“Mark is excellent. His kind and gentle care of my two dogs is wonderful. Mark pays attention to details and truly cares. His care of my dogs gives me peace of mind during the day.”
“I highly recommend Amanda! She stopped over to meet my kitties and learn their routine and what they like before watching them. She is very responsible and a kind person. She genuinely loves the animals. She kept me informed while I was away so I had peace of mind. I will definitely use her again. ❣️”
“I know a couple of people that have used,worked at Rover or used to work for them, and I'm so glad I chose them. Easy to download the app, pick who you would hopefully be a good fit, etc ...and they come to your house for a meet and greet which is a plus for both the clients and sitter's. I was hesitant because we adopted both dogs, one just in Feb and they are a handful together, but Sara was an excellent sitter knowing how nervous I was to leave for 4 days; she texted me back, sent me pictures and made sure I knew they were doing good and that they were getting along. I highly recommend Rover and of course Sara. I worked with the elderly and with special needs children so I know how important it is to trust and be trusted with someone coming into your home and feeling comfortable and appreciate. Sara went above and beyond to make sure I knew my dogs were safe and being taken care of.”
“Words simply cannot express how grateful I am for Ami and James. Ami went wayyy above and beyond for us and our fur babies. They sent me messages when they were enroute to our home which put my mind at ease. Then, photos and/or videos were "worth a thousand words" as the saying goes. Ami is literally a lifesaver. I will definitely be booking again. (Thanks again, Ami.)”
“I am so grateful to Joelle for accommodating my last minute request! She was great with my cat who is sually shy but warmed up to her immediately and left my apartment cleaner than when I left it. Hoping to book again in the future!”

About: Special needs/senior care Potty training Leash training Experience with reactive dogs Able to administer oral medication and injections Can walk more than 1 dog at a time My schedule is fairly flexible but I’m more often able to work in the morning. I am unavailable from 1-8 pm on tuesdays and Thursdays, and from 4-8 pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. Fridays and weekends are often open for me. When I’m sitting in a clients home I try to spend as much time with the animal as possible so they have company and have the chance to get to know me. I try to do a visit with their owner first if possible so I’m able to learn more about them and their routine at home. For walks and drop ins I like to reach out to owners so I know as much as I can about the pets personality and habits before meeting them.

“Alaina was available at the last minute to help me with cat sitting while I was out of town! She promptly set up a meet + greet prior to the start of the cat sitting, and it was great! She did an awesome job looking after my cats and sent me lots of photos each day, which I very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend!”
About: When I was eleven I started my own dog walking business in my neighborhood and it grew from there to my family and friends and their friends. I would be responsible for daily walks as well as overnight care staying in their home. I grew up riding horses and my trainer would rely on me for daily feeding and caring for the horses and her personal dogs as needed. When she would go away on vacation or business trips in or out of the country, I would care for the twenty two horses and her personal pets. I studied at Bergin University of Canine Studies in California where I learned how to train service dogs. Right out of College I was hired as a trainer at Canine Partners for Life and trained Service Dogs for Six Years. There I learned so much about dog care and training and handling all ages and types of dog with different behaviors. I am comfortable giving any medications or any other special needs your pup might need. I would take one of my service dogs in training home every night and care for them. I would be in charge of training 8-12 dogs at a time and managing their medical appointments and their schedules with volunteers and much more. Now I work part-time from home. I care for the horses on our property and two personal labs who love visitors. Leaving lots of time to care for your furry family member! We live on a small farm with 16 acres and I care for five horses on our property. We also have two loving labs who love visitors. I run some errands during the day but your pup wouldn’t be left home alone more than 4 hours at a time at most. I have lots of time to spend quality time with your pup! I have a portion of our yard that is fenced in for your dog to run around. I have two labs who would love to keep your pup company. We have 16 acres that I can take your dog on leashed walks as well as surrounding neighborhoods with long walking trails. Your pup would be a part of the family while you’re away around the house with us! We have plenty of dogs bed around the house and we allow cuddles on the couch. We have a crate if needed.
