14. Brigitt H.
“Brigitt took care of my furbabies when I was away out of town. They are senior kitties and for anyone who is an animal lover would fully understand the extra love and spoiling we love to treat out furbabies too. Brigitt showed the sweetest care for my cats and respected their quarks when it came to their needs while I was away. She is very understanding what ever your pet needs and pours out so much love every time she sees my fur babies. I will be happy to have Brigitt continue to watch my pets in the near future.”
15. Justin C.
About: Know what it's like to own dogs since childhood. Tell me what they love, like, and hate. Love to bring gifts for the dog(s) anytime. Also been a great house sitter and pet sitter for my mother in the past when she visited grandkids for a week in California. As far in advance as possible since I also do crowd management seasonally but haven't worked since April 1st. P.S. A page from the daily calendar for Life Hacks encouraged me to join and I do know someone on Rover.com named Stephen. He's a dog sitter, owner, and trainer. I live in a condo on the ground level with a patio and a view of Mill Creek. I'd prefer to house and/or pet watch at your place.
16. Danielle L.
“I would highly recommend Danielle! She is always on time and if you request a booking, she will respond quickly. My dog is an elderly girl, and very attached to my husband and I, but she trotted off on a walk with Danielle happily. She was immediately comfortable with Danielle which was a relief!”
17. Tianna C.
“Tianna took excellent care of my dog, I don’t have any experience with this app but I gave it a try and she did a great job and now she walks my dog every week.”
18. Daphne P.
“Daphne is genuinely so good with animals. She dog-sat for me regularly and always did an amazing job, even my dog Max, who generally doesn't like people, warmed up to her incredibly fast. She is the only person I trust with my pups since I know she will make sure they get the utmost care.”
19. Mark K.
“Mark has been pet sitting my 2 cats and dog for a few years now and I always trust him to take great care of my pets. He is attentive to their individual needs and always makes sure they get lots of play time and attention. Mark is responsive and communicative about any needs that come up. My pets seem to love him and feel very comfortable around him, even my one shy and somewhat standoffish cat! I will definitely continue to use Mark as a trusted pet sitter in the future!”
20. Catherine A.
“My pups, Prosciutto and Gumbo, absolutely adore Cat! She is so attentive and caring, and her scheduling is flexible. She’s my go-to for any pup care while I’m away or need a helping hand. Gumbo comes back from his walks with a his smile on his face, and Pru is happy for the adventure. Cat is a gem, and I’m so thankful for her trusting care.”
