Kate was excellent to work with . We couldn’t have asked for anyone better . She met with us before taking care of our cats. She took care of our two “ boys” for three days and even sent us a photo of them looking very content. Upon arriving home our “cat areas” were tidy and the medicine needed for one of my cats was administered correctly. We definitely would ask Kate to care for our cats again! 😸😸

Gillian is absolutely amazing! From the moment we met her, we felt confident that our dogs were in good hands. It’s clear how much she cares and loves animals. Our girls were so happy and relaxed when we returned, and we loved the updates and photos she sent while we were away. We were able to relax and not worry about the girls while we were gone. Gillian went above and beyond, not only taking care of the dogs but also ensuring everything at home was in order. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and kind dog sitter, Gillian is it!

Arin really helped me out with a last minute request for a drop in visit. She took really good care of my puppy, sent me lots of cute pics, and a little note about how Koda was doing. It really set my mind at ease that he looked so happy.

Patricia is always prompt, a good communicator, and takes good care of my Lil ones. I'm a repeat client because she gives me peace of mind with her updates, photos, and letting me know how my pets are so I can spend less time worrying and either spend more time enjoying my time or focusing on work while I'm away.

She did an amazing job! My one cat has anxiety problems, but did not do her typical freak outs while I was gone. Both of my cats seemed to really like her, & she made sure to keep in contact with me :)

My two cats were very calm when I came home after Brad and Mery had been taking care of them. That told me they’d gotten reliable, unobtrusive care that let the cats go on with their normal lives even when I was away. I appreciated the daily messages as I tend to worry. Brad and Mery’s dependable, kind and no-fuss care was exactly what my two needed. Highly recommend.

I booked Savannah for the 4th of July weekend to do a few drop-in visits with my senior cat while I was away. Savannah gave my cat her meds twice a day and gave her some wet food. Savannah was very prompt with communication and answered all of the questions I had for her. This was the first time I used Rover and Savannah was a great first experience. I would definitely book with Savannah in the future.

Adrianna did a couple drop in visits while we were out of town on vacation to hang out with our cat. Adrianna was amazing with our Zoey, giving Zoey the attention she deserves while we were gone, and was prompt and friendly to communicate with. We plan to hire her again for other times we need someone to stay with our cat or dog!

About: I have had dogs in my household since I was 6 years old and my family members (aunts/uncles, grandparents, etc) have always had all kinds of different dogs. I have always been involved in the training and care for the dogs in my home. I am a student so I have classes in the morning and then I am free all day afterwards. Once a week I work at a restaurant but the shifts are never more than 6 hours long. I can provide any care needed for any pet, feeding, treats, going outside and going on walks, playing and letting them rest with love surrounding them.

Blair was always on time and trusted when caring for our cat, Marley. Marley does not warm up to most people and she was able to handle her with ease and confidence. There are very few people we trust to take care of our cat, and Blair was always willing to help!
