1. Judy K.
“I am new to the Blue Ridge area and had been spoiled rotten by my regular dog sitter back in Arizona. But I have to say Judy has become my new sitter with whom my dogs get spoiled rotten. She is very attentive. Received daily updates and pictures regularly (2-3 times a day). Anytime she had a question just asked. Watered my plants, and even did the sheets and towels before we got home. The dogs were very happy with her both through activities outside and her attentiveness while staying in our home. One of our pups had a bit of a limp and she helped us try to care for her until we were home. Found out once home she now has arthritis. But Judy was there taking full care of our dogs. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
2. Ben T.
“This was the second time we hired Ben to watch our pups. Once again, we were very pleased with how our pups were cared for. Ben was communicative while we were away, and our home was clean and tidy when we returned.”
3. Sherri S.
“Sherri did a wonderful job taking care of my babies. She sent frequent updates WITH pictures showing me that everyone was eating, playing outside, and relaxing. I saw no stress with any of them. Sherri was always on time and she made it easy for me to feel confident in her skills even with short notice for this job and my newness to using Rover. She left the house even cleaner than it was to begin with! I am so happy to know there’s someone who can come and stay with my older pets if I need it and they can remain in their own home in comfort and with less stress than being put in a kennel. This is the service I’ve been looking for in this area, and Sherri’s care is worth every penny of the cost. Thank you! I would highly recommend!”

“We have requested Alexandra‘s pet sitting services on several occasions over the past year. During our first visit, and introduction to our dogs, she was very thorough and made notes of their individual needs. She has always been professional, trustworthy, generous with her time, and most importantly, compassionate and loving to our two dogs. I would highly recommend Alexandra to anyone searching for an attentive and devoted animal caregiver. I cannot thank her enough for all of the love and care that she has provided our pups during their time together. I am confident that anyone that engages her pet sitting services will quickly feel the same way.”

19. Lily R.
“Lily loves all animals. Growing up she has had everything from hermit crabs to dogs and cats. Lily always takes the time to research how to best take care of the animals she wants before she gets them. She gets the best food, supplies and toys to make sure they are properly taken care of. She has lots of experience with all sorts of animals. She has had reptiles, small animals like hamsters and guinea pigs. She has had 3 chinchillas for many years. Lily is not only great with animals, she is great with kids. She has the patience to entertain and play with kids and has had years of experience watching other people's children. I only say this because she is amazing with animals and kids and has lots of patience. She pays lots of attention to her animals and will be great with other people's furry family. She has also had experience watching pets over the last year.”
