“This is a second review. After 18 months of working from home, my 10 year old Shitzu/Terrier has gotten more anxious with others. Jill walked him for the first time since Oct 2020. My dog responded very well and as usually Jill was great with my anxious little guy. Jill is just great with him!”

5. Laren E.
“Laren was the first person I reach out on Rover for help with my pup Frank, and I couldn't be more pleased with my decision. From our meet and greet, to Frank's weekly walks, she has proven to be an amazing help with walking and playing with him. She is caring, patient, and professional, all of which give me peace of mind when I know Frank is in her care. I truly appreciate her detailed Rover cards after each walk, as well as the great pictures she provides. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help with their fur family, and I know both myself and Frank look forward to working with her for many walks to come!”

“Erick is extremely patient (my dog is supremely attached to only me) and cares for your dog like it is his own. He comes to me three times a week and is extremely reliable. I trust my dog with Erick and will use him for future boarding needs which is a big step since my dog is my world and there are few people I’d leave him alone with. Thank for everything Erick!”
