“Callie took great care of our furry family while we were out of town. She loves animals and ours loved her! Sent us pics while we were away which was a comfort. Really enjoyed vacation knowing they were in good hands!”
2. Melissa V.
“Melissa was awesome! She exceeded our expectations as first time Rover users and we would absolutely request her again in the future. She sent lots of pictures during her visits and was very detailed with her notes. Her communication was great and it allowed us to work out any hiccups with our pups in real time. She went above and beyond and even swept the dirt the dogs drug in while she was here. Her prices her also very reasonable. Don’t hesitate to book with her!”
3. Louis & Célia d.
“Quand Etienne et Célia étaient encore en France, je leur ai confié mes chiens a plusieurs reprises pendant mes vacances. Ils en ont toujours pris soins et se sont particulièrement bien occupés du plus vieux qui était malade. Je recommande pour leur sérieux et leur gentillesse !”
4. Anika R.
“Anika was very patient with our five fur babies. It is not always easy to find someone who can interact well with our cane corsos and pit bull. She was there on time to take our pups to the bathroom since they are all inside pups. I know I don’t have to worry about my dogs when Anika is taking care of them.”
5. Adrian V.
About: With over 2 years in local pet store experience, I am an advocate for dog health and a positive reinforcer and all around animal lover! I have 2 jobs and I do school but I love to be active and busy. I’m free after 6pm Monday-Thursday and free before 3:30pm Saturday and Sunday. I like to understand dog breeds and behavior. All dogs are different and it’s important to know what gets them to listen, what gets them excited, and angry.
6. Kathrine M.
“Kat does a great job with all animals, especially dogs. In high school, she raised dogs for Guild Dog for the Blind as her FFA Project. Her dog attended school with her everyday while it learned social skills and public manners. Kat attended weekly training meeting for several years and was dedicated to the training of each dog in her care. One of the dogs became a guide for a blind person and the another became a full-time therapy dog. Kat took the therapy dog to many therapy training meetings and became a training for new therapy dogs in the group. Kat and her dogs went on several therapy visits to libraries, schools, nursing homes, 12 Step recovery programs with therapy dogs, and she worked with the police department for crisis therapy care. For the last six years, Kat has been showing AKC Border Collies in AKC Shows and she has two Grand Champion Dogs. She is currently training two puppy Border Collies for competition at the present time. Since then, she has done several private dog trainings sessions, and dog sitting, both at her house and other people's houses. for many people. Kat is very knowledgeable about dog care and training techniques.”
7. Arianna R.
About: I’ve taken care of five different types of dogs from age 12 to now. My current dog is a Bernie’s Mountain dog mixed with a golden retriever. He is right under a year old, we have taught him some basic obedience and is fully potty trained. I enjoy his high energy which I get out with walks, long leach exploring and the dog park! I am genuinely thrilled to have the opportunity to take care take of your furry friend! I am available most weekends and I work a full-time job so Friday afternoons during the week. No time constraints to schedule within these days. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to play with my one other dog. As well as room for a crate and lots of toy and attention!
8. Gloria V.
“Gloria did a great job taking care of our 3 pups while we were out of town. She was great about asking questions when she needed to and she updated us each time she dropped in to care for them. I love that she played fetch with them and sent us photos. Will definitely use Gloria again. 😊”
9. Scott B.
“Scott noticed that one of my dogs dug out and got into my neighbors yard. He went all the way to put the dirt back in its place and then put down some barriers to prevent the digging until I got home. Scott goes above and beyond. Can’t say enough good things about him.”
10. Jenna M.
“Jenna took great care of my dog :). I got a lot of updates and photos throughout her checking on Z and my dog loved her. I would trust Jenna to watch Z again.”
11. Maribel B.
“Maribel cares for dogs as if they were her own. She’s professional, responsible, flexible, and provides personalized care. She provides updates and photos ensuring Ryder is in good hands.”
12. Tiffany W.
“I sometimes accuse Tiffany that she cares more for her dog than her own human family members! She is always the first to make sure her own dog is being cared for, if not by herself, by only those she trusts, and knows. Of course most of the time she is the one that always has her dog by her side and will walk her dog all the time although she never goes on a walk by herself. Her dog gets the best food, toys, and all the attention - to the point that we sometimes feel her life is consumed by a 4-legged animal as opposed to us 2-legged humans! She is particularly most caring for those animals that may not be considered most popular or favorites.”
13. George M.
“GEORGE is very dependable. He has had cats and dogs all his life. He has watched my dog and my cat many many times I would highly recommend him.”
14. Santana D.
“Santana has always been so great and gentle with pets. She is attentive to their needs and will keep them safe. I would trust her with my fur baby, anytime!”
15. Ana R.
“Ana has done an amazing job in taking care of my two dogs. I have a morkie and a golden retriever. Ana asked great questions to make sure she would accommodate all of my dogs’ needs. After the first time I picked them up, they both seemed really happy. The second time she took care of the dogs, they were extremely happy to see her and had no issues staying with her. They were even greater with treats! Highly recommend.”
16. Sydney M.
“Sydney did a great job with our girl and communication was great. We got the perfect amount of pics and updates from Sydney while we were away”
17. Subrina R.
“subrina is an animal lover and loves to take care of them walk,bath,feed all of the above. She’s had experience from high school 2014 and continues to give genuine care for pets. I’d hire her with full trust and confidence to take care of my pet”
18. Madisen T.
About: I have experience of taking care of animals since I could drive! From horses, dogs, cats, horses, bunnies — pretty much any animal!! I’am comfortable with many (if not all) type of animal, small or big, young or old. I also have vet experience and am comfortable with doctoring or giving meds. I currently work part time, my usual hours are from 5am-12pm but it’s also completely flexible. Depending on your pets needs I can make any daily or weekly needs work. I make sure to ensure that your pet will stay safe, from watching it when it goes outside, to keeping it inside with me — especially on hot days!
19. Julie P.
“Io was very pleased. Gwyn was well taken care of and happy. It was nice to get picture updates. Would highly recommend to others.”
20. Clarissa V.
About: As a little girl, I was always known as the “animal whisper” as my family knew I had a special way with animals. I grew up around farm and house pet animals my whole life and always had a heart for taking care of my own animals. I went to school wanting to become a veterinarian, however, with my current situation, I have needed to change my aspiration and focus on what is important. I am currently doing school online, so it will not affect my ability to dogsit. I am also pregnant with my son, so by his due date I will have a tighter schedule. As my client, I will tailor to your needs in anyway you need me too. If there are any specific needs that the animals have, I will make sure to give them the attention they need. I am great with all types of animals and am happy to help in any way you need.
