Courtney was fantastic! She took great care of my dog, Max, followed all his care instructions, and provided photos and updates regularly. She also left my apartment spotless and was an extremely respectful house guest.

Hailey was an amazing sitter. The dogs loved her and she took great care of the house. She followed instructions and sent photos and videos throughout the days she was there. She was available for a short notice booking and made time to have a meet and greet.

We are SO happy we found Kyle. He checked in with us daily, sent photos and kept us informed regarding everything with our pups and at our home while we were away. We hate leaving them and usually stress about it. We didn't worry about them at all while Kyle stayed. Highly Recommend! Thank you, Kyle!

Dylan immediately understood our pets needs and required very little direction. He was very attentive during his week long booking and kept our pups very happy. I would highly recommend him and will definitely try booking him again in the future.

Beth was amazing! She watched our two labs for an extended long weekend. It was our first time using Rover and now we will never go back to anything else. It set our mind at ease to know our pets were being loved in their own home. Beth was on time, she cleaned up when she didn’t have to and most importantly she handled a dog medical situation that was unexpected with a prompt call to us and constant back and forth on what was going on. She provides pictures and can be as communicative as you want. Will stick with her going forward!!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for about 5 years and truly love being around animals. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, play with, and look after their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and animals with different temperaments, and I always treat them like they’re my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine and I have a flexible schedule. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime while their owners are away. I’m a stay at home wife. Not employed just looking for some side jobs! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and exercise routines. I always make sure pets are supervised, secure on walks, and comfortable in their environment. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Beth. I went away leaving my dogs for the first time not with family. Not only did she go above and beyond caring for them but I could see in all the photos she provided that my dogs were loved and happy. She has extensive knowledge of dogs and knows what is healthy for them and what isn’t. She even taught me many things I didn’t know but needed to know. Upon return you could tell that my dogs missed their Auntie Beth. If and when we go away again I will make sure it is only when Beth is avaliable!

Christine accommodated a last minute schedule change where we needed her 2 extra days. She was patient and loving with my very scared boy. He was comfortable and happy in no time thanks to her TLC. She left my home immaculate. I felt so much more at ease knowing she was watching my precious pup. Thank you times a million for making our first time leaving Sport so much easier. Also, the pictures were very much appreciated.
