“Anna was the perfect person to watch my pup while I was gone. She gave me thoughtful feedback and photo updates throughout the week. I could tell in photos and when I picked up my dog, Luna m, that she had a great experience!”
“Marissa is amazing and took such wonderful care of our little Uchi! It was our first time having someone outside of our family and friends care for him and we could not have been happier. Lots of pictures and updates and overall an amazing, seamless experience!”
“Elijah is totally on top of it- starting with a meet and greet, so I felt completely comfortable leaving Harry with him. Harry loves Zee Zee and was so happy to see her when I dropped him off. I know he was well taken care of, and he was a very happy boy when we picked him up! We’ll definitely check with Elijah anytime we need someone for Harry.”
“Aine communicated frequently and sent lots of pictures, videos and updates. Their dog is very friendly too and their home has a nice big yard for the dogs to play.”
“Fantastic caretaker for Suki! Sent us consistent updates and made sure to play with her a lot. Easily the most comfortable she has seemed in anyones place that we have chosen through Rover. Also bonus points for being Persian! ❤️”
“Patches is by far the best dog-sitter we’ve ever had. She obviously loves animals but she also took the time to reassure us by sending updates and pictures without us even asking. Drop-off and pick-up was a breeze. But, best of all, we could tell our pup was really happy, which made it so much easier to have to be away from him. Thank you, Patches! We’ll be using you again!”
“Madeline was so sweet with Lucy! She was quick to answer messages and sent photos and updates while I was out of town. I would absolutely reach out to her in the future!”
“I’m so incredibly grateful for Lauren. She’s perfect as always! She takes great care of my dog and always sends the cutest photos. I never have to worry when I’m away on vacation knowing my pup is with her. Thank you again, Lauren!”
“Gail’s home is ideal for a home away from home. There is a big backyard and a doggy door that allows for in and out access. Gail treated my dog like hers, she is very accommodating, detail oriented, organized, flexible, and kind. I would highly recommend.”
About: My husband Preston grew up a dog lover with his two yellow labs, and I am a new dog lover after we got our lovely boy Jet a couple of years ago. We are responsible and would love to take care of your fur baby like it’s our own! Preston grew up dog sitting for friends and family where as I have cared for many a friends dogs throughout the years! I am full time work from home with a flexible schedule. We typically bring our dog out i around 10 am and 6pm for about an hour each as well as 20 minutes around 2 and 10 pm but are available for more frequent walks as needed in addition to a backyard, balconies and toys and splash pad! We have 1 dog (2 year old ~60lb boy named Jet). We live near a park and him twice a day for long walks and frequent the greenbelt. We also have a nice backyard for the dogs to enjoy some fresh air! We have a two floor house if your dog needs to be crated or separated for meal/bed times happy to do that as well!
