“Kade was absolutely amazing! Very responsive and so many adorable pictures of my fur babies—just what I needed to brighten my day at work! 10/10 recommend! Will definitely be booking again! Thank you, Kade!”
“Kate was fabulous with my dog and my roommate's dog from the very beginning! My girl is usually loud and unfriendly with strangers but warmed up to Kate almost immediately. Everything about the experience was wonderful and I'd absolutely recommend Kate.”
“Devinder was great! He was punctual, provided a great report and was very communicative. My pup seemed happy and refreshed when I got home. We will definitely be calling him again!”
“Lee was awesome, very responsive and professional. My dog is very difficult and it wasn’t a match with Lee, but I would highly recommend him to anyone!! He is a trustworthy dog sitter (and Bugs loved him!)”
“Felicia was reliable, caring, and communicative during the whole process. Her Rover cards made it abundantly clear that she is knowledgable about training and loves all animals. We look forward to using her services again in the future!”
“I can’t recommend Lierin enough! She is extremely dependable, communicative, and adaptable to our changing schedules! She was also so accommodating and caring when when our poor guy was going through heartworm treatment. (She even checked in on him on the day of his treatment!) We were nervous leaving him during the day but it gave us such piece of mind knowing she was caring for our boy. Not to mention she sends you the BEST pictures of your pup every walk! I wish I could give her more stars!”
“Lila was great! I appreciated her flexibility with our schedule. Our tour of campus ended late and she was very gracious about being with Lilly until we got back. Our dog enjoyed her time with her and she took great care of her. Thank you Lila!”
“Candace was always on time and left detailed reports and took multiple pictures after each walk. Best Rover experience I’ve ever had. She will definitely be my go-to anytime I need a dog walker.”
“Emmalee has taken the time to get to know our dog and he has taken to her very quickly and he is a very sensitive soul so that speaks volumes! Really happy and relaxed knowing she is caring for him, would definitely recommend.”
“Jora was great! Both of our fur babies loved her immediately. She helped us on pretty short notice which was awesome, too! Jora kept us up to date with pictures & a sweet message during both her visits.”
About: From fish to birds, cats to dogs - animals have long been a part of my life. I’ve cared for many types of animals, all at various stages of their life. For me, caring for animals is understanding their personalities and tailoring their care to them. I currently work remotely/at home, making me potentially available during the week for visits, walks, or a watchful eye. Weekends may also be available, on a situational basis. My home has open areas for play or lounging, a fenced in back court area, and walk-able areas around town for fresh air. Within the clients home, I’m open to specific care rules and want to provide a consistent level of care the pet is used to.
“Sophie was great with Chef! Quickly responded to messages and gave Chef a great long walk even on a gloomy day. She was very detail oriented and gave great care to our big guy. Would love to have her spend time with Chef again.”
“Elizabeth is amazing with sunny, our Pomeranian. She gets him up and out of bed for his morning walk, and he can be grumpy to get up in the mornings. He likes her and doesn't bark as much as when other people come through the door. She's attentive to detail and so helpful. I fractured my ankle and she's helped sunny get in the morning walks he needs. Thank you so much!”
