Russ H.
“George helped me with my dog Petey for a couple of years before Petey passed away. He went over and above to get to know us and the nuances of our dog. Petey was three footed, so George asked questions regarding duration of walk, speed and what to look for if something went wrong. Petey looked forward to his visits with George and grew to know when George was coming to go on their walks. I WOULD HIGHLY recommend George for your next dog walking/sitting need. He is a 10/10.”

Every time she has watched my dog, I’ve felt completely at ease knowing he’s in such good hands. She takes the time to play, walk, and cuddle, and she always keeps me updated with pictures and messages, which I really appreciate. My dog absolutely adores her—and that says it all!

I’m also a sitter on Rover and wouldn’t trust anyone else to take care of my fur babies the way I know Marley does! My dogs get so excited to see her and she is great at communicating and sending lots of pictures! She is the best!”
Lucas B.
“Lucas B. Would be an exceptional pet sitter/ walker. He is a professional k9 handler and trainer with a nationally known company. His personal dogs are trained in explosive detection. But beyond this he loves animals. He can, by observation, detect what the animals need or what their behavior is expressing. The fact that after working with dogs all day and he still desires to spend time with other pets shows his fondness for dogs. He is compassionate and understanding and has a great work ethic. I recommend him without reservation.”

She was reliable, punctual, observant, patient and always loving. Our Girls simply love walks with Lissa and always came home happy, well-exercised, in good shape and exhausted. . Lissa has the keys to our home and took care of both dog when we were away on holiday. She always did a great job and I never had to worry. She is completely honest and very responsible”

“When I am on vacation Jamie pet sits for me for my 4 animals. She is always reliable and on time. She has since learned how to give my diabetic cat insulin and her willingness to learn and take on whatever they need is unmatched. She always stays extra time to make sure the animals get some human interaction throughout the day. My animals no longer get extremely sad when we leave they look forward to spending the week/weeks with Jamie! I would recommend her to anyone. She is also very trustworthy, friendly, and easy to communicate with!”

Cheyenne R.
“We recently had the pleasure of having Cheyenne Rushlow care for our dog, Felon, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience! Cheyenne went above and beyond in every aspect of her care. From the moment she met Felon, it was clear she has a genuine love for animals. She quickly built a strong bond with him, making him feel comfortable and loved even in our absence. Cheyenne’s attentiveness to Felon’s needs, from his feeding schedule to his daily walks and playtime, was exceptional. She provided us with regular updates and photos, which put our minds at ease and allowed us to enjoy our time away without any worries. Felon was happy, healthy, and well-exercised when we returned, and it was obvious he had been in great hands. Cheyenne's professionalism, reliability, and kindness truly set her apart. We are so grateful to have found someone we can trust completely with our beloved pet. I highly recommend Cheyenne Rushlow to anyone in need of a caring and responsible pet sitter. Felon can't wait to see her again!”
