“Trisha was fabulous! We booked her for daily drop-ins with our 2 cats and she was always punctual, and always spent a full 30 minutes with them so they were fed and played with regularly. She really went the extra mile for us. One day she arrived to discover an ant infestation all over the dished (gross!!!) and she cleaned it all up and relocated the food to protect it from further ant incursions until our return. Our cats don't like strangers but they took to Trisha right away! You know you can count on Trisha. She's a very reliable, dependable person with her act together.”


“Kf is helpful. She is playing tossing game with Duke. Duke is happy. Sometimes she even spend more time than 30 mins which is required. She has positive attitude and works enthusiastically. She is a wonderful helper. We adore her.”


“We had such a great experience with Deborah! From the start, it was clear she really gets German Shepherds—and Maple absolutely loved her. You can tell from the photos that Maple was happy, well cared for, and had clearly been running around getting all her wiggles out. It’s wonderful to find someone who connects so naturally with our baby girl. So grateful to have found Deborah and already looking forward to our next visit!”

“We initially chose Tracey based on all her great reviews and returning clients. She was awesome taking care of our senior cat Brie. Tracey sent us daily updates with photos and videos. When our electricity was unexpectedly disrupted on a very hot day, she generously offered to take our cat to her home for care. This was truly going above and beyond her Rover requirements. We would not hesitate to hire Tracey again to care for any of our pets and we certainly plan to do so!”


About: I have always been drawn to the unique personalities and loyalty of our furry friends, and my passion for understanding their behavior has led me to pursue a studies and certifications in dog psychology. As a certified dog psychologist, I have undergone extensive training in canine behavior and have gained a deep understanding of the complex dynamics between dogs and their owners. I believe that every dog is unique and deserves a customized approach to their training and behavior modification. My goal as a dog psychologist is to help pet owners and their beloved dogs live harmoniously together by addressing behavioral issues, building strong bonds, and promoting positive reinforcement. I am committed to providing the highest level of care and support to both dogs and their owners. I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since my childhood. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to train, walk, feed and bathe their pets. I have great and deep experience of dealing with any size and breed of dogs. I find such spiritual peace and divine feeling to be with these furry creatures and love to spend time with them. I have been serving as a volunteer at local dog shelters as well. Its always nice to be around these pure souls and give them maximum love and care. I can make them a part of my routine and it's always fun to have them around and ensure they are happy, calm and engaged productively. I love to take long walks, play, and make them learn new things in a fun way. I always plan my day in an organized way to ensure the furry buddy is getting appropriate time for meals, training, play, rest, breaks and be merry. Its always fun to bond with them in a calm way to make them embed in your routines. So it comes so naturally and automatically that we spend a happy day and time just fly. With my vast dog handling experience, I always ensure safety, security and health of our four legged babies. I have seen all the scenarios and always apply prevention, intervention and correction approaches for making the babies well behaved and happy. I am a trained dog behaviorist and psychologist as well, that helps me to predict and sense any specific needs of our furry friends and ensure everything is proactively taken care.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I have taken care of many dogs. I’ve also had bunnies, hamsters, hermit crabs, birds growing up. My dog has also had babies.

I also love walking and being with nature, so it would be fun to take out some new doggies for walks.
