“Ann is one of the nicest Rover sitters we have ever used. Our senior dog has some anxiety, and Ann was so wonderful, and patient, with him. She reached out with updates and questions to ensure she was able to do all she could to make him comfortable and feel more at home with her and her family. We are grateful for all of her help and support and highly recommend Ann.”

“I recommend Heidi if you are looking for a sitter for your fur baby! She was very responsive to all questions and was great about having a meet and greet before the actual drop off date! She has a room that is dedicated to your fur baby so that he/she can have their own private space! She really took the time to listen about the specifics of our coonhound’s needs and routine! You can tell immediately that Heidi is a dog person and genuinely cares about and loves animals! Her dog loves having a playmate too! Her location is also awesome because it is not at a busy road and has more of a private setting so you don’t have to worry about cars being in the road when she walks them! We would definitely use her again!!”
