1. Tracy E.
“Tracy did a great job with our dog, Carlos! This was a last minute decision when our regular dog sitter was unavailable. Tracy was able to meet us and Carlos a couple of days in advance. He sent pics while he checked on Carlos. We would definitely trust Carlos with Tracy again in the future and will refer others to book him as well! Thank you!”
2. Garrett R.
“Garett was wonderful. He sent photos of our pups every day, stayed at the house and took care of it (a real perk to know someone was loving on my boys daily just as we would. He let us know when he’d be out, he was so communicative and even fed the cat when she happened to run out of food a few days before we returned (she’s a fat cat!). The pups seemed to adjust well to him and the meet and greet beforehand was super helpful so they knew we approved of him. All in all we would highly recommend Garrett to our friends and family. He did a great job and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again.”

“Brianna was simply Amazing!!! She kept us updated on how Buster was doing and included pictures of him enjoying time with his sitter. She even fixed one of our TV remote issues we had during her stay lol. She was very professional and treated our dog like he was her own. Would DEFINITELY recommend her to anyone for care of their furbabies.”

10. Mary C.
“Mary was absolutely incredible with our senior dog Connie. She followed all the care instructions really well and provided daily updates while we were on vacation. She even offered to stay later to wait for us to board our flight to make sure we were making it home on time in case of any delays or cancellation. She also cleaned up our place, washed the sheets and dishes which we never expect pet sitters to do, but it was amazing to come home late and not having to do laundry. We won’t hesitate to book with Mary again next time we are on vacation”

17. Stephanie M.
“Stephanie was amazing with our dog. She sent us frequent updates while we were away which gave us great peace of mind and she was a great listener with all of the little details of our goofy (and sometimes challenging) dog. She cleaned up after any messes he made and got him a variety of types of exersize as well as making sure he ate his food. She let us know about any problems and asked us how we would like them handled if she hadn't already taken care of it. She even brought a toy for him! Stephanie was such a blessing and we will be inviting her back if we travel in the future.”
18. Sarah S.
About: Hello! My name is Sarah and I would love to care for your pet. I have been around cats, dogs, reptiles, horses, and more all my life and would absolutely love the chance to get to know your furry friend. I have an excellent grasp of animal body language and a calming presence that allows me to make quick friends with animals of any kind. My services are open right now for dog walking and dog/cat/reptile in-home visits. Rest assured your furry family will receive all the love, patience, and compassion they require. Your pet’s care will be a load off your mind while they’re in my care! Right now, Rover pet care is one of my top priorities along with a part-time job. I’ll be able to care for any pets for multiple hours each day that is required. While walking your dog I will ensure they get enough time to get their energy out, sniff their outdoor curiosities, and tossing around a toy or two wouldn’t hurt! For in-home dog/cat visits, I’ll be sure to play, feed, and spend time with your furry family to ensure they stay happy, safe, and healthy for your return. If any issues or questions arise I will not hesitate to contact you!
19. Paris S.
“Paris was wonderful. She was very communicative and took wonderful care of our house. Our dogs were happy and healthy when we got home. I will definitely be calling her again!”
20. Derik G.
“Derik has always done an excellent job taking care of my babies. I have two pigs and they are a lot different to care for than other animals, but Derik made sure to follow all my instructions to the T. He takes extra time out of his day to spend with my piggies and love on them. He’s an 11 out of 10! I will definitely recommend his services to all my family and friends!”
