Brittney has already gained the love of my cats—and Boodoo Elvis is not an easy win. She’s patient and loving with them. I feel stress-free and happy knowing she’s sitting with my girls!

Brandi took such amazing care of our zoo (dog, 2 cats, 4 guinea pigs)! She was an excellent communicator and really went above and beyond to make sure everyone was well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend and will look to book with her in the future!

Melanie was amazing with my cat Penny! She came over for a meet and greet ahead of time and I could tell that my cat bonded with her right away. She sent me great updates while I was away and I didn’t have to worry about my older cat being home alone. Penny needs an inhaler for her asthma and Melanie had no issues doing that for her. I’d gladly hire her again!

Destiny and Ethan immediately put me (and my pup) at ease after meeting them. They checked in on my pup and wore him out enough that he was still sleeping when I got back home! Can’t thank you guys enough!

Rachel was terrific with our pup Hazel! She made she she knew her from the meet and greet, was prompt and let me know when she was on her way. Lots of pictures showed how much snuggle time Hazel got with her. We were able to enjoy the weekend and not worry about Hazel! Highly recommend her.

With three dogs under my roof, including a big, energetic bulldog who demands constant attention and exercise, and two older ladies, finding the right pet caregiver is crucial. Justice was nothing short of perfect for the job. My big, boisterous boy instantly connected with him. Justice not only handled the high energy level like a pro but also gave him the attention and long walks he needed. He made sure all my dogs were well-cared for and happy each time he came over. Justice's dedication to my pets and his ability to manage my lively crew put my mind at ease during my time away. If you have a handful like I do, Justice is the ideal caregiver. Thanks a million, Justice!

Jenna is the ultimate dog lover. She is great with any dog, young or old, big or small. She loves each and every dog the same. Not only does she love dogs, but the feeling is mutual. I know this personally from how much my 3 year old bernedoodle adores Jenna. The minute she walks into my home, his tail is going a mile a minute and he can’t wait to greet her. Jenna is also incredibly responsible. You can rest assured that your dog will be in great hands if spending time with Jenna, and trust me, your dog will love every minute he or she gets to spend with her too!

I booked Jessica & Jeremiah to watch our cat for a week while we were away and they were so wonderful! They sent me daily updates and pictures that were so appreciated since we missed our cat so much. I will definitely be booking them again. Thank you Jessica & Jeremiah for taking such good care of Totoro <3

Juliana was amazing! Highly recommend her. She was very thorough and I loved seeing the rover cards come through. My cat can be a bit of a gremlin, but she managed to keep her fed and medicated. Thanks again!

Allandria is an amazing sitter! We were so nervous to leave our special needs dog Kara with a sitter, but Allandria immediately put us at ease. She is incredibly knowledgeable about dog care, and she took the time to learn all about Kara's specific needs, including her seizures. Allandria sent us daily updates and photos of Kara, and she was always available to answer our questions. We could tell that Kara was well-loved and cared for while she was with Allandria. We would highly recommend Allandria to any pet owner, but especially to those with special needs pets. She is a true gem!
