“Jamie was exceptional! She was very prompt, informative and overall a great person. She did very well with Halo, using the same commands and letting her sniff all her normal spots on walks.

11. Courtney K.
About: I used to work with dogs at a dog daycare when I was 19 and it really was the way I learned for my passions for animals. I really enjoy other animals as well as I’ve learned from my most recent endeavors with volunteering at a bird sanctuary in my home state and helping my grandmother raise and train her dog. I’m also no stranger to stepping in to care for cats and even pet rodents! I’m currently working part time at a breakfast cafe so I’m usually home in the mid afternoons and plan to spend a good chunk of my days doing rover services. I am very observant and wont follow or corner any of the pets I care for but I can keep a good eye on them without making any animals nervous. Safety is very important to me for both me and the pet I’m looking after.
12. Jill B.
“Jill is one of very few people I would trust with my dogs. She’s knowledgeable, responsible and so easy to work with. Pets come first for her and anyone would be so lucky to have her taking care of their pet!”
13. Callie B.
About: Looking for someone to love your fur baby the way you do? I’m Callie, and as an avid animal lover, I can promise to give patient, loving, fun to your best friend! I am a mom to three lovely cats, and an heavily involved aunt to a floof of a husky! I’ve looked after animals my whole life, and would love to give love to yours! I’ll travel to you and have a very open and flexible schedule to fit with you and your family’s needs. I also am trained in holistic nutrition and can help your pup or kitty feel their best, if you’re looking for help in that department! I can’t wait to hear from you and meet your best friend! I have an extremely flexible work schedule and can make just about anything work! I am very hands on if that’s what your baby needs (and can be hands off if they’re more reserved). I am very hands on if that’s what your baby needs (and can be hands off if they’re more reserved). Having a parent away can be so stressful for a pet, so making sure they know they are cared for is my top priority!
14. Alysha H.
“Alysha is the most responsible person especially for her age. She is an animal lover & is always picking up strays and dedicates her time to find a home for the. At this moment she has 2 dogs 3 cats and that is because she found suitable homes for a dog and 2 cats. I have no doubt she would be a great dog sitter.”
15. Malaysia D.
About: I’ve had Dogs my whole life I love everything about them people say I treat them like there human but to me they are lol It fits in perfectly with my schedule I work part time and I have a son who loves animals I also want to build a career They will be well taken care of the way they came to me is the same way they will be returned to you they probably aren't gonna wanna leave me
16. Jordan S.
“Jordan was wonderful with our 3 month old puppy! He responded within minutes, was very professional and came to meet our pup the day after we contacted him. Our pup took to him immediately, and Jordan came and walked him several days a week for three weeks. Each time, he was prompt, sent us pictures and a run down of how each walk went. Jordan was also very flexible with a few of our unexpected schedule changes. He is truly an ideal person to trust in caring for your dog, and we will absolutely be requesting his services again!”
17. Yvonne R.
“I have known Yvonne for two and a half years and she is one of the most responsible person I’ve ever came across. She has worked with children for many years and is adored by many. She is well-respected by her peers, included myself. It takes a lot to gain my respect too, with how millennials (and people in general) are nowadays. Yvonne is a prioritizer. She understands the urgency of matters and will always act upon what she thinks matters, regardless of how little the ‘issue’ may be. It’s hard to find someone like that because people like this, like her, are gems to our lives. Knowing who she is, Yvonne is 100% trustworthy and will leave your dog (and/or child) happier than ever. And if you don’t believe me, see for your own eyes and request her - you’ll never regret your decision!”
18. Liena B.

Of course if there’s different times don’t hesitate to ask me I can work around it ! I have 3 cats of my own, I can handle medicine given to them. I also can clip nails and bathe your fur babies !
19. Tatiana B.
“Tati is an exceptional caregiver for fur babies. Her nickname amongst family and friends is 'Tati Doolittle' because she has the gift of communicating with animals of all kinds. Tati has cared for my fur baby over the years while we go on vacation. We dropped the ball with socializing him as a puppy, but Tati has a unique ability in calming a dog's anxiety. She is the only person I trust to look after my fur son. Any fur parent would be lucky to leave their babies in her care.”
20. Lucas B.
“He's great with dogs! Extremely caring and knowledgeable. He is a TSA certified K9 Handler and trainer. Loves pets of all sizes and breeds. He's watched my 4 dobermans many times. Highly recommend”
