“Suzie gives us so much peace of mind when we go on trips and have to leave our sweet babies behind. There’s no way we’d be able to enjoy ourselves as much if we didn’t have her looking after them. Our little Luna is now on daily medicine for her allergies so we were nervous to leave someone in charge of that but Suzie got her medicine in her just fine!”

Her thoroughness with what was needed and dedication to making the animals feel looked after while I was gone made my time away that much better.”

I am actually booking Abbey again very soon and feel confident that she will do another great and awesome job for us and give loving care to my Sasha kitty! This gives me peace of mind while we are away.”

You can really tell she loves animals and I never worried while we were away. Reliable, trustworthy, and excellent communications!”
“Kristine did an awesome job. Pokie, who is a very good boy enjoyed her taking care of him. I can tell in the photos. He also loved play time, although he is a lazy player.”
“Kiarra made drop-in visits for my two cats while I was out of town for 5 days. She stopped by before my trip so that we could go over everything and see where everything is at. She took notes during the initial visit. She was timely, communicative and respectful of my home. Additionally, both of my cats were warming up to her by the end of the week, which is a huge relief because they usually take a while to warm up to new people. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Nicole is amazing! This was our first experience with Rover and/or having someone take care of our dog that we didn't already know. Nicole was fantastic. She communicated well and always kept us updated. She fed, watered, medicated and walked him daily and sent us lots of pictures. He was so happy with her and so we're we!”
“Megan took great care of my cats while I was out of town. They can be a bit shy of new people but one of them started to warm up to her by the end of trip. She even swept the litter on the floor and took out the trash at the end. Thanks for taking care of my babies!”
