10. Cecilia G.

“It was my first time using this app, I felt hesitant at first but, I had an AMAZING experience with Cecilia! She was incredibly responsive and kept me updated during every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind. Penny was comfortable with her from the very start, and I truly appreciated her urgency in making sure Penny feel safe and at ease. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!”


11. Caryn J.

“Thank you so much for doing such a great job taking care of my cat. She warmed up to you quite quickly, which was really nice to see. I also appreciated all the reports with pictures—they definitely helped ease my mind since this was her first time being home alone. Thank you for doing such a fantastic job!”


12. Robyn R.

“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be more happy with Robyn who took care of my pup, Huckeberry while we were out of town for the weekend. She went above and beyond to love on him and play with him. You can definitely tell that she has lots of experience with dogs in the way she interacted with Huckleberry - not letting him jump, still making him listen to her commands, etc - but also showing him so much love and affection. He was in good hands, and I will be requesting her for future pup sitting when needed.”


13. Liz I.

“Liz was amazing with our two dogs. One of which is very picky who he warms up to. Liz did a great job befriending him and gaining his trust. We will definitely use Liz when she’s available.”


14. Sofia W.

“My pups looked super happy. Sofia is very responsive and communicates well.”


15. Emy W.

“Emy did a great job with my crew. I really enjoyed receiving the photos she sent and was able to see how well the pets were interacting with her. My house was neat and tidy when I returned which I appreciated. Emy had an extra task this set of visits and she rose to the occassion and I was most grateful for her help with it. Thank you! I very much recommend Emy to care for your pets and home.”


16. Sofia D.

“Sofia was extremely helpful with taking care of my dogs when I was away on vacation. I will definitely use her services again in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a quality dog sitter!”


17. Michelle L.
“I highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a reliable, caring and professional dog walker. Michelle has helped pet sit and walk my dog many times in the past. She is always on time, communicates well, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. I love receiving updates and photos from each walk, and it’s reassuring to know my dog is in good hands.”


18. Keishli F.

“Keishli was amazing! We booked last min and she responded quickly and professionally, we loved getting the updates every day we where away! We will definitely book again with her!”


19. Taylor F.
About: I’ve grown up around animals pretty much my whole life. I have two fur babies of my own. A senior kitty I’ve had since high school and my two year old calico baby who is a shy girl. I have two cats of my own that are my absolute world! Even though they are very independent, I still come home during lunch breaks from work to check on them and make sure they are okay. Will follow directions given by clients to make sure your fur babies are taken care of to the best of my ability. Will be your pets best friend while you’re away :)


20. Emily & Veronica V.
“Emily and Veronica are amazing pet sitters! They do a wonderful job! They provide great updates on our fur babies which is very important to my husband and I. From the start we knew they would provide excellent care for our babies. Knowing that they are pet owners themselves, we knew they would care for them like their own. I wholeheartedly recommend Emily and Veronica! 🐾 Rachel & Ed”
