“Being new to the area, I had to tackle the task of finding a new Rover sitter that would meet our needs, with the highest priority being finding someone who we felt understood how much our dogs’ safety and happiness mean to us. I feel like the universe sent Mark to us - he was perfectly communicative, responsible, timely, and just a fun visitor. I can’t say enough about Mark’s hospitable attitude and friendly demeanor. I’m sure my dogs wish I was still on vacation so they could spend more time with their new best friend Mark! :)”

“Elizabeth took care of my two cats (one of whom is diabetic) over the Christmas break…she came for a meet and greet to learn how to administer insulin to a cat. She is a med student so picked it up quickly. Wonderful feedback and photos daily. I was so pleased and confident with her checking on my two beloved cats…one who is feisty and the other very very shy! Thanks to Elizabeth for a great job!!”

When that didn’t work, she was able to last minute add several more visits to our booking. She even took in the mail for us! Highly competent and professional, I HIGHLY recommend😊”

Regularly checking pet-proofing measures such as gates, fencing, and furniture stability can prevent accidents.

Prioritizing these safety measures gives pets the freedom to explore while keeping them protected from common household dangers.

I have a one bed apartment with everything a dog can need from blankets to toys & even treats. I can crate if needed!! (:

“We loved Ysa as our cat sitter! She was very attentive and gave great updates throughout the process. We also loved that she was so detailed about what she needed from us, it really gave us peace of mind during our time away! We felt so safe leaving our cats with Ysa and could not recommend her enough!!”
