1. Abbey W.

“Abbey house sat for our lab mix Finn for 6 days on pretty short notice. Finn is a very anxious dog when meeting new people and Abby was quickly able to get his trust. She was very responsive and everything went very well.”


2. Seanna B.

“Seanna was wonderful! She kept us updated multiple times a day and made sure that our pups got long walks and lots of attention. We are already booking her for a followup visit for our next trip! Highly recommended!”


3. Rachel J.
“I cannot recommend Rachel highly enough as a dog walker. They have been walking my dog, Rachel, for the past few months, and it has been a wonderful experience. Rachel is reliable, punctual, and truly caring towards Angel. They always make sure Angel gets plenty of exercise, fun, and even some training during their walks. Rachel communicates effectively, providing updates and photos from each walk, which I greatly appreciate. It's clear that Rachel loves dogs and understands their needs. I feel very confident that Angel is in good hands with Rachel, and I’m grateful for their dedication and professionalism.”




4. Lacy S.
“Lacy is very caring with cats and dogs and loves to bond with people’s pets. She pays attention to details and timing of any applicable need of a pet, whether it be a unique diet or medical attention.”


5. Mirabella J.
“As a fellow Rover pet sitter, it was great to find someone like minded to watch my pups. She followed my instructions well. When I got back home my dogs clearly enjoyed their time with her and were exhausted from all the fun walks and play sessions. When I am busy and can't accommodate a customers request, I always refer them to her.”


6. Kelly Lea L.

“Brownie needs more interaction with people on an ongoing basis without mom around. Kelly did the best she possibly could with a scared dog. Thank you for trying so hard and giving him his treats. Hopefully he will get there soon. Thanks Kelly for the updates and pictures.”


7. Hannah G.

“I cannot vouch enough how amazing Hannah was as a house and dog sitter. We have two large rambunctious dogs (German shep and pitbull). She came and met and played with them a week before and was super communicative before, during and even after her stay. We ended up having an emergency where she needed to stay another night so I paid her more plus tip but she was more than happy to help. Thank god her schedule permitted! She sent photos and updates on the dogs and was a wonderful house guest. We HIGHLY recommend her and will be hiring her again in the future without a doubt!!”

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors and friends dogs since I was 7. I took care of my doggo for years. I’ve taken care sick dogs and senior dogs. I am currently working full time but, I work early in the morning so I am completely free all afternoons. I am completely free on Thursdays and Saturdays! I have a big yard and if needed, I am able to take your baby to my house to play. I have access to a great dog walking trail around the Prairie Creek Reservoir.


9. Caidan R.

“We were over the moon impressed with Caidan. We hired him to stay in our home and watch our 5 year old German Shepherd while we were visiting family in another state. God blessed us with the best sitter we could have possibly found for our girl Luna while we were gone. Luna loves him, he is very professional, kind and respectful. He took excellent care of her and our home was even cleaner than before we left. Caidan made us feel so extremely confident in leaving our German Shepherd who has a lot of anxiety in his care and we could not of asked for anyone better! Thank you Caidan so very much!!”

18. Olivia C.

“Olivia was great! She did a “meet and greet” with us which was so helpful. Our pups can be a handful and she seemed to roll right into their routine so things stayed consistent for them. She kept in touch and sent some awesome pictures. We are so grateful for good help and will definitely keep her in mind for future needs for our pups. 👍🏻👍🏻”


19. Zoe B.

“I just hired Zoe for the first time and she did an awesome job. I have a large Bernese Mountain dog and three cats, a handful. Zoe kept everyone happy while I was on my work trip. My dog used to be pretty stressed when I would return from trips, but with Zoe she was calm and happy when I got back. I appreciate Zoe for providing so much more than food and basic care for my babies, and highly recommend her.”
