“I couldn't recommend Jen more! I knew from previous experience working with her that she was great with animals and there was no one better to trust my animals with. I have an anti-social husky who most people want to pet and interact with right away but Jen was so good about listening to me about her behaviors and respecting her space. She was able to read her body language well to know when she did and did not want to interact and was just understanding of her needs. I trust very few people with my pets and Jen is one of them!”


“Nicole did a really great job with our boys! She went above and beyond and even bought them doggy ice cream because of the hot weather. I’d recommend her to any of my friends or family. She always replied to my messages super quickly, and provided updates along the way. Thank you for taking such good care of our doggies in our space!”


“Maria is so kind and thoughtful with both the pet and pet parent. She has a gentle nature that’s great for pets with anxiety. I would be happy to work with her again.”


“We are so grateful we met Kaitlyn! She took amazing care of our little Lucy and our home over the long weekend. She was very kind, patient and understanding, and helped ease our anxiety as new dog owners and having to leave our brand new baby for a few days. We will definitely ask for her help again!”


“Kija is the best! She took great care of our pup in our home while we were away for two weeks. She sent lots of updates of walks and snuggles. She also took great care of our space and left things spotless for us to come home to. I would trust Kija any day with my pup! Thanks again!!”


“Everything was super smooth and easy. Wonderful communication, as we received updates and pics. Our two pups were so relaxed when we arrived home and it was good to know they were in good care. Will be booking more dates with Zana very soon!”


“Preaundrea has watched Sammy a couple of times now and has done a great job. She is very attentive, making sure she checks with me if she notices something out of the ordinary like his allergies. She is a good communicator and makes sure to send updates and photos. I am happy to know Sammy is well taken care of when I am away.”


“Mitchell was excellent with our pup!!! He took great care of her and was very communicative throughout his stay. We will definitely book with Mitchell again!”


“Jessica just did a 5 day stay with my pups while I was away. She was so attentive, giving me just the right amount of updates throughout my trip. She was very communicative and easy to coordinate with. I came home to happy healthy pups who got plenty of cuddles! Will definitely be booking with her again!”



“This was my 2nd time using Rover.com. Wow, what can I say. Jackie is just awesome. She is kind, attentive, and she follows instructions very well. She communicates well, and put my mind at ease while on vacation. I am looking forward to using her again soon!”


“Chantel has great communication skills and left my home just how I left it. I really felt like my puppy was taken care of. Will be booking again.”


“This was the first time we used Victoria’s service. I was really in a bind and needed somebody for 10 days. We met with her prior to leaving. I asked for references and she provided them. I have house cameras, and was able to watch how she interacted with the dogs. My dogs were both apprehensive about her at the beginning of her first visit. She took calm control of the situation, and soon she had won them both over. A few days in and I was completely at ease. She sent me videos and pictures regularly. We will definitely use Victoria again.”


“This is our second time using Michael. Michael did a great job with our babies once again. He kept them busy with going to the park and walks. Thank you so much”


“Peter spent two nights at our house with our dog and cat, and he was great! He sent pictures, updated us each day on how things were going, and left the house spotless. We'd definitely be happy to have Peter petsit for us again.”


“She was patient with my small pomchi. My dog is not very friendly but she just needs time to adjust. Patricia was very patient and waited until they became friends”


“Jasmine was fabulous with my pup and kitty! She followed their schedules, made the extra effort to play and train with my pup, kept everything clean, communicated frequently, and was an all around super star! After the first day, I didn’t even need to check in that often because she was doing such a fabulous job of updating me and sending pics!! 100/10 totally recommend :)”

“Emily took good care of a very shy cat, making her feel comfortable and easing the stress of our being away.”


About: I am dependable and reliable when I am needed. Pets enjoy playtime and walks with me. I’ve had dogs all my life since I was a child and have been taking care of my own and neighbors for years. I have an open schedule at the moment so am pretty free to help with dog walking and sitting needs that you may have at the moment. In my home and others that I have taken care of, I make sure the dogs have fun and lots of outside time depending on the weather. Otherwise, inside play is kept to areas when pets are allowed and free to be.

“Andrew took amazing care of our elderly dog and cat. Everyone was fed, walked and snuggled! Regular updates helped keep my mind at ease while away, would definitely book again!”
