“Rachel was amazing with our old pup! She let us know how he did during the day, when he ate, and anything to follow up on when we returned. She was thoughtful and adapted to his quirks. Our house was well taken care of and we felt all was safe and sound while gone. She is truly caring and understanding with senior dogs.”
“Paige was amazing!!! She took such great care of Bella and went the extra mile when Bella wasn’t eating to figure out how to get her to eat a little and to check in with us. She sent us updates and pictures. I can’t tell you how awesome it was to know our baby was in good hands and being spoiled while we were away !!”
“Kaelin was wonderful with our 3 special needs cats. She sent me updates every day, bonded with our skittish girl, and left the house in good order! We will absolutely be keeping her in mind for future trips!”
“Megan is great! Super dependable, easy to communicate with, and my dogs love her! She's done a few multi-day stays with my two hounds and they always seem calm and happy when I return.”
“Kelly did such a wonderful job watching our dog! He seemed so happy when we got back from our trip. She sent lots of cute pictures and I would definitely recommend her!”
“Phoebe and Karma had the best time. Marlee was quick setting everything up and communicative throughout the stay. She took photos and my animals were happy. My animals are both high energy and she took great care of them with walks and playing with their toys.”
“Brittany was so amazing with our puppy. It was our first time leaving him and she made us feel so assured and worry free! She provided great care and sent many updates with pictures/video. I highly recommend her and can’t wait to have her again:)”
“What can I say about Pat? She is amazing! Over the summer we needed to find someone to watch our dog at our place for two weeks in October. Not a small request trusting someone you don’t know. We asked to meet her prior to the booking and within minutes of meeting her, we knew she was the one. She is kind, personable, FUNNY and follows all the rules set forth by Rover and even our small requests. Our pup absolutely loves her as much as we do. We got updates, videos and photos every day which showed our little girl really enjoying herself not to mention looking relaxed. A relief for our minds being 1000s of miles away. After a long vacation, we returned to a house just as we left it, clean and tidy, with even a nice little note, flowers and candy welcoming us home on our kitchen counter. What a nice and sweet touch Pat! ❤️ For this review, when we needed someone for the day, there was no one else but Pat for us. She notified us when she arrived on time and got cute pics throughout the day during play and nap times. I hate to share the secret how great Pat is, we want her all to ourselves! She is now part of our pup family. We love her, you will too.”
“Christal was absolutely amazing with my puppy! I felt so safe leaving my new puppy for the first time with her. Great at sending updates and pics which I appreciate! And she was super flexible when my travel plans got delayed. 10/10 would recommend :)”
About: I have been a vet assistant, I’ve worked with horses, cats, dogs, birds, lizards, and snakes. I always go the extra mile and believe that pets deserve the very best. I uber full time so I’m very flexible with your needs. If your cat needs more time to adjust, I will give them that. Cats are beautiful, kind and sweet, and I can’t wait to meet yours! I take care of your babies as if they were mine, I will give them love and attention with boundaries. I specialize in difficult cases. If your pet needs a little extra time and attention that’s no problem.
About: I have a 6 year old Australian Shepherd who is very high energy. I love walking him or running with him around the neighborhood everyday. I also walk other dogs of various breeds in my spare time (German Shepards, huskies, beagles, boxers). I currently work Monday-Thursday, around 10 hours a day. I walk a lot in the evening or early morning during the summer because of the pavement heat. I’m typically open for anytime Friday-Sunday! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for fetch, running, and playing, and a 6 year old Australian Shepard who loves playing with other dogs. I have a 3 year old daughter, so I do ask for you to let me know if your pet is good around kids.
“Madison was great! She took care of our dog, rabbit, and fish tanks for a week in our home and everything was in perfect shape when we came back. We got daily updates and photos of the animals and they all looked like they were having a great time. We will definitely have Madison back!”
“Kieran and Nicole are amazing!! They are so professional and caring - you don’t have to worry about a thing ! I have 3 dogs and a cat- everyone was cared for and loved ! I highly recommend them!”
“Ashly was amazing with our 2 dogs. She stayed with them for about 11 days and we received multiple updates and photos from the time she was with them. She left our house in amazing condition as well and there were zero issues while we were gone. Would definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone!”
“Andrea was amazing with all three of my dogs. We have a puppy that we were afraid of having aggressive behavior since we were not home and he and the other dogs were so comfortable with her. It definitely helped to keep me at ease.”
“Christine was awesome! She came over and met our boys a few days before we went out of town. They loved her! She was very professional and had a lot of experience which gave us peace of mind. She was also willing to come at all hours of the night to check on our boys if we needed her to! While gone, Christine gave us updates and sent us pictures letting us know how our boys were doing. She was very attentive and let us know she found a lump on one of our dog’s legs. This showed us that she was caring and really paying attention to the boys each time she came over. Though we were out of cell service almost the entire time we were gone, we knew that the boys were in great care with Christine! We would definitely recommend her services and will be using her again the next time we go out of town!”
