I couldn’t say in words how wonderful Rose is!!! I came home to what felt like another Airbnb… all the linens were folded and cleaned and the house was clean!!! She kept us up to date on the dogs and was genuinely concerned for a safe drive home!! Seriously book her in advance!! We did and so glad we did because she was quick to respond and so respectful as well as asking any questions. And she books quickly!!

Jessica is great! Our pup has separation anxiety and she goes above and beyond to make him happy while we are away. We will definitely be asking her to watch him again and I highly recommend her services.

Madi was fantastic! Wrigley is a high energy dog and he got daily trips to the dog park and even a trip to the pet store. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos. The house was spotless when we got home and Wrigley seemed very happy! This was our first time with a sitter and we were pretty nervous since our dog has separation anxiety, however with Madi here I don’t think he even realized we were gone. We’re already adding Madi to the calendar for next time, and would recommend them again and again!!!

This was our first time using Andrea and she really did a fantastic job! We were nervous as we haven’t really had that great of luck with our past house/pet sitters. She took time to meet us and even took notes on how to care for our fur babies. Our house was left as we had left it and she spent genuine time with our pets. So pleased with her and already have her scheduled for another one! Highly recommend her!! :)

Ella did a great job looking after our Charlie for our week long vacation. Ella stayed evenings and overnight with him as he is a nervous dog. Ella also had him feeling comfortable and had him playing right away. Ella did a great job taking care our our property as well, cleaned up after themselves and made sure to keep us informed about Charlie the whole week. A+++ highly recommend!

Sidney did a wonderful job house-sitting our 2 kitties. It was our first time using rover so we were a bit nervous, but she was great about communication & giving frequent updates. Our house was even cleaner than we had left it! We would very much recommended Sidney for pet sitting and would use her for future trips.

Elizabeth is wonderful with dogs! She gets to know them individually and works with them to best suit their needs. My baby always gets excited to see her and Elizabeth always gives her reason to be excited! She is very respectful and responsible, and I trust her completely with my puppy.

Katya was great with my high energy GSD mix puppy and my lil old beagle/Bassett! She communicated clearly, sent pix and was reliable and respectful. We had a great meet and greet which was so comforting for me.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Neighbors, friends and family have all relied on me to walk, feed and bathe and even style their pets! Not only did I take care of others but I have my very own fur baby that I’ve been taking care of since I was a kid. I’m currently a part-time college student, a dog groomer, content creator and an aspiring entrepreneur to open my own business one day. I love to stay busy and active so your pup will get plenty of energy with me! I love to work out routinely and it’s so much more fun with dogs at my side! I am available all week and weekends just shoot me a text to let me know ahead of time, what’s your schedule, etc. I have a fenced yard and I have a dog of my own to keep your fur baby accompanied! I can crate my dog or yours if needed. I love all dogs as they are my own. It’s in my religion that animals are most sacred, so you can trust your pet is in good hands! I’m not greedy, not in this for the money, I’m willing to negotiate prices, whatever’s easier for you and to make your life more peaceful. Seriously! I do not mind! :)
