I genuinely feel like Scout is in good hands whenever I book with David. He looks after her with genuine care and always goes the extra mile to make sure she’s having a good time while I’m away. I will definitely be looking to book with him in the future.

Huge huge huge shout out to MacKenzie for watching my pups while I was out of town! I just moved up here and was a little worried about being away from the new place/state and leaving the dogs up here in the meantime. However, MacKenzie just seemed trustworthy, cool, and kind, and I was right! Not only did she want to make sure she did a good job and followed their schedules and everything to a T, she also just loved and cared about them instantly. What really sold MacKenzie as just being a rockstar was her willingness to work with my one dog who has major stranger danger and takes a bit to trust especially with females. MacKenzie did what she could and spent a lot of time focusing on his comfortability and building his trust with her while still ensuring my other dog got her attention and love as well. Throughout the visits, MacKenzie gave me numerous photos and videos as well as updates from all her visits. I am truly grateful to have had her help and her love and care for my animals while I was away. I will 100% be using MacKenzie from here on out for my animal’s care!

About: I have always had a passion for animals ever since I can remember. I have some experience with big dogs and high energy dogs as well. I have 3 cats of my own who are all very used to being around dogs. I work full time as a CNA during the day and am also a mom! Who doesn’t want a side hustle that includes snuggling up to dogs and taking walks! I work full time as a CNA working first shift so that leaves me the rest of the day to be home! I have a 2 year old son! I live in a neighborhood perfect for long (or short) walks! We love to be outside as much as possible (weather permitting!) I own my house and although I do not have a fenced yard I do have plenty of space to run around and walk with your furry family member. I live in perfect neighborhood for taking walks and although we are still remodeling our interior here and there we have managed to make it so cozy and as clean as we can with a toddler!

Baela did a great job taking care of my two cats! One of them is a little bit difficult and needed medication, and she took care of it no problem. My cats were happy when I got home, and everything was in order. Baela communicated very well before and during my trip. I would definitely recommend Baela and would use her again next time I go out of town.

About: I had dogs all my life, I love them!! I currently have a 11 years old weimaraner, which is in Spain with my parents, and a 5 years old Russian Toy, Harry. Harry is living with my bf and I in Rochester. He is 4.5lb and a super easy-going boy! So, I am used to all dog sizes, and I do pretty well with the high energy ones!! I'm a PhD student so I can scape from the lab anytime. I normally walk my dogs very early in the morning, at noon and at night. During the weekends I give them long walks. At my place my dogs have been always inside home and at their own. When they go out is always under my supervision. Since my dogs are well behaved and not destructive I've never used crates. If I take care of a dog that is not mine, I will listen the requirements from their humans to have a good care of their needs.

My diabetic cat with urinary problems was required to take 2 types of medicine, daily. My left paralysis handicap made that impossible for me to do. Ona eased my panic. She was on time, daily and gave him both medicines as professionally as a vet would do, and encouraged him as only an animal lover knows how to do. He loved her. Ona is a kind, personable person. I would trust giving her a key for the vacation, I’m going to go on, shortly. She ”checks off all the boxes”, of someone you’d want to take care of your pets. Thank you, Ona!!!

Rebecca took care of my cat Gracie while I was away and it was my first time using Rover. Rebecca was wonderful, read through my three pages of instructions, lol, and I appreciated the care and attention she gave to Gracie! She definitely put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my time away. I will definitely use her again!

Emma listened to, understood, and executed all of the directions for my cat, 🐈‍⬛ Milo. More importantly, she brought her caring spirit to her daily check-ins for feedings, litter sifting, and love-petting. And I appreciated the photos of Milo and his sweet face. I highly recommend Emma.

Kate was absolutely fantastic. Our cat Millie got sick right before we were leaving for vacation, and Kate jumped right in on short notice. She went above and beyond, giving daily pills and other meds based on how Millie was doing. She was always responsive and kept us updated. We will absolutely use Kate again and highly recommend her!

Squeaker and Ariel were happy to see Wei arrive every morning and evening while I was away, especially when it was time for treats and, for Squeaker, brushing his coat. Ariel apologizes for her hissing, she takes a while to show her friendly feline nature! It was nice to see photos of my cats while I was away. Wei was proactive in dealing with issues by maintaining communication while I was out of the country.
