1. Aimee P.
“My cats adore Aimee to say the least. They may even like her more than they like me. She is so attentive and responsible. I love leaving them with her.”
2. Pamela A.
“Fantastic!!!We have two young, large dogs (German Shepherd and Bernese Mountain mixes) and Pamela earned their trust immediately and was super trust worthy while we had to be out of two for work unexpectedly. We don’t board our dogs, so we couldn’t leave them anywhere last minute and decided to use Rover for the first time. We will definitely use Rover going forward and highly recommend Pamela to everyone.”

About: I’ve got your dogs covered from 1-on-1 playtime, to obedience training and enrichment! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always been hands on with the dogs in my community as well! I’m the best fit for your fur baby because of my range in experience, commitment to having a healthy, happy and obedient furry friend and of course my snuggles are top notch! 😊 I’m currently working a split schedule on weekdays so I have 7 hours from morning till afternoon available to help walk, play or house sit your doggies whenever. My weekends are open and I’m often at a park in surrounding areas to catch some down time which is the perfect opportunity to run around with your fur friends! My home is securely fenced in the backyard and there are no obstacles such as a swimming pool. My front door has an alarm system and is kept shut throughout the day so dogs may not wander unsupervised. If needs be, I am able to crate your dog as I have a large sized crate with blankets and enrichment toys to keep the pups occupied 🐾
13. Kaitlyn D.
“Kaitlyn did a great job with my kitties again! She sent great updates and pictures and I can tell she gave them plenty of attention because they barely even registered that I was back. Thanks Kaitlyn!”
14. Aislyn R.
“Aislyn was wonderful with our puppy Scout. She was super responsive, on-time, and provided great pictures and write-ups of our visit. That was especially important to us as Scout is our first puppy and we were nervous about leaving her home alone for the first time. Scout always looked so happy in the pictures and when we came home from work!”
15. Ziran Z.
“Jason and wendy are the warmest couple. They love animals. I have a black and white cavalier poodle they are obsess with and when my dog Oreo sees them he would gets so excited and happy, would just follows them around everywhere and wants to play with them. Don’t hesitate to let them dog sit your pet! They are the sweetest!!”
16. Allison N.
“We had Allison puppy sit our 5 1/2 months old puppy for the first time and couldn't be happier. I had made a list and was very impressed that Allison asked about small details that I had omitted. She sent us photos and updates of how Phoebe was doing. I would definitely look to Allison again next time I need a good sitter/walker for Phoebe.”
17. Lane C.
“This was the first time we left our new cat, and I’m so grateful that Lane was available to watch her. She was gracious and kind to Misty and helped her to come out of her shell. She took care of everything and sent lots of pictures. I would highly recommend her!”
18. Emily F.
