“This was the 3rd (or 4th?) Time we've booked with Nicole. She's always easy to work with, timely, and send lots of pictures. She's always our first choice!”
“Jackson provided a great dog walking service! He came for an initial meet and greet and was punctual and diligent throughout the whole process. I would definitely use his services again!”
“Heidi was great!! My dog is an apartment dog now, but he once was a backyard dog. He’s not super used to the whole going on a walk in the city thing, and she did fantastic! He has severe reactivity issues and that wasn’t an issue for her. He went 2 and a half miles (way longer than i’d ever have the time to do) and it’s worth every penny. I will def use her again for future walks!!”
“Marianna has been walking our Olive this week (and hopefully for many weeks to come!) and has been wonderful. Even though her first day she could barely get in our door due to a dysfunctional lock and key, she kept trying and because of that Olive got her walk and was much more at ease when we came home from work than she would've been if Marianna had not taken the time and effort to make sure she got in. Our dog has a few weird quirks and requirements, but Marianna had been extremely understanding and accommodating. We will definitely continue to use her as her schedule allows. Thanks Marianna!”
“Bryn was awesome! We had a last minute request and she was a great communicator, showed up early, and was very helpful and loving to our dog. I really appreciated how easy she made it on us. Will definitely use her again!”
“Rodrigo was very professional and communicative before and during the booking and made sure to answer any questions I had. The boys seemed to have a good time hanging out with him!”
“I recently had a baby and was unable to walk my dog for a two week period. Given he is accustomed to several walks a day, this was really a big challenge. Brooke came 2x a day for two weeks straight rain/shine/cold didn't matter! She was wonderful and Tucker fell in love with her. She was always on time and did the full 30+. HUGE HELP! Would use again for sure!! Thank you!”
“Stephanie is the BEST! She cared for our dog so well. We loved all the thorough updates and pictures. We felt so comfortable being out of town with her caring for and loving on our dog. Thank you, Stephanie!”
“Brittany was fantastic with our dog! She was a great communicator, sent lots of photos, and loved on Ollie so well. We are thankful that we could feel confident with Ollie’s care while we were out of town!!! Brittany is the best!!!”
About: I have well over a decade of hands on pet care experience from owning my own, to pet sitting, to working with livestock and volunteering with rescue organizations. Whether you need me to give your bearded dragon a bath while youre on vacation or stop by regularly during your work week to give your pup a walk, I'm your gal! Currently I am available for drop in visits for cats, small to medium/large dogs, and small to medium exotic pets as permitted by Rover. While I am not available for overnight stays I can make multiple daily drop ins over extended periods if you are away for work, vacation or any other reason. I have a lot of availability and my schedule is flexible! I work from home and make my own schedule, so while I am only available for drop in visits I am very flexible on time! As long as I have no prior commitments almost any time from early morning to late at night should be fine. I am extremely detail oriented and fully capable of following whatever pet care routines your fur baby needs. From cleaning litterboxes to giving medicine I am very comfortable with almost all aspects of pet care.
“Excellent job! booked for an entire month out and never had any issues, provided plenty of updates and photo each walk! I always felt my dog was safe and well cared for while I was at work”
“Corinne came to our rescue, providing excellent care for our dogs on very short notice. One of our dogs is very energetic and he takes a while to warm up to strangers - Corinne gave him the time he needed to warm up to her and she provided the exercise he needed. She sent pictures and was quick to communicate. We would recommend her to others and will use her again. Thanks Corinne!!!!”
About: Let’s start with safety comes 1st!! That’s something that I value highly of, especially when it comes to your pup. I’m someone who’s really understanding & patient when it comes to animals of all kinds, it’s also important to be very loving too!! That’s key, especially when building a brand new bond with a person & even their pet. Well my family has a 1 & 1/2 year old pup!!! So we have a full understanding of what it takes to make time for your animal & fit them into your daily schedule. The way I care for pets whether it’s in my home or a client’s home is by giving plenty of affection & attention to the pet that I am with! When you provide that kind of love & gentleness it can help an animal feel at home no matter where they may be🤍
“Shanna is very punctual and accommodating. She took good care of my reactive dogs. Both of my dogs warmed up to her quickly. I would recommend her to anyone who wants their dogs to be in good hands.”

“I can not recommend Laura highly enough. She has been dependable and my dog Baxter loves her visits! She consistently sends updates and photos during the visits.”
Carolyn M.
“I have known Carolyn since we were teens and pets have always been her thing. She's had the same cats basically the whole time I've known her and it's like they havent even aged, and they're the sweetest cats I've ever met (but maybe I'm biased as their auntie tehe). My big shepherd loves her, I bring him everywhere with me or he'd be staying with her every time. Beyond being a great pet mom she's just a solid person, def someone you can trust in your home.”

Harmony has a gift with animals in a way where she is able to bond with them & it’s soo soo special to see🤍. She also has a great quality of being responsible, honest, & patient. It’s super important to carry those qualities with almost anything in life. Definitely recommend Harmony as a great option for pet-care!!!”
