Kelly went above and beyond when she took care of your potty Ruger. Kelly was always on time and made sure to feed, water, and play with ruger outside. Kelly sent us pictures and updates of every visit. While we were out of town it was super hot and Kelly even took the time to water our flowers. We will definitely have Kelly taking care of Ruger or any other dogs we may have in the future and you should do the same. Thanks for everything Kelly. Tony and Lisa

About: I have taken care of friends and family and fellow neighbors pets ranging from yorkies to bull mastiffs. I was responsible for taking them out, feeding, play time, walking, and just spending time with them. I love animals no matter how big or small they are. I work part time at night. I am very flexible with pet sitting needs. I have no rigid schedule which makes it easier for me to take of your pets. I always make sure to keep a eye on your loved pets and make sure all their needs are met. Guarantee you’ll come home to a happy dog!

We needed a last minute sitter to come visit our mini dachshunds while we were on vacation and Caroline was great! She made all our check in’s and included pictures every time. Thank you Caroline for looking over our pups while we were away !

Elyse did a great job watching our cat while we were gone for a week. She was very organized and communicative, and sent plenty of pictures each day that she stopped by. She also gave Cid plenty of attention and was easy to work with

During the meet and greet, Blue took an instant liking to Kisha which was great to see. Kisha sent us pictures for every visit and we felt very confident that Blue was in good hands. This was our first time using a service like this and Kisha made the experience a positive one and we look forward to using Kisha in the future.

About: My family has 2 dogs, one we’ve had for almost 10 years and another we’ve had for about 2 years. I have been watching dogs in my neighborhood for about 10 years. I have mostly conducted drop in visits but have walked dogs on occasion. For a little over 2 years I worked at a doggy daycare where I gained experience administered medications to dogs. Drop-ins and walks can easily be fit into my schedule. I can sometimes be flexible with times but days are set in stone. If something comes up or I feel I will be late for a drop-in or walk I will be sure to let you know as soon as possible. For drop-ins I will follow requests as closely as I can. If there is any medication that needs to be administered I am unfortunately only comfortable administering oral medications. With walks I can either bring my own bags or you can provide them just let me know in advance. For both of these services I require a meet and greet before the services begin so that you dog(s) can become familiar with me and we can go over any necessary info.

I can’t say enough good things about Annie! She has taken care of my cat several times now and she is amazing with him. She is punctual and attentive, and always sends the cutest photos to me and notes on how my cat is doing each day I was away. I hate leaving my cat for any period of time alone, but Annie made me feel like my cat was being well cared for each day she came to check in on him. Thank you so much! Highly recommend! 😊

Katharine was amazing and very patient with Isla. Isla can be wary with strangers, so it was comforting to know time to adjust to a new person was provided! Communication was also excellent throughout the visit.

About: We have grown up around cats and dogs. We are the go to pet sitters for our families and friends. We have experience with cats, dogs, snakes, turtles, fish, and ferrets. We have house trained our dogs and know the patience required with the process. We both work from home so we are able to take dogs out as needed and nothing is better on a work break then cuddling some fuzzies. We have a large fenced in yard,so dogs can safely run and play. We always stay outside with them. Inside the house is pet proofed with couch protection covers and scratching posts for cats. All kitty litter is gated off from dog access. Water bowls are available upstairs and downstairs. If we are outside for more than 15 minutes we also bring a water bowl outside.

Thank you Courtney for taking such good care of our kitty. Communication with you was great and we highly recommend you to anyone looking for a cat sitter. We appreciate the pics sent each day. It was very reassuring, particularly since this was the first time we used Rover. Will definitely contact you in the future if the need arises.

Jacob is caring and patient with my senior dog as she can sometimes take a while on walks or to eat her food. He’s excellent at communication - responds quickly, sends pics, and asks all the right questions to provide the best service. Five stars!
