Jornelle has been watching our pups for 2-3yrs now and we (and they!) are always glad when she stays for a visit. She is reliable and caring and so sweet with our dogs. Certainly won’t be the last time she watches them!!

Amanda was wonderful with our pets! She took great care of our dog and cats in our home and even agreed to take care of my brothers dog at the last minute. My brothers dog can be temperamental, so I felt bad but she was patient and gentle and willing to deal with his “quirks.” She also kept us informed and was honest. We would definitely hire her again!

Gordon’s looked after my dog and cat twice now. He’s great. Quick communicator, flexible and gives my pets lots of care and attention - they’re both very fond of him.

Christine did a fantastic job watching my and my parents dogs for the day. Our dog is a chill little senior dog, but my parents dogs are big Weimaraners. One of their dogs tends to be reactive with other dogs, and even with that challenge, Christine kept all the dogs happy and relaxed while we were out. We especially love that she gave us updates and photos throughout the day, so we knew we didn’t have to worry about anything.

Ariel’s been an absolute legendary pet sitter and owner. She has ample experience with elderly dogs and has given them so much love and attention. Even as a sitter, she made sure my dog’s needs were met, especially with my dogs poor joints and introverted nature.

Matthew has taken care of my cats in the past and I was never worried about them! He ensured they were safe, cared for, and gave them lots of love. My cats are hard to please so I knew he was the best when he would leave and they would wander the halls meowing and looking for him. I have also recommended Matt to friends for dog walking! My friends have expressed great gratitude in my recommendation of him and have called him a life-saver and great fur buddy on different occasions. You can tell he is really good with animals just by how happy they are to see him.

About: I started doing this for a friend that was going on vacation. I spoil Molly & treat her like I want mine to be care. I do this as a part time, I work from home, have my own routine. Like to be call three days in advance before you need my service. I don’t bring pet to my house, I believe is better not taking them out of their homes. I always treat them great. They are my baby pets.

Great with our dog. Our dog takes a while to warm up to new people and Jamia was patient and calm. She did a great job dog sitting for the weekend. She is reliable and communicative. Would highly recommend.

About: For as long as I could remember I always had a gravitational pull to dogs. I have been caring for a dog practically since I was born whether it was a dog of a family or friend or even my own. My family and I first became dog owner ourselves when I was 6 for a couple months. We then cared for another dog when I was 10 for almost 8 years til his unfortunate passing. Then we were blessed with another dog that we now have had for 7 years and still care for today. I am hoping to spread my love and care to other dogs for other dog owners as well. As of right now, I currently have open availability due to working other part-time jobs that gives me the flexibility to expand my horizons in other occupations. I am committed to tend to any and every dog by making sure he has a sustainable amount of food and water every couple hours throughout the day. I also make sure to walk him at least twice a day or more. I am of course open to any instructions given by dog owner and will abide by any rules necessary.

Jessica was great! They took fantastic care of our dog and our house while we were out of town. Very responsive for the meet and greet and our dog (2.5 years old) took to them right away. Good communication with regular updates, no complaints, would happily have them take care of our sweet boy again!

About: I’ve always had love for dogs . My first job was in a a dog daycare for 4 years watching over groups and cleaning which I learned a lot about different breeds and dog behavior I also handled medications and make sure dogs were fed/hydrated and in well care at all times . I’m sure that I am capable of handling all type of breeds and dogs with any type of behaviors . I listen wisely to directions and also very communicative . I know how people are with their little babies (dogs) cuz I have 2 of my own aswell that I care for . Currently I have open availability so I’m able to be committed to rover to meet your needs. I’m able to pick up large amount of hours and care for all the pups that are in need of a care provider. The way I would care for the pups will be having allowing the pup to feel free as possible. I’m very playful myself and love nature we would have the best walks but of course with safety protocols. I also will make sure clients house will stay clean from the pups and clean up after the dog if needed . I treat dogs like they’re children and part of the family.
