“5 stars! Rita went above and beyond for our 14 year old Louis. She is very reliable, responsive, gives good updates and is very caring with her animal guests. We will definititely ask for Rita again!!!”
“She took great care of our dog while we were on vacation. We got photos and updates throughout the week. Great communication with us. This was a first for us and she was very reassuring.”
“Casta was very well cared for and I am sure she thoroughly enjoyed her stay with Andres and two other canine friends at the home. Andres kept me updated throughout the stay on how Casta was getting along and fitting in with the group. We will definitely use Andres again for future boarding.”
“Our pup, Hudson stayed with Olivia for a week. She communicated with us throughout Hudson’s stay and sent us lots of pictures of him playing. We could not be happier with her! Will definitely be using her again in the future!!”
“Enrica and her husband are above and beyond, they are super warm and welcoming! Both meet & greet arrangement and App communications are smooth and swift. They care and treat your pet as their own. My dog enjoys spending time with them so much!”
“My elderly Boxer spent a week with Nick and I think she had a pretty good time. We got regular pictures and updates from Nick that really helped ease our mind that she was doing ok. Nick always responded quickly to our texts or calls and his dog, Lady, is very friendly. Thanks a lot Nick for taking care of Macy so well!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Aaron took such great care of Rufus while we were away. He kept us updated with lots of photos and great communication throughout the week. We really appreciated the extra attention to his comfort and well-being. Rufus clearly loved his stay and honestly didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend!”
“Adriene was fabulous! My cockapoo seemed very comfortable and at ease. Adriene sent multiple daily updates and photos. She was very flexible. This was my first time using Rover in the area and she made the experience seamless. Will definitely be using her again!”
“My dog LOVES going to Joseph’s house. She knows when we’re nearby and gets so excited in the car. It’s like camp for her. Joseph sends the best updates, photos, and videos and he will love your dog like his own.”
“Yuliia did an stellar job taking care of our little cat Zelda. We got daily pictures, where we could see our little cat very comfortable at her place, enjoying every day there. It was reassuring seeing her have such a good time, and we will definitely be requesting Yuliia to take care of Zelda if we need it again.”
“Sara is the best! She is kind, fun, and loving! Mina loves to be at Sara's house as she never cries to leave once left at Sara's home. She also loves Sara's dog, Penny. It is heartwarming to see how they play together. I know Sara takes good care of Mina as she communicates with me on a regular basis as to how Mina responds to her care. We have a good working relationship and Mina clearly loves to be with Sara and her family! Can't wait until the next visit! I know I can count on Sara to treat Mina as her own.”
“Jenning was communicative, responsible, and sent regular updates (including the cutest photos). I came home to a happy, calm pup who had clearly been well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jenning again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind dog sitter!”
“Marissa was fantastic with my dog! She took her on multiple walks and even to a dog park. I loved receiving pictures of all their fun adventures and cozy snuggles on the couch. Honestly, I was a little worried my dog might not want to come back home with us! 😂”
“Jordan was so helpful and good with Harper. She sent me so many photo and video updates which made me feel so much better about being away. Harper had an accident and Jordan washed her blanket! She has a nice fenced in yard for the dogs to run around, sniff, and get all of their energy out.”
“Carolyn and Jonathan were amazing sitters for my dog Odie (big boy with separation anxiety issues). They are very caring and I felt very comfortable entrusting them with watching a part of my family. Both of them took the time to understand any special needs he may need and made his stay very easy. You do not have to worry about anything if you book them. I will be requesting their services again for sure.”
About: I have taken care of pets most of my life. I’ve mostly handled cats and dogs, but I also have experience with bearded dragons 😊 I really do love all animals! I work M-F as a nurse but I’m usually done by 3:00 in the afternoon. I’ve found I really need something to do in my free time and I couldn’t think of anything better than taking care of some pets! As a nurse, safety is very important to me. I would use my days off to dedicate all my time to your pet, their happiness, and safety 😊
“Kim was amazing. She takes loads of pictures and updates on the daily’s of her time with your animal. She takes long walks in parks and will get all the energy out of your dog. Her energy will radiate the minute you meet her.”
