“Alex is the best and we trust her entirely with our beloved kittens when we’re traveling! She’s super responsible, reliable, and loving towards our boys. Highly recommend!”


2. Kelsey D.

“We loved having Kelsey take care of our pup, Easton! We were in a bind and having Kelsey swing by to take Easton out and ensure she was taken care of gave us so much peace of mind. Will definitely be requesting her help again in the future :)”


3. Maya L.
“I don’t have a dog myself, but I’ve seen firsthand how amazing Maya is with them. She’s one of those people who just gets animals. Dogs instantly warm up to her, and she treats every one of them like her own. I’ve watched her care for other people’s dogs with so much love, attention, and patience, and it’s honestly really impressive. Anyone who has her watching their pup is seriously lucky!”


4. Yue Yue W.

“Wow! Relief and peace of mind is exactly what Sammy provided during our booking! Thank you SOO much for the top tier care and service during the drop-ins. I got clear and prompt communication from Sammy through out the whole stay. I have two big, kind of difficult, dogs and that was my initial worry to find someone that could be a good fit for them and even though Sammy is fairly new to Rover, her expertise and action tells me she’s a natural and a wonderful care taker! Thank you again SOO much Sammy, I know who to trust my pups to now!!”

“Ariana was the perfect sitter while I was out of town for over a week! I knew my kitty was in good hands with her and was getting a lot of attention during their visits. She gave detailed updates, lots of pictures, and didn’t mind starting the visit earlier than planned when I was having anxiety and needed an update. I would highly recommend booking with Ariana!”
