“Liz W. loves animals. She cared for our boxer for two weeks during the dog flu pandemic a year and a half ago when we were advised not to board him. We had the trip planned prior to our adoption of Chance. Liz to the rescue!! She took great care of our home and Chance. Occasionally she will call to say hi and Chance goes nuts when he hears her voice.”

11. Breanna W.
“I highly recommend Breanna's pet sitting and dog walking service! Her love and care for animals shine through in every interaction. She has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my animals. Breanna not only takes fantastic care of my pets, but her own dog Ivy is a testament to her dedication and compassion. Knowing that Ivy is so well-loved and cared for reassures me that Breanna treats every pet with the same level of attention and affection. Every time Breanna has looked after my pet, I've returned to the happiest furball ever! Her reliability, professionalism, and genuine love for animals make her my go-to pet sitter. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, look no further than Breanna!”

14. Ashton B.
About: Hi, I'm Ashton! I grew up with both cats and dogs and truly love both, as well any other furry/scaly/feathery animal you might have. I was also a nanny for about 8 years and in addition to caring for the children and the home, I took care of the pets of each family I worked for. I have experience with puppies and kittens to older, slower animals and always cater my care to a pet's unique needs and personality. I'm more than happy and able to assist with any medication administration, training, and exercising of high-energy dogs. As someone with a million photos of my cats and dog, I will also make sure you get the cutest shots of them living their best lives while you are away. Over the years of experience with child, home, and pet care, I have proved myself to be reliable and flexible and hope to gain your pets' and your trust. I look forward to meeting you! I have a flexible schedule and can be available any day of the week for drop-ins, walks, and overnights. Whether it's early mornings or late nights, I can be your reliable source for pet care! I never rush an animal to be comfortable with me but will gladly give them the love and attention they need when they're ready! I always make sure to listen closely to any guidance given to me by pet owners to make every visit go smoothly.
15. Camille P.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. All shapes and sizes. From Guinea pigs to chickens, pugs to pitties! Rest assured knowing that your loving pets are being cared for by an experienced hand! I am a teacher so I am available in the afternoons and weekends. With holidays, or random days off I may have more availability. Just check in! I use Rover very frequently for my own pets, so I fully understand the need for respectful and loving care. Please feel free to leave as detailed instructions as needed ( I know I do! Lol).
16. Joseph O.
“Joe was great! I booked him to walk Graé several times while I flew to Detroit for an interview. Unfortunately, Graé suffered a dog attack the day before I was set to leave so that added a little more burden on Joe than anticipated. Joe walked, fed and administered Graé's meds in the evening and the morning. To make sure they got along Joe stopped by my place the night before for a meet and greet with my pup. While gone, Joes sent photos and updates to his time with him; I great help! I will definitely be using joe again if the need arises and he's available.”
17. Casie L.
