“Xinshi is awesome and my dogs really enjoyed the drop in visits. She keeps me updated before and after the visits, and took some pics of the dogs walking and playing each time. Would highly recommend her service.”

She has a gift for identifying the unique personalities and needs of each pet, tailoring her care so that every one of them receives the love and attention they deserve. Whether it's an energetic dog that needs long walks, a cat that enjoys quiet moments, or an exotic animal with specific requirements, Claudia handles it with the expertise and care that only someone truly passionate can offer.”

8. Pam G.
“Pam was kind and attentive from the start. She’s relaxed and easy to work with. Friendly too! She asked questions to be sure about what we requested. We got consistent feedback on Rover (using Rover cards I had no idea about) about her daily visits (including photos!) caring for our sweet kitty, Ruby! We’ll definitely call on Pam again. We are grateful we found her and so is Ruby!”
9. Aaron M.
“Aaron travelled out of state to take care of my dog Rogue and watch my house for 2+ weeks. He is an incredibly responsible sitter and was extremely dedicated to Rogue's care. He was very intuitive in what needed to be taken care of with minimal guidance from me, including watering plants, taking down trash/recycling, getting the mail and cleaning up after Rogue in the backyard, and allowed me to feel secure that my home and pet were well cared for and loved while I was out of the country. Rogue had so much fun that upon my return, he acted like I had only been gone for a few hours!”
10. Connie W.
“Connie did daily drop ins to check on Mercury for us. She was incredibly helpful, understanding and empathetic, and we felt much better knowing she was looking after Mercury. Would highly recommend her to anyone needing a cat sitter.”

13. Alan A.
“Alan was very comfortable and kind to my large dogs which speaks volumes about his abilities. They can be very overwhelming upon first meeting and he was cool as a cucumber. Took great care and played with them while I was away. I Highly recommend him for everyone.”
14. Diana & Michael G.
“Diana and Michael were so kind and professional. I felt extremely safe leaving Reptar in their hands. He requires a wagon and to be lifted, so not for everyone, but Michael was able to assist my big/little guy and get him out while I was out of town for the day. Thank you so much for being so kind and sweet to my guy.”

19. Rylie L.
“Rylie is great! She’s checked in on our kitties while we were an away a few times now and she’s always gone above and beyond. This last time she even fed our new clown fish too! Thank you Rylie for being there for us and being so reliable! Elisa, Winston and Calvin say thank you too! 😊❤️”
20. Johnamae A.
“I can’t recommend Mae enough for pet sitting and dog walking on Rover. She treats every dog as if they’re her own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. She’s incredibly dedicated to routines, always sticking to feeding and walking schedules, and even hand-feeds her dogs to ensure they’re comfortable and cared for. Mae goes the extra mile by grooming them and wiping them down after each walk to keep them clean and tick-free. One of the things I admire most is how she makes training sessions fun for the dogs. You can see her genuine joy and connection with animals in the way she interacts with them. She’s thoughtful, responsible, and just an all-around incredible person who truly loves animals. Any pet would be lucky to be in her care.”
