1. Anita Lynn P.

“Anita Lynn did an excellent job watching our border collie and keeping us updated with how her stay was going. She sent several pictures and played with her a ton. Would definitely book her again!”


2. Maura R.


“Great experience. We needed help last minute & she was extremely responsive. We received updates through the night & our pups were well taken care of!!”


3. Carrie H.

“We have used dog sitters in 38 states over the past four years, and we have never had our dogs react to us like, “Oh, you’re back…” when we got home! Carrie came in the night before her scheduled arrival time to spend more time with them before we left very early the next morning, and except for a few quick trips over the three days, she never left them. She is impeccably clean, well-mannered, and loves animals. Obviously, she has our highest recommendation for anyone needing help with their fur babies.”

About: I love dogs and the companionship. I enjoy going for walks weather it's down the street or a couple miles. I also enjoy getting to know dogs and their personalities. I have a little training and grooming skills. Also I have always had a dog in my life, I enjoy dogs of all sizes. I look forward to getting to know all the dogs and having some regular. I currently have one dog of my own but have had up to three dogs at a time. We love going to the park and just going on an adventure. My dog has taught me so much and I look forward to what the others will teach me. Feel free to contact me for more information, I look forward to hearing from you. I work full time but I always have time in my day to fit more things in. Love going for walks and having company for the whole time. I have my own dogs so I know safety first. Always leash them because you never know what will happen with someone else. Or might might be more scary.


12. Donald A.

“I highly recommend Donald as a pet sitter. He did an outstanding job watching my dog, Dixie, while I was away on vacation. Not only did he take great care of her, but he also sent me daily updates and pictures so I knew she was in good hands. Dixie was well-fed, exercised, and loved, and I could tell she was happy and comfortable the whole time. Donald truly went above and beyond to make sure Dixie was well taken care of, and I am so grateful to have found him. I will definitely be using his services again.”

From posted pictures to us and giving details about her visits with them we quickly realized what a great pet sitter she is. I would highly recommend her. Thank you so much!”


15. Suzanne B.

“Suzanne came to the rescue midway through my trip. We had another Rover sitter who had to be removed. It was awful. I was beside myself with worry. With the help of the safety team, Suzanne came and cleaned up my house and my babies and loved on them for the last couple days of the trip. She communicated exceptionally well and sent photos. Stop looking if Suzanne is available. She's amazing.”
