“Christine was fabulous. She was conscientious and took great care of our cat. She is the first cat sitter we’ve booked (of 2-3 Rover sitters) who has actually come at exactly the time we asked her, consistently. Beyond that, when our travel plans had to change because of airline problems, Christine kindly agreed to extend the booking - even though it was the holidays and I’m sure she had other obligations.”

“We had a short notice need for a sitter for “the girls”, Peaches & Reagan, and Emma and Trent responded promptly and were able to accommodate our schedule. It is so nice being able to count on someone and have “the girls” get so excited when they see them. Reagan for the extra attention and Peaches for an opportunity to get treats. LOL Dont hesitate if you need someone to watch your fur babies. They will be safe and and well taken care of. Thanks again Emma & Trent!”

She was able to bond immediately with Champ and you could tell how much h she loved dogs and throughly enjoyed Taking care of him. She is absolutely the best!!
Sydney is wonderful with my pups. My little girl pup is a loving, easy going baby but our boy had a rough start in life. He was neglected and abused so he gets a bit nervous with new people. Sydney really read him well and understood him right away. He warmed up to her very quickly because she gives him the time and space he needs to be able to trust. Having someone in our home when we aren’t was another big deal for us and Sydney really is just so trustworthy and respectful. We are so grateful that she comes and loves our pups when we are at work! I highly recommend reaching out to her if you’re looking for a reliable, responsible and trustworthy person to look after your pets!
D’Andre was a big help, came through last minute for me to take care of Rex while I was away for a trip. He was very nice to Rex, attentive and even took care of doggy spill Rex had. Super communicative during the visit and I’m glad I hired him and will hire him more in the future.
