1. Maybelline C.

“Maybelline was punctual and took great care of my sweet boy, Oliver. They really enjoyed spending time outside in the nice weather, and Oliver loved his belly rubs and cuddles when back indoors. Maybelline was very kind and communicative throughout the day. I appreciate her keeping Oliver company and will definitely reach out to her again when the need arises. ☺️”

“Amanda has watched our dog, Ringo, countless times and is the absolute best! She cares for him as if he was her own, and always makes sure to go above and beyond - whether it’s an extra walk or extra pets. She is reliable, trustworthy, and a great communicator. Ringo is one lucky pup to get to be loved by her! We highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for care for their pets.”

We are very thankful to have found her!!!”

8. Andrea D.
“I highly recommend Andrea for dog/animal services! She is incredibly intelligent, responsible, and makes thoughtful decisions in all aspects of her life. Growing up with dogs and having experience with a variety of breeds, she has developed a deep love and understanding of animals. Her natural connection with dogs, combined with her experience, ensures that every walk will be enjoyable and safe for your furry friend. You can trust her to provide the best care for your pet, as she always puts their needs and well-being first.”

10. Nicole V.
“I’ve had a lot of help from Nicole with my ESA Zola a lot over the last three years, she’s done a lot from feeding, to walking, keeping a general eye on her for me when I’m not around due to daily tasks, and taking her on little trips, she’s amazing with her and all dogs. I highly recommend her for anything you may need with your pet.”


11. Taa E.

“Taa is an excellent sitter - I have a puppy who because he's young needs a little extra TLC and guidance, since he is working on his manners. But she was great with him and accommodating. She was also on time and communicative, both of which I really appreciate. Would definitely recommend and hire again!”


12. Carolyn F.

“Carolyn really took the time to asses the needs of our family. We had a last minute change in plans and had to travel the next day, then our dog had some extra medical needs which is not something most people want to deal with, but Carolyn came through and was able to spend overnight with our dog at home. We appreciate the positive attitude and can-do way of acting. Thanks again , would recommend to everyone.”


13. Randy D.

“Randy was extremely professional and accommodating. Stella takes awhile to warm up to people and I think (in her way) she took to Randy. I always hate leaving Stella so the pictures were greatly appreciated.”




14. Gus C.


“Gus, Marian, Ollie and family welcomed Boone into their home for a five-night stay. Ollie was a wonderful playmate and mentor, and Gus and Marian and family gave 3mo. old Boone lots of guidance and consistent reinforcement. This was our first time at a host family, and Rover.com was a wonderful experience...I will definitely use them again!”


15. Isabella B.

She is someone that you can always count on. Animals, especially pets, bring her so much joy. And I know that any pet would be so grateful to have her watch over them. She is an excellent fit for this position!”


18. Kelsey I.

20. Grace G.
“Grace has cared for my pets( past and present) in both my home and hers. She is attentive and caring going above and beyond. She takes them to dog parks,plays games with them, and even plays soothing music when they rest. She communicates with me to find out whatever training we are working on so that we are consistent with commands and lets me know if she taught them anything new while she was caring for them. My dogs jump for joy whenever they see Grace.”
