Helen came on fairly short notice to house and dog sit for a week. The house was perfect when we got back and the my two big golden doodles were very happy. I was so glad we had someone here we could trust.

Wesley was amazing. Kept in contact with us. Took amazing care of our pups. Let us know if any issues. She even got my little old pup to cuddle and that is rare. He really doesn’t like many people! She was amazing and we plan to use her again and again!!

Savannah and Tillie are now besties! Savannah was amazing—she took great care of my Tillie Bean and my home. She sent regular updates, brought in packages as needed, and kept everything clean and well-maintained while I was away. I’ll definitely have her stay at my home and watch Tillie again in the future.

About: Since I was 12, I have been walking a plethora of dogs of varying breeds, ages, and weights, ranging from 15 pounds to 100 pounds. I have also watched many cats, varying in age from a few weeks to 18 years old. I can give medication in food, pill pockets, and pill poppers. My schedule is pretty wide open, as I am free most days from the hours of 9 - 5 to visit your animals and walk dogs! I am very friendly with animals and am pleased to have them in my care during walks and visits. Their safety is always my top concern.

Collette did a great job taking care of our two girls. We got multiple daily photos and small updates on how everyone was doing. They also made the girls comfortable and made them felt like we never left. Collette also made sure our house was clean and tidy before we returned. Highly recommend!

After meeting Helena, I was very comfortable leaving Chewbacca in her care. I didn’t worry at all while I was gone, knowing he was in good hands. While he is cute and small, he has a big personality and isn’t always the easiest dog. She was communicative and sent daily updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact her again for help with Chewbacca.

Steven was amazing! He took such great care of our two cats and our home while away! He sent daily updates and pictures of the cats, which helped us feel even more secure with them in his hands! This was our first time using Rover, and Steven was everything we could have hoped for and more. Would highly recommend Steven to anyone needing a pet and/or home sitter!

We had an excellent experience with Camryn. Her communication was outstanding from start to finish, quick responses, clear updates, and plenty of photos that gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Leaving senior dogs is never easy, but we truly felt comfortable and confident they were in good hands. She was attentive to their needs, patient, and clearly experienced with older dogs (and a mischievous cat). We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups and a smooth overall experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.

Victor was an exceptional guest and a wonderful caretaker for my two dogs. He followed all instructions carefully, maintained great communication while I was away, and most importantly, my dogs absolutely adored him. The house was spotless when I returned! Victor went above and beyond to ensure everything was in order, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets and home were in such capable hands. I would not hesitate to welcome him back again. Highly recommended!

Nikki was just simply the best! She was incredibly attentive, gave frequent updates and pictures (awesome pictures), and checked in often which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We never once worried about our dogs or our home. She kept everything clean and tidy, and truly went above and beyond in every way. One of our dogs is very shy around new people, and she was so patient and kind that he completely warmed up to her. It was clear she genuinely cared for them like they were her own. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter!
