1. Shelly G.
“Shelly was great with my 2 year old Pitbull Dalmatian mix, I highly recommend! Shelly came for a meet & greet on very short notice & impressed me immediately. She was very gentle & comforting to my timid, reactive, & nervous momma from the 1st moment they met! Shelly is punctual, trustworthy, & very good with communicating (even checked how many treats she should be giving?) to owners! I will 100% sure have Shelly sit for my baby again! Thank You Shelly!!”
2. Alexandra C.
“Every time Alex has taken care of my dog, she has always been not only respectful to me, but respectful and caring to my dog. It always a plus whenever a pet sitter treats your pet with care and respect”
3. Lucky S.
“This will be a different type of review for Lucky. Unfortunately we did not have the chance for Lucky to come over and complete a drop in due to our bulldog Stanley crossing the rainbow bridge. Stanley and Quinoa both absolutely loved meeting Lucky at our meet and greet. Lucky took care of the Rover side of things and handled everything so we didn't have to due to our circumstances. Theyre very kind and thoughtful, and in the future we will be booking with Lucky 🖤”
4. Maria Socorro B.
“Maria was available on short notice and did an amazing job. I was heading out of town and she not only came over for a meet & greet the night of the booking, but she was able to check in on my dogs over the upcoming weekend.”
5. Jody P.
About: I have raised my fur babies as well as taken care of family and friends throughout those years. I have administered medications and cared for sickly pups. I have walked, cleaned up after, bathed and fed mine and their pets. I have a pretty flexible schedule with the line of work I currently am in. I have the freedom that most full-time positions doesn’t allow. I have a fenced in yard and one dog who I fostered during his Heart worm treatments in which I failed the fostering and Theo is now apart of my family.
6. Mikala K.
“Mikela is great!! She is very personable and was great with my dogs! My dogs literally compete to see who can get on her lap first!”
7. Amy J.
“Amy was personable, professional, and took great care of my 3 dogs when we went out of town. I needed a last minute dog sitter and Amy was extremely prompt in her acceptance and ironing out the details. She came over the next day to meet the boys and she made me feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. She kept me updated throughout the weekend and that was great. Thank you so much!!”
8. Shantai J.
“I highly recommend her to all of my friends. She’s trained mine & all my friends dogs. She’s always so loving & treating them like her own. She’s the perfect candidate. She also has years of experience as she’s known forever that she wanted to work with animals. I wouldn’t have anyone else watching, walking, or training my pups. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions but she’s the perfect fit.”
9. Sarah C.
About: I've been taking care of all sorts of pets my whole life. I am experienced with all ages from bottle feeding to diaper changing. I helped my cat deliver 5 healthy kittens, and I currently have 2 very spoiled cats. I had an elderly dog with bad hips. No matter how many accidents she had on the floor, she was never punished because she couldn't help it. I will take care of your fur babies as if they're my own. I currently work from home full time. I often have time in the early morning and end of the day to check in on your fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard. Any pets that are brought outside will have a leash and harness or collar. There is space in my home for crates if requested.
