“We have a reactive and shy dog, and because of this we have never left him with a sitter. We decided to give Rover a try and that is where we met Shylina. She did an amazing job. She took a shy dog that wanted nothing to do with her at the beginning, to a dog that wanted to cuddle with her in bed at night. We highly recommend Shylina. We will definitely use her again.”
“Janet is very helpful!! We had a couple of last minute times when we needed someone to come by for a feeding & potty break and she jumped right in. Also made a point to meet Bosun in advance so that she was prepared for when these sort of things to pop up.”
“Desiree was GREAT with my pups. They can be kinda needy, but when I got home, I knew they had gotten all the belly rubs and butt scratches. Wouldn’t hesitate with Desiree, she’s awesome!”
“We came home to a happy puppy! Emma keep up with our Murphy. He was a sleepy boy so we know they must have played hard. Emma was an excellent dog sitter. We will definitely use Emma again. 10/10.”

“Abbey & Joe were great. We appreciated that they always responded to messages very quickly and after meeting both of them during the pre-care meet & greet, we felt confident our dog & home would be in good hands. We will definitely reach out to them again.”
“Jessica stayed at our house and took care of our dog, Destiny, while we were out of town for a week. She went above and beyond in every way possible. It is a leap of faith to trust someone with not only your pet, but also your house, and Jessica did not let us down in the slightest. She kept us updated with pictures and videos and was a great communicator. She left the house incredibly tidy and even stripped the bed and replaced some groceries -truly an incredible person. We could tell Destiny had a great time too! We are so grateful to have found Jessica and will continue to request her as our sitter when we go out of town. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars, truly an exceptional sitter!!”
