“Dina was great! We asked her to come over to help us train our pups with greetings because they are normally very shy, but they both took to her immediately. She's clearly a dog person, and our dogs knew it! Thanks again, Dina!”

“Sarah was great with our two dogs! They warmed up to her very quickly. She kept them comfortable and entertained while we were away. It was a perfect first experience for us!”

“Connor has been a please to have care for our dogs. He is on time, responsible and has excellent communication. Super big props for helping us with an emergency overnight house-sitting; above and beyond!”

“Ariel is the best. She took care of my senior kitties without even meeting them and gave them the love and attention as if they were hers. On top of that she watered my outdoor plants and brought all my mail in. I’ve already booked her for another stay with Bugs and Bunny”

“My two cats did great under Kara’s care and her communications were wonderful — lots of pictures. She was willing to do all I asked. Glad I found her profile.”

“Catherine was amazing with my two elderly cats! I have a lot of anxiety about leaving them alone, especially since one of them needs an injected medication with his meals. Catherine was consistently communicative and is clearly a conscientious pet caregiver. Both cats warmed up to her very quickly and were very well taken care of while I was away.”


“Maggie is so wonderful!! She is incredibly communicative and responsive. She sent so pictures, my mom heart was at such ease. Our fur babies absolutely loved her. She spent such quality time with them and is such a quality person. I would definitely use her services again!!”

“Kelli was phenomenal!! She really went the extra mile for my fur babies. She sent plenty of pictures and detailed updates, and my cats loved her. They don’t come out and greet just anyone, but they came out to see her every time she was here. While I was out of the country on vacation, my power went out and Kelli did everything she could to help me get that resolved. It means a lot to know that not only were my cats taken care of and happy, but I could truly rely on Kelli while I was away! I will definitely book with her again :)”

“Olivia was great. She gave the pups all the lovings while I was away. She sent pics and was great at communicating. The pups loved her. Will definitely use again!”

“She was great and took great care of my puppy when I was nervous about leaving her. She was very thorough and sent lots of updates and pictures.”

“Sarah has been the best sitter we’ve ever had! She treated Cash and Junie like they were her own. She gave us great updates every day with pictures. The dogs absolutely loved her and we will be using her again!”

“Kaylee was wonderful to work with! On time and quick to tell me if she wouldn’t be. Professional in her communication and took her time to get to know my dog. She walked my dog and then stayed with her the full 30 minutes. Your pet will love her!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I feel lucky that Morgan visited my puppy. She was very nice, on time, and took great care of my puppy. She also cleaned up his mess, which I really appreciated. Thank you for everything!”

Dax was wonderful. Such a kind young man, friendly, knowledgeable about animals, and I will be booking him from now on. He sent me updates and pictures, just making me feel very secure leaving my fur babies (1 dog and 2 cats) in his hands. And I came home to happy pets. Very grateful for Dax.

Angelee always takes such great care of our cat, Nico. We really appreciate her extra attention to following detailed instructions perfectly and communication of updates to make us more relaxed while we are away. We have booked her many times and hope to again in the future!

Lydia is great! I’ve booked with her a couple times now and will continue to use her in the future! She’s always been flexible with me on dates and times and always takes awesome care of my golden. I always appreciate her thorough updates with lots of photos. Couldn’t recommend her enough!
