1. Michael B.
“Michael was great with Rocky. My father had hip surgery two weeks ago so it's a load of stress off my mind that we found someone that can help when my brother or myself are not available. Michael was prompt and professional and sent pics while out on their walks. Rocky really likes him! Will definitely be using again! Thanks Michael!”

6. Katrina G.
“We couldn’t recommend Katrina more! Not only did our dog love her, she was great at communication and always let us know if there was anything she noticed or was concerned about while she walked and checked in on Nutmeg. It was a relief to know that she was in good hands while we were at work.”
7. Sophie F.

11. Brittany & Mico K.
“This was our first time using Rover and we could not have been happier with the service we received from Brittany. She really does seem to love dogs and our dog took to her right away. She came in advance to get instructions for the day and wanted to make sure she had the instructions correct. Brittany arrived on time the day of the service. She completed all the tasks asked of her, sent wonderful pictures of our pet to us so we could see he was being taken good care of and sent a comprehensive report of the visit right after. Brittany also response extremely quick when contacted. We would definitely recommend and user Brittany's services again.”
