6. Mackenzie T.

“My 2 cats were nervous and hid under the bed when she came to visit. She worked with them and spent time earning their trust. She sent pictures each day. and her communication relieved much stress from leaving my cats for a week.”


7. Sarah G.
About: I have extensive experience in taking care of pets of all kinds, especially geriatric pets. I am adept at medication administration and other special services that need to be provided. I am currently employed full-time M-F and can be available to be with your pet before and after work, as well as on my lunch break. I am available during weekends to let pets out in 2-4 hour intervals. I walk my pet daily, and feed them twice a day. I also give my pets interactive projects (kong, lick mats, games) and play indoors when weather prevents us from going outside.


8. Miranda Rose "Elliot" O.

“They were fantastic! It was our first experience with Rover, and they made it better than we ever expected. Exceptional communication and even helped celebrate our kitty’s birthday with him while we were gone. Got extra pictures too! We will definitely ask them to sit again in the future!”


9. Sadie J.
“Sadie was so helpful over the weekend dropping in on my dog to feed him and let him out while I was a work! She made everything so easy!”


10. Jennifer T.


“Jennifer went above and beyond in every way. We arranged for her to drop in throughout the day to care for our two dogs during our 10-day vacation, and when one of our dogs suffered several days of diarrhea (likely due to stress from our absence), she handled the situation with grace and ease; she cooked rice, stopped at the vet, and cleaned up a great deal of poop. She spoiled our dogs in the all the best ways, and we were able to relax on vacation knowing that they were in the most capable hands. Five stars are not enough!”


11. Amara L.


“Amara was great with my pets! They always seemed very content in the pictures and videos that Amara sent me while I was away on vacation. Amara was also very flexible and patient and very kind. My pets definitely seemed to love her! 😊”


12. Alydia N.

“Alydia always does such a wonderful job with our pups! Always goes above and beyond!”


13. Christina G.


“Christina was amazing!! Our little Charlie has had a tough few months since he lost his sister. It’s been quite an adjustment for him and when we would leave him, he would be so sad all the time. Christina did a drop in with him, and when we came home, he was a happy boy. She communicated very well with us, and when he met her for the first time he fell in love. I totally recommend her!!”


14. Tonie B.


“Tonie was amazing! Super nice and very flexible! It really made me feel better knowing she could help me get my pup out for some exercise and socializing while I was at work!! I would definitely ask her to help out again!”


15. Lydia H.


“Lydia did a great job watching Fiona! She was flexible and helped me adjust the time that I needed her services and guided me through the steps to extend her services which was very helpful!! She took care of our dog just like it was her own dog and we really appreciate that!!!”


16. Jailee F.
“Jailee is a responsible young adult who has a passion for caring for animals. She is my younger sister and we have grown up with animals our entire lives. I have seen her care for them and give them all the love and attention they deserve and need. She is a trustworthy person who will do anything to care for an animal. Jailee loves to help not only animals, but people as well. If someone needs something else done around their home while they are gone, I am sure Jailee would be willing to do it.”


17. Anahi D.
“Anahí is amazing with pets! She used to help me watch my dog Dulce when I’d have school. She’s the absolute best! Her Doggy Nova was truly loved 🥲💗🪽”


18. Jamie B.
“Where to begin? Jamie was WONDERFUL with my four legged child. One week before we were set to go on vacation, our family friend stated that he could no longer watch our bloodhound Annie. This threw me into a panic. Kenneling Annie was not an option, she is a very timid girl and I knew that a kennel environment would be very stressful on her. I reached out to Jamie four days prior to leaving for vacation and she excitedly agreed to watch Annie. Initially Jamie was going to watch Annie at her home. All was well at our initial meet and greet but when it came time to drop Annie off for the week, she got very depressed. She wouldn't eat, drink, or go to the bathroom. She just hunkered down in her cage. Jamie was very concerned and thoughtful, she agreed to transport Annie back to our house and then watch her from there. This was all coordinated while I was 400 miles away. Annie loved this arrangement. She returned to her typical self. Jamie sent me updates and pictures throughout the week putting my mind at ease. My husband at first was hesitant to have a non family member having access to our house all week but my intuition told me that Jamie was TOTALLY trustworthy. And my intuition was right. The next time we go out of town, I will not hesitate to contact Jamie! SHE WAS WONDERFUL!!!!!!!”


19. Samantha D.

“Samantha is such a great cat sitter, Tako is so lucky! Her updates are great, and communication and visits are top notch. We would definitely work with her again.”


20. Sumer F.

“Our first visit with Sumer was great! She checked in on our two dogs while we were away for the day and sent us pictures! We will definitely be using her again.”
