“Amazing as always!! I couldn’t recommend Carrington enough for any service you might need. She stayed at our house while we went out of town for a week and kept in constant communication with us the entire time, not to mention the amazing photos she takes!! Our house was so clean when we got home and it was such a relief to know we could trust our pups were in good hands while we were away!”

Ostrom pet parents share their Rover experiences
Christina is a super life saver! Not only does she take excellent care of Bella and Missy, she always leaves my home looking great. On this recent trip our plane ran into problems which delayed our arrival home by several hours, she came back, fed the girls dinner and stayed till their bedtime!

This was our second time booking Christina, and once again she did an excellent job! She stayed overnight with our two dogs and cat, took great care of them, and made sure everything was done perfectly. She’s wonderful with the pets, and I really appreciate that she even tidied up the kitchen and left the house just as we left it. We feel very comfortable having her in our home and will definitely continue booking with her.
