“Kevin was attentive with our dogs and an immaculate house guest. He was thorough in making sure that he tended to what we asked. We appreciated his care with our pups and we felt comfortable knowing our dogs were so well taken care of. We will definitely use him again!”
“Jocelyn was so attentive to Regan’s needs and how to comfort her when we were out of town. Very good with communication and we really appreciated her availability on short notice. Will definitely try to book with her again.”
“Erika kept in touch with me daily and sent photos. I can tell my dog was well cared for and I would absolutely have Erika dog sit again. My house was also clean when I got home. Erika did a great job with my leash reactive dog.”
“Audrey is awesome! She took such great care of my elderly cat. Pictures and notes every day! I got home and she'd taken out trash, washed up, etc. - left my place spotless! Thank you so much, Audrey, for taking such wonderful care of Carli and my home! I highly recommend Audrey - she is reliable and trustworthy and will love on your pets!”
“Lewis was outstanding! We needed pet care at the last minute to travel out of town for a family funeral. Our dog is older and on special medicines. Lewis came for a meet and greet on short notice and took great care of our dog giving him all of his meds. We felt confident that our dog was well cared for and we had at least daily updates with pictures. We will use Lewis again in the future!”
“Katherine did so great watching our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She sent updates and photos and let us know of any issues right away. She was always quick to respond. She kept everyone happy and kept the house clean when she left. Overall, an amazing job and I’d definitely ask her back.”
“Highly recommend! It’s hard leaving your fur babies when you’re gone for an extended period of time but Vanessa kept me at ease! Photos and videos with updates each day and took care of our house as well. Will be booking again.”
“Shyann was amazing! She stayed at our house and sent us lots of daily photos and updates of our fur babies. I felt super comfortable being away. I would recommend Shyaan to anyone and feel relieved to have found her for any future trips I take!”
“This is the second time we have had Kaya watch our poodle, she was very relaxed when we got home, and house was as we left better than we left it. Would have her watch Anya again.”
“Autumn was great with our 3 (somewhat sensitive ;) pups). Great communication throughout her visit. Highly recommend if you are looking for someone trustworthy to look after your pets. Thanks Autumn!”
About: I have plenty of pup care from family, friends and fur babies of my own. I can do anything your baby needs and more. From only a few weeks old to an old doggo. My schedules are super flexible whatever your pup or kitty needs I can make happen for them. I am in the military so availability will vary. I wake up early most days and take my pup out for a potty break and following that I feed her. Depending how busy the day is I will take her to the park or if I am watching other pets I will take them on a super long walk.
“We were in a last-minute bind with an unexpected puppy and nowhere to board her and our other dog for a week (our puppy hadn’t had all of her shots yet). Dillon scheduled an impromptu Meet and Greet the day before we left. And was able to come to our house and watch all of our animals. I was very nervous to have a stranger in our home but I read all of the reviews on Rover and took a chance. Dillon is very mellow - as is his pup. We were grateful Dillon (and Bucky) were a good fit in our situation.”
About: Es indescriptible con pocas palabras el amor tan grande que siento por todos los animales, en especial por los perros, tengo 42 años y toda mi vida siempre he tenido a mi lado un perrito, así que cuento con la capacidad de saber entender sus necesidades básicas, cuando tienen sed, hambre, quieren jugar o tienen alguna molestia, ese amor y entendimiento me permiten considerar que cuento con la capacidad y la dedicación para hacer este hermoso trabajo que además me hace feliz. Trabajo los fines de semana de viernes a domingo, pero cuento con total disponibilidad para cuidar a tus peludos de lunes a jueves en el horario que necesites de mi apoyo en el cuidado de ellos. Tengo un jardín, no cuenta con valla en este momento pero puedo sacarlo con su collar, si prefieres que lo cuide en tu casa, también podré hacerlo, tengo en mi casa una perrita pug, ella es muy juguetona y amigable, puede llevarse bien con otros perritos, pero yo me adapto a las condiciones que a ti como papá o mamá perruna, te parezcan mejor para que el peludito esté seguro y feliz, durante el tiempo que vaya a compartir conmigo.
“One of the best! So kind and caring, I felt zero worries with Amanda taking care of our dogs and our home. We were sent photos and updates daily, which we loved, and could tell the pups were tired and happy when we got back from our trip! Amanda is 10/10!!”
“Kaylin was great!! She was extremely flexible when we had to unexpectedly extend our vacation by a day. She sent pics of our pups and always answered quickly any time I messaged her. I would highly recommend her to anyone!😁”
“Coral took very good care of Cookie. Coral gave us daily updates and even gave us an overall update. Coral was communicative and paid close attention to detailed requests. She took care of our place like it was her own and when we got back it was the same as when we left.”
“We love Rhonda so much. We never have to worry when she is sitting for us and she leaves the house in better shape than we do when she gets here! She’s so sweet to us and our dogs, great about providing updates and just an all around great person. We always try to book her when we go out of town. She’s the best!”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats since I was a baby. My first best friend was my cat Schiller. I have experience with my own dogs and cats, as well as others, and am adaptable in the ways that I can care for pets. I am confident in my ability to read an animal's body language and help them feel comfortable, engaged with, and happy! I love taking dogs OR cats out for exercise, and follow routines well! I'm currently a student at CSU and taking the summer working part-time gigs, so I'll have plenty of time to hang out with your pets! I have plenty of experience taking care of shy dogs and cats, and I feel comfortable creating a cozy environment for pets who are already on edge without their owner. I am happy to accommodate pets who are very social as well, I love taking dogs out to the dog park!
