This was my first time having someone stay at my house with my pup instead of bringing her somewhere. I completely trust Oli with her, it went well! I look forward to Oli helping my pup again for a wedding in September :)

Kyla did an amazing job. I had less stress with her taking care of my baby. Mo loved her. She was prompted, on time & communicated well. I will definitely be using her services again!

About: I have 3 cats and 2 mice, so I have a lot of experience taking care of cats and small animals. I love dogs and have pet-sat for my friends with small and medium size dogs I work a full time job Monday - Friday. I am available to do drop-ins before 7:30am or after 4:30 pm on weekdays. I am always available in the evenings or weekends. I will follow whatever guidelines the owner's give. Otherwise, my base care is to give dogs 2 walks a day and at least 30 minutes of playtime for both dogs and cats. Ensure the pets are fed and gone potty/clean litterboxes.

Hollie was great with our dog Cosita while we were away. Cosita is very timid but Hollie gave her space until she was comfortable. We came back to a super clean house and happy dog. Would totally recommend!

Alex was great with the dogs and was responsive to our messages. Was very impressed that he came over for a meet and greet and was taking notes and asking questions. Left the home so clean we couldn't even tell someone had been there. Highly recommend

We hired Allyson to house sit and watch our 2 labs for 11 days. This was our first time using Rover so we were a little nervous. But Allyson did a wonderful job watching over our house and our fur babies! She sent us daily pictures and updates throughout our time away and definitely put our minds at ease!

This was the first time I was leaving my fur babies overnight with someone other than friends or family and Kaycey was amazing! She was able to offer a meet and greet for my in-home request ASAP and meeting her was like meeting a friend! The care she provided for my pets was great! She was responsive, informative, and put me at ease. We will 100% use her again!!

Booking Nancy to watch our two greyhounds was the best decision ever made!!! She was very communicative and took great care of both of our girls. Our oldest is almost 12 and has some mobility difficulties, but Nancy made us feel right at ease that she was going to be well cared for. We loved getting a few updates a day on what our girls were up to and took all the stress away from our trip out of town.
