I would reccomend.”
“Julia is a great sitter! She gave many detailed updates and great photos of the pets. She left the place very clean and even cleaned up a mess the cat made. Truly appreciate her being able to help on such short notice. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Sophie was better than we could have expected! We have a very anxious, reactive and very active gsp and she was incredible with our pup. She sent us texts and photos throughout the day and kept our house perfectly clean. She is also such a sweet kind person and we feel so lucky to have found her. We will definitely be using her again and again!”
“Flexible, kind and responsive. This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous leaving my grumpy senior dog with a stranger. Madisyn made me feel at ease and was not at all put off by my larger dog or the fact that he's a little needy. Will 100% book again!”
“Claire did a great job looking after our dogs (husky and a mini schnauzer) at our place. She did a meet and greet and asked us all the questions to know the dogs and their behaviours. She was very proactive with sending us updates with pictures. Both the dogs were very comfortable with her. We’re happy we chose her and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Christine was terrific! She was extremely communicative, and sent lots of updates and photos about our pup. She took great care to follow our instructions, and gave our dog lots of attention. Best of all, although we missed our dog, we never worried that he wasn’t doing okay or being well cared for. We would absolutely use her again!”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Linda as my pet and house sitter while I was on vacation, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we first communicated, she was incredibly responsive and friendly, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Linda took exceptional care of my cat, ensuring he was well-fed, entertained, and loved in my absence. It was clear that she has a genuine affection for animals, and my cat was very comfortable with her. Additionally, she maintained my home beautifully, leaving it spotless upon my return. Knowing that my cat and home were in such capable hands allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my vacation. I highly recommend Linda to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Cierra was amazing, not only able to accommodate a last minute meet and greet and day-of booking, but also completely understanding that my dog is a bit of a nervous introvert who likes his space. My dog seemed to warm up to her very quickly though and she kept us updated while we're we were away.. wouldn't hesitate to book again and can't thank her enough!”
“Cassie was wonderful with our pup. She kept in touch with us through the evening and allowed us to have a fun night out without worrying. We would definitely have her sit for us again.”
About: I have been walking my neighbors dog for 3+ years, since they were small puppies. I love hanging out with dogs and find them so energetic and fun I am free on a fairly flexible schedule. I am currently attending Northwest University, so I would have to work around my class times, but I am free most afternoons and mornings. As I am attending college I do not have a place to house pets at my own house, since I am staying in the dorms.
“Sophia was just what we needed! We were gone traveling for over three weeks, and our two kitties do not do well in a kennel. Sophia provided overnight care, food, litter box cleaning, and the love our kitties needed, and brought in our mail, etc. She sent pictures along the way of cuddling and playing kittens, and arrived home to happy and well cared for cats and a clean home. Thanks, Sophia, can't wait to have you stay again. <3”
About: My pet care experience comes from having my own fury four legged family pets and caring for family, friend pets. My experience entails working different personalities, pets in different stages in life and personalized needs of the pet and owner. I have a flexible schedule. My early mornings, my late afternoons and open weekends are available to play, watch and care for your family pets. I like to establish the same routine and provide a comfortable space for the pet and owner. This would include feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and special requirements.
