When they say it takes a village to raise a child, well I think that can apply to your dog too. I am thankful to have Moises as part of my village. I adopted a rescue dog "Mina" and needed doggie day care for the days I had to go into the office. I met with Moises and instantly felt that he was the one for her. Mina struggles with anxiety so I knew I needed to partner with someone that understood how to help her. Not only do I get the benefit of having a safe place for her to go and be cared for, but Moises is also helping her to work through her struggles. In addition, he provides me with great advice and encouragement, which means a lot to me. Thank you, Moises!

Greg took wonderful care of our elderly dog, Maggie. This was Maggie's first time with a sitter and as a senior dog who requires special care, Greg made her comfortable and happy...sending us snapshots of their day :) Would highly recommend.

Our dog, Tillie, had fun at Maira's. She was happy when we picked her up, and tired out when we got home (just what we wanted for her!) Maira is a sweet, kind person, and we look forward to having Tillie stay with her again.

Shelby and Dalton are the best! They are so responsive and accommodating!! Literally lifesavers, I work really long hours and my husband, who usually watches our dog during the day, had to travel for work last minute. Shelby and Dalton agreed to watch my pup on one of my long days and were so understanding and flexible when I had to pick her up later in the evening - truly I don’t know what I would’ve done without them! They treated her as if she were their own and she LOVED playing with their sweet pup and cuddling with one of the cats, and I got lots of updates and pictures throughout the day. I couldn’t recommend them enough, I will definitely be taking her back to hangout and play with her new best friends!

My pup, Bingo, seemed to enjoy staying at Kathleen’s home. I would recommend her sitting service to anyone who would ask. This was a spur of the moment need and she was able to accommodate us with no problem. She even took my pup to a festival being held in our community. I will certainly use her services again.

I highly recommend Catalina if you need someone to take care of your pet. She is dedicated, compassionate, and understanding towards animals. If you want someone who will treat your pet with love, then Catalina on Rover.com is the right person for you. I recently booked Catalina for doggy day care on Rover.com when I was in town. Even though I arranged it at the last minute, Catalina was a lifesaver for my 12-year-old Miniature American Eskimo, Nimbus, who has slight separation anxiety. Catalina was very friendly and welcoming from the beginning, which helped me and Nimbus feel at ease. Even though I forgot to bring Nimbus's toys, Catalina took care of her well during the seven hours she was with her. Catalina went above and beyond to make sure Nimbus was comfortable. Nimbus was given specific treats that I provided, brushed, and walked. It was clear that Catalina cared for Nimbus and was aware of her anxiety. Catalina was also mindful of Nimbus's behavior. Nimbus is not good with other dogs and has a tendency to chase cats. Catalina kept Nimbus in a safe and comfortable environment and made sure she was away from anything that could distress her. This shows how much Catalina tailors her care to each pet's specific needs. Catalina's ability to adapt to Nimbus's specific needs proves why I highly recommend her services on Rover.com.

I have to say what a gift to yourselves AND your pet to have Amber in your lives! As an owner/parent of my well-loved pets, I truly can take a deep breath to knowing that she'll keep my fur babies, all fur babies safe. But not only safe, they'll be loved, cared for whether a young pup or one in their very senior moments needing extra care. Amber finds a joy in life that she shares with those around her whether human or animal. She doesn't sit and watch life go by. She looks for & finds the beauty in living, exploring & savoring the beauty in nature, and all living beings. My heart feels lighter knowing that Amber can walk/watch or just spend time with your pet(s) or my pets. They'll be safe, secure & looking forward to their time with her.

From the moment I met Alanna and her family I felt immediate comforting and nurturing energy from her and her family. The most recent visit I mentioned to Alanna that midnight and I had a very stressful week and that she needed a lot of love as I had failed her to keep her in a calm environment. The following morning she called me to inform me that she noticed worms in Midnight's stool. I was extremely worried and ashamed about the situation. I truly appreciate her gentle approach to the emergency. It's moments like this that are truly valuable. Thank you Alanna ? I know that Midnight is in outstanding and in the most caring hands with you and your family. ?

Laura cared for my kitty for 3 months while I was traveling, and she did a wonderful job. When I got home, my kitty was happy and healthy and she has clearly been spoiled rotten with toys and cuddles. I will always trust Laura to take care of my fuzzy babies. She is such an animal lover and does a great job with them.
