“Amanda was amazing! She gave our dog such good care and sent us plenty of photos and updates on everything they did. She went above and beyond taking our dog for walks and letting her get lots of sniffs out and about!”

“Bethany is great to work with! She was very attentive to our animals needs and seemed to get along really well with them! We’d love to have her as a sitter in the future.”

“Johnny was recommended to us by friends and was great and easy to work with. Our puppy loved hanging out with him on her drop in. We will definitely be using Johnny again soon.”

“Samantha took great care of Sheba. Was on time and provided details of what was going on. She was even able to extend the time I needed her on a last minute notice. I will definitely use her to take care of Sheba and would highly recommend her to others”

“I had complete confidence wit Andrea and Jake while I was away. They showed great care with my dog and went over and beyond. Im happy I found them to care for my dog while Im gone”
“Ryan was so great! I have three dogs. Two pits and a rotty. My rotty is 13 and limps. He is who I worried about the most but Ryan was so patient with him, helped him up and gave him all the pets.”

“Sophia is amazing!! She did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Oreo. Oreo is a loving cat also and looked forward to Sophia’s daily visits. He would start meowing before she could even open the door. She cleaned up his litter that he tracked through the house and ensured he got a full 30 minutes of playtime. She also checked that he had fresh water daily. I would definitely use her again if I’m out of town.”

“AJ is like a cat whisperer! He is compassionate, professional, and highly communicative with all creatures of our home. We are always comforted in travel knowing we can safely and reliably leave our kitties and their medication needs in AJ’s care.”

“I’m glad we found Emma on rover! The care and consideration she gave our cats was unmatched. You can tell she truly cares for others animals and made sure our two cats had everything they needed and more. Thank you for your kindness, Emma!”

“Steph was an awesome drop in sitter for our dog Max. We highly recommend her because she was able to become buddies with our very active highly protective dog Australian Shepard cattle dog! She was telling the truth when she called herself the dog whisperer! She showed up on time and usually stayed longer than her 30 minutes which was great with us! She sent notes and pictures after every visit which allowed us to relax and not worry about Max! Thanks to Steph!!! We will definitely call on her again!”

“Very organized and constantly kept me updated and made me feel like my old girl was well taken care of and happy while I was away! Will definitely be using again and can definitely recommend for anyone looking for someone to take care of their fur-baby”


“Absolutely amazing! Natalie did more than asked and followed instructions perfectly. She was very communitive while I was away for a whole week. She played with kitties and they loved her!! Recommend.”

“Cynthia was quick to respond and able to work us into her schedule with our last minute requests. She didn’t hesitate to ask any questions if she was unsure of something - which I appreciate greatly. She was kind and gentle with the boys during our meet & greet and she clearly took great care of them during their visits. My older dog takes time getting used to people and it was obvious she was respectful of that with him. I will happily be booking her again!”

“Karen and Jason treated our babies like they were their own. They made quick friends with even our shyest cat and really made us feel SO MUCH BETTER about being away. I cannot recommend Karen enough!!”

About: I have some training experience Over 5yrs experience Dogs of all shapes and sizes Personalized care My longest running client is a Pitbull named Bear who, when i first met him would be very anxious on walks. Through years of working with him he's now a much more confident walker. So please believe me when I say I love dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I did recently start working in the area. I'm still very new to the area. I can usually accommodate upon requests. More so if scheduled in advance. Within my over 5 yrs experience caring for puppers I have cared for them at both my house and at my client's house. I have always maintained a clean environment, personalized care in that I will maintain your rules concerning your dog. Above ALL else I MUST maintain trust with my clients. If you or your dog don't trust me then I can't do my job and worse yet it's usually the dog that suffers in the long run.

Sophia has cat sat for me twice now, and she’s been wonderful both times. She is very communicative, attentive, and clearly cares a lot about the animals she watches. She took great care of my cats, followed their specific food needs carefully, and made sure to spend time playing with them as well. I always felt updated and reassured while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!

She was amazing! Rachel D. took care of my three cats over the weekend and did an outstanding job. From the very beginning, she proved to be responsible, attentive, and very caring with them. She kept me constantly updated with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. I would also like to highlight her professionalism, as even when I made a mistake in some of the instructions, she handled the situation perfectly and made sure my cats were well taken care of at all times. On top of that, she even helped me by bringing in some Amazon packages that were left outside, which I really appreciated. She definitely exceeded my expectations. It’s clear that she truly cares about animals and their well-being. I would trust her again without hesitation. Highly recommended!
