“Maggie was a great sitter and took excellent care of my fur babies. She even managed to charm my dog who doesn't like or trust strangers. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my canine kids were being well taken care of. Would book again and highly recommend.”
2. Kumiko P.

“I've only used Ciara as my Rover for my Pup and couldn't give a better review. Always sends multiple pictures of what Gracie is up to when she stops in. My dog always seems happy in the pictures and happy when I get home which is all I can ask for. She has also been very flexible when trips have gotten cut short or end up running long. Highly recommended!”

“Emilia took the best care of our pets and was very communicative! I felt very at ease knowing she was caring for our fur babies. Highly recommend her!”
11. Erin K.
“Erin has an incredible knack with with animals! When she took home two shy, fearful shelter cats who the shelter employees said would likely remain scared and timid, she was patient and worked with them consistently; now they are active and attractive boys who love their home and their human. Erin also adopted an older pup whose weight issues were impacting his health, and now he's a spry old man who loves going on walks and has energy to spare. She would be an excellent support to anyone looking for a calm and patient hand with their pets.”
