“Mariana went above and beyond. She exceeded my expectation. Definitely will book again and you can feel at ease knowing she is truly doing this for the love of your pets!”




2. Amber & Nico W.

“Robby loved Amber! Would recommend her and Nico for walks. This was Robby’s first walk using Rover, so it was great getting a good first experience.”


3. Brianna M.

“Brianna is a friendly, responsible, dog loving person. I've seen first hand what great care she gives to her own dog (Rex). When she got him, he was not cared for by his previous owner at all. He was covered in fleas, did not have any of his shots and was anemic. Brianna has taken excellent care of him, taking him to vet appointments to get his shots, gave him a good diet and lots of exercise, but most of all lots of love. Rex is now happy and healthy. Brianna is an excellent dog caregiver and I'd definitely recommend her.”


4. Hannah S.

5. Alexander B.

6. Zack & Mariah P.


“Fabulous sitters. Flexible with challenging and ever-changing schedules. Professional, responsible, trustworthy, send great pictures. They charge a bit more than some sitters, but are worth every penny”

About: I’ve had my Maltipoo since I was 12 and he’s been with me through every thing even college so I understand the difficulty of finding someone you trust to watch your fur babies. He doesn’t have any eyes and hasn’t for the last 4 years so that’s an added challenge and I want to be able to provide others with quality dog watching they can trust just like I look for when hiring someone for my dog. I’ve been dog sitting for about 10 years and can provide references. I’ve been flown to different states to house and dog sit for families because they knew they could trust me. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule so it makes it easy to provide care for different schedules and needs! I have a fenced yard with a pool and considering my dog can’t see I’m typically supervising outside time and my other dog is very anxious to be alone so I am used to being there when pets are outside. My home is dog friendly considering I have 2 dogs myself, one small dog and one medium dog. Both dogs get along well with people and other dogs and have had dogs stay with us and we haven’t had issues yet!


8. Eli O.
“Eli is a responsible and caring pet owner. He has many years of experience taking care of his own dogs and cats. He’s always willing to take dogs on long walks and hikes. He is reliable, consistent, and a good communicator. You’re pet will be well taken care of by Eli!”


9. Carly W.

“I have a pretty easy dog but it helps to have someone who actually wants to hang out with dogs. THANK YOU CARLY!!!!!!!!!!!”




10. Elizabeth L.
“Winter and I love Elizabeth! She is amazing and makes me feel better knowing my little guy is walked while I am taking care of patients at the hospital! Your pet is in good hands!”


11. Isabel C.

“Isabel saved me by walking Percy on Christmas day on an extremely short notice. She was extremely punctual, and Percy loved her as well.”


12. Nadia B.
“Nadia is excellent with animals! She is patient and loving even with the most difficult pets. She is reliable and available! We feel confident going out of town and knowing our dog is in great hands! I would highly recommend Nadia!”


13. Sylvia M.

“Sylvia was punctual and reliable and took great care of my dog while I was out of town.”


14. Nicole C.
“Nicole is very responsible and I would 100% trust her to take care of my dog and make her feel loved. She has been an animal lover all her life and will go the extra mile for the dogs she walks. She has her own dog and therefore is experienced in reading signals and knowing what dogs need depending on the circumstances. I would and have trusted her with my own dog, the most important thing in my life! Highly recommend.”


15. Brittany P.

“Brittany was so great with Lady Bugg and adjusting to some scheduling changes. Lady Bugg looked forward to her walks every day and felt so attended to. Brittany responds so quickly and is willing to accommodate you and your dog's needs. I know Lady Bugg is already looking forward to seeing her soon!”


16. Kiersten B.
“I highly recommend Kiersten and trust her fully with my beloved shiba inu, Sally. We just went out of town over this past holiday season and our dog watcher plans fell through at the last minute. Usually a family member watches her but couldn't this time so I had to find a solution in a pinch. Normally I'm very hesitiant to let strangers in my home let alone trust someone I've never met to take care of my furbaby. Using Kiersten for the first time was a great experience. She was always on time and dependable and she treated my Sally just like she was her own. The trust alone is worth it's weight in gold.”


17. Adelynn P.
“Adelynn is an amazing pet sitter! She took care of my baby Shih Tzu, Tina, and I couldn't be more grateful for her exceptional care. Adelynn's genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does. She made sure Tina was comfortable, happy, and well-loved throughout her stay. Adelynn was attentive to Tina's needs, providing plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. Her professionalism and warm personality gave me peace of mind, knowing Tina was in great hands. I highly recommend Adelynn to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”


18. Christina A.
“Christina is genuinely the sweetest girl I have come to meet, and you can see the passion in her eyes when she is taking care of dogs! I have hired her to dog-sit for my own pup, and my Labrador retriever was sad to see her go, but oh so happy to have made a new human friend! I wouldn’t trust anyone more than Christina, what a girl. 10/10!!”


19. Susan G.
“Susie is great with animals. She is also responsible, timely and trustworthy. Whether you need her to walk them, feed them, play with them, or just pet-sit them for a bit, she's your person. I trust her with my pets completely!”


20. Nichole T.
“Nichole watched my fur babies for a week over the summer. My dogs immediately were attached to her and I could tell she treated my babies as her own. She kept the house very clean, taking out the trash, etc... I would gladly have her watch my babies anytime.”
