Thanks again Heidi!! Heidi took great care of our Lab Sam and our daughter’s Maltipoo Bruce during the holidays. We were able to enjoy our vacation worry free knowing Heidi had things covered at home.

Melissa took great care of our Bengal cat Diego as well as leaving our home in great condition! She was very communicative throughout the whole process and even took care of some recently-acquired plants that we did not have when we had her over for the initial walk through. We will definitely use her again!

An incredibly thoughtful, kind, thorough, and all-around fantastic dog-sitter. We hired Anthea to care for our two pups (one a young very timid yet somehow still energetic yorkie mix rescue pup, the other a geriatric parsons Russell terrier who is dealing with some doggie dementia), and she was incredible. Met both dogs where they were were at and went above and beyond in the care for the pups and the care for our home. Gave our pups lots of attention, exercise, and love; gave us detailed updates and lots of photos on how the pups were doing; and we retuned to a home in better condition than it was when we left for the weekend! The Mary Poppins of dog-sitters!

Analyss is amazing! We were in a pinch and needed a sitter for our pup Juniper - who can be a little anxious on her own. Analyss saved the day! Very communicative, chill and super sweet with our pup. We loved our updates, and came home to a happy puppy! We will definitely be calling Analyss first when we need a sitter! Highly recommend!

We all loved Renata, especially my dog, Mango. He was so happy and relaxed when we came home. Totally different attitude then when we pick him up from the kennel. Renata was a great pet-sitter and we will definitely use her again. We especially appreciate her flexibility of also helping with our chickens.

About: We had a family dog for two years where I was the primary caretaker, ranging from training, daily walks, feeding and play time. I was also needed by my neighbors when they were on vacation to check in on their pup by feeding and walking them daily. I’m currently working part time and am available in the evenings Tuesday-Saturday. Available anytime Sunday and Monday. Or in the mornings any of these days Every pet is different and will abide by your rules for the safety of your pet. I will check fences before letting your pet out so they don’t run away, and steer them clear of furniture if requested

Ellory came through on very short notice so that I could leave town to attend a memorial service. Obviously an emotionally taxing time, but I was able to relax and connect with family and friends knowing that Ellory was taking such great care of my two dogs and the house. I got plenty of photos and updates, and Ellory's communication before and during the stay was swift and thorough. When I returned, I found the dogs, house, and yard all doing well - if not better - than when I'd left. I'd 100% recommend Ellory!

Margot stayed with our girls for the weekend after we booked a last minute camping trip. She was great with our girls and took good care of our home. She made sure to keep us in the loop on all the happenings back home and sent pictures throughout the weekend. We will definitely be keeping Margot on our short list of Rovers for the next time we head out of town.
